    your just a butthurt crybaby who wants to farm in peace with no compition

    ​Well, i have no problem with fighting on comparable terms. But a warlord (warrior) party has very little chance agains mages, never mind "fighting" against morons, whose inferior temporal gyrus (that's the part of brain responsible for numbers) athrophed to the points where they believe fighting and arguing for twenty minutes over two monsters from "their spot" (half of Orc barracks) in my train is worth their time.

    And before someone points out the obvious: No, It's not the same the other way around. I couldn't farm in peace, because morons harrass with stun and agroing/killing my trains, while I'm the nice guy who minds his own business and the worst thing I do to anyone (prior to their aggression) is pull some mobs that were standing there unattended. The result is they could've easily farmed in peace alongside, while I actually have nothing better to do, than to reciprocate.

    ...Or go elsewhere, but come on, would you?

     

    What really pisses me off is ... it pisses me off. And then I start acting like a person 20 years younger, than I actually am. :/

     Fo fu.. sake i dont even see much partys... most of the people grind their way solo.

    ​Dude, are we playing on the same server? Everywhere i go, ten second after I pull more than 2 monsters, a dwarf spawns with 3 mage minions and stuns me, until my party clears out the mobs. Then we flame for a bit, then we TP elsewhere, because reasons (and morons).

    Also I'm sure it's all those soloers, who keep on complaining about party size.

    People already report bots a lot, the problem is admins not banning them, or atleast ''choosing who they ban, and who they dont''

    ​I, for one, don't. Well, not unless it's strikingly obvious.

    TBH I don't really care so much as to investigate myself, and rather than wasting GM's time on false accusations, I let it pass. If they really bot, I'm sure someone else wil find them and cry loud enough for the staff to hear. But a coin or two (or 7/9, as the case may usually be) might just be the incentive for me to invest a little time.

    Battle prophet? Just how rich are you? Rest asured that you will be very much glad wind strike still sometimes does half damage on monsters ~25lvl, and that you are a class that is not expected to produce significant DPS.

    To be of any use in melee right clicks, you need a good weapon and a decent armor. You will most likely not have either (relatively to your level) until late 50's.

    My 2 cents:

    1) Instead of waiting, doing nothing and reading moronic shouts of other players for 20 effing minutes, you could've just said "Make a macro and be ther at 8:30.

    2) please, PLEASE, for the love of god, post changelogs for client updates. Finding out which modified files I can use from previous versions and which not is a chore I'll gladly skip the next time around...

    Other than that: thanks for the effort you put into events, it's a welcome break ;)

    ​is there any reliable way to exp rather than leech? :D

    ​AoE somewhere else, where monsters are the same level as was the level at which you acquired your last AoE skills. Ant nest maybe.

    Any help on how to lvl with a Dark elf knight lv 20?

    ​Farm with sting, if you can't get AoE party, but you should be able to get it quite easily (aggression is necessary to pull trains of anything faster than a Porta).

    As for location, until you get agro, NE of Gludio should work

    2) To 1-shot anyone is unacceptable for a any class.

    ​Corrected.

    I dare you to name more than a few mainstream rpg's, where rogues consistenly win 1v1 fights.

    If a mage hits you three times before you get to him, you are doing something wrong. Like fighting solo with a fragile melee char.

    Also if you have half-decent jewellry, mages in devotion should not be that hard to kill even with nerfed blow damage.

    The other points are quite correct though.

    As a shaman you should always head for a Mage AoE group. With  24 head for a fortress of resistance group. With 26+ head for an Orc barracks group. Stay there till youre fit for Cruma. 

    ​The problem here is Orcs aren't any more fit for Cruma on lvl 39, than they are on lvl 20 ... or 1 (except acumen, but that's hardly enough to call them fit....). Even after 2nd cc, the debuffs will still only land reliably on Portas, but not Krators. Of course most people will neither know, nor notice, and 2 or 3 mages 35+ hardly need any help at all, so you can just tag along and leech.

    While the form of that post is retarded, the content is somewhat true.

    One would think after ten years people would know spoil doesn't ... spoil anything.

    Then again if you talk about the much more common situation, where a random dwarf comes to your train without asking, spoils it, then starts hitting it, then tries to pickup your look, all the while being a constant threat of instagibbing your tank, for more loot, then yes, people don't like those for a reason.

    ​Well there are several problems. When a server's business starts to dwindle, some administration becomes tempted to break their own rules - they all people to "donate" for items. Not accusing this administration of doing so or likely to do so, just see how some servers have ended. On top of this issue, coupled with the issue brought up in another thread about the topic, there is the issue with RMT/CoL/trading that will ruin the market. How you ask? CoL becomes the dominate currency and deludes other forms of currency in the game (IE adena and materials). The only way to counter this issue is to prolong the release of content so that the average player, not abusing the abundance of CoL, catches up, farms, and crafts comparable equipment to a CoL'er.

