    Who (NPC) places the life stone to augment the weapon?
    TY

    You don't need a NPC to put Augs on weapon/armor, only right click the Stone and you could use it.

    You need NPC to put RUNES (OTHELL/TYRR/FEOH/ETC) on weapons.

    Hello.

    Since the beginning of the event, in which the drop rate of items should improve, in fact it seems to be the opposite, did anyone else notice this?

    It is always like that, adena drop is real but the item drop is a fake, is even lower than without boost. It's a joke but is real.

    BATTLE ROAR BUGGED

    in Report A Bug

    Posted

    Hi, as tittle says, Battle Roar skill (at least in Titan) is bugged. This is the skill description: Instantly recovers HP/CP by 35 percent, and for 20 minutes, increases max HP/CP for 35 percent.

    Well, it does 2 things good and 2 are bugged, it restore the HP and increase the max HP as skill says, but it doesn't restore the CP and it doesn't increase the max CP either.

    Please take a look on it. Thank you.

    what aboult give back the Talisman Baium too, Toi got reworked so is impossible to get the item now just on events.
    put in the grow mission for lvl 80 or for l2coin 

    You can get it as drop from both Baium or Priest of Baium bosses bro. Or buy it from me :P

    Get it as mission on Lvl 80 can't be possible because is like an epic item, it's exclusive and that's why they gave it in an event months ago.

    Buy it for L2 Coin? Lol that's more than impossible XD. It's like to sell Epics Lv4 for L2 coins, it will breake the game bro, even more than now :P

    @Juji @Hime Are you aware you guys keep altering the drops/adena rates in many locations to the point that it is destroying the L2 economy? I understand you want to motivate people to buy boxes but you cant starve people to the point they cant do anything in the game, you will quickly push out all the casual players because the game is no longer enjoyable for them. I would strongly recommend you enhance adena/drops or release an adena event soon. 

     

    +10000. I had to stop lvl in DV and return to cata without SS because i can't afford the SS there in DV. Mobs adena drop is ridiculous low, the only place in whole server (for not top whales) that drops "decent" adena is Cruma, and yeah, entire Cruma have like 15 rooms for 3000 players (Real players + boxes + bots)

    When are you guys gonna buff the melee class? FFS

    @xtinger, 

     

    I agree with your comment about the re roll, Summoners are the flavor of l2Classic...nothing is better.  I've seen it.  look at the siege field and 90% are Summoners/Nukers  ..with the majority being Summoner mains.  Nothing like being a nuker, with more matk then regular nukers b/c of spirit sharing and how it scales.

     

    Need some class balancing...

    Check what i wrote in ur post days ago. I think it isn't that crazy and could be balanced, no, it HAS TO BE BALANCED.

    Wishful thinking and pointed ISSUES with L2 Classic- Will you fix the game?

    @Juji, @Hime

    Bare with  me as I point out a few issues with L2 Classic.  Classic turned out to be a bit different the most of us remembered.  Skills were different i.e. Raging Force did not reduce HP when used, Frenzy did not scale when HP dropped below 60% or 30%, Soul Crystals vs Classic SA's (here did 30%HP go, Conversion, etc go), Summoners are the nuker  and melee of choice (super OP, not a balanced class), No noble or subclass available so no way to buff NOBLE…every time you die you lose all your buffs (Noble buff was never added to the game, it was part of the Castle items you could get from the Castle….but then you took all castles away except one …Giran).  Raid boss jewelry statistics  were diminished and the actual jewel was not the original l2 stats…the boss jewel were watered down, you needed 4 regular AQ rings to make what was still a slightly less than what I remember jewels being on the Live version (granted I have a Tauti Ring and a Ring of Creation..so couldn't compare).  But you would think that since you need 4 to make a full ring, or 8 in the case of a lvl 4 AQ ring, that you would make the drop rate 100%.  That would make killing the boss and equipping members something doable for an alliance of lets say 100 peeps more manageable and people wouldn't grow old waiting to get their epic jewelry.  Instead the drop rate was maybe 20% for all boss jewels.  One of the first implementation of NCSOFT tweaking drop rates to create an artificial scarcity, that would later be used to promote P2W sales that had Epic jewelry as possible rewards.  The addition of cloths to unseal A  and S grade for no apparent reason then to create more of a grind and "encourage" the player base to buy into some events that had cloths etc.  Your Ancient Kingdom cloaks, their effects were watered down from live version… my +7 Elmore Cloak on live has 50% PVE damage for 2mins as opposed to 30% pve dmg for the same cloak…

    I will try to capture most, not all of what should be and can be fixed within the L2 Classic game. 

