  1. Hello Everyone,

    It is with much sadness that I share that today, after 10 ½ years, I am leaving NCSOFT in pursuit of a new adventure outside of the gaming industry.

    This was truly a difficult decision to make – it’s not easy to leave great co-workers, an amazing game and a truly devoted community of players. We have been through a lot together, and I would not have changed any of my time spent working on LIneage II for the world. I will cherish all the amazing memories I’ve made since joining the product back in 2011 and will miss all of the Anniversary events, lab requests, and player interactions I’ve had in-game, on the forums, and in Discord.

    Please know that Lineage II will be left in great hands. Hermes, who you might have seen helping buff players during the 18th Anniversary GM Buff Event, will be taking over for me next week. He is not only a quick learner but a “jack of all trades” Producer with many years of experience working in MMORPGs and I am confident that he will do right by all of you.

    Thank you again to all the Lineage II players who have supported me and this community over the years! I will miss all of you forever!

    Best Regards, 
    Juji

    I'll repeat, I believe you didn't understand me:

    There are no monsters in Seal of Shilen.

    Any prevision? Any idea of the error?

    Seal of Shilen, no mobs. 0 monsters.

     

    :/

     

    didn't test before?

    It is intended for there to be 0 monsters in Seal of Shilen since the new Chaos raid bosses were added to this spot.

     

  3. Hello All,

    As we mentioned a few weeks ago, the Dev team will be preparing new content to add to the Classic Server throughout the next few months. We are excited to announce that 4 new raid bosses will be added to the game starting with the maintenance tomorrow. Please find the details below:

    Raid Boss Details

    -          4 types of Raid Bosses can be spawned at the Seal of Shilen Zone in Aden Territory, next to Aden’s Cemetery.

    -          4 Raid Boss Icons will be permanently added, each representing one of the new Raid Bosses.

    -          Each Boss has a 25% chance of spawning, and only one boss can spawn at a time.

    -          Raid Bosses will spawn daily at 20:00 server time.

    -          Boss difficulty is set to level 90.

    -          Recommended character level is 85+.

    -          Player who inflicts the last hit (kill hit) will receive (1x) Advanced Stable Scroll: Enchant Weapon (S-grade).

    -          Existing monsters from the area, including Palibati Queen Themis, will be relocated to a nearby location.

    Hi, i just noticed the cursed swords dropped on chronos 22min ago, before mainteance was dropping 1.22h ago.

    Can u check if its bugged or smth?

    Why did the blood sword just drop when it should have been over an hour ago?

    There is no notice of the change in this announcement.

    The Cursed Swords schedule change was planned for next week, but went out unintended with the maintenance yesterday. Apologies for the inconvenience!

    New Cursed Sword start times are below:

    • Chronos Server - 20:00 UTC
    • Naia Server - 17:00 UTC

    @Juji@Arctic Are you aware of the fact that the swords did not drop at their normal time today? nothing was mentioned about any changes to swords, so I'm guessing this was unintentional.

    Apologies for the inconvenience! The previous start time for Cursed Swords after daylight saving time started in March was not well received, so we requested for the Dev team to change it. The Cursed Swords schedule change was planned for next week, but went out unintended with the maintenance yesterday.

    New Cursed Sword start times are below:

    • Chronos Server - 20:00 UTC
    • Naia Server - 17:00 UTC

    Death Knights don't have two-handed sword masteries. Nor do any death knight skills mention a requirement for two handed swords. Also 3 of the 4 skills you listed are I assume mistranslated? We have Rage of Valakas (not Wrath),  Stability of Valakas (not Sturdiness). No clue what Spirit Altar refers to. Presence of Mind exists.

    It was mistranslated and yes those are the correct skills you mentioned including Presence of Mind.

    DK ninja nerf? Since there is no such problem at all :D DK is supposed to use 1h swords from the get-go.. 

    What are these two-handed only skills of DK? Could you list?

    Skill animations were ignored if your DK used a 2h weapon. Edited the note for clarity:

    • Fixed an issue that allowed Death Knights to ignore skill animations by equipping two-handed weapons.

    I am confused about the ancient adena change.

     

    here are the previous data:

    Daily hunting V: 25 AA

    Continuous training: 100 AA

    Balok: 100 AA

    Goddard exploration: 50 AA

    Trancedence: 50 AA

    Orc Fortress advanced: 25 AA

     

    Total: 350 AA.

    Adding phantasm weekly +100, meaning 2550 AA weekly

     

    Now with the change:

    Daily hunting iv: 20 AA

    Daily hunting v: 30 AA

    Orc Fortress advanced: 50 AA

    Trancedence: 50 AA

    Balok: 50 AA

    Goddard: 100 AA

    Subjugation: 20 AA

    Frintezza: 20 AA (which I AM NOT going to count because not a single clan does it, only 1 alliance did it once [from my knowledge] in the WHOLE lifespan of the server and it took several fails to do so).

     

    Total: 320 AA.

    adding phantasm weekly +100 and garden +100 meaning 2440 AA weekly.

     

    How is this an improvement? Even adding frintezza to the list its still a nerf compared to what we got & the added time to kill 1000 mobs in garden.

    The daily missions have been re-organized (still 350 AA daily) and they have also added it to a few weekly missions. 

  13. Hello All,

    The development team took a few suggestions from the hunting zone feedback thread that was posted three weeks ago and made some adjustments to a few hunting zones. We will have additional changes announced in the near future for the Aden server.

