    They made barely 102 in 3days (coals everyday and castilla), ran out of arrows at lvl101 where they ran out at lvl103 before. So +-6m investment to get infinite arrow in shop. They are now with 7m in each at lvl102 and running out of free soulshots.

    So even their only "income" to make up for soulshots, gearing now has disappeared since it is impossible for them to farm higher places than Enchanted Valley with their main and no soulshots.

    For my part, I met a group of 3 people and we were doing daily +- 5% exp easily at lvl107 in Alligator before update. Now this exp is 1,5% +- instead. We barely drop adena from mobs and have to invest saved money for soulshots.

    I can understand that the game is not "Truly Free" and I don´t mind to invest a few bucks from time to time for a nice event (cloak, circlet, agathion), but for the rest it is hard to get it through normal gaming.

     

    I feel the same way & I am not a new player. I started in prelude & have been playing on these same ncsoft retail servers this whole time.

    I am not a big spender but I would say over all of these years I have probably put close to $1,500-$2,000 in this game during all this time.

    But I decided about close to 6 months ago that I was done dumping money into this game.

    I have continued to play as best I can without paying more money but L2 has gotten to the point where it is just no fun anymore & no real in-game way to progress.

    The way L2 is now it has finally pushed me to just try out different mmo's, etc. & ween myself away from L2. The waiting cues help lol.....If I log in & get a cue screen I will just shut down L2 & play something else.

     

    There should be some real progression in the game but there is not. I don't agree with this whole exalted 1 & 2 free gear handout route & no other drops from mobs approach.

    There should be a 1/2 way reasonable way to progress from one hunting zone to the next level hunting  zone in game.

     

    For instance:

    Blazing Swamp-lvl 99+ zone......should have a 1/2 way decent chance to drop R95 gear from normal mobs

    Giants cave-lvl 100+ zone.......an even higher chance to drop R95 gear from normal mobs

    Hellbound-101+ zone......should have a 1/2 way decent chance to drop R99 gear from normal mobs

    The 103+ zones.......an even higher chance to drop R99 gear from normal mobs

    105+ zone......& even higher chance to drop R99 Gear

    & the closer you get to lvl 110 zones & higher, those areas should start to drop R110 gear from normal mobs

    This would give people a way in game to gradually get gear in game to support their toon & have a way to actually look forward to being able to hunt in that next higher level zone.

    Of course raids should play a part too for faster gear but for the most part I am just talking about the different zones.

    At the moment the hunting zones are just dull afk macro-fests that won't get players very far since there are no drops. It is boring as @#^@$&

    So much for any hope of L2... *heavy sigh*.

    Yes, I am sad for what L2 has become. I have been here since prelude & I must say in my opinion L2 was best from prelude until c4/c5. L2 started going down hill after that.

    Very low to no drops from just normal mobs, cut adena drops by 3/4, just keep introducing more pay-to-win / Gambling that costs way to much for the amount of adena that normal players can make in game. Way too much reliance on L2 store just to be able to kill mobs, tons of more $$$ if you want to pvp at all.

    & now unlike a lot of other mmo's, there are no meaningful quests/rewards system. Nothing to actually do besides just afk macro-bot. & that only gets you to Blazing Swamp.

    Normal players who don't spend a lot of real $ won't have the gear to "macro-bot" in any harder zones like hellbound or higher. For most it is game over at this point.

    Only the hardcore spenders left for higher zones.

     

    I still log in to l2 but not near as much as I have been. For the most part I am trying to move on to other games. L2 is just no fun anymore with no quest/reward system,

    no gear drops, only macro-botting for xp, but what for ?? higher lvl gets players nothing. there is no character progression here. :(

    Nothing worthy of discussion IMO.

    +1k

    Only 1 new normal hunting zone. Everything else is ruined with this timed instance junk.

    & new skills that require a "Greater Rune Stone" ???  lol dont make me laugh. It is hard enough just to get a normal rune stone for a decent price.

  5. I swear the korean devs are clueless when it comes to making changes to ncwest version of L2.

    Fix the stupid Blazing Swamp & the stupid 40k exalted quest line.

    That is like the only area of its kind with easier mobs for the 40k exalted quest and it is just swarming with stupid idiots.

    ks/pk central. can't get anything done.

    This disgrace just makes me want to take a long break

    until they get this fixed.....if ever.

    My steam games never looked so good compared to how L2 is now.

    Do we have an ETA on the restart that will bring us the update (from the time of a post)?

    In roughly 20 hours from now.

    From Juji:

    Hello All,

    Unfortunately, the Winter of War update has been delayed to 1/16 due to a technical issue we encountered during our final checks today on the release build. We apologize for the inconvenience!

    Best Regards,
    The Lineage II Team

    Some additions to patch notes:

    Exalted Weapons have 10% PvE Damage, Max HP 15%, and additional stats depending on the weapon type. The weapons are already elemented.

    Will there be a way to change the 300 holy element to something else ? Or introduce a new L2 store item that will change the element from 300 holy to 300 "another element" ?

    Well, that weapon is meant as a reward to your main competing exalted. Also you can exchange it before you enhance it for 100kk.Obviously this weapon is much more flexible than the normal ones, which you can only exchange during red libra. The cost is also reasonable and it's a good idea to just get the weapon you need for your dual or main, whichever is better for you. Same goes for the armor set, although it's much cheaper to exchange.

    Would be much better if the system would let you choose which element you want for the weapon.

    Since it does not, then the L2Store needs a new item just for these weapons that will let you change which element is on it.

  9. Any plans on being able to use the exalted books while on a dual-class instead of main class ?

    I have a toon that I have only been leveling up its dual class on but I can't use Spellbook: Dignity of the Exalted

    Dual class is 104 & can do the exalted quests,& turn in the quest while on dual class. Just can't use the books ???

    Main class is only level 99

     

  10. GM Juji wrote this in another thread:

    The client limit will not be increased any time soon since we are still waiting on several server upgrades. Once I have confirmation on the upgrades, I will post an update on the client limit changing past three.

    @Juji thank you for being willing to GM buff but its sucks that the timing is not done well for most players.  As a NA server, why not be available when N/A players can get on.  After work in the evening, not middle of the day or afternoon.  I just got home from work.  Seen I was D/C from server restart and checked forum to see GM buffs.  By the time I was logged in on my characters they were gone,  It freaking sucks because I'm effected by the server even if I wasn't sitting here the exact moment something happened.

    Gm's need to forget about doing that "log into server & buff everyone thing" & just do the following.

    Bring down the servers & put a GM Buff Item in all players inventory or warehouse, then players can use it at their convenience, when they chose to log in.
