i sent you Jienny a message for a guild invite

was wondering, how do i know when to buy some gear? cause i bought / made a few pieces from Recipes and the stats are i guess slightly better, but they are like 7 levels lower than my starting gear... Also, do you have to fully charge bombs everytime to lay one down? kinda sucks

Game tells you that you need better gear to advance deeper. Thus you'll have to upgrade to next tier at one point. I think higher tier gear all have better stats than leveled lower tier gear.

Also, I will be online after work whole evening. So I can sort out stuffs so that we can handle invites bit better. If there is anyone who wants to promote their self to officer and is active, PM/poke me in game today. Only requirements is to be active and helpful.

Do item sets give bonuses, and if so, are they worth it? I'm deciding between doing mix and match to give optimal coverage, but if set bonuses do a lot, I might stick with a certain set.

Some items give resistances, some give bonus health. And bonuses are quite balanced. Weapons have bit more variation and its more of an question of play style. Also, upgrading armor&helmet is quite important, as those mobs start to hit hard quite fast. Items also get bonuses after leveling, with addition of normal damage&speed&damage absorb addition.

After reading topic in the Spiral Knights forums, we should make effort of putting non-yellow/green minerals to the forming gates. So if you can make deviation from auto-sell button it would be appreciated.

here is bit of rundown what gates we are generating:

The gate inspiring this thread: Slime Fire Fire Slime Fire Fire
Upcoming gate: Fire Slime Fire Fire Fire Fire
Next upcoming gate: Slime Fire Fire Slime Slime Slime
In-progress gate: Fire Slime Beast Freeze ? Fire[predetermined]
Next in-progress gate: Slime Fire ? Slime[predetermined] ?

So, it looks we are going to crawl in yellow/green for quite time, but if we start to harvest more blue/purple, situation can improve and we get better and different gates to explore.

If you clear floors instead of going down as fast as you can, you can have a perpetual supply of energy at the cost of 1/4-1/3 of your income.

What happens when you run out of energy? You can't do dungeons for another day? What can you do in the mean time?

You can't do dungeons, and you can't craft. You can walk around and buy stuff. You also need 5 energy to log in, so to conserve energy, I would remain idle instead of exiting. Last time I checked, PvP only costed crowns, so you can pvp if you want. It's currently disabled.

There really trying to force money out of this game aren't they? Money to PvP even if it is only crowns that is still annoying. And it costs to log in and out? Thats a bit ridiculous. Does it fully recharge every day though?
