Just a bit problem : When you have Improved Critical Attack (the combo from SE) you can't get the buff which increase critical attack and critical attack rate (i.e. from picking up the Vesper Slasher)

Is it normal ? :D
Event is great!
Hope we talk about same :go ask NPC at Castle Gate.
He has option
Quest
Click.
It has new submenu:
You can take 3 mini quests.
'Beautiful day to die'
'I like that smell of death'
'Bring Them all!'
Haven't try last one.
First is cool -> 'Beautiful day to die'
You are summoned into small room with elpy.
If you manage to die - is hard to be killed by elpy - REALLY hard! - you get as reward some vit ( After 1 h and 3 attemts I got vit 3!)
Second -> 'I like that smell of death'
You got summon into room that look like from Epic Quest.
Everywhere are dead bodies and flies flying (like around zombies)
You got new skill here- dig in dead bodies
When you use skill on dead body is like sweep but you can get poisoned/bleed/curse .. take HP potions you can die .. like I did - full exp lose :(
But I have found in one rotten body, EWS !
Need to try more

This almost makes me want to level to 84... almost. :(
By the way, I've also noticed a somewhat increased rate on Vitality herbs (sometimes it's like 10-12 herbs per hour, which means permanent Vit 4). Can anyone confirm?

As the title said! We laughed alot over some glowing weapons and annoying herbs, but that cant be the event we waited for, right?
you may not like +15% p attack or +20% att speed
but others may do
I aoe in lower FoG. If you go an AoE there you will get a ton of Vesper Buff sticks. Slasher drops and give Super Crit Power buff, the Caster drops gives another buff and Vesper Duels drops giving and Invincibility buff or something like that.
When I was aoe'ing a ton of these casters and slashers are all over the place. I spam p/u and pull. I went to dump my mats in my wh and saw the Caster. I immediately flipped. I through an augment on it and my clan gave me 3 ews's.
Thurs, April 1st, 2010 00:00 - Wed, April 7, 2010 until 7:00
Mobs will drop 10min bufs, 3 types:
- 10 minutes 15% increase in physical damage, spell damage increased by 20%, 10 mobile speed increases.
- Physical critical attack 10 minutes increased by 15 percent probability, the probability 2 Magic Critical Attack increases, increasing the speed 10. VR effect 5% HP.
- 10 minutes up to 20% increase in attack speed, magic, speed increased by 20%, movement speed 20 is increased.
Also on Korea you have the rare chance of getting a real vesper armor drop from box, would love to see that here lol.. there's one post here that claims such but it's 1st April so..
calling yourself unlucky when you have a valakas doesn't really add up lol, anywayz have fun putting up the sa.. for how much goes s gems on ur server ;)

With the +stats this event gives you can xp way easier.
Many people cry that are low levels etc etc.
Why you want a ready Vitality event?
This is almost the same and i could say a bit funnier because of the transformations
so far every body whose posted in this topic other than u lol
If the event is dropping whole weapons as another player claims then its a really good event. If we all just look like we are wearing vesper.....that I dont see the point. Watching the forums for more info....
Sace,
can you confirm this or not please? So we know how long vesper will be dropped.

It has come to our attention that, during the April Fool's Day event, some players that have had the luck of receiving a real Vesper weapon drop have been confirmed to be botting or playing while AFK.
This is not cool! To remedy this situation, we are confiscating the weapons from the players that received it while botting. These players have been banned from Lineage II permanently. We will continue to monitor those who receive the April Fools' Day Special Gift.
To ensure that appropriate players receive these weapons, we are currently working on a plan that will fairly distribute the confiscated Vesper weapons back into the game.
Once this process has been confirmed, we will implement it, and Lady Luck will revisit the servers to bring players a second chance to receive a real Vesper weapon. :)
having one winner left and right
and certainly on work days like today !
rules out too manny people that actually have to WORK today
to get the luck to receive such a thing, always keep working people in
mind please !
Ok for a next event maybe hand a lil luck over not to a select FEW
but more to EVERYONE
and the event i'm thinking about is the 6 years LineageII event.
what i'm gonna suggest is big
but, would surely help all the Real players out there
Give to every single player a + 6 Weapon of the grade of the highest level
toon on their account
why +6 , well 6 years lineage II, obvious...
So if my highest toon is a B grade toon i would get a B grade Weapon +6.
And if the event is announced in advance
a hell lot of players are gonna get back to reach S grade for sure or reach
as high as they can...
THAT kind of event would draw players back like flies to honney

