Before you go 'YUCK!!', hear me out as a guy who had competetive sides in club, reborn and elmore, which had some version of these settings, i thought they were weird when i joined there, but later fell in love with them. 1st Gonna begin with biddable monthly clan halls, basically there are so many benefits to NO downsides, except a new intresting and unique mechanic. This mechanic i found in elmorelab and thought it was 1000iq, it serves multiple purposes: 1) It sucks out adena out of main, dominating clans, they will bid top adena or risk loosing top CH, for example when i joined elmorelab, main clans did not have stacks upon stacks of money and it was far esier for me to make a comeback, we could easily bid for a ch they own and get it just as they could bid for ours. 2) Sucks out adena out of market in general, good for the market. 3) Small CHs will be available for small clans, instead of them being bought out by big clan in the beggining of the server and being perma locked out, 4) -1 RMT option for RMT people, less chance for some pepeg to be scammed 5) A clan quits? Innactive? CH doesnt get uselessly abbandoned, it goes back into circuit. 6) Intead of big clans just buying out all chs or atleast main ones, everyone gets a fair shot at CH with some cunning, luck and timing, alongside strategy. 2nd Thing i want to suggest is no boxing, 'HELL NO!!!!', says Igariok from Yakutsk, 'I want to log 9 boxes solo and farm toi 5', but hear me out again. 1) No boxing forces people to build a community, instead of Igariok farming toi 5 at 3am alone in a dark, Igariok finds a clan or a cp, and cures his depression at the same time. 2) Boxing fucking sucks, everyone knows that, its so freeing to log just 1 box and play alongside other people. Thats how l2 is meant to be, simple, relaxing time with friends. 3) Elmore and reborn both have this, they both have 3k thriving communities, there is OBVIOUSLY a market for settings like these, we had a great party finder even with boxing, without it will make us more of a community, being you a big clan or Igariok from Yakutsk. 3rd thing which i want to suggest, which combines alongside first two, with reborn and elmore being proof that people seek for this kind of nostalgic feeling. I suggest 1x or 2x rates, yes yes i know, seems hardcore, but not exactly, let me explain the benefits 1) Since we make no boxing, we reduce the value of premium, hence perhaps less income for our lovely admins, why not then make premium give some extra xp, rates are 1x or x2 right? Let premium give 15-25% extra xp, same like on old server, COL could be buyable from other player with adena, so noone is forced to donate, but this will be far better income for admins than people cheating with proxies, adrenalines and not donating to keep the server running. 2) No competition in 1x genre, skelth and grankain is gone, as i said because of examples of reborn and elmore, people want x1 servers, obviously, they have 3k online, come on, 3k online for elmore c1 x1, its like low budget, shittier version of classic 1.5, reborn sucks balls with admins, files and now hellbound update and they are still thriving. 3) 1x-2x is not that far behind from 3x if we're getting xp scrolls in 2.0 or premium which gives 20% xp. 4) Rates are low for ALL, not just you, we will all play same rates, for longer, togheter, with better, more close community. 5) On 2.0 you get ch scrolls, reward scrolls, x3 becomes x6, this is too high and creates no challange. In my opinion, all of these settings work very well togheter to have long lasting and thriving server, we have our hardcore x1, no box loving skelth, gran kain, reborn, elmorelab community who we can try to attract with our project, instead of having thise bland 1 guy 10boxes with 5 laptops thing, endgame in 3 months, top clans locking everything down thing. And the best part about all of my suggestion, YOU CAN ALWAYS REVERT THEM and go back to standard play, you have OPTIONS, you allow yourself some wiggle room, which you dont have if you go with strict, standard server settings, i say, lets fucking try this, worst case we go back to old settings, but lets atleast fucking try to be more unique. It's late, i probably made alot of grammar mistakes.

hi. looking for a cp to be a part of it and deliver great gameplay as a dd available prime hours 19:00-23/24:00 CET or many hours more if it will be really needed discord Poseidon#0875 or pm on forum

Agreed with all points, especially the second one. Boxing is fucking cancer and the biggest detriment to L2. Unless you're Nansey

AT LAST! Yeah! Long time, no see. How folks are doing? Some action is coming, there's no server out there to enjoy, I've been out of L2 for like 2-3 years. I'll regroup my party and if we good with 'time we can play' maybe you should except Vigilance to join again. Where are my lovely Koreans? Missed them, hope we see some names from old times. also hope you doing well. See you around, cheers!

FeelFree cp, Deviate side, looking for 1-2 people.

