Vindictus - NXA-Orellien
5 years ago, we here at Nexon America brought Vindictus, a rather different look at the world of Mabinogi, to the shores of the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia and New Zealand. Over those five years, countless Fomors have been slain, new and varied mercenaries have joined the field, epic raid bosses, several stories tall, have come around to be utterly demolished, and only Fergus knows how many pieces of armor have been sundered. In celebration of our 5th anniversary, we've got 5 special events to mark the occasion.

Vindictus - NXA-Orellien


Season 3 has been on a roll since the appearance of Muir and the encounter with the Elves of Ben Chenner, and it's time for the next chapter to the story: The Name of Erinn. With this latest chapter comes a new Raid boss, new armor, new items, a renewal of things past and much more. Take a look at what's come in Season 3 - Chapter 3 and all the battles in store.

New Raid Boss: Lord Glas Ghaibhleann



Do you remember, deep below the ruins of Ainle, when a simple investigation unveiled an ancient, shackled monster? Tall as houses, four arms with two massive blades, magic and more? Glas Ghaibhleann was the name of the creature slain that day, but what once was has come again, and he is no longer weakened by eons of captivity.



Lord Glas Ghaibhleann stands in your way again, and the speed of his swords and his diving assaults will devastate any too slow to escape him. His magic is formidable as well, sending out bursts of energy to pummel those unable to get out of the way. But his new tricks are what you will truly need to watch for.



As you wear Lord Glas down, dark voids will appear around the room, pulling any warriors near it to the core... where a very grisly fate awaits. Gravity itself is under Lord Glas' command, as he will cast his Reverse Gravity spell to lift all of his foes into the air and slamming them back to the ground... unless you can find a safe place to stand.



Lord Glas Ghaibhleann can be fought through the "Temple of the Fallen Moon" raid battle, available to characters between 80 and 90. While you can face him alone if you really want, you'd be best suited to bring a full group of eight along with you, to make sure there's someone around to pick you up off the ground. And as with all Raids, you normally only get one shot at him per day, unless you're a VIP (2) or take him on in the next few weeks, thanks to the Lord Glas Ghaibhleann Raid Event.

New Gear: Terminus Sentinel Set



As with Regina and Braha, defeating Lord Glas will unlock the ability to craft a new Armor Set, the Terminus Sentinel Set. The Keystones for this Light Armor Set can be claimed after defeating Lord Glas, letting you construct this gorgeous leather coat over metal breastplate armor, a pinnacle of style and function.

New Enchant Drops for Light and Cloth Armor



The best gear needs some good Enchants to kick it up to the next level, and what would we be if we did not oblige? Four Rank 7 Enchant Scrolls, formerly only available during limited time events, can now be acquired by defeating Season 2 Raid Bosses! While these rare scrolls will give your armor a wealth of bonuses, they can only enchant Light or Cloth armor. Those enchanting their Cloth Armor will even get a bonus of ATT and M.ATT when doing so.

Armor Renewal



As we approach Vindictus' 5<sup>th</sup> anniversary, it's long since time to take a look back at the vast amounts of equipment warriors stumble across as they advance through the story. Most armor was separated by gender, excluding a few of our newer characters, or only for a specific characters as well.

No more. We've gone through just about every piece of armor and reduced the restrictions across the board. Just about anyone will be able to put on the armor they find and take it into battle, although Hurk and Karok's massive frame will still prevent some equipment from being used. Several hundred items have been adjusted, making it far easier for those still leveling up to remain well equipped for the battles to come.

Equipment Mastery Cost Reduced

With all the powerful gear requiring high ranks of skills, AP's never been so valuable. To make it easier for everyone to get their Equipment Mastery skills up, we've dramatically reduced the AP costs for Rank 9 through Rank 5 for all Weapon and Armor skills (Excluding Large Shield Mastery, Vella's Twin Sword Mastery and Focus Mastery).

