Greetings guys, Does the skill of Elemental Summoner/Soultaker/Phantom Summoner, Wizard/Warrior/Assassin Servitor stack with Final Servitor? And does all those skills require Spirit Ores to cast ?

Greetings, This is just me sharing my experience on farming as a F2P player in Aden version. Hope it will help Now, to make Profit, I follow this formula: Profit = Revenue/Income - Cost Profit: the amount of adena you actually earn after deducting all the costs Revenue/Income: The gross amount of adena you earn for killing mobs (drops are excluded) Cost: consumables needed to generate Revenue/Income, such as sayha grace potions, spirit shots, spirit ores, hp pots, att/def scrolls etc. In any certain farming zone (Plain of Glory, for instance), for 1 sayha grace potion, you get a fixed number of money (regardless of how fast you kill, you kill faster, sayha grace burns just as fast) ==> Revenue/Income is a fixed number per ONE SAYHA POTION FOR THAT ZONE . Therefore, in order to maximize profit for a particular farming zone, we need to minimize cost. The question is How? 1. Picked a farming class. In my opinion, Arcana lord is the easiest to make money because he has the lowest cost to play among other classes. 2. Pick out a skill combo that has the lowest cost, which is: LVL 76 AND BELOW: - Buffs: Restore mana lvl 1 + Empower + Berserker's spirit + All available survitor buffs (All are free). This will cost you 9x3x24=648 spirit ores per 24 hours. You get up to 700 spirit ores (500 from 10 sayha grace mission, up to 200 from daily hunting mission) + from events if available. That means the cost for ores is 0 - Skills: Mana Recharge (free from survitor), Vampiric rage (has 40% life steal with 46 power which is strong enough for up to lvl 70 mobs without having to use spirit shots), Survitor Smart Heal. That means the cost for spirit shots and hp pot is 0 (only use the free shot tickets is good enough). Also, since we don't need att/def scrolls and exp scrolls (higher exp = higher burn of sayha), the cost for scrolls is 0 (free scrolls are also good but not a must-have) LVL 77 and ABOVE: -Buffs: Restore mana lvl 1 + Haste + Berserker's Spirit + All available survitor buffs (All are free). Cost is as above -Skills: Normal attack + Self Heal + Survitor Smart Heal (We will go as melee because after lvl 77, we have Feline King which is stronger so we have normal attack to follow him so we can pick up loots. Cost is also the same as above All put together, the Cost is only 500k to buy 10 sayha grace potions to farm every day (this could be lowered if you can buy l2 1k box with the price under 2.5kk per box) With only 10 grace potions + 10 cookies, how much revenue can be generated? That depends on the zone (not the speed with which you kill) you farm in. For instance, without shots and scrolls, at Plain of Glory, with 10 grace potions + 10 cookies + 50 small sayha grace potions (Free and only available for lvl 76+), I can farm approximately 18 hours with an average 70k adena per hour + 5% adena for the rest of the day. (You earn more if there's a event with free grace potions/cookies given) Conclusion, while other classes require Soulshots/Spiritshots, HP pots, higher lvl Restore buffs and many other buffs, which burn ores faster, Arcana Lord uses only 3, which cost only 9 per 20 mins (27 per hour), not to mention he has many free survitor buffs. That makes him a Adena grinding machine indeed. Thanks NCSoft for making Summoners useful and needed again

To start off, I'm not complaining nor am I blaming anyone. Your product, your price. As simple as that But I certainly won't buy a L2 1k box at a 3.5 mil+ price. Here's why: 1. 1k coins can only buy me 50 sayha grace potions, which cost exactly 2,5kk adena and I only need to buy the potions to farm so why should I pay an incredibly higher amount ?. It's simply unlogical :)) 2. I agree that the l2 boxes is more convenient than adena because they can be used to purchase other great stuff so a "convenient" fee is highly acceptable but come on guys, selling at 6-7 mils per box is so insane that it's laughable :)) I know and understand your needs for money but please think logically and reasonably. It's a right thing to do. I'm just saying. I love the game and I'd love to see more players to come, not to go. This is just my opinions, feel free to discuss guys. Thanks for your time

