Is there still an energy system?
That prevets you to keep starting new missions? I had issues with friends that died more and used revives and it killed the parties when we had to start new runs.

Their is no longer mist energy, elevators no longer require energy to use.
You are granted 1 free revive at the start of each floor, if you die after that you must either consume a spark of life, or energy if you lack sparks of life to revive

For 200 energy you can buy 10 sparks. They also drop from boxes. Each spark is worth around 2000 crowns.
Tell your friends to stop Reviving constantly and it won't be a problem

This is great news! We are reinstalling!

Sparks that drop from prize boxes cannot be traded though, so this value only applies to Sparks bought through the Energy Depot and then auctioned.

How do people run JK or FSC and not have any Sparks with them? I have 100+ saved up on my newer toon just from missions and prize boxes alone. I can't justify spending them, if I die during a mission I'll just start over.

They can still be used on other players.

I've never heard of other players charging money for them mid-dungeon. If a guildie needs a spark I'm happy to throw them a few, but I've never seen someone request a spark in a pug and then someone else go "i'll revive you for 2kcr."

When I played, when you reached each 8th floor, you had to pay another 10 energy to continue.

I miss energy fees. I miss Mist and Mist Tanks and elevator passes and not needing crystals to heat. I really do wish this game had a private server that had old-world Spiral Knights, where it was just the Arcade.

I don't know what you're talking about, old SK sucked.

So the whole game basically? Paid player had it better and F2P had it up their asses. Now F2P have it better and Paid player gets swag.

It's a much better model now. IDK what kind of clockwork you live on but it ain't SK

If you paid 6$ a month you had free crafts. Otherwise you had 10 depths per day and then social or BN/LD for mod calibrators.

Back to OP: Sparks are somewhat rare but if you are good then you won't use any. I'm currently sitting on 200+ bound sparks of life

Spark drop rates could do with at least a mild boost. I play things pretty safe, but I've been stuck at around 30 for as long as I can remember. Hell, I seem to get more Eternal Orbs than I do Sparks.

I think the drop rate for Sparks is just right, about 1 in every 100 boxes. I'm sitting on 116 right now, used very few in the rank missions. They're not common, but they're not outlandishly rare either, you will see them from time to time. Orbs are much harder to find, IMO (except Eternals).
