Lineage 2 player Rown First and Last Post
Dear fellow players. For most of us this game has been a part of our lives which most of us grew up playing this game.
For me these are some of the reasons I feel the game has let us down1) Party group is dead, most adena and xp areas are solo . Supports have rerolled to dmg dealers as they can not farm as efficient as dds . Solo instances do not help support with any way like a boosts buff and it's almost impossible for them to time the solo instances no matter the gear .
2) L2 store promotions with exclusive items only from store (not obtainable in game)
3) Queues for prestige subscribers
4) No new actual content just old areas become new
5) Higher difficulty mobs same drops
6) More items for damage, but no items for defense (any defensive items are very expensive)
7) Lack of competitive aspects
-
PvP - pve field non existent
-
My teleport system that was implemented is wrong and with it areas lost their beauty and value , lately ppl got banned using this in game feature . There is nothing and nobody from the NC west crew to specify what areas are legal since being able to use the teleport system seems to be a bannable offence which can get you banned depend on the mood and personal knowledge of the GM who will look into it *.
-
Siege experience for low lvl clans can be brutal to a point that , as a low geared clan will never have the chance to even take part in a siege . The new shilen SA implemented to game only for those who can spend $ on l2 store promotion can secure any castle , since no game mechanic or skill can prevent you from avoiding the 3-5 sec paralysis no matter of the evasion or immunity you have .
-
Dragons are not a pvp area so there is basically no fight for them but it's a click war that means the CC to click faster the option i want to enter will be ported inside .
-
Clan wars - clans no matter of there lvl who have 14 players or less will not open the war status . Penalty for leaving a clan is only 24 h . Basically no pros for loyal members who stay in one clan . Game favors the cowards in this case .
-
Olympiad point feed fest. Olympiad is not about how skilled you are but about who will get the most feeds . High point players (heroes) have the same chances of signing, playing a match against the lowest tier player as they have against the highest tier player . This just doesn't make sense to competitive players .
-
Swords pick up and creation of cursed weapons . The pvp area where the event takes place is very limited for the number of players participating . The chance for somebody to pick up the sword is same for everyone on the server witch is good but with the teleport system implemented to the game makes it impossible to reach it after it have been picked up since the my teleport options have no cast time witch makes it impossible for any attack to land on the sword owner since attacks have cast time and that having the chance to even attempt to attack it means you were in front of the player picking it up . The chests are very easy to break and very hard to defend so on a competitive server were the chest brakes every 3-4 min . The winner comes the players who did a pick up in the last 3-4 minutes of events end .
11) The abuse of one time restoration item . Weapon or armors enchanted can be changed at red Libra event to another weapon/ armor tipe as this resets the items ID and that way they can be restored infinite times .
12) Instance time zones – Certain players could farm Isle of Souls for 11 hours a day, rather than the allowed 6 hours. This was done day in day out, and not by mistake. I am aware that only players within Naia could do this, and there were some other variables that came into play with regards to who could do this. So, this was not available for everyone. No action was ever taken even after who knows the quantity of adena that was added to the market.
Ok let me answer some of the issues you presented:
1. Party for afk xp is dead but for dailies its very much alive get to 105 and you see how each class is needed and in what situations so please rethink that answer. Solo instances stink so does this event even for DDs.
2. Since this game has gone f2p that has always been the case and is the case for every f2p game don't like play a subscription game.
3. Ques for presitage - how is the server suppose to know what toon has that before you login you only get it on one toon per account not all 7 so ?
4. There is new content but they can revive some of the older areas but just keeping the same mobs just increasing their level and difficulty in programming its a rather easy change honestly.
5. Drops i agree need to change. No one crafts anymore because of ether not being tradeable so its hard to farm it to a level to try multiple crafts and still fail. If you want to keep ether make everything 100% craft.
6. Level difference makes the biggest difference in damage and defense more than gear honestly a 105 with +16 bow will be killed in 2 hits from 110 with a +5 bow.
7. I can post a picture where i soloed an undefended castle and my clan fought against an equal level clan for almost 2 hours for possession until heroes who didnt need the castle showed up to hand it over an alt clan. Now if the other clan leader was smart he would just went after the alt clan leader and ignore the high level toons but alas he wasnt so they lost the castle. It can be competitive but you have to be smart and castle sieges actually involve tactics, politics, and not just brute force.
11. No abuse its a gamble it up to their discretion if they undo it for you, so you want to gamble go ahead.
12. Time zones were voted on.... maybe they need to revote again when they did it last time their was a lot of South Americans playing so that is how Chornos got its time zone i know.

