Hello @Wissp and welcome! I hear you are starting a fresh new character and attempting to be free to play, I appreciate the spirit! I have many videos on youtube that are geared toward new / returning players, so you may be able to find some helpful information there! Speaking of which, it seems NCWEST staff / GM's do not have a strong community presence both in game, and out of game (via live streams, social media interactions etc). I challenge you, along with other NCWEST staff, to start engaging more with the community, not only on the forums, but in game, out of game, and just in general. This game unfortunately does not have the best "PR" associated with it, and there is a lot of negativity / toxicity in the community that i think turns new players away. I personally feel if the GM's became more transparent / involved with the community, that could potentially help increase community perception of the game. A few recommendations or examples I would love to suggest would be hosting in game community events (such as equalized PVP tournaments, hide and seek events etc), reaching out to the content creators of the game and trying to bridge the gap there (maybe join some live streams for Q&A, start a podcast or something like that for the community to listen to and get a glimpse into whats to come in L2's future), and logging in to the game (on your GM character) on a fairly regular / frequent basis to show the community that the staff is active and involved. Welcome again, and if some guy named H0RR0R ever PK's / griefs you in game (he only picks on new / low level players), please feel free to message BoBandy and I will gladly come and take care of that problem for you!

I am curious on the logic / rationale behind labeling something as a "sale" when the guaranteed items that come from the chests are 3x more expensive then what they are in the ncoin store? I thought the point of a sale was supposed to be a discount? To do the math.... 1 box (5 keys guaranteed) = 80 ncoin 30 keys required to make a mastery chapter 1 book = 6 boxes = 480 ncoin Currently in the ncoin store i can buy a mastery chapter 1 book for 160 ncoin Can someone help me understand how this is a sale?

because it would have no use on these forums

but its literally called a SALE?!

I would like an explanation from NCSOFT how they label this as a "SALE" and yet the price of the items has now gone up??? price of cloaks were already un-affordable....now they are somehow more expensive??

Enough is enough. Why is Lineage 2 releasing zones at level 124 that require a 20k+ (yes thats 20,000 USD) toon to be able to farm at it?!? It's only going to get worse from here unless we as a community demand change! Your new zones that you release are becoming more and more unpopulated...because less and less players can afford to even play the game at the level required for the updates you release! What good is the money spent on creating new content, if no one can afford to play it?! My thoughts on the topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kwh_8xK9Rc&t=5s
