Good Website

General Discussion Started Last reply 10 posts
Whats a good website for Quest Guides/Pet Information/Farming Locations etc? New to the game hard finding updated content.
hard to find a good place to go for info now.
your best bet is to get first hand experience from players in game.
they can let you know if it's worth it.

also guides around here on the official forums might help.

as the game is getting smaller and smaller, a lot of the best sites are pulling up their spikes and moving onto newer projects.

meanwhile i wonder how AionWarehouse is doing :)
Elliebelly.net was the site to be for good guides but that site is down. I dont know any other site that is good enough when it comes for guides & info.
Someone create a new forum/website for new guides...i cant translate korean to english so dont ask me.
Sounds like I should take on the project of Making a Updated Information website for lineage. Might help newer players like myself find a good home iwth the game, especially with CT3 in the future. After years of playing wow and being used to resources like wowhead, think all mmo's should have that kind of resource.

there are a great number of Korean websites, and Russian ones too.

but they dont take kindly to translation. the use a lot of local slang, and localized info that is unique to their territory of L2; i.e. korean servers, russian servers.

one such site is http://power.plaync.co.kr/lineage2/

NC also has a powerwiki for Aion

and GW has an extensive wiki, updated nearly daily.

Lineage2 is the red headed stepchild of NC. the one nobody talks about. since 2004.

ETA: let me see if i can recount for you the website history of good content guides:

first we had L2Orphus which shut down early Chronicle2ish. it was a particularly shady site where one could obtain and use bots, hacks, and general cheating guides.

L2pets, a site specifically for knowledge of L2 servitors and pet information (including the quest guides for sineater, hatchies and wolfs) closed, reopened, closed again.

L2physics a site for showing all the physics of the game including buffs, skills, and specific information to vague skill descriptions. closed and outdated since like Pre Interlude.

WrathOfTheJust used to have a quest guide section for doing some of the late game quests.

l2wh used to be a great site for seeing the drops and spoils of all mobs in game. it had handy other tools too like a mammon pricelist, crushing list, SA helper.

l2.dropspoil was a similar site (as was pmfun) however they soon were flooded with private server data from sniffers, and can't be trusted to be up to date, least of all accurate to earlier chronicles.

ivory-tower.de is a site where you can see how each armor/hat looks on each race. still active.

elliebelly.net used to be a great site for end game content guides, and had some posters from other regions who were able to give us in-depth detailed discussions of future patches.

l2guru is another one of those sites, howver its discussions are mostly trashtalk, and whose userbase consists mostly of users who were past l2orpheus members.

l2stratics and eogamer, and vault all have similar content; they are trying all to expand and have the content that all those other sites used to have but its a project that few have successfully undertaken. eogamer's wiki is about as big as it can be without regular user submissions; people seem to magically want the wiki to expand and show everything but that seems an unlikely event given the lack of submissions.

i'm sure there are a few sites ive forgotten too.

ETA2: yes, i forgot lineage2.rochand.com. thanks soulmagic.

ETA3: forgot Lineage2.online-welten.de which was a good C1-C3 site for drops and spoils and quest mob locs.
We did have a few great sites in the past. But as time goes on, and more people leave the game, the websites cease to be updated, or they close all together. I still really wish NC Soft would actually update their website. Its sad when you have to rely on fansites for updates to their game.

Now days I personally google the quest name I am having problems with. Usually within the first 3-4 suggestions I find one that has everything I need.

Yes, please do :)

http://lineage2.rochand.com has skills, weapons, armor, recipes covered very nicely but we definitely need a site that shows drops/spoils/probabilities, quest guides (L2.eogamer doesn't really cover most of the newer quests) and what would really be awesome is a site that covers the marketplace like L2wh used to :D
I totally agree with SoulMagic here. There is a big GAP in info sites for L2. If you have the time and the Website making know how, you can probably even make some good $$$ by making an up to date L2 info site, and fill with some ads. I know in the past we have been used to these sites being ad free, and off the backs of the people creating them, but as more and more people leave and sites close the more we have to accept the ads being there and a reason for someone to start up something of this size this late in the game.

And I also agree with rochand being the #1 place for skills/recipe/armour/weapon/ect. But it would also be nice to have a current quest walkthrough site like we had so many in the past. Eogamer is decent at lower levels. Since your new I suggest you check it out. It kinda fizzles once you hit 78.
