https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCk5XnxI46U There's a new batch of goodies from the second gremlin check-in event. This event is back and it was barely gone in the first place. Log in for an hour, collect your reward. At the beginning you'll get second chance coupons you can spend to catch up if you miss a day or a few. Notable rewards of the relatively mundane sort include VVIP capsules, dye ampoules, Godly and New Era material boxes, unstable enhance and enchant runes, premium armor fusion runes, and fatigue potions. There are also a handful of very special rewards scattered amongs: A permanent storage ticket, a rare tail box, a permanent hair coupon, a superior pet box, a +1 quality coupon, a "petal wings" box, a "succubus couch" object, yet another primal flame box (but this one lets you choose between red and green), and finally, the Gremlin's Outfit Gift Package. It contains an outfit of your choice like the last box, but this one also contains outfit versions of character-specific armors. So, you can have a nice little blast from the past and put your Lann in Dark Crest again, like in the olden days. However, I will note that the game is not clear on whether character-specific outfits are in addition to the legendary outfit or if they're an alternative. Nobody is asking the tough questions on the forums, but for now I would assume you can only get one outfit from the box.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxxqdrrpgZc A couple of events are coming. They were announced weeks ago but I didn't mention them because why bother? Well, now it's botherin' time. The Gods Might Be Crazy quote:Gods of Might Event If you want a thorough explanation of how Redeemer stats work, they decided to stick one on that page. How you gain progress, how you see your progress, and what bonuses are unlocked and when, mostly. It's nice to finally have an official reference but it's odd that they put it there, now, of all times. When Bingos Kaliede quote:Kaleidobingo Event Hey, you know what would be great? Bringing back the bingo event that gave the /cheerleader and /rave emotes. Several characters have been released since that event and they are shamefully lacking in silly emotes.

How are the fist lady and gun lady doing and how terrible is getting a character strong enough to do endgame stuff? I am considering playing this garbage game again.

Bakalakadaka posted:How are the fist lady and gun lady doing and how terrible is getting a character strong enough to do endgame stuff? I am considering playing this garbage game again. EDIT: Someone posted translated developer notes in another discord. Original page in Korean. First bit's about botters and how they work, and says that one measure that's being taken to frustrate botters is to turn normal battles into solo battles. The idea is that they're already tuned to be easy to beat solo, but botters work by running full parties to farm them more efficiently. Which I guess is a logical next step but what if you actually need help, like for real? Could be a problem for some of the tougher normal battles, especially ones that used to be raids. Second bit is about this: quote:[64-bit Client Development Progress Note] ArchWizard fucked around with this message at 23:03 on Oct 15, 2020 |

https://twitter.com/slothybun/status/1317934714624225280 It's update day. More friendship junk. More freebies. And, finally, a Halloween event. Update v2.69 quote:[Patch Notes] v.2.69
The second big addition: If you have a level 105 character on your account, all other characters who are below level 100 will get boosts. Characters from 1-99 will get 5 more AP at the end of each battle. Characters who are 80-99 get 30% more exp at the end of a battle on top of that. Also, to help people who aren't spending all of their Partholon points on old titles, there are tomes. These tomes let you complete blocks of sidequests so you don't have to run the same stupid maps over and over again. There are four tomes for season 1 and one tome each for Seasons 2 and 3. There's also a more general boost for everybody: In addition to holding down CTRL to go through dialogue faster, you can press Shift to skip entire blocks of dialogue. The third big update: Pet skills work a bit differently now. They were pretty bad before but they've been tweaked somewhat to be less useless. The big thing here is that they're now usable in Season 3 battles and Masaka Smash, of S3 gear fame, is now a pet skill. Mmm, moussaka. The passive skills, like wider mining or item search ranges for pets and greater secondary weapon capacity, are also easier to get. Finally, the last big change: Colhen is now decorated for Halloween. Another dice game quote:Slice 'n' Dice Game Event This Pumpkin's not so Great quote:How the Gremlins Boo'd the Pump Kin

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KifD9uUWj80 It's the Vindictus 10th Anniversary Event Hooray quote:Ten Years Old! Check-In Event Log in every day for the next ten days to get rewards. Rewards include a title, 30 fatigue potions, 100 Damascus Steel, 3 Grade 2 Shards, a "B-day Stool" object (?) (!?!?), a rare gremlin pet, and an outfit box. This outfit box is the one people have been anticipating for months, the one that gives an outfit version of a character-specific armor set. The box can be passed around your account so don't panic if you accidentally collect it on a character you don't want to get an outfit for.

Bad news from future_updates: This game sucks now.quote:[Battles Adjustments] quote:- Adjusted the battle patterns for BOSS enemies of the following battles: quote:- Adjusted the number of areas in which battles take place in [Berbhe] area; Also, character changes: quote:[Common] quote:- Changed the following character's skills, with the exception of suppression skills, to be treated as dodge, rather than fully-invincible. quote:[Pact Skills] Now to quickly summarize character-specific changes: Sword Lann, Kai, Vella, Teide Hurk: Faster and just generally better dodge skills Sword Fiona: Stronger kick. Amaranth Kick got unnerfed, Ivy Sweep restores a little stamina if you manage to hit someone with it Staff Evie: Mana Amber is faster to release, freezing raid bosses is less common Arisha: I dunno, some bullshit about caps on MP gain. Essentially, the more MP you have, the less you'll gain from active skills like Resonance. This will, I assume, make the MP overflow trick harder to do. Miri: quote:[Miri] Belle: Now consumes stamina when charging her axe, which kind of sucks because that means it won't just a free run speed boost There's quite a bit more to this pile of future updates but it's mostly minor bugfixes or minutiae or otherwise plain uninteresting. Some, like the Custom Battle addition, don't even make sense to me. Maybe they'll be better-explained when they get here.

