Wouldn't it be awesome to, at the docks (anywhere), you can rent a boat? There would be boats lined up on the shore, and you would have say 30 minutes on it. You could row it and move on the boat, and fish. During the whole thing, there is a timer that appears that notifys you how much longer you have. When 30 minutes is up, it fades out and you appear back on the shore. If you want, you can also just end early by clicking an End button. Lets say for 30 minutes a row boat would cost...50,000-100,000 adena?
This idea brings up another idea, too.
Rent-a-pole? For a fee of around maybe 20,000 you can rent a basic fishing pole. You can use this in the row boat, or off a dock or anywhere.
I have accually thought of that.. .and there could be private boats for clans etc. After C4 people just ran out of ideas XD but this would be a great thing to see
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Warsmiths should be able to make boats! and then instead of flame wars we can go out on ships and wrestle each other into the water! (or put flame weapon on ships, then we just burn each other)
Yeah...craft a rowboat using 50k stems and 5k braided hemp. Then larger boats would need components (skif with sail needs 2 small masts at 70k stem each and one sail at 20k metallic fibre plus 5k steel plus one rowboat).
FYI, you can step into some of the small boats on the Floran pond and fish from them, but you cannot move them.
In addition, I'd like to have my own pirate ship.
I mean, there are pirates in the world of L2. We have the pirate eye patches, after all. :)
...and the pirate tunnel! and wasnt zakken a pirate?...pirate ships would rock, especially around heine where people would be fishing...and maybe you could steal their fish if your ship flagged and you archered/nuked/boarded their boat? black sails ftw.
well the point wouldnt be to nuke the otehr boat (i mean, if you want to sure), but to board their boat, and steal the fish. no melee = enemy ship sunk = no fish for u.
Nukers wouldnt have to sink it. After a certain amount of damage it cant move for say...4-6 min (imagine it like you have damaged the main sail, mast, or whatever), your ship pulls up beside it, then you board it, *after one ship boards another, neither ship can move until the fight ends. Fight till the death or unless either captain surrenders. If the invading ship's crew wins then they get the "treasure" (fish, adena, whatever). If the defending ship wins then each of the invaders lose 5% exp, and cant use a ship for like 2 hours.
i dont agree on ship pvp... first of all it will bring loads of lag to players with not so good comps and then remember - there is no gun powder in lineage2 so how will the boat shoot? anyways battles in boats will get off the story line for lineage in my opinion... i just wouldnt like to see them in the caotic chronicles (rumors that C5 will be the last chronicle?) Boats should be only used for travelling - like striders and wyverns. prolly for fishing on them - yes. the boats should be kept scarce and rare though. clans that have castles/clan halls should have a boat and in the permissions window in clan menu it should be a "right" to ride the clan boat for an X amount of time (ex: right to change title/crest or enter clan halls etc.) So NO craft... too many boats would be going around and it would be a bit out of the game background.
I like this idea alot! Maybe if you own a boat, you can charge people to use it. It would be a good way to make some extra adena, and it would help people who want to get somwhere without waiting for 20 Mins for the town boat to arrive. Also, the boat should be able to dock anywhere on the map, not just in town harbors. People should be able to steal your boat if you leave it unattended for a perriod of time.
Maybe this could even start a whole new race?? Possibly a "Captin"? Maybe he can Make/Sell/Rent Out boats, and have superior fishing skills?
