Season 3 Pass Breakdown. Right now 72 NC Coins = 950 million adena at the current market price. Premium pass is 1400 NC Coins or 18.5 billion. Just breaking down the premium price based on current rates: Forgotten Spellbooks 900 million each - 5.7 Billion Sayha Talisman Boxes 400 mill each = 1.6 Billion Crystal of Determination 70 mil each = 700 mill Crystal of Protection 35 mil each = 350 mill Dye Crystals 200 mil each = 1.2 Billion Artifact Crystal 1 billion each = 8 Billion Armor Augments 75 mil each = 750 million HG Brooch Augments 7.5 billion each = 37.5 Billion Gem Energy 1.5 Billion each = 12 Billion Sayha Energy 3.5 Billiion each = 14 Billion Rune Stones 300 mil each = 3 Billion Kara Talisman and Heavens Talisman = Price? Temp items Soulshot tickets Normaly 20 NC coins for 100 so 20 Pass ones = 10 NC Coins tickets = 200 NC Coins = 2.6 billion So Price of L2 Season 3 = 18.5 Billion Sale value of items = 87.4 Billion + Kara and Heaven Talisman lots of pots and 37 hours of Vit maintenance. Ruling = L2 Pass Season 3 = Good investment and value for the cost.

If get some free time I in my busy season right now lol

Aden with golden balls @Hermesspotted logged in Hunter village too

Ah young padawan you do not read. You can get an extra 14 dice a week by doing Imperial Tomb every day

Rewards look somewhat updated though which is nice. Not just simple freya roses for the dice game that is nice. L2 Pass people are missing the big part.... THE FREE VERSION GIVES YOU THE HEAVEN TALISMAN so you do not need spend a dime to get a temp heaven talisman i see that as a big thing. My problem is the paid one only gives 10 rune stones as the final payout? Is that a mistake because 10 rune stones makes no sense 1 skill lower level 8. Higher level 16 32 and 64.... whats 10 do for you?

@Wissp@Hermes People want this to be RPG game again and if you guys sacrifice a 1/2 to 1 hour of your day randomly a few times a week 1 could help with you engaging the community buy good will and help people have some fun. I use to do clan event with riddles that rewarded people with gear or adena back when you can farm raid bosses and get decent drops....Ah those were the days. It is simple choose a location spawn a GM there visible but as a raid boss or something make it interesting lol (it can be done we all know it) Then do a server announcement where the GM raid boss buffer is. Here is one that many should get: Go to the entrance where Fire and Water meet but has long been forgotten. (FYI Forgotten Temple) - It is closed off now but GM can stand at the bottom of the stairs at the entrance give their buff package to anyone who shows up for an hour or so. Also random raid boss spawn outside of Giran or Aden - bring back a raid boss we can't see anymore like Beleth, or Lividior and when it dies pop like a Pinata dropping the pots you guys give away anyway but it be fun because makes everyone come together and do something out of the ordinary. We do not want the repetition we things that surprise us; don't make it at the same time because even though servers are based in US these are truly the only world servers in L2 so random times and days could announce ahead of time but do not beholden to certain times some of these are can be done at time. People might complain but you always have that but majority will enjoy a change of pace once awhile. Also make it non-pvp zone in these area you spawn for both or raid bosses (which we know you can do with a GM bubble). See as @Andouille@Hyperlite@Draeckeand few others have been saying we are the old guard here we know what we want as players; we know and love this game and hate seeing it destroyed. We also know the full powers that GMs and Producers have but you do not seem to be using them anymore; and we know you can do a lot more than you do that Korea has no say. Buff pots are up to you, raid boss spawning no saying you can do it, gm buffs you have done on occasions. Please stop with golden dandy balls lol -SlyCutter 0ld Guard

Really unlucky? I usually buy 20 at a time and get a least 1 mastery codex which has gotten all my under +10 skills to at least +10 now lol its not a big difference as they were lesser skills but every little bit helps in L2

Red Libra can never be permanent. Can you stop asking for things that are not possible. Red LIbra is actually a difficult mechanic developmentally for the game and it cannot be run while certain other events are running. Please explain how making Red Libra always going will help the game and not just yourself? No offense I hate people who give suggestions with zero thought behind it or mechanics of it. Your other ideas are not bad but that is a nonstarter why would NCSoft get something that no other territory gets. It use to be once every 9 -10 months be happy we get 2 x a year now and stop it.

