Stay tuned to the official message board for more events celebrating Lineage II in the month of April!
yes i know, ive been playing since prelude.
Il start my preemptive complaint about this event
1. sux for those of us thats been raiding core and queen on our subs for these rings
2. haha what do you mean sux for us? you got a 1/10000000 chance to get it thanks to all those worthless buff scrolls youll be getting instead!
3. has the bugg been fixed where you can get a ton of letters at once like last time =_=?
No no this is much too authentic to be a april fools joke. Last years april fools joke was much more noticable and sadenning.
If Im not mistaken it had something to do with taxes taken on the amount of xp you received from a mob and you needed to collect tax forms in order to lower the % of xp removed.
All in all I love the L2Day event it kicks ***.. gonna be playing 5 days straight and im gonna change my name to yingwon37575
would of been nicer for me if it had started on monday, since its been raining nonstop since then and i bet on thursday the sun will come out and i will be compelled to go outside. Oh well.
I agree Rumpunch lol. First they complain about not having events.
then NC gives us a very good event in which everyone can make money and good items and they still complain. Ahhh <3 the drama that is L2
I was brought up to respect and charish everything that was given to me. So if my mother told me I was getting a dog I waited patiently till I got it. If it ended up being a dog I didn't like I didn't say no take it back I still took care of it and kept it. Why cause it's the though of giving that counts ;)
Bring back the Medal Quest, it was the only quest i've seen that rewarded you for participating. You collect the medals and exchange them for the prize YOU want not what the GAME decides you will get.
It also allows those of us unable to raid Lilith and Antharas etc a chance to get A Grade SA Crystals.
Do the right thing and change the Event :) Your public will love you for it.
It looks fun, what is with all the moany people at the start of the thread? :confused:
People will moan for everything.
Now, before the event started it's "It's a recycled event" "only for farmers"
And after it will be "the event gave Scrolls of enchants, the castle lords can't make money" "the economy, think about the economy".
Shhesh, whinners...
umm... ncsoft is createing something that makes castles like gludio, inadril, and oren worthless. The only money that u can make there is from manner and enchants... there are no taxes to speak of... it is a legitimate complaint and events that give away enchant scrolls screw castle owning clans a lot. They really do, and just because you don't seem to understand this doesn't make it not true.
There are plenty of things they could give away instead of enchant scrolls. Hell if they made them blessed enchants it wouldn't hurt the castles as much.

Again, [puff puff pass]
If you can't make money owning a castle even during an event like this, you are doing something very wrong, and should give up your castle to someone that can run it better. Any future argument about castle owners getting the shaft will fall on many deaf ears. Kthx.
u think the market is fine? I still have tons of ench a/w scrolls, and I know people who have a lot more than me. THe fact is echant prices are screwed up. I have no problems with haveing an event, but there is no reason that they need to have enchant scrolls as rewards. It is just makeing them more and more worthless.

Worthless to you. Not the majority of the players. You know, the non-castle owning ones? Cry some more and I'll gladly collect my scrolls.
each mercenary costs 100k or so... walls and doors need to be upgraded. If you lose the castle and need to take it back, that is 1m per clan for flags. Not to mention if u need to summon a siege golem. The entire clan is useing ss/sps, ghp, cp pots, qhp, rez scrolls, acumen pots, ww pots, and greater haste pots. Defending and owning a castle is a costly thing. Y shouldn't castle owners be able to make money back? Taxes for castle that i previously mentioned are small if anything. There is no reason to screw people over who have worked hard to conquer and keep a castle.
enchants used to be really costy. Then came alot of events giving enchants making them cheaper. I think NCSoft is doing this for a reason, maybe cause enchants was never planned to be a very expensive item?

Thats what I said, the market is just fine.
Here is a hint
Enchant armor/weapon scrolls can be used to enchant things, then you sell the crystals or OE'd weapon/armor for $$$$ rinse and repeat.
I live in the twilight zone. Now I know for sure I should have reacted to the event-popularity poll they did a bit back and voted for the medal event. :)
Ooh well, guess I will hope on my lowby toon and do some hunting :p
Any event is better then no event, yes?
Carry on :D

sir e... y does it have to be enchant scrolls?
Why not? I need them just like the next guy. Because I don't own a castle I should have to pay huge prices for them? BS. EVERYONE uses enchant scrolls. If it were anything else, people would [censored] about that as well.

make it dyes, recipies, mats... there are a lot of things that people need besides enchant scrolls. When the market still hasn't stabilised from the pumpkin event there is no reason to flood the market with more of the same thing.
It would be lovely if soul crystals of stage 11-13 got added as rewards. With the explosion of A-grade lately, it's still fairly difficult to get a raid in to level them.

