Awesome :) +1

I just wish we could get H5 part 1 ASAP :(

Back from work. Im editing my previous posts to add more info.

EDIT:
Alright, that's pretty much everything in Hi5 part 4. There are a few things I missed cause I count make them out, not that many. Have fun.

Fantasy island run speed buff...
probably to help people navigate better...
that place is pretty big.

Whoa, Dynasty goes from S80 to S. That's pretty nice.

(Kamaloka and other crapload of things I dont understand ><)



i think it is something about some NPC that will allow u to port bact to town after finishing kamaloka

Please keep in mind these are the korean test server patch notes. There is a great chance they will change some things in it before getting it to the korean live server.

and we will probably never get any of these updates. woooot

Whoa, Dynasty goes from S80 to S. That's pretty nice.

Nice for what? Turn all the current S grade gear useless?

Nice for what? Turn all the current S grade gear useless?

Current way of obtaining S gear is more than ridiculous. Further more clean dynasty sets costs same/cheaper than IC/Drac + Dynasty robe > MA robe so again it's better/cheaper solution.

in next update s grade u will get from shops :D :D

No.

in next update s grade u will get from shops :D :D

You won't even get TOP B grade... Just low A. However low a is the best for heawy/robe users anyway.

Whoa, Dynasty goes from S80 to S. That's pretty nice.
Personally, I think it is a double-edged change. Yes, it's nice that now you can wear Dynasty at 76, but now that means that I will be playing one grade behind, again. S80 was pretty much the grade where everyone catched up in the gear grind, and moirai quests you dont take until 82 (!!!)

Any mention of wolves going over lvl 86 and/or using their SP??

You won't even get TOP B grade... Just low A. However low a is the best for heawy/robe users anyway.

it was just joke :P
but:
if dynasty will be s grade then all s grade items that are now will be lower s grade
and since ncsoft put all lower grade item to shop(B , A) it is possible that in some future update u will be able to buy ic/draco/ma set from shop

anyway i dont like that dyna will be top s grade :/

The thing is that they should put low S grade to shops just because new players do not have enough money to buy once they reach certain level.

Game moved on and old players have to adapt. Now game is interested in Vesper/Vorpal/Morai not S grade. Condition for new players should be made easier and I like the way NC is doing right now. They just should do it little faster.

New login screen on High Five 4!

I hope you like it ;)

Added a couple of things I missed yesterday. Posted more precise descriptions on other things.

Will post more later when I get more time.

New items video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meOInol-JDA
I hope you like this one too ;)

noticed on the items vid that the new raid weapons have sa's listed is there already a full list of those sa's & stats posted anywhere ?

Anyone knows if the dyn jewels and tw ones will be turn into S grade too?

It's not really clear if all Dynasty will be lvl 76 or not. The High Five Changes to A grade weapons has made S76 weapons almost obsolete. Some special weapons highly elemented could be useful, but for a lot of mobs, highly OE'd A grade weapons are as good and cheaper to use and make. Save the elementals for armor or 80+ weapons where they will be more useful.

While a lvl 76 to 79 toon has no chance of getting Dyn recipes from quests, or farming most parts either; Delusion Chamber with a spoiler is a great place for Dyn parts; Clans with the higher level toons who can get them probably will help. For alt toons and subs, Dynastic will be the standard for armor in the 76 to 80 range.

Tat jewelry on the other hand is easy to get parts/recipes for and cheap to make, cheap enough that OEing it is something a lot of players can afford. While I have crafted my own Dynastic armor and OE'd a couple of extra parts, and I'm trying to successful craft a Dyn weapon or two, I have not got any Dyn jewelry except as full drops from mobs. I get some parts, but recipe quest seems to be higher level than my level 80+ toons. For those under 80, I see Tat jewelry remaining the standard for a while yet, even if they can use the Dynastic jewelry.

My sole concern about the continuing incremental introduction of High Five in Korea is, it makes the release of it here, most likely as a single combined update, less likely to happen sooner than Soon! Not looking forward to seeing High Five part 20 release notes next December.

