Don't listen to these jokers giving suggestions other than Chaos and Black Kat. Get Chaos first, then Black Kat later when you're rich as shit. Black Kat is end-game GOAT armor that is only made efficient if you have the UVs to keep up with it. If you're PvP oriented, you don't even need good UVs to make Black Kat work out for you. You put it on and you instantly become a living god.As someone who is currently making two alts, one in Cobalt and one in Demo, you will thank me and anyone who suggested Chaos when you make it. Doing ANYTHING in non-Chaos/BK will feel like it's taking you a freakin eternity. I imagine you're a man who values your time and effort so make the right choice early!
You will beat content 2-3x faster than your average shmuck who chose a stupid option and you will feel powerful as foooook. If anyone says to play the game with anything other than Chaos, they're trying to give you a shitty experience. I've been playing this game for 7+ years. I got 10k+ hours logged. I'm a damn Spiral Knights field expert. Make the right choice, my son.As for weapons, you should at least make Combuster or Blitz.
Ecity. Finally got around to demonstrating/explaining the snarb cap and coat set:) Hope ya enjoyed! Here's the link for a demonstration of the barb thorn shield: h. Nov 11, 2009 The Spiral Knights have awoken on an unknown world. Their equipment stores have been raided and their starship, The Skylark, will not recover from the crash. As a Spiral Knight.
These progressively more effective tutors will boost key stats, but each comes with an extra set of objectives - stuff like hitting 90 flat spin shots or winning 35 points at the net - which unlock more boosts to stats. Should you complete a calendar year, you're rewarded with extra fans/XP for your placement in a constantly-tallied set of series and leaderboards. These are lost when a coach is let go, but they also provide minigames that permeate normal games, and they're surprisingly effective way to keep you mixing up your game. Top spin 4. Completing multiple coach goals means there's a compounded set of boosts, which also encourages one to stick with things until the coach has nothing more to impart.Interestingly, every 'month' is split between either training with specific opponents or participating in more social events - charity games, spa visits, publicity appearances and more, all of which can help dole out XP or fans.
Ideally, you'll make em both since they're the classic for Vanaduke runs, which you will be doing for 95% of your stay in Cradle. Don't care if you're PvP-oriented, you'll want these cuz you're gonna run out of crowns eventually.
Invest in these for the long term, then do whatever you want afterward.' But Manlet, I want to make a different set. Chaos is uglier than my left nutsack, plus, everyone and their mum wears it. I wanna be different/special.' Be special after.
You want the strength to hold your own first, then make yourself look pretty. Unless you're going to go full P2W from the jump, get Chaos.
Seriously, anyone who says to not pick Chaos is trying to fuck you over. I am trying to put you on the right path, my son. I'm also high as a kite, WEEEE!TL;DR - Get Chaos. If anyone says to not get Chaos, kick em in the nuts for being dumb. Get Combuster and/or Blitz next. Only NOW can you make other shit. Literally do whatever you want after this cuz you beat the game.
The advantages heavily outweigh the disadvantages. To put it into perspective, every single above average player in this game uses Black Kat. The poor ones use Chaos, but the long and short is that these sets give you the power to kill things before said things become a problem.
The fact that they give damage to every weapon type is what makes it stupid strong. Personally, I think it needs to get nerfed, but Grey Havens is way past that now. Just take a peak at literally every Horse in Haven as well and they all don Black Kat usually. The set is worth 35-45k energy for a clean set for a reason.As for the negative resists, they might become a problem since you're new, but you'll quickly learn to not get into those situations. Worse case scenario, you mash dash to lose aggro and wait out the status or just pop a remedy.
Honestly, remedies are so overpowered that you never need to have fear in Chaos/BK, on the small chance you are actually hit. In Spiral Knights, a strong offense is the best defense. Conversely, the best defense definitely does not produce a strong offense.Hope that helped. Trust me, Chaos will be your best friend. He's a good fella who just wants what's best for you and so do I.
