They have a list that I forgot to paste in so I edited the post to include it. The short version is this: 150 Seals of Bravery for a weapon feather/essence, 40 Seals for an armor feather/essence, 50 Seals for a legendary shard.
Are they still random? Even if so that's way better than the old 250 for a single random orange.

You can choose the exact type of mat you need, e.g. "Regina's Feather: Chest Armor." The stats are rolled when you buy the mat so you don't know precisely what bonuses you'll get, if that's what you mean.
It was the first one, whether we get to pick which boss/shard type.

The return of the enchant shop is officially announced. Also, two other things.
quote:
Enter the Abyssal Arena
The Ein Lacher Challenge brought you face to face with a single boss and gave you a simple task: Win as cleanly as you can, win with absolute perfection, and win without suffering a even a scratch for the best possible rewards. The Abyssal Arena is a far different obstacle, and if you play it safe, you won't get anywhere.
The new Abyssal Arena battle quest takes you to a small arena, where wave after wave of foes will test your ability to kill in the blink of an eye. Upon entering the Arena, you'll have 12 minutes to fight. Defeat all the monsters, and a new wave of enemies will appear, culminating in a powerful boss from Vindictus' past.
Defeat the boss to clear each level of the Arena, sending you down to the next level with 2 minutes added to the clock. Each boss you slay will grant you a new cache of AP, each new level will give you a new set of foes to dispatch, and if you can slay the champion of the Arena before time expires, there's a bounty of Seals of Bravery for you to claim. Just don't entirely forget about defense: Your HP, SP, Stamina and Armor Damage will not reset between each level, and sheer attrition can wear down even the mightiest warrior.
quote:
Multiple Character Improvements
Throughout 2015 and 2016, we've been going back to our array of Mercenaries and giving them tune ups, shoring up their weak spots and giving them some new powers. With the Abyssal Arena update, it's time for Arisha and Lynn to get some tweaks to their key abilities, as well as one big attack for the little lady with the lance.
Lynn finally receives her Ultimate ability, the Flight of the Valkyries, a blistering series of attacks to utterly devastate any foe that gets on Lynn's bad side. Arisha's new ability isn't as flashy, but it's no less useful. MP Swap grants the Spell-swordsman the ability to drain banked up SP for Mana, letting her unleash her Mana Blade offensive for even longer than before.
Those aren't the only changes to come to the Mercenaries either. Lynn's Five Finger Death attack will become smoother to use and Delia and Sylas will receive their own share of tweaks. On top of that, we have a bevy of bug fixes and other improvements planned, so keep your eyes peeled for the full list of changes to come!
quote:
Enchant Exchange Shop Returns
The Enchant Exchange Shop is returning for another month, come November 23rd! Just as before, the Enchant Exchange Shop will allow you to obtain Ancient Coins by completing certain Raid Battles and take them to the Exchange Shop to purchase the exact Enchant Scroll you want. You'll only have a month to get your hands on the scrolls you need, so get ready to go raiding!
Not included in this update: Story content.