Story Completion Bonus

Those of you still working on getting through the stories of Season 1 and 2 will find a new reason to get through that last mission. Completing a Chapter from Season 1 or Season 2 will reward you with a bonus AP Capsule to help you keep above the difficulty curve. This AP amount varies based on the Chapter completed, starting at 100 AP for Chapter 1, to 500 AP for most higher level chapters, and up to 1000 AP for completing the final chapter of a Season.

Tutorial Improvement



Have friends interested in Vindictus, or just want to try out a new character? We've improved the Tutorials in the first few missions of Vindictus, to help explain the use of certain items, what aspects of the UI do, introduce the basic combos for your current class and more.

Bloody Wedding Sales



Halloween is almost here, and this month's newest outfits are in the season and wouldn't be out of place in a horror film. There's also new Inner Armors, a new Hairstyle, a new Season 3 Battle Box and even a special new face paint, perfect for the occasion.

Check out all the details in the Bloody Wedding Sales post.

Night of the Damned Events



As the end of October arrives, Halloween approaches. We have a special event tailor-made for the spooky season, where terror and candy reign supreme, and a new event to help you take Lord Glas Ghaibhleann down over and over.

Check out the details in the Night of the Damned Events post.

Vindictus - NXA-Orellien


The secret of Ben Chenner has been unveiled. The corrupted Elves still stand in your way, but if you're to learn more about what has sundered the memories of so many fallen heroes, there's only one place to go: Back to Ben Chenner. Chapter 2 of Season 3 has arrived with new items, new quests and a brand new Raid as you face down the massive creature, Braha. Both of him.

Chapter 2: A Mountain of Ash



The story of Season 3 continues on into Chapter 2, sending you back to Ben Chenner to find out more about the Corrupted Elves and the plague of lost memories. Have care as you enter deeper into the mountain-top forest, because the Corrupted Elves will fight for every scrap of ground, led by Akadus, a fallen hero with a pair of nasty, bayonetted hand-crossbows.



Characters that have completed Chapter 1 can start Chapter 2 with Brynn in Colhen. The Free Battle for the zone is also available, taking your party through the new areas in case you want to revisit the new fights, or want to pound on Akadus for some more loot.

New Raid: Braha



Chapter 2 will lead you to the newest Raid, Braha and Ancient Braha. While this massive bruiser is unable to climb out of his hole for the fight, you'll still have to contend with his massive reach as he swings, slams and grabs at any of those tiny creatures hitting him with their tiny weapons.



There are two Braha's that must be defeated, and you'll need to hit both of them to win. As you fight either one, you'll slowly become attuned to him in the form of a stacking buff. This will gradually reduce the damage that you deal to Braha, down to 50% at full power. But as the attuned Braha shrugs off your blows, the other Braha will find your attacks even more powerful, boosted up to +150% damage at its full effect. Of course, you'll have to find a way to get over to the other one...



Characters that manage to defeat Braha 10 times, each Braha counting as one, will earn the "Braha Exterminator" title, giving you +2 STR, +2 AGI, +3 INT and +2 WIL, as well as unlocking the most powerful part of Braha's rewards...

New Weapons and Armor



Players that defeat Braha have a chance to loot Braha's Essence, a Keystone item that can be taken to Dianann to be turned into new weapons and armor with a few Legendary Shards and a lot of gold. As with the Regina's Feather set before it, each individual component in the composite gear can be replaced, however Regina's Feather Keystones cannot replace a Braha's Essence Keystone, or vice versa.

Braha T-Shirt



With the release of Braha comes the final reward of the Season 3 Preparedness Package, the Braha T-Shirt! Players can redeem their "Season 3 Episode 2 Vouchers" in the Exchange Shop for this fashionable item, featuring the face of Braha on the front and the back. You have until November 16th to claim your shirt, so grab it while you can!

High Fashion Sales



There's more new outfits than just the Braha's Essence set. This month brings us a new pair of classy Outfitters, perfect for  a night on the town! We also have new Hairstyles and Inner Armors, an update to the Season 3 Battle Box and new item that will let you convert Healing Potions into AP!