Make the right choice, my son. Vote for Chaos 2020. Honestly, my suggestion would be between the chaos set of black Kat set if you are the saint of dodging, if not then I'd suggest the cog cub set or skolver set for swords and Deadshot mantle set for guns. Bombers, I'm not sure of as I've had no experience with them, onto the weapons: for swords I'd suggest high damage and high asi swords like any of the brandish line, if you want to be a heavy hitter, try the sealed sword lines and the troika lines, mix and match your favorites, for guns I would highly recommend the iron slug and any Antigua or Pulsar line of your choice (and blitz needle for vana) personally, the elemental line would benefit the best but moving on, if you want to be a hybrid, again chaos or black kat is best, along with a brandish line and blitz needle. Now the shields: Get a grey owlite shield for all purpose use or a swiftstrike buckler for swords, If you're feeling daring, don't equip a shield and slap on some DOOM soundtracks, you'll be the horror.
Mercurial demo can be better than black kat in the right context. Full BK will also push you past the damage cap for swords with the striker shield in lockdown. But, both sets are pretty far off from chaos obtainability wise. If you aren't using chaos use something that improves your weapons.Electron charge with any penetrating attack is usually considered a good combo for killing things quickly (magnus type charge, brandish type charge, etc). Shivermist makes the game easy but undermines grav bombs such as the aforementioned electron. Blitz needle is the best weapon for vanaduke and at least the second-best weapon for firestorm citadel itself. The dark version of it is probably the best weapon for royal jelly/roarmulus twins, who resist piercing.
Mix/orbitgun is the best weapon in the game but takes millions of crowns to obtain. Best bomber set is: mad bomber set with nitrome+ash of agni+voltaic tempest(although this one triggers people the most). Nitrome is obviously the easiest to string and ash of agni has high dps with the fire effect especially when people use black kat. Not 100% sure but if you go guardian I think you get max with everything before trinkets but if you need a trinket to get max prioritised charge time reduction and then get a penta heart pendant.If you go gunner just get the shadowsun set. What I did for weapons was prisma and umbra driver with damage trinket for max and penta heart pendant. Having your weapons fully heated is also super important it doesnt seem like much but especially the jump from level 7 to level 10 gives a huge dps spike.Edit: OK I thought you meant best set for lockdown lol.
For regular play my first 5. set was Snarby helm + Showsun slicker + Divine avenger + Polaris + Aegis. It's descent you can do pretty good on most levels with this setup imo. Recommendations are somewhat different because you're new - you'll have a rough time of it going for Chaos/Black Kat sets. Sets depend much more on which weapons you favour, as well as how much you're willing to grind.
The theme is usually to pick armour for its offensive boosts, because it's pretty expensive to make a set for each element and the boosts do make a difference when stacked up.If you prefer swords:.look up the Wolver set (2.) and lines for a damage bonus. At 5. the easily-attainable variants are Skolver (more of the same - always a solid choice) and Vog Cub (attack speed boost over attack damage - better for slow swords or shield play).A good all-around defensive set at 5. would split Skolver with (I think?) Miracle gear, a 5. Magic set piece, for some defense against every element, a good set of status resistances, and a useful +2 sword damage boost.I'd recommend defensive shields with matched elements - so a Shadow shield against Shadow enemies, etc - because they really do make a difference. One way to go about it with only two shields would be the Skelly and Drake Scale lines (the latter starts at 3.).If you're set on one shield, either splash out for the boss shield recipes for the Bristling Buckler line (reasonable defense, sword damage boosts) or, if you feel like learning to dodge real fast in the endgame, the 3.
Swiftstrike Buckler, which offers amazing offensive boosts but caps at 3. for very poor defensive stats in Tier 3. Don't grab just one high-health defensive shield (Plate) and stick with it, because you won't get much out of it compared to an off-element shield.Weapons: the cheapest easy route through the game would involve a Normal-damage sword and an Elemental handgun. Normal swords are pretty well viable but won't stand up to element-matched swords in terms of sheer power.

Black Kat is end-game GOAT armor that is only made efficient if you have the UVs to keep up with it. If you're PvP oriented, you don't even need good UVs to make Black Kat work out for you.

