Sadly, I don't have an ID for the Korean forum. The site requires you to have i-Pin (personal security number) but to get i-Pin you have to live in Korea for personal verification

The director said himself that he browses and monitors the forum.

I will still try to find a way.

Hello, I roughly translated the Director's Notes.

is it actually a compulsion for you guys to try to get the highest enhancement? like, literally just put down the burgerenhancement stones, fattyvindi addict

anyway, i'm not trying to defend the update. plenty wrong with it. i'm just here for the new bosses and will be happy to take an hour to kill it with other scrubs like me or just get carried by +19s.

You see in Vindictus, there's a life threatening sickness. It happens to all players, but some players grow immune to it. In Korea, we call this sickness 강화병, which can be translated to Enhancement Addiction.

It's what causes the people of Erin to disappear. It's been said they disappear when their weapon blows up by Ferghus.

The only cure known as of now is +15. But according to the chosen oracle, +15 will not be enough in the future...

I wouldn't have a problem with high enhance weapons being rare again if those high enhancements are largely vanity.

Instead the difference between a +15 and a +20 is so astronomically high that it's almost comical. It'll create a paywall so ridiculous that I bet most of the current whales who are keeping the game afloat won't be willing to surmount.

Here's another thing that really bothers me, didn't they just nerf additional damage not too long ago? And now they're buffing it over the horizon. What is going in Devcat's development team?

Yes, Additional DMG caused lots of problems and was changed multiple times.

In the beginning Additional DMG was added in to "reward" players who got high enhanced weapons.
However, the influence of additional DMG was very minimal and people complained that there was no merit in having their +15.
So devCAT decided to buff Additional DMG few years ago, which turned out to be a disaster. It was nerfed again and the benefit of +15 was minimal again.

People complained again that having high enhance should at least give them some advantages not only ATT (because maps have ATT limit) and ATT SPD (which can be obtained from ES). (ATT limit release was added for the same reason).
Of course, they didn't want anything too broken like the pre-nerf Additional DMG. They just wanted "a little" something.

But here we are, the mighty DOL has given us the broken Additional DMG making low enhanced weapon not even competable with high enhanced ones.

Apparently, additional DMG applies to PvP.

You can now one shot people.
