  1. After waiting so long a friend of mine that follows your discord send me one reply from Rownen regarding the monthly consumble that were usually distrubuted at the start of the month. According to his answer the monthly consumable codes  were part of an event for the year of 2023.

    In previous answer from another Game Master in 2023 he said that it was something that was given to  the players as community requested it (player Nostromo 17/01/2023).

    Nevertheless I would like to ask you to again re-establish the distribution of monthly consumables for the reasons below:
    - Not all players have donated and cannot generate the gold to keep up with your events .

    - The monthly consumables distribution was a help to any new player that entered the game.

    - Some classes (other than Assasins, Titans, Soul hounds, Cardinals, Death Knights etc) cannot generate the same gold as other. Moreover some classes are most costly than others. So the monthly consumable was a helping hand to players of any class at the start of the month.

     

    In case you do not want to re-establish the monthly consumables at least introduce other solutions e.g. increase the daily max number of spirit ore, cookies and ss tickets you can buy and also decrease their cost.

     

    Lastly, if you are going to enact a new policy that affects new players please also post it to forum and also point out your reasons that led you there. Otherwise you do not respect the community. (Also some of the people here do not follow your discord).

    With respect,

    Dear GMs, the game is becoming more and more unequal, between those who can pay large amounts increase their equipment and continue to get rich, even reselling what they have left over, and those who can only pay from time to time, or never.

    Please consider opening the catacombs, so we can get ancient adena more efficiently and get equipment a little faster. Thanks for the attention.

    Better open the catacombs as instance dungeons, even as party mode instance. This will help people gear better in order to access place like icelord and Keblim. The ancient adena are scarse and difficult to access.

  3. I confirmed also. I made a ticket and they asked me 1) to log off, 2) then they asked me to go to a safe town (my character was already in Aden. After long wait they sent me an email and said that they will refund in my account the 10.000 adena I spent to enter LoA while the entrance fee is 1000000 adena. Confusion of the highest order.image.png

    NCWest have zero customer service skills. Their promos are pre-existing promos translated from Korea. They don't innovate, create content, or adjust to the poor reality of the market and the server population. Servers can have five players left and they still won't make any adjustments.

    They do not care they care only for the money. Today had my 24th consecutive spellbook fail (22 2-star fails and 2 1-star fails). After the introduction of Giran Seals the first introduced spellbook crafting went to the trash can. I cannot understand how there is 25% in each try but after trying 24 times it is infuriating and also a fact that unless someone pays for the spellbooks you are going to learn any useful spell. The promotion with daily attendance will help f2p players but still the crafting is abyssal and it does not worth it.

  5. After the introduction of Giran Seals I have sent mail to NC regarding the rates of Spell Book Crafting with Aden Subjugation Crystals. Their answer was that they changed nothing but from the day of introduction of the Giran Seals until today I have 20 fails and 0 success to craft 18 2-star Spell Books and 2 1-star Spell books. Not a single success. It is because NC wants you to spend your Lcoins to Giran seals one pack can give you from 1 to 1000 Giran seals meaning that with that one Giran Seal may cost you from 200 Lcoin to 0.2 lcoins.

    I come here on behalf of the vast majority of players active on Lineage 2 Essence so that the administration can see what is happening with this version of Lineage 2.

    First point: (lagged classes) Orcs: Dominator, Doomcryer, Titans It is an absolute truth that these classes currently only exist for PVP, Olympics and PVE. The community would like to know why these classes are “so strong and with a huge difference compared to other classes? Why Doomcryer and Dominator have infinite MP? Why don't other mages get the same bonus? This is unfair to the other classes, you will hardly see any other mage being able to beat a Dominator or Doomcryer comparing with the same equipment and level...

    Why are Titans excelling so much? What else is happening today is seeing players changing their classes for them, there is no longer this “Play with a class and Race I like” because you probably won't be able to face the Titans or Dominator and Doomcryer... We want the nostalgia of playing with the Class we like, remember when we played other versions and our parties were full of Archer, Dagger and various mages? Well, that doesn't exist here and something needs to be done...