    1. Constant changing of the game.  One of the problems have been your constant changing of the GAME to include the Rewards received at certain levels.  For instance, you used to receive Elemental Stones from a quest line that introduced you to every elemental zone and awarded Elemental Stones (Fire, Earth, Wind, Water); Used to receive all the chapter books 1-4 for achieving lvl 80-84 for the lvl 80 CODEXs; Castle Sieges…. There were a few of them, Oren, Dion, Giran, Aden… Changed and reduced to ONLY one castle.  With the addition of the Kamael Patch you really did some negative changes to the game;
      1. You destroyed the cancel ability, Steal Divinity, , this allowed for countless hours of griefing epic bosses and regular bosses by Buffing the boss.  We no longer had the ability to remove buffs.
      2. Epic raid bosses were made so that block wind walk, block shield, and some other debuffs would no longer land on them.. And to make things worse you Beefed up Baium's Aoe and Antharas pdef…
      3. Epic Baium and Antharas became undoable.  6 months Later we discovered we could do Baium by putting all support for the titan/gk/tank/Super summoners where Cherub Galaxia spawns and send only those classes up to hit Baium (while using debuffers to run in and run out (Stigma, Necro)
      4. Zaken was taken out of of his raid instance and spawns outside his boat.  No issues but you allowed him to be resettable… who ever had aggro could pull him through the tunnels till he respawned at his spawn point with full health.  This led to months of griefing on our server.  People quit the game b/c of this issue…. He is the only resetable epic raid boss in the game (I have video of Baium being taken out of his floor but YOU supposedly fixed that../shrug)
      5. Removed the Cancel Target effect from the following skills-Stunshot, Bluff, Trick, Auraflash, ShieldBash, Shadow Step and a few others…  Why would you remove these skills?
      6. Fishing- Changed from giving buffs and exp scrolls to I don't know what? Does anyone really fish on Classic.  I can fish on live, but then again I use Fancy Fishing Rods.
      7. Removed the ability to see buffs and debuffs on raid bosses and Player characters- This is a detrimental change to the game.  It has been brought up numerous times and has not been fixed
      8. Removed the names of Summoner pets.  You have no idea the name of the PC who owns the pet.  Kamikaze Incognito pets of death!
    2. The Auto hunting feature and repeating macro.  The auto hunting and repeating macro system was introduced to L2 Classic after it started.   The first system was like the one on live, but then you changed our auto hunting feature with the winter of war update.  @Juji The auto hunting feature-  What is the intent of this feature, was it meant to be used in a party situation- how do I heal?, or cure paralysis with auto reuse?  There are very few spots that this is useable in Classic due to the small concentration of mob spawns, unlike on live where the density and grouping of mobs everywhere  (like outside Aden castle, or blazing swamp) allow this autohunt feature to work well.  The autohunting in my opinion is not really optimized for party hunting, and definitely not for DV, AL, TOI.  Improve the AutoHunt feature-  Add a targeting option for Chaotic Characters that targets them and THEIR red pets!!!  Provide a tutorial for your autohunt feature.  That would be a first, but yes please provide how to use it effectively. 
    3. Adena and Item Drop Rate.
      1. One of the first  and constant complaints from your player base has been about the adena and item drop rates.  They have never been high enough to support a parties SPS/SoulShot farming. 
      2. It has always proven more beneficial to hunt in lower lvl areas to farm more adena, as the higher lvl areas (Dragon Valley, Lair of Antharas, Imperial Tomb, and Now Tower of Insolence) do not provide an adequate adena and item drop rate for the difficulty and lvl of the mobs you fight.  The risk vs reward is not there.
    1. EPIC Raid bosses.
      1. Their loot table was changed when you leveled them up to level 85.  Their drop table removed cloths from Zaken and shrunk the loot table to about 4-5 items.
      2. You spend more in shots/sps to kill it then what drops.  And you are supposed to share this with your clan/alliance.  1/4 loot share of nothing is nothing.
      3. Frintessa is your only Instanced raid boss, but can take 1 hr to 2 hrs to do.  In the old days (orginal Lineage 2) in the 2nd room, the instance dropped arrows.  These arrows were used to stop frintessa from doing certain songs/skills would help you do the event.  I haven't seen them, not sure if its working as intended
      4. Antharas still undoable.
      5. Baium- Doable but only b/c of the setting up the healers and buffers below him (at Cherub Galaxia spawn point), don't forget to pull the angels down.  I'm sure some of our players who are stacked and have reached lvl 87 or even 89 can do it in a more normal way, but his aoe dmg is still too wide and maintaining aggro by a tank has always been an issue.
      6. RECOMMENDATION-
        1.  Since Frintessa is instanced, might as well make ALL the epic raid bosses Instanced.  Why have one epic raid boss instanced and the other 3 aren't?  Even though Antharas is still unkillable.
        2. Fix the debuffs so they land on EPICS and all high level raid bosses.
        3. Reduce  Baium's Aoe range by about 300 range, its too wide since the kamael udpate.
        4. Adjust the loot table and the % drop for the epics.  People want epics now, not in 2 years. 
        5. Crafting packs-  Fix them to include all materials and items needed to click the craft.  Who ever heard of a crafting pack with just the key parts (13 blades) and the recipe.  What about the S crystals, gems, and materials???
    1. Class Balance.
      1. There is no balance between the classes.  Almost everyone has re-rolled to a nuker or summoner.   Nukers win over almost everyone except Summoners (which are NUKERs and Melee).  Melee classes do not stand a chance in the current version of l2 classic.  As a Titan, I can get two shot by a nuker.  I'm lvl 84 and with decent gear.  The removal of the cancel target skill from many melee type classes have not helped this at all.
      2. Currently there is nothing more OP then a Summoner.  Leading with the Elemental Summoner.  It’s the nuker of choice, the AOE'er of choice with the pet.  I believe Pandalicious pointed out a bug for the summoner pet, where if the summoner has Navy Admiral Transform up (or any mythic/legendary transform that procs), it just resummons the pet and the pet reactivates the special proc of the Mythic/Legendary Transform. 
      3. Recommendation-
        1. Fix make Zealot a skill we can use at 90% for both the GK and the Titan.  Fix Frenzy to scale as HP drops. 
        2. Fix cancel target to all the skills and classes you removed it during the Kamael update- Stun Shot, Bluff, Trick, Stun Blast, Switch, Aura Flash, Earthquake, Shield Charge, Shield Bash, Shadow Step. 
        3. Summoners- add a reuse to their summons.  Summoners should not be allowed to resummon a summon indefinitely when its stunned, slept, rooted.  Unlike on live, Here on classic Summoners nukes keep leveling.  Their nukes are not as powerful as a normal nuker but with spirit sharing, their matk and cast speed exceeds all normal nukers.  Take a look at that and see if that’s what the intent is.
