NC knows precisely who uses bot. XIGNCODE3 which is the part of the game client detects bots and provides that information to NC. They literally have dashboard on their side where they can see how many bots there are and who they are. NC just chose not to ban them.
@Jujiit is not just they are not dropping in Elemental Zones - they don't drop in some other zones as well as _party members_ don't get any coins, only attacker, as well as droprate is significantly lowered.
Just to make sure it is also noted - in areas where L2 coins still drop - only characters which are actively attacking mobs are getting L2 coins, not other party members, fix that as well.

Hime said ilegitimate game traffic, that can mean those bots scanning auctin house, or the bots loging on each spot of the sv every few seconds to scam fo chests, or the radars a big no of "top" chars are using, or those macros to auto scan and port to greedy chest location to kill it.. you know.. bots they do not do anything about
I'm from Classic - we have the same problem, so it is not related to whatever is doing something ingame, including bots.
On a side note - it would be useful if NC provided more technical details, as lots of players are quite tech-savvy and experienced Would reduce number of hate-comments a lot. It generally helps to be more open
3 minutes ago, JohnSnow said:so is it safe to say we have lag and disconnects bcs of your inability to ban 3rd party program users?
Maybe next time someone submits a ticket about a program user you actually read it?
Well, from the phrasing Hime used it seems that he says they are being (D)DoSed on the network side (servers run smoothly, but latency increased) and high traffic and/or packet count causes this. I don't think outdated bots might cause such traffic.
@Jujimaybe you need to hire some people who know something about networking and fix this once and for all?
Fix d/c problem

And how your investigation is going? L2 coins still do not drop.
It is already 5 days you are investigating. I guess any customer-oriented company would already fail if they didn't solve customer problem within five days. NC just got used that we are addicted to L2 and they can be as slow as possible, ignore customers and provide no proper feedback.
Question is: when you will fix L2 coin drops?
Please provide the date and time when this will be fixed.
Thanks in advance!
P.S. Please note, that question is not "what are you doing ?" (with the answer - "investigating"), but "when this issue will be fixed"?
To unseal A grade you need item called Cloth Piece. And, to be honest, it is not worth unsealing A-grade jewelry, as cloth pieces cost more than the unsealed jewlery people get from random craft.

When you read about the system, it tells which element beats other so you can to prepare.
Without the "logic" it just become another random stuff to deal with without any chance of planning.
Well, thanks by the clarification.
Cheers!
These cases are quite rare though. And you can actually easily test this in game by changing attribute and seeing the difference in damage.

- But on kill it gives WIND spirit exp.
Thank you.
It is not necessary that mobs attack element always matches their weakness element. i.e. Antharas is earth element, but vulnerable to wind.

Hair accs are overpriced on Players Shops, I thought you would enable them on Black Friday .
Also a question: Why on 2019 event you sold 1 ticket if we need 2 to exchange by a hat? Better just sell a 2X pack no? XD
Regards!!
If you are on Giran server, message me here your char name - I will send you 2 Eva Tickets
There is a very very very simple way to fix what NC broke recently - just bring back all pvp/pk related stuff to the state it was before NC started to "improve" it. This system was working great for 15 years. It is balanced and reasonable. The more you PK the more penalty you get. There should be no limit on how big that penalty becomes. You drop items if you die from anyone - mobs, other players.
NC just needs to stop "fixing" things which are not broken.
P.S. No, you should not remove PK - PK is a part of the game. L2 is designed that way and it is the intention.

It is a noob quest on low levels. But you can get Aden talisman enchant package for L2 coins you either earn by killing mobs or buy buying L2 coins for NCoins.
I completely support @Port. Success rates are so ridiculous.
I think NC is trying to figure out where is the line - with each event it decreases and decreases chances trying to figure out when people will stop spending. This game became just online casino, NC does not care about content, does not care about customers satisfaction. Just $$$.
My proposal:
1. Publish chances (in %) for each of p2w boxes and respective enchant/combine rates. Not "very low/low/average/high/very high" BS we see. In EU it is mandatory to specify probabilities, unfortunately there is no such law in US. I'm more than sure that probabilities are actually _lowered_ compared to "stock" event settings from Korea. I've spent $1250 to get to +5 lvl 3, this is sick.
2. Reduce prices to reasonable levels. $200 to exchange +5 lvl 3 to lvl 4 - are you serious? Each attempt to enchant with brilliant - $20 ? NC, @Juji, @Hime you are crossing the line guys. This is NOT an online casino and not your _personal_ casino. It is MMORPG with _elements_ of online casino (which we accept and understand when they are reasonable). Greed never made anyone successful.
3. Refund at least 50% of money customers (yes, NC, we are your customers!) spent this "event".
Hope that helps.

NC does not care (moreover, they clearly state they do not care in their EULA). Also, it is very simple problem to solve. XIGNCODE3 (so-called anti-cheat software built-in into client) detects all bots and does report it back to NC. They have a dashboard which tells them precisely how many people are using bot and who those people are. They just don't give a <expletive> about this. All they care is income people generate on p2w items. Also, bots farming adena became kinda a vital part of server economy, if they will go, economy might go into the very different way (not saying it is bad or good, just different).
@Juji could you please update us on this? Could you provide an ETA on when killcount will be brought back?
I can confirm that my 40-ish lvl toons are not getting coins from draw rewards.
Well, considering you've mentioned 20->76 on RBs and considering that at least on Giran (pretty sure the same is on TI) all of them are controlled by only few persons who do use "automation" to kill them fast, I can bet you are one of these few persons and ban does not seem unreasonable
If I am wrong in my assumption and you were extremely lucky with raids and persons with automation had their stuff broken - my apologies.
P.S. EULA literally says that they can ban without reason for whatever they want and are not even obliged to provide you reasons - 7(b) and 7(c).
And now try recording this recipe and mouse over it It is funny bug
