It would be so nice if there were a section of the wiki where players could make a page for their knight.

I still see a lot of my images in the accessories section of wiki - that used to be so much fun.

Hi there, kids. Presso here, and today I’m going to drop a few brainstorming bombs on you guys. I’ve recently picked up Spiral Knights again (I stopped right before Blast Network came out), and I’ve been thinking…

So, without further ado, I’ll list out the stuff that I brainstormed over the last week or so.

1) New Status Conditions?
2) Prestige Bosses
3) Ignition
4) Early-game weapon rework

1) NEW STATUS CONDITIONS

Lifesteal

Here's some mechanics I'd like to see:

A gun that jumps to hit two enemies, similar to those quills, at the cost of doing around 55%-65% damage.

A gun that, on hitting an enemy, queues that enemy to take damage as soon as a different enemy is hit. Should deal a bit of extra damage to reward the complicated aiming, maybe 10%?

A gun that picks up any loot it shoots over. Attack pattern should be at least similar to a Pulsar with a clip of one, so it can pick up a whole lump of treasure without being spam-able.

Ok, as we know it right now, LD is EXTREMELY unbalanced. From game breaking mechanics to invincibility frames, LD is just a mess. So I have come up with a few ideas to help balance it.

STRIKER:

Right now, striker is probably the most OP class there is. This is all due to the insane amount of damage and speed that you get for a small price. Here is what i propose:

I've come up with an idea for *see title*
first one:
Nerdy: black to gray colored with math symbols floating around + - % etc.
Farmers: Wheat yellow colored with ears of corn heads of wheat and scythes

I would like to see a Shadow Aura developped.
Or some kind of aura of darkness.
I think it would look awesome. Like this black misty fog that swirls around you.

What you think?

So I think that everyone has seen this thing where the cords of any magic hood always bug out and blend in and out for some seconds, then everythings fine and then it happens again. I know it's not a huge bug or something that makes the game unplayable but I often wear magic hoods as costumes and it really annoys me so I would be happy if you could fix this in the next patch.

I think it would be nice if there a expansion where you play a gremlin.
Like the normal game but with other weapons, story and (for example) Emberlight as your base.

What do you think about that ?

As the title says, we're going to play with the sword and the swarm today. You see, the fact of the matter is, one sword stands out like no other in the game. The Faust/Grand Faust. The dark half of the Avenger/Divine Avenger. The only weapon in the game that can inflict curse. Pretty significant. But what if there was more than what we knew?

THE SWORD: The changes to the Sealed Sword: A third upgrade tree. A key.
