Hi there guys! My name is Mister Master The and I'm going to teach you everything I can about being an apprentice, like me! As you know, the apprentice is a rank! Ok so after some long research here are some tips.

Work Your Way Towards Proto Sword.

Work your way towards Proto Gun

Work your way towards Proto Bomb

Great! But now let's take it to the next level! I've maxed out all of my Proto set with some great UVs and you can too! Just sell everything you ever get that's not Proto and save up for UV tickets. Bopp's sword guide can be useful but is actually deceptive. All you really need is Proto! Hope to see you all in lockdown! Feel free to ask more questions!

Yes Krakob?

I need help in obtaining my Proto Gun. I cannot find any crowns to make it. Where would I find crowns? Where can I find enemies? Where can I find the Core? Where can I find Waldo? Are Light Shards rare?

@USvn

Well, as an apprentice usually spend most of my time showing off in the training hall. I got my Proto gun from draining my credit card and am now a happy user of the Proto set! Hope this helps!

Well actually, Krakob made his thread to parody ZEDDY.

Zeddy: Hi guys! I'm Zeddy, and I'm a Shadow Defender. As you all know from perusing Hall of Heroes, a Shadow Defender is one of the 9 classes of Spiral Knights. (Striker, Gunslinger, Bomber, Specialist, Cobalt Knight, Guardian, Elemental Defender, Shadow Defender and Piercing Defender), and I have gone down the very equally valid path of being a Shadow Defender, because shadows sound pretty cool, dude. Here's my guide:

-Work your way towards a Dread Skelly Mask.
-Work your way towards a Dread Skelly Suit.
-Work your way towards a Dread Skelly Shield.

This is all there's to it! Hope I helped! Shadow Defenders don't have anything to do with weapons. We mostly just walk in front of other players and shieldbump enemies away from teammates and block bullets a lot. You might think we should use flourishes and brandishes to deal with shadow enemies, but that's the job of Strikers and Cobalt Knights.

As a firm Proto-user: can I use a Hot Edge or a Bolted Edge?
Both of them say that they are still Proto Swords, just changed a bit.

I don't even think I was the first to copy Zeddy.

Ahhhh, just another example of a lost knight. Let me explain, it's not a Proto sword, UNLESS ITS GREEN!!!!! Thank you very much!!!! Hope this helps!

Is DVS a Proto Sword?

Nethergrim

@ Krakob Of Course Not!!!!!!!!!!!

That's why it's called DVS, not Proto sword. It is only a failed attempt at Proto sword, as is every other bomb, gun and sword in the game.

I heard the Proto Sword is a limited time promo item. Is that true? I hear it's really expensive nowadays.

I feel like Trats has not seen enough of Spongebob to know what he's doing.

@Krakob

I comprehend that you intend to do a joke or refer to Spongebob. But I was just talking with 5pi, because he said "We all know the answer here, just making sure you know it". How can he/she doubt of the Master's knowledge? The Master is the master. He is knight with the highest wisdow. How can someone doubt of the Master? I don't believe that people do such things.

And I don't believe that people actually don't fulfill Spongebob references.

@Krakob

I really have other preferences above of Spongebob. This end up on don't seeing Spongebob. If 5pi's comment have any reference to Spongebob, sorry, I don't get it.

Well I made a derp. Thought you were OP but I guess not.
Interestingly enough, OP hasn't posted since your first post in this thread. COINCIDENCE?

@Krakob
Problaby not. People certainly ran from Master's pupil's rage.

@OP
I would like to say that anyone can make questions to the Master to solve your doubtfulness.
But NO questions with the intend to test him. If people test him, I'll RAGE! I have a Valiance and have no fear to use it!

Jokes and references to cartoons are allowed. The Master have a good humor.

EDIT: Ops! Wrong weapon.
/equip a Proto Bomb instead of a Valiance.
/throws the Valiance on the void of clockworks
I have a Proto Bomb and have no fear to use it!

Here We Go...

@Poom you are absolutely correct! I usually buy energy, get Proto swords and sell them at the AH for about 10k! Great way to make money in SK.

@Pipi I'm going to have to do an analysis here. Proto bomb has the word Proto in it! Nitrome doesn't! Proto bomb wins then right? Duuhhhhhhhh

@ Trats-Romra I like the way you answer questions while still leaving people annoyed! I'm hiring you as a secondary apprentice to answer the stupid questions and maybe those people can take the hint to get back to their own dead forum (Krakob!!!!!!!!)

Hello Again

@ Pipipipi Well Pipipipi as we all know Vanguards are overrated. I suggest you delete every single one of your knights and start a new one dedicated to achieving the rare proto set. I had the entire equinox set, including the orbit aura, every 5* torto shield, the entire black kat set and the obsidian set and do you know what I did? I sold it to Quillion of course! Then I deleted the knight and began on the new path to proto. That is how I am where I am now! Hope This Helps!
