    In terms of more conditioning towards power creep, no

    In terms of accuracy of ranking to damage dealt, yes


    I still find crit resist thing funny

    Or better yet they could just get rid of rankings ;-)

    The rankings don't mean anything... maybe if they had to do with damage dealt and taking the least amount of hits during a raid. Then we would have meaningful rankings.

    Player stats ranking is as alien to Vindictus as pvp and guild battle are. It's a pve game which used to be somewhat balanced around skill/gear and dps.



    I'm not saying this because i barely make the first 50 Arishas, even though i play her from day 1. Not at all.

    The ranking system is ridiculous and I have a rank 9 Miri - well I did because I'm sure someone else has spent more money since last I played a week or so ago so probably down to 20. The ranking system only represents how much money we stupidly put into this game...that is all. At that point, we don't even need skill to out dps...especially with the additional damage factor. Get rid of it Nexon it is meaningless and misleading to players that don't know any better. Maybe then I will stop spending so much money on this game... Oops never mind, that is the reason I stopped playing. Bring back the value of skill.

    Back to question at hand...should additional damage affect ranking? No. They need to get rid of the ranking system. It is not a true measure of skill. That's all that should matter. But happy ranking everyone!!

    I do agree with @Tayla This system is catered to whales and gold buyers since everything can be achieved by simply buying gold or simply by showing off the "Plastic Skill" (which can be gold buying or whale.com or whales "r" us).

    It is sad to work hard in obtaining all end game accessories and weapons/armors, max all this out (enchants, infusing etc..) with months of work grinding and playing countless hours. So for you to see a random player that bought a weapon 90 level lets say +14 or above that clearly outshines the use or interest of a cap weapon, with a meager armor set and pathetic accessories out dps'ing everyone with it, even when we have end game build.

    The system is obviously broken without measure. Personally, I have lost my interest in the game but I am a sucker for the Vindi fashion. It is a great game but not so great ideas are been implemented. Not all changes work as "INTENDED" as we have seen from this Rise updates and forth. Hopefully, something will be done down the road but at the moment this ranking system is a pathetic add on to the game, and the Add Damage is ... well, again a broken system.

    I don't think that the system should be removed but it has to be tweaked towards levels and its relevancy according to the game cap. The ranking system will serve best as it was, displaying who did best at certain battles on a daily, weekly or monthly period. Attempting to have a number one person based on the current system is just absurd. Like others have said already "whales" and not skills.

    However, if the need for number one spot is that strong among whales then...... create a Credit Card ranking system for them and the skill ranking system for the rest of us!!

    Have a nice day!
