Easy mode already existed. Those players already had it as an option. Now potential players who want a challenge have no option.
You do know there are players who refused to do easy mode because it's called "easy" mode, right? When i saw people megaing for stuff like story heide back in the days and told them easy mode exist, they always shut me off saying but easy mode is "easy".
Devcat even mentioned they had to revamp early content, because new players didn't know how to start a boat, and keep hitting the duck sign on the boat instead. There are lots of stupid players out there
Also, you get people megaing for devil in the water and memory of the past carries all the time.
They refuse to do easy mode for less exp, when they could've grind that amount of exp if they could've just spent the time waiting on boat to go grind in places like muir or abyssal arena. When i level my alt through s2 I always had to use easy mode for stuff like memory of past because the raid was just unreasonable and not everyone has monster PCs. Vet doesn't help these players who had to do the run in 70-80 brackets because of lack of drops, so stop claiming people love doing challenging raids like cromm before rise nerf. They nerfed stuff people don't care anymore.
Devcat could've returned macha and hero mode for s1 though with original AI though, stuff like ein lacher colru is indeed a joke now, but people even complained those were tedious, instead of requiring skills.
Miri most OP character confirmed, oneshotting s1 bosses ... oh wait it's post rise.
Anyway Drakar could've been Delia's 2nd weapon, so much reused animation taken from Delia. Miri's hands are bigger than her face as well.
I can see why they nerf these bosses down... it's not like endgame players gonna revisit these again, when all they run every week is neamhain x 4.
Nobody is there to help new players to go through s1 and s2 before update, and you see these new players megaing for story quest help all the time to no avail, when there's easy mode option "right there". At least now lv90 can tag along and get extra evil cores.
The game will hit its ghost town states after next week when these whales quit for something more challenging after 100 neamhain clears, but vindictus' biggest charm has always been outfit customization and rest are just bonus, so I am pretty indifferent about the update in the end, though AD change was definitely unneeded and unfair for players who had their builds optimized for non lv90s.