What's the big deal? People are talking about how easily they came up with 1 billion adena for a clan hall. Certainly you're smart enough to afford your castle. I suppose you do all you can to help the lower levels out there in the mean time, right? :rollseyes:
I lost any and all respect for castle owners when they trained raid bosses from an event onto their castle grounds and invited everyone to come and fight it and locked the doors. Then, when it died, they booted everyone from the grounds and collected all the loot. Yeah, poor poor castle owners. That's how they help the community.

well my clan doesn't really have low lvls it... and we do raids as much as we can, but have been fighting a war lately which cuts into raiding...
as for the castle lord doing that... that's pretty low. A clan on bartz did it, and another clan went to war with them over it. The clan that did it lost their castle and eventually disbanded... because people who do that are -_-. To say that all castlelords do that is just stupid, and you should know better.

Thanks, I have plenty more.
I also give free advice to castle owners during events like this so they can make money.
NCsoft has given us an event, regardless of what type of event it is I am glad they gave it to us. I give them 5 stars for it, and thank them.
I suppose you do all you can to help the lower levels out there in the mean time, right? :rollseyes:
well my clan doesn't really have low lvls it...
Well, see there? You entirely missed my point. I was talking about helping lower levels in general. Not lining your pockets even more. You talk about how it's bad for the community but really you're only worried about your bottom line. I rest my case.

pretty sure I said it was bad for castle owning clans not the community.
as for lower lvls in general... I've given advice. Tought a few necros how to cdl (not sure if that is helping the commuity in general, but whatever), answer as many questions as I can on forums, I've given free gear and adena to noobies in starter towns... I'm no saint... I have a few perma reds, and have killed people 5 min after I bought them ng...
and of course i'm worried about my bottem line... SO ARE YOU!
/edit I even shared with you the limited knowledge I have on AW tat setup...
Woohoo an event! As I dont own anything remotely looking like a castle, I am sure I will enjoy this event (I bet a lot of those having a catle will enjoy it as well). The only problem I have is clearing my inventory.
Oh the agony, the humanity, the angst! I know I am going to love this.
From March 23 – 28, 2006, monsters in Aden and Elmore will be carrying special items engraved with the letters A, C, E, F, G, H, I, L, N, O, R, S, T, and II.
Guess this means I need to get more than the 3 open spots in inventory :eek:
About the castle owners, if you dont like the castle owners then DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. Increasing your post count spamming back and forth does as much good as me complaining about bots to gms, on forums, and on support. At least with a castle you have something that you can do something about, a castle isnt going to force log if you attack it.

Okay. I'll just take my clan and ... oh wait, I'm not in one.

Your first post:
"wow the market hasn't recovered from the pumpkin event yet. thanks for keeping enchant scrolls worthless"
the market hasn't recovered yet... this is bad for people who own castles. It is probobly good for other people... if the price of gas dropped to $0.10 usd per gallon that would be good for people who drive cars but not so good for people who sell gas. Do you understand?
Doesnt usually, so go AoE those cruddy 1/2 hp noobs.
That's what I have been thinking about =)
My skavy whants some pole-practice.
Are there any good place for 39 (40 with mid-c pole in forseenable future) skavy besides Bee Hive, and Lyrenics in Firelds of Silence later ?
the market hasn't recovered yet... this is bad for people who own castles. It is probobly good for other people... if the price of gas dropped to $0.10 usd per gallon that would be good for people who drive cars but not so good for people who sell gas. Do you understand?
No but then again I don't sell gas. Never have. Most private citizens do not.
Are you saying that castle owners are the only ones that sell the scrolls?

Are you saying that castle owners are the only ones that sell the scrolls?
no. mammon sells some scrolls. the scrolls he sells puts a cap on the market price for those scrolls. and the current price is well below mammon price the last time i checked. However for those that he doesn't sell castles are the only way to create scrolls in bulk. Sure you might get a scroll from a chest or a drop, but it isn't anything compared to what a castle can put out. It does hurt anybody who gets a scroll as a drop, and wants to sell it, but not nearly as much as it does castle lords.
The market has recovered just fine and the prices on scrolls are more reasonable but THEY ARE STILL OVERPRICED. It's just that you have become dependent on them as a source of income. Long ago I sold all my scrolls and I'm out so this would be a good time to refill my stocks. Unfortunately it looks like I'll only be able to play for 2 days but I'll be dropping mobs like flies. Dang NCSoft, now I have to reactivate my account which expires on the 23rd. I want at least one of those rings/earrings.

The market is fine, the scroll market is not the end all to be all of making adena for castle owners AND/OR non-castle owners. To go by your quote, gas stations should put up a car wash[FYI: they make money hand over fist on these] and deversify(sp), adapt and over come.
Plus I like the scrolls cheap, makes enchanting my stuff easier.
oh? castlelords can just put up a carwash? there is a limit on what a castle can produce
You bet and have Dark Elf Women do the washing!
|| <== thats how much I care about castle lords making money.
Like I said before the argument about castle lords losing money to events like this fall on deaf ears.
I can't wait till they bring back the pumpkin event again! ++ the best event todate!
Take care
Balis
if you don't care if they make money or not y r u posting?
The same reason you did not like the idea of a non-pvp/relaxed server!
NCsoft works hard for the events they give us, but we always have one or more whiners that post about how this event sucks, they won't make money, its only for the farmers..... la la la and all that jazz. Every event there is someone like you and I have been here for a very long time and have had enough of people whining.
I am here to be a voice for the events we do get and to counter the whiners and complainers that will never be happy.
Then again I am at work in between jobs and decided to post for the sake of posting. I will let you decide.

