Today's numbers come from Colru/Ship Graveyard and Keaghan/Misty Moonlight. Eazy for my high-level characters, but my 68 Lynn and 70 Evie will have to take the hard way out.

Today's lucky number is 12. Ahglans and Shamirs should stay at home today to avoid conflict with friends. As always, beware of Cancers.

While hosting Ahglan boats I learned about a Vindictus blog with neat gifs: http://coronaplease.tumblr.com. Visit it just to see Angry Teen Glas, who is apparently a real Season 3 boss.

Today is a double day. Number 13 comes from Angry Old Man Glas and Longboot Matty in SG. Number 14 comes from Bark and the Giant Polar Bear in Dethrone the White Tyrant. Every once in a while I think about farming GPB for titles. Then I remember he keeps coming up during events, so why not wait? This is another opportunity to add a few more notches to all of my belts.

Plus, you know, gently caress Bark.

Yeah, same, he's a boring raid. Anyways, I finally got a lako fang after running for the last 2-3 yrs on and off. Sadly, only gained 13m for all my effort. I swear, everyone who said they made a lot of gold from S2 raid drops are liars.

They were right to say it a year ago, when Lako Fangs were 30m. Or two years ago, when Lako Fangs were 50m. I don't think people are eager to spend after getting a ton of skellington gear and with S3's seal shop update incoming. I'm even holding off on buying 70 gear for my Evie and Lynn because drat, they got so few seals as it is.

EDIT: I checked my post history and was very disappointed. I also found out I got my bark barrel frag on Christmas 2013. I haven't gotten poo poo from bark since then.

True, back when TR were 100m each. Good times. My gifted 7 day cadet badge doesn't really seem to make my raiding any easier too. Perhaps I should clear the bingo early and return to turtle mode for now.

Number 15 comes from Silberin and Juggernaut. Number 16 comes from Lionotus and Alteron.

ALTERON PAUL 2016

EDIT: Oh yeah, I suppose it's important to note that you should not confuse Alteron, the final TD reaper boss, with Pantheum, the reaper raid boss. You probably know that if you recognize Lionotus as a daily raid boss, but maybe you didn't.

Today's number comes from Big Horn Yeti and Cromm Cruaich.

Crom Cruach (Old Irish pronunciation /ˈkɾˠɔmˠ ˈkɾˠuəç/; modern Irish Cromm Crúaich) was a god of pre-Christian Ireland. According to Christian writers, he was propitiated with human sacrifice and his worship was ended by Saint Patrick.

For those of you who can't be bothered to decipher IPA runes, here's how you actually pronounce Crom Cruach.

Today's bingo number comes from Inquisitor Ulchas. They don't know which non-raid boss can drop it.

But who cares about that? The Fiona Revamp is here. A bunch of skills have been tweaked to be better and there are two new skills. Shield Deflection lets you block without interrupting your combo. It's similar to chain Vella's Biting Cold, but harder to use because you have to press Tab to activate it. Then there's Iron Defense, which increases defense by 75% for 30 seconds. Taunt has been buffed so it can be used with any shield. Now, here's the biggest loving deal in the whole revamp:

SHIELDS ARE NO LONGER BREAKABLE.

Holy poo poo. Hooooly poo poo.

Oh yeah, Lann and Evie got super ultimate skills. Lann's Comet is a lockdown skill that does crazy nuts damage but has crazy nuts cooldown of 20 minutes. Evie's Meteor Swarm also has a 20-minute cooldown but is a knockdown skill, not a lockdown skill. It doesn't seem fair that Evie can cast it every 20 minutes but Tellah could only cast it once before he died :smith:

EDIT: The hot springs are in. You cannot use them just yet. The dock fires got moved. (One extra syllable).

There's a new Easy mode that makes enemies super-weak and lets you carry even more useless secondary weapons, but you only get one core from the boss and you have to solo it. At first I thought this was for loser idiots, but it could be a good way to get through the storylines without waiting for a party.

Irukul's the non-daily bingo boss, by the way.

I'm pretty sure 50-69 chests aren't worth getting unless you want party feathers.

I didn't mention this but Iron Defense only works with large shields and they made most hammer attacks slightly faster.

It's about time they did that. If you're using a small shield, the correct thing to do after a perfect guard is counterattack, not keep using your weenie attacks for losers.

It's another double number day. 22 comes from Havan or the original, non-lovely Blood Lord. 23 comes from Controlled Black Hammer or King Stoneshell from Ship Graveyard.

These bosses are all pretty easy, actually. Doubly so if you fight them on Easy mode.
