Redeemers Hell Mode is here, whatever that means
quote:
Redeemers: Welcome to Hell Event
Start Date End Date
October 10th (After Maintenance) October 23rd (Before Maintenance)
Heroes of Vindictus, we hear that some of you find the Redeemers battles not challenging enough. Well, let’s see if you still think the same after taking part in the Redeemers Hell mode. From today on, there will be two Hell modes added to the Redeemers battles: [Hell] Dark Side of the Moon and [Hell] Sea of Reflection.
You can access the Hell mode by completing 5 regular Redeemers battles. And IF and only IF you do end up accomplishing the impossible, then you will be rewarded with an exclusive title: Fire-touched.
If you are up for the death-ridden journey, step into the burning battles. And see you in Hell.
Please Note:
You can access the Redeemers Hell mode by completing 5 regular Redeemers battles.
Redeemers Hell mode can only be completed once a week.
All rewards will be given out during the October 23rd maintenance.
Redeemers Hell mode will be categorized as separate battles.

The Abyssal Arena Event
Start Date
October 10th (After Maintenance)
End Date
October 30th (Before Maintenance)
As most of you may be aware, the Abyssal Arena is no place to play it safe. And for those of you that aren’t aware of the Abyssal Arena, here’s a link for your reference: Abyssal Arena
As difficult the Abyssal Arena is, it sure is a rewarding feeling to break free from each floor to drop down to the next round. And to boost your Abyssal Arena enjoyment, we are increasing the drop rate of obtaining the Abyssal Shard Grade 1 and including the Premium Enhancement Rune drop in addition to this boost! So jump right in and enjoy the boost!
The Royal Army Raid Event
Start Date
October 10th (After Maintenance)
End Date
October 30th (Before Maintenance)
There has been an upgrade to the Royal Army Raid completion rewards during the event period! Find out the details of the event below:
Your attack and defense stats will be buffed during the event period.
The drop rate of Mysterious Glass Bottle (Lv. 80) will be increased during the event period.
There will be additional possibility of Airtight Enhancement Rune drop during the event period.
Jesus Saves (the Tiny Gremlins)
quote:
A monster appeared a while ago and started forcing the Gremlins to grow. And it seems like he is trying to use them to somehow build a Fomorian army. Save the Gremlins trapped in the twisted dimensional maze within the given time and you might even be able to find and defeat the monster who forced the Tiny Gremlins to grow.
Save the Tiny Gremlins by participating in the Gremlin’s Bizarre Journey Battle from Perilous Ruins or using Quick Battle! (Please note that you must be level 60 or above to access the event dungeon).
During the event period, you will receive one special Entry Pass every day. And you can also purchase an special Entry Pass from the Strange Traveler for 100,000 Gold, allowing you to get maximum of two special Entry Passes per day. The special Entry Pass will give you access to the Gremlin’s Bizarre Journey.
After you help out saving Tiny Gremlins, Gremlin will reward you with the Gremlin’s Appreciation Box for your help. But wait, the Gremlin is feeling extremely generous and will reward you with more Gremlin’s Appreciation Boxes if you complete the dungeon faster. The Gremlin’s generosity doesn’t stop here. He will give you a Gremlin’s Appreciation Coupon with every Gremlin’s Appreciation Box as well! (Gremlin’s Appreciation Coupon can be used at the Exchange Shop.)
On top of what you get from the Gremlin’s Appreciation Boxes, you will also receive different titles depending on your completion as shown below:
Complete the Gremlin’s Biarre Journey battles 10 times and receive the title: Champion of Gremlins
Complete the Gremlin’s Biarre Journey battles 20 times and receive the title: Friend of Gremlins
Complete the Gremlin’s Biarre Journey battles 30 times and receive the title: Savior of Gremlins
Finally, a matter of minor interest: Colhen is now decorated for Halloween.

