Look, here's the one and only one reason you all are beating on scythe evie. In a season where the primary gimmick is "unblockables", blink travels the most distance in the least amount of time.
Period.
Pfft people throwing out words like "broken" and "carry" over 10% damage differences. Lugh has 9m health points. 10% of that is 900k. That's 2min, maybe 3min of dps from any competent player, tops.
It's been said before. At this point, we all deserve a nerf. But not because of silly player vs player balance reasons.
I fully understand your feeling. When leveling up my characters I focused on living, taking my time, reacting like Dark Souls, trying to play the video game. Then S3 slapped me across the face.
The curse status effect is the most unfun status effect in the entire game, worse than dullness or weakness. You know what it is? It's a DPS check. "THOU SHALT FINISH IN 5MIN OR NOT AT ALL."
Don't feel bad about this at all. Treat S3 differently from the rest of Vindictus. Bring a buddy. Bring chain hooks: aim for the legs. Do normal mode => more chain hooks. Take solace in the fact that you'll never have to do it again.
I can't think of a single reason to use Cat Statue instead of Ghost. Upfront 500 vs 250, and same SP per minute. So at very least it's more "better and better replacement gear", and that leads to more content rot. Because we love how 90% of the gear/dungeons/activities is no longer relevant, don't we?
I'm glad it's temporary.
And for the record, I would indeed be highly amused (and a little jelly) if they started handing out permanent replacement artifacts after two years of handcuffing them to the pvp system. It'd almost look like the content designers admitting that the grind is as tedious as kick killing kobolds.
