it would be nice not having to fire up 2-3 different pc's just for L2, a couple of giran shops, a few mentees and a main with your iss, you sort of need more than 3

back in the day, the weapon was everything, now you can have good gear and a blessed exalpted weapon and still be able to kill. Generally speaking, most of the people that want that kind of stuff are f2p players ( before any1 says anything, there is nothing wrong with being f2p) which overall, its not that big of an increase considering the amount of gear you need from graduation to be able to kill in areas like Ivory Tower.

a +12 R110 bloody is still better than +20 blessed exalted

i meant +7 R99 weapon! sorry

+0 to +12 yes there is some damage increase but having a bloody +12 R110 has more damage, the adena for each scroll is a couple of bil so 24b for a +12 blessed exalted weapon but the stats on the weapon are fixed and Damage Dealer do not benefit from blessed exalted weapon due to the nature of the stats if I remember correctly, +0 Blessed Exalted weapon = the same Patk of a R99 weapon you get an augument that has 10% pdef/mdef/Matk/Patk and 5% p atk/p skill/m smill crit dmg, an exalted soul crystal which is the equivalent of a shilen 5 ( if I remember correctly), but not augument a +12 Bloody R110 weapon has 5% pve dmg more than the exalted soulshot damage 8.4% ( not sure if an enchanted weapon gets that) you can add 2 soul crystals for p skill crit rate/p skill crit dmg 10% for fairly cheap ( p/m crit dmg, or p/m atk) and on top of that, up to 20% p/m crit dmg or p/m skill power 15% in conclusion with 24bil, ( i.e) getting +12 exalted weapon you can get 3-5% more damage? or something like that? with 75 bil you get roughly 13% more dmg, plus all the skill related soul crystals, plus the augument. The increase in damage is way more if you take into consideration everything. so the money (20+bil) you throw on the exalted weapon is something you can never get back.

oh and while you are at it guys, increase the amount of stored accounts from 5 to 10 or 14 or something!

nop.... there was a timer since day 1, I know cuz I was timing it to match the server downtime.

im really wondering why? why sell "imprint aka bound scrolls", you want the red glow for style points or something? I do not see any class using this unless its an eviscerator (maybe?) or a dagger?

Classic died 5 months aftre launch! Now as far as the list you have its obvious you are not aware of the game that you play. Map expansion in classic? you are not supposed to get a map expansion Subclass/ Noble quests do not exist as they were never in the game, nor any plas to implement it ( in Classic) Attract new players to Classic? its been dead for 4 years! they do not even do campaigns for Live or Aden I asume you are not even aware of the Classic project, you may have played Lineage for a long time but classic launched October 2018, those 19years were nto on classic "real classic" only exists in other servers and in your head, L2 has evolved moved on from C5/interlude/Gracia, deal with it. chinese developers? did not know we had any! NC never listened to what players want, if that took you 19 years to realise, then welcome to the world of L2. You can see the annual reports from NC Korea, its all there, revenue by game! lastly you are confusing the job of a GM with a game tester, GM;s are not supposed to "play" the game, however they are supposed to know the game. All that just points to limited experience with the official L2 servers!

pretty sure that was an exception or something, we never get the same updates, we usually get stuff after 6-7 months if not more and with no notice in advance!

im trying to be nice here but didnt we get an update like 3 months ago?

didnt they hire developers to migrate to a newer unreal engine or something? I think that was back in 2020....

fairytales, sprinkles and a dreamworld... say what you want, like I said on an earlier post, I like to live in reality, and the reality is that quests did not contribute so much, it was ok to do some, maybe get what you want, but repeating the same quest over an over, was not worth it at least effrort vs reward. WoW was a quest based game, L2 was a grinding game with some distractions you call quests. Could you play L2 without quests? ( aside the important ones I mentioned)? yes you could, could you plauy WoW without quests? no, with a simple deduction method you can see that quests in L2 are not that important. I try to be on the players side with a more realistic approach, if you are used to have everything sugarcoated to you so you can accept it, then it is not my problem. Most of you did not even read what the 3 lines I typed mean.

i hated that quest... ngl

yeah. its not the same as Aden (essence)

it might be a language barrier but what this phrase is saying is "the most imortant quests were class transfer(s), subclass quest and noble quest, other than those the rest were garbage" Yes, doing the quests with friends were awesome also doing the clan 4 or 5 quests where you get i think 3 members poisoned and you would go on a treasure hunt, a race against time before they die.

bruh... its right there on the reply... "Name 3 quests besides class transfer(s), subclass quest and noble quest......" I did play the game, had mulitple accounts and would do the quest with my eyes closed, you just confirmed what I just said, if that was still the case right now, you think people would be allowed to add a dualclass for less than 50b? Also I think you mean the "subclass quest" stabbing baium with the dagger, which you had to pay the clan that was killing it to allow you to enter before they PK you... Noble quest had 2 rather "hard" parts, a) finding the ingredients to mix in the urn, was not always avialable and getting in the party to get last hit on barakiel. But feel free to tell me that I did not play the game!

