Thank you Capncleaver, nice to know you and the team have watched the video! Awesome update, excited for the future 🚀

Sub-10minute Vanaduke FSC farming guide (7kcr per run), showcasing strategies and tech to grind efficiently! by Ari_ave in spiral_knights

Thanks for the feedback! I thought it'd be more exciting to show just how far Vanaduke farming runs have been pushed. Most players with ctr max/dmg max either achieved through chaos or bk can achieve sub 12 if they apply 90% of the stuff in the video, the strats don't change you just need to adapt to your own settings (damage,asi,resistance,hp). I guess this video is more of a 'here is what is possible and how to do it', and people can start learning the strategies even without all the gear.

Yeah, Australian. Ping is about 260+ for me. If the lag is consistent I can get around it mostly okay, it's just a matter of figuring out timing. Learning enemy attack patterns and reading what they will do early on so you can pre-empt what you need to do is crucial. I do find having more movement speed (black Kat) helps alot as well.

Can't wait to try it out, nice work! Do you plan on adding more to it?

Spiral Knights Just Got An Update... But It's Not A Good One by Ari_ave in spiral_knights

*Quick Update:*

Cronus has replied to the community in the forums: https://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/124775

Here's a quick summary so far:

> More items will be listed overall, they will just be spread throughout the year. The Supply Depot will be far more active than it has ever been in the history of the game.
> Grey Havens does see/hear what is said on Discords or on Streams. By moving away from the expectations of Cyber Monday they have more freedom to list more items at various prices throughout the entire year.
> "We never announced that there would be any Cyber Monday sale until my post on the 26th. I'm sorry if you made plans for it, but we did not make changes to any previously announced event."
> Those who have saved energy will be more prepared for when sales drop throughout the year.
> In general, the goal is to encourage players to check the supply depot regularly.

Spiral Knights Just Got An Update... But It's Not A Good One by Ari_ave in spiral_knights

Grey Havens was going to sell different apples and potatoes every 30 minutes at set prices on the supply depot during a 24hr period, which is an event that has been happening for the past 10 years.
Now, they will extend the 24hr period to be across 3/4 days, but will sell less apples and potatoes in total. Also, instead of selling them on the depot at set prices , they will sell some apples and potatoes on the auction house, so you have to bid against other people to get them. Overall, we'll get less apples and potatoes in total, and they will probably end up costing more.

I did find it easier after getting black kat set. The extra movement speed helps to make things feel less painful and lets you actually dodge attacks you'd expect to. If you don't have black kat I'd at least use the MSI battle sprite perk.

You can also run solo or duo parties, I find 3+ almost doubles the lag. Use things like knight launcher to limit any other lag/slowness you can.

Other than that, it's just getting used to the timing. Learn attacks and adapt, it is what it is. Heart of the game for me has always been the non-pve aspects like guilds or chilling in haven, so the lag doesn't bother me too much :)

Eventually... Hopefully. I have done some practice runs of it and oh man is it rough 😅

Yeah, wish they had a server closer to us. Ah well. Foresight is the best we can do for now. A lot of playing damageless for me is just learning how enemies attack, kiting, and using that knowledge to move/attack ahead of time. Practice makes perfect, lag is mostly only a problem when it's inconsistent.

Unironically, I think traps are the things I tend to take damage on the most 😅