I suppose it's past time to post a proper summary of the update. I could have done it yesterday but I was too busy playing Vindictus.
From the top:
Patch notes. All of them this time.
quote:
Max Level Increase
Lv.95 -> Lv.100
2 New Raids
Claire
Elchulus
Enhancement System Renewal
Percentage of enhancement success rate will be provided for efficiency.
If the enhancement fails two consecutive times, the next enhancement attempt will be guaranteed.
'Enhance Bonus' advantage will be applicable when enhancing +11 Enhancement to +15 Enhancement of equipment with rare composite materials.
There has been a 'Reforge' menu added for all items below +14 Enhancement items.
Depending on the equipment, you will need 'Damascus Steel' (for the existing materials and reforging).
'Damascus Steel' can be obtained through the raids on 'Episode 2: End of the Hero’s Path' and 'Onslaught Seal Shop.'
Accessory Enhancement System
For all earrings, belts, and rings that are for Lv. 85 +, there will be additional 'Attack' and 'Counterforce' increase through the newly added 'Accessory Enhancement System.'
'Accessory Enhancement' will require AP, gold, and existing materials and there will be no penalties up to +20 Enhancement.
Along with the 'Accessory Enhancement,' the Season 3 monsters will have something called ‘Counterforce Resistance.’
You will need to have higher ‘Counterforce’ stats than the monster’s ‘Counterforce Resistance’ in order to defeat them.
Onslaught Seasons
Season 2 and 3 dates confirmed.
Two raids. They both require Counterforce and lots of it. It's stupid and I'll get to that in a bit. I've tried both of them and aside from the Counterforce thing, they're not especially difficult mechanically. Claire fights like Ulchas and has some dirty tricks besides, but at least she doesn't steal life. Neo-Elchy has some vicious range with some of his attacks but isn't terribly fast and doesn't fly around much. There is a QTE sequence when he does fly around and you ride on him for reasons? We don't know why because the one time my party did it during a practice run, we all either failed to get on or failed to stay on. Whoops.
But all this elides the fact that Counterforce is horseshit and not having a ton means you will do basically no damage to these bosses. It's terrible. Really, just horribly bad.
Enhancement changes! That's a big one. There's more transparency, little bonuses to success to help break failure streaks, and the new Reforge system. I thought people kept bringing up Damascus Steel because it's for level 100 gear but it's for something very special. Remember when the devs decided that breaking a piece of equipment and restoring it with AP should lock its upgrades in place? Now, Reforging lets you take restored gear and make it possible to upgrade it again. Like we could before. Wait, this is a dumb change isn't it.
Speaking of dumb changes: Accessory enhancement. You can spend enhancement elixirs, power fragments, season 3 cloth/leather/iron ore, and AP to upgrade your Season 3 accessories. You can take an accessory to +20 and there's no penalty for failing an enhancement aside from wasted resources. Every rank gives a tiny amount of ATT/M.ATT and one or two points of Counterforce. I said it before and I'll say it again because I did a pretty good job the first time around:
The whole thing's stupid because we're supposed to spend tens of millions of gold on accessories and enhancement to increase an arbitrary stat to overcome another completely arbitrary stat so we can do two story raids.
Damascus Steel event, thankfully not held in Damascus
quote:
Damascus Steel Event & More!
Start Date End Date
November 6th (After Maintenance) December 11th (Before Maintenance)
During the event period, we have decided to add the 'Damascus Steel (Binding)' item at the AP Shop!
However, it's only sold for a limited time and at a limited quantity per week so don't miss this chance to get your 'Damascus Steel!'
* Note: Only 3 Maximum 'Damascus Steel (Binding)' can be purchased per week. (Total 12 Maximum per Month.)
Temporal Box Event
Start Date End Date
November 6th (After Maintenance) December 11th (Before Maintenance)
The Exchange Shop will close on December 18th, 2018 (Before Maintenance)
We're throwing out prizes every hour, but you're going to have to work a bit to unlock them. Every hour, up to five times per day, you'll be given a Temporal Box containing a random item and a coupon to spend at the Exchange Shop. You won't be able to open the box simply, however, the Temporal Keys required can be found by completing Battle Quests and slaying the boss, or sold from the Strange Traveler for 150,000 Gold!
Every 1 hour spent in-game, you will be rewarded a Temporal Box (Max. 5 per Day).
Temporal Boxes can only be opened with Temporal Keys that can be acquired in one of two ways:
The Strange Traveler's Warm Welcome Shop sells Temporal Keys for 150,000 Gold each.
Killing bosses in battle quests have a 50% chance of rewarding a Temporal Key.
Temporal Boxes contain a random item, plus a Temporal Coupon that can be taken to the Exchange Shop for a selection of items.

