Alright lets get straight into this !
Spiral knights an amazing free to play game that has not let me down for a long time when the new heating system (forge) came out i thought it was pretty cool until later on it becomes very annoying spending money on crystals and alchemy orbs OR you can go do missons and hope you will get what you are looking for to craft your gear.Lets not forget this new revive system is really making sk not a FTP game but insted its now becoming a pay to play game (Even though we dont pay for elevators anymore comon its unfair to many players)

OK LET ME FIX WHAT I ORGINALLY SAID because some people REALLY do not understand my point
THE FORGE SYSTEM is basically trash YES im anti depot NO im not new here
What im trying to get at IS THE FOLLOWING sk was MUCH better back then missons gave you more crown and heat (MORE CROWN SO YOU CAN BUY WHAT YOU NEED) Now you go and hope for the best to find ALCH orbs or CRYSTALS its a hassel theres no work into that Think of it in this way.

If you offer a man a free life or offer him a life of hardwork which will he take ? OBVIOUSLY THE FREE LIFE spiral knights REQUIRED more hardwork then it does now. but the forge system IS an annoyance to me personally
Although as time passes the updates usually get better these 3 things make spiral knights one annoying game...
TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!?

Leave a reply saying WHAT YOU WOULD THINK sk should change! its at least worth trying to catch the attetion of SK.

"TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!?"

I think you must be new here.

Move this thread to the suggestions sub-forum.

"1-Removing alchemy orbs and brining back CE crafts"

Buy orbs of alchemy from the supply depot.

"2-Removing forge crystals"

No. Forge is there for a reason.

"3-finding more spark of lives (other then being a once in a blue moon thing)"

Play on elite mode.

This belongs in Suggestions?

What I think--

1. No, sorry. You can get them from the Supply Depot for the same price as CE Crafting.
2. Nope, I personally like the Forge system. The only thing I don't like about it is the lack of Radiants and the excess of Glowing.
3. Coming from someone who just got 8 Sparks of Life in 3 runs, I'm gonna say no to this too.

If I were to change one thing, I'd say fix the forge. Not remove it, just fix it.

Whimsicality

The "Former glory" days in which Firestorm Citadel was the optimal place for heat, crowns, and any kind of drop you would ever need in the game. The "former glory" days in which a disgusting amount of the playerbase doesn't even go through their missions because they had a Vanguard friend let them hitch a ride through Firesnore Grindadel. The "former glory" days in which you don't have the option to craft stuff with Orbs of Alchemy that you find for free and are given for free from certain missions and did I forget to mention that they are completely free if you are so uptight about 'pay to play'. The "former glory" days in which we were limited to doing 2 Vanaduke runs a day, and if we spent any more mist to revive, and didn't have enough crowns to buy energy, well you're out of luck. The former glory days in which a knight can possibly buy their way to 5* gear without even going into the Arcade or missions past Rescue Camp.

Yeah. Let's totally go back to that.

Heh.

1. Have you looked at the supply depot? Guess how much orbs cost there. (Spoiler: the old CE costs).
2. If they remove these, we obviously cannot heat any items any further. This would be a horrible suggestion.
3. Blue moons must be fairly common around here. You don't have to always fight the dangerous areas, die, and complain that you don't have enough sparks. In fact, I got plenty of sparks last week with the diamond rook gate (that just disappeared yesterday) since it had 3 arenas (51 boxes each) in stratum 3. Guess what? I also got a ton of orbs too.

I think they should change 0 of those 3.

Supply depot is there to support the game.

Orbs, sparks, and forge crystals are all available in the Supply Depot.

Good joke. Go into comedy.

1. Hey, here's an idea. The orbs are the same prices if you buy them from the Depot. Or are you 100% anti-depot?

2. ...Really...The forge was put in there so newbs couldn't just go 0* to 5* in the flap of a hummingbird's wings.

3. The RNG hates your guts, and simply doing the Arcade (Wink wink nudge nudge) should net you tons of Sparks.

In other words, no.

No.No.No.

Another one of these threads again... Sirius I need your tally book.

1. How about you actually pay antention to things eh? Or are you too blinded with rage and poorly thought ideas?
2.Sure! How about we let that happen! Oh look! My alt just went from rescue camp to the 5* HoH! What a suprise! And in one day!
3. This one is the only one that is somewhat good. And still no. FSC isn't the best for sparks. And you shouldn't be wasting sparks. If you are, play normal.
*Sigh Looks like you are new in town. This wasn't a good intro.

I just, Hmmm.... This vid link won't work as well here as it does on radiant crystal threads about bringing them back...

All i can say is:

Put in max crystals. All the time.

About alchemy orbs well... 4*

About alchemy orbs well... 4* orbs are the rarer for me, so it's kinda annoying when I need to craft a 4* thing, but it's much better than CE crafting (since you can FIND those orbs, and can't find CE)

Yeah Forge and Forge crystals.. Forge is a new and benefic system: now we have always a +25% heat chance, and we can win forge prize box now! (In them we always find a FREE UV ticket and some Life Sparks so... it's a REALLY GOOD thing!) BUT! I don't like how Radiant crystals minimal level drop chance has changed... Before a wonderful update called HALLOWEEN, I was used to find radiant at +24 depth (so we had a lot of radiant in the treasure level of the hard daily missions) but now, surprise: since Halloween update, the only place where we can find Radiant is depth 28, and NO WHERE ELSE! (even in ELITE difficulty it's hard to find radiant at vana's end or in the treasure vault level depth 28...)

Let me explain: 5* weapons start to be useful at depth 25 (don't believe me? try to block a wolver attack with the spike shower (4* bomb) at depth 25, you can't, but with the Dark Briar Barrage (same bomb, 5*) you can!), so WHY we can't find radiant crystals since the 25 depth? Or maybe set the radiant drop level at depth 26! so we won't be frustrated to play T3 arcade for hours just for getting 3 poor radiant...

Finally here we are with the life sparks.. You know how I saw the LS income? I saw it as the biggest scam of all time! Just think about it: A newbie start the game, he's not so good, and he uses a lot of LS (no skill / Lag / Any other reason). Than he have no more LS so he got 3 choices:
- Asking for a friend to come and revive him (cost: 50 CE / 1 LS)
- Buying his own revive (cost: 50 or 100 CE depending on how he buy his LS)
- Buying CE with real money just for LS (cost: $)

The last revive system was much more better!
- Asking for a friend to come and revive him (cost: 0 CE, just a half life bar)
- Buying his own revive (cost: 10 CE the 1st revive, 20 CE the 2nd revive, 40 CE the 3rd ==> this make 70 CE for THREE revives)

In a 4 player party, it's sounds like this:
- Before: 100 CE => 3 players revived 2 times + 1 player revived 1 time / 1 player revived 3 times + 3 players revived 1 time (and remembre: IF AND ONLY IF everyone is dead, since we were able to revive with our health bar)
- Now: 100 CE => 2 players revived and that's all.

I let you guess which reviving system is the best...

P.S.: Forgive me if I made some mistakes in this thread, English is not my 1st language :)

"Leave a reply saying WHAT YOU WOULD THINK"

I think threads about the forge and crystals are boring. No offense. Have you ever seen the threads before this?
