In recent months, more of the active/avid players of Lockdown have started using guns more frequently than in previous years. Striker is the most popular class among the higher "skilled" players, since it gives speed with it's shield boost, and medium sword damage and speed to cap off their UVs and/or armor bonuses to max. They have incredible speed compared to other classes and sword buffs to boost their sword play more.

Simple, more restrictions more loot,

The challenge layout would be a number of buttons spread out on a grid like the console on the ready room and its just a number of restrictions

This would utilize the loadout system in order to serve as a gate keeper( got this idea by looking at the loadouts effectiveness gauge)

Players would only be able to join at the beginning and at the terminals(to prevent loopholes) (towns will be replaced by terminals)

This option is given upon unlocking tier 3, maybe some kind of mission

+ refers to a positive loot modifier

There's so many promotion boxes in the game that it's nearly impossible to get items from a box released even a year ago. Items just fade out of existence because the number of boxes added into the game is finite and the people holding those items either don't wanna give em up or they quit the game, putting their inventory in purgatory. I have a solution!

So I just realized we don't have Toasty, Regal, Military, Cool, Fancy, Dusky, and Divine versions of generic costumes! Grey Havens, please add these into the game. When I say generic costumes I mean like:

Cuirass, Culet, Draped Armor, Flak Jacket, Fur Set, Plate Set, Tailed Helms, etc. I know some of them are available from the character select screen but you never get to have another one at any point in the game!

So there's a fifth unused Arcade Gate slot. What if we had an infinite arcade gate? Once you reach Depth 28 it'll start linearly scaling the rewards and difficulty of each level. Depths in this gate will be called "Levels" after depth 28. The catch is that you only get 1 emergency revive after passing Depth 28! Every level you play in this gate will be 100% completely randomized, no run will be the same! The rewards cap out at Level 50, which provides roughly 10kcr per level completed, enemies will only be dropping Gold Crowns.

Instead of just showing crown count and materials gained, why not:
separate rarities, crowns, materials, minerals, and whatever else you pickup into their own categories
show damage dealt? If you can do it in ld, why not in other gamemodes too?
deaths, time spent dead, sparks used
More info about a run could be a fun thing to have.

Good day/afternoon/night.
I have come to write a suggestion about the scenario of Spiral Knights.
Various levels, and depths of the Clockworks have been mesmerizing, involving the gamers.
I had one idea, and thought if the creators of Spiral Knights could create a new kind of envinronment; aquatic levels and missions. The water flowing along fountains on Haven seem incredibly beautiful and simple, and I humbly suggest if there is a possibility for the creators to build aquatic adventures.
With all due respect, from Blue-Moony

There's nothing more annoying than trying to communicate with your fellow knights in a harsh mission and blinding yourself and others due to having a massive speech/chat/text bubble above your head when you send a message.
I still consistently have problems with this, we have chat history and speech bubbles aren't necessarily needed, it would be a massive quality of life if we were given the option to disable these vision blockers.
I see that names can be tinkered with while around other players, may we have options for speech bubbles?

Here's my 5 suggestions;
First, take a look to mixmaster and make it fair.
Second, fix the bugs commonly used in specific maps.
Third, add massive raid battles with many players.
Fourth, add some diversity between knights for their play style.
Fifth, more end game content "without creepers ofcourse because they are so annoying... ".

What would be your 5 suggestions to future of SK, please share your ideas in below! :)

Skill expression is a defining factor in the strength of guns in spiral knights. Magnus charges depend on knockback manipulation. Tortogun charges depend on knockback and usage of the invisible projectile, and alchemers depend on angles. Autoguns benefit from close range and flinch timing, and pulsars depend upon where its used and how frequently. Two guns lack any major way to tell apart a good player and a not so good player: mixers and catalyzers. A way in which skill can be expressed when using these guns can attract more people to practicing more engaging and expansive playstyles.
