Glad I have a life.

Holy crap, spamming the forum isn't the way to get a response. Not to mention it would require a server restart after it was fixed. Thus shutting it down for a couple of mobs wouldn't be worth while. There are many places to level at that level. It's called PATIENCE.

​BULGARIA - I will be answering you based upon the lines you left, in order. Hopefully you can understand. No you don't have to buy a second PC. That would be your decision. It's not our fault you dont have two PC's nor the ability to pay for a dual box. No, you must not grow up first to party. In fact, back in Prelude - C4 everyone partied. If you didn't, you didn't make it far. There are also these things called Raid Bosses. Oh, and the description is wrong, which it should be fixed but, 2 shots to one shot mobs. Get over it. The people they lose will be people like you, who think you are entitled to free things. Things that weren't ever present in the real Lineage 2 till after GoD or Hi5 or whenever NCShaft put in newbie buffers to make the game easier. If you understand the server is hardcore, then stop bitching. People who are used to hardcore used to pay $15+ a month to dual box. Get over it. As a matter of fact, I used to run over 18 accounts on Lineage 2. Had 3 PC's that did it it on, and that wasn't including the accounts I actually played. So, stop your whining. You can keep walking to a different server

​Well i've bad news, you know nothing about Classic and Lineage 2 (Kariks was there in C1 *facepalm*) And Lair Of Antharas is in Russian Classic, you can even see kill them in some stream (Like this video). We will get this update in Official EU at launch (Age of Splendor 2.0) and about this server maybe in few month because admin need to work on it. ​I guess I didnt realize the 8x HP Kariks in LOA were in fact 8x HP in C1. And yes, I know nothing about Classic server except for what i see here, and if you are referring to 2.0, which is I believe C2 you will still have other areas before LOA even needs to be addressed. I guess i've played an archer before and have never worried about VR?

​Why would you need VR on an archer? Does VR work in PvP? Seriously, VR on an archer? Mobs should be dead before they even get to you. ​You know about Kariks with 8x hp and stuff, right? Archer parties? SERIOUSLY?! REALLY? Do I even need to comment? Okay, I will. ​You know there are no Kariks till Interlude/Kamael? You do realize this is basically Prelude/C1? There isn't even a Lair for the Land Dragon Antharas You do know this is a CLASSIC server right? Right?

​Why would you need VR on an archer? Does VR work in PvP? Seriously, VR on an archer? Mobs should be dead before they even get to you.

​There is a difference between GoD and classic lol. GoD is a goddamn joke, you can get lvl 1 to 86 in 24 hours botting, so of course a +100% xp rate doesnt matter.. nobody plays legit on retail anyways lol. ​I wish that were true Haplo, I've played my 3 main characters legit for 11 years. That doesn't include being a small time adena farmer running 18 accounts when you could get walker for free and a free 14 day trial account

​Disadvantage? Example - Not based on truths or reality Solo mob kill 100xp Solo mob adena 10a Duo mob kill 55xp Duo mob adena 5a See the difference? Now lets go go go to level 10 at 2,000,000xp needed. Hm...

​so basically DA is the only oe viable for soloing, but not good at all in pvp?d for solo Sk or TK is better than DA. but DA stronger in 1v1 pvp if enemy is not fast running class ( knifemen and bowmen ) they are just running away too fast and you can't get them and they can't kill you. Keep thinking that.

The torrent for the Classic file wasn't working on another one of PC's, basically stated the file was corrupt. Trying to figure it out.