        4. Add a summon Cursed Bones to Necros so that they can summon it and not spend so much adena per shot when using Death Spike, or add it to the grocery store at 15-20 adena. Each.
        5. Tanks- improve their aggression.  They can't keep aggro on raid bosses over damage dealers.  Tank skill Shield Deflect Magic skill should last at least 15 secs.
    2. Grocery Store Items and Pona items- Recommendations.
      1. Add A gems and S gems to the grocery store, possibly add Cloths too now that they don’t' drop from Zaken and you further nerfed drops in DV, and the new Item Creation allows you to get unsealed items both A and S grade.  Putting cloths in the store would allow people to unseal A and S grade items instead of crushing or throwing them in to the crafting points and gambling it away.
      2. Add Transformation extraction scrolls to Pona
      3. Add an option to turn in lower transform scrolls for the higher grade ones.  Currently only way to get legendary/epic rares is through events.  We want to enjoy the game and play it to the fullest.  At certain levels maybe after lvl 80 or lvl 85 your dailies gives you partial book transformation sealbook fragments for the HIGH Grade random Seal Books.
    3. Daily Instances- Recommendations - ADD MORE
      1. Make Clan Arena a daily instance- Tweak as needed.  This will help with leveling clan levels.
      2. Make Goldberg a daily instance-  Add passes to do Goldberg like on Live for Kamalokas.  Change the Tomb of Ancient Pirates- timed hunting area with great exp, drops, and adena.
      3. Make Elemental Bosses doable more than once a week.  Tweak as you see fit.  But would give clans more to do.
      4. Epic Elemental Bosses tweak their HP down a bit, or allow 1hr time limit like regular Elemental bosses have.  Currently only way to get Chapter 4 books is by defeating epic elemental bosses.  Ignis being the one most people would try.
      5. Tweak the Four Sepulchers difficulty level as well.   Will allow more people to explore and have something else to do.  But if EPIC elementals are not unbeatable by 96% of the server population, most won't bother with the Four Sepulchers.
    4. Hunting Zones Recommendations
      1. Elemental Zones and all hunting zones, improve mob density so that auto hunting stays within a certain area.  Where did the Evolutionary Stones go?  Add adena drops to Elemental Zones.
      2. Adjust adena and drop rates in all higher hunting areas adequate to their difficulty.  Currently They are all sub par (Dragon Valley, Lair of Antharas, Imperial Tomb, Tower of Insolence).  You currently reduced the drop rate of items in Antharas Lair and Dragon Valley with the latest patch.
    5. Revenge System-
      1. If I kill a red toon, he should not get a revenge on me.  He was Chaotic.
      2. Reduce the amount of time you can be revenged.  Cut it by 12hrs.
    6. Clan War System-
      1. Was broken before, didn't really do anything.  If you were at war you still flagged when fighting it allowed for other people not flagged to get involved in the fight. 
      2. Your changes are fine.  The change made it so there is no clan war, just identify friend or foe…and everyone flags.
    7. Siege-
      1. Bring back the sieging of multiple castles- Original Lineage 2 had multiple castles to siege.  L2 Classic did as well untill it was changed. 
      2. Make sure people can only step on the siege field if they are signed.
      3. Add Noble buffs NPC to sieges, or add it to the game for people to use.
    8. Constant changing of your Restoration Policy
      1. I believe you have changed your item restoration policy at least 3 times since L2 Classic began.  First year, I didn't even know one existed…
      2. Your latest change of your restoration policy came in between two P2W events.  Where many people counted on the token restoration policy to attempt to level, lets say  for arguments sake +8 dragon belts.  They blew them up unaware of your latest change to the restoration policy, going on good faith with your policy.  You've left many people upset and dissatisfied with your current changes.  I'd recommend you honor the token restorations, as you made the changes mid P2W and did not warn your player base.
    9. P2W- Items/Sales of items
      1. Recommend you put items that people can buy if they want.  Leave the Random Number Generator Loot boxes etc etc for the free to play… but allow for players to purchase "Guaranteed" items or scrolls to lvl them that DO NOT fail.  For example.  You could have sold the Talisman of Authority and the scrolls to guarantee it to a Noble Talisman of Authority.  Then you could offer another pack of scrolls to take that Noble talisman to a radiant talisman for 2000 NCOIN (just an example).
      2. Same example applies to everything, your Aden/Ferios/Elmore/Elmoreden etc.
      3. I believe people will play your Heroic Circlet event, but you made it untradable and bound to your toon, I already played it a little bit and was dissapointed at the enchant rate, couldn't get it pass +3.  Make most items tradable and if not tradeable shareable within the account.  (will allow people to re-roll or try other toons when bored and still have the items they invested in).  No one likes spending hundreds of dollars and have nothing to show for it.
    10. Over priced VIP Levels and Maintaining
      1. Currently it takes $1,012.50 United States Dollars to get to VIP 10.  Then it takes $375.00 without tax to maintain the 30k points we lose every 30 days.  The cost of getting to VIP 10 is a mortgage payment to some people, that’s the cost of 2.5 xboxes, or 2.5 nintendo switches.  The cost of maintaining the VIP 10 is a car payment.  I truly don't see normal people spending this kinda of money and justifying the expense.
      2. Recommend cutting the cost of VIP 10 by 400%.- that would be around 250-280.00 to get to VIP 10, and 100 to maintain (with taxes).
        1. Other options Cut it by 50% to get there, then add a monthly $15.00 subscription to maintain VIP 10 or don't charge points once you achieve vip levels.
        2. Recommend that the rewards for VIP 10 get switched out once of a month (from aden talisman to eva talisman, etc), like some people have mentioned (Pandalicious)
    11. L2 Classic is Marketed to all of North America, Central and South?
      1. Recommend if possible (I know mobile games have it), add an ingame translation ability to text chat in support for Spanish, Portuguese, and English.    This would help with communications between your player base.
    12. No Ninja nerfs and patches, be fair to your player base!
      1. Announce all changes to the game.  There should be no unannounced changes to the game.  We are all adults, publish your changes.  You've ninja changed bugs, drop rates, without adding them to your patch notes.  But then there are times where you know something is wrong and you don't fix it : i.e.
      2. When you merged servers with Talking Island, everyone who came from the other server had their nom nom and yum yum candies, While the entirety of Talking Island players did not have this advantage.
      3. You removed Caravan Transformation from most players, but you left it on some others.  So for 4 months some people had lost that transformation till you fixed it with the patch 2 weeks ago, but some other folks still had the Caravan transformation in their skills bar.

