That would also be cool, but it wouldn't be possible in it's current state where everyone can set limitless ammount of offline shops which last until restart. I think a nice combination would be disabling the Giran Harbor completely and make the MDT as whole the offline ticket zone, alongside with it's soft rework - the offline ticket would be bought like a premium acc for certain ammount of time - 1 day / 7 days / 30 days. This way the market would automatically turn MDT into a premium zone and regular shops would remain in towns where they belong

I was like what, hero blunt gives evasion now? Got me for good 10 seconds

Good stuff, a topic to link whenever some newbie asks 'how much onlinko'

Afronus better healerko tho

I'm playing on fairly weak machine and from my own experience, it's not really and issue until about a minute in you stand and wait for the shops to load.

The water zones in Giran aren't really an issue because iirc there's no spawning point near them - but most importantly they're mighty far from GK port, which can't be said in Giran Harbor. As for the CHs, similar thing - none of the halls are close enough to the high stress zones so you don't have to worry about performance drops there either. Buying talies, luxury, groceries etc. are just another cases for Giran Town, since these are supposed to be in the main trading zone. And again - just passing through high stress area doesn't cause any significant performance issues - you don't have to just believe me; just TP to Giran Harbor and run to the northern gate, and see how many shops you load. Now imagine they don't have the pesky animation icon and there goes your answer. But yes, as far as the comfort goes, Giran Harbor is a clear winner. But the real question is - do we really want comfortable custom features?

Cute, I like how at 0:06 he shows the guy where to shave

Pretty sure I've replied before, but it's a dull argument - shops have been in Giran since always and nobody has complained because it's just the way the game is. Of course it would be less comfortable, but same way I can say I don't like getting 0,00% per mob, so why don't we make botting legal? Also as for the performance issues - the TP port times are completely unaffected as the shops don't start loading until you TP, and your fps are barely affected as well since if you just run through, you do not load enough shops to make it a relevant issue. I'll probably repeat myself but over the past XY years we've been playing L2 we all have played on numerous of different servers (which 99% of them had trading center in Giran), and we all have been through sieges, and we all had much worse machines back then, and we all lived

well glad to hear the things are moving there at least... As for the Giran Town... Well the main objection was that custom trading zone is anti-classic, but nevermind that for now, right now the offline animation and fishers out of GH will do

I will, at least until it changes, because it's cancer. /care I have SSD myself but it's simply not case for everyone just yet. But the issue is about principle really - why should roughly half of the people with HDD (according to the stats above) along with everyone with weaker PCs suffer just because admins are too lazy to change the offline shop indication from sleep animation to grey nickname or whatever? I mean if someone tried hard he could find a reason to have fishers in trading zone, but there's literally no case for having this lagging offline shop animation. You didn't read my post, but no hard feelings, after 2,5 years I've been here I wouldn't read my posts either. So I'll be brief - I kinda gave up on the idea of having Giran Town the trading center (mostly because things aren't really moving around here). BUT what I suggest now, and most people agree with, is that you guys change the offline shop indicator from sleep animation -> grey nickname and remove the fishing zone from Giran Harbor.

Some people say the best part of this game are the castle sieges or olympiad or whatever. Well, they're wrong. The best part of this game is when you move to our beautiful Giran Harbor, and you can go make a coffee before the shops even load. If you don't drink coffee then you're at no loss either because you can enjoy pentafijillion fishers being loaded before your shops, with their pets as a priority. And who doesn't want to watch people bot fish, right? But the best part is yet to come - because admins wisefully decided to keep that beautiful sleep animation as offline indicator, you get an amazing cinematic which turns into a borderline slideshow when you accidentaly move your camera to a broader horizon. But that's still not all, can anything really beat that moment when you wait 5 minutes for shops to load, then decide to buy something and then another shop loads with a lower price of what you wanted? PRICELESS! It's all around amazing experience, so thank you admins for doing absolutely nothing about it, because such treasure should be saved for future generations as a deterrent example.

Try this, it's about Russian female aviators during WW2, but it can make even buying health pots in grocery store look absolutely epic. EXPLOSIVE VIOLENCE!

Not rogue myself but evas could really use some update

Well they tried to make the event of some sort on Facebook, but that's probably the only site I'd never participate in such thing because 95% of my contacts are either classmates or people from work, and I don't want to float their feed with this kind of stuff... I know the purpose is that I make more people aware of the server, but this is the kind of idea which only looks good on paper, which is why it had such a low participation (and they've probably canceled it already). But yeah I agree that we could use a broader spectrum of events... One for all, I really miss the good old quiz events - GM simply asks questions of any kind in announcements (L2 knowledge, history, math etc.) and whoever replies first gets a little reward. Simple but fun as hell.

Best hip-hop album of 2013 imo

But tbh ROA actually is really f-ing awesome on him

Someone somewhere is taking a good screenshot of the topic title only to drop a roast of the history once (if) you lose it

DPS Taric is sucks now, I used to play him before update on top and it was OP. But I'd say now he's even more fun sometimes - I like to get RoA on him as soon as possible, because it gives you nearly infinite mana, great survivability and most importantly insane healing bonus from both extra HP and AP... That feeling when enemy throws everything they have at your team and they're at half HP because you literally can't stop healing them

@San0 @Kse might be a good time to add more accessories to the shop... There's roughly 87 million accessories and we have like 5 available... Not even glasses of any kind

Few weeks ago I've leveled my old trade char for giggles, andd I've gone from around ~30 to current 48 in no time doing basically nothing but raiding. You're right that most people sit at 50+, but from my fairly short experience, I can say it's decently populated even at lower levels. But it's all about expectations - you can't expect to log in in the morning and find a party within 5 minutes. It always takes a while and sometimes you have to start a party yourself if you want things to move. Also you can't really expect any PvP on pre-40. When it takes few days to reach 50 it's just impossible to accumulate people at low levels. It can't really be helped by choosing a different Classic server either, because few weeks into the server run the pre-40 simply go 'empty' regardless of how many people play there. Pre-40 on Classic is basically same thing as pre-80 on High Five, it's mostly just a filler. I think as far as the european Classic projects go, I believe this is the largest one. Classic chronicle isn't for everyone, but unless you know Russian well, I believe Classic Club is the best option right now.

Right in your profile url: http://l2classic.club/forum/profile/402-chevignon/ "402-chevignon"... Also OG ?

Definitely interested in such artifact, but the stream is in bad timeroni for me, I'm sleeping like a baby at that time

Still though, nice to see him checking by... Keeping fingers crossed he recognizes quality and comes back, OG's are scarce on this server, so many newbies around