dont think so , its simple math yul skills has 40k++ power added to their p.atk
e.x feohs have 300-500 power to their matk (but they got more m.atk)
telling this every item added to the yul will simply give them more power.
accordingly the yul class on its embryonal stage (without items) has more built in firepower how hard is that to understand.
thanks
Wish it was that simple. Magic Skills and Physical Skills has very different damage forumulas so 100 power on a nuke is not the same as 100 power on a physical skill. Also there is skills that may look physical but are actually magical which further compounds this issue lol
-
In theory you with be right death but as much as archer spam skills patk is not as relevant as use to be. And the next update makes it all moot point because those skills will be gone and with the shortage of R crystals its better just to get the quiver and invest in other items.

I completely understand game theory and ncsoft broke that when they let people multibox. 1 every archer has a ISS buff slave because they are useless without buffs its a class that needs to stack buffs to be efficent but since it fairly simple now to box an iss almost everyone I know has a decent level buff slave mine is only 50% behind me in level gear isn't as great but its not exalted gear either.
The buffs they added for the most part made healers not needed in run of the mill xp. I can xp without a healer because vamp rage (which as much as I like should not apply to range toons) without vamp rage archers would either need a tank to hold agro off them or a healer constantly healing them. When i got to higher xp areas I keep a healer in party just in case of lag etc where I could die as archers are not known for high hp and pdef.
Since awakening happened in GoD the ideal party thing disappeared. In areas where mobs are resistant to arrows that can be overcome now for top gear. However this is a little point I would like to make Yuls were not the preferred class until about 2 - 3 years ago it was nukers. Archers has so many restrictions on them and where they could hunt some had daggers to still xp with a party because of so many arrow resistant mobs.
Basic game theory breaks a RPG down into 4 - 5 classes. 1 Tank (standard in all RPGs no explanation) 2 Healer (pretty standard) 3 melee/range rouge (Our dagger/archer without many trap or chest skills anymore we actually use to have them) 4 range nuker (standard to ours) 5 melee high hp DD ie titans, duelist, dreadnaughts.
Many variations in this game but that is the usual standard in original RPG. However archers are not even have skills like rouges should have IE traps, open chests, hide in shadows (30 seconds come on with 5 minute reload which mind is only a semi recent addition). Before afk macros were allowed you had to kite mobs you were killing which is a way an archer should hunt. It this is a little better for the theory part?
-
No one will pay for a clan lower than 11. I was offered a lot for mine at one point not sure what the market is now since is close to impossible to get 11 and without heros 12 is a dream few have gotten and forget 13 and 14
-
And as of next update that skill is removed so don't think too much about it.

Do some testing on your own instead of looking at what the TOP players are. There are many factors in why they are top, not just what current meta is. Any toon with equal gear and level doesnt compare to what archers are capable of. also those 3 classes you listed, are single target. archer does just as much damage aoe. Plus i never mentioned damage, i said they out xp. go troll elsewhere.
MrMind can out xp any archer I promise you that.
Also aoe becomes less efficient as you level. As you can not pull multiple groups of mobs as they are restricted in more high level zones to their area of spawn. If your talking under 105 yes Archers are the most efficient class to level but many high level instances are not aoe they are more focus fire/single target. In the highest level archer in my ally single target kills at 112 because its more efficient. I been playing this game 16 years no clue how long your playing it but its obvious you do not fully understand game mechanics.
In addition why there are more Yul and mostly ghost sentinels is its easy to xp with them click and shoot macros are easy does take much to understand them. I have beaten higher level archers with better gear in the olympiad because they do not fully understand how to truly play an archer. Look up evi and maestro 1/3 kill skills and then you understand why they level faster in areas they shouldn't be then equal level archers.

