    Learning everything the hard way is expensive

    keep the dex symbols and add one +5 str symbol. 450 gem powders to make lvl 3 jewels does not sound right. u should be compounding to make level 3 jewels not using powders. i suggest using ruby,opal, and if possible a red cats eyes for dmg if not add a diamond. Your bow is very good, does it have an augment? If i were you i would keep the focus enchants on your skills. Do not rush for top gear items take it slow and try to enjoy the game.

    by augmenting my bow do you mean the leonas and kains and soul crystals?

    my bow is R99 +12 bloody, with fire 7, speed fire 9, Tyrr

    jewelry is ? low better than paulinas but just barely, i have to log on to list.

    this for sure.

    If you want to improve your dmg you need a lot it is true, if you want more dmg so you can farm you need Elmore Cloak +15 with 2 decent or top augments.  ATM many ppl WTB such cloak so price is crazy.

    Dual class skills to full DMG. 

    Try to get cheap Taurus agathion, Self BR will help you, if you can improve it will be rly good.

    Dim Bracelet +5 dex will be good enough atm you will upgrade.

    Augment on weapon as you said, you need to get 15% p.skill critical dmg on your 99 bow.

    Olympiad Ring will give you some decent boost on dmg also, read about it.

    Arrows for P.atk 5% might be good also.

    Do you use Prestige pack? Gives you 20% Skill Cooldown reduction, which is a good overall boost + helps with farming.

    Focus on xping and getting your main to 110 so you get the ability points and learn Berserker's Combat Master +10% dmg, this boost dmg a lot.

    Choose a zone where you can XP efficiently.

    most important is to be active and not to slack :)

    Elmore is sooo expensive.. is it worth it to buy a low enchant like a +7 and upgrade or does it require a dwarf with alot of luc to have success in enchanting to +15?

    2 of 3 clients disconnect

    Same issue here, also Chicago. So I've done everything requested from the support team and basically got a BS answer like always to contact the ISP. The game was running perfect for a few years but after these last updates it keeps disconnecting and I'm giving up on it until I the issue is resolved. Who is curious the support answer here:

    Hello,

    Thank you very much for the information as this does appear to show the issue you are having.

    According to this report, your connection is suffering from packet loss. If you are not familiar with this term, it simply means the loss of data while in transit from point A (your computer) to point B (our servers). Packet loss can be caused by any of the following reasons: (1) The information received from your computer can either be corrupted or insufficient. (2) The information wasn't sent at all.

    So how does this affect you?

    In-game: The game fails in trying to adjust your position and resend the data multiple times to your last known location because too much data was lost in the transmission. Now, since Lineage 2 is a client/server setup, the game is always considered right (this is a security measure for anti-cheating/hacking). Thus, the game is forced to adjust your location to where the server last thought you were. This causes your character or NPC's to ""snap back"" or ""rubberband"" between the two sets (one set from your client, another from the server) of information. Since both sets are ""fighting"" between who is right, your character or NPC characters will appear to teleport back and forth while this ""fight for control"" happens. Since not enough data is received during this fight,
    the game will likely disconnect you because it thinks you are already offline.

    Installing and/or updating: In terms of installing and/or updating, a corrupted data might prevent you from obtaining the patch files intact. Thus, the download would either keep retrying multiple times to get the non-corrupted data or error out and stop.

    Because the loss of data is happening prior to it reaching our game servers, you will need to contact your Internet Service Provider for assistance. I would highly recommend sending them these results so they can visually see the issue you are suffering from.

    Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any additional issues, questions or concerns.

    Regards,

    Edanne

    I have left Chicago and i am back in AZ. sop far i have only had 2 of three clients DC once in the last 3 days.

    the explanation of packet loss doesnt make sense to me why it would disconnect 1 client but not the other... are both clients not running on the same computor and same internet connection and same packet loss?

     

     

    2 of 3 clients disconnect

    So hundrets of ISPs arround the world have issues but ncwest is perfect. All other games work but no, ISPs are to blame.. so it is their lol antibot (that clearly is useless anyway) that is disconnecting legit players.

    Pathetic!

    Btw, no disconnects on european l2 since created a char 3 days ago.. just saying

    ISP problem would not explain 2 of 3 clients on the same box and same internet isp connection disconnecting.

    next update selfbuffs are lvl4 melodies etc and lvl1 Harmony so Emperor Special Cocktails are way superior 

    the selfbuffs are just for those that can't afford l2store prices

    support l2store clean up & price reductions as Juji promised!!

    also waiting patiently for return server transfers / main-dual swap / improved prestige pack / real lasting server performance improvements, that slow attack speed delay is annoying af..