     

    @Juji  These are my thoughts, my opinions and suggestions after being a LINEAGE 2 PLAYER SINCE OPEN BETA, I have a few more but I already went on too long.  You've been at the helm of this game for a while, your knowledgeable, you've communicated openly with the community through the forum and through things like JUJI's lab, but what we need is more fixes to the current content, and soon, not fix it when most of the people have quit.  We need more GM interactions to support the player base.  Understand that this is a game, and it’s a business for you, but we can't throw our money away with your events and get nothing from them, we can't keep playing a game where the EULA is not enforced ( no harassment, sexual or otherwise, cyberbullying, pking for exp/hunting spots, items and extorting adena) to include enforcing it for the use of 3rd party software… OR change the EULA and allow 3rd party as your autohunting doesn't cut it, I hate to say it but botting seems to be ingrained in the Lineage 2 DNA.  It is a slap in the face when you @Juji log in to the server and the number one botter (s) shout for you to ban the bots.  It is ridiculous.    I don't know if you can or will change anything that I've mentioned, but I needed to get it out there.  Too many players don't bother posting on the forums b/c nothing ever happens, people stop reporting b/c nothing ever changes.

    I'd like to remind you of your  Producers Letter - January 2019-  You were engaged and excited about L2 Classic and Changes to Live server.  But most of all was your last 2 paragraphs where you stated,

     "One of the most pressing concerns from the community is the topic of botting after the launch of Lineage II Classic last year.  Since the launch, our security team so far has banned thousands of accounts… I would ask that players continue to be rigorous when submitting bot report tickets to our support team, so we can remove cheaters that have made attempts to bypass our detection methods.  Lastly, we Truly appreciate all the feedback we received from players after the launch of Lineage II Classic.  Your feedback was vital in helping our development team improve the game for the community and we hope that you will continue to send us feed back for the betterment of Lineage II.

    Sincerely,

    Jason "Juji" Lieberman- Lineage II Producer"

     

    These were your words that brought hope that you would have a bot free game, fast forward 21 months later…NCSOFT removed the XIGNCOD3, the bot report button in the action bar, and any successful "macro" group in high level areas is using 3rd party software as your auto hunting does not cut it with the difficulty level of the NPC/MOBs in these areas.   3rd party botting reports get the usual canned Customer Service response and nothing changes.  They continue investigating and never let you know if they closed the investigation or at least let you know whether it was found or unfounded. 

