Why are you assming I didn't read it, maybe not assume things of other people, it's rude. Either way, none of it is all that relevant to the concern of the raid balance itself.


It's simpler to just limit the level, then no one would have to sort through filters to do a raid. Plus sub 90 players can still make the boats themselves, and unless they get a carry, it's just a waste of time for them.

Then why are you arguing with me? You just admitted that it's easy to hit 90, so why are you so against barring a 90 raid to 90+ players only?

Well I'll apologize for assuming. That was quite hipocritical of me - it seemed to be a safe assumption as you did not even bother to respond to them.
But hey at least my assumption had reasoning behind it and I apologized ¯\_(ツ)_/ ¯

Not completely sure what filters you're talking about. All you have to do is open quick battle and choose the raid you want
Sub 90 players that make their own party will waste 30 min of their time if they're unlucky. Chances are the other party members will be able to clear it under 20. If they're extremely unlucky, they won't clear it, which is honestly very unlikely, but regardless, the possibility is there and 30 min is wasted. Honestly not that big of a deal.

I'm against raising the level as I think it's unnecessary
But here's some example scenarios
- Returning players under 90 may want to do it (ex: to reminisce without having to grind). Even better if it's challenging for them as it'll give them a goal compared to if they just did s1 and s2 stuff.
- There are quite a few competent players - or along the same lines, old players making new characters that want drops
- I dislike putting content behind bars (reminds me of BDO where you grind to 50 and a message pops up saying 'this is where you actually start to play the game!'). Who knows. Maybe a new level 80 player would get bored to grind to 90 and quit without being able to actually play the game - and that's not what we want.

Regardless, at the end of the day, all this arguing is useless as they won't change it so lolripyou

That's exactly what happened to my girlfriend, I was away on vacation for 3 weeks, before I left I introduced the game to her, She played lynn and was having a lot of fun, until she got to around 82 and started doing some s3 bosses. Sadly she got kicked from most because she didn't have the requirements. When I came back from the vacation I asked how she was doing. And she told me she quit, when I asked her why. She responded with she could barely find any raids due to getting kicked from the boats. When I told her I'll be hosting the boats now that I am back, she declined and told me that we should just continue play the other game.

People don't realize this when putting restrictions on boats, we are in need of new players and we should take care of them help them out. But instead they want to finish the raid in sub 5minutes. Not thinking that kicking people can make them quit the game if they've been kicked a few times before already.

Then just don't run the mission with people who have low stats

I plan to, but it's more about players joining boats that there would be now way they'd be prepared for and then getting stuck in it or getting kicked from it because the boat let's people under 90 in. Try reading the post next time, I've already explained this.

Either way, it wouldn't be fun for them, therefore we should just limit it to 90, that way if they join there's at least a chance they'll have decent gear for what is now a 90 raid.

And please can someone make so that neamhain is 30k att and 140crit minimum, It's so annoying when people dare to join with lesser stats, like cmon... At least play the game for 1,5 years before trying to join neam to simply make it harder for me to complete it... I want other people to fill the spots with 30k att and 140crit, not ppl with +12...

Games Dead >.< but ima log in for this update thoooooooo XP

Same here, last time I checked the game was about 4weeks ago or so after 3months break, played one dungeon with old friends and logged out cause the lag was insane, hopefully I'll get a prettier experience this time around.

This game only needs tiny bit of advertisement, but nexon sees us as a simple item in their menu. What I mean by that is, imagine their top games like Counter strike - Nexon Zombies, HiT, Rider of icarius and etc being the different hamburger menus.

Now Vindictus is just like the cheap 0.5 euro ice cream. They barely notice the ice cream sales compared to the main course sales which are perhaps 10euro, which results in the ice cream being just a bonus thing they got on their menu.

And instead of advertising the ice cream, they just hope that we'll come back and buy the hamburgers, in this case start playing their more popular games. If they really cared about Vindictus they'd advertise it, they got countless of mobile games as well as a yearly revenue of 1.5billion Euro, which means that they can definitely afford using some money to advertise the game. But they are not stupid, they won't spend money in hope to revive and old game, they're better of spending that money advertising their new games.

Heck, I used to advertise this game myself in websites like 9gag, posting a nice looking gif of the game for example, and end up having a few people ask what game it is. Though this really isn't an effective way as the max of response I would get per gif was 3-5comments.

Conclusion, Nexon sees Vindictus as an outdated game that they care about enough to give use a few updates here and there to milk some money of us, while hoping we would discard the game we love, and instead play another Nexon game where they can further make us spend money.
