Welp, ain't gonna lie, you got us in the first half. And for the first half i mean when we couldn't burst priests in 5 mins like we do now. You guys managed to stop us by coming back 30 times each and zerking raid, not by whiping us, altho, the mission was successfull. So that's a GG for you. How is that our fault? You guys got one rush that day, wiped with 0 deaths on our side and you didn't bother to come back or try again. Instead, Goodfellas and Asgard clans disbanded dropping down to 10-14 players. You managed to get those raids we couldn't burst or 80+ and those we didn't bother to burst. Your "force" was getting rekt any time you guys tried a rush, all you could do was slowing us and zerking raids. In the other hand tho, your clan failed King Tarik cause it went zerk and we didn't pre-hitted it to start the zerk countdown. Currently your only hope is bigmac running with several drivers and the new owner of dwalin, whoever bought that account. Kyosuke is still too weak, not enough p2w to make any difference in pvp. Which is fun to see how one can be bad when gears and levels are on a fair status, no wonder some players love Aden/Essence version of L2.

Why would you drop items when killed by a mob? There's no reason, you have a chance to drop ur items when killed by other players, the chance is quite low, i can assure you that maybe ONE guy out of 50-100 drops. So unless you are dying from 1 guy 100 times per die, it's unlikely to drop, you really have to be unlucky. Sometimes it happens, no big deal.

You could pay with Adenas eh...anyway worst case scenario you can gift NCoin items from one account to ur main so you are not gonna "lose" those l1000s.

Your english is so broken it's hard to understand what are you trying to say. You can get refund if you ask Paypal for that. Chances of getting refund are low and your account is getting a 100% ban from NCWest. But you can try ur luck with Paypal and explain to them why you're asking for a refund. 1) Chances of you getting ur money back is low. 2) Refund or not, you're account will be gone. If you died and lost ur weapon, you can get it back via "restore system", pay a fee and ur weapon will be back. Imagine if you could pay 500 euros to fully gear up! Or let's say 1000 euros to get top gear! In no time people will get top geared and NCWest will do 0 profits. While if items are "expensive" (cause 25 euros for 1 l8000 is like illegal but w/e) and requires lot of tries, whales will spend 50-100k euros and ggwp, imagine having 10 players of that kind, spending like 1000-2000 euros per event while average players spend 100-200 euros per event. What's better for them? Make ur math.

AH just to be fair: i'm on ur side. I don't like this system AT ALL and they should totally change things to make the game MORE f2p friendly cause all this "pay to play" is totally insane and worthless. But we know it ain't gonna change so...And we talking about NCwest, they don't listen when customers tells them how to fix the server lag issue (lowering clients to 5 instead of 10) but they just don't care about doing it. Classic and Aden shares the same boxes, but Classic is completely dead, like for real, so dead that they are not competing for hero anymore, there are like 8 heroes and they all got 10 matches only. So lowering clients to 5 wont change a thing since there's none left on Classic.

People forgot how L2 used to be back in the days. Remember how you were full dropping ur items when killed BY MOBS? Ok so this at least keep ur item even tho you gotta pay a lil fee to get it back. You guys will ALWAYS complain for useless things LIKE THIS, then when you gotta complain about real problems (like the problem that they removed the war system) nobody says a thing. The game is SOLO cause you can do XP and PVP ALONE as you can buff urself and sustain ur own things without logging boxes to buff you. The fact that you think that "solo game" means "one account" is your problem only. L2 is free to play cause you can log and do things w/o paying, but if you want to keep going you gotta drop those $, no "but"s. And this is how all L2 officials now works so either ride the train or go back to illegal servers with custom fixes, corrupted GMs and 1-2 months life span.

Check carefully your screen. You ain't losing items when you die. Bottom-right corner of ur screen, there should be a "restore" icon. In case the icon is missing, ALT+X (to open general menu) > second column > Restore items. Doing that you will recover your lost item. The chance of dropping an item when you're killed (white) is there but is REAAALLY low. It increases when you're red and the more karma you have the more items/chances you have to drop ur items. But you are not losing it. Pay a fee for Lcoins or adenas and you're ready to go again.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiXGxa7su7o&t=739s Here you can see Gucci playing as WR. Daggers here are not performing cause rework is missing...i fought a few of them, pre-76 i had some issues cause since HPs are low when they stabs you 2k you're already half dead...not to mention bleed dmg + DOT that was a problem. Now that we're over 76 they should not be a issue anymore but is early game so daggers are still "ok". As for me playing my dagger, yeah. But i wont be using that as main, i'll level up one for fun (unsure about WR or GH, TH is not impressive, altho it looks cool after rework) and chill eventually.