    Not sure how long I'll continue to play this version of Lineage 2, but if nothing changes then part of being an adult is knowing when enough is enough and that its time to move on to other things.

    Sincerely,

    HammerForge 102 Tyrr Titan- Chronos

    HammerForge 84 Titan- Talking Island

    I made a post about USELESS TITAN SKILLS WHEN AUTO-HUNTING, and people said that i was a noob because they don't read before write.

    1- Zealot is USELESS when u do auto-hunting, you will never get to 30 percent to use it, so they should put it at 90 like Frenzy with less power, Like 33 percent crit dmg instead 100 and that stuff, scaling when u lose more hp (60-30percent). 

    2- Frenzy should be boosted because its dmg now is ridiculous low, years ago it give you 150 percent p.atk and now 15 percent? REALLY? im pretty sure all Titans want the P.atk Frenzy back instead that sh..t that we have now! You super buffed Ogre Totem from Tyrants and nerfed Frenzy like this? 

    3- Rage buff need a boost also, put the P.Def decrease like years ago if you want, but add Crit Dmg on it, Ogre Totem is like GOD (PATK/PDEF/MDEF/CRIT DMG ALL 20PERCENT) COME ON! You see GKS doing more dps than Titans and much more tanky, WTF?!?!

    4- Armor Crush is USELESS AS F..K! its the ONLY P.DEF DEBUFF that Titans have for farming (you have Demolition Impact, that have 75 secs CD) and they rarely procs (if u're not fully epic geard like whales), and when it procs it last for 1 second or 2, COME ON!, ALL CLASSES that have debuffs (Hex, Raging Force, Deadly Strike, Critical Wound, Curse Gloom, Curse of Abyss, Stigma, etc) when it lands it last for 30 seconds! THIRTY! and some for 1-2 MIN (like Block Shield)!, Armor Crush only 7 SECONDS (that is a LIE, because when stun's gone the debuff is gone also). And that applies to Dwarves too! They need a hand in there!

    5- Guts, you should put MDEF on it also, and bow resistance, similar to live version, nukers hit ridiculous hard here since you BUFFED the nukes (less mp needed and MUCH MORE damage), also with Archers, people say that Archers are garbage but they hit SUPER HARD with skills.

    6- Auto-use skills: If you put in auto-use Frenzy/Zealot/Guts/Over The Body to be used when you have the requirements while you are AUTO-HUNTING, you will have a basic attack delay as huge as an entire country! because after EACH F*KIN ATTACK it will try to use EACH SKILL, making it IMPOSSIBLE to handle in AUTO-HUNTING. That need to be fixed ASAP!

    PD: And is not make the game "suit" to me like the haters say, is fix some unbalanced things and boost some skills that need a buff asap, Titan isn't the same without the old Frenzy, and the basic attack delay while auto-hunting when have that skills in auto-use should be fixed as soon as possible, because if you use 3rd party program like whales do in DV/LOA/TOI/GC/FI, etc, you won't have that problem, but in people like me that use auto-hunting, it is a pain!.

    Wishful thinking and pointed ISSUES with L2 Classic- Will you fix the game?

    Most of what hammer said is true aside from the instanced epics. Epics should be fought over by the top clans.( Problem is there is one giant zerg of active high level superbly geared alliance that no1 can contest. The #2 alliance simply doesnt have anywhere close to the activity required.)

    Most of what Beppler said is also true and can be agreed upon by most.

    Some of you in here do not like Hammer and it shows in your posts. This thread is about fixing the game and making it better for all so that more people play it. In that case hammer is absolutely correct in 99% of his post.

    Most of the population arent pvprs. They are farmers. The problem is NCSOFT has made farming impossible. there are no drops. so they introduce gambling boxes and other p2w events to introduce items in the game that allow you to farm higher places with lesser "normal" gear. There is absolutely no reason a Level 85 toon should be wearing a grade items unless those items are extremely enchanted. NCsoft makes S grade available but no cloth to unseal it? Instead of fixing the issue you make a fake gambling craft deal so we will spend lcoins, instead of fixing the drop rates. So now people who have their sealed s grade find it useless and have to repurchase unselaed s grade from this fake crafting bullsh..

    Fix the drop issue. It has been a problem since day 1. You introduce all these adena sinks everywhere but do not fix the adena drop rate. We cannot even support ourselves using spiritshots based on the farming we are supposed to be doing? We should not have to pay $350 a month to play a game.

    Dwarves....Where is the spoils? How are we supposed to get recipes when the spoil rate is 0? Fix this!

    Summoner Classes. Completely overpowered with transfer pain and instant resummon. Something needs to be done here. I dont think you nerf the summoners damage but you need to reduce transfer pain or the ability to instantly resummon. Hell if the delay in resummoning was 30 seconds that would be great. It wouldnt hurt too bad in pve and in pvp it would sort of make a difference.