I use my college's motto here: Hazard Zet Foward

@HermesHow about we make lets make a deal; hire me as intern with full power over the marketing and event but you don't have pay me. For 30 days or 4 maintenance cycles which ever you prefer I can build box event free event times etc as I see fit. If revenue and active population increase 10% for both you give me a stage 3 lividior bow and full set of god jewels (bind them to my account if you want to make sure they stay on me IDC). If I don't do it you ban permanently and I am done with L2 you don't lose anything and if I do what works maybe your marketing department can get a rented clue and IDK listen to the people who actually play the game? Thanks

I really shouldn't but here is some advice on the current box event: Things to remove that are outdated or serve zero purpose in version of L2: Dragon Weapon Fragment - No use since we got a lot of dragon weapon and people save claws to make level 2 and 3 weapons - REMOVE Scroll Enchant - Artifact Book / Kalilel Bracelet - Farmed easy enough in PI and not expensive on the market a lot cheaper than 80 NC Coins are worth - REMOVE Regular Skill Codex and Mastery Cheap easily obtained cheaper than a cost of one box - REMOVE Grand Kain Medicine - This is a joke right? - REMOVE and please take out of game lol Sealed Talisman Longing - USELESS - Free with Exalted gear - REMOVE Freya Ice Rose - REMOVE Freya Scroll of Storm - REMOVE Artifact Fragment - 1? Are you serious you can buy 1 for 55 NC Coins but here I spend 80 for same one? Your own store contradicts you. - INCREASE x 10 frag a pull to make it actual prize. Spelndor Frags - ADD at least x 10 also Blood/Dark Armor Stones - ADD Rune Stone - 8 Pack - Traceable - ADD FYI - If this a Kaliel box why are there no Greater Kaliel bracelets in it at least or Kalilel Augment stones? Or did you miss that memo too? - ADDD I mean just look at the L2 store and if you can get it for cheaper than 70/80 NC Coins it should never be in a prize box. Simple simple gosh darn marketing. I mean this is Marketing 101 anyone that went through High School basic business class would know these things lol

Everything but the talisman of seven signs.... exactly how to get that outside of box now? Because there is no way to get a seven signs energy in game to make them.

Actually I think if they change it to they way the old hidden Kamael class was maybe there would be a point. Unlocking of a 3rd unique class dependent on what you main and dual class are. Like Main = Archer Dual = Sorcerer Unlocked class = Fire Archer However unlocked class can never be higher level than your main or dual class IE Main is 115 dual is 111 3rd class can't go higher than 111? I mean way to add classes and change builds without reinventing the wheel so much. Also Red Libra changes your class it resets the 3rd class back to 85 for its new combo class. (3r class would always start at 85 no reason to start lower than that) I mean than there is a purpose than that dual class makes sense. Also maybe you got less people wanting red libra and changing to the flavor of the month because it has cascading effects.

No that was said by the devs in Korea its leftover thing that will never be updated or have events again. Someday it will go the way of the faction just be completely gone.

Eh not completely I am not passing on skill power but skill enchanting is different. Its not an easy question. Skill Power, SkilL Crit Damage, and Skill Crit are 3 things archers focus on. You also got skill cooldown so your skills reload. Long winded convo that is not easily answered people think archer is a simple class but to max out damage it is actually very long and multi layered.

Yea I been through 4 iteration of it and I find it annoying especially with having to lower items in my inventory to switch back and forth lol Use to be a dual class, then change to 3 sub classes, then change to a Main / Dual and 2 subclasses, then changed back to main / dual its getting exhausting and serves no long term purpose except extending game play for top players.

No one thinks anything through we are past the "new server" model until they fix issues with how the how game is run in the first place. A new server would not be able to compete against Naia and Chronos in cross server competitions and there is not a enough new population to populate and sustain the cost of running a new server. There are things that realistic and then their are Pie in the sky ideas. That is all I have to say on this this is a dead on arrival idea.