For your number 1, bro, If you want money for skills/items, you need to farm for a long time. Even P2W players have to farm (they just don't worry about adena too much BUT THEY STILL HAVE TO SPEND TIME and FARM to convert their real-life money into adena ). You need to play Farmers/PVE classes to farm. You can't expect PVP-oriented classes to farm as efficient as farmer/PVE classes. It's the same for every game. I know for sure there are at least 4 classes you can farm adena with because I've been playing them since day 1 (Elf, Dark Elf, Human Summoners, Necromancer) For your number 2, with PVE classes, D-grade amours, no-grade accessories and Aden weapon are sufficient enough even after 3rd class-transfer (Trust me, I've been playing with those items up until now and yet I earn an average of 1 mil/day for one account and I play 10 account simultaneously). You're obviously an F2P player, just like me, so my advice is play a bunch of farmers until you have enough money ,or if you're lucky enough, until you random-craft good gears (I random-crafted a top A Shooter and 2-hand Blunt so these things happen, just so you know), to gear your main(s) Also, avoid PVP at all cost in order to farm. Don't get personal if you get pk'ed. The game has been like that and people do sh*tty things to others just because they can. Horrible people exist, best thing to do is to ignore them. I guess the daily hunting missions are intended like that to keep you engaged to some degree. Look at the bright sides, by checking the missions, you can also check your characters to see how they're doing every once in a while There's a trick to farm as a mage and you don't even need Restore Mana and HP lvl 2. This is the combo I use For buffs, Restore Mana lvl 1, Empower or Berserker's spirit, Acumen (this will cost you 9x3x24=648 spirit ores/day, you will get 500 ores from using 10 sayha grace potions daily + 200 ores (lvl 76+) from daily hunting missions = 700 ore/day. That means you don't have to worry about ores if you use the above buffs only) For skills (Elf Mage, for instance), on your hotkey bar, from f1 to f6, put Hydro Blast + Hydro Blast + Self-heal (lvl 3) + hydro blast + Body-to-mind lvl 1 (If you have to up this skill higher, use the buff Restore HP lvl 1 as well to ensure survivability) + Self-heal (lvl3). Hope this helps

For Aden, it's 10 accs/Pc but you will get random disconnections easily due to high traffic in the server My recommendation: 3-5 accs is good enough

It's not unplayable, the combo of Vampiric claws and Body-to-mind skills makes Soultaker is formidable for PVE-farming, not to mention the combo of her survitor + share pain to make her even harder to kill in PvE. Soultaker is the hardest mage to kill in L2 in my opinions. What else do you ask for ? Just because one specific skill need reworking, the class became unplayable ? No class is unplayable in L2 lols. If you want perfection, go create your own games (although I doubt it'll be perfect)

Right now, there are no quests to obtain extra equipments except for the class-change quests. However, level 40+ hunting zones will drop equipments with a low chance, just be patient and the loots will come. Make sure the monster is close to you when you kill them. Furthermore, right now there's a code to apply in your account page to claim free items (sayha grace, ss tickets, ores etc.). Go claim them now, you can see the details at Official News | Lineage II (lineage2.com) You can learn more about monsters and drops and also other infos at Knowledge base Lineage II (l2central.info)

This version of Linage 2 is solo-hunting oriented. That means no party buff, except for Greater Group Heal of Bishop, some song and dance skills of Swordsinger and Bladedancer ( for example, https://dev.l2central.info/essence/items/95530.html?lang=en ). For any other buffers, even after 3rd transformation, there won't be party buffs

Hello, welcome to Aden My recommendations to farm adena: 1. you can play up to 10 accounts on 1 computer, so make full use of that. You should play 9 farmers and 1 favorite character as a main. That way your main can level continuously 2. Farmers should be the class that needs no/very little consumption of Soulshots and Spirit Ores per hour. My favorite is Human Summoner a.k.a Arcana Lord (other summoners should be fine but they don't have as useful SURVITOR buffs as human summoner). Even with NO Soulshots, Spirit Ores and Sayha Grace, you will still earn POSITIVE income. I tried, I made 30-60k adena per 24 hours WITHOUT soulshots, spirit ores and sayha at Field of Masacre. WIth that being said, anything free the server give you will get you more money on top of that basic income. Summon Kat the Kat + Survitor attack + Master Recharge + Survitor Smart Heal + all the free character buffs + all the survitor buffs and you're good to go. No shots, ores and sayha needed. It takes times to farm like this but since we're F2P players, we don't have lots of options available, it's the same for F2P players in any other games, just a matter of more or less so :). I'm poor and cheap so I never pay for this game ever but I'm still doing great in terms of adena. Hope the same for you :3 3. DO NOT use soulshots and/or boosters to farm when Sayha Grace (300% exp) is on. The amount of adena you can earn for every stack of Sayha Grace (300% exp) is the same whether you use soulshot/boosters or not. With soulshots you will earn money faster, but sayha grace will burn just as fast, so why waste the soulshots/boosters. Instead, save soulshots/boosters for when you have the sayha-will (1day) or sayha-will (30 days), then you use soulshots/boosters because those two Sayha are time-limited, you need to kill as fast as possible to maximize your income 4. Be patient. Rome isn't built in one day. So spend some time to learn about the game mechanics and you'll figure out more ways to earn adena without spending any real life money. You're just slower than people who pay but you'll get there nontheless :) P/s: When only your Survitor hit the creeps, the random creep won't appear, yay :))). Also, beware of the aggressive creeps, positioning is crucial for summoners to farm Good luck and have fun, bro. Play the game, don't let the game play us :3333

Don't be so pessimistic, NCSoft DOES give you ways to earn money that's sufficient for you to run your main character. You just need to learn how to, it will take some time so be patient :3333