1st:I was working all the week,and didn't have the chance to log in my teh server (aka Franz).Could you please beautiful Sace keep the event running during the weekend?
2nd:If you use seeds on mobs they only drop adena.Will they drop the vesper weapon or not,during seeding?
Was the Weapon a drop now, or somehow delivered like from Santa?
The real Vesper weapons aren't delivered like with Santa. It's a drop that looks like a box.

I'm sorry but there is no way for us to extend the event. :( RE the seeded mobs: Their normal rule of only dropping adena when seeded comes before any events alterations, so theoretically seeded mobs won't drop event items.

Big Huge Kudos to you and the team Sace! :D
I had a lot of fun on this event, even saw the yellow announcement when Fahen got the vesper :D That would be really great to see in all the events where the top prize is given out!
Oh and the manor bots need another clean-out, can't turn in a bloomin' thing for weeks :(
P.S. Sace maybe NC would think about quest like that(*) who are available to all ( like cubic or FI ) giving some rewards (EWS/vit/LS/ES) and not being just_yet_next_slaughter_quest_like (aka kill 10000 orcs ).
To not have spoiled game by players who would farm ONLY such quest add cooldown 1 week :)
I thought it was fun! It was also kind of helpful for me for awhile since the event stuff gave little buffs.
I didn't have clanmates on last night while I was on and am out of range for newbie buffs--so I was pretty clean on buffs trying to solo exp in SV.
Always nice to get a boost on dmg and such.
I enjoyed the "Event" while I was able to participate. Nice little boost to help leveling and the Vesper gear looks sweet. I would really loved to have known this was gonna take place sooner the 10:30 PM DST on April 1st. I would have logged into take advantage of the situation.
But alas, I work, I have a family, a sudden surprise mid week event spices things up, but honestly it is more of a tease then anything.
In nearly 6 years of L2 I have yet to see an Event that doesn't cater mostly to either the automated classes and the true die hards that are able to play 8-16 hrs or more a day.
I would be more then happy to eat my shoe if you brought the event back for a full week like the Koreans, that might give me a chance to get the real vesper drop. But I doubt it.
If every other NC branches, not the Korea mothership, only got the event for one day, I doubt we will be the only exception to have the event for a week. =[
Maybe they have a real easter event planned for next week or something? Besides the Korean's got Vesper armour while we got Vesper weapons.
Unless theirs wasn't limited to one per server (which would be hideously unfair), our reward was far superior imo.
Seeing as Tiat is farmed by multiple clans on all servers and Ekimus only by a handful of clans across all servers, I'm going to have to say that no, I think we got the shorter straw :/
As for the KR event, they probably get multiple drops per server since it takes 5 armor parts to make a set. Plus their servers are more populated than ours. That would at least be logical.
And I hope we get an easter event. I had to work April 1st, so when I got home I only killed a few mobs to check out the buffs/armor/weapons, then did oly before bed.
Vesper armour is simply 'okay' for the most part. Only avid collectors or Robes really (REALLY) want it. For LA users it's simply okay and for heavy's, the same. The P def increase isn't amazing over Dyn, and the bonuses are worse for most classes.
A Vesper weapon however is a gigantic boost for most classes. The Jump in power on those things are pretty awesome across the board (the crit damage on the dagger is just ridiculous tbh). The only one iirc that truly sucks is the 2 handed blunt.
Also getting 1 piece per server is friggin' useless. However getting a Vesper weapon, as long as you can get a cry 16, is something usable straight away.
Rarity doesn't always equal value. It certainly doesn't in this case imo...
although hopefully...
with the money i get from this time away fro L2...
i can Ebay a full set of Vesper and weapons...
(ok, i won't actually do it... ebaying makes the game less fun, not worth it)
great event though... think.
bet it's fun to run around with that vesper noble armor.
It's not a matter of having got the weapon or not...even tho its a missed opportunity !
it's about equal chances,
if they do the event in korea for one weak.
they need to do the event here for one week too!!!!
if NC soft Korea makes a event with rates 1/50 drops
the rates need to be exactly the same here!
I've discoverd rates are adapted to the number of players per server
so that u don't gonna run arround wiht 2500 vespers on one server!
This equasion is not fair
because okay they got a larger population in korea per server
and yes if they dint do that equasion the drops would be enormous!
but here its hell, if u do that same equasion here u get almost only 1
drop per server, wich is a total joke, because then the only persons
that will have a slight chance to get the item , ...wont be honest ones !!!
ok so u took bots out of the equasion, big deal... it's still cheaters who get the drops from events over and over again, never ever did i see one single honest player get one , why ?
because they got to go to work and go to school!
but most important of all, yes, maybe those players who got them din't
bot, but they most likely SAT IN THE HALL OF A CATACOMB IN A BOT GROUP!
that is still happening today!when are u gonna clean those up ? those people are the BIGGEST cheaters!
okay and one other thing too
its not because we dont have the same hollidays as koreans like
for an example , we dont have white day, that we dont get this event
just because europeans and americans dont have "white day"
i'm sure u can be inventive enough to make up a new name
there's plenty of things u could have renamed that in, like spring day
or flower day, or crazy day whatever ... it doesnt matter what u name it!
just give us the same events same period same droprates in calculation!
u got no idea how frustrated and angry everyone gets when they see
that the koreans had already like 12 events with good drops this year
and we had 2, tour of aden isnt even a good event, beacause there is
no way that a new player can participate to it.
there's no way a lvl 20 player can go into gorgon garden in front of aden castle
to take a picture from the 3 statues!
i made my point!
but here its hell, if u do that same equasion here u get almost only 1
drop per server, wich is a total joke, because then the only persons