Its not a matter of approval or not, I like to operate in reality and I have also learned to adapt to the changes that the devs throw at us. So quests, are boring ( that is my opinion), little to no rewards (fact), usually a quest area had less adena drops since you could "potentially" make that up from the quest etc (another fact). Before coming back in the game and while I was going through the ugly first levels with little to no gear myself, I sat down and read every chnage that has taken place since I quit, new items, new skills, new classes everything. Forums are here to help people and if you had taken the time ( like the OP here) to read a little bit, you would see that I have no problem typing walls of text to help out people whent they need to know something, I even go out of my way to ask for specifics before typing a generic reply. What I cannot stand is stupidity and if you know me as you claim, this means you are an old player, and as an old player there is one thing you should know and that part of the game is figuring out how to do more with what you have. to the 1% comment, you see, back in the day, you could control who has access to bosses, drops and rare items, clans would hold a server and there was competition, if you were competent enough, active and could press them buttons you would get rewarded with rare items, it was a 2 way cooperation between the individual in question and the clan he was in. The more active you were, the more items you would get, farming olympiad 24/7 would also give you that advantage, feeding clan members etc. Additionally, it could be dumb luck but we had players that knew Korean and would give us heads up on the changes before all that info was widely available, so we could control the market. simple right?

so basically just a small reward after killing thousands of mobs! got it. I can list over a dosen quests of the top of my head that were literally useless, same as ketra and varka, you have to get to level 5 of the quest to get something, then it was the MoS quest for EWS ( 5000 marks for 1 ews) , the red gem gambling game, the red fabric quest to get A grade parts (10 fabrics for 1 part) , which noone did btw, pagans quests for BEAR ( which was later on) I guess you can also add the mixing urn quest that you could get stuff there (Besides the Noble quest), contributing seal stones for Dawn/Dusk that was a quest too. Even the manor was a thing, but tell me 1 time you managed to do it.... my point is that deleting the quests is not that big of a deal, the new system we have for rewards combined with the autohunt is much better. The only difference is that the "returning" player that did the comment, has no idea of the changes that have taken place the past few years. We all know that unless you hit 110 and with some gear, there is literally nothing you can do other than smash mobs usually 4-5 levels lower than you. Rewards from the "new" system that has been around for quite some time. -Aden Trasure Chest -Shiny Aden Trasure Chest -Crisis -Venusta boxes (from dailies) -Castilla Daily -Atelia/Pantheon (IoS) for adena -ToI for adena and drops love the 101010101 comment! but I will tell you this, AoEing FoG/Pagans was much more profitable compared to hunting for recipes in Ketra/Varka. That is why i was in the top 1% and you are still bitter. Lets try this another way cuz one thing I can tell you for sure, is that I have a pretty good memory, 4 hours in Pagans was like 300mil and you needed like 5 hours in ketra to get a recipe or something, so forgive for dissing on the quest logic. p.s. who are you? I mean those are some serious allegations but even then, seeing a name from the good old days is always nice!

sorry to say, that is awfull gear.. I really am not trying to insult or belittle your toon but you have chosen the "worst class" to "start" having "old" gear... so they revamped the areas and how element works, you do not have damage, that gear is bad like really bad, at least on its own, the +8 set is good for the 10% reuse but those jewels are plain bad.... Keep in mind that I am an archer as well... so I speak from experience. The list is long but the game has changed a lot, so here are a few tips. Hunt in Hellbound till you hit 110 - ( when I had similar gear, i was there too) General rule of thumb, always hunt in areas 3-4 levels lower than you Element defense is big, Tersi's armor crystals lv5 are cheap, x6 is 7200 pdef, ( you can put SA crystals in armor/jewels and 3 on weapon) Get a R110 blessed Sigil can put Element 3x 180, SA, and augument, this will help you a bit for Rings, Angel Ring +6, Fallen angel ring +6 ( roughly 12-15b each) earrings +6 fallen angel earring, +!2 Atlas earring ( if you have) Necklace , ( you can bet the blessed exalted set from the store, the Neclace is one of the items that is worth it) additionally , Circlet is good and the agathion bracelet as well. Get a lv2 artifact book and fill it with +0 artifacts ( bonus is 5% damage, -6% damage received) chef monkey belt and the list goes on. Start with that, get other peoples opinion ( if you want) but as an archer you also need to aim for 107 Dex, for good skill crit rate which is rather expensive as well.

for the love of god... Name 3 quests besides class transfer(s), subclass quest and noble quest...... You all make such a big issue about quests, when in reality the quests were never a thing in L2..

next update you can change to OL/evis/dk but you also asume the race but keep your current gender (on red libra), that is the latest from korea

none taken... elaborate

once a month, cancel anytime you want (dunno about refunds etc) im talking about the subscription only. applies to a single toon of your choice.

+10 r99 has 10% extra pdef, but 180 less element 3x 120 vs 3x 180 per slot, R110 has better stats and element depending on your total element defense, you can go r110 +8 , there is also the R110 sigil that you can put 3x180 element and of course you can put tersi 5 for the pdef, as a mage I would asume you do not have that much pdef so 6x tersi 5 is 7200 pdef which is way more than the 10% you get from the R99 +10, sure it may cost more but you will not be looking to upgrade any time soon.
