I took a break from vindictus for a bit now i left just before ep.6 was released, so besides the release of karok, what changed? i have a lvl 51 scythe evie, and i heard there are new skills and attacks, so how does her combat style change?

Actually Scythe evie did have a small change, mana shield is now a skill that you can rank for stronger shields, and theres also now 10 of them. The Titan raid was released. Episode 7 came out including the sewers and Thor raid. Transformations were changed up and Second Stage Transformation came out. To use 2nd stage you need to have like 10 points in other path skills then the 11th point goes into your second trans. Regular trans now has no ap or sp requirement to use, but 2nd stage uses 10 ap and 2 sp bars (instead of 4 like original trans). 2nd stage activates during first stage and lasts 1 minute. It will cancel once the initial 2 minutes from first stage ends, so it is a good idea to use it before the 1 minute mark on your trans timer. (I think once second ends your whole trans ends, so use it a few seconds before 1 minute of your timer is over). Thats all the new stuff i can think of...

past few days I've been mostly unable to log on. Keep getting server error messages. When I do manage to get into a game I'm usually kicked out with another server disconnected error. Someone told me it's because Nexxon has "improved" it's servers. Actually, I registered here on the forum to see what other people were experiencing thanks to these improvements but I don't see ANY posts regarding any problems. Seems to me that this is very very unusual. Looks like moderators are censoring anything not flattering to Nexxon. Are you able to get on?

Small change?

Evie got her Alchemy Box, which lets her use Mana Pistols, Golems and Mercury Traps (no longer a secondary weapon) all from just one hotkey. Pretty important feature to forget. =p

As for the last update, here's most of the changes:

http://vindictus.nexon.net/News/Content.aspx?boardNo=100&contentNo=00CFg

+

Fiona:
- Orchid Strike attack and hit delay reduced, range increased
- Butterfly Swing attack and hit delay reduced, range and damage increased
- Stigma attack and hit delay reduced, range and charged damage increased
- Roll (spacebar + direction) distance increased
Lann:
- Lightning Fury distance increased
- Item Linking: Shift + left click an item in your inventory and it will be "linked" to your chat box. The item name will appear in brackets ( [ ] ) and when players click on it, there will be a full descr1ption window beside it.
- 30 second channel hop prevention.
- Various monster nerfs, too many to list. Mostly, bosses have less HP, less trash mobs spawn, monsters are easier (Gnoll Chieftain swings his hammer horizontally less, etc).
- Battle quest portrait redesigns.
- Title sharing: All of your characters now share titles. If you have one title on one character, but not on the other, the other character can get that title and I believe up to 80% of the stat bonuses once they reach a certain level.
- Titles were re-organized.
- Black Hammer's attack animations now properly represent his hitboxes (seems to me that way)
- Stamina can be regenerated while looting an Evil Core (not while picking up ores/ergs though)
- Invincibility frames when getting up (maybe after a throw/during a non-ES throw as well)
- Evie now lifts objects faster
- A bunch of glitches where super armor/invincibility frames don't work properly (Furious 7 sometimes does not give you invincibility, Blinking sometimes won't let you pass through a boss)
That's all that I know. Probably a few other things I'm missing but can't think of.