Update day is here and there's even more going on than previously indicated.
Enter the Abyssal Arena (if you know what I mean):
quote:
Welcome to the Abyssal Arena update! The new battlefield might be the biggest features present, but with two new abilities to learn, new expansions on the Item Composition system, numerous new events and sales and dozens of other changes before you, there's plenty here to delve into, so take a look at it all below!
quote:
Lynn finally receives her Ultimate ability, the Flight of the Valkyries, a blistering series of attacks to utterly devastate any foe that gets on Lynn's bad side. Just as with the Ultimate attacks for other characters, her target is stunned for the duration of the assault, with a long cooldown and hefty SP cost required to activate it.
I wonder if it can/should be used while other people are using their ults. Being able to do that is what I like most about Delia's ultimate.
quote:
New Arisha Ability: MP Swap
Arisha gains the ability to convert her SP into Mana with her Mana Drain ability. Arisha will drain 250 SP in exchange for 100 Mana, helping her power up for another round of Mana Blade attacks.
quote:
Material Synthesis
Once you get your Season 3 equipment loaded up with Legendary Shards and Essence, it can be hard to find improvements, even if your equipment is still not quite as powerful as it could be. Material Synthesis is your solution to getting past the RNG and directly upgrading each component of your Equipment!
Head to Dianann in Rocheste and with her new Material Synthesis, equip an item with a Rare-Quality Composite Material. Select the Material and a stat to boost to see the costs required. The cost to improve the material can be steep, but the selected stat will always increase to the noted amount with zero chance of failure. You can even change the Special Effects on some Essence materials!
quote:
Dismantle Material
If you've done enough Season 3 Raids, you no doubt have plenty of Shards and Essence that you no longer need. Now, you'll have a use for all those items, by converting them to Fragments. Dianann can now take your unwanted and unused Composite Materials and break them down into Legendary Shard Remnants, which can be exchanged for Legendary Shard Pouches at 5 per pouch, and Sealed or Inherited Power Fragments, which are used in Material Synthesis to further upgrade your equipment.
quote:
Battle Quest Attack Caps
Many Battle Quests throughout Vindictus have a cap on the maximum amount of ATT or M.ATT a participating Mercenary can have, with over-equipped characters seeing their ATT and M.ATT lowered if they exceed that cap. While this has been present in Vindictus for a long time, we have added that information to the Battle Quest's info, to better explain why your power in earlier dungeons may feel depressed.
That being said, given their greater difficulty and other strict restrictions, we have removed the Attack Cap for all Niflheim encounters! You will now be able to face these intense, difficult battles at your full power!
quote:
Equipment Favorites
Inventories can get cluttered, and losing track of where your favorite dress or broadsword is can be a frustrating experience. We've added in a "Favorites" inventory option, allowing you to mark up to 12 items that will always appear below the inventory screen, allowing you to inspect them, upgrade them, equip and dequip them all without having to go hunting in your storage chest for where you left it.
quote:
Rank 7 Enchants in Season 3
We've also gone back to the loot tables for the Season 3 Raid Bosses and added in the most powerful Enchant scrolls, making sure to reward those Enchant Scrolls at the same rate as with the Season 2 bosses. This will allow you to work on gearing up with the best equipment available, without giving up your chance at claiming powerful and rare enchants.
There are a bunch of fixes at the end of the page. You guys should check it out yourselves because wow, there are a lot of bug fixes. Here are the highlights:
Arisha: A bunch of moves now give tiny amounts of SP
Delia: Zenith is better. Wild Star is better. Countering with Full Moon is better.
Fiona: Fixed an exploit involving skills that give extra attacks at high ranks
Hurk: Fixed an exploit involving consecutive uses of Ultimatum
Kai: Fixed a few serious bugs
Karok: Fixed several serious bugs
Vella: Nothing about fixing Biting Cold so who cares
Other:
- The game will now warn you if you try to start a battle without a weapon equipped
- Malina boats finally have an NPC shop in them
-  Only half of the people in a raid need to press Esc to skip a cutscene
-  Easy mode has been removed from Season 2
"People don't want to do Niflheim because it's the third-worst thing ever. How can we fix this?"
quote:
The Abyssal Arena might be the headline, but there's plenty of fun events to serve you for the next month! Return to Niflheim for better rewards, earn Ancient Coins for the Enchant Scroll you want and more! Seven events for your consideration come with the Abyssal Arena update, check them all out below!
Niflheim Bracelet Event
It's time to head back to Niflheim and get those Bracelets fully empowered! Take down Niflheim bosses and claim coupons that you can use to trade in for a variety of rewards, including boxes with Diamond, Sapphire, Ruby or Emeralds guaranteed!
quote:
Gallagher's Golden Winter Dice Game
Gallagher's special board game has returned once again, with new prizes scattered across the game board! Every half an hour you're online, you'll receive a Gallagher's Die, which can be used for a roll on the brand new game board!
Rolling a dice will send Gallagher up to six spots along the board. Each spot you land on, save for the starting location, contains a Golden Winter Coupon Box, each of which contains up to three Golden Winter Coupons.

