We hope you will enjoy these rewards, and thank you immensely for your continued support!
Best Regards,
Hermes1 day dragon weapons 2 hour vit runes? regular freya roses do have any clue what this server needed or did you not read any posts.
30 day boss jewels that are completely outdated? most people have boss jewels and are working towards angel or god.
Can I get silver arrows I think im running low. This shows you guys have no clue what is wanted or needed none and I mean none of this is making anyone happy.
Its going to be like a ghost town here in a week .... watch.

Nope at all morrow my PC running 24/7 cost me around $27 a year contrary to popular belief l2 doesn't require much resources.
-
its simple put on your hot bar and first time it cycles through your macro hit correspond key 6 for example target the ground where you want to hit.
After that the macro will proceed with targeting the same location over and over till you terminate it.

Yup its not that can only be used on your main it can only be earned on your main once you get it though it applies to both.
-
People asking for red libra a day after it ended that is why it makes no sense as compensation.
Yea there is no perfect solution I figure greater jewels is something the whole server needs and has never been addressed by NCSoft
Seven Signs Talismans seem to be another issue since there is no more 7 seven energies also abunance talismans both thin things were affordable upgrades now impossible to get.
I agree with most there should be a way to work for things in game ... events should just be shortcuts not depended on.
-
Its like an amror piercing arrow? lol.
I target C but they are behind mobs A and B it hits everything it passes through to C. Its an obnoxious skill that really has no use just like knockdown arrow outdated skills that need an overhaul to be useful again, slow shot I only use in Olympiad to kite tanks. So not worth upgrading.
Bow strike is nice quick stun alternate if impact is reloading, I do use it sometimes as a 2nd stun.
So quick shot, pinpoint, impact, multi arrow, arrow rain and phoniex arrow are main skills to upgrade.

Seriously? I have no clue where you live but my electric bill is similar to what has been. Depending on your PC its easy to figure out how much energy it uses there is a plug you can put on it that monitors KW usage / cost per month.
Things that use the most electricity in a home are : Heating/ Cooling systems / Water Heaters / Washer + Dryers / Refrigerator.... Computers / TVs / etc use so little electricity you have no clue. FYI I am electrical engineer so please don't try to tell me IDK.
Want to lower your electric bill unplug vampire appliances, anything that is plugged in that your not using still draws electricity IE hair dryers, blenders, coffee machines kreuigs etc.

@Hermes Red Libra + exp pots is the best reward.
I laugh this is why they get away with things no one is putting thought into their suggestions.
RED LIBRA IS ALREADY PLANNNED EVENT ON A CALENDAR stop asking for it sooner just stop. I cannot stand people who want things sooner they are scheduled. DO you scream at the calendar because Christmas is in December and you want in August instead.... just stop with that.
XP pots they gave you dandy balls so I guess that is fair compensation for you ? Wow.... Out of all the suggestions I am only one that actually address multiple facets for them to bring a sense of balance to what has happened since it was not just the server going down for a day it was they allowed Naia server to use the dimensional server for that day, we also lost all the coins for that 24 hour period (that hurts some people too) At my level i still get 2 - 3 % a day in dethrone which is best xp outside of xp events and only happens 3 days a week and Saturday is usually the best day because many people regardless of location can get on too.
I mean everything I outlined for them to provide us does three things:
1. Balance the server differences with Olympiad as best we can ask for - roll back rankings to Friday so actual competition days are equal not perfect but acceptable. Also give legendary to both servers for the month call it a tie since it was less than 1 match difference between top two people.
2. Top end buff pots for 1 week 24/7 not the load end pots with no expiration date coupled with 14 day Vit rune with no expiration date.
3. An extra we deserve for going through TWO (2) Greater Jewel coupons for none expiring jewels that activate brooch skills similar how we got a free boss jewel.
All this helps people gives us something we all need that can't get (greater jewels) and for NCSoft only costs them time to get it done as it does not effect anything in their store they sell so no lose of revenue.
Fin
Now if someone else can come up with a thought out plan similar to that please do but screaming out red libra and cakes is very juvenile and not putting any thought into what you really need in this game.