Owning a castle is your clan's choice. My clan chooses not to be involved in castle sieges. We each must live with the consequence of our choices.
Castle owners have no "right" to make money. For the unimaginative castle owner, a castle is a big money pit. If you don't like it, give it up. Either way, most of us don't care.
wow the market hasn't recovered from the pumpkin event yet. thanks for keeping enchant scrolls worthless
Dude shut up already, scrolls on kain are 550+ for c and 600+ for B how in the hell is that worthless? Go enchant something make more money that way anyway.
wow the market hasn't recovered from the pumpkin event yet. thanks for keeping enchant scrolls worthless
Dude shut up already, scrolls on kain are 550+ for c and 600+ for B how in the hell is that worthless? Go enchant something make more money that way anyway.
those are about the same prices as bartz... pre pumpkin event they were aronud 700k for c and 1.2m for b... see the price difference?
and the event wont break my clan. hell we might even make more money on it. The point is there is NO reason that NCsoft needs to repeatedly give rewards that hurt castle owners.
Event with enchants:
Pre Event: Castle Lords made 10m a week from enchants.
Post Event: Castle Lords made 7m a week from enchants, but made 6m from event for a total of 13m.
Event with other reward:
Pre: made 10m
Post: made 10m plus 6m from event for a total of 16m
The point is NCsoft can easily make the reward something other than enchants.
I don't give a rats buttocks about scrolls, funny how people see events as a way to make lots of money as fast as possible. Why don't they just call it a player economy boost. An event doesn't NEED to profitable, but fun, I wish NC's developers could see that one day.
what I see will happen:
*enchant scroll prizes will go down (a plus, and I'm in the clan that owns aden)
*during the event you won't see a single full party group to maximize the event drops, so ee's and bishops, better hop on your alts (I know I will, se's will probably still duo)
*after the event is done you won't see much full party groups either since everyone is soloing on the buffscrolls replacing healers and buffers (nerf VR already)
yes its a whine for an event that hasn't even started, but saying this event has been thought out thoroughly is a bunch of bull-dung.
when it comes to dd and pvp abilities of healers:
"wth, healers aren't supposed to dd, they are healers!"
when an event like this comes by:
"omg don't whine, just grab some light armor and a weapon and go solo"
*enchant scroll prizes will go down (a plus, and I'm in the clan that owns aden)
umm... aden makes money through taxes... gludio, inadrill, oren don't. not sure if dion and goddard do, but i doubt they make much if they make anything at all.
and ncsoft did make "fun" events. such as the race event and the christmas event and the C4 release event.
u think the market is fine? I still have tons of ench a/w scrolls, and I know people who have a lot more than me. THe fact is echant prices are screwed up. I have no problems with haveing an event, but there is no reason that they need to have enchant scrolls as rewards. It is just makeing them more and more worthless.
really? cause the [censored] are selling for 7 mil apeice on my server....

so what? I don't care how much aden makes, I'm already happy enough our clan is holding it. That wasn't even the point of my post. :/

