This game doesn't like them either. It's just Human Knight with 2 heal skills. Oh and he has pretty good buff for 1minute. Rest of the skills feel like they were slapped in with 0 thought.

They made this for people to use https://l2db.club/

From what I understand this server currently wants to improve L2 balance or content with their own ideas. Why not improve duration of some skills for example? Skills like cubics. They work around 17min so why not make them work for 20min like most buffs. Destroyer buff works for 10min and it's fine. Why not do the same thing for Gladiator skills? Why Gladiator War Cry or Duelist Spirit works for 1-2min when CD is lower? Make it 10-20min for convenience. Dwarf skills work for 5min. For example as a Gladiator you are already constantly charging force to use your skills. It's annoying to use buffs every 1-2min. It's a bit hard to believe that a server like this which added it's own unique twists to some skills ignored these skills. I don't think there is anything op about making Duelist Spirit or War Cry 10-20min buffs. Please think about it.

Santa spawned in Oren UTC+2:00 as I am writing this. My suggestion would be please don't make stuff like this ever again. Some may be ok with this but game is a game. You are forcing people to sit and wait for magic spawn. If you don't want to have that npc all the time just make a schedule. Don't post exact hour just day when he will spawn. I saw him spawn enough of times but I can imagine the situation of players that can't play often and at the time when a lot of people will be celebrating...

Got rec for that shield but can't find location where would fragments drop or spoil. Is it just a mistake or there are places where you can get them? https://l2wiki.com/classic/Knight's_Shield_Fragment#Drop

Yeah it uses one debuff on trigger but I am always using aggro so cubic triggers maybe 3-4 times in 30s if not more. So it would be safe to assume it would be under hex most of time. And the problem was not because Raid was not under Hex as I would sometimes hit is as well I could see it was. According to that guy cubic hex is weaker than actual hex when Cubic performs it. I know that cubic does same debuffs you can do and they do not stack.

Sooner or later I will find one or just pay premium again and use it as box. I kind of like WC so I play him from time to time and even gear it good. Just it gets tiresome to be ignored over fighters with bows when WC probably does more dps.

Maybe just maybe some one will read and actually think and invite support classes. Not saying fill your party with Bishops and Prophets but they aren't trash to just ignore. On noob part I know what you mean... Just few days ago while I was playing tank some pro kept spamming me to use Hex. It's hard to type while running in circles and I just told him cubic does all work. Next thing I see "Sigh tired of noobs". "Doesn't even know how his class works. Amateur". The cubic throws 3 debuffs with same power and one is hex. Maybe SK is a mage in disguise?

Finding party to RB with a WC is like joining any party and begging... Like hello WC has largest str out of mages, weapon mastery increases any weapons dmg, soul cry for more p.attack. He can even dot burn. Maybe he won't hit like a real archer but honestly maybe better than other fighter characters. Clearly you want stuff like BD,SWS or archers over other picks but I dont see why would anyone pick other chars over WC. Even then when I finally join I come with best gear while half of party has weak bows.

Well if you want to have cash than spoiler will help with that but you will have to level and gear it as well if you want good income. Spoilers are always good on low rate servers as only they have ability to gather materials. Server has plenty of players and from 2.0 update people keep joining. So far no problems on making party or trading. On classic it will take time leveling and getting things you want but while it takes time you will most likely get trough most content it has to offer like Raid Bosses or different zones. That way you will enjoy everything L2 has to offer. On buffer question it really comes down to what you really want. Buffer/Healer are Shilen Elder or Elven Elder. Buffer/Small Healer is Prophert. Buffer/Dps/Debuff are Warcryer and Overlord. Fighter type Buffer are Sword Singer or Blade Dancer. If you played l2 you will know the classes so it depends on what you want. Classes like PP and WC are boxes often. With Swordsingers and Bladedancers you will be able to do so damage and will be welcome in parties. Even if some classes are often being used as boxes still active one is more useful and will find his place. Think about what style you want to pick and look up the skills here: https://l2wiki.com/classic/Human You can try to pick a class that works really well with your friends class. Synergy is always good.

