VIP are for the rich, with diligence, tactics, and luck you can take them down according to famous Korean mmorpg webnovels like 'Overgeared' or "The Legendary Moonlight Sculptor".

Check the timezone of the server and choose the one which prime-time is better for you. About archers: I think Kamael and Darkelf are the popular ones currently. (not sure)

Elemental summoner. The summon of the necro is Transfer pain hp pool + decoration. The summoner of the ES is Transfer pain hp pool + Nuke like an A.Bomb.

That is not easy to answer, the plan was something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZM2Y7Oih9A But something like this happened after a few month. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jlw6wYI72Sg Some players learned how to code and some use scripts + bots, there is also legal auto-farm option, there is no box limit while adena and xp drop is low. Glolbal gatekeeper implemented, players with karma can use it too. There were a lot of "lottery" type event when you can buy a chance to get good items/gear with real money, some call it pay to win, but most just pay, usually 99% do not win. Top gear is S grade, XP and Adena is somewhat slow. Olympiad changed to some strange system with buffs and pots. No subclasses, no noblesse, strange attribute system. I encourage you to try it, but if you expect c4 / interlude experience ... well, good luck!

If you willing to spend some cash, I heard the starter pack and advanced starter pack is a good choice when your 15 day weapon is worn off. You should also raise a WC or PP at least to support your gladiator. Try to only use soulshots if they are really needed to save some cash, and also save sayha buff scrolls for places where it is the most effective. You can check ingame prices at web, once you will get some adena, check regulary and try to find a decent dual for yourself, till that use 15/30day duals from packs. https://l2stat.info/

Every Cardinal in general or just one? If just one which one? Top level or Hero or Purest heart of the user by physhology test or just yours? I think the limitation isn't there because the Cardinals are evil and deserve punishment. It is there because death should have "some" penalty in general I guess.

Most people not just create a character and play. They create a "Unit". A Unit is a party with matching classes which can be 'installed' to a farm spot with autofarm/macroloops to get xp in AFK mode. If you wish to play the "old way" with no autofarm/macroloop/multibox/bot, you need to find a clan with people of similar thinking, or just use "shout-chat" and try to find a few friends, however beware, it will not be easy among the sea of bots to find someone who actually reply to a chat... If you have no luck and you are desperate to find a party, you can also try to find illegal servers, there are some where there is no autofarm and even multibox is prohabited while rates are low. (for example google l2reborn)

Best to start all together, and level them together, easier for daily-quests and seting up afk-parties too. I only have 1party (7char) and the dps is melee. I guess it is easier to setup, specially if you bring along a tank, however I always felt the ranged parties are more powerful next to me.

I actually suggested something similar a while ago. Elemental summoners should be merged to a new server with all of their horses. However botters wouldl come back with the 2nd best option to farm. Also, currently not the bot users are the real problem, the current gamedesign, ui, recent decisions are forwn upon by 99% of the players. https://forums.lineage2.com/topic/14594-merge-servers-giran/?tab=comments#comment-102127

If you have very good overenchanted gear, probably you can solo for a while with a WC, you may need to use some healing potion setup too. If you only have normal gear, I think you cannot do it alone and you will need more Dps and heal.

Hello. I think 2 char in a party will not be sufficient for higher levels. You will need good buffs, heals, and even recharge sometimes. EM is very good, and PP is a good buffer too. If you can want to level like a mage with nuke you need Empower + Clarity + recharge + dance, so raise a Shielen Elder,Elven elder, and a Blade dancer. With those 5 you will be able to nuke around constantly. For WC main you should not be a solo player, but find some clan or cp if that is possible. WC is good mostly for support (buffs), it cannot dish out too much damage to farm fast.

Gz Aares, you got the 40.000th post, and it is also positive post which is somewhat rare nowdays. You should get some reward like xp boost or buff scrolls from the company. Btw I do not think this the end either, just checked account prices on a site, and they are still high.

I am in the same situation as you, just on lv79. I think adena is overrated, when you think about what would change if you get +100kk or even 300kk you will find that not too much significantly, just some extra gear, but you will not gain the ability to farm in ketra/varka/gc/loa. Do not use shots, stay in elemental zones, go for lv85.

Nice idea, but I would not expect too much income from it. Probably only low level „active” people would use that, especially if the buffer is at a highly populated area. At higher levels many have their own buffers in a neverending macro-loop party, and some who do not have the mental power to setup macros even pay cash for 3rd party softwares. According to the recent changes the game design goes toward a different direction, there is a higher chance that the buffs go to Ncoin shop. The possibility of implementing something which do not earn cash for the company is not too high.

Oh I see, you are a man of culture as well. That! That is a prophecy, a vision, a feature! Just think about the simple and elegant design. A new button in the UI to setup how much adena you would like to burn for each swing/spell. 10 adena +1dmg, 100.000 adena +10,000 dmg. It would be much easier to fight in pvp or kill antharas, and there would be no inflation, ever.