    Another thing I see, are the Archers, these are the most wronged classes in this version of Lineage 2 ruled by you, NCWest, these classes are only being used for one thing at the moment "Gather Adena in Farm Zones" take a good look at them , many love to play archer but it's totally out of the question, as they can't evolve into a battle compared to other classes as I said above...

    Second point: (Number of accounts opened by computer) Have you from the administration already created an account, leveled it up, added adenas and etc? I do not think so! It's totally pointless to allow 10 accounts open per computer, look what's happening, ALL areas are covered by “ALT” accounts (Adenas Farm Accounts) I'm not saying this is wrong, but allowing 10 accounts per computer generates a terrible feeling of not being able to level up and gather adenas sensibly, from the impression that the server is just full of it, it's something frustrating to have to share the EXP and Drop with 10 more AFK players in Auto-Hunting... Appreciate the account of a player who came on behalf of various CPs, Clan and Alliance Members to make this appeal to the administration. Remember, this game is made by players, the community needs to be heard and these things need to be analyzed…

     

    Greetings,

    JELTON S. SAMPAIO 🇧🇷

    Again people with Damage Dealers talk about their damage and measure who has the most. What about the other classes like tanks, buffers, crafters etc.

    Fact #1: The common buff system (meaning that the basic buffs are learned by all characters) destroyed classes like Hierophant. Hierophant became a broken hybrid of warrior and mystic classes but few people understandood this and never accepted to play this class due to its pve limitations. Moreover, the traditionally mass enhancers/buffers Dominators (Clan buffs), Doomcryers, Spectral Dancers and Sword Muses have locked most of their mass buffing skills until 76.

    Fact #2: For NC everthing is all about the damage. In every aspect of the game, the damage dealers excel against other classes. This is the main reason that the Aden servers and especially elcadia are dominated by Death Knights and Titans (the most broken classes of all). Some brief examples even in paid events:

    a) L2pass: In order to obtain a reward you need to kill a ton of monsters. All damage dealers would end the pass within some days while other classes like tanks and healers would struggle to gather the necessary  points due to their low damage. There was a slight hope that the system of killing monsters would change with farming xp points (similar to mission levels) but the current l2pass that came at the start of month crushed these hopes. Meaning that for NC Damage>Attendance.

    b) Individual bosses, Battle against Balok, Fight against Keber: The person with the highest damage will pick up the rewards (in the last two the person which will do the last hit gets the reward but again the person with higher damage has increased chances).

    Fact #3: The archers and nukers were already buffed on the last update if you feel wronged, overlooked or underestimated please look fact at number 4.

    Fact #4: NC destroyed with various poor decisions the tank classes making these classes inferior and useless against Damage Dealers to the point that they were replaced by the Death Knight, Titan, Sword Muse classes. The traditional tank classes such as Eva's Templars, Hell Knights, Phoenix Knights and Shillien Templars are nowhere to be seen. These classes together with the Healers where the most valuable classes in the previous chronicles. These classes were the gateway of a party or clan to raid bosses and areas with difficult monsters. Below are some changes that destroyed these classes:

    a) Introduction of skills that ignore defence, shield defence: The introduction of these skills made the tanks weak and useless. When all classes have 2-3 skills that ignore shield defence and 10-25% of the enemy defence, together with debuffs that decrease from 23 to 40% p. defence and m. defence we can understand why these classes are not popular as they receive damage despite their defence and do decreased damage vs another class character with the same gear. The only skills that tank classes have against these classes are the perfect shield skill and the Reduce crisis skill. (To check the skills press here and here).

    b) The elimination of the evasion reduction when equipping a shield: This changed the meta making it possible for damage dealers such as adventurers, Wind Riders and Ghost Hunters to equip a shield without any drawback. Moreover, as more classes were favoured by this change the prices of shields in the server.

    c) Death Knight a broken class inspired by the other tanks: Death Knights are nothing less than a caricature inspired of the normal knight classes but with broken skills. Some relation with the other classes:

    - Death Pull > Chain Strike: 3 sec cooldown with chance to disrupt when elevating vs  15 sec cooldown

    - Hell Fire > Sanctuary: 40% pdef and mdef mass reduction debuff + mass damage > 23% pdef reduction mass reduction debuff

    - Born to be Dead > Ultimate Defence: If dying from an attack: Reviving After Death is triggered. (Reviving After Death) Immunity for 3 sec. HP/ MP recovery unavailable. > Increased Defence can die from the damage.

    d) The skills of tanks were nerfed to the ground after the Overlord patch:

    - The deletion of Cubics, the removal of debuffs from the skills Judgement and Tribunal.