If you have trouble using/selling enchant scrolls, you're doing something seriously wrong.
Is the event manager going to stay long enough for people to actually trade the letters around (ie. stay a week after the event ends)
A few facts from last time they did this event, if I remember correctly.
1. The letters had a great drop rate for some and others rarely. WTS II 1mil adena.
2. When you turned in the word the prise was random. I turned in several words and only got enchants scrolls nothing better.
3. The last day of the event after the mobs stopped dropping the letters you still had several hours to buy or sell letters to make words and turn them in.
4. Made much more adena selling letters than I did turning the words in.
Im glad we are having an event. It's not my favorite event but better than no event. Something to look forward too while grinding lol.
It also says "Stay tuned to the official message board for more events celebrating Lineage II in the month of April!"
More to come I hope we see some of the ideas bounced around on the forums.
what are the stats on those raid boss items? I can't find any info on them?
lets just say the friggn rock
give jewles like that to a melee and all of a sudden mages start crying for a nerf.... seriously thats how good the bonuses are
before you get your hopes up the last event had a similar high demand reward, i beleave it was b grade armor (back in the days when b grade was the highest grade ^^)
how rare was it to get it? well lets just say i heard a frined of a friends brother was in an alliance whos clan leaders friends friend got one when he traded in 500 words
Family: Jewel Type: ear Weight: 150
M. Defense: 71 Grade: A Crystals: 104
Description: Produces the following effects: MP+31, 40% increase in resistance to bleeding and increase in the amount of heal. If a character wears two identical earrings, the effect of only one earring will be applied.
Ring of Queen Ant
Family: Jewel Type: finger Weight: 150
M. Defense: 48 Grade: B Crystals: 82
Description: Produces the following effects: MP +21, 60% increase in resistance to poisoning, increase in accuracy, increase in critical damage, and 40% increase in resistance to hold. If a character wears two identical rings, only the effect of one ring will be applied.
Orfen jewel is crap, Ant Queen rocks. Time to farm some.
WOW! So much complaining... How about you guys just try to have FUN, you know FUUUNNN...something that I think a lot of L2 players threw out the window....
1.3mil for a B enchant was outrageous. The current prices are the correct prices. Stop trying to rip people off. If you use to sell one enchant for 1.3mil well just sell 2 enchants (because they aren't so rare and make ur 1.3 mil)
Anyway, thank you very very much NCsoft of a great event! I really like this one! Plus it gives me something else to work for except some more % while grinding...makes the game a bit more fun! :D
This looks like it will be a good event, at it is just a rehash of one of my favorite earlier events where we had to do the exact same thing, with some potential for earning some rather good rewards (i.e. boss specific items that some of us would have no access to otherwise, blessed rez scrolls, and enchant weapon a scrolls), and some rather mediocre rewards (i.e. everything else).
As far as getting specific boss items and the complaints of those who say its unfair we can get these items that they had to farm with alts for, well, I really think these people are being selfish. In all truth, I always thought such items should actually be the reward for a quest which culminates in killing said boss, so that everyone at the raid will get something interesting from being part of taking it down. Though its odd that people complaim about this event giving rings and whatnot when I don't remember anyone complaining that the medal event gave out level 11 and 12 soul crystals, even though the reason for complaining is exactly the same.
Oh ya!!!
This is a fun event, im guna enjoy it to the max... And like one of the previous posters stateted, what to do, sell letters or get the gifts... So tuff to decide...
I think a lil of both :)
TY NCSOFT for bringing us another sweet event.... An event is fun sure, if u make a buck, but it should also be enjoyed with friends... thats where the fun is...

Thank you! Last time I lost out on 6 completed sets because I got too sleepy and forgot to turn my stuff in before the NPCs vanished. Then the update deleted all my letters.
The event managers just appeared on Teon, and there are allegedly already some people who got the letters. I can't check the latter info, though, since I'm at work and just monitoring my AFK shop ... but could it be the event started a little earlier than planned?

don't think so, i've been up a couple of hours ago but no letters drop yet ^^
(maybe some spare letters from a previous L2Day?)
Aye, letters started dropping at 1pm GMT on Teon. However, 1/2hp mobs didnt seem to drop them nor did the starter town mobs so far. Got plenty in a Rift party tho.
Drops based on lvl/xHP of monster? No drops at low lvls?

awww man, if the 1/2 HP mobs dont drop em looks like im getin nothin, all my hunting area atm is 1/2 HP mobs :(
I poled in Bee hive = 0 letters. Now I'm 1 shotting 1xHP mobs in DE land on an alt = 0 letters and killed over 100 mobs. Before this I was in the dimension rift on my main = 4 letters for me alone in a 9 man party, total about 20 letters in 1 rift run. So clearly there's something affecting the drops.
hummmm, did the servers go down or did they just start dropping? If they just started dropping then it might take a while for all mobs to start dropping the letters...... i hope
Letters started dropping 2½ hours ago on Teon. They're still dropping in the Rift, but gee, I'm not getting any elsewhere. Also another clanny is getting loads of em killing lakins and the likes >.<
So, whats the secret here? Only toons lvl 50+ can get letters?
Several of my friends have gone off and are coming back at the event time. I am also myself preparing for the event, which I am not done with yet and I have scheduled my times around the event start.
As I said before, letters started dropping at 1pm GMT+0 on Teon. I've gotten 9 so far myself and my Rift party got around 20 in one run. They continued there after I left and got lots more. All in all, our clan has gotten aprox 50 letters so far ^^
The letters will begin dropping again and Event Managers will re-appear on the Teon server at the correct time of 5:00 AM GMT+1 following the server maintenance that is currently underway. Thanks!
So does this mean that event items will start dropping on all servers right after all the servers come online, or does this mean you're sticking to your guns and not starting this event until 10pm? If they aren't going to drop once every server comes back up, then why did every server go down if the problem was localized to Teon only? Further, why was the unfriendly time of 10 pm chosen, when this liekly to have been a time that is inconvenient for both North American and European players (i.e. the majority of the populace should have already been in bed or not far from heading to bed at this point) rather than a more friendly time of say 10 am that would maximize the amount of time all players could participate from the getgo? It just seems unfair you picked a start time which obviously does no more than minimizes the length the majority of the players can play in, but maximizes the proportional length that the smallest number of real players and bots can play in.
Well, as you can see, it's 5am tomorrow for Teon >.> means that We'd need to get up early in the morning to reap the rewards. And those with jobs will miss a many hours of the event. You're lucky to have it start at 10pm, as then most people will be home from work.
Our goal is to have a nice weekend event with a couple of days of buffer for those players who don't play on the weekends. The start and end times were setup with this in mind, and the event will begin tonight, as scheduled.

