So with this patch removing the way to deposit minerals, I guess I will eternally be stuck at 59/60 achievements for the game. The frustrating part about this is, because I worked so hard to get all the other ones achieved, I wanted to go for 100% on the game. But now this is no longer possible.

"Master Miner
Deposit 10,000 minerals into a gate."

That is the last one I need. And considering I unlocked Marvelous Miner(2,500 minerals) on Unlocked: Jul 8, 2011. I figured I have to be pretty close at this point, does anyone at Spiral Knights have anything to say on how this achievement can possibly be done at this point? I would greatly appreciate it and really like to know.

Seems like I'm stuck at 59/60 forever as well. If only I knew...
New handguns, trinket boxes, name changes, Skylark - those petty features all have leaked somehow on forum, but the most crucial information haven't.

Oh well, we can start some sort of Anonymous Non-Master-Miners group to support each other in her/his misery.

Solution?

I wouldn't be surprised if they made the achievement for acquiring minerals, instead of depositing.

Not that I care, I got Master Miner 24/2/12 >:P

#4 I hope a video game

#4 I hope a video game company doesn't have the same attitude toward the situation that you do toward their customers, why set up achievements you can no longer achieve? Not really a good decision to make. Who cares how long it was available, people have different lifestyles, a company should account for that.

The current arcade set up is just a temporary solution until they can polish and implement their final version into the game.

"This includes significant changes to the Arcade experience and does not represent our intended final design for the Arcade Redux. However, this update is important to both set the stage for future revisions as well as provide a faster solution for the current overabundance of themes resulting from valestone and moonstone deposits."

This, and the fact that they just moved the gates out of view instead of deleting them implies that this is just a quickfix, and minerals may still be useful in the final version.

I don't have the mecha knights one yet. I still refuse to get it.

And after all it is part 1 of the arcade redux. They might bring back depositing minerals.

Ah well, we'll see what they do. I'm hoping that the final form of the arcade will let us achieve it somehow. For now then, I'm actually stuck at 58/60 (because Lockdown is scary and I haven't gotten in for Son of a Nutcracker yet)

59/60

I'm stuck too, and was rather annoyed when minerals become usable... dang sprites are so hungry all the time...

I hope they just remove the achievement... then we will all be at 59/59! I've been trying for 100% for soooo long now. That's what I get for going solo 90% of the time.

LoLz Im at 58/60 Achievement

I'm missing Travel from Top to Bottom and from Top to Bottom w/o dying.
I did that 10,000 mineral deposit loooong time ago.

Devs might replace that achievement with something else. Like "defeat the Tortodrone."

@ Destructioonn

Getting to 10,000 minerals isn't impossible. I'm actually not sure how i managed to overlap you. You earned Marvelous Miner before i did. I'm assuming you simply forgot to deposit the minerals or perhaps you took an extended break from the game.

I registered to play SK back on June 14, 2011.

For a time, i didn't run very much, i spent most of my mist crafting and when i wasn't crafting, i was trading TF2 items.

Finally on September 26, 2011, i got to 2500 minerals. At this point, i regularly began playing through my mist. And by December 2, 2011, i got to 10,000 minerals.

So in just over 2 months, i earned 7500 minerals.

Now that i think about it, i'm mostly a solo player, so my mineral total was usually smaller than other players.

This is an easy fix.

This would be a relatively easy fix for OOO to perform, as long as they get the mind to actually do it.
Just change up the requirements for the achievement is all.

For "Walk It Off", just change it from "Revive a downed party member, giving them only half a pip of health." to "Revive a downed party member with a Spark Of Life." Overall it wasn't a difficult achievement, just a situational one. It's not a huge milestone either, so it doesn't NEED to be difficult.

For the five "Miner" achievements, they could do two things depending on how difficult they want them to be.
Either go for total minerals acquired over time, or total minerals held in your inventory at once.
The latter option would be more difficult, but also wouldn't be necessary.
These are just simple progression achievements anyway, just turn them from "deposited" into "collected."

You can argue that "They need to focus on important things first", but lets be honest here, they have already changed
plenty of things that were FAR more difficult for them to do that had very little valuable gameplay impact.

I am at 59/60 because I don't

I am at 59/60 because I don't have the one where I need both trinks+weapon slots filled. The one drawback of being trinkless. Seriously considering getting them for one month just to get that achievement.
Edit: Also, kudos to whoever soloed the travel D0-D29 (Dauntless Delver) BEFORE mist was removed. And I only made 17.4k from my run. :<

@Poetry

You definitely played more than me. Going from T2 to T3 was very time consuming as I was F2P at the time and I remember spending a ton of time around the AH when it came out rather than playing due to only being on mist. When I first got to T3, managed to get a Sun Silver while dodging the extremely glitch rocket puppies, and then selling it for 20k cr... good times. Swordstone at 600-1000cr a piece was probably the best.

Marvelous on July 25, 2011.
Master on December 9, 2011.

&I got Dauntless Delver on March 22, 2012... I usually played recklessly with health revives. :3

One of the devs (bluntly) explained their position on it earlier. Please don't necro threads before googling the countless threads there have already been about the subject.

First: The Thread you linked

First:

The Thread you linked is closed.

Second:

This is the first thread you will get if you type in google "Broken Achievements + Spiral Knights", so, please!

Third:

This issue is not over yet!

The Devs see it wrong. Old player can keep their achievements ingame, but Steam have to be free from these unobtainable achievements. Its like Torchlight 2. There are 4 broken achievements too and people want to get rid of them since 2 years, because they want their "perfect game".

These 6 achievements are not obsolete, they are BROKEN! To hide them is a bad method. I just cant understand their point. A lot of achievement hunters left the game or will not touch it therefor.