Well if its a server with 1 clan on server.. how can you say they are good/popular? Russia = RS, thats pretty much it ​Exactly what i meant man if you think about it.. Why would there be so many russians coming here, when there is an OFFICIAL classic server with better patch in russia? obviously it's all the rage quitters or botters/banned coming over here, so i'm not worried about them ''dominating'' this server ​Not only Rage Quit, for example i want to play on new fresh server, because Ru Classic is 1 year old, its always nice to start something new) So please stop write this bullshit about russians or zerg, or another provocation things, its not good! ​As i said, im not saying every single russian is, but 75% of the russians are. Why the hell do you think all the biggest ddos'ers, hackers, botters and the most well known are all russians? lol. Either way, there is no ''pro'' russian here, so i highly doubt there is going to be a ''russian domination'' like the OP was intending. Im talking about a ''russian majority'' if you feel attacked well.. maybe its because you're part of it lol. ​I am not offended you little kid) There is a lot of russian in lineage 2, so they make a huge number of bots, of rage quits, but they make huge number of normal players too Its like for 10 players = 2 bots, 3 Party players and 5 solor players. For example, for each 1000 players will be 700 russians and 300 international. So we have 700 russians = 140 bots, 210 party players (zerg and clans) and 350 solo players And for international that will be 300 = 60 bots, 90 (zerg and clans) and 150 solo players So, as you can se, 140 bots (russians) compared to 60 bots (international) its huge number for you, but its just statistic, there is everywhere bots and normal players and zergs. So please, stop being troll and stop act like a douchebag and try to grow up, because lineage is game for 20-30+ years old people, and its not for kids anymore) ​If you have to state you aren't offended, usually you are. So what if there are a lot of Russians in lineage 2. There used to be more "Americans" than Russians as well at some point in Lineage 2. But you don't see us dwelling on the fact that most Americans are lazy and incapable of working for anything. (I blame our handout government, but its still better than anything communistic, however, America is going that way) The "Americans" that continue to play this game are more hardcore than any Russian player has ever been or will be. They are usually the ones who played in the beta/ob/prelude and so forth. Dont even get me started on the EU players. They are more hardcore than the NA players from MY, keyword, MY Experience. They're also the ones who understand the game. So whats the point of this argument? Thanks for the math lesson above, as if we couldn't figure that out ourselves? Wait, 70-90% of stats are made up on the spot anyways claiming them to be a stat without any link to something otherwise proven. Good Game. http://www.bothsidesofthetable.com/2010/02/14/73-6-of-all-statistics-are-made-up/ But then again, even the article could be made up, statistically speaking. Haplo is far from a Troll, July versus Oct, 211 posts versus 9. Lets see who the real troll is. My 12 year old son plays on this server, so I resent the comment stating its for 20-30+ year old. I started lineage 2 when I was 19. Figure that out with your awesome math skills. Not to mention, calling someone a troll or a douchebag truly shows how much intellect is sprouting from your brains comprehensive division. Is it safe to say you are Russian and that is why you seem to be taking offense to the said commentary after the OP basically got told that BR and RUS wont deter the NA/EU players? Oh and please note, I never mentioned anything about the BR players. You know why? From what I can tell they haven't started such an asinine thread topic to draw attention upon themselves for some damn reason. Oh, to try and start an online forum war? Good Game BR's, you've just beat the RU's IMHO.

I would test, but I can't download the torrent using utorrent, says the file is basically corrupt...

Its classic "Retail" esque server. If on retail classic death penalty is -10%. You do that. If its 10% at level 50+ it wont be 10%... It's 10% based upon the level if I remember or know correctly. If not, then I'm wrong and Ill stand for correction.

I got into a cata the other day, fell through the ground. Had to SoE out. No teleport to get into it either, but was at front gate.

​Ignorance is bliss and this thread just screams blissful moment. Careful though, people might play the game it was meant to be played by pk'ing, buffing, healing mobs...shit...or stunning a player. Lineage 2 was designed for people not faint of heart. To the original poster, whatever your name is and I am literally too lazy to scroll up through all your nonsense to find it. That's what Lineage 2 is and that is how it was designed. It wasn't until the new generation of WoW fanatics did the game get ruined and changed to curb the appetite for EU/NA people. To make it easier for the crybabies that still exist and complain about how "hard" it is on non classic retail servers. Bring it on...

Im around as well, for the time being. With this low of a population and it being beta, I wouldn't expect there to be to much activity as of yet. There is always some dwarf though selling DSS/DBsps, I am waiting for them to upgrade to C...lol...

Virus has to do with changing host file I believe. Norton sucks anyways, follow what Banish3d said...

There is a saying in my country, something like "Don't say 'hop' until you jump" or "until you land safely ". EDIT: "Don't count your chicken untill the eggs hatch" is the english version. I'd suggest you try that again, but without soulshots and with novice weapon (or something really cheap, like a grade and a half below your level). Sett, I'd suggest you stop suggesting, lol, no one will listen until it happens. ​First of all, Orcs didnt truly start showing up until around C3. Simply because they were one of the worst character types to level. At least for L2 NA. What Sett was trying to say, was when you hit level 25, make sure you are using a 50K NG weapon and maybe a wooden set, maximum of a bronze. With only self buffs, then go level wherever you were. All the orcs I see running around now are twinks. Meaning they are being buffed by higher level buffers and have store bought top grade D. ​Oh, sorry im not an expert at trying to figure out what's typed with google translate, his post was kinda confusing lol. And yeah orcs never were popular simply because they are not really good in mass pvp (and mass pvp was a huge part of L2 back then to get control of a zone or a room), and simply because archers/mages party always were the best for both when it comes to pve+pvp put together. melees were too easily killed in mass pvp by any range assisting each other. but to say destro is bad for exping? you're completly out of your mind, im not saying it's the best, im saying for a MELEE character its pretty decent. And about C3, i dont know what server you played on, but i would see a ton of orc players even before C3, atleast on Lionna and Bartz there were alot of them. ​I dont remember seeing much of anything on Lionna while I was in Cruma. It was always, daggers, BD, DA, PP, SE. When I moved to Erica there were more there, but that was around C4 if memory serves correct. After playing on Lionna, Erica, Franz, Hinde, Chronos I've forgotten a lot. 10 years is a long time. LOL I think Teon was in there momentarily alone with Bartz...

