  Can't follow this goddamnned plot anymore."

  Does no one read the bloody video descriptions any more?
  
  

  Would you repeat the same choice even if you were to lose everything?
  Is that what’s called destiny?

  Also, call them chapters, not seasons. This will be chapter 2 episode 1, after chapter 1 episode 10... I think? They say this will be The actual start of a chapter, but that doesn't make sense. But if they say so, then... It will be chapter 1, after season 1...?

  The prologue for Paradise of Oblivion is intended to serve as a introduction to episode 1 and will also come with Lann’s adjustments.
  
  We are aware that Lann is a character cherished by many players and have updated both spear and sword Lann in a way to make them more powerful yet still retain their original play style.
  
  New skills and mechanics for decreasing dps loss have been added so that Lann can rain down quick attacks like the dual wielder he is.

  
  
  YES! IT'S ABOUT FUCKING TIME!

  This was teased recently. Is it me or does that look like a heart...?

  Honestly, the sword Lann buffs are pathetic, compared to the spear Lann buffs.
  
  - Spear Dash is (supposedly) getting 0.66 seconds of invulnerable frames, which beats Slip Dash's invulnerability.
  - He can recover HP from the loss by Fury Infusion, because gaining full stamina and 900 ATT wasn't good enough.
  - Spears are getting a dodge attack that cancel the dodge more quickly, and it does a double smash attack that has wide range, good damage, and moves him forward. Not to mention the Blood Pact buff/debuff. Way to drastically change something about Spear Lann with just one addition.
  - ONLY SPEAR LANN gets the invulnerable frames for Lightning Fury.
  - Spears can chain combo after Gliding/Lightning Fury.
  
  Unless "Risky Wind" procs the hits like Guard and Shock Absorb does, EVERY SINGLE sword Lann MUST switch to spears now. With this game's (yet another damn) redirection, I don't see why it shouldn't. Also, what is sword Lann getting? Just more critical statuses and that Risky Wind move? There were good changes that they could have made for sword Lann that "still retain their original playstyle".
  
  - Sword Lann's Sharp/Furious should have worked the same way as spear Lann's Accelerate, instead of forcing him to use the changed Thousand Needles.
  - The move that is currently known as Pummel Storm's second smash, they should take that and replace the current Double Crescent, so that it has more range and mobility, and it would be cancelled more quickly and easily.
  - They can turn LLR into Thousand Needles, having LLRL become the smash stab. It'll then become his tool to gain SP this way.
  - What about Gust Sting? It's still one of the most useless skills ever. Awkward range, low damage without fullcharge, and yet another stationary attack. Can he at least move around while charging it? That, or give it long range when fully charged, like Kakrish's move.
  
  How about some general changes for skills that both swords and spears share?
  
  - Raging Fever is weak. Here's a very simple change that doesn't drastically change Lann. Active: Blazing Fury. Perform "gliding fury" for 250 SP. Able to combo into Gliding Fury if Blazing Fury inflicts a critical hit. 30 second cooldown, 20 seconds at Rank A. Very simple change, but it'll give Lann an assault move, or at least sword Lann one that he can use.
  - Gliding Fury and Lightning Fury STILL needs to be able to move through enemies. Vella's Cross Cut can do so completely, and Hurk's Active: Judgement can to an extent. Why not Lann's signature move?

  He can't regen more than he lost with FI.

  Great Spin Attack comes to mind with that.
  
  It's unfortunate that swords are now more demanding for critical boosts. :/
  
  Also is it me or are the functionalities of both sword and spear are too similar? Both have high invulnerability, crit, damage, and stamina mechanics.

  Good job. You literally just repeated what I already said. Just in different words.

  Which Great Spin? The one where Link does a red overdrive spin, or the frantic rapid spin that moves him around ridiculously?
  
  And yes. Congrats. Now both Lanns have very similar functionalities. The only differences are:
  - Sword Lann has a second dodge that pretty much acts the exact same as its first dodge.
  - Spear Lann has two smash attacks that can be repeated.
  Other than that, now both have a long dodge, can do a dodge attack, and still spam gliding furies like a baws.
