  1. ​QFT But i find it seriously difficult to believe there are people who can't learn things like WTB, WTS, LFP... It's not about language, it's about communication. There will always be more people who understand english, than those who understand some er ... local languege.
  2. ​Does mental shield work in classic like used to in old cronicles (80% resist on top of everything else)? Because if it does, then there are no roots and no sleeps to worry about. Slows always worked against any melee though.
  3. ​You are naive like a child. Expect more. Russian will always write in their own language. They do not fix anyone. People from all over the world play here, yet you only see english, russian and sometimes spanish in shout. What does that tell you? But yeah, no, there will be no chat restriction, with the possible exception of vulgarisms, which can't really be enforced anyways...
  4. ​tanks: depends on healer. TK/SK has better defense, but less health. On lower levels/classic, defense is probably more important though. buffers: poor EE's =( summoners: meh...
  5. Probably another instance of the infamous CacheSizeMegs=32 NCsoft fail. Open your Lineage\system\options.ini in notepad and add to the end of file this: [Engine.GameEngine] CacheSizeMegs=256and save (be careful not to save as options.ini.txt, only options.ini). That should fix most of L2's performance issues. Edit: obviously: backup first
  6. Also the drop table is not as simple as item X = chance Y, Instead there are only a couple of groups of items, which are checked together, with single "roll" - note that several items often have the same chance to drop. This usually means they are in the same group. When a group (one or more) is selected a random item from that group is dropped or subgroup from that group is selected, which is then checked again etc. This is done so, because calculating percentage rolls for every possible drop for every killed monster would put a ridiculous amount of load on the server, making it very expensive, if not outright impossible, while picking a random number is much easier process. The drop process is actually quite similar to what Diablo II uses. There are several guides that describe that process in great detail, so anyone can educate themselves if so inclined
  7. This has been discused on any serious non-1 rate server ever. I'm not sure if it was actually implemented properly somewhere, but where it didn't,..., nothing really happened. Just prices were different. Yes, it puts dwarves at a disadvantage, no, it apparently isn't that easy to fix. By the way, is Classic drop table similar to the original? i don't think so (since i got some mold glue from monster lvl 14 or so), But if it is, you don't have to worry about it, because we will actually have C1x0,5 rate here - 3*Classic = 3*1/6 = 3/6 = 1/2.
  8. Tanks: PVE:DA, raids, and, you know, tanking: pala, personal love: SK Archers: Hawkeye. They have so many advantages compared to elves, it's not even funny Daggers: TH, same situation, same reasons Mages: PvE: SH, necro if he is decidedly rich (or high rate private), PvP:Necro, SpS against all those necros (but archers are probably a lot better) Buffer/healer: if i had to pick one and only one, it would be EE (does he have major heal in classic?). SE is the most versatile in PvE, but has limited use in PvP. PP is godsend for archers. or parties with healer, same for WC. OL and bishops are ... Most frustrating and most rewarding, but not until sieges/big bosses become available.. Summoners: Warlock, because of queen's blessing. They're not bad at all, but they don't really fit much

    Android client

    Where do you guy stand about supporting this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.friq.lineage_hff ?
  10. Ho wdo you edit systemmsg-e.dat? When decoded it has some nonstandart separator (as in: not end of the line) making it rather hard to read in notepad, let alone modify and save...
  11. Seeing as i know next to nothing about Classic i wonder what the FOTM is ... so i can play something else. Actually i'm playing with my wife, so the question really is what is a good duo. I want something that fits well into parties, but maybe is not entirelly dependent on them. Maybe BD/SwS or warlock. But the game and more importantly players are so much different form what i'm used to... So how are things done in Classic? How do people farm? What do they do? What about raids? Epics? Is e.g. nuker + se/ee even viable in classic? So far it seems everyone is playing mages, but still? Help!

    bots

    Gullible people always asking about IP restrictions... There arentire e city districts and villages that share the same IP in my country. Right now i'm typing from network of a billion eur mining company that has all traffic directed through one proxy with one IP. Hell, our admins even had a little chat with Google's representatives about the amount of traffic we generate. Not that i intend to play from here, but the point is: no sane admin restricts anything (anything open to public) by IP, by default., you and your roomate are fine. It will most likely be a check of running software on your PC. If it sees L2, it won't let you launch it again...but much more complicated than that.

    CZ/SK clan

    Tak bysme se se ženou taky rádi přidali (na fb už jsme). Očekávat nás můžete tak 2-3 hodinky v prime timu a o většině víkendů. Co budem hrát? Kdo ví. Já se nemůžu rozhodnout, a žena je v tom nová. Když bude zájem, asi se dá hrát cokoliv bude potřeba...
  14. If you don't PM them, they won't know. This is afaik to prevent scamming, as if you try to lend you equipment to your 60+ friend clanmate "Hammer" but a newbie smurf called "Hannner" send you trade invite instead. Yeah, i totally agree, that anyone careless enough to fall for that deserves to be robbed, But it will still be easier for everyone if it didn't happen in the first place, so here it is, a little spoiler in private chat, and a little larget in trade window (try it and see). Also: correct me if i'm wrong, but this is not just classic specific, is it?
  15. All right, that should teach me to express myself better. I completely agree with you guys, (though i still think there was nothing wrong with the game up untill IL). The question is not "why classic" as in "why the good old hardcore", I want that back too. The question i tried to ask is this: Why bother undoing whatever NC f*cked up since [insertchonicle], when we could easily run that chronicle instead? It's like trying to remaster that Novaspace's Our beds Are Burning crap remix to extract the original Midnigh Oil behind all of it. You know, it might be somewhat possible, but why bother? It's just not the same... And more the the point the server is not the same, the game is not the same. I know this is just beta, but I've seen more deviations from what i'd expect from a server called "Classic" here in a week than I've seen on all decent private servers of the time combined... I appreciate the work, but i also see a lot more work tyhat needs to be done before that "classic" name will be truly deserved, and i just think there might be an easier way, is alll... Then again i'm not exactly sure what expectations the DEVs have, so...

    Free teleports

    In the spirit of social/mutliplayer aspect of this game i wouch for limited starting towns teleportation. Just to get the party started ... literally. But no more. I'd also suggest the easiest implementation of this would probably be 1 or 2 free teleport tokens for new characters from the "gatekeeper's request" quest.
  17. Damn, my favorite pet =)
  18. No, i don't want to defend what Koreans did to Lineage, quite the opposite. You see, once upon a time, there was Interlude. Official and working and loved and hated equally by all. There were even private servers based on C4 that emulated Intelude somewhat well. Then there was five years of fall from grace. Lineage moved somewhere, and then, all of a sudden we wanna go back. But. Instead of actually going back, we take what we have now, and try to rebuild the past, more or less from scratch. Why? Wouldn!t it be easier to just launch Interlude or C4 server?
  19. PK removal scrolls? Is that a thing? I'm pretty sure it wasn't back in Interlude ... or whatever Classic is purported to bring back.