    - The decrease of reflects from the tanks. The "reflect master" class of Hell Knight does not resemble its previous glory.

    And other.

    Fact #5: The introduction of Hell Fire damage and resistance. Hellfire damage is the damage with the least resistances you can acquire through the game.

    Fact #6: The domination of both servers with third party applications that are used for simple tasks, such as the gathering of adena (autohunt) to olympiad pvps with ease from top players. NC is unable again to do nothing or just does not care to make a sufficient game-guard or other system to avoid bot softwares.

     

    TL;DR: Accept that DKs, Titans and Domis are broken, nerf them and check the other classes except for  the damage dealers that are not played anymore by people. Otherwise enjoy the DK, Titan server.

    (As English is not my mother tongue I apologize if you encounter vocabulary or grammatical mistakes in the text above).

    Kind regards,

    PS: Sorry I forgot what about the dwarf race that lost all its power which was the normal craft. Dwarves were the richest and better geared characters in the game. Nobody nowadays does normal craft. Also the active people playing dwarves are nearly zero.

    • Your game - Lineage II Aden
    • Your server name  -  Elcadia
    • Your memory - When we first started Lineage 2 C3 back at 2005 as we where 18 we did not had the knowledge in English we have now. I remember that we did not knew that in order to teleport back in town we had to use scroll of escape or to resurrect a team mate we had to use a scroll of resurrection. So we bought in a character two spell books : escape and resurrection and we were very unhappy that we spend our Adena on two spellbooks that when we double clicked did nothing 🤣😂. I really miss these days.

  7. Dear GMs,

    Thanks for the justified compensation. Please look into the issues below:

    - No Aden Subjugation Crystals were distributed. We lost these items on everyday basis and this is affecting the players mostly in Spell book crafting.

    - Random Disconnects in time zones and dungeons

    Kind regards,

    A true fact is that Elcadia is the most overlooked server by NCSoft.
    But what the "dominant clan" is doing is harassment. No player on the server 
    that is not from the clan in question is allowed to get close to the boss, 
    or it will take pk or war will be sent to your clan. Clans epidemic and epidemic2 (alliance)
    clearly dominate the server, so did NCSoft give them an event as a gift?
    Removing the event that only favors a clan or making it a safe zone would be good, wouldn't it? 
    Or, create an event where only they can't enter...
    
    

    Dear ElcadiaPVEPlayer
     

    Before I will write anything I want to state that I am not a member of any of the top 10 clans on the server and that I support none of them.

    Firstly, the area where the boss stands is a pvp area, end of discussion. Every clan that would have had the power would do the same and worse. It is a pvp server and a pvp game after all, and it is a raid boss like any other raid boss. I remember in older servers that I played that the clans would pvp for hours before slaying e.g. the ant Queen or another Raid boss.
    Secondly, I do understand that NC gave an event mission to everyone on the server "Defeat Flame Lord Blaze", according to it you just need to hunt the raid, not defeat it or do the last hit. According to L2 central a single auto attack is enough to receive the mission reward. Unfortunately, after a ticket to NC (resulted to no answer) and trial and error I concluded that in order to do the mission even if you get pkd you have to make sure you do the three steps below:
    1) Run at a distance that you can do an attack to the boss (before dying),
    2) Do at least one (1) attack on the boss,
    3) If you die DO NOT GO TO VILLAGE, if you stay dead until the boss is slain by anyone, the mission is GRANTED (I did it today and it worked).

    This is just a bad mechanism in granting the mission to a player and NC's fault. While a simple attack on the boss could grant the mission to you and your party (five people in total) they have chosen to let you there dead or alive to wait and see if you can complete the mission. But I guess this is NC and their support.

    I do believe that there are more serious issues (Andrenalin or other software infestation of the server is for me the most serious) but NC is just inefficient or just cares more for the big spenders than the casual players on the server.

    See you in game Ziegfried (unfortunately this name is one of the popular ones so I could not have it in this forum)