     

    I have to add something about Summoners: 1- Re-summon should be like it was years ago (i think 1min CD and OUT OF COMBAT), because it makes Summoners ULTRA OVERPOWERED in every aspect, because it's Transfer Pain is 50 percent! So if u stun, silence, anchor, fear, every f*kin debuff or kill the Summon, they will just re-summon it WITH FULL HP AND 0 DEBUFFS AND YEAH, FULL BUFFED (because they auto get all ur buffs when summoned) because YOU CAN DO IT, It wasn't like that years ago, and that's not and improvement, is an unbalanced sh..t. 2- Make Summon names to be READ by all because u have to click a Summon to know if he's PK, ADDING to that if you click a PK Summon that is 10-15lvl above you, you can't notice if is a PK or not because you will see its name RED because of lvl difference! 3- Make Summons that when get a mount, Summon DISAPPEAR till you get off your mount, that will HELP A LOT about the annyoing PK PONIES that are in the f*kin mount with Summons out and if you are MELEE u can't catch them because they use the MOUNT DASH and their Speed is much more than yours, that's a disgusting disavantage! 4- You REALLY NEED to nerf Summoner Nukes, or at least put them a decent Re-use, like 15 seconds, IT IS A SUMMONER NOT A NUKER!, the Elemental Summoners are that broken that is disgusting, they have more damage than SpellHowllers and they double their casting speed, because of broken Spirit Sharing and 2 Pony buffs that are super broken, COME ON!.

    Mate! You can email them first before you make a mess. And they will notify you if its eligible for restoration. 
     

    goodluck!

    I am considering a few upgrades. Before I do i need some info. I want to buy a beefed up S Grade Rapier, but there is no way to know if it has been restored prior to buying. So the question at hand is this. If i buy said S Grade rapier and it HAS been restored , I enchant it and it blows up.....will I be able to restore the weapon. God knows everyone will say their item has not be restored.

    The restoration policy needs clarification. Is it 1 restore per item per account? Is it Item can be restored once. Can i buy that weapon and enchant it ,fail and give to another account? If the answer is no , we need to have a symbol or something on items that have been restored once.

    You can make a ticket to check if Rapier was restored or it is eligible for restoration, the problem is that you need to have it in inventory, that means that you need to buy it first.

    NCSOFT need to put a mark, a description, SOMETHING, that makes you notice that the item was restored. For example: I bought a weapon +6, made a ticket and gm tell me that it was restored. Sold the weapon, buy another +7, made a ticket and what do you think? IT WAS RESTORED TOO!. So you can't know if the people who is selling the item to you is giving you a restorable item or not untill you have it in your hands and send a ticket to NCSOFT...

    Game servers will be down for maintenance beginning Wednesday, August 26, 2020 at 5 a.m. PDT /  7 a.m. CDT / 8 a.m. EDT / 2 p.m. GMT+2 and will be unavailable for approximately 3 hours.

    With this maintenance:

    • Standard database maintenance and application restarts will be performed.
    • The Letter Collector event will continue for one week.
    • The Dragon’s Belt promotion in the L2 Store will continue for one week.
    • Fixed an issue where players could not exchange their Proof of Blood at the Senior Appraiser Leo NPC in Monster Race Track.
    • Fixed an issue where certain players were affected by a transformation issue back in May that prevented them from seeing their transformations. The affected players will receive transformation items as a replacement.

    Other Notes:

    • Thank you for your feedback on the Tales Untold update. We have shared and are discussing the feedback with the dev team. We will provide updates to changes as soon as we have more information. If you have any additional feedback to the update, please post it in the feedback thread here.

     

    If you have any questions about the changes taking place during this maintenance, please feel free to post them on the forums. We also encourage you to follow @LineageIIOps for maintenance and server status updates.

     

    What about Elemental bosses counter that was reseted to 0?? We lost weeks/months of work! And take a look on auto Dances/Songs system! The idea is good but the method is bad, u can't afford 4 dances/songs actives because everytime it will ends the Dancer/Singer re-use it and consumes 400mp each! Even if you try to use it crossed to safe MP, by the time it will lose the sequence and you will have the problem again. Please take a look on that!

    I read the comments and idk if quit or just cry lol. Iam in the Lv80 stuck and being F2P is just impossible to progress, just IMPOSSIBLE. More and more P2W events with ridiculous overpowered items that looks like Live Server items!. Bots everywhere! and if you have a decent gear to afford DV or LoA you need a 9+ party bot extremely accurate with debuffs+stuns/root/anchor. Is just ridiculous to see how perfect they play (the bots, OF COURSE), because NOBODY in Lv80+ AREAS PLAY WITHOUT A BOT.

    So basically you have to farm for months or a year in a cata (that is the only zone in game where mobs doesn't 2shot you and give tiny XP/Adena/Drop) to buy some gear and reach lvl 81-82 with luck if you don't get pked a lot by the ULTRA OVERPOWERED PONIES that are WITHOUT BUFFS AND MOON GEAR AND WITHOUT WEAPON and hit you by like 3-4K PER PET NUKE while you are in FULL A GRADE JEWELRY! THAT'S JUST STUPID!

    New clan system is OK, but they forgot to put DAILY QUESTS like live server that just need to kill some mobs to complete! If not is just imposible to LV up a clan now! That have not sense! And i have to add to that ELEMENTAL RAID QUESTS WAS RESETED! So ppl like me that had 4/10 lost 1 MONTH of work! and there's people that lost 8-9/10 that is 2 MONTHS! Are u kidding me??!?!?!