Anyone knows if the dyn jewels and tw ones will be turn into S grade too?
Patch notes only show weapons and armors.

Posted more info on Raid Boss Weapons. 1st and 2nd post.

nice, can u also add the stats like patt/matt for the weapons ?

also as those are drops only how come masterwork values ? do they have basically 2 bonus SA's ?

looks like I'll be camping Tullies in H5 part 4 24/7 o0

Whoa, Dynasty goes from S80 to S. That's pretty nice.

Yes, great, but too late for me. :/
Healers will all say "Finally a S-Grade set!" ;)

I posted my question in wrong topic some days ago, so I'm asking here in right topic again :)

Anyone has any informations about burning chop and their enchant route?

lazy NC soft!! instead of making new S grade armor they lower Dyn to S grade.

haven't seen anything related to the new H5 skills enchat routes.. let me know when you find any as I'm also interested to know for what the sws/bd new attack skill can be oe'd ^^"

Anyone knows if the dyn jewels and tw ones will be turn into S grade too?

Dynasty jewels will turn into S grade - confirmed

Dynasty jewels will turn into S grade - confirmed

time to sell my tateo set too...

time to sell my tateo set too...

It was probably time to sell Tat anyway. The market prices currently for sealed Tat +0 jewels is only a million adena or two more than Majestic +3 unsealed jewels in most seller shops. Sure, there are some people charging premium prices (~18M per piece) for Tat items, but those jewels have been in shops for weeks and likely will remain unbought until the sellers lower their prices.

(S grade; Yehan Klanikus or Yehan Klodekus at Hall of Suffering)

Thanks for the info!! All Raid Weapons have been updated with their attack stats too.

about how to get masterwork version of this weapon; in korea there is a bead-like item that can be used to exchange a normal weapon for a masterwork one of the same kind. last year's xmas event in korea gave them.
under the hunting ground patch note of h5 part4 the last section is about a new/replaced mobs that drop them (imho it's about the fortune bugs :p)

link to korean wiki: http://power.plaync.co.kr/lineage2/%EC%83%88%EB%A1%AC+%EA%B5%AC%EC%8A%AC

PS: there is no drop for S80 one listed and S84 completly missing .... :eek:

wtb Red Duals....awesome...i love it...!!!

kinda sucks that raid boss weapons are relatively terrible...

Typical of L2. Focus on fashionable items, rather than functional items.

well personally i think the zaken daggers look terrible... and why are zakens weapons dual daggers?.... he doesn't even use daggers.. he's got like 6 or 8 swords or whatever...... if anything zaken's weapon should be duals.. not dual daggers....

but that's just me..

maybe because zakens duals are basically katananas or lowest D grade duals or something.... nothing special...

Course would be interesting to see zakens toon updated to appear to be using those daggers lol... zaken the *****er....

I believe I missinterpreted the info on the dual dagger. They look more like "Doll Blader" daggers.


Update:

Elmar contacted me to shine some light on this: The weapon is indeed a "Doll Blader" weapon, but it is dropped by the hgih level Daytime-Zaken. It's called "Minion's Kitchen Knife" lol

Well I like the new part of High Five. Seems they really plan that give +360 weapons to the game in the upcoming patches.

The idea of increase the stat of Boss Jewerlies was good and useful idea.

And everything else too the new weapons are looks like good.

But mostly I'm very interested about the Goddess of Destruction Expansion! It can recall the old players and recruit many new players. I read about it in different forums and many peoples told if this expansion will release they will reactive their Lineage 2 accounts or they will buy the Lineage 2 and start play with it. I hope in this December too will conference about the Lineage 2 in Korea where we can get more info about the expansion!

NCwest please try to take here fast the High Five expansion!

another hobby will be camping auction npc's check the new list.. top s84 & epics

Right up my gf's alley, for her, fashion > function ingame ^^
She wants her chars to look good over having good bonuses and so on :D
Question is just whenever we will get all this...