Speaking of coming back
quote:
Returning Mercenaries Event
Start Date End Date
November 6th (After Maintenance) Until Further Noticed[sic]
Welcome back Mercenaries and check out what we have prepared as your welcoming gifts!
[CHARTS AND WHATNOT]
Please Note:
You will be qualified as a Returning Mercenary if you have not logged in for the past 30 days.
If you complete a battle with a Returning Mercenary, the Returning Mercenary and their party members will all receive a coupon.
So what's everyone doing since they removed the 100% and +13 runes? I'm just wondering if I'm just as lost on wep progression 
Alternatively, you can do what I do and accept that the whales will be carrying you through raids. Noblesse oblige, motherfuckers.
One last thing: Last night I found Leohart and he said to tell TaIwin and Neomara that he misses them.
One other last thing: They killed off a bunch of characters. Macklin's dead. The Pontiff's army captured the Royal Army and they executed everybody but Ronaun. Ronaun betrayed them all, including Riordan, in order to save his own skin. Which is ironic since one of the reasons Riordan is such a major shitlord is that he betrayed Keaghan to the Pontiff's Court so haha what goes around comes around, am I right?

The missing +12 gear gift is a huge slap in the face all the returners who came back a few days ago and missed it. I'm back on hiatus since I'm stat-gated from raids again.
Welp, cya everyone in 30 days.

 Grimden is coming December 11th
quote:
Grimden was once a wanderer, traveling around the world spreading the goddess’ love.
And one day was kidnapped by a mysterious man who appeared out of nowhere.
There, a strange man lead Grimden down a dark path, a pitch black path that shone no light…
Grimden was then reborn, into the merciless deadly assassin he became today.
He knows no mercy, only pain from the past… 
quote:
Explore the darkest paths with Grimden.
The deadly assassin strikes swiftly along with his cloning abilities, making his attacks unpredictable.
Make sure you hold your breath, as Grimden will strike you within the blink of an eye.
There won’t be enough time for you to plan your next move against this deadly assassin.
So anyway: If you want to make a Grimden, click on over to that page up there and pre-register so you get the goodies. Note that one of the registration rewards is a ninja outfit that can be transferred within an account so it's not locked to any Grimdens you create.

quote:
From that day forward, the boy was extensively educated and trained for combat under the guide's watch.
They intended to transform him into a powerful weapon that would obey their every command.
These assassins kidnapped young orphans or poor children and trained them to be ruthless killers.
They worked for wealthy individuals who required their unique abilities and services.
I logged in to my characters and some of them had gotten a message about compensation for the Hell Mode event. According to Nexon, the whole affair was a clusterfuck. People weren't supposed to get a title for finishing a Hell Mode run (since that's nearly impossible), but for attempting a Hell Mode run. The announcement for the event never got this right and a lot of people didn't even bother with Hell Mode because they heard it was going to be a tremendous waste of their time. So, Nexon did something very nice today: They gave the title to those few people who won a Hell Mode run, everybody who attempted a Hell Mode run, and everybody who had unlocked Hell Mode by finishing a Redeemer's raid five times.
UPDATE: Yet another surprise for us. The bravery seal shop now sells dullahan essences and legendary chunks. And yes, they're orange.