    They just need to nerf Summoners Nuke, is just ridiculous, they hit as hard as a mage and are SUPER TANKY. Now the only difference between them is that mage can AoE and Summoner can't (in lvl 82+ Areas), because dmg is ridiculous similar, REALLY??

    PD: I have much more things to say but it will take me a year writting without stop to say all things that must be fixed (bugs/bots/SHITTY AUTO-HUNTING SYSTEM) and much more!

    Why Profecy of fire is not nerf as COV?

    developers:

    After 15 years, I decided to return to the game due to the pandemic, to find changes that are clearly not equitable in any way.

    I decided as an adult to have a main character a prophet, only to find that the doomcryer became the standard buff just to be used for it.

    When I saw this I realized that the main buff that returned to a main character professes no longer makes any sense, since it does not make a difference in the character, much less is it balanced.

    COV
    For 10 min., Party member's HP / MP Recovery Rate + 20%, P. / M. Accuracy +4, P. / M. Evasion +4, P. / M. Atk. + 15%, Atk. Spd./ Casting Spd. + 10%, P. / M. Critical Rate + 15%, P. / M. Critical Damage + 15%. Consume 30 Spirit Ores.

    POF
    For 10 min., Party member's Max HP + 10%, HP Recovery Bonus + 10%, P. Atk. + 10%, P. Def. + 10%, Atk. Spd. + 5%, Debuff Resistance + 10%. You consume 10 Spirit Ore.

    We can literally see that it is a shame that one of the main human characters is diminished by melodies and nerf skills (cov) that make a prophet unable to compete against a doomcryer.

    A shame and I hope that developers and commercials of the game can reverse this situation.

    Hi bro, yes POF now is pretty nerf but u have to look at Lv80 skill called Critical Counter, it is EXTREMELY OP for warriors, and Doomcryer doesn't have it, so both WC+PP are super needed in a warrior party, even more for new content like TOI that is for warriors.

    Update looks good! 

    A couple recommendations that I think a vast majority of the community would like see 

    1. Allow the ability to show debuffs on Mobs/Raid Bosses again. This gives everyone a better opportunity of understanding what does and doesn't land and when to cast again. 

    2. Possibly consider increasing adena rate in higher end areas. This will allow the economy to improve as well.

    3. Open up another castle to be seiged. With there only being one, it leaves those that may be less geared to not attempt at all and ruins live pvp action,which this game IS based on. 

    4. If not seige, maybe consider Fortress Battles. Those were always fun. 

    5. Take another look at Epic drops. Since the previous changes, we've noticed that it is actually more beneficial to do lvl 75-80 Raids and get more. I don't ever remember that being the case before. That's great that they're lvl 85 and harder to kill, but the efforts put in don't translate to what they are currently dropping. 

     

    All in all, update looks good and I'm curious to see how the new Clan system will work. 

     

    Thanks @Juji

    Clan systems is pretty same as live servers, instead farm a ton of POB, u just need to do daily/weekly quests to give Clan XP to the clan. Let's see if they put the contribution system like live server where u can buy basic stuffs using them so all ppl do the quests everyday because of that. The bad part is that now Clans will be able to reach Lv 10 but pop still capped in 40. We need the old system with Main Clan-Elites-Academy and stuff. It would be great!

    Titan skills USELESS

    Hello, dude. 
    I think you have no idea how to play with a destroyer. 
    titan is the beast of the game, they can’t set up titan as u wanted, it is insane. 
    My titan broad sweep works pretty good, obviously is not a Warlord... 

    Zealot, u have to practice how to use it, it makes the titan the real beast. 
    Anyway if u need some lessons just take a look into the ranking and ask the top titans how to play with them. 
    cheers. 

    Lol i know how to play it, im just saying as auto-hunting because i don't bot like many of urs :)

    Btw broad sweep is a pretty new skill to me, but imo its range is very short since mobs moves from front of u to ur sides. And btw im more a poleman titan, but seems here is not worth as time ago.

    And u didn't say nothing about the basic attack delay in auto-hunting while u have frenzy/zealot/guts in auto-use, when u are idk in a cata and go to sleep, delay is insane! that needs to be fixed!

    My comments:

    1. Make playable locations +80. Can't you see that no one playing in locations like Giants cave, ketra, varka, dragons valley ect.?? For who u doing this game? For few whales with fat wallets or for houndreds with smaller wallets who are also able to pay but with more reasonable amounts? Dont forget that no game exist without players.
    2. Showing debufs on mobs. Fix it in the end!
    3. Nerf: elemental summoners, phantom summoners, tanks, nuke of healers (OMG they shouldnt be 1:1 pvp characters!), titans. Strenghten: archers, daggers, necromancers.
    4. Rebuild economy! Cant be that one and only part of economy is buing NC coins for real money! Make game available for players who are not able to P2W. We need new players. Instead this server will die as EU classic did.
    5. Open 2nd castle for siege.
    6. Open new locations and ofcourse make them PLAYABLE for 90% of players not only for 1%.