She wants her chars to look good over having good bonuses and so on :D

He he, i want the exact same thing, and i'm a "he" (last time i checked ;) )

I remember a few years back, looking all over to get a Rind Leather armor for my BladeDancer because it looked so cool !!

Honestly, L2 is the most awesome-looking MMO i've ever played, even to this day it still beats the hell out of any other new game, that's what drove me to it in the first place (and the grind is what drove me away from it at some point), so i guess it's just right that we fashion freaks get a little love :)

drake set on dark elf... pimp style!

Well, fashion matters in more ways that you may at first think. Having such a limited number of armor/weapon sets in a given grade means it will always be very easy to guage your opponant's approximate level.

It's so obvious in L2 that just buy looking at some characters, you can tell what class he/she is playing, and what their approximate level is. Buy knowing what the bonuses are for the sets, you can even tell how that player shas his character set up.

For instance, say I am grinding and come across a human fighter with duals swords in Tallum heavy armor. He's probably going to have Tallum*Dama becuase there is only 1 "top" weapon in A grade for him. But becuase he has tallum, I can assume he's built for speed rather than power, and his going to rely on his skills to save him, becuase he can execute them quickly and still get a few hits in while they recharge.

Now, if I saw the game person wearing say... Majestic heavy... I would not assume that. I would probably assume he's built for higher single hit damage and not speed, he'll also have a higher P.def and probably be less affraid of getting up close and personal. He'll probably ues fewer ranged skills and feel better using TSS knowing that I'm 50% less likely to stun him.

Even in that 1, very small way, what your character wears affect gameplay. And that is just one of many many ways that is true. I've played most of the other MMOs and I can tell you, that while Lineage II is my favorite, it has the lowest overall number of armor/weapon options, and not by just a little.

Adding ANY kind of customization would be useful. Have more than 1 or 2 choices that are "top" for a grade, because if you don't, everyone will just use the "top" choice, and look the same. Add the ability to customize the armor or weapon. (Pick any look you like, but then apply set bonuses that you like or suit your play style from a list of available options)...

Simple things like that would work wonders for overall playabilty and replay value. As well as a better, more immersive game world.

i would love to be able to turn my moirai heavy armor a shade or specific color... even just a way of a secondary mode..

Lineage II supports the aspect of dieing armor.. and actually VERY easily.... unfortunately ncsoft doesn't want to take the time...

Well, changing the color is something I hope NCsoft NEVER allows. You can always count on some clown to make bright neon green Majecti PA with Smurf blue highlights. We have enough eye sores in this game as it is will players getting names like "tightcherry" through the name filter. (been sitting in Aden at the top of the stairs for months now BTW). Between dumb names, and gawdy titles, the visuals of this game suffer enough. The awesome art style of Lineage II is one of its strongest features, I would heartbroken if that was something they let their customers destroy.

sace, BD's onlt have 1 skill new? T_T its soo poor i want more skills

while i would agree that some dyes are ... not favorable...

To each their own..


but unfortunately i do not beleive it to be that EASY to allow a wide range of colors... it would likely follow the same schemes that are available for changing hair color or what have you...

Unless ncsoft sets a range of adjustments to specific parts of armor that can use a slider of sorts... "color replacement" using a specific skin.

See in the unreal tournament games using the unreal engine... to have different colors, you would have to implement a skin for each color you wanted. In the game, team colors would involve the character being created with the standard skin, and then an additional skin with blue and one with red and one with yellow and one with green. Each one would have a unique texture skin compiled into the utx for that perticular model.

I would guess that while more problematic, for someone to allow for dyeing, ncsoft would stick to it's guns and create additional skins for the same armor.

What's hugely problematic with this, is that EACH individual character style would need it's own skinning... Because nscost doesn't use a model just for say moirai, it actually "paints" it onto each excisting character model... this is frankly terrible way of doing it.... but that's how it's done. at least as far as i can see..

NCsoft kinda dropped th ball here..

I think Kamaels are modeled differently though.