I appreciate those few that tried to give their opinions in proper manner but there isn't really much to talk about now. Many here just are unhappy and sad people. Someone writes a topic with a suggestion suddenly it transforms into "You complain. You will always complain" and then throw some more empty assumptions... Useless or not every game needs a stream of new players to keep it alive. You behave like this is an attack on your game when I only suggested to have protection against characters with much bigger level and there was nothing about disabling PK. I will play this as much I want but you kind of dig your own pits with "Every new player useless", "Git gud" and "You only complain" mentalities. To others thank you for your opinions.

People like me? Who exactly? What are you even talking about... Made a suggestion on forum part that is for suggestions = complaining. I am already leveling multiple chars which will take long time and the time required according to you is clearly for those that sleep at their pc. Who the F are you to tell me to play or not? With your crystal clear arguments you are surely showing why PK is huge part of the game. You are clearly one of those that are unhappy with everything and feel the need to show that dissatisfaction. If you don't like people "complaining" than ignore the post. I played official and I played too many private servers. I barely remember any PK incidents as people just resolved it with fighting. I don't remember any archer squads or people killing others that are fishing. Ignore forum threads and ignore my comment as you will reply to it most likely again just assuming stuff. I do this not because I feel like I need to change the game. I do this because for example I don't want to see some kid killing others at 2-3AM while they afk fishing. And he can do that with pretty much 0 consequences as there are no guards and he can step back into peace zone.

They more likely force people to go play something else so that when they log back it would be time for kids to go to sleep. I wouldn't be playing if I was against PK but when they run around killing majorly weaker characters without any consequences there is a problem. PvP is big part of L2 not PK... No one said anything about removing it. Just adding protection to 52lvl, maybe add penalty for killing weak characters or entirely something else to make it a bit fair. I don't see much difference in this type of PK from a guy using alt characters killing afk fishing people on platforms. Those that do these kind of things seriously have some sort of issues.

I am fine with occasional PK but not like this. I come to one spot I am shot in the butt and then I go to another spot which is far from last one and still same guy finds me and shots me in the butt... He has almost 0 consequences because no one will win against him and if someone pops up he will run or relog. I have my main which is 35lvl, spoil 45lvl and wc 48lvl. I play sometimes with friend. Before I play on main I collect gear and books. I had to play for a week near Ivory Tower for that god damn phantom cubic spell book. Now I am trying to farm sea of spores. As I have to level wc as well I gain 0.03exp on both characters. It takes hours to gain some %exp. I lost 20%exp on wc today with those unwinnable fights. I can't run away either with lack of speed. There isn't much PvP when double shot takes all my cp and good chunk of hp on a dwarf with buffs and full plate armor set. It just would be nice to have protection against PK until 52. People will have their skills,gear and join clans or something when they get there. I don't want to block pvp just somehow make those fights fair. Maybe add penalty for killing low lvl players. I am sure there are more refined ideas to this topic. I wouldn't write this if it was few times but it happens too often.

Like first let me tell why I think it's needed. Around a year back I started playing here. For multiple weeks I have seen same archer with friends killing people at Plains of Lizardman and he is the guy that has 7200 PK kills. Because of that PK list I can see that not only he had top C grade he had like 10+ levels over others. Soon I quit to wait for 2.0 and few weeks back I started playing here again. Now yesterday at Ivory Tower crater people from a clan came with 3 archers and started killing people for no reason. Today I go to Cruma Tower and as soon as I start hitting a mob some archer again with gear and over leveled kills me. I move to sea of spores few hours later same archer from Cruma Tower kills me again and then again. So all exp I got was out the window. There are some other examples like a guy threatening me to kill me with high lvl mage because he thinks it's his farming spot when I was farming there for hours. People abuse that fact they have high lvl characters. There is no gameplay or fairness in being shot in the butt by high lvl PK character. I am fine by being killed by similar lvl or even by multiple enemies. As we know on classic version few lvl difference means everything so it would be good idea for example have protection from over leveled people that are like 6lvl above you. Or just have protection from PK until lvl52 for example. I know pvp is important in this game but some are working hard to level and get gear while others create alt's to kill weak players without pretty much any resistance.