You do realize your event is going to start when both Na and Euro players will be asleep, but it will be 2 in the after noon for chinese players? Of course you realize that.
<sigh>
I love events. I really love events. I hate people who complain, beg, or want things on THEIR schedule for events.
For me it seems those people are out to make money on events, not enjoy the events for what they are. This is an anniversary event and instead of complaining about start/finish times, why not reflect on what you have/have not accomplished with the game for the past two years and just play along. You might get something great, you might not. Have fun with it.
For those out for the money, this probably falls on deaf ears. You know you could have gotten a commemorative plate, watch, weapon, or some other worthless gift like most anniversaries (on that note, isn't the 2nd anniversary gift something made out of cotton? You could have gotten a cotten tunic and stockings you know).
I'm in it for the chance of getting some good stuff yes. But if I am asleep when it starts and/or the not-so-legal-psuedo-players or whatever their official name is get all the good letters, so be it. I had fun with it. Last year I barely was in the game when this started and was unlucky. This year I have a plan. Or do I?
Yeah, I know, a lot of garbled talk, but I am tired and just want everyone to have (or try to have) some fun with the event and not take it so seriously. Remember the cotton stockings and tunic. How long ago were you wearing them?
when it comes to dd and pvp abilities of healers:
"wth, healers aren't supposed to dd, they are healers!"
when an event like this comes by:
"omg don't whine, just grab some light armor and a weapon and go solo"
That's actually pretty funny, although I don't think it's generally the same person making both statements.
its used whenever one of the two subjects come up for discussion. pretty easy way to shut healers up and 'prove' everything is working as intended.
Im suprized more healers dont do this. When I hit 20 I first went for robes, and then work my butt off and saved money to get light armor. From the time I got my light armor which was about lvl 30 or so ( it took me forever to save enough up for the boots) I was able to solo when ever I couldnt get a party. I was even able to solo at lvl 35. This should be a no brainer for any healer. Even with a clan there will still be times you wont find a party.
Healers cant solo at high game effectivly, its all fine and good for lowbies like you, but the higher ones are limited for monsters to hunt, from level 55+...the monsters hurt, especially for healers.
Edit: Where the heck did my flower pot post go...double you tee eff?
Don't get me wrong, I love events, which is the reason I am so upset to see such a potentially fun event have such a shortened time scale. The less time the event is running, the less total fun I will be able to reap from the event, and with an event that can give out such specific items that I wouldn't have a chance to receive otherwise, it is no wonder I'm dissapointed with the small scope, and now even smaller than expected scope. Whereas I had expected the event to start at 10 am to allow everyone the most time to enjoy themselves, as this has been the starting time for almost every other event prior to this(well maybe it was more in the afternoon), we expected them to continue on the same schedule, especially when there doesn't appear to be a valid reason for the chosen time.
As someone had pointed out in a now locked thread, saying this event starts on the 23rd when it starts at 10pm is no different from your credit card company stating your rate is 15.00% when it is really 15.0049999999999%. And anyone familiar with that case, knows how the ruling turned out, and it wasn't in the credit card companies' favor.
Will be the shortest event in history of L2 lol..can we at least have it for a full week?
I was surprised by the shortness of this event too. But if you read the last line of the Event Page, it has this:
Stay tuned to the official message board for more events celebrating Lineage II in the month of April!
It looks to me like this is the first of a series of events, and ends just before the April events start. I'm hoping the Event Poll we did is being used to bring back the events found most popular. (Something will have to substitute for the pumpkins tho, they aren't a spring item; tomatoes maybe?)

