When Should You Buy Energy?

Similar to my "When Should You Buy Rubies?" guide on my GoodGame Empire blog, in this post, I'm going to be talking about what you should think about before you start spending your money on Spiral Knights. Of course, this is only my opinions, so if you are extremely rich and don't care about wasting your money, then go right ahead. Below, I'll list a few questions that you should ask yourself and then in parentheses I explain why you should consider it before paying for energy in Spiral Knights.

1. Do you often lose interest in your games in less than a year and change the games you play often? (if you do, then you are likely to pay money for Spiral Knights and then quit Spiral Knights, meaning all that money you used would completely be wasted)

2. Would you much rather like to solo all of the missions and levels in the Clockworks? (If yes, you might want to use crystal energy to purchase better weapons and armor for soloing)

3. Do you play for over four hours of Spiral Knights every day? (If no, then using only your mist energy, it should be able to recharge fast enough for you to play everyday)

4. Do you have friends that you play Spiral Knights with? (Without friends, it is much more likely that you will lose interest in Spiral Knights quickly)

These are just some basics that you should ask. Of course, if you are under 18 and don't have a credit card, you have to go through more trouble buying crystal energy. Luckily, there are lots of options, so even if you have cash, you can mail it in, purchase Ultimate Game Cards, and other options. Personally, I think Spiral Knights is making way too much money and marking their virtual items to be way to expensive. Think of Runescape, you only pay like $7 a month and it's a much better developed MMORPG, while here, there are packages that are as expensive as $40!