    We are patient people but we are not stupid. Dont play with us please.

     

    Nerf Titans? Titans are ultra nerfed bro, TYRANTS are who are ultra buffed here!

    Titan skills USELESS

    in General Classic Discussion

    Posted

    Hi, there are some things that need a fix, like Broad Sweep range (is ridiculous short), Excruciating Strike range its even shorter, basically ALL AoE skills from Titan are USELESS because its SUPER HARD to hit more than 1 enemy even with all of them pulled in the same pixel. 

    Another HUGE thing that u still don't fix is the annyoing delay with basic attacks while u are auto-hunting and have Frenzy in auto-use, and is EVEN MUCH WORSE if u put Zealot and Guts (all 3 in auto, it basically attacks 1 hit per like 3 seconds or 4). It keeps trying to use the skill (frenzy/zealot/guts) while its in CD, AFTER EACH ATTACK.

    Another Skill that is practically USELESS in auto-hunting is Zealot, why is it? if u are not a super bot party like there in LoA, Dragon Valley or Giant Cave that could make healers heal them as required, u will never be able to use it because u set the delay from healers to heal u as much as fast as they can without lose MP. So u will NEVER will be below 30% HP to use ZEALOT, that makes it USELESS and Titan lose A LOT potential because of it since Frenzy is ULTRA nerfed. So my point is easy: make Zealot on Titans to use as same hp as Frenzy (90% or 70%). Why only in Titans? Easy, Tyrants have an OP totem who makes them super tanky with a lot patk/crit dmg, and the Zealot only procs very well with Bison Totem that needs 30% HP, so u could use both at 30% HP, thing that u cant do on Titan because Frenzy is available in 90% HP and Zealot in 30%. That's Ridiculous.

    Where are the Spear skills of Titan? Why are they that nerfed? Please answer me that questions please! Ty.:(

    And, setting my usual sarcasm and extra (sometimes - passive-aggressive) politeness aside, I will be dead serious here.

    I'm paying customer (and highly paying customer), so I want answers to the below and publicly, please do not tell me "cut a ticket". This problem is of public interest.

    @Juji, @Hime, could you please answer one simple question: was that move (limit of 10 windows per computer) made to achieve one or both of the below goals (because there are no other possible (not even saying positive) impacts):

    • Encourage last remaining legit players to start using illegal software to workaround that limit?
    • Encourage people leave, as it is impossible with current drops to pay for shots (not even saying about buying equipment) for one's main party if you don't have farm party which farms adena not using shots?

    I suspect that clear and honest answer to this question will help to dot l's and cross T's.

    I specifically have bought my new PC and recently upgraded RAM to be able to run more clients (and I'm not using bot, it is just 1 main and 1 farm parties + couple of shops). Do you suggest that I should buy another? Why would you think it is a good thing to do? Which problem are you trying to solve? Why running 20 client on 2 PCs is any better than running 20 on the same PC?

    Fun part of this is that bots don't need to buy another PC, they will just buy illegal software to workaround this, while legit players will suffer. And even if such software didn't exist, there are 1000s of dirt-cheap used PCs on eBay and with the profits bots make by doing RMT they can easily afford buying any number of these rigs to overcome the limit.

    Also, seeing all inaction of NC related to bots, while the anti-bot/bot detection (but, technically speaking - just intrusive spyware/rootkit) collects and reports information on those who do use bot to NC - a lot of questions and concerns arise.

    Having thought logically I have only three possibilities here:

    • NC is trying to boost sales of used PCs on eBay
    • NC is trying to boost sales of certain illegal (according to NC's EULA) software
    • NC made a mistake by limiting the number of clients, as didn't fully analyze the impact of such move

    I leave it to the public to make a conclusion which one of this is more likely, but I would like to hear from either @Hime and/or @Juji which one of these is the real one.

    Having said all of the above, as a paying customer, who does not get quality of service he is paying for, I do DEMAND removal of the 10 window limit, as it does not help to solve ANY of the problems Lineage 2 Classic has and is absolutely pointless (unless your goal was to achieve one of the above). Please fix this terrible unfortunate mistake. I would really appreciate this.

    P.S. Worst case scenario, if, for whatever reasons (i.e. Korean HQ demanding to introduce this limit) you need to have certain limit - set it to something reasonable - 9+9 (parties) + 5 (shops/craft shops/market checker) = 23, so let's round it up to 24 or 25. It is, probably, maximum number of clients could be run on current conventional not-so-overpowered hardware (ofc if one does not have 3990x with 64C/128T and 2Tb RAM).

    Yours truly,

    NeverDwarf

    25 chars per pc? are u crazy? this is a mmo, not a job, the easiest way to fix this is INCREASE ADENA RATE and lower even more the accs per pc to 3-5, and PUT THE REPORT BUTTON AGAIN (and ofc check the reports to ban bots). Problem solved. With that you will need to go as party with more ppl, that i think is what the game is made for.

    If you want to play solo, go and download a single player game. this is MMO (MASSIVE MULTIPLAYER ONLINE) Game. Your reasons are not bad but you are "demanding" something ridiculous convenient only for YOU.
