  1. It does matter, and it matters a lot.
    All the skills with the "attribute" icon at bottom right corner will be affected.

    I.e Elemental storm & Elemental burst.
    These skills will attack with attribute based on your stance, if you dont have matching attribute on weapon you will attack without any attribute (very low damage).
    Some skills are different, such as Updraft Destruction for example will always attack with "Wind" attribute and it doesnt matter which attribute your weapon is.
    Same for Comet strike & quadruple elemental.

    Your main DPS is from Elemental storm and burst, so changing it would be pretty massive damage loss.

    Example DPS with test feoh:
    Wind weapon & Wind stance, elemental storm damage = 26k
    Wind weapon & dark stance, elemental storm damage = 17,4k

    50% damage difference!



    No wonder there are so many trash feohs around if theyre running with wrong weapon attribute 🤣

    Well, I have participated in all the Oriana events since the first one back in prehistory.

    and with 3 accounts I have never obtained anything ..... only coins

    Now you can get mad because nothing comes out

    Or suppose this is a game where the winner is the one who connects with the most accounts and if you only connect with 2 or 3 accounts, don't get frustrated, exchange the coins for roses and go hunting for a while. with free roses

    it all depends on the philosophy you apply when sitting in front of this game


    I've joined every single one of these events over the past 12 years, I always have 2-5 characters online so the events have always with 2-5 characters online.
    Like you, never won a single item in these type of events.
    But like you say, no point getting frustrated and mad.

     

    If throughout the event theres 8 winners a day over course of 21 days, thats 168 winners total
    if there's 3000 characters online for each draw (rough estimate), rough math but decently close enough - theres a 5% chance of me winning a single time in that event.
    So even if I join this event 20 times with the same rates, theres a very high chance of me not receiving a single item.

    When someone win something a % of people get exited and shout.
    In game I expect that if someone get one of those prise, they would shout, link the item on global chat, link on ally channel, clan channel etc.
    But nothing.  No single shout.
    It`s 24 prizes, one prize per hour  and we can absolutely see no one telling that won.
    Am I missing something ?


    Maybe you need to join a different clan or alliance?
    If I won a +6 leviathan set with a total value of 7b adena, you sure as hell will not see me link it all excited in world chat when i find it randomly after 10 hours of coming back to the PC - why would I?
    But I might make a brief comment in clan chat or something like that.

    Also, its 24 prizes a day with 5x draws each, but not every draw results in a win so there could be 5 winners in a day, sometimes 15.

    I did that. Changed the skills I was able to change from Power to Wild/Savagery.

    Then you dont have to complain, 520 crit rate with wild/savagery should be critting just about 100% of the time in PVE.
    if you're complaining about low dmg however, thats a diff topic.

    I have reviewed everything... my AP tree, changed 1 SA on my weap and 2 accesories. WTH am I missing?? I'm living on a limited income and can't afford to keep changing stuff plus you can't find needed items. I'm getting too old for this.

    Swap your skills from power to wild/savagery, simple as that.

    8% less power, but you'll go from ~50% crit rate up to just about 100%.
    For PVE, no need to go more than ~550 crit rate if you use +20 wild/savagery.

    So, back to hard pills to swallow, I simply don't understand the frustration that they deny to inform about restorations now...

     

    Exactly this!
    The AUDACITY people have to complain about the simple fact that they just wont inform us BEFOREHAND anymore that they will 100% guaranteed restore an item you fail to enchant, is insane!

  6. Thank god for this change, this restoration system service was the dumbest thing they've ever provided.
    The system is for sure not automated so each time someone asks "is this item eligible for restore?" it puts a lot of work on the support, so they've just stopped giving that part of the service, and thank god for that as it will prevent the abuse we've been seeing with the restoration system

  7. Hello sir
    The game does not differentiate between /sit or /stand, they are the exact same command.

    So what happens is, you're being attacked by a monster while sitting - this makes your character stand up, so when you try to "/stand" in the macro, it sits you back down.
     

     

    one way to fix this, would be to simply make the macro like this;

     

    /target x

    /assist

    /useskill x

    /sit

    /delay 6

    /target x

    /assist

    /useskill x

    /stand

    That way, if you do get hit by a monster after sitting down, it will still rotate your "assist damage", and proceed to sit down afterwards.


    Probably better ways to go about the macro though.
    Have a good one
     

  8. All of the rules of clan crest is in the tab where you add/upload clan crest, you must be missing something - the bmp has to be 256bit and the appropriate size.
    PM me your discord and I can help a bit more if needed.

    well that and there is another way to force start a clan war but it is somewhat rare nowadays. In Game Settings, there is an option for the "target next", most put mobs/pve (cant remember the exact description) but if you have selected both pve/pvp then if a flagged player comes in your aoe group, flagged and has sent a war, then dies 5 times in a row, the war starts.