Reset hero status for next month, no hero's. we know you can do it, after all you wiped all 20 skill bars from every toon on Chronos lol!
serious though - no joke, really should clear the board for September hero's, its not like this happened week one, or even week two, it happened on the last weekend of the month and last day at that, the most important weekend and day.
I know this suggestion will affect some who would have won anyway, but bottom line is it isn't fair to exclude half the population on the most important day of the month, even if only one person lost hero this way, it's no fair or right.
I still won my hero, but right is right. I am fine with no hero status for one month. There is no way to fix this where everyone is happy however this is the only solution and fairest.
Thanks for the read.
p.s. please fix disconnects porting into Olympiad and adjust to a more reasonable number of points lost. the amount lost now for a disconnect is obscene 28-50pts... terrible and should not be so high. I know plenty on all sides and servers that loose hero over one DC.
Wouldn't a roll back to Friday been a better solution. What you ranking was on the end of Day friday is how ends for the month with the exception of legendary. There are months sometimes with an extra one or two days in Olympiad this will be one less? Some will still be mad but its at least is a fair middle ground that hurts the least people.
And for the month give both servers legendary since that couldn't be settled this month.
Absolute in either direction is bad so do the middle, lets act like Saturday never happened in Olympiad and it ended Friday instead?
-
Yes we get the load pots why i said a weeks worth of the high end ones low end are not needed.
-
Mitzza was not so simple as you think Server literally crashed so bad it caused database corruption. They do a full backup every Wednesday but intermittent ones every hour hour or so not an easy fix. Wasn't scripts that cause a crash like and most likely we will never be told the full story
-
I know the frustration with the exception of your main Pug i think is the issue, I have screenshots etc on my main but alt and sub class and additional accounts not really.
-
I think I came up with an adequate compensation for L2 down time.
1. All accounts with a character with 105 and above toon it are eligible (I mean we tested it yesterday during down time we had 102 - 103 toons with no backup or special gear on naia during down time so reasonable for actual players to have a 105 toon by now)
2. 14 days Vit rune - WITH NO EXPIRATION DATE - so we can save as want to use when it is needed.
3. Weeks worth of buff pots (tied to our normal pots so not create a stacking issues) SO to break down there is 168 hours in a week:
168 Emperors pots
168 Erupting Vitality
168 Viability Maintenance Pots
336 Shining Royal Nevit Gold Hourglass
336 Shining Royal Dragon Attribute Pot
336 Royal Honey Dark beer
336 Brilliant Freya Roses
1008 Brilliant Freya Scrolls
All of these the high end version and easily doable as the been given away before like this.
4. Olympiad - Give both servers the legendary rune this month since we will never know (we do but for arguments sake) which server would of gotten it. Also any change in ranking on the last day of completion is wiped out for hero rankings. It is used for people if needed their 25 matches, but your ranking will be rolled back to what it was on 8/26/22 at the conclusion of the Olympiad that night. Yes I know not a perfect fix but something even Naia won't be able to argue.
5. NOW for what the extra we deserve and a way to correct an imbalance on something that has been out for 8 years.
Two (2) Greater Level 1 Brooch Jewel coupons - Per account 105+ toon. These things been out for 8 years and still cannot manage to understand most the server doesn't have the basic gear to xp or any way to get them. It can be done similar to how you gave away the boss jewel, tied to the account cannot be enchanted but does activate all brooch skills ( go ahead test it make sure that works) .
I think those 5 things are reasonably done on your end and would be acceptable by the majority for adequate compensation for most the screw up of been down on a weekend for almost a full day and allowing Naia to compete against a ghost server for dethrone and Olympiad.

Could explain how i was in PI before it crashed. I was picking up scrolls and they were disappearing not going into my inventory.
-
Naia going to win legendary by 4 points because of this. Skull blood had 14 matches left.
-
Feb 23rd was a long time ago lol
-
FYI its still down lol
-
-
Your right only 90% of the server lol
-
@aelainin theory yes but actuality no.
1200 coins in 48 hours is horrible. You are around 25% chance of their even being a drawing to start with nevermind the chance of winning one.
I mean we saw it with the last event many of the lotto draws had zero top prizes given so your theory is not holding water with how they implemented this.
1 x 0 = 0 coins 2000 x 0 = 0 coins your chances do not change lol
-
Balance the event very quickly by making the coins untradeable and pay out at least 100 coins an hour if logged in. So what good is 10,000 coins on an alt, cuts down on people logging in toons for no reason also.

The lack of communication and documentation about game mechanics in general is really really bad here in L2, only way to understand something is to ask players most of the time. There was a wiki partially working before but its shutted down so now ppl are lost most of the time and got to ask others for information.
And for communication, GM's are very inactive except for (Hermes) right now but its his debut. lets see in the long term, and for you'r information, GM's don't know how the game works, never played L2 but manage it, that's why its a Disaster, they only follow Korea orders, and Korea don't know about our server situation, we often get events and updates that are too advanced for us.
One exemple, not so long ago they sold on a promo "gran kain seed bracelet scroll" to enchant +7-10 seed bracelet., but no one from whole ncwest have a +7 bracelet, and they never gave events/promo/enchanted rates to make those bracelet +7. This proved my point above. Copy paste korea events without thinking about our situation.
That was not always the case if your old school player you remember the old school GMs like HGMSpam, HGM Sliver, HGM Goose etc all played the game and I actually knew who 2 them were on their in game characters. They knew who was the bad people, they knew the exploits, they had a lot of issues with programs and botters back then too and L2 adena farmers.
Today you are correct I think I only have met one GM recently that still plays L2 HGM Wraith not sure if he still around.