Find me a lvl 75 Undead mob that isn't social and has less than 5000 hp. Oh and, it can't be in an aggro area either from living mobs.
P.S. Before the smart people nail my butt with this post, Imperial Tomb is like 14-20k hp at the entrance. 10 Nukes per kill is not effective for any class.
I duo now and then with a prophet clannie, he's all geared towards dd with a heavy set, and trying to get myself a dc light set, and I'll borrow a GS with focus, that works pretty well I bet. but solo for a bishop at high lvl is just as big of a waste as time as fishing :p
The event time means I can't play on the first day (too late) or the last day (well, it's a week day morning) because I am in the eastern time zone. :( No big deal, just complaining for fun - since everybody complains about every event. :D
So if the event starts at 10 am in China in the morning, that means it ends at 10 pm in China!
L2day China event!! Woot!!
I think those should be the hours for the west, not China.
BTW you can request the event be extended all you want. Popular demand won't make it happen. 90% of the people requested the Rites of spring event be extended so people that don't use illigal programs could have a chance to find a bunny. They didn't.
okay so since mistryl locked the other thread to keep information in one place, back to my question, err i'll better re-phrase it hopefully ><
why exactly has NCsoft stated the event will be 23rd - 28th when pretty much since the event starts so late in the day (10:00pm) it would practicly be the 24th and most of us would be going to sleep... so why not just start the event on the 24th early in the morning? or heck early in the morning on the 23rd?
if i remember correctly almost all the other events have started in the morning, maybe NC is mixing things up? idk =(
and no i am not bashing this event or NC, i am actually really excited for this event!!! just curious about the timing and date the flyer says...
:eek:
EDIT: also another thing i am curious about, if you hunt 4xHP mobs will the letters drop 4x more often or 4x as many? if not it would be pointless to hunt in dungeons... and all the 1xHP field mobs are generally taken :(
pretty sure I said it was bad for castle owning clans not the community.
Your first post:
"wow the market hasn't recovered from the pumpkin event yet. thanks for keeping enchant scrolls worthless"
the market hasn't recovered yet... this is bad for people who own castles. It is probobly good for other people... if the price of gas dropped to $0.10 usd per gallon that would be good for people who drive cars but not so good for people who sell gas. Do you understand?
just give away your castle if you dont know how to run it, just because prices of enchants were higher in the past doesn't mean it was the right price. The Market in l2 changes every chronicle/event/whatever. Learn to deal with it instead of crying on the boards
How about for a change, instead of giving in game items for events, they give some Lineage 2 memorabilia for event prizes? Like you know the Lineage 2 T-Shirts that everyone wants but don't know how to get or maybe those Lineage 2 figurines that have been floating around somewhere, available for OTHER regions but not NA? Would be nice to get one.
Lol no thanks, i dont want a T-shirt i want something worthwhile, which to me is ingame items. I personally wouldnt appreicate such things as i wouldnt be able to use them, what good to me is a toy Y.y
I wonder. could it be because we would complain about getting items useless to us, pointing out that a person with a low level character could sell a high level enchant and get many low level enchants, whereas a high level player can't sell a low level enchant scroll and get even one high level enchant scroll.
I want to thank NCSOFT for having an event. I really dont care what it is. It gets so boring during the grind just picking up thread and stems the occassional sliver nugget and the very rare blade or armor part.
I now have something to look forward to when I get home from work tonight besides the same old grind.
I was suprised at how short this event is. But from the announcement I think we will have somethting different to look forward too next weekend.
Good luck to everyone. I hope everyone who turns in a word gets an earing or ring. that way I can offord to buy the one I dont get lol.
Enjoy the event and thanks again NCSOFT for giving me something to look forward too while grinding the weekend away.
no im at work so definatley not lucky. Won't get to enjoy the event until midnight PST.
But will be troling the forums to see if anyone gets anything good from the event once it starts. Im sure within an hour someone will be posting thier uber prises from the event.
I'm not that lucky too =( havent yet finished my paper due tomorow =(
Will probably take a glimps when i finish, but then will be time to go to sleep =(

What I'd like to know is if all letters are droping from the mobs, or are some of the letters dropping only from specific mobs? In other words, if I hunt a group of mobs, say Mahums long enough, can I expect all the different letters, or do I have to hunt something else for some of the more "rare" letters, ie the illusive 'II'??

It appears to be a pure volume game. I got II from lvl70 mobs in undead village and I got it playing around with a lvl28 in cruma swamp area.
Lol I hate this event, ppl are like paying from 10k to 5M for these letters, its always a game of guess when it comes to the price willing to pay. And drop-rate is blah.
Why must MMO-events always be about stuff that you can sell for mega-profit? Give us something besides that for once, something that excludes money and is just pure fun.
Or give us cool headgears that can't be sold or traded :)
But no one is making you sell the items. The fact that you can sell the items means the event is actually a huge success in giving out items that people actually want. And if you do sel the items, all you are saying is that the value of the adena is worth more to you than participating in the event, and it is only yourself you have to blame for choosing not to participate.
And, I don't know if I am the only one, but it seems to me that the more rare letters and number have a higher drop chance later on night when fewer people on on, as well as the general drop chance of these items being higher when fewer people are on.

They nerfed this event just like they did the medal event.
Last time they did this event the same letter were harder to get but still easy enough to get. But now 3 days of farming letters(grinding) and only 1 II with a rediculasly low chance of getting anything other than buff scrolls.
Good job NCSOFT taking a graet event from last year and nerfing the crap out of it. You changed the event so that only 24/7 automated players can really rack up.
How about next time skip the letters and just give the mobs a chance of dropping the items that way I still have inventory space left.
They nerfed this event just like they did the medal event.

