That is a nice amount of good stuff, but i have some questions:
This Exp table change will impact the characters right now? Last time you guys fixed the level 55 to 56, it was said that the exp would be added back to people that were 56+, and then you changed your mind and didn't add any exp.
This time the extra exp earned after 56 will be adjusted/given back to the chars?

ALso: the party bnonus increasing in 50% would mean that it wil go from the now 120% ( at 9 players) to 180%?

Whats in these? I am especially interested in the Royale Equipment pack.

[HenryrCanna]

What about Disconect, attendance unclaimed due to logging issues, constant lagg in game, maybe change your servers after 15 years?

[Enthused]

@Hime Will everyone level 56+ be credited with the extra XP that they previously earned to go past those levels, now that each level requires less XP?

[xxbutcherxx]

Like they did with level 55, for everyone 56+ nothing will change just adjust the exp table.

When you in a party you get certain amount of bonus exp ( which is terrible ) now they increased that by 50% which still be terrible. They said they will boost everything and yet solo exp will remain the same..

[Chigikogo]

Nice bot event.

[Jrock]

This looks like lots of benefits for the server, I wonder if there a catch? 

[NCwestCDPD]

At least bots cannot delvl

They were mistaken. The XP curve change in Lineage 2 is never applied retroactively (it is meant for people to catch up).

With all server issues it would be nicer to extend this one for a week.

I'm not a bot and I'm so happy  now cuz of bot legit players can't enjoy a good event or what? bleep the bots!!! nothing new since 2.011 goddess...I enjoy the game without looking back.

[Psychocat]

Would have been perfect if they also boosted the XP, but I guess you can't have everything. Hopefully bots won't ruin this chance to get some decent drop from farming mobs.

Do this applies retroactively for chars Lv. 56 and higher?

Do we get to claim these potions now on old chars who already completed the mission?

 

[vaistas]

Items aquired through lottery such as RB jewels and over enchanted weapons will be permanent?

[Treyvn]

If they follow live server, about that new xp curve all characters will be at same level and xp % 

and all the items players got from this event will be permanent unless timed base like 30days