More news from #future_updates. A lot of what I described earlier has made it onto the KR servers, but there's also a surprise: Dullahan gear components will no longer be obtainable with Seals of Bravery and Astera mats will be subbed in. It'll be the end of an era. Better late than never, I guess, but the seal costs for level 100 components is going to be higher than for 95 mats.

Wow, Kael only came out two days ago and we're already being teased with a new character in #future_updates (Source URL for the images in the original Korean) After a momentary diversion, Nexon is going back to widening the gender gap even more. They're adding a new lady character with a rapier and a whole lot of Delia players are furious. I don't know what full-scale battle means. I hope it's not a S2-style mega-dungeon. Balor has a coterie of henchgods that he's currently sending after us. This new Redeemers boss is probably one of them. "ur gacha munny funded the anime figurines" They're kind of neat but something seems off about them. Mostly it's the faces. They look more like Genshin Impact characters than Vindi characters. Oh right, you shouldn't be giving these people money until they remove Fatigue. That's also a good reason not to buy the figurines.

Enough information has been released about the new character to justify a decent-sized post. First is this teaser video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fjaqHnNQ4g Like Lethor's first teaser video, it tells us almost nothing about how her character fights. Today they put a translation of this dev note in the official Discord to explain a few things. quote:Greetings, mercenaries! quote:<Tessa's special skill [Mark]> quote:<Tessa's Active Skills> quote:[Active: Enstatite] is a powerful skill, that allows Tessa use all the [mana] she has to project a number of rapiers and send them at the enemy. I don't know what they were going for with that skill name. quote:We wish everyone to be safe and healthy, as the winter has already arrived.

Today they released a skill video and you can get a good look at Tessa doing the zorro thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saB_cXkL4NE Something they didn't mention in the earlier write-up and barely show in this video is that Tessa has a "jem" gauge system. Some of her skills require jems to use and some skills remove the jem cost for other skills. I hit up the tessa channel in the official Discord and they say jems regenerate on their own and when you detonate marks.

Hi vindictus thread, I made a lethor and kael but sadly I can't afford to gear them for current raids so life is unfair. The Christmas event is p avg compared to the gremlin races but it's OK. I'm just farming the ornaments and free steel. I feel like I've run out of stuff to do for actual character progress beyond reforging armor.

Alder posted:Hi vindictus thread, Farm Redeemers: Actually fair to weaker players since the stat requirements are low, there's no penalty for failing to do meaningful damage, and the rewards are more reliably, uh, rewarding. At the very least, make sure your characters have each beaten Neam four times and Balor and Brigid once each for the stat bonuses. RAR: Rewards aren't often good, but when they're good they're very good. But hey, it literally costs nothing to run. No Fatigue, no equipment durability, and you don't even need to heal yourself because there's no shortage of people who will revive you for easy seals. The titles for beating the same boss five times give okay stat boosts. Abyssal Arena: Like RAR, it's a source of titles and occasionally valuable drops. Long, boring, costs too much Fatigue. Farm S3: Run current and former raids to get essences and shards and chunks to break down into fragments for material synthesis. Run normal battles to get godly mats for material synthesis. Farm Ein Lacher: Not terribly rewarding, but it's good practice and the stat gains from the titles add up. The bosses scale to you and it's solo so you don't need to wait for parties to form. Red Moon: Also long and tedious and costly in terms of Fatigue, but the New Era mats are reliably valuable. It won't make you stronger but it'll make you a little bit richer. Plus, it's another activity you can engage in when you don't feel like being social. Farm PvP: Artifacts are good and judicious use of them in battle can make you much stronger. They can also be Infused with stats, which is often overlooked.

Thought I'd try Vindictus again cause the combat was fun once upon a time and turns out it's gone from two characters with a third coming to oh god oh gently caress who do I choose. Sylas seems fun so far but so do a bunch of them. Definitely drawn to high mobility flashy characters or generally higher skill ceiling stuff but just from playing Sylas so far it seems like he at least has two good attacks that I'll probably be spamming in 'real' content.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPeSpy6V3d0 Maintenance happened last night and now there's a new event. It's Pat quote:Happy St. Patrick's Day Event The second part of the event has to do with Clover Tickets. Every day, each character who logs in will get two tickets in the mail. You can also earn two more tickets every day by doing all of your dailies. Clover Tickets can be exchanged for goodies. Green dye ampoules (12 coupons each, 3 per character), a new title (12 coupons, one per character), a 2-week epaulet (8 coupons each, 1 per character), and Clover Juice (1 coupon each). The epaulet's good because it grants LUK and BAL. The Clover Juice is a reskinned party merc pot, which is also quite good for a leftovers reward. The last part of the event is that you can now buy green hair and skin colors from the shop. You may have a free permanent hair or appearance alteration coupon banging around your NX tab since both have been given out recently. You can also get green hair for a week if you buy an Unlimited Hair Pass from the AP shop. You know, if you have AP to spare.

ArchWizard posted:A while ago they added quest tomes that allow you to instantly complete all sidequests. Also, we just had an event that let you skip the first two seasons on a new character and go right to level 80. The free 95 gear they give you doesn't let you get all the way through Astera, which is the end of season 3. It barely lets you participate in Season 4 raids. Maybe they'll let people skip S1-3 when the freebies creep up in value. Does the sidequest tome give you all the rewards too? Also not surprised I missed another level up event.
