The new East guild, FartLords, was created relatively recently as nobody still playing can accept invites to Like A Somebody. We don't have a ton of people yet, but apply and post your name in the thread and I'll get you in. I still have a character in the old guild and see some people are signing on, so there are likely more goons who haven't transitioned yet; likely people who don't keep up with the thread. Friends are welcome too, just do some posts. If I can figure out some other people goony enough to check the thread before accepting apps I can promote some officers, but I've been around since beta; I'm not going anywhere.

As far as channel 100 goes, I wasn't aware that was a thing. We can probably make that a thing? I'm kinda surprised 100 is empty, it seems like a number someone would be using already.

There's only a couple small groups who use it, and they're mostly day crew. I am in a small lvl 20 guild already (with guild storage).

A lot of the newer heros are very easy to solo. If you're a returning player you get a set of 54ish items that can carry you a long time.

I don't do too much group stuff because of the lag this week, but you can solo everything upto at least the prairie.

Season 2 is a bit harder but still doable under 50. If you try to do the raids right as they unlock they will one shot you constantly, you should get like 10 levels above the minimum required.

Hurk is definitely badass. Tanky as hell, moderate range and decent ways to close gaps. Much better than my karok so far


I really liked when they did the level up "jump" event this summer or whenever where you got a character at lvl 50 and could skip having to do all the story missions.

Lann and Fiona are getting more band-aids on their problems. Kai and Vella are getting more skill ranks and skill titles. Evie and Karok each get a thing. They're also adding a ferry that runs between Rocheste and Malina, which isn't quite so exciting but it's pretty good.

Is everyone playing this game level 70/80 or something? I spent way too much of a weekend a couple weeks ago leveling my scythe Evie to 60 in a mad rush. I logged back in recently and I realized...there are zero boats on basically any of the 60+ stuff that I can access to. Is no one playing anymore or is it just really spread out one you hit higher levels? It is kind of frustrating because I am unable to find boats where I reach the point where everything can 2/3-shot me on a character that has really really slow attacks. Will this get better if I hit some magical higher level?

Once you're 70+ all you pretty much do is run your daily S2, and then run mostly S2 raids.

I am lvl 77 and still run most of the stuff just for xp. If you ever need anyone to do stuff with, hit me up on steam (steam name: andichu) or IGN: Jesselyin.

I used to play this a long time ago before Kai/Vella/HURK were in the game. Has the game changed from level 1-55 at all or did they just stack more stuff on top of existing content? I'm considering coming back but I think I'd rather play Hurk than my level 64 Lann, mostly because I'm broke and have no weapon after trying to +11 my Raiders. If I do come back though it'd be with a couple of friends and they had trouble stomaching the grind the first time around. Is it easier to level?

People with more than one account can multibox and bring their other characters into battles and raids to AFK level them. Also, those "one reward per character" events are better if you have one character per account.

The only reason I have one account is because I believe it's weird to have characters that you don't want to actually play. Then again, I didn't complain when people let me AFK in raids to level my Evie. Because playing Evie is bullshit.

They streamlined the story and made it easier to level. The side plots like the friendship sword, Shayla's lost note, fetching hangover herbs for Brakkis and the ogre, those are still there and I haven't noticed any side stories missing. What I have noticed is that certain stuff is no longer a story requirement - Irukul is completely skipped and at level 70 I still don't have the quest to do him, Blood Lord is no longer required for progression, Klaus is a side story (was he always? I don't remember) and stuff like that.

The grinding is significantly lessened thanks in part to the presence of season 2 missions/quests. You can get to (or past) 60 just playing S1 story/side quests, though.

They did away with some of the poo poo like Persuer's Ring where you had to go back and grind through every time that one dumbass Kobold showed up and cleaned up the 40-50 grind (which is literally the worst in the game.)

Since the patch, I noticed that drops from Perilous Ruins and Hoarfrost Hollow now NPC for 0 gold. I also noticed that equipment drops that NPC for 0 gold cannot be dismantled. Today, while checking the Vindictus forums for today's bingo missions, I found out that this is part of an attempt to frustrate gold-farming bots. In addition to making low-level drops worthless, low-level missions give absolutely no money as a reward. A side effect is that it's now borderline impossible for completely new players to get money since the only way to get money is to put drops on the market and whoops it's not as if those drops are worth anything to the people who have money.

Nexon: Kind of Dumb.

Yeah, but they also *hand* you everything you'd ever need till level 20 when you start getting money.