Magic set piece, for some defense against every element, a good set of status resistances, and a useful +2 sword damage boost.I\'d recommend defensive shields with matched elements - so a Shadow shield against Shadow enemies, etc - because they really do make a difference. One way to go about it with only two shields would be the Skelly and Drake Scale lines (the latter starts at 3.).If you\'re set on one shield, either splash out for the boss shield recipes for the Bristling Buckler line (reasonable defense, sword damage boosts) or, if you feel like learning to dodge real fast in the endgame, the 3. Swiftstrike Buckler, which offers amazing offensive boosts but caps at 3. for very poor defensive stats in Tier 3. Don\'t grab just one high-health defensive shield (Plate) and stick with it, because you won\'t get much out of it compared to an off-element shield.Weapons: the cheapest easy route through the game would involve a Normal-damage sword and an Elemental handgun. Normal swords are pretty well viable but won\'t stand up to element-matched swords in terms of sheer power.
...'>Spiral Knights Armor(02.05.2020)Don\'t listen to these jokers giving suggestions other than Chaos and Black Kat. Get Chaos first, then Black Kat later when you\'re rich as shit. Black Kat is end-game GOAT armor that is only made efficient if you have the UVs to keep up with it. If you\'re PvP oriented, you don\'t even need good UVs to make Black Kat work out for you. You put it on and you instantly become a living god.As someone who is currently making two alts, one in Cobalt and one in Demo, you will thank me and anyone who suggested Chaos when you make it. Doing ANYTHING in non-Chaos/BK will feel like it\'s taking you a freakin eternity. I imagine you\'re a man who values your time and effort so make the right choice early!
You will beat content 2-3x faster than your average shmuck who chose a stupid option and you will feel powerful as foooook. If anyone says to play the game with anything other than Chaos, they\'re trying to give you a shitty experience. I\'ve been playing this game for 7+ years. I got 10k+ hours logged. I\'m a damn Spiral Knights field expert. Make the right choice, my son.As for weapons, you should at least make Combuster or Blitz.
Ecity. Finally got around to demonstrating/explaining the snarb cap and coat set:) Hope ya enjoyed! Here\'s the link for a demonstration of the barb thorn shield: h. Nov 11, 2009 The Spiral Knights have awoken on an unknown world. Their equipment stores have been raided and their starship, The Skylark, will not recover from the crash. As a Spiral Knight.
These progressively more effective tutors will boost key stats, but each comes with an extra set of objectives - stuff like hitting 90 flat spin shots or winning 35 points at the net - which unlock more boosts to stats. Should you complete a calendar year, you\'re rewarded with extra fans/XP for your placement in a constantly-tallied set of series and leaderboards. These are lost when a coach is let go, but they also provide minigames that permeate normal games, and they\'re surprisingly effective way to keep you mixing up your game. Top spin 4. Completing multiple coach goals means there\'s a compounded set of boosts, which also encourages one to stick with things until the coach has nothing more to impart.Interestingly, every \'month\' is split between either training with specific opponents or participating in more social events - charity games, spa visits, publicity appearances and more, all of which can help dole out XP or fans.
Ideally, you\'ll make em both since they\'re the classic for Vanaduke runs, which you will be doing for 95% of your stay in Cradle. Don\'t care if you\'re PvP-oriented, you\'ll want these cuz you\'re gonna run out of crowns eventually.
Invest in these for the long term, then do whatever you want afterward.\' But Manlet, I want to make a different set. Chaos is uglier than my left nutsack, plus, everyone and their mum wears it. I wanna be different/special.\' Be special after.
You want the strength to hold your own first, then make yourself look pretty. Unless you\'re going to go full P2W from the jump, get Chaos.
Seriously, anyone who says to not pick Chaos is trying to fuck you over. I am trying to put you on the right path, my son. I\'m also high as a kite, WEEEE!TL;DR - Get Chaos. If anyone says to not get Chaos, kick em in the nuts for being dumb. Get Combuster and/or Blitz next. Only NOW can you make other shit. Literally do whatever you want after this cuz you beat the game.