You got a point but in Teon server I was exp at Silent Valley and I droped the special gift (vesper).I play at Teon 1 year and I play 100% manual.Deep inside I believe that the drop I had was not 100% luck but maybe a choise of some manual players, because we all and NC too know that there are bot parties and not only,pole parties etc which had better drop rate than I had killing one by one mob :).I want to mention the time I droped was close at the end of the day,almost morning of 2th of April.
Wish gl to all happy easter :)

yes its a thing i noticed too, drops on european servers still are in american prime times, really need to adapt that to european times!
like prime time should start at 16 h GMT not at 18 H gmt
because 18 h GMT = american time
and on american servers we dont get that privilige so why should americans get privilige on euro servers huh ?
I liked the event a lot. Would have been nice to see it run for at least a week. We didn't see any bunny event for Easter sooooo why not run the April's Fool event a week. The drop gift itself well one per server is a little extreme. Considering the bot population and that some people didn't even get online for that day seems unfair. Anyhow I liked the event..run it longer.
I like how proper vesper drop was like auto-ban hammer for afk bots, on the ball there sace/mox :)
Gratz to that LV74 kammie (too lazy to scroll back) who got one - by the look of your common phoenix jewels and things, awesome and you can use it to be loaded with cash to help you get to LV80 and beyond :)

Maybe we will get a spring event...even though we are half way to summer already.
:p We need to check out !!! It's 6th anniversary in few ... right ?:D
We didn't get any event for it last year other than the b-day buff NPC and a hat. I wouldn't bet on anything. Maybe more account service coupons lol. A free month would be nice. I wouldn't complain about that.

Yes we did we had the letter event with Lineage II and 5 Years where they forgot to add one letter to the game... so nobody could do turnin.
