That's the description for the event for Primeval Isle. But... there is not a double drop chance. It's double the scrolls dropped. So this a very typical, text book NCSoft event setting. DOUBLE NOTHING EQUALS NOTHING.

At least support is somewhat clear in what is needed. Basically any PvE-setup clan has to flush a bunch of CRP to go into PvP-clan skill tree and all of that for like 1500 CRP as reward, and a 0,000001% chance of Lv5 box which has a 0,00001% of Ruby lv5. It's the first "free" event they do in years, which isn't Libra or anniversary, and it just totally sucks and is for the 1% only.

We need a real Dual to Main service and not some Stone of Destiny thing that comes years to late. I want my dual class to be my main, with everything attached to it. Not having to do 4 jumps to get to that stage. Especially the grind back to 112 is something I don't wanna do all over on my main

Isn't the whole point of support to give clear YES or NO answers on simple cases like this. And they didn't. They always refer to forums to discuss things like this or just anything patch related, but than on forums nobody @Juji@Hime@PhoenixMitrareplies to it. At least back in the 'good old days' when there was an issue addressed on forum or a simple question like this being asked Neutron, Sace, Omega, Spam, Buster replied and gave a clear answer. Now... It's guessing, seeing people using stuff that might be fishy, fellow players recommending just to go with it. While real bug reports, questions about functionality etc. are being ignored when clearly things have been adjusted without being mentioned in any patch/maintenance notes.

But the Etina Solo bug is just bad game design on a simple HTML file. The melee lag is caused by bots, been admitted by Juji and cannot be solved because dev team cannot replicate the issue and Juji is not willing to finally drop the hammer for once on Naia and Chronos because than 85% of the NCoin sales will disappear. And you cannot have that of course.

Exactly! With a potential 150-200b item obtained after siege, it's a fly trap for big clans to lock down all castles in the last 15-20min like they have been doing for years. Letting the rest of the clans be stuck with exp losses, major loss of adena for defensive buff items etc. @JujiWould be nice if you clear up the conditions for the Clan Quest reward to trigger.

I hope you're discussing the fact that the update created an unbridgeable difficulty gap due to NA servers not being geared like the Korean servers.

Exactly man! Mobs became harder to kill, give the same exp, the same drop and many players have to go down in level range to be able to survive auto hunt exp. On top of that it looks very much like the auto hunt skill casting delay has been increase and re-targeting is also slower than prior to the update. Making exp less efficient and less optimised unless you use a bot / keyboard macro to do it all for you.

I meant with it that Naia and Chronos have TONS of people playing on dual class because either their main class is no longer viable (Wynn, Iss, Tank) for PvE/PvP or they got bored of main (reaching a certain level) and focused on dual class. I remember Draecke was doing big campaign to get the Dual->Main service reinstated or do the char split like Korea. So Naia/Chronos have a lot of people having to switch from their grind dual class to main to fight in Oly and farm Mark of Battles. Also... to just get into the stupidity of inventory; If you have 158 inventory slots and 125 of them are filled with items you cannot receive rewards any more. Castilla NPC will just drop your reward box on the floor. Even if opening up the box it's MAX 4 items and you have 20 slots to spare. Logic does not apply in the world of Lineage II.

Koreans had (or still have) MAIN/DUAL split service thus they don't have the issue of having to go main to do Oly while you grind on dual.

Many things I want to mentioned are already mentioned but let's go again, because according to support "awareness on forum is key for developers to do adjustments". @Hime @Juji 1) The monster adjustment is a game killer. Within my clan many people can't exp in the hunting zone any more where they spend months before. Personally I was grinding day in day out in Field of Whispers prior to the update. The only deaths I had were to me running out of supplies (no Blessed Spirit Shots, no Spirit Ore on myself or Iss) and not because of receiving to much damage. Now the same spot where I spend 3 months is kicking my butt. Mobs hit way harder than they did before and the auto hunt just cannot use skills fast enough to kill them fast enough. Everybody I spoke to had to down grade their exp spot. And it's pretty damn demotivating that me, at level 111, have to go all the way down to a lv107 zone to make sure I don't die from some insane mob spawn (more than 4 mobs on me equals death on lv109+ zones) or some critical hit. At these level 107 zones I standing there most of the time doing nothing because mobs die to fast. Over all hourly exp crashed down tons compared to before the update, adena and drop income has vanished because really killing 60% less mobs per hour. If I have to start taking a healer and a tank to an exp spot that is designed for solo play, than exping is not worth it at all any more. 2) I don't mind a challenge in the game. But my CC was able to kill Antharas in like 15 minutes with 3 parties and a few alt Tyrr Warriors. I was expecting that with this update Antharas would take a bit more time and would give us a refreshed challenge. But no. The update has boosted Antharas so much that even with a full CC of 5 parties, it is a no go. Completely wiping off any income to the CC and the players in a game where income already has been killed off due to increased mob difficulty. Don't get me wrong. I do like having a refreshed challenge but if the challenge means having to start all over after 12 months, going from able to kill a boss with a well co-ordinated group of players to not even able to dent it any more. That's not a challenge. That is game play destruction. 3) The auto hunt has been adjusted to become so much that it became almost impossible to use it effectivly. In the mean while you see archers on every timed zone spamming skills and retargeting like a machine gun because they use either a bot program, or keyboard/mouse macros. I highly doubt they are some kind of new breed of humans that can do multiply inputs per millisecond. On top of the slowed down auto hunt that really takes more time to cast skills and to retarget than prior to the update, it's impossible to play as a melee class because we still have the melee hit delays. 4) The "increased pick up range" is not an increase at all and a total joke. I can hit mobs at a range of 900-1100 and when I kill a mob on max range my character doesn't loot anything. And frankly enough, thank god, in various zones I am able to one-shot mobs. So when I am auto hunting on a place like Primeval Island I have to be live otherwise I miss out on drops. If that was just a material it wouldn't be that bad, but if that drop is potential 400m (Crystal of Dawn) or any of the enchant scrolls (30-80m ea) and only looting at best 6 scrolls (see point 3, which causes this issue) while I have drop and prestige pack running is a total downer. The increased pick up range has only been increased slightly and doesn't help ranged classes at all!

@Hime @Juji After a battle with support and sending multiply tickets to drag out a clear YES or NO I drew a blank and they keep beating around the bush. Their latest, but still no clear YES or NO, reply is: When I go Storm Isle, Primeval Isle, Field of Crisis, Isle of Souls or see a stream of e.g. ExeQu7or every single spot is filled with archers that have inhuman fast retargeting speed. Even the in game auto hunt system doesn't retarget that fast, nor does an in game macro with /nexttarget 2 /delay 0. So it's clear they using out of game assistance. I have done some test myself and using a keyboard macro and on with the macro assisting me in retargeting my income doubles and even triples on some spots. I dig through the EULA several times and there is nothing mentioned about it. So what's the deal?
