I haven't got access to the game, the wiki does a bad job at updating, and with no induvidual pages on the missiom, it's annoying, And with no info about GitM or HoH, I'm stumped.
Screenshots of some lore giving text and info would be nice.
Why is Maulos doing what he's doing?
Why is he there?
What is the Big iron?
And other questions based on it.
HoH? Hall of Heroes? Did you mean Heart of Ice? There is extensive and hilarious flavor text in HoI. If I remember correctly, Maulos is a renegade devilite employee, who accumulates huge amounts of workers and weaponry under his control, despite many memos telling him to stop.
At the end of Ghosts in the Machine, there are space suits apparently designed for knights of the Spiral Order. One of the onlookers comments that the suits have been sitting there for hundreds of years. So there is some weird time-warping going on? The spirits of these deceased knights are inhabiting the constructs and making them attack the party?
Basically, we need someone to copy down the flavor text from these missions, and post it on the wiki.
Edwward, there is gobs of good stuff on the wiki. For example, your fellow knights have laboriously collected damage data for most weapons against most monsters at most levels of the Clockworks. Don't dwell on the user and guild pages. Also, if you really care about editing, just make an account through the web site and use it to edit the wiki? It takes maybe one minute? We could use more editors.
ON TO YOUTUBE!
......Cuz my computer's being a douche.
Dead battery.
BSOD.
Again, I didn't want to go through the convoluted process of having to represent myself through an alternate account. I'd really like to help out, but even then I'm not even sure to begin. While the weapons and gameplay mechanics pages are very well-polished and updated every now and then, I feel that the Wiki is significantly lacking in any substantial detail about the plot or recent advances in the game. It doesn't quite look like many of its current editors seem to care either. Just take a quick look at the "Recent Changes" log and tell me I'm wrong.
If I ever do get the chance, maybe I will consider cleaning up a little bit. But in its current state, it feels like it's just too much to take care of for a few people.
Edwward, now I understand that you were commenting specifically on plot. I do agree that the wiki is lacking in plot. It seems that the players of this game don't care much about plot in general. If they did, then they wouldn't keep playing the game, because the developers don't seem to exert much effort in developing and resolving coherent plot arcs. Instead, we get tiny fragments of disconnected story through NPC exposition, danger missions, and Echo Stones. Well, all we can do is hope for better in the future. Cheers.
I mean, I made a Spiral order page and help seems to be non existant.
Also, Now that my PC had to get files deleted, I need all flavour text boxes from ALL danger missions.
Please?
- Legion of Almire: Just an Almirian mausoleum, with a datalog of some high ranking member who commited suicide to not fall to Vog's curse.
- Compound 42: A disposed facility that was a lab from Herex, one of the Crimson Order. The slimes there are the (uncontrollable) result of his experiments.
- Heart of Ice: Devilites make a contract with Maulos, an old Ice Fiend. Maulos and the devilites don't understand eachother, but Maulos gets a lil army from his petitions anyway that gets subdued by the Knights who were sent - you. Also seems that he was going to unleash winter in the Clockworks with a pillar made of crystalized souls.
- Ghosts in the Machine: An old facility where some race of knights were experimenting to send their minds into Constructs with Matrix-like devices. The results were:
1. Body: Rotten and made a Zombie or reduced to dust.
2. Conscious: Those garbled bits of data. Seem to gather the "good" part of the old knights due to their "truth" messages. They fly away like Snipes too.
3. Subconscious: The Constructs there. They just act like (intelligent) territorial beings, and send the "fake" and "menacing" messages.
That seems to be it. And well, that a Recon team sends us intel, those guys at the lobby.

While it sounds like it could make sense, how much of this is just speculation?
To be honest, I haven't quite been able to pay much attention to it myself.
The Wiki's broken; it's been that way for some time, now...It's extremely rare that you may find anything of value on it, except for countless people blathering on about their Loadouts or "SUPARH AWESUM GUILDZ!!!!!!". They put such little emphasis on the actual story and game itself, the whole thing has just hollowed out into a userbase for those who want take the wiki for their own personal blogs.
Additionally, those with Steam accounts in SK such as myself still aren't allowed to make changes to it. So wiki editing is pretty much exclusive to those who're registered through the main site, or people who go out of their way and take the time to create an alt. account.