    However I am not sure if this is still possible.

     

    Taunt, you will automatically hit people who is flagged yes

    i would say it falls under the "kill them 5 times" category 😛

    So  our clan is "at war", and I'm not sure how that happened.

    So I've been told the way a clan war starts is a clan sends a war invite, than we have to kill five of them. Is this correct? And is there any other way a clan "war" could happen? I've read that clan war system had been updated somewhat recently.

    Either you accept the clan war, or you kill them 5 times

  11. I don't see any forum thread about this issue specifically other than a few posts here and there.
    This needs more attention as this is a massive issue not only for new players but also old players that have not advanced far enough yet.

    The scaling of these dailies are MASSIVE since the patch, we're talking 20 times or higher more difficult than before the patch that happened a few weeks ago.


    A high geared character that was able to do Baylor in 10 seconds before can not even touch the raid boss now.
    For reference, a character that needed 10 seconds to kill both Baylor's, now after 5 minutes of constant hitting - barely get one of them down to 75% of its total HP.

    This is the case for all of the 105 instances!
     

    Something went wrong with the patch, and you guys need to look into this.

    And if this was somehow intended, you need to revert whatever change was done - it does not work for our region.

    if you are playing for 20 years and are not on the top 50-100 of the server which are able to farm 50b in ToI, 15 in Atelia and 15-20 per week on IoS then you clearly have been doing something wrong.

    This is not a personal attack against you cuz people take everything too perosnal, rather a wake up call that if you played for that much you kinda ought to have reached at a point that you are now self sufficient and able to purchase whatever you want.

    With the above statementm I could argue that he purchased the Runestones when they were cheaper or put up a buystore for said runestones, this is also known as playing the market since Runestones/giant codexes are a necessity around Red Libra, it is only logical that this might be a goo investment, supply and demand, everyone knows that for those 2 items prices go up 2x during red libra, so there is no reason not to plan ahead and buy your runestones in times were prices are low, i.e a couple of months after red libra ends, to prepare for the next.

    Part of the game is figuring out stuff, patterns in events, market prices, its all part of the game which if you pay close attention, then you will either a) always be prepared, b) have enough adena that you do not care how much it costs.

    ill give you a small example, back in january there was the event that dropped the cablena? pots/ites w.e. I cant really remember, those were like 2m a piece and they dropped like candy, at the time I could farm with my main and my mentees, instead of using them for pots which would not make such difference, i sold them, around 1200 per day, at 2.5m each, that was roughly 3b a day. (then price dropped to 2.2, 2.1 and 1.7 towards the end)

    Why am I tellin you this? This is what many would call, "accessing the situation" so do I use these pots to get 120% more XP or get 3b a day ( at least for me), others may have had different amounts and make an upgrade? after a certain point that 30b do not buy you anything but that is still good to have for lets say, play the market and turn the 30b into 60 or 100 in a couple of months?

     

    Be real, you couldve dropped 10k USD 5 years ago and be considered garbage by todays standard by 1k USD toons.

    You take a break in the wrong event, you miss an event cause of vacation or whatever it may be - you cant time those things.
    What you said just simply isnt true

  13. Rune > clan raids
    Goldberg
    Mary Reed
    Tauti
    These 3 will probably net you ~20 average rune stones per week
    TOI is probably ~5 if you have drop runes active

    This of course requires you to be a solo player, or someone who has solo access to a high level clan.

    For free/lowered gear characters, you got all of the old instances to farm rune stones:
    Tavern, Istina (both normal and epic), Ekimus, Balok.

    The results of the posters math were posted WITH equations using probability. You haven't done anything except put them down with false claims of "this isnt how it works" but you just say "blah" and the poster gives math, equations that all add up.

    This is how probability works, if you aren't familiar with it, do some reading, go take a class, but what you shouldn't do is push a falsehoods on forums trying to discredit someone that obviously knows far more about math and probability that you seem to. Keep it to the real issue, which is rates not being as advertised.   

     

    "this is how probability works" and then "If we extend this out beyond 20 to say 100, there is only a %0.9941 chance of failure EACH TIME after 100."

    This guy seriously did 0.95^100 = 0.0059
    Then 1-0.0059 =
    0,9941

     

    No, you just calculated the chance to fail/succeed 100 in a row.
    you didnt calculate the % on everything past 100.

    I'm really digging what A22H*() people are in forums. If I was NC Soft west I would LOVE this. People turn on each other just to be trolls and terrible to other people, all the while NC Soft sits backs and laughs while people tear other people down. It works the same way in discord... this is the l2 Playerbase, once upon a time it was actually not a horrible place to be .. now? Well... just read a few posts and watch everyone be so nice to one another....

