No Drop Death Penalty -WHAT?

Recommended Posts

Do you think I came back to this game so you can hold everyone's hand this time around and play Red ROVER RED ROVER we call Kiss1989 over?  Que Kiss1989 running over to me in slow motion happy and safe knowing how boring the game now is that the creator removed everything we'll ever have to worry about. 

Every one of the games original conventions were part of the thrill of playing this game that was missed in every other hand holding MMORPG that has come out since.  How is it "Classic" if you're taking away the stuff that makes it classic? It's like opening a bar downtown and only serving juice.  I DON'T WANT YOUR JUICE HIPSTER.

Not once in my entire time of playing L2 back in the day did the drop item hurt me.  It actually led to quite a few awesome moments.  You think I want to grind my ass off so end game we stand around looking each other in blinkin' glowing sparkly armor saying "gee". 

Part of the appeal of this game is you actually have something to lose.  I can play WoW and have every game mechanic they ever implement jerk me off until I'm coming Unique snowflakes and I'm catching them in my mouth cause THEY TASTE SO GOOD AND I feel so unique and protected in my shiny armor that never gets used CAUSE YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING WITH IT ACCEPT HOLD HANDS UNDER A RAINBOW AND FLYING UNICORS THE WORLD FEELS SO GOOD.

Not one person we have coming back has said "gee I hope they remove the item drop penalty because I want to be safe that's the only way i'll play".  The worst part is Euro Classic has the Drop penalty in...Why do American have to baby their population.  I WANT TO CROSS A BUSY STREET WITHOUT A MARKED CROSSWALK TO EXPERIENCE A LITTLE BIT OF THAT THRILL IN MY BALLS CAVEMEN PROBABLY DID BEFORE THEY SHOVED US ALL INTO CUBICLES 9 HOURS A DAY.  WHY DON'T YOU JUST SKIP THE MOBS AND PUT CUBICLES AROUND OUR GRINDING AREA AND IF ANYONE STEPS IN IT WE'LL PETITION A GM AND RENAME THEM HR CONSULTANTS. FML PLEASE LET ME HAVE SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T CODDLE ME INTO A SAFE CACOON OF VAGINAL WALLED WARNING LABELS AND NERF BALLS. CANT YOU JUST LET ME DROP MY WEAPON AND RUN BACK HOPING NO bleep TOOK IT? AND IF HE DID SPARK A IMPASSIONED CLAN WAR THAT GOES ON FOR DECADES WITH MOM INSULTS AND DELEVELED GIGGLING LIKE IT WAS BACK IN 2004.

I'M NOT ASKING FOR ANYTHING EU CLASSIC WASN'T IMPLEMENTED WITH OR THE CLASSIC GAME DIDN'T HAVE.  PLEASE NCSOFT I'M NEVER GONNA bleep A PORN STAR NAMED STORMY DANIELS IN A BUILDING WITH MY NAME ON IT, I'M NEVER GOING TO COLLUDE WITH RUSSIANS AND BECOME PRESIDENT AND BE ABLE TO MAKE FUN SHIT UP LIKE CHILD DETENTION CENTERS.  JUST GIVE ME THIS ONE THING. MAYBE TWO THINGS, PLEASE DON'T BAN ME, WE'RE ALL ADULTS HERE, GRANTED ITS QUESTIONABLE IF I AM.

TELL ME THE DROP PENALTIES ATLEAST STILL IN FOR REDS?

This is what makes lineage stand out from all the other games I played since 2004 and the reason I'm willing to play the game.  Can you confirm if you're going to hold everyone's hand like every other MMO that does that better than lineage? Cause if so there's no point in playing this game, what this game does best is let the players choose how they are treated.  I'm not saying this cause I'm a prick player, I'm saying this cause its a slippery slope from going from an open world pvp environment with very real consequences to a sub par Hold your hand day care environment of WoW.

Putting the Penalty in the PK

Lineage 2 is considered an open PvP game in which PKs are intended to deter players from engaging in combat with each other without accepting the associated risks. Ultimately PKs can result in the loss of equipped items regardless of their value or usefulness—this includes items that ordinarily can’t be dropped. There’s a fair amount of PvP persistence required while playing the game normally to reach this point. If you’re using macros while AFK, however, you should know that your character is not immune from PKs either. As target macros don’t distinguish between friend and foe, your AFK farming routine can potentially be disrupted to pull your character into a PvP state and incur PKs.

Be warned! If you lose an exceptionally rare and powerful piece of equipment to another player while you’re AFK, Customer Support will be unable to restore it for you. Ultimately the situation of losing items to PK is easily avoided, and hopefully this info helps you stay safe out there!"