Its not just ando and ish its most of the people the create the content for others in the community too; believe are not there still original L2 members here. I tell you what give me full GM powers for a month and access to your events and I promise an increase in sales and servers which are becoming overloaded with players to a point you might actually need to think about opening a new server. Now now i hear what your going to say how you open a new server this late in the game. Similar allow transfer with full inventories/clans/etc. With certain limits put in place in can be done a new server with a established base can thrive but only after you get Chronos and Naia packed to gills. However on their current course that is not even possible. @Hermes@Arctic@EMpulse@Wissp I want to know one thing from all you try to make this game better..... Give us the class and level of the toon you play so we have some idea you know what we go through. I only state this because I just read a post that @Hermeshas at least 2 accounts.

Because you spelt it wrong

You do realize the amount of effort the competitive classes take to get hero nevermind you give your Friday and Saturday nights or dinners for a month to do it. Not saying all classes are like that but I would say top 10 to 12 classes are and how would you feel if you won something or on the verge of winning something and had it take away from you without given a chance to competition after working 30 days towards it? Yea just take it back good response. I am sure that is how the Cincy Bengals felt after losing the Super Bowl by a field goal too lol

@HermesLets even look at the special prize at day 14: Blessed Antharas' Earring (30-day expiration) x1 Blessed Valakas' Necklace (30-day expiration) x1 Tauti's Ring (30-day expiration) x1 Earth Wyrm Heart Ring (30-day expiration) x1 Lindvior's Earring (30-day expiration) x1 What so special? All those things are in NCStore and more of us got a free one in April from you guys so for everyone 1 of those items is completely useless. No belt... No cloak? I mean you could easisly added a 30 day nevit's cloak or 30 day ruler 2 belt but hey I am sure that would effect your next event and NC Coin purchases. SMH Seriously...... Still a regular Freya rose? I actually have thousands of those now.... Thousands..... Couldnt you just give 1 30 dragon weapon coupon instead of us having to get the coupon every day and regear ourselves.... or was that too challenging for your team to figure out? @Hermeswe all know your database and tools. We all know what is available in GM Panels to give players from illegal servers that show us your options. So this may have worked on a less intelligent less knowledgeable audience 10 - 12 years ago but not in 2022. You have a community that had to create its own information database because you absolutely no information about the game on your own website; your own website lets no one know any of the mechanics of the game, our data base is actually quiet nice patch together by team of players that ACTUALLY ENJOY Lineage 2. I was just talking to one of my clannies the other day. I go yes Dethrone is a nice place to xp but can someone tell me WHAT THE HECK IS REASON FOR IT EXISTING? I have no idea there is RPG element to it, things in like mobs and places have no connection to previous content, there was no video showing why it is there and what is elegia and why should I care about it? You got armor fragments for in game but nothing even in Korean updates about new armor or weapons and all you do is up the level of mobs without explanations. I want to know why I kill a raid boss that is 115 it drops R99 weapons and armor? WHO NEEDS R99 at level 115? You item database makes zero sense anymore. There is no way to farm Dawn crystals Silenite Artifact Fragments Spelendor Frags Elcyum Attribute crystsals nothing. I cannot understand why I go to field of crisis and soulstones and soul ore from the chests.... one skill burns all the soul ore i got in that hour again just filler. I think I ranted enough but I tried to hold out hope about maybe you would move this game in a positive direction at first we saw you were trying but I think as a community we all have come to see your just Juji version 2 here to put out fires and mend to the graveyard and weed the lawn when needs it. You shown you have no real power to effect change or make this a more successful product. ----- SlyCutter

Don't worry Chronos is about to die now with NCSoft latest screw up. They basically laughed at us for what they won't tell us what exactly happened that we lost use of the server for a whole day. I mean at this point @Hermeshonesty would mean more to the player base than anything. Just go hey look I have no power to help you guys or give you fair compestation this is what the Devs allow me to do. If you tell us that then we will still be angry but least have more understanding of who is screwing us. @HelvNCSoft has no control over the logins its something Korea put in to our version so asking them to do this is pointless

Wow they got caught because they forget as a community we save everything lol.... Good job @Hermesyour making this dumpster fire great again lol

One of my clannies just found it. They just gave us an event they had in storage lol https://www.lineage2.com/en-us/news/the-dragon-weapons-of-gratitude-event
