Server Maintenance - 8 - 17

News & Announcements Started Last reply 28 posts
All servers will be down for maintenance on Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 5am PDT / 7am CDT / 8am EDT / 12pm UTC/GMT. Estimated downtime is approximately 4 hours.

With this maintenance:


The Hero's Treasure Chest (http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=214916) will be removed. The chest is a single item in your inventory or warehouse, when you may have received in May 2011 as a subscription bonus during the 7th Anniversary Celebration. Double-clicking on the purple chest icon will "open" the chest. The items inside the chest will not be removed from the game, but any unopened Hero's Treasure Chests will. If you have not opened your Hero's Treasure Chest yet, do so before this maintenance.
The Double XP & Drops Week (http://www.lineage2.com/archive/2011/08/double_xp_drops_1.html) event begins! Enjoy!
All characters' vitality will be refilled. A vitality refill will happen with every regular weekly maintenance until the live launch of Goddess of Destruction later this year.


Other timezones listed here (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Lineage+II+Weekly+Maintenance&iso=20110817T05&p1=234).
I have come to enjoy Wednesdays.. not just hump day any more it is vitality refill day!!!

Note: "Hump" in this context is not something we should consider to be censored (http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=216864).
Just a small thing Sace. It seems to me that the time for the maintenance is 1:00 PM GMT and not 12:00 PM as stated in all of the maintenance announcements.

I struggle to get the times right a lot so correct me if I am wrong?
Here in France, It starts at 14h00, so 2pm GMT+1 with DST Settings

Never forget the DST Settings :D

It is 12:00 GMT, the problem is just that during summer (DST), UK is using "British summer time", which effectively is GMT+1 (and Germany etc. are using GMT+2 instead of GMT+1). So if someone says "12pm GMT" right now and you're living in the UK, it is 1pm local time for you. Time zones are an unsolvable problem it seems, lots of people use the wrong time zone names (EST instead of EDT etc.) which then causes trouble when others look up the time on a "convert to your local time zone" website.

EST is currently right, since US East Coast has DST settings on.

But your are right, far too many people get Timezones wrong, especially US Citizens (when it comes to timezones outside their main territory) and people who spent most of their year on GMT/UTC zones...
I still have problems with my summon in olympiad.
When I get 3 matches quest item, 2 wins item disapears.
Bad feature is bad.
etc.

I am not from the US, but as far as I know it is:

EST=eastern standard time (autumn/winter)
EDT=eastern daylight time (spring/summer), one hour ahead of EST

So right now EDT should be in effect, I guess.
I just wake up with a smile on my face "aaa so nice waether ouside.. Who cares... not me" I just wanted to play L2.. in my dark room. Today I was free to play Lineage 2 but WTF 14:00 o´clock (UTC + 01:00 Copenhagen, Paris Brussels , Madrid) OMFG... server was down... :(v sad sad :(:confused: now what I think I will play Aion that time :)

Nice, Double XP is always welcome :)

OOOOOPS, my bad, lol!

EDT is currently on some EST locations.

Mistaken them because when Brazil has DSt on, we add a S to our timezone.

DST off = BRT (Brazilian Regular Time)
DST on = BRST (Brazilian Regular Summer Time)

My bad, you are right. ^^

Gess this freaky cold air conditioner is driving me nuts! it's like 27ºC outside but here it's like 5ºC! Cant think Straight...

2x XP / Drops can't be toggled On/Off, it can only change with a full server restart.

NPC's can be toggled On/Off on NPC server, that don't impact the rest of the game... When some NPC is toggled ON, it just respawn.

Nevit's Herald spawned about 10 minutes. She's in all the locations she would normally be, meaning all major towns but not the newbie villages.
Also in Rune.
