DJR Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Hi all, I used to play on the Gustin server many years ago, I had a lv78 Cardinal by the time I left the game back in...2009 I think. Since hearing of the classic server launch, I've been excited to get back into a game that I enjoyed so much all those years ago, but it looks like things have changed somewhat since then, so perhaps someone could fill me in on a few things? - What is Skelth? I've seen lots of mentions of this EU classic server (and being from the UK) I was interested in finding out more. From what I've found, this is a private EU classic server? - It looks like there's a lot of speculation about the classic server being for NA players only - does anyone have any official confirmation on this? I used to play on Gustin because I had friends there, despite it being a NA server. The ping never seemed to affect my gameplay, so this won't bother me for the classic server either I suspect. - A lot has changed since I quit the game, I've got a busy full-time job, I've got married, and had a child. This means that I'll only really be able to play 1-2 hours a night, including weekends sadly. So it's very unlikely that I'll be taking part in siege battles and the Olympiad. Is anyone else in a similar situation to me? My wife will be joining me in returning to Lineage II, by pure chance, she used to play the game too on a different server - something we didn't know about each other when we first met! We're looking to play very casually for the nostalgia, and hoping to find people in the same boat. - Anything else that's changed that I should know about? I'm sure I had another question to ask... but it escapes me. Thanks in advance for anyone who decides to fill me in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've found, this is a private EU classic server? https://eu.4gameforum.com/threads/651426/ I never played there but you seem to be right. Compared to the official classical Skelth looks like a C4 patch, instead of the "1.5" official will run. so a big diffrent with the IG content; read the FAQ Quote - It looks like there's a lot of speculation about the classic server being for NA players only - does anyone have any official confirmation on this?

They will open 2 servers, Talking Island GMT-5 ("NA") and a Giran GMT +1 :). Quote - A lot has changed since I quit the game, I've got a busy full-time job, I've got married, and had a child. You descibe my situation there, played on some private servers after the good old days but nothing really comes close to the nostalgica I feel about the classical gameplay. So ill give it a try with the time I got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taunt Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I'll keep this short and sweet. 1. Skelth is an official classic server, not a private server. Innova group started euro based lineage 2 servers when Goddess of Destruction launch. 2. NCWest only officially supports NA players, however you should still be able to play like you have in the past if you're a member of the UK, only certain countries are ip blocked. 3. There are changes, however in the version we're starting on with. Classic 1.5 you'll find a lot of it more familiar that you think. 4. Casuals always have a place to play, just don't expect to be leveling crazy fast. Over a month or 2 to hit 40+ for sure at 1-2 hours a day.