You guys are...hopeless. NCWest didn't create anything. NCKorea aka NCSoft did. NCWest is a publisher. Classic version is dead even on Korea, reason why they are not upgrading the game since...years maybe? I read the updates for their server weekly and Classic is only getting minor fixes and rarely events and updates. I'm not even sure Classic had any update since years. Live server is still going great and updated regularly with patches and fixes. Server is 2 weeks old here, but the game version is over 2 years old. We are currently missing contents like Fortress, olympiads (that are bs) and cross-server instances. And this is pretty much a lie. Currently one of the worst as it really shows the difference between p2w abusers and reworked classes vs average player and nonreworked classes. Currently titans, tyrants and DKs over-perform compared to any other class cause they are reworked. Also fighting against any reworked class is close to impossible for nonreworked classes, let's take for example archers, daggers and mages: none of them (unless super p2w) stand a chance against orcs or DKs. They are reworking all classes so now tanks, daggers and archers are endgame playable as well, not to mention i see lots of people rerolling to dagger that are doing insane good (Gucci on WR is smashing titans and DKs easly, end game vs end game). But this is now. For the last...2 years? We had DK supremacy first and titan+DK later. They tryin' to fix their own past mistakes but it takes time and lot of rage and $$$ to be able to perform good cause they made the game so broken that now is only about p2w gear AND skills. Even tho, it's more about skills than p2w as all veterans from EU essence knows how hard it changes with just one more skill.

Elcadia server is starting to lag as well, thanks god no crash yet but heavy lag... @Sunshine can you guys please discuss and drop down boxes from 10 to 5? Even 3 would be perfect but really, 10 boxes per PC is too much. I do understand that clients are shared classic + essence...is there no way to change it so essence has it's own box limit and get it down to 5?

Then please think about buying glasses. People definition of zerg in 2021 is totally off. Enemy CC always counted 20-30 people. Our CC always counted 20-30 people. You can even see their people dying 3 vs 5/6 or 5 vs 6+. Not to mention they have 2 top titans and 1 top DK (79 79 77) and we have at best a lv 76.

Ok for some reason i can't edit my post but it's a mistake from their side, weird eh? Candy basket gives you 1 atk or def scroll but 5 ss tickets and 100 spirits ores. Which is bad as heck but i mean, it's almost free. Almost.

p2w is not for sure but... 1x SS ticket and 1x spirit ores is a mistake or for real? lol

A touching story indeed, welcome to the nostalgia players group. Time goes by and things evolve, games evolve and even you evolved. Like a pokemon. And as the time move forward you cannot do anything but to look at the past and sigh, reviving those memories that made you happy. It's like falling in love with a band! You love how they sound...you love their songs, the lyrics! The feelings! But then the band release a new album and the genre changes. It's not what you used to love. And you have 2 choices. Get stuck in their previous songs and quit listening to their future releases or just understand that the band you love is still there, somewhere, but it had to change. You said that urself: "it makes me physically sick to start over". And this is where the game changed. Now let's for a moment ignore the GOD servers that started really bad, they wanted to improve the game, they wanted to bring some fresh air into the game we loved! And they failed. Ok so, keep this in mind. As the patches moved on they tried to fix their mistakes and classes were split again and started to be back to their "unique original form". The classes started to be more and more fun to play and way more contents getting into the game with new lore! Classic servers tried to get players to join back using their nostalgia. But statistics are talking loud: they failed yet again. Why? Cause Classic had nothing of classic. At the very start on EU servers you had a 100% nostalgia feeling with those 'hardcore' settings and p2p. Paying for each one of the accounts, slow XP with ur pt, crafting and spoiling! And let's not forget the NA start! Daaaam the crowd! And now one last step. Essence or, for the new guys, Aden. And alternative server where you can see the "what if" of the GOD. What would happen if we were not going to get awakening at 85? Well, we're gonna figure it out! But...we probably wont. Cause all the 3 projects were doomed and are doomed to fail as they share 1, disruptive, mechanics: p2w abuse. Now, do you remember when i early told ya "They wanted to bring fresh air into the game, but failed"? Ok so this is it, all over again, for all their projects. And i'm not talking about NCWest eh, they are publishers. I mean the NCKorea. The reason why they turned the game into a legit afk-to-play is cause as you said, people is no longer willing to spend months grinding to get 1 level. This, is an helpfull feature. There's no longer a gap (at least on XP) between legits and not. Problem is they are making you pay a lot to allow you to even XP, as you can see on Aden servers. You said there's no drops nor adena. I can tell you that you are wrong. I'm dropping tons of C/B armors and i dropped so far 3 weapons C myself. I managed to get 1 full plate set and 1 divine robe set from full drops + several no-set boots/gloves/helms. Also an Avadon leather armor. As for the adenas, so far i farmed probably over 30kk adenas (but i wasted them on items so rip). This is it, sadly. The reason why you can't see the point of this game anymore is cause you're looking from the wrong point. Auto hunt to help you level up and farm while you do other stuffs. A game where you gotta spend lots of moneys to keep XPing and gearing up to get on top. A game where you can do anything on your own, no time to waste with parties. This is the goal of the Aden version. F2P but P2P. Later on the P2P will turn into heavy P2W. Look at the Awakening servers: P2W is so insane that classes are perfectly balanced now. They all oneshot each others.