1. On elmore it worked extremely well, the prices for main CHs even were surprisingly low, then there's mind tricks, you bid for ch, loose it, and overbid it next time while same clan goes for another ch. You can make it every 2 months if you want, but in general this is good for server, imo. 2. You havent seen how it worked in reborn, randoms are looking for raid or xp parties through party making, inviting each other to friendslist, even main cps look for randoms when they don't have main people to fill, it is legit auto community builder, people are talking to each other through pm, this is what you want. IT IS WHOLE DIFFERENT VIBE TO THE GAME, in a good way too. Your second point about server sustain, make premium give 25% xp more, 30%, more? NOONE IS COMPLAINING about this, we understand that you need to make money, make lower rates in general, lets say 1x 1.5x or 2x and compensate it with premium giving more alooot more xp, make premium account give special hats and cosmetics available just for premium, make special SEASONAL premiums, something like battle pass in dota, make specific cool hats appear once every 3 or 6 months for a short time or whatever, dunno thats just some idea off the top of my head. Boxing kills the game, boxing kills community, and again YOU CAN ALWAYS ENABLE IT if people end up not liking it or online goes lower. 3. Im not particularly saying make 1x, im saying make 1-2x range and then make premium give extra xp. I've seen first hand how these settings works, they do work, and they serve a purpose, and you see that most of people want these kind of settings, some might not want these settings but will still try them out and they will get used to it.

1 - the CH going back to NPCs over time its something we have been discussing on for long time in case we would make new project. i like the fact of adena removal and the fact that dead clans cant just keep a CH forever even with 2 or 3 dudes active only. Im not 100% good with the 1 month time tho. maybe a slightly longer period. I can easily see less hardcore clans not being interested on spending all their adena on something they will with big chances loose in a month. 2 - no dual box is not a good option for us and i will explain why from our point of view. - Many of the servers you see running a no box politics they run different chronicles then classic this means, buffs from NPC, herbs while hunting, in many of the cases (with some exceptions) shorter longevity and also in most of the cases less casual players who do not play on the top clans or some of them not even in middle clans and like to play only with couple of friends, wife/husband/kids, or even by themselves. for this people going into a 1 box only way it would make it impossible for them to play and enjoy it if they have few time to play or play out of main prime zones. - Server sustain. yes its a black sheep that no admin likes to talk about but we are not afraid of the subject. premium accounts is a big part of server income, with the box function premium account becomes less attractive to most of the people meaning less people will buy it meaning less income for the server which may end up in server being literally unsustainable, or other methods that go against the hardcore no pay2win mentality ending up being necessary. - With all this being said we still pulled back from what we have on TIx3 and decided to go a bit harder with the boxing limits, therefor we believe the 1 client +1 box with premium brings the balance between keeping people active playing on all classes at all times being it high peak times or low activity times and still provides a somewhat steady income to keep us running for as long as possible (will we go another 7 years + server? ) 3 - About the rates. x3 of classic 1.5 was about 5 or 6 years ago, meanwhile people played on TIx3 that has been HIGHLY increased the leveling speed by boosted locations, level shrinks, bosses EXP, new zones with high EXP etc, Other have been playing other version of the game like h5s and interludes where exp is by base higher then classic and the exp needed per level is less then on classic. so im not sure if going lower then x3 is the best choice for everyone. We do understand a lot of people want it hardcore, but in this hardcore some want it hardcore and others want it REALLY hardcore, our judgement here is that going REALLY hardcore might turn way some people that would like it to be hard and long process but not to the point of ending up having the gran children finishing the char just cuz they didnt had enough play time to do it during all their life time. ALSO: we are open to improvements and discussion about exp boosts that will or not exist in start or opening. like no exp increase from Strix npc, or no exp scrolls on daily missions making it exist only from achievement and events meaning they will be limited and this kind of stuff. with all this being said and i feel i forgot about something during the next month we will run a couple of polls on forum/discord and gauging what and if we can or should or need to change.

Time to quit job

The lower the rates, the more longevity it adds to the server. I feel most people are just too scared to try. I assume that majority of players want to delay reaching the server state where literally everyone walks around with +16 weapons and +8 armors as much as possible.

1. Monthly clan halls - very good idea. 2. No boxes - we could try it at the start and if people will cry to much, it could be changed. 3. Imo x1 is too hardcore but x2 with 25% bonus from PA should be fine.

That didnt work for you. But yea i agree with the points

melees are not playable in 1.5, reason why someone even played it on club is because they had double, on some skills even triple the chance to crit other than that, dmg from melees is terrible and they are unplayable (except warlord, which is more of a mage setup char than melee)

Proffesional looser clan, haven't won 1 server ever, recruiting full cps. You havent met anyone as good at leading as me, if you're not a pepeg, try me out, might delete some baiums tho... sjeks#9159

Suggestion #1: Make EPIC Raids level to scale with Server state so it doesn't become a chore, but a great opportunity for Daily PvP.