The advantages heavily outweigh the disadvantages. To put it into perspective, every single above average player in this game uses Black Kat. The poor ones use Chaos, but the long and short is that these sets give you the power to kill things before said things become a problem.
The fact that they give damage to every weapon type is what makes it stupid strong. Personally, I think it needs to get nerfed, but Grey Havens is way past that now. Just take a peak at literally every Horse in Haven as well and they all don Black Kat usually. The set is worth 35-45k energy for a clean set for a reason.As for the negative resists, they might become a problem since you\'re new, but you\'ll quickly learn to not get into those situations. Worse case scenario, you mash dash to lose aggro and wait out the status or just pop a remedy.
Honestly, remedies are so overpowered that you never need to have fear in Chaos/BK, on the small chance you are actually hit. In Spiral Knights, a strong offense is the best defense. Conversely, the best defense definitely does not produce a strong offense.Hope that helped. Trust me, Chaos will be your best friend. He\'s a good fella who just wants what\'s best for you and so do I.
Make the right choice, my son. Vote for Chaos 2020. Honestly, my suggestion would be between the chaos set of black Kat set if you are the saint of dodging, if not then I\'d suggest the cog cub set or skolver set for swords and Deadshot mantle set for guns. Bombers, I\'m not sure of as I\'ve had no experience with them, onto the weapons: for swords I\'d suggest high damage and high asi swords like any of the brandish line, if you want to be a heavy hitter, try the sealed sword lines and the troika lines, mix and match your favorites, for guns I would highly recommend the iron slug and any Antigua or Pulsar line of your choice (and blitz needle for vana) personally, the elemental line would benefit the best but moving on, if you want to be a hybrid, again chaos or black kat is best, along with a brandish line and blitz needle. Now the shields: Get a grey owlite shield for all purpose use or a swiftstrike buckler for swords, If you\'re feeling daring, don\'t equip a shield and slap on some DOOM soundtracks, you\'ll be the horror.
Mercurial demo can be better than black kat in the right context. Full BK will also push you past the damage cap for swords with the striker shield in lockdown. But, both sets are pretty far off from chaos obtainability wise. If you aren\'t using chaos use something that improves your weapons.Electron charge with any penetrating attack is usually considered a good combo for killing things quickly (magnus type charge, brandish type charge, etc). Shivermist makes the game easy but undermines grav bombs such as the aforementioned electron. Blitz needle is the best weapon for vanaduke and at least the second-best weapon for firestorm citadel itself. The dark version of it is probably the best weapon for royal jelly/roarmulus twins, who resist piercing.
Mix/orbitgun is the best weapon in the game but takes millions of crowns to obtain. Best bomber set is: mad bomber set with nitrome+ash of agni+voltaic tempest(although this one triggers people the most). Nitrome is obviously the easiest to string and ash of agni has high dps with the fire effect especially when people use black kat. Not 100% sure but if you go guardian I think you get max with everything before trinkets but if you need a trinket to get max prioritised charge time reduction and then get a penta heart pendant.If you go gunner just get the shadowsun set. What I did for weapons was prisma and umbra driver with damage trinket for max and penta heart pendant. Having your weapons fully heated is also super important it doesnt seem like much but especially the jump from level 7 to level 10 gives a huge dps spike.Edit: OK I thought you meant best set for lockdown lol.
For regular play my first 5. set was Snarby helm + Showsun slicker + Divine avenger + Polaris + Aegis. It\'s descent you can do pretty good on most levels with this setup imo. Recommendations are somewhat different because you\'re new - you\'ll have a rough time of it going for Chaos/Black Kat sets. Sets depend much more on which weapons you favour, as well as how much you\'re willing to grind.
The theme is usually to pick armour for its offensive boosts, because it\'s pretty expensive to make a set for each element and the boosts do make a difference when stacked up.If you prefer swords:.look up the Wolver set (2.) and lines for a damage bonus. At 5. the easily-attainable variants are Skolver (more of the same - always a solid choice) and Vog Cub (attack speed boost over attack damage - better for slow swords or shield play).A good all-around defensive set at 5. would split Skolver with (I think?)
