  So, what do I do with the millions of gold of old (worthless) crafting items now? Lots of time was spent talking about the raid, enhancement, battles, and path changes, but I feel pretty blindsided about this one.

  Question: In the live stream you stated that scrolls rank 9 and 8 would destroy items, yet the description for rank 9 scrolls (haven't gotten 8 yet to confirm) states that it will NOT destroy items. Could you confirm which is the case?

  I'm going to try to make it quick
  
  [img][/img]via Imgflip Meme Generator
  
  
  For years we've been asking for one thing...... just one thing.... the PVP Ranking. And we get........ this. Seriously, I've known that this update is going to bring up some nasty things due to +20 enhancement, but I thought, what the hell,cash players are going to buy some runes and that way they will keep the game alive, nothing bad in that, BUT, I can't stand to see a .... "Ranking"... where a "wallet hero" is going to be first just because he "dropped" his credit card in Vindictus, I consider this a serious BS, an insult to non-cash players and I demand some explanation from the developer.

  I'm excited to try this. While not everything is perfect, I am particularly glad of the many smaller QoL changes, which I think will go a long way towards the long-term health of the game.
  
  I know a lot of people are upset about various changes to end-game progression, but claims that those changes "destroy" the game are unfounded. The game does not revolve entirely around the hardcore, though I know many people seem to feel that it does. The smaller QoL changes and changes to encourage new players are far more important.

  Presumably this is to prevent getting instagibbed due to stagger resistance. Getting instagibbed was always a danger while in trans, but that was a price of going pure offense with trans skills. But since stagger res is now more common, it makes sense to provide brief invuln, as long as it's very brief.

  So how about those old marketplace obsolete materials? Can't incinerate them. Straight to the NPC vendors then?

  To add onto the reasons to stop dodging and blocking, "For a short period after being hit, you will not take any additional damage!"
  Way to turn this into another generic tank and spank game.

  I'm excited to try this. While not everything is perfect, I am particularly glad of the many smaller QoL changes, which I think will go a long way towards the long-term health of the game.
  
  I know a lot of people are upset about various changes to end-game progression, but claims that those changes "destroy" the game are unfounded. The game does not revolve entirely around the hardcore, though I know many people seem to feel that it does. The smaller QoL changes and changes to encourage new players are far more important.

  
  What's the point making changes for new players if they're going to end up quitting due to the endgame garbage ones ? As someone said already on this forums, people just gonna quit at lv90 now instead of lv 30-40... NOTHING changed, that's the problem of this update : the best it will do is to change NOTHING. I don't really know how it's exciting to try this out.. they literally threw out 6 years of this game's identity in the trash can, nothing else.
  
  There were much better changes to do rather than literally made the game totally lose its identity... but they haven't listened to players feedbacks at all so, not so surprised anyway.
  
  And if you think I'm hating, not really, I'm just sad because one of my most favorite game just died for me, everything I actually spent time for and enjoyed so far is now pretty much dead and the remaining content is simply "empty".

  and 5 others.

  lol

  
  I think people are misunderstanding this sentence.
  In the Korean Patch Notes, it doesn't say this anywhere.
  
  What it says is, you will not take additional damage when you are in the flinch(?) motion.
  You know, when you flinch after getting hit by Neam's purple tornadoes, and end up taking 5 more hits from the tornado during the flinch motion when you can't move, dodge, etc. and end up dying.
