Not sure anyone has noticed, but I have disappeared lately. I have fallen into the Clockworks of Spiral Knights and refuse to come out! I am 100% addicted to this game! It is F2P, for the most part, and is Java based (yes, I used to hate java games too, but this one is pretty high tech). You are limited by the amount of Mist Energy you get (takes Mist Energy to adventure into the 'dungeons')
To the left you can see my character, Baines. His is decked out in Magic Hood, Magic Cloak, Owlite Shield, Bomb and Sword in this particular SC. I have gone almost pure bomber currently with bomber armor and equipment.
If you check it out and make it out of the training area called The Rescue Camp and into Haven, add me as a friend and mention the blog. I will do what I can to help you out. It can be challenging in the beginning getting "self sufficient".
Best,
The Bane
