  • Were horrible people (open beta players)

    I'm not a beta-time player, and, not wanting to degrade the beta-time players impresion of the game, I can't agree that season 3 raids are completly gear dependant.
    Why? Let's take regina for example, the first raid of all the season 3. Let's imagine you are a 21k Defense lann, the highest defense possible. You're so good and strong you don't even need to dodge, just keep that SH active and spin to win.
    While this is true for most of her attacks, it all changes when regina does her RED attacks.
    Regina's Red attacks ignore defense, and do fixed damage(unless you have a damage reducing buff like sylas shield or corona or fiona's iron defense), so thats a fixed 4k damage. A Lann can only stand 3-4 of those hits, and then he's dead, no matter the defense.
    Also, to dodge her red AoE as a Lann, requires the knowledge of the boss and the reaction to dodge in time, because he has poor mobility.

    I'm not trying to defend Season 3 content and sell it for the best ever. It has its flaws. But it simply isnt as gear dependant as you people are trying to imply.
    I actually don't like how the new red attacks came to be after Eochaid. Instead of "Very strong and slow attacks" they were fast and very weak. That made some bosses simply annoying to play, since you can't dodge some attacks if you are badly positioned or if a team player dodges into you (Abomination's Red jump - Cancerous as hell, gladly it doesn't hit very hard)

    Yes and no.You have a solid point,but it differs from person to person,that's why they should give best of both worlds to their playerbase.

    Advanced players should have the possibility to be challenged for a longer period of time.Most of them didnt have problems with the red attacks days after the bosses where 1st introduced.

    I think it's fair to give a normal mode to players who have more difficulty,but for the rest who are seeking harder challenges,it would actully be interesting if Regina's red attacks would literally 1 hit kill us or grant us a very inconveniant debuff...anything that would make it much more difficult.


    Regina has been released a very long time ago and at some point,there is no real sensation of progression.I think they should adjust hero modes for advanced players and apply features that are extrêmely difficult to deal with.So that way we can stay busy and intrgued untill the next updates comes up.

    We do have hero season 3 raids,but the reward are not scaled properly for the extra time it takes and frankly they are still not hard enough for experimented players.They have higher stats i guess but the fight is stil the same and it's not enough overwhelming.Back than soloing a raid was a real mess and that's why it was impressive whenever someone would pull a good solo and team work was required to succeed raids,now it's not the case.


    There is very dedicated players who spend a lot of time to learn and perform new raids because they really like the game, i think they deserve content that is fit for them.Proper hero modes would also offer fun challenges for those who want to.We probably should already have a second Reedeemer by now.

    Rezi is totally right and by *noob* i think he simply meant *newer generation of Vindictus players*

    Short story,characters mechanisms are ahead of boss mechanisms now and it was the total opposite back than plain simple.It was indeed much more satisfying before.Characters such as Arisha,Hurk,Vella are great additions to the game,but they where introduced with mechanisms that where way too conveniant in comparison to what it was before.From there it quickly escalated with a serie of buffs there and there and now we have what we have.Artifacts,super defense,high crit res,10k HP+,Int characters have acess to heavy/plate armor,all the i frames where buffed,ect,ect.

    I am not from the very beggining but i got to play a little before the wave of new characters came out and yes it was a totally differant story.Can only imagine how much harder it was for those who started near beta.

    3:28 enjoy:

  • Regina or Dully Weapon?

    If you want long term investment... Dullahan.Also i dont *think* we can upgrade the free purple level 90 weapon,not sure thoe.




    Only thing you will trade off if you get purple Dullahan is defense and speed,not that much thoe and you can make it up by mastering your class.

    Well-Balanced/Master

    Sparkling ES rings

    Significant ES on Earing,necklace and brooch

    70 Silver medals or Gold medals if possible

    All these scrolls,you can get them via Season 2 farm or buy them at decent prices.You can also get ton of magic powder and blessed powder to craft enchanting elixirs.There is a lot of locations where they drop.

    Actuly i have Echoing on my gloves and Fast on the earing,so if you replace those respectively by significant and enthusiastic,it will give you a total of 39 attack speed.Than again,i am currently using an AP shop necklace,but once you can get a Kitty Necklace,you can add an extra significant and get 40 attack speed and that's with a +6 weapon

    That's a rather cheap alternative of build and it gives you the necessary stats minus the additional damage of course,but at least you can test out your character for a good while and with decent balance/critcal rate/speed and than if you end up wanting to invest in another character you still can sell the weapon at least and move on.

    If you decide that you want to keep the character as a main,well you can wait for an opportunity to get an orange essence in the future and swap it.You would only loose 6 ranks of enhancement and yes,going to+10 could be an un-interesting experiance if you cannot afford runes.

    **Note

    Purple Dullahan,wether it's weapon or gear can only be enchanted with scrolls up to rank 8,but hey are also cheap and very efficient for a mid grade build up.

    It would be easy to get an all orange level 90 especially with the low prices and the seal shop,but you would fall short in critical rate and would need some costly rank 7 scrolls to make up for it.





    40 attack speed is repectable i think and you can see in the future how you want to proceed further,perhaps go get more additional damage,ect.GL.