Wasn't this what the majority of players wanted? (At least the ones who stepped up on the matter)
To not get so much stuff from the event as it would throw the economy out of balance. Like it isn't already.... :p
I like the rewards and the rate the letters drop. It gives me a challenge to get something out of the ordinary. But now I wished that freight would not cost 1k / item....
Enchant scrolls are quickly flushed through the system, and considering the latest raidboss exploit, a bunch of enchantscrolls to blow them up would have done good.

You are a liar for saying that and delusional if its what you truly believe.
A few vocal board whores who dont play the game but like to debate ingame economics and the owners of gludio castle owners do not constitute the majority of the player base.
The majority of players like rewards, especially rewards that reflect their level and commitment to the game. A level 7x playing for 30+ hours during this event gettings only 1 II and only getting 3 scrolls of guidance for turning it in is NOT what the majority of the player base was asking for. That is not a made up scenario either, thats exactly what I got this weekend.
Yeah nobody forced me to turn those letters in, yeah i could sell the II to an ebayer for xxx amount of adena, yeah i didnt ask for your opinion on what I should of done with my letters inorder to make NC's mistakes work in my favor because that is neither mine or your job to do.
You like these rates? you like the challenge? Either you've gotten very lucky or your botting 10 different characters in the starter lands. Rates are terrible and rewards don't reflect the effort. Buff scrolls are not unique and they are boarder line usefull. Especially when you consider the rate you can get this in thie event. After a weekend of hunting (and im a nonstop killing solo class) I have enough scrolls to buff myself half way for less then a day and thats ONLY because i bought a few s's and r's in dion when the event first started for 20k each.

I just think these kinda events mess up players minds, ive been here before in other MMO's, its not fun at all imo.
I think an event should be a time where you actually felt like you were in the right place, a place to have some real fun.
Forgive me... but collecting letters from mobs that you already kill anyways aint that fun, at least not for me. And the money doesnt change that fact, no matter how much it is.

Yes, yes... it sure sucks to be you...
Funny how I managed to waste 10mil Adenas (that I got legally in Game) buying letters, for turning words that mostly gave me crap, but still had fun with the event.
Weird hey?
Someone who actually saw the event for what it is, having fun, not making millions from uber drops.
Buff scrolls are great, but with the increase of secondary buffers and healers at high level, their overall usefulness has decreased from last event, so making them just about the ONLY reward is bad.
Forgive me... but collecting letters from mobs that you already kill anyways aint that fun, at least not for me. And the money doesnt change that fact, no matter how much it is.
I agree with this, it's one of the reasons I enjoyed the Dark Lord event more than most. It was something different, and it was more fun than just hunting monsters in my opinion. A lot of people seem to judge an event by the amount of adena they can make, or the items they get, that just seems strange to me. I'd much prefer an event that was a little more fun than normal grinding, even if I don't get a reward.
The other thing I dislike about events such as this, is the way it's totally skewed to those that can solo, and the faster the better.If a party wants a decent amount of letters, they have to sacrifice exp, and even then they probably wouldn't get as many letter each as a fast killing soloer would. Of course people could log onto alts, but to me grinding on an alt isn't really an event.
Personally I'd like to see more events that don't really involve simply grinding for different items. More events like Arrowhead Run, and the Dark Lord events would be much better.
Still NCSoft is trying and lots of people like this event it seems, so keep up the good work :).
Heres an idea for a game destroying event, remove any and all pvp penalties so we can go to town on each other as if the world was one giant arena. I could have alot of fun with that.
Yeah thats a great idea it would cause alot of people to quit and would lighten server loads.

Someone with their highest character being 4x had 10 mil laying around to blow which they legitimently made? Give me a break.
Yeah I have fun gambling with other peoples money as well. If you arn't a blantant ebayer I don't know what is.
Ever herd of playing the market, ever herd about the Nectar event? :)
Look at my reg date on the forum, I've been playing for 6 months now and I'm only level 40. Doesn't tell you something about what I've been doing?
Here's an hint, I'm making money as my principal occupation ingame instead of XPing.
I took me months to finally decide I should play a game that will cost me a steady amont of money each month, since I'm not really made of cash. Like hell I'm gonna waste anymore real money for a game. :mad:
By the way, this level 40 right now as about 30mil left in money and stuff to sell in her inventory. Not to mention that my BW for when I get to B grade is already bought.
Not because money is hard to make for you, that it is hard for everyone.
best thing i got was EWC 2 times... m(total of 6 ewc)
luckily i am able to break even when i sell everything, but still dang... they gimped the event imo... =( :( :( :(
heh... better luck next event just selling the stupid event items to other players... sad that the rewards of selling the event items are practicly better then doing the event... anyone else think this?

Wow 30 mil, I was wondering how people get a lot of money. I have been playing for ... let say 6 months. I have only 10mil with many junk stuff in the stock. My level is also relatively low ( Human Knight 40). I really have a hard time to get my gear and weapon. I did all quest I found but still don't have enough money. I spent most on healling portion and ss. :(
You are a liar for saying that and delusional if its what you truly believe.

