Today came with a surprise announcement regarding character slots.

No more will old-timers have to wonder if they'll need to pony up ten bucks every time a new character is released. Soon, every account gets twenty-eight character slots for free and Nexon will stop selling premium character slots. I wonder what led to this decision?

more underpants sales, probably

Honestly as someone who mained sword Vella I'd be happy with the random flinch/knockdown removal if it had been done like 5 years ago lmao.

Sword Vella can chain Typhoon Slash off of more smashes. All of her attacks have better range. A lot of her moves got damage buffs. Cross Cut and Typhoon Slash are exceptions; they got a 5% reduction in damage, which is minor. And speaking of Cross Cut: They fixed a bunch of situations so you can actually, you know, use it. There's a big list of enemy attacks that you couldn't cross cut before but can now.

are they specifically trying to make me come back? lmfao

OK so I foolishly decided to give the game another shot and after making an Eira and breezing through the story through most of S3 (just past where you unlock neamhain) the "new player" experience is pretty dang good right now with all the free stuff you get while leveling. And there's 18 characters so honestly a lot of content even if you don't want to get involved in the endgame raid and gacha grind.

Danny next week and we gettin' some drop rate buffs and a big redeemer crit buff

quote:

The difficulty of earning Redeemers progress stats, which haven't been applied in NA and Europe, will be improved.

Adjustments have been made to the previous progress stats that were earned by progress so that players can gain CRIT RTE +4 upon reaching 5% progress in each Redeemers battle.

Whoever made this posted a bunch of their Genshin in-game cosplays on the vindi forums but no Beidou, Ningguang, or Yae Miko. Oh well.

They're working on adding Hero Plus Mode to battles, which is a new difficulty level designed for players who want skilled play instead of facetanking and mashing the dang ol' potion button and VVIP grace button. The idea is to let you do a harder version of a battle in exchange for higher drop rates. But you also have to spend two departures per win instead of one.

This is actually something I wanted even down to using 2 departures lmao. I'd rather do half as many fights that take twice as long.

I'm pretty sure they're removing it because they know people only do it to trade seals and it's not worth the upkeep.

at least they didn't nerf vella's counterattacks (because those are 90% of her damage)

[*]It will be possible to "craft avatar from previous equipment". I guess/hope that it means it'll be possible to turn certain cosmetic gear items into outfit items.

I'm guessing this means turning regular armor into outfits (like the character-specific armor set outfits that they hand out sparingly but for everything)