    The following hunting zone changes will be applied on 4/27/2022:

    1. We have made several improvements to the Alligator Island time-limited hunting zone

  14. Hello All,

    The development team took your suggestions from the hunting zone feedback thread we posted three weeks ago and made multiple adjustments to hunting zones to help address some of the concerns that were discussed in the thread. We could not address every single issue within the short timeframe, but we will have additional changes in the near future.

    1. The respawn speed of monsters in hunting zones from Lv. 55 - 75 has been referred to as extremely slow and inconvenient. Therefore, the respawn time has been shortened so characters can quickly level up to 76 at a faster pace:

    Hunting Zone

    Current Spawn Time (Normal/Random)

    New Spawn Time (Normal/Random)

    Plains of Glory (Lv. 60-66)

    20 Seconds/30 Seconds

    15 Seconds/20 Seconds

    Excludes Elite Monster spawns

    War-Torn Plains (Lv. 67-72)

    21 Seconds/12 Seconds

    16 Seconds/8 Seconds

    Excludes Elite Monster spawns

    Silent Valley (Lv. 72-75)

    60 Seconds/15 Seconds

    40 Seconds/15 Seconds

    2. We received feedback regarding the Beginning of Adventure quest for Lv. 21-25 and progress being too choppy throughout the quest line. We have added a major buff to the Bella Gatekeeper NPC in Gludio (Click on "Quest"), but have also increased the total number of kills for the quest from 15 to 300.

    Buff Name

    Buff Effects

    Bella's Blessing

    XP/SP +200% and PVE Damage +15% for 60 minutes.

    3. We received feedback regarding the progression speed in Elemental Hunting Zones being slow and have adjusted monsters in solo areas throughout all 4 hunting zones:

    Hunting Zone (Lv. 76~80)

    Monster Stat Changes

    Forge of the Gods

    Max HP -10%
    P. Atk./M. Atk. -10%
    P. Def./M. Def. -10%

    Wall of Argos

    Wind Plateau

    Garden of Eva

    4. The Dev team would like to address the concerns regarding promotional item drops and Soulshot Consumption by introducing a new Talking Island Treasure Chest as a new drop item in all Lv. 55 and higher hunting zones.

    The Talking Island Treasure Chest can be acquired up to 10 times daily and the restriction resets at 6:30 AM server time.

    You will be able to obtain one of the following items from the chest:

    Item Name

    8000 L2 Coins

    1000 L2 Coins

    Weapon Supply Box (A-grade)

    Armor Supply Box (A-grade)

    Feather of Blessing

    Chef's Fish Stew - Victory

    Dragon's Miracle Potion

    (Note: This buff is overwritten by Dragon's Special Elixir Lv. 2/3)

    Golden Fruit Buff Lv. 3

    Life Control Tower's Scroll of Blessing

    Victory Coin

    XP Boost Scroll

    Shining Scroll of Mood Melody

    Special HP Potion

    Scroll: Enchant Stats

    Sweet Grace Cookie

    Soulshot Ticket

  15. Hello Everyone,

    The development team has taken suggestions from the hunting zone feedback thread we posted three weeks ago and have made several adjustments to hunting zones to improve hunting efficiency for Level 105-110 characters. We will have more changes announced in the near future from the Development team.

    1. Reduced the stats of monsters in the Ivory Tower Crater and Silent Valley solo hunting zones to shorten monster kill time, while increasing survival rate:

    Hunting Zone

    Monster Name

    Monster Stat Changes

    Ivory Tower Crater

    Stone Gargoyle

    Max HP -10%
    Atk. Spd. -20%
    P. Atk./M. Atk. -30%
    P.Def./M. Def. -20%

    Stone Golem

    Monster Eye

    Gargoyle Hunter

    Steel Golem

    Silent Valley

    Silence Witch

    Silence Preacle

    Silence Warrior

    Silence Slave

    2. Reduced the stats of monsters in the Neutral Zone party hunting zone to shorten monster kill time, increase survival rate, and increase the XP/SP rate.

    Hunting Zone

    Monster Name

    Monster Stat Changes

    Neutral Zone (Party)

    Tal Mahum Magus

    P. Atk./M. Atk. -30%
    P.Def./M. Def. -50%
    XP/SP Gain +10%

    Tal Mahum Legionnaire

    Tal Mahum Infantry

    Tal Mahum Lieutenant

     Increased the party hunting XP bonus in the Neutral Zone hunting zone to be the same as the Varka and Ketra hunting zones: 

    • 2 in a party = x2 -> x2.57
    • 3 in a party = x3 -> x3.58 
    • 4 in a party = x4 -> x5.14 
    • 5 in a party = x5 -> x8.25 
    • 6 in a party = x6 -> x9.9
    • 7 in a party = x7 -> x11.55

    There is no way to acquire these coupons as they were for an older version of an Attendance Stamp type event that ran in Korea last year. The items for that event were accidentally left in the multisell exchange and does not function since that event is not in use.

    having same issue, why 0 response here? @Juji

    Apologies, it was an issue a few months ago that we resolved with a script to replace the old version that was not working with the NPC with the new version. The old stone was reintroduced again this month and we will have to request for another script to replace the stone.

    The code can only be applied once per account. Please select the correct server and character, so the items can be delivered via the Dimensional Merchant.