Check out the High Fashion Sales post for more details.

Petals for the Lost Events



There is no more important time to honor the lost than now, when the very memory of the recently deceased has been sundered. But the heroes of Vindictus can do still their part to honor the fallen, and Ernmass needs your help on the anniversary of his wife's passing.

Find out the full details in the Petals for the Lost Events post.

Other Changes
  • Fixed a bug causing some players to crash after character selection
  • Previous "Season 3 Battle Box" has been renamed to "Regina Battle Box"
  • Direct Launch has been disabled. Vindictus can now only be launched through the Nexon Launcher and Steam. When downloaded, the Nexon Launcher should automatically transfer the installed version, allowing for easier updating and launching of the game.

There are two Braha's that must be defeated, and you'll need to hit both of them to win. As you fight either one, you'll slowly become attuned to him in the form of a stacking buff. This will gradually reduce the damage that you deal to Braha, down to 50% at full power. But as the attuned Braha shrugs off your blows, the other Braha will find your attacks even more powerful, boosted up to +150% damage at its full effect. Of course, you'll have to find a way to get over to the other one...



Characters that manage to defeat Braha 10 times, each Braha counting as one, will earn the "Braha Exterminator" title, giving you +2 STR, +2 AGI, +3 INT and +2 WIL, as well as unlocking the most powerful part of Braha's rewards...

New Weapons and Armor



Players that defeat Braha have a chance to loot Braha's Essence, a Keystone item that can be taken to Dianann to be turned into new weapons and armor with a few Legendary Shards and a lot of gold. As with the Regina's Feather set before it, each individual component in the composite gear can be replaced, however Regina's Feather Keystones cannot replace a Braha's Essence Keystone, or vice versa.

Braha T-Shirt



With the release of Braha comes the final reward of the Season 3 Preparedness Package, the Braha T-Shirt! Players can redeem their "Season 3 Episode 2 Vouchers" in the Exchange Shop for this fashionable item, featuring the face of Braha on the front and the back. You have until November 16th to claim your shirt, so grab it while you can!

High Fashion Sales

Petals for the Lost Events



There is no more important time to honor the lost than now, when the very memory of the recently deceased has been sundered. But the heroes of Vindictus can do still their part to honor the fallen, and Ernmass needs your help on the anniversary of his wife's passing.

The secret of Ben Chenner has been unveiled. The corrupted Elves still stand in your way, but if you're to learn more about what has sundered the memories of so many fallen heroes, there's only one place to go: Back to Ben Chenner. Chapter 2 of Season 3 has arrived with new items, new quests and a brand new Raid as you face down the massive creature, Braha. Both of him.

Chapter 2: A Mountain of Ash

The story of Season 3 continues on into Chapter 2, sending you back to Ben Chenner to find out more about the Corrupted Elves and the plague of lost memories. Have care as you enter deeper into the mountain-top forest, because the Corrupted Elves will fight for every scrap of ground, led by Akadus, a fallen hero with a pair of nasty, bayonetted hand-crossbows.

Vindictus - NXA-Orellien


Welcome to the Evie Revamp update! The third of our warriors has been given an overhaul, including new abilities and massive improvements to some of your favorite spells. Evie isn't the only one with the new toys either, and there's so much here that we can't fit it all into this one post! Check out the Evie Revamp Update post for every gritty detail!

Evie Staff Changes

Evie's Vindictus' purest spellcaster, and her powerset is getting more than a few upgrades. Easier management of the Elemental Masteries, a new, incredibly powerful spell and a very simple change to Evie's most core spellcasting function: Focus.

New Staff Ability: Moving Focus



Evie's primary weakness as a spellcaster has been a simple one: It's hard to cast spells if you're not standing still, and being unable to move as the fifty meter monster brings his fist down is seldom a good survival strategy. But Evie's been training hard, and she's finally worked out the kinks in her technique, and can now Focus while on the move!

