I've been using a sprite perk which gives me +2 HP, but I was wondering if certain perks would be better in the right level themes.

Would it be better to switch +2 Hp for...

Low normal defense increase
Low elemental defense increase (in gremlin and construct levels)
Low piercing defense increase (in beast and slime levels)
Low shadow defense increase (in fiend and undead levels)

Low fire resistance increase (in fire levels)
Low shock resistance increase (in shock levels)
Low freeze resistance increase (in freeze levels)
Low stun resistance increase

Hey, so I've just finished the Snarbolax mission and I'm noticing that the difficulty level goes up dramatically, probably because I've only played the campaign on elite. Is there a strategic way of getting through the missions such as playing them on normal, because I think that may be too easy. What would be the best/time efficient way of completing missions?

Hey,

So I am incredibly new to the game, and new to modern MMOs in general. (Haven't really been playing online games since Ultima Online in the late 90s.) Whats the best way of joining up with some friendly faces here if I don't have any real life friends into the game?

Why is there so much empty space on the battle sprite screen? Is there some kind of battle sprite booster that lets me use more of something (maybe perks)? Will I unlock more perks later to fill those places?

If a damaged silkwing finds a gremlin mender, can the mender heal the wing?

Is it even possible for silkwings and menders to be in the same room together?

I would like to ask if anyone knows the tiers that I can find the different crystals and orbs so I can correctly farm for them.

Hey guys! I recently rejoined the game, and it looks amazing. I'm somewhat addicted, aha. However, there are still a reasonable amount of questions that have been hindering my gameplay, I'd love some answers!

1. The Haven is just 5 maps? Or is there more to explore / discover?
2. Can someone link me to an achievement guide?
3. Is the 'core' just 1 randomly changing dungeon? Is end-game gameplay good?
4. Alchemy, what's this!

I'm also looking for new friends! I'm super happy to dungeon with anyone~

I finally got a gamepad, and I've been playing Spiral Knights on a gamepad for a while now, but my control scheme is a little bit uncomfortable.
The gamepad I'm using is a Wii U Pro Controller https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii_U_Pro_Controller

This is the control scheme that I'm using right now:
Left Analog Stick - Moving and Facing
D-pad - Quickslots
Select - Toggle Map
Start - Toggle Windows
A - Attack/Action
B, Y, & X - Sprite Skills
ZL - Strafe
ZR - Defend
L - Modifier
R - Switch Weapons

I want a better, more comfortable control scheme. Any suggestions?

Found this on the wiki, but can't find the progress tab. Help?

Not a new recruit and I don't plan on opening a guild (soon, anyway), but still -

Can players demote other players of their own rank? If not, can GMs ever be demoted?