    Yes fix slow attack speed

    There is 1 item that I find relevant:
    emperor buff (there are people and I consider myself one of them that we use every day minimum 6 emperor buff, but if I agree to lower the price, it is very high).

    if no ISS emperor is the way i go. like if im trying to level my healer in party with tank and dd.

    can't equip that if u have a circlet and u really should be using a circlet

    you should aim for authority circlet with savior mask combo

    Ok i have the circlet you get when you turn 100. it gives STR +5. when i use my Yul i have been equipping a eye patch for DEX coz everyone says archer only needs DEX.

    if thats wrong i will only use Circlet,

    Also im being told to switch my DEX dyes on my archer to STR dyes, is that true?

    Hi Degamad, I would like to firstly point you out that there is not a single person playing a game who can claim that they never made a mistake ! So please don't beat up your self ! At the end is just a game , you can try what ever you want . 

    > Enchanted Skills. ( I would say that Focus probably is best ) , but even if you want to change them you  just need superior giant codex discipline . ( pm me if you are in Naia i can give you 10 for free )

    > Now that people sell the old pendants, for Archer good compo is  - > +3 Dex - 5% p atack. if you find somethin cheap get that. sell everything else. you can of course keep the Circlet of authority and in the long term make it nobless, but be carefull to make it +5 is a huge adena sink. For the time being i would stay as you are. Only accesory that can be equiped together with the Circlet are : 1) all Single Slots accesories but with NO Stats ( Only augmented ) 2) Saviors Mask ( Another adena sink if you try to +++  ) 

    > For PVE fun you can hunt even 107 mobs with a + 8 Twilight set. you can grab one Blessed and Full Attributed for 5-6 Bill. The + 8 gives you 2 great bonuses ( SKill mastery and 10% Skill cool down ) . R110 is only for the 1% of the server who can actually fully upgrade it. 

    > you should feel lucky that you started recently. Changing SA's 1 year ago was 3 times more expensive. Stage 6 is really good and cheap nowdays. paying 2 Billion for 1% critical damage is not cost effective. 

    > Playing drunk is not g00d for sure, especially when you are in mood for Over enchanting. you end up with empty inventory and many crystals :)

    > Not sure why you want to put full Dex dyes on Yull. I believe you need Full Str dyes and then increase your Dex also with additonal items ( Head Accesories ) , Bracelet , talismans etc. you just need to hit 80 Dex that is the sweet spot, but again that guide is for $$$$. take is slow! 

    > If you want share your gear in your main so we can give you some tips !

     

    So i need to change my DEX dyes on archer to what STR like my Othel? Damn another mistake thats going to cost me lol.

    How do i equip the pendant i cant figure it out. it says i need eye patch or rabbit ears etc to equip but i cant get it to equip.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlqD2k7K5gI One of the best guides I can find on online for Yul archer. Kudos to this guy for taking the time to give us this. If possible can u provide screenshots of your weapon, jewels, brooch jewels, talismans, dyes and such here? How much dex do you have? How often do your skills crit? make a test before changing skill enchants.

    I will check out that video.

    As the title says i feel the need to vent to the community a bit as i am sure you have all felt this pain. I feel like i want to level up as fast as i can and im running into gear issues, so i am trying to learn everything as fast as possible. this game is very deep and requires alot of knowledge and experience or you end up burning thru money faster than imaginable.

    I just enchanted all my archer skills with Focus, coulda sworn i saw that was the way to go somewhere but now i have new info from a post in archer forum that break is the way to go. so im going to have to change all my skill enchants at a cost $$$

    I bought an eye patch for dex thinking it would fit in the other hair accessories slot, it does not. cant keep circlet and eye patch together.

    i bought a thing that i forgot the name of but looks like a pentagram necklace that says is can be equipped with the eye patch, but does not work.

    I had +5 eternal LA that isnt really good enough for anything but i needed to try it to find that out.  saw a good deal on +6 R110 armor so i stole adena from all my other toons and bought the armor, i was so excited till i put the armor on and my stats dropped. WTF. So now i need to enchant armor to try to get my stats up and i already know that is a expensive rabbit hole to go down.

    making many mistakes with the leonas and kains crystal on my weapon and have to redo those a few times cost me $

    Also playing drunk sometimes does not help my cause, example:

    I saved up dex dyes and went to the symbol make and made the symbol. i thought i could just equip a symbol but it equips the symbol for you, problem was i was on my dual so it put the symbol on my dual, lol so i had to remove the symbol it cost me half my dyes. i could have kept dex on my othell but im reading str is what othel needs. and i cant afford to put dye on main and dual anyway.

    the list goes on and on so i have a level 105 archer with low gear but i have probably spent enough for 3 toons at that gear level to get there. very expensive learning curve.

    end rant.

    I read some test on Innova, that Break is the best...  Where that was .....Oh yes, there:

    https://eu.4gameforum.com/threads/660107/

    Hey thanks for that. Damn i just went through and enchanted all my favorite attack skills with Focus. i wish that test in the link had Focus in the test.

    Any experienced archers out there can offer advice as well.. hate to go through the process of changing all my skill enchants just to find out i should have left them.