    It's doesn't change the chance turbo. Learn math and probability. The PROBABILITY if you have a 5% chance, to fail repeatedly is what decreases. If you have a 5% chance, and fail 100 times in a row, then every subsequent chance after that 100th failure, should be an extremely high chance to succeed. 

    If there is a 5% chance it will happen on one try, then the chance it won’t happen is 95%, which is a probability of 0.95.

    If you intend to try two times, then the probability it won’t happen on either try is 0.95x0.95 = 0.9025 or 90.25%

    This means the chance that it will happen on one or the other (or both!) of those tries is 9.75%

    If you intend to try 3 times, then the probability it won’t happen on any of the three tries will be 0.95x0.95x0.95 = 0.85737, for a chance of 86% So that the chance it does happen on one or more of those three is 14%

    You see the pattern?

    The probability of something happening at least once in n tries, then, is going to be p=1–(0.95)np=1–(0.95)n

    The percentage chance is just 100p.

    What you want to know is what n you need to get you a particular p. You can do the algebra, but it is actually easier just to use the above formula on a computer and use trial and error.

    Since 5% is 1 in 20, there is a tendency to say that you need to try 20 times to get one result. This is a mistake.

    The chance of getting at at least one result in 20 tries would be 64% … so you’d only get that roughly two-3rds of the time. That’s good enough for gambling but it is hardly certain.

    The number of tries needed for 90% is 45 … in fact, you’d “expect” a result 2–3 times in 45 goes.

    To be almost certain, at 99%, you need to set out to have 90 tries! 

    This is called math.. it's a thing, to be more specific it's called probability, so before you go out and try to "correct someone" take a breath, stop being an l2 troll, and concentrate on the reality. NC Soft wests rates are NOT AS ADVERTISED. The MATH... this thing I just showed, proves it logically and with real numbers and real probability. Not QQ L2 trolling of telling someone they are wrong. Being a Troll is what they count on because it creates friction and allows trolls to attempt to discredit real issues so NC Soft doesn't have to answer to them. 


    Bro, i've already told you that the chance of not succeeding 150 attempts is ~0.05% - that means what happened to you is 0.05% chance.
    Its highly unlikely to have such bad luck, but its still ~1/2000 chance to happen.
    Whats so hard to understand?
    You say its "near impossible" "once every few million years" etc etc.
    Then you come here, and try to give false information to people and lie about the rates.
    Your math is wrong - so you're wrong, no one is trolling?

    "If you have a 5% chance, and fail 100 times in a row, then every subsequent chance after that 100th failure, should be an extremely high chance to succeed. "
    No, it just means you had insane amount of bad luck. the next click is still a 5% click.

     

     

    You literally do this math here - "The chance of getting at at least one result in 20 tries would be 64% " etc.
    So do the same math until 150 attempts. whats your result?

    "If we extend this out beyond 20 to say 100, there is only a %0.9941 chance of failure EACH TIME after 100. "
    What the heck?

  17. 20 hours ago, gabby said:

    PROBABILITY works EXACTLY like that. Do not confuse probability and Percentage. This is math, if you doubt it, go talk to someone that actually does probability and statistics. In Typical Lineage 2 Fashion, you are all caught up on trying to "Prove someone wrong" rather than what the poster is trying to tell you. The Rates aren't accurate as advertised. 

    It is a near impossibility, to fail a 5% chance 150 times in a row.... PERIOD. And for those that say "well it IS possible" Yes, for one character once in a blue moon over millions of attempts of years, yes.. it IS possible. What isn't possible is this kind of thing happening ALL the time to multiple people in the game, WHICH IT DOES. 

    So try getting your collective heads out of your butts, and put the effort into getting NC Soft to either Post ACCURATE rates, or have them explain what is really going on. Because as it stands, This is unfair, inaccurate and we as players are getting taken. 

     

     

    How about you share your math and explain how every click after 100 attempts is magically turned from 5% to 99.5%?

    99.95% is the chance to NOT succeed if clicking 150 times in a row.
    Put in perspective, thats 1:2000 chance of happening. that is nothing. it will happen frequently. and the people it happens to will scream bloody murder.
    Near impossibility? Millions of years? bro, its literally a 1:2000 chance. get real.

    That is not unheard of, you had a stroke of bad luck. it happens.
    Winning the jackpot in eurojackpot is 1:59325279
    Do you even comprehend the difference here?


    I dare 10 people to record themselves clicking 6>7, and we'll see how many clicks it takes on average :)

    Anyone want to bet against that it'll be 5% on average?


    I still think gambling events suck goat nutsacks BTW.