    Now before you even attempt to bring up the stun resist comment, equip not giving an advantage, etc. This is very much true. However, in past server's demise we see that the ones that pay to win or get ahead of the curve aren't exclusive or soloist. They instead tend to group together, run the same clan, and circles. So they will have control over giran/aden first and hold it for awhile until the server levels out (see above about the equipment curve and prolonging content to allow the server to catch up).

    I find it sad that most people either speak without private server knowledge about this issue, or even worse, know what typically happens on private servers with "donations" that are trade-able. People aren't reinventing the wheel here, nor are they doing something different. History repeats itself and will continue to do so.  

    ​Like I said, I played on a few servers, where some players had advantages well beyound anything you could get legitimately in the game.

    Like you said, they had an advantage, until the server coughts up. ...and? It's the ultimate goal, ultimate victory, to defeat those who took shotcuts, who always had the advantage and don!t know how fight in equal terms. It is a curse, just as much as it is a blessing. And with great power comes great opposition.

    The end of the servers where I played actually came when these people coul no longer win consistenly, even with all of their donate, and they left.

    I also wouldn't worry about getting additional content "too fast"...

    As for CoL purchases, aside from death certificates and Blessed Scrolls of Resurrection, everything else can be obtained without CoLs as well, I don't see why it would break economy any more than, say, ancient adena. It certainly will not be worse, than simply too much adena on the market of most low-mid rate servers.

     

    That all being said: make on mistake, this is a private server, and it will not last forever.

    I already find it kind of interesting that there is only ONE thread about this subject alive right now, imho it should be 1000000 threads.

    You got it all mixed up bro.

    There IS a milion of threads on this topic, what we actually need is to get rid of the 999 999 others, so people, including the staff, know where to look, should something usefull on the topic appear, instead of skipping all those threads, because they honestly didn't bring anything new since June.

    Well tried dagger in BETA. Was true piece of sh*t ... 52 lvl backstab dealth 1.6k dmg to dark blue monster (tamlin orc archer) ... Don't know about them here... But since admin said that thy will do later in future some balancing stuff for classes I keep my faith in dagger classes and took Dark elven one... If they still will suck at least I can go +wit dyes and make a hexer poisoner and range unit to harrass destro ant tank classes muahahah ^^

    I never complained about dagger beeing weak i just asked 4 an informed opinion of later game dagger (not land rate from front etc at lvl 20) because trying out 4 myself and rerolling later on isn't quite an option. Dunno how they are at later stages was just curious if u can BS robe same level with 2 backstabs max (if u need more than that smth is wrong in my opinion) on this server not in gran kain etc...in the end didn't go 4 a dagger class cause i always had the option to go archer at 40...and i would end up playing that which is boring 4 me at least...

    ​Just farm/pvp with mortal strike and see for yourself.

    Daggers are pretty much what they used to be in C4-IL, that is, their weakest period, while most other classes got at least some of the goodies from later updates, e.g. arrest.

    Also get ready for 90% land rate of root, stun, slows, you name it....

    with yours stupid logic you can kill someone then disconect and server will not save yours PK ? i dont know where you play man, but from i remeber all chronicles you can log in 10-20 min from duscinect and you still was flaged if you get DC.... so think what will be on mass pvp ? all clan will relog and will be in non combat mode ? and can regen heal self  and repeat fight with other clan on spot who will be still flaged ? stop say shits like this

    ​With "his stupid logic" he can not, it's yoiu who doesn't understand.

    You can log on your account from another client and get disconnected immediately (the login process takes about a second, actually). But the server saves everything. Well, except purple flag, that was never the case, except maybe some early L2J.

    Hi,

    I hava a question - is here someone who play L2 on mobile Internet? How much data L2 takes per 1 hour play? 

    Thx for answers, greets :)

    ​i play at work with a mobile stick.

    works pretty well.

    i cant tell u how much data it uses exactly but i have 5gb traffic/month and i never need all (including surfing on facebook etc)

    ​I played on mobile connection in 2008. Back then it meant unlimited FUP, but GPRS connection, so i doubt it would generate too much bandwidth...

    I use http://synergy-project.org/ to control second char on my old laptop. You just slide to the other screen and work there, then slide back and so forth. It's even better than dual box because the clients don't have to split resources. But you need two computers, obviously.

    ​i think thats called 3th party software and forbidden

    ​Technically that would be correct, but i can still only control one computer at a time, the other does nothing in the mean time.

    It's basically a software alternative to hardware switch ... with much more elegant switching. The downside is it lags sometimes (e.g. when one of the computers is loading).