S3E6 is coming next week and so am I:
quote:
Our final update for 2016 is nearly here and the dark forces arrayed against you have grown more powerful, more deadly and somehow even more bizarre. Join us for the next chapter in Vindictus' epic tale and face down a true abomination with the Blight of the Unseen update!
New Episode: Blight of the Unseen
Next week's update brings out the next episode in Season 3, Chapter 2. In Blight of the Unseen, uncover Berbhe, a small town hidden deep beneath the battlefields of Lochlann. The inhabitants seem friendly enough, but to have survived for so long in the middle of Fomor territory, there's no telling what secrets they might have...
Berbhe serves as the newest town in Vindictus, featuring new characters, new stories to learn and hosting a battle board to give you access to the Season 3 battle quests. This new episode's story revolves around the inhabitants of Berbhe as you defend them from the threats underground across 8 new battle quests, each featuring a new boss to crush.
But not everything is so easy, for behind the dark forces and powerful creatures that seek Berbhe's destruction, a far more monstrous foe lies in wait...
New Raid Boss: The Abomination
The Abomination of Berbhe is like nothing you've fought before. A grotesque, towering horror, resembling a cross between human and insect scaled up a hundredfold, it has no grand plan, no sinister machinations, no mighty goals to aspire to. It exists for one reason alone: To destroy and consume.
The Abomination's massive size and nigh-impenetrable skin make it a force to be reckoned with. While its attacks are clumsy at best, facing a foe with a fifty meter wingspan leaves few safe places... and speaking of wingspan, the Abomination can fly in short bursts, allowing it to reach the high ground and bombard his foes with particularly vile toxins.
Your greatest challenge with the Abomination, however, might be simple attrition. It possesses a powerful shield that nearly negates any blows landed upon it. It is a shield that can only be dispelled by the cacophony of the mighty bell hanging above the arena. Brave the moving and trapped platforms and ascend high with Chain Hooks in order to ring the bell and bring down its shield, or to strike at the beast should it seek refuge there.
Defeating the Abomination will grant you access to a new set of Plate Armor and powerful new weapons, craftable through Dianann's Composite system with the Abomination's Essence that can be obtained by defeating it, or through the Vindicator's Box.

Christmas events have been announced.
quote:
The Blight of the Unseen Update also brings a set of new events for the end of the year. Take advantage of week long buffs, a new Attendance event full of valuable prizes and a unique prize, and battle against the Fomors with the return of the Christmas Defender Event!
Christmas Defender Event
The Fomors are back for our sack of gifts, and there's only one way to fight them off: With pistol emplacements and snowballs. That's right, the classic Christmas Defender Event has returned!
Join up with a party and head to the Christmas Defender Battle in Hoarfrost Hollow, where you'll set aside your silly swords, bows and magic staves and take up battle Tower Defense style. Use the boxes scattered around the area to pick up one of three randomly generated turrets, each with it's own unique function. Place them along the trench and let them pelt the oncoming monsters with blast after blast.
You can also use Snowballs, gathered around the area, to damage and freeze the Fomors in place. Just be careful: While the Fomors won't go after you, your non-snowball weapons will be useless in this area and the Fomors have one goal, destroying the sack of presents at the end.
Defeat all the waves and receive a 2016 Christmas Coupon. You can get one coupon per day from the Christmas Defense battle, another six coupons by completing all of your Daily Missions for the day and three more by collecting 2016 Gift Box Coupons by destroying objects in any battle quest and trading them into the Exchange Shop. There's plenty of amazing rewards for you in the Christmas Coupon Exchange Shop, including Merc Potions, Knit Caps and a most adorable little buddy, the Santa Bear!
quote:
Mysterious Power Event
The Strange Traveler has gotten his paws on something new and unique, a necklace of great power, but one that takes time to grow to full power. Every day that you login to Vindictus, the power of the necklace will grow stronger, but if you fail to do so, the power will wane, reducing its potential. Stay with it, and you'll find yourself with a necklace granting nearly 2,000 ATT and more...
quote:
Golden Time Attendance Event
Since you're going to be logging in anyway to get your maximum Mysterious Power Necklace, why not get something more out of the deal? We're unleashing a massive Attendance and Golden Time Event for the next four weeks, with all-day buffs, powerful boosts for six hours each day and a new prize every day you login!
Day 19: 30x Triumph Medals
Day 20: 1x Max +10 Enhancement Coupon Box
Contains a coupon that allows you to set a single piece of equipment to +8 - +10 with no chance of failure
Day 21: 5x Goibhniu's Enhancement Stone
Day 22: 1x AP 2000 Capsule (Gift)
Day 23: 1x Lubber's Sketchy Quality Coupon
Day 24: 1x Sealed 100% Enchant Scroll
Contains a random high-rank Enchant Scroll with a 100% Enchant Success Rate
Day 25: 1x Restoration 50% Discount Scroll (Gift)
Allows you to restore an item that has been destroyed through Enhance or Enchant as through through the Strange Traveler, but at a 50% discount of AP
Day 26: 1x Exquisite Enchant Rune (Gift)
I'm pretty sure the 50% discount scroll is a new thing. Neat.
quote:
Goodbye 2016, Hello 2017 Event
We're inviting everyone along as we say goodbye and good riddance to 2016 and usher in 2017! All day New Years Eve, fireworks will fire off with every boat departing for battle, and those warriors that stick around to the stroke of midnight will be rewarded with an exclusive title.

