Lynn's second weapon is a battle umbrella. YAAAAAAAASSSS. Come through Moonlight Blade. I wonder if she'll get a new outfit like Hurk did for his 2nd weapon.

Also kinda bummed about removing the pot\repair animations. They were unique. Does it also mean that the pot bonus is removed.

Because this drug game is ridiculously profitable and easy to maintain.

You really think Nexon isn't trying to get rid of this game? They are trying so hard, but it just won't die. They scared away all the fansites, they banned half of the planet and they conveniently screw up events. Nothing. People still buy gachas like it's black friday sale. The hellfairy gachas alone paid Vindi's bills for the next year to come. And don't even get me started about the upcoming Regina avatar gachas. Those will pay Vindi's bills for another 5 years.

Vindictus is one of those games that relies on uniqueness ("no other game like dis") to get away with everything by holding a monopoly over what it does. S4 League is like that too. Its main income is gambling gachas (called G-Capsules), it's low maintenance p2p connection just like Vindi and relies on its uniqueness\monopoly to get away with everything (it got away with Aeria Games being its publisher in the west just like Vindi gets away with Nexon NA). S4 League has been turning profits for over 10 years, so Vindi has a long way to go before it dies.

Fun fact - S4 League had a whale exodus at around 2015-2016. Aeria games felt invincible for a second and put 500$-worth exclusive outfits for just 20$, and they also made p2w whale-only items more accessible to the peasants. It pissed off a lot of whales so many of them quit. I thought that was a bold move. That's it, now that the whales beached themselves, the game will surely die. Nope. When you're a "no other game like dis" you can truly get away with anything - that includes shting all over the whales. I dunno what happened afterwards, maybe some of the whales came back (even though I checked their forum badges and they all said "last seen on 2015\early 2016), maybe new whales came. The point is, people really underestimate the power of a "no other game like dis".

"No other game like dis" is a helluva a drug.

So 5 years and they never even accidentally right-clicked on one of the chest icons? I don't think it's the developers' fault.

Lol at all these pseudo-quitters again. We had how many like these back in EU forums? There was this Vella guy who made a thread about quitting and came back after a month and Gwell who "quit" for a week. You know how you can tell whether somebody is really quitting or pseudo-quitting? Players who really quit don't announce it on the forums. They simply quit. Players who publicly announce their intent to "quit" are just doing it to get a reaction.

It's like those girls who tell their boyfriends "That's it! We're through! I'm leaving!" and they never actually mean it. They just say that hoping they'll get a reaction from their boyfriend begging them to stay. Meanwhile Nexon is not going to stop you and won't give you a reaction because they just don't care. And you know what happens to those girls who "leave" when they don't get the reaction they wanted? Come back knocking on the door the next day. So see you all next update. Or next week. Whatever.

And yes I actually knew a girl like this. She lived downstairs and broke up with her abusive boyfriend like 5 times. Every time she told me "That's it! This time I'm REALLY leaving him!" I'd just roll my eyes and be like "Mhm". So now I'm just imagining Nexon employees\forum mods\whatever just sitting there reading all these "I'm leaving!!!" empty threats and going like "Mhm, see you all next week".

And this is exactly the reason why it is much harder to play well on Premium. Stamina management is way harder than a lot of people think, and in order to be really good on premium and consistently solo end game raid bosses you need to be really disciplined and know when to use what.

Spam makes things a bit too easy and covers up a lot of mistakes.

Stop trying to make Pre happen. Not going to work, you're just reaching.



Search for premiere solos on YouTube and you'll see the sheer amount of Stamina Pot abuse. Premiere doesn't want you to "manage your stamina", it wants you to buy stamina pots, merc pots+ (the ones that give stamina buff), bath soaps (30 more stamina), gear abilities, Passion and Berserker enchant scrolls. Stamina is just another stat and same as with other stats - you can buy it.

You can buy stamina, and you can buy stamina regeneration, but you can't buy combo bonus.