New Staff Spell: Rage Conductor



Evie now has a fifth tier of Focus and features a brand new spell, the almighty Rage Conductor. No fire, no ice, no lightning, just pure, raw power, channeled and unleashed at anything in Evie's view. Evie is protected from basic attacks while beginning Rage Conductor, and when completed it strikes as a coherent beam, hitting anything in its way several times per second and lasting up to 5 seconds.

Additional Staff Skill Changes
Check out the full Evie Revamp Update post for the full list of Staff changes!

Evie Battle Scythe Changes

Evie's gotten a lot more than a few nifty new spells, though. Her Battle Scythe skills have been overhauled as well, giving her a few new attacks, better synergy between some of her attacks and a major change to two of her core Scythe abilities, Life Drain and Sacrifice.

Major Scythe Revamp: Life Drain and Sacrifice

Life Drain is the easiest way for a Scythe Evie to regain health, and it's received a major improvement. All Smashes will cause the drain effect, with those performed during a combo granting a stronger Drain, without Evie needing to do a thing besides continuing to strike. If she does use a Grab attack after a Smash attack, then the drain will be even stronger, helping to restore some of the wounds sustained in the melee.

New Scythe Skill: Horrific Scream



Evie's newest Scythe combo is an expansion on the basic Demon Splitter one-two, allowing Evie to keep her Scythe on the move, cutting through the Fomors like a field of wheat. After the Normal Attack and Smash Attack to start the Demon Splitter attack, an added 3rd Smash hit combo can be used, slamming the Scythe down on any enemies still on their feet. If the hit connects, a Life Drain and a Spirit Bind will be applied on the monster and replenish 80 Stamina. This new skill can also be activated after using Blade Shift after 3 smash hits!

New Scythe Skill: Arcane Gate



Evie also brings a powerful new skill to the table, Arcane Gate. When cast, Evie uses her Scythe to open a portal and leap through it, disappearaing from sight and becoming largely invulnerable. While invisibile, she can quickly hop back into reality with a Smash attack and then use the Smash key to become intangible once again.

Additional Scythe Skill Changes

New Ultimate Skills

Just because Evie's gotten a huge number of changes doesn't mean that our other warriors aren't getting new toys to play with. Both Fiona and Karok have received an Ultimate Skill for each of their weapons, powerful abilities that can shut down a boss and deal massive damage, but suffer from a large SP cost and hefty cooldown.

Fiona Longsword Ultimate Skills: Crushing Assault and Blooming Violet



Fiona is a master of Sword, Hammer and Shield, and her new Ultimate Skills give her the power to use her sword and shield to unleash a withering assault, or take one massive swing with her hammer! Check out the Evie Revamp Update post for the full details!

Karok Battle Pillar Ultimate Skills: Extermination and Internal Disruption



Karok's the big brawler of Vindictus, and his new Ultimate Skills carry on that legacy, echewing fancy techniques and complicated maneuvers in favor of just beating the tar out of anything in his way. Check out the Evie Revamp Update post for the full details!

Improved Evie Appearance

We've also given Evie's appearance a bit of a touch-up, giving her a more refined, mature look.

New Features: Incinerate and Daily Missions



With the new fun for Evie comes new features for everyone! Incinerate will let everyone turn their vendor trash into something truly useful, while Daily Missions gives you another good reason to focus on the fundamentals, rewards every day for the basic tasks you take for granted! Check them both out in the full Evie Revamp Update post for the full details!

Evie Enhancement Events



It's Evie's month, and we're making it easy for you to try out all of her new attacks! Those of you that don't want to play with the pint-sized sorceress can enjoy the Daily Mission Launch Event, and hook up with your guild mates for the Strength in Numbers event! Check out all the details in the Evie Enhancement Events post!

Taking Flight Sales



As you'll no doubt notice on logging in, we have a brand new item slot specifically for Wing items that don't override the chest slot appearance. For now, there's only one way to take advantage of this new item slot, so check out the Taking Flight Sales post for the Scarlet Flute sale, as well as plenty of gorgeous cosmetic upgrades for the lady of the month, Evie.
