and some few silly things. Take a look at it?
http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Blitz_Needle_at_Clockworks

Sorry for the spellings/grammars, not fluent in english.
And look how lazy I am, those videos are with old UI and I was lazy to write a good english format to make it in time.

cool

You seem to have some good insights. I would like to see more player guides like this. :)

Here's one suggestion. Much of this page is not about Blitz Needle, but just about general SK advice. For example, "Dealing with Monsters" doesn't mention Blitz Needle, and suggests shocking mecha knights. So, as you continue working on this guide, consider reorganizing a bit, or even splitting the page into multiple pages.

Okay, here's another suggestion. Many players have limited patience for reading long documents. Therefore, try to make your guide as short as possible, while still saying everything that you feel is necessary. (If you read my sword guide, you find that it has a very terse style, because I am constantly trying to make it shorter.) Organization can help with this problem too: If a reader already knows how flinching works, but wants to learn Blitz Needle tricks, then organize your guide so that they can find the part they want quickly.

sorry to hear it

It does take a lot of work to polish a guide --- at least as much work as writing the first draft, and probably more like 10 times the work. That's why the wiki and forums are littered with half-baked guides. Consider opening up your guide to the community, so that anyone can edit it. Then you'd be using the real strength of the wiki idea. Cheers.

technically yes, culturally no

Technically, anyone can edit any page on the wiki. But personal pages are kind of regarded as the personal property of their owners. So very few people will dare to edit your personal page. To fix this, either (A) move the page out of your personal space --- I don't know where --- or (B) put a big notice at the top saying that others should edit it.
