I don't know what you're talking about. you went off on a tangent on assuming I'm talking about getting to fantasy isle. I'm talking about "timing!" it's not like GM buff last for the entire day! that's the LUCK I'm talking about. By the way, all 12 of my toons got the GM buffs and went back to CP.

yeah... I know, shining star train... well, I was on extended vacation nov-2018 to mar-2019 10,000 miles away in Southeast Asia living the good life; it was a spiritual journey of the most high; I did not even log in for nearly 4 months and I guess I didn't put enough adena and eventually it got depleted. so I lost the clan hall. sucks. that's why you don't see me in shuggart anymore lol, it's ok, the way it is now, who needs a clan hall, I never ever go back to town. @Juji is it possible to loose Lv.6 Sapphire jewelry if we sell it in Auction House, did not log in for 4 months, the unsold item comes back to mail and eventually got deleted? I believe I may have lost one that way. I thought I ask.

I second the motion - on Christmas Day GM buff ALL day long in Fantasy Isle

Ian, they don't auto explode LOL... going pink, then pvp kill you (not pk) is the oldest trick in the book but that's really nothing. you guys have not seen the days when scammer force you to PK them when you're afk macro and you loose hundreds of dollars, sometimes even thousands of dollars in equipment... the whole point of auto macro is to assist you, is not designed for you to be AFK for 24 hours and never ONCE check in to see if someone "pink" you and killed you. You'll do well if you check in once every 2 hours. at least you'll loose xp less than 2 hours. Repeat offense by the same person, on you continuously - is consider a bannable offense under "player harassment" which you can report by looking through damage log of who is the perpetrator.

@Trixas I just noticed this ROFL... hehe. send me ingame email so I know who you are in game yeah I've been at that spot for 3.5 years... I left for 6 months to AF.... over the course of 3.5 years, the mob levels has been upgrade/updated three times... used to be lv.100, then 102, now 104... with the next update, it's possible they'll increase further because in the https://eu.4game.com/patchnotes/lineage2/197/ it's one of two places that mobs will get m.atk and p.atk value changed (increase of difficulty and xp reward is assumed). My style of play is casual hardcore - meaning casual as in, I don't care about being the best or the fastest leveler or getting the best gear. hardcore as in, I am very determined to study all the mechanics of the game to run everything as efficiently as possible, both from energy consumption of hardware to maintain CPs and also from my bank account for every dollar I spent, I want maximum return for a group of characters as One. I box multiple toons because XP get boosted by 200% with 7 toons, I play all 7 as One Unit, you'll never see them walking around alone unless they go to town solely to get event boosts or turn in quests. Getting 2nd or 3rd rate hand-me-down gears is much cheaper and can stock more toons. All the toons combined also yield the greatest fighting power against a single toon. Also independence not having to wait for parties in years past (was bigger deal few years ago than now). Everyone essentially is now playing closer to my style of play that I started 14 years (boxing multiple toons legally). We used to joked among us professional multi-boxers as "Multiple Toons Syndrome", MTD. ROFL.

financial discrimination against mastercard, discover and american express

You didn't logged in long enough for the Rudolph Agathion to kick in. So I guess it still works.

I wonder if the Seer sections actually helps that dying class? ISS got boosted now that everyone can self buff. Reading through this makes me feel confident about the future of this game; it seems they actually cared. NC game mechanics designers and developers actually did a lot of great improvements to clean up a lot of old junk and outdated quests, skills, etc. No need to drag potions to auto use, macro targeting speed is faster, mentor / mentee system revamped now all the 85-104 can now become a mentee and gives great reward to the mentor 105+ toons (clan reputation), blacksmith of mammon are permanent, no more moving around, all important NPC are in the town center for Giran, Aden and Heine, XP bar now has special boost indicator, SP isn't needed anymore to learn skills (i think that's the dumbest thing ever), etc. I like to see a loosening of obtaining quests due to inventory limit I like to see removal of char-to-char item exchange window not get destroyed when another party member are being hit. Couple of updates ago, I can't say enough about the removal of armor/weapon grade restrictions. I love it. Live Long And Prosper Lineage 2 (Vulcan Hand Sign _\\ //).

@PanZloty for EV monsters changing p.atk and m.atk, i assume they will hit harder, higher levels and have more xp reward?

You can't even at least have the proper etiquette to say Happy Holidays back?

there was a GM buff this week but it's luck if you find it. all my toons got the 11 hour GM buffs (vitality galore) which is nice

I can hear a high pitch violin playing....

I'm impressed too LOL

it's been 12 hours now, all steady since that hiccup.

I never get such lag, i think it's PC related issues. What part of the world are you hailing from?

I like to report, on 12/21/2019 around 10pm Pacific time, there is a massive disconnects across all types, all accounts, multiple laptops - just total wipe out disconnects. There are 3 left standing and not disconnected. I salute those 3 of the resilient unwavering commitment to Chronos.

you can be a single toon and use exotic scripts as real bot and 100 billion accounts opened legally in Siberia heating up the bitcoin farm and be considered legitimate "macros".

GM buffs already compensated

i'm running fine with 12 toons active in the field, 3 shops. there is 1 hiccup of 3 accounts d/c on one laptop, on non-vm mode (so it's categorical - pointing to potential Windows OS issues not server). IF the disconnects are 3 random across 4 categories, laptop1-non-vm, laptop1-vm, laptop2-non-vm, laptop2-vm then maybe it's server side or network. But out of 4 categories, it's categorically 1 of the 4 category so - leading me not to blame server in my case yesterday. Since server reboot and GM buffs, i have been consistently connected - including all the shops in Giran.

See you in game fake quitter. Machine translate sucks.

@Emirates btw, I love the A380 jumbo double decker flying fortress. anyways, did you get the GM buffs past hour? It gives you 11 hours of ridiculous vitality ultra bonus

@Juji will all +11 to +20 skill enchants be reset? can we get compensated for skills 11 and greater?

@MartikaCS hopefully it's not too late or next time... GM buffs are located on Fantasy Isle... From Gatekeeper main menu - Fantasy Isle; do not click Teleport to go into town... just stay right when you access the gatekeeper... where Monster Racetrack is...

you WHAT? I love the 50% xp event... i exp FASTER than HELL over normal days.

yes it was learned... it seem at one time NC was trying to reset Exalted... so I'm stuck with that book because I already learned Lv.2 (meaning I got to thave Lv.1) and now I have learned Lv1. and Lv.2 and have extra Lv.2 book left over - this is CLEARLY a bug lol