New update coming in, I dunno, a week or so?
quote:
In our last update of 2016, you descended into the lost city of Berbhe, learning more about the horrors that turned Lochlann into a corrupted wasteland. With our January update, continue the tale of Vindictus with a new raid, new features and more with the Corruption of the Goddess Update!
New Episode: Corruption of the Goddess
The corruption that poisons the natives of Lochlann and Berbhe, that creates new, powerful creatures every day, shows no sign of stopping. The few citizens of Berbhe have one belief, however: The corruption is not some natural creation, but instead a plague being spread by someone with their own, twisted agenda.
In this latest episode of Vindictus' tale, face off in a brand new Raid battle against a pair of powerful foes: The giant monstrosity Neit and his divine master, Neamhain. Between the massive claws and incredible reach of the monstrosity and the incomparable magics of the winged goddess, this fight will be far more difficult than anything you've faced before.
This battle, the first in the new Squad Battle System, will require more from you than victory through sheer attrition. With the exception of a special Squad HP Potions, no potions can be taken into the battle. Your Goddess Graces cannot be used either and use of Phoenix Feathers is restricted further: Each party member can only be revived three times, and after the first Revive, there is an 8 minute cooldown. Watch your step carefully, know the fights and stay alive.
quote:
Quick Battle Menu
With Battle Quests for all three seasons spread out between four battle boards across multiple locations, finding a party to do battle with is not always the simplest thing imaginable. The new Quick Battle System will streamline this entire process by letting you create and join parties without needing to seek out a Battle Board, or even needing to be in the right town!
quote:
Emote System
We're also expanding the familiar Emotes, the actions triggered by the F5-F11 keys, by giving you more emotes and control of where to place them! With five new Emotes coming to all players for free, and a baker's dozen more hitting the Supply Depot, you'll get to show off your personality, and outfits, in brand new ways!
All of the above, plus new outfits, improvements to the Repair, Skill Awakening and Mail System, new player-designed hairstyles and a gross of bug fixes and other improvements, is coming with the Corruption of the Goddess update later this month!

Between the massive claws and incredible reach of the monstrosity and the incomparable magics of the winged goddess, this fight will be far more difficult than anything you've faced before.
Redeemers Battle
The fight against Neit and Neamhain is the first in the all-new Redeemers Battle system, a high-end, high-difficulty battle mode. With the exception of special Redeemers HP Potions, of which you can bring only 15 into each battle, no potions can be taken in. Your Goddess Graces cannot be used either and use of Phoenix Feathers is restricted further: Each party member can only be revived three times, and after the first Revive, there is an 8 minute cooldown. Watch your step carefully, know the fights and stay alive.
Your rewards for defeating a Squad Battle is not simply a new piece of armor or a fancy weapon, however. Winning the fight will grant you a Box of Conviction: Redeemers for your efforts, containing a random item, such a Season 2 Belt, Earring or Ring, an Extra Departure Ticket for a Redeemer battle, Mysterious or Abyssal Shards that can be used in Material Synthesis, a massive cache of gold or possibly a head gear item matching Neamhain's unique eyes... and you'll always gain credit towards the Redeemers powerful boosts.
The more times you complete an individual Redeemers battle, the more stat bonuses you'll receive, an effect that's always active. Defeat the Sea of Reflection battle to receive the following buffs:
5 Victories: +1 Critical
25 Victories: +1000 HP
50 Victories: +500 ATT/M.ATT and +1 Critical
75 Victories: +1 Critical and Remove ATT Limit +300
100 Victories: +500 ATT/M.ATT, +2 Critical and Full Force, which can activate when using a Smash Attack on a boss, boosting the power of certain character skills
Each Redeemers battle can only be completed once per day, so make sure to get started!