Thats why there was the statement about the ones who stepped up on the matter. Duh.
With previous events, after the event there has always been discussion on the over population of the market with certain items. Get over it. They listened the playerbase for once.
The majority of players like rewards, especially rewards that reflect their level and commitment to the game.
True.
A level 7x playing for 30+ hours during this event gettings only 1 II and only getting 3 scrolls of guidance for turning it in is NOT what the majority of the player base was asking for. That is not a made up scenario either, thats exactly what I got this weekend.
Woo hoo cry me a river.
I've played for 8 hours total this weekend and gotten several words. Check the exact amount from a different thread.
Yeah nobody forced me to turn those letters in, yeah i could sell the II to an ebayer for xxx amount of adena, yeah i didnt ask for your opinion on what I should of done with my letters inorder to make NC's mistakes work in my favor because that is neither mine or your job to do.
You did not ask and I shall not comment on that. What makes you think everybody that has extra adena is an Ebayer? I'm an ebayer because my WS has 30 mil cash? LOL
You like these rates? you like the challenge? Either you've gotten very lucky or your botting 10 different characters in the starter lands.
OMG I'm a botter! :) Yeah, I've played 8 hours total, with 3 different characters, all on the same and only account I have. ****, if that's botting then what did you do?
Rates are terrible and rewards don't reflect the effort. Buff scrolls are not unique and they are boarder line usefull. Especially when you consider the rate you can get this in thie event. After a weekend of hunting (and im a nonstop killing solo class) I have enough scrolls to buff myself half way for less then a day and thats ONLY because i bought a few s's and r's in dion when the event first started for 20k each.
Yeah, I did it mostly solo too. With mid 30'ies chars.
So basically what you wanted from this event is buff scrolls to last you for a year and enchants etc for a lifetime?
Sorry to tell you but this is group oriented game...
Next time you want to solo make a non boxed healer/buffer happy and party him/her.
Wow 30 mil, I was wondering how people get a lot of money. I have been playing for ... let say 6 months. I have only 10mil with many junk stuff in the stock.

My Warrior (mid 30) can make 1 mil in a few hours off seeds in HC.
But it will require to have a good working manor in Dion.
Thankfully Gustin has one.
My Warrior (mid 30) can make 1 mil in a few hours off seeds in HC
lol, what a crock. my level 40 warlord with an orcish glaive with wide blow and with my 6x warcryer buffing with 4 rooms free of bots, even IF i could aoe seed, couldn't do that. run your mouth more junior.

I have made over a mil in a day seeding. Took me longer to seed then to sell the mats but it can be done. This was with a lvl 45 Glad solo too.

What server you play on?
I'll be more than happy to show you on Gustin how it's done.
Yeah, I did it mostly solo too. With mid 30'ies chars.
So basically what you wanted from this event is buff scrolls to last you for a year and enchants etc for a lifetime?
Sorry to tell you but this is group oriented game...
Next time you want to solo make a non boxed healer/buffer happy and party him/her.
I got absolutly nothing in this event exept a scroll of might. :confused:
But on the other hand a person that has been 100% botting was trowing away all his letters on thusday thinking that the letters were usless after the event ended.
so i got over 1.000 letters that i am selling in Giran atm.
So i did get something.
But none the less i did not get a II but i am not sad anyway, if everyone got one what is speciall about it then.
This is perhaps not the best event but an over all a good event and was fun taking part of it.

Unfortunatley if in that 1k of letters that you picked there were no R, S, or II then you missed out. I still see people trying to sell all the letters but those three. All the letters are worth nothing unless you have R, S, or II.
R, S and II are selling for 800k or more on my server but thier definatley not worth buying for that much.
Yeah they have.
EWC costs now about 400-500k (Haven't checked since sunday). I got them a few weeks ago with 300k.
Is it a bad thing? No, I don't think so.

Thought the same thing but i sell them all from 1k to 3k each so much cheaper then everyone else so everyone buy from me. Made 1.800.000 adena so far so its all good.
A couple of my clannies and I were lucky enough to sub the weekend before the event started, so I was able to play my main and still watch the other high level people miss out while I was inundated with letters. Didn't get anything good. But hell, a few buff scrolls to my melee friends in my clan sure go a long ways towards making them happier.
And you don't see the people that got the Rings bytching :)
Yeah, I'm still selling letters, since they can be turned in until (I think) the 4th. I long ago sold out of my II's, S's, and R's, but last night had no problem moving my "uncommon" letters (A, G, T) at 1k each.
Now selling "trash" letters for 500 each.
Since there are no more drops, but the rewards can still be claimed, people with "scratch-ticket-itis" (XD) and some pocket change will buy letters and turn in for a chance at prizes. And why not?
Anyway, even selling the cheap-o letters while AFK is nice, since it funds my SSD's and healing pots. XD
I will miss selling these letters. It's been such a boon to my young character's fortunes!