When will you make an event with XP buffs,potions,transforms etc etc for all the players? Not just the visa ones ...
What about also this joke 80k exalted ? 160k ? 40k? Yeah ,you made BS an active zone, everywhere archers - mages..Someone has to spend 1 year to finish all the parts of exalted.. nolifing on computer or just leave the pc open 1 year and bye bye. Where is the fun of playing ?
Nobody plays erthia mage . Summoners dissapear. Only some specific bots staying out of Kartia NPC! What about give some love to all of classes ?If i see another class except archer-mage, he is gonna be geared with red shine weapons and heavy wallet.. Give some love to Lineage back ?
I am a summoner but of course nobody wants me in xp parties or coal mines! Also think something about Rune Stones. Its ridiculous i have to pay to get stone to use my SKILLS! There are tons of other boostfull things that are worth donating, not bleeping stones for simple S K I L L S . I want to --->play <--- not open wallet to PLAY. I guess nobody cares for my opinion from NC but think of it please.
A player..........
What game you playing? Most can go from 1 - 103 and exalted 3 status in 2 weeks. 4+5 take a little time but are more level based. 110 well there is only 200 or so people that level on the server so exalted 6 is hard.
So with the exception of exalted 6 you should be 107 and exalted 5 if you played more than you type in no more than 3 months.
-
I have no clue what game your playing but Evis, maestros, and daggers way out damage archers unless archers are in TIP TOP gear and have super enchants on skills.
Archers only become broken if you break your Amex card. I am very well geared but an evi with exalted gear same level as me xp and kills a lot quicker than I ever could. Did you look with the top 150 people are on a server?
Top 10 on Chronos are 2 Evis (1 being 115 top of the server) 2 Nukers 2 Daggers 2 archers 1 tank 1 duelist.
Top 150 is divided pretty much the same with a healer or iss here and there. SO let me say learn the game better before you speak.

Don't need to extend the event just make one minor change during maintenance.
Make nightmare fragments tradeable. Problem solved, creates a market for free event items for poor l2 players and allows people with alts to farm the event to make at least one bracelet for their main.

Our healer is from Egypt and has no issues on Chronos.
-
Event is DOA So i tried with all classes my archer did the best with a Bloody weapon but just missed C. Evi and Maestros do best overall but unless your outlevel the rim by a lot or have super gear you wont get anything from this event.
Major Fail NCSoft. So everyone log get your free 1/2 trillion xp for 10 minutes and move on.
PS Nightmare fragments are untradeable bad play again by NCSoft.

You cannot get anything at 105 FYI mobs are too hard to kill
-
Here is my issue I just tried it on a 104 with top exalted gear and i couldn't even hardly damage 1 mob as a dagger. They are white so no damage reduction those mobs are mini raids bosses with a solo instance no way to self heal this needs to be readjusted.
-
Ok then that makes a little more sense then lol Thanks for clarification Juji
-
LoL they got you.... weak event honestly. At least Euro servers got a letter event that was more fair than this. How does a healer do this event? Tank? Most Iss?
105+ and a Rim for 115+ when only person is 115 on Chornus not sure about Naia.
-
Not for nothing but why have 115+ Rim when there is only one person who is 115 in on these servers? lol
-
Yes and she is still there.
Sad i ran through a lot of places and you cant even access them anymore. Forgotten Temple is well forgotten just a stairway to a locked door now. Ant's Nest does not even exist no more even though its still on map. Devil Isle is there but not a mob anywhere in it.

Not true. I have never done anything against game rules created a new account on different pc leveled it up got to to level 97 in one day with mentor buffs and vit rune going and got banned for suspicious activity. No email sent to my email why and I couldn't appeal the ban from that account had to submit a support on my main account to get that account reopened. It was a mistake and I was just banned in a mass ban of the bloody swampland of new toons. Nice huh?

Several places. Spoilers spoil crystal of spoil which can be traded. They do drop from party instance boxes you get for completing the instance or the quest associated with the instance.
Then there are people who have truck loads of life stones who smartly combined and upgraded them before the old ones were deleted and not to crash the market they only put a few for sale at a time 5 - 10 a batch usually. It is actually only middle class non-super nc coin buying way to make a honest living besides whats left of fishing.
Some of prices on gear are horrendous but it is what its is.