​Hello San0, What Nevax and myself are trying to point out is that the players that are coming to see the server, should benefit from a POSITIVE experience, not a negative one... a lot of people left the server due to the roll-back, and a lot of new player were discouraged. The main idea is that as long as it is an open beta, there should be an active GM online most of the time, to be able to support new-commers and also support the veterans by offering them the full experience of what the server is going to be when it is launched. I am more than sure that is not hard to do... Best Regards Defiance ​people that dont have time to read annuncements and the forums are not going to stay here in the server when live, why? Beta server is running with x50 rates x100 adena, or maybe more, live server x3, if they leave for 1 day roll back at beta ... be sure they wont stay playing at a 16-33 times harder server than the actual. ​There isn't any possibility that the current rates are anywhere near where you have stated. Based on Prelude L2 or Classic L2 from RU/KR, especially considering the fact that it's boosted 3x on RU from current L2. Current L2 you can't even kill a single mob and level past level 1. To go from level 1 to level 4 is around at most, maybe 10x. Which technically would be around 9x, if this is at 3x times the normal RU Classic. Adena, I wouldn't be sitting at 500K at level 26 with a wooden set and cestus ? with a dwarf (keeping mats) if it was 100x adena either. Now moving on past your exuberant rate amount I reiterate the original message that I was trying to convey from the start which Vedy tried to convey as well. We weren't looking for compensation, we know where to look on the forum and in the game to notice that it is beta. He states hes a Quality control game tester, which I wont doubt, I have no reason to. I almost have a degree as a Game Designer, but someone like him would have a little bit more knowledge on such things of what happens to players when a "BETA" is in order without information that is in plain view. Age has nothing to do with understanding what Vedy and myself were trying to state. It goes back to the simple fact that most people, whether they stay here or not, will not pay attention to simple things. It's a private server, they have no real commitment here, EVER. It doesn't cost anything to play and if it doesn't work, why on earth would they come back? That's as basic as the question gets and that's what we were trying to convey. The people that dont come back aren't necessarily going to be the players you don't want here either. Honestly, I almost didn't come back to test it out more simply because of it and the warm welcome of "get over it". But I did, for the simple fact that I want to see what happens when the server goes live. I've been playing L2 since NA OB, on and off of course and i've honestly been looking for a server that is like this, but if new players will be welcomed with a "it's beta, what do you expect" attitude. I can promise you, the work the scripters/programmers/admins have put forth, wont matter. Your time will have been wasted. This has nothing to do with compensation or thinking I am an amazing L2 player. It has everything to do with the longevity of the server and keeping this place a place people want to go to. I'm sorry to say it, but those of you that have been here testing and playing for a long period of time, should be more accepting of seeing new people post. These are potential PK's, PVP, Sieges or maybe even potential guild mates on this PS. Instead of stating that the new players need to get over themselves, why not get over yourselves and understand that not everyone is a forum god?

​Nothing to cry about, someone asked a question. ​Well, for me it looked like complains thru tears that every1 is bad around but u, potential investor They are working for you, and they are swapping for a better machine for you, me and others. And you are blaming them for smth they didnt, but they actually did. Mb not in a way u expected, but as for me, who is working with ppl every day, its impossible to chew and put info into all ppls mouths. Some still should turn their brain sometimes, im about today's wipe. (im saying it in general, not directly to any1 from this topic). And tho, not getting any more comments from TS, i still believe he was sure hes on live server. And it makes me a bit sad. Because for me, you, playing on beta, easier to loose wtv we got with or without warning then for him, thinking he is actually playing live. And i would ask admins to give him his lost items and lvls back ​Yes, I realize now it came off that way. I was trying to generalize and sometimes I forget how I come off as well. Then I write posts like this that make it look like im trying to cover myself. Anyways, The sad thing is, is everything I mentioned I did see in-game, out of game, and I presented it in a fashion where it came off as I did not. Thank you for calling me on it as I truly was looking for the best interest of this server.

Honestly, ​ It doesn't really matter. Next time I'll send it in a private message to you San0. I was just trying to iterate how it could come off to someone who doesn't understand certain aspects to the forum/game. ​Nothing to cry about, someone asked a question.

​It's a new member? It's not a test server, it's a beta server. Test server would be more restricted to who could join in a game design world as it would be limited to the scripters/programmers. It's beta, to build a strong community there needs to be a community. You carry asinine commentary, nice to meet you.

​Don't care about the wipe, just was curious as to why all my account information was wiped as well. Didn't realize it would wipe the total account creation. Make sense?

​If it weren't for beta testers, including yourself, which you technically made fun of yourself by your commentary. Are a key factor to making sure this works. People who enjoy something usually take it seriously.
