That bike is pretty fuggen cool desu. I'd probably keep it as some "tier 10" invitation reward, such as if 100 people you invited got to level 70 or something like that... Just not for €1000 for goodness sake

There's no need for drastic change of the system in principle, just change the rewards from donation bonuses to something that you get right away. Getting new people is one of the most important things for the server, no need to go cheap with it either.

https://l2classic.club/partner/ There's nothing wrong with adding some donation-related bonuses - it's a free server after all. But every single bonus being strictly and only about depositing cash? Is this really the first impression that we want to give to new players? That if they collectively donate over 1000€ their friend might get a bike? Geez, this reward system is an absolute mess. Keep some of the donation bonuses but rework it so that you don't have to pay extra money to get anything at all out of it.

yeah it's a tough call, I can hardly imagine a newbie enjoying this game... Most MMOs these games are usually full of features to keep you entertained on your way to endgame, they send you to different locations and do different stuff every X minutes to not let you get bored, you do this quest, you run there, you build yourself a new armor, you ride some godzilla, fly to Moon on unicorn, there's tons and tons of different skills that you upgrade and you have to actually aim them and combo them etc... Meanwhile L2, especially Classic, is basically "ok here's your char, you're going to spend another several weeks to months left-clicking mobs and then we might let you participate in the fun part of this game". L2 Classic was never intended to be a game for newbies, it's strictly aimed at oldschool players.

Am I the only who's bothered by the poorly aligned ally and clan crests in the target? They were already fixing it, why not fix it properly? 1st word problems but still ?

Just the necklace will be fine, thanks ?

Haters will say it's too oldschool to use in 2020, but here you go.

(c) is the correct one. Always one quest item, randomly to any party member in range.

The thing is, of course not everything is perfect, but right now, things simply aren't broken enough that they would need to be changed. You might have a truth in certain aspects, but the problem is that with every change you're risking that things go awry, so you end up putting resources into something that actually makes the game worse - it might, it might not. But right now, server is very healthy, the online is one of the highest it's ever been and players are having fun. If it's not broke - don't fix it!

Watch our vro, investigative journalists often end up getting yeeted once they figure out too much ⚠️

@Gambits I think you do raise some good points, but there just isn't place for these changes at this moment.

I've noticed that the timers are funky, sometimes when you're online during the time it's supposed to reset it doesn't reset at all until the next reset (works same way for daily tasks like hunting bonus). Anyway one enchant should be enough, if it doesn't work on first time then it's broken and just wait for another reset

Hmm I guess it's something new, haven't heard of this until now... I see you're one of the early birds from 2k15 - did you recieve some promo mail or did you decide to check in on your own and the message randomly popped up? They may be experimenting with some sort of 'returning hero' rewards, it would be pretty cool. Anyway welcome back, it's always good to see some old names.

Too lazy but the site looks nice from the PC browser Still tho the rest of the design (on PC version) is coolio

Nowhere seen anyone talking about it, which is a shame because it's quite well done. Just noticed the logo on the site is changed too (the reindeers and stuff), pretty neat. The event itself was kinda trash but the design is really nice, so good job on that one... That all from me ?

Dayum, not even one improved scroll? Pretty brutal. But anyways, as much as I think it's counterproductive to make events so poor that it actually discourages people from playing, it's not a big issue when the online is as good as it is now. On the other hand I think these kind of events should cease to exist at the first sign of population decreasing, because no event at all would probably do less damage. If it's so important to not give server anything of value (which is a wrong attitude btw.), then just skip the poor events and make few good ones, it would probably help the server much more.

I'm a simple man, I see a good suggestion that needs to be implemented and I bump it.
