How is vindi now?

[Erubus]

So I haven't played in a long time. The last update I remember is...Titan I think. However, I got locked out of my old account and can no longer play it so I have to start over from level one and level to 60 again. Is the game still going strong? Is the community dead, alive or in the medium?

[Episkey]

I would say that the community is pretty much alive. I would perhaps classify it as a Medium/High?
Well, first off - the level cap is currently 70. So, more to look forward to XD

The gameplay has had some adjustments, but I'm not sure as to what happened after Titan was released.
Maybe someone else can fill you in on that :p

All in all, I still think that Vindictus is a fun game. They are also planning to do a huge change to some gameplay mechanics in Season 2.

The game is pretty alive with the latest update, the addition of Royal Army raids (24-man, dedicated server raid) called Dragon (Elchulus), something about a spider (3 spiders, similar to Nightmare at the Ruins), and Frosted Omen (Giant version of Polar Bear). The update right after Titan includes raid bosses:

 Spoiler:

Ingkells, Aghlan the Golem, Glas Ghaibleann, Succubus, Thor (All of these in Rocheste), and from Colhen Controlled Black Hammer, Lionotus, and Colru the Golem.

Economy has been fluctuating a lot as usual so prices might not be the same as when you played. No new skills have been added, no new characters either, but Karok has been updated with his second weapon, the Cestus (a sort of knuckler).

Actually, if he hasn't played since Titan...

Karok is new, he was added after Ep8.
Hammer Fiona got a buff (snuck in with Karok), making Hammers the better weapon for Fionas.
There's a recent trend of "Defence Stacking", which changes the "endgame".
Gust Sting, Pummel Storm, and Moon Splitter are new for Lanns.
Petal Toss, Honey Bee Sting, Rose Thorns, Downward Counter, and HS Counter are new for Fionas.
Blade Shift, Clipped Wings, and Demon Splitter are new for Evies.

 Spoiler:

Also there's another solo mission against Shining Shakarr.

I might've missed a few skills, but oh well.

The community is sort of in the medium for me. It is important to note that lower leveled missions have very little people running them.

[Erubus]

Well I think I can handle the earlier missions by myself. OH and I was here for karok. Forgot that was after titan. Also I see that they've released Kai into KR. Any news when we'll be getting him?

[MareneCorp]

Kai, along with episode 11, can be expected sometime this year (summer?).

Kai, along with episode 11, can be expected sometime this year (summer?).

Episode 11 doesn't exist on any of the servers.

Ep9.5 is the 24 man raid system.
Ep10 is the next episode. However they haven't released an Episode paired with a character since Lann/Fiona and Ep1/2. Regardless, Kai and Ep10 are the next two major updates we can expect, with most people pinning the release dates for summer.

Oh, I got 10 and 11 mixed up xD. And it can be expected during the summer, since that's when Nexon usually brings the biggest updates of the year, for any game.

Guess I'll start playing sometime this week then. Going to have to make a new lann. Anyone on east server that willwant to help is free to :D
