[MH KR] S2E2: Twilight in the Desert - Crossgun/Twin Blade & Raids

  Sword Lann's jump smash is the best jump smash ever, and it gave me a reason to still play sword Lann. It's fast and gives a "higher" critical rate, due to jump smash doing THREE smash hits. With my usual LR jump smash combo, that chance increases to FIVE smash hits. Low animation rebound too, so I can do something else quickly after the jump smash.
  
  ... Oh, are we talking about its physics? Yes, it's very bad. If it was more "gravity" based, and we had control over our jump height, that would totally "fix" the clunky mess of jumping in Vindictus. I mean, cmon DevCat. It's a Source Engine. At least use the typical First-Person Shooter jump physics.

  Jumping is ok as long as it's not a method to dodge stuff. That's why I say forced jumping.

  I've just started playing again and found out that I am outdated in terms of gear. First day back and I already broke my +8 dreamwalker. How do you make money in this game right now? Is Lann even viable as it stands now... anyway give me moneys pelase
• Invertex wrote on 2013-01-05 05:09
  If you want help making money etc, please just make a seperate thread in the Questions subsection. All of that really has nothing to do with the S2E2 content update (except maybe the Lann thing, but that arguement already happened for like 3 pages so yeah).

  Basically, doing missions and farming stuff. Magic Powder/Blessed Magic Powder are good, along with gear for the Swift Set, considering the amount of Vella's. Lann got buffed in the Ignition update. Pummel Storm got a nice damage boost, Slip Dash goes further, and Spear Lann's Roll has invincibility frames now. There probably were be some more buffs, but those are the major ones to Lann.

  oh sorry. I'll make sure to post in the right section next time. @Yanm Currently just working with my leona. My Lann lost the appeal it once had seeing how flashier the Vella's are >.>. Thanks for the input

  This! This is why Lanns need a serious overhaul!

  Making his moves look better would be fine I guess. Overall, I still feel Lann>Vella.

  I'm not even going to write my own wall of text this time, I'll just link to other people's walls of text. http://vindictus.nexon.net/Community/#%2Fshowthread.php%3F693290-Vella-has-ruined-me-I-feel-so-SLOW-with-lann-now%26nxid%3D15 There's a pretty back and forth arguement there, and now nobody can use the "You don't play Lann" arguement as those people have.
  
  For the distilled version, Vella's DPS is one of the lowest without Cross Cut. Once Cestus and Scythe get their buffs, it'll be down there with Staff Evie for really bad sandbag DPS. Now look at S2E1 and S1E10. Lakoria with a competent runner means you'll get attacked like... once every 10-20 seconds maybe? Half of them won't even be aimed at you. Kraken is divided between raw DPS and a tent team, and guess who's the best character for head DPS? Almost all of the dragons (aside from maybe Beokros) are gigantic sandbags, probably the biggest one being Siglint. What that leaves is 1/6 of the recent raids that aren't just massive sandbags regardless of your stats.

  Lann and Fiona should at least have their animations redone.