Grand Nobility Set and More
The Corruption of the Goddess Update arrived with a brand new Emote system, and the Supply Depot is bustling with even more Emotes for everyone! Along with new Outfits, Hairstyles, Runes and more, there's plenty to buy, and you've got a big reason to do so: The more NX you spend over the next four weeks, the bigger your bonus rewards...
Check out all the details in the Grand Nobility Set and More post!
Extraction Rune *NEW*: 18,900 NX
- Can be used when Enhancing a +8 or better item enchanted with ATT Limit Removal/Damage Reflection
- If the item is destroyed due to a failed Enhancement, the Rune will be consumed and the Enchant Scroll and Material Synthesis for ATT Limit Removal/Damage Reflection will be placed in your inventory
- The resulting Enchant Scroll will have a 100% chance of success
quote:
Suicide Mission Events
Battling the Redeemers is no simple task. Neit and Neamhain are two of the most powerful beings to ever appear in Vindictus, and the restrictions inherent to the Redeemers System will only make it harder. But there's a grand reward for those that manage to defeat them in the next four weeks. Take advantage of it, the return of the Monster Bingo Event and more!

Uh holy poo poo they are actually making enhancing and enchanting easier!?
http://vindictus.nexon.net/news/21171/coming-soon-alban-festival-update
Actually I read this wrong but they are buffing the F-A enchants and low level enhancing. Also some new minigames and another double season 1 boss fight (Blood Lord and Ekinar).

They added more to the announcement for the update that's coming tomorrow. Here's the new stuff:
quote:
Shorter Season 3 Story Battles
While we love the thrilling battles and intense challenge of Season 3, fighting through the same zones over and over again isn't always the best thing. As such, we've shortened many Season 3 Story Battles, to get you to the most important fights faster, helping you keep the thread of the story going longer:
Deciduous Forest: Reduced to 1 Sector
Glowing Plant: Reduced to 1 Sector
Garden Guardian: Reduced to 1 Sector
A Friend Once Lost: Reduced to 1 Sector
River on Fire: Reduced to 2 Sector
The Fallen Guardian: Reduced to 1 Sector
En Route: Reduced to 1 Sector
A Place of Loss: Reduced to 1 Sector
Statue at the Summit: Reduced to 1 Sector
Lochlann Plains Entrance: Reduced to 1 Sector
Abandoned Ruins: Reduced to 2 Sector
Facing the Inevitable: Reduced to 1 Sector
quote:
Ability Rank Requirement Changes
The Level Requirements for numerous skill and mastery ranks for all of our characters have been updated, requiring higher levels for the vast majority of them. While the acquisition of the base level of these skills and masteries are almost entirely unchanged (only exception: Vella's Glacial Strike ability now requires Level 50 to initially train), this will require your characters to reach higher levels to unlock more powerful attacks.
To compensate for this change, we have also adjusted the Skill Rank Requriements for many items and enchants to require lower-rank skills. Additionally, if you have already purchased those ranks, they will still be usable at their full, purchased power.
quote:
Composite Item Simplification
We've also decided to simplify Composite Items a bit, in order to limit inventory clutter of lower-quality components. Blue-quality Composite materials have been standardized, so that all blue-quality materials for a specific slot are the same. Purple-quality Composite materials have been reduced slightly as well, with only five variations of stats available for each slot. Orange-quality Composite materials are unchanged.
quote:
Cherry Fishing Event
We're unleashing a little event as well for all of those that enjoy baiting their hooks! Grab a Cherry Fishing Rod and fish up special event items, including Enchant Scroll Boxes, Cherry Fishing Coupons and more!
I mean, I'm still going to fish because ~enchant scrolls~ but don't think it's because I like you, you baka event.

The fishing event was shut down because people were using a glitch that lets you fish forever without using any poles

Update's here.
The Gem Box event does a 360:
quote:
Been looking to get the best bracelet possible for your favorite character, but the gems you need just won't drop? For the next two weeks, we're bringing back the Fixed Gem Boxes Event, letting you loot Special Key Gems from Niflheim battles that can be traded for exactly the gem type you need!
As Mr. T might say: It's April, fools! It's not really April, of course. I just like making that joke. I pity you if you don't enjoy corny jokes.
