in Danger Missions is commonplace, because they're so difficult.
So! Speculation about the next Danger Mission down the line, anyone? I'm thinking the next one will be related to Beasts or Gremlins, since those monster families haven't had the focus of a Danger Mission yet. Or maybe a specific status effect will get the limelight?
Good point. Come to think of it, Three Rings does still have that "overarching storyline" they mentioned somewhere a while ago that Razwog was a part of. What does that artifact do... maybe a new boss will know?
Well we know for the fact that the Artifact is in fact a sponge for power as it drained all the power from the rescue camp before we removed it from the generator. I think currently the line up of danger mission monster families and statuses combos are: Undead,No Status; Undead/Construct,Shock; Fiend/Beast,Freeze; Gremlin/Slime,Poison/Fire; and Gremlin,Ice(Available During Winterfest).
I reckon a Beast themed Danger Mission would be a hoot (get it?!). HoI does have beasts, but I wouldn't really call it a Beast Danger Mission rather than a Danger Mission that happens to feature a number of Beasts. Not sure why, I just don't see them as the predominant factor, possibly because the hardest rooms and major "threats" are all fiend related and even the boss is in the flavour of a giant trojan. The Beasts just seem very tagged on.
I'd like to see a mission that actually revolves around them more.
Although I say that and my mind is shifting dramatically towards Snarbolax Lair.
Maybe I just want a foresty Danger Mission and think that Beasts would be the best suited baddy....
Oh, actual speculation rather than fantasies? Not a scooby, no. Probably something to do with monsters.
For a second, i thought this was a 'Spiral Knights IS dying' thread again.
About your question, I don't have any idea.
I vote for a shark boss danger mission combined with new ranged beast enemies. I can't think of anything for the latter part that matches the theme though. (No not polyps)
It is not dying, if it was why do you think hundreds of thou-
Oh wow, it's NOT one of those.
Well, Heart of Ice includes beasts in it, and Compound 42 contains gremlins, so I'm not very sure on what the next one will hold. Hopefully they permanently add Grinchlin Assault instead of adding a new one. It's fun as hell.
OH, I get the joke. Simple, we are knights who are spiral. Therefore, we're "Spiral Knights". Next, "dying (and the first part of the OP)" meaning that we are dying IN a danger mission. xD
Back on topic. I think that OOO should make more monster families with different monster families combination (Such as Undead and Ghosts for Legion of Almire, etc.).
Actually, he was trolling us on the title.

@OP
The purpose of danger missions is not really to solo them.You have to choose a good party and plan it out or else it's just sparks being used up like fireworks.
Slap a dorsal fin on a blue reskinned gun puppy.
Bing bang boom. New enemy.
Exploring a dragon cave would be a fresh change.
Beasts are broken at the moment, but appear in HoI. Gremlins have Festive Hell-Mountain.
I'd rather there be more boss stratums with shadow lairs as opposed to having yet another cycling mission. What's wrong with permanence?
