Introducing our new NCoin promo! Get bonus rewards for buying certain amounts of NCoin between May 9 and May 23, 2012. The different kinds of rewards include accessories, a buff potion, an XP item, a temporary boss jewel, or a permanent Antharas Agathion!
If I purchase cd-keys in other places is it still valid?
good question so how is the tally up being done, is it based only on transactions through buying NC Coins from the NCsoft Store or does it also take in consideration NC Coins added to the account through the usage of GameTimeCards ?
I purchased NC Coins almost 1 hour ago and have not received my items via the Dimensional Merchant. I chose the correct server and toon name, I triple checked it. I have already sent in a ticket to support as well, but no response yet.

I'll get back to you on this as soon as I get the answer to your question.
I purchased NC Coins almost 1 hour ago and have not received my items via the Dimensional Merchant. I chose the correct server and toon name, I triple checked it. I have already sent in a ticket to support as well, but no response yet.
Please read the full details on the NCoin Promo page on the website; it explains and answers this question:
Example: if you purchase enough NCoin to earn one or more milestone rewards at 09:59 PDT on Tuesday, May 15, the item(s) will be applied to your account the next day, Wednesday, May 16. If you make the eligible purchase at 10:01 PDT on Tuesday, May 15, the item(s) will be applied a week later, on Wednesday, May 23.
The bonus item(s) will be applied to your Lineage II game account on the following Wednesday. You’ll receive a message notifying you of this via an email to the email address on your NCsoft Master Account.
just purchased 4000nCoin and nothing appears to me on dimensional. Already clicked on apply items in game and nothing
Please read the full details on the promotion page. (http://www.lineage2.com/en/news/store-promos/ncoin-promo-5-9-5-23-2012.php) It explains that the rewards are inserted weekly, on the Wednesday following the purchase-time-frame-window your transaction was made in.
really? This is the event? Celebrating by making more kids to donate via their mother's credit cards and casual players are left with nothing? **** get's worse and worse....
I've edited the promo details page to make the "when will I get my reward item(s)" question and answer more visible. Even so, it's always a good idea to read the full details of a promo or event page. :)
really? This is the event? Celebrating by making more kids to donate via their mother's credit cards and casual players are left with nothing? **** get's worse and worse....
There are no donations in Lineage2. Either you purchase something or you don't, it is completely up to you. Furthermore, this is only part of the celebration while you make it look like the purchasing part is all of it.
How about you as a "casual player" celebrate with us by getting a full 100% more XP from your vitality and use it to level up/catch up. While the added vitality is very useful for casual players, it is practically worthless to awakened chars, so why complain.
I really can't understand some players what repeat all time, that "Pay to Win".
Now really what is the overpowered for you here?
When we had Pay to Play service if we did pay for 6 moths we got 1 free month or something like this.
Now you receive same reward, just you get these stuffs:
Do you think that your enemy will be stronger with a 7 days Agathion?
Do you think that a 30 days Baium ring make your enemy stronger?
Do you think that this 4 hours Nevit Hour glass make someone from lvl 1 to lvl 99?
Do you think that a little Antharas figure what fly around your enemy give to him the power of Antharas?
If someone from you just a little know this game know it also, that these bonus items honestly are useless.
I did buy yesterday 4000 NCoins but I not really care about it, that I didn't get one of these rewards.
It isn't make a difference also at the situation of causal players. NCsoft since the release promote the Lineage 2 as Hardcore game. Who is causal player here has to accept he won't be hero, he won't get castle, he won't gank a whole party alone.
to you NCsoft I just can say it is a good idea keep continue the promotions like this!

Hi, i need the answer to this question please, let me know if i can obtain the rewards by activating game time card serial codes in my NCsoft Account Management.
So it's actually worthless, not used for anything, just for looks?
I wouldn't say it's worthless. The agathion is part of a limited time promotion and it will only be available for 2 weeks.

A matter of perspective. Helps none at all and takes up a possible skill slot. Worthless. But 4000 coins less, at least get a ring with great stats for 30 days.
None of that stuff is worth a hundred dollars. Only ONE of those items is permanent. That's not enough to lure me, nice try NC maybe next time.
The point is that, theoretically, players are already buying NCoin in order to spend it on L2 Store items and enhance their game. This promo encourages that by offering bonus rewards in addition to whatever you decide to spend your NCoin on. Of course, promos are not for everyone, but this one is here for those who feel it is worthwhile.

Right and everyone has a limit and I limit myself to $25 a month if I decide I am going to buy coins. I am more willing to purchase permanent items over temporary items. If the bonus was say more permanent items I'd consider spending more,but since there is ONE permanent bonus in there that in my opinion is only worth at most $25 itself. I'm more or less looking at the value in stepping over my budget to get a bonus,but the bonus isn't worth me doing it. I don't know who determines these things,but pass this along as feedback if you get the chance since you're the go between :P

This we all already know. It was just my opinion. We don't have to toss this back and forth all day.
Indeed everyone has their own opinion and threshold on what is worth or not worth participating in the promo. Promos and events seldom please everyone at once and in the same way, but we're always collecting feedback and the results from this promo are no exception. For example, this promo does not contain any elements of chance, whereas our launch promo let you get rewards as well as possible additional rewards. Feedback from that promo led us to try one that is only guarantees. And other feedback led to other elements of the promo, etc, in the past, and in the future.
Every day I stand in line at the bagel store to buy 3 bagels and a Fuze drink. On tuesdays, it's buy 2 get 1 free. I like this day because I get a free bagel (yeah!). The person in front of me grumbles that the bagel store is trying to get him to buy one more bagel to get a free one and he not going to fall for it!. The person behind me is excited because they usually get 2 bagels and gets an extra one now.

Yes!
But, are the bagels being advertised as a 2 week event that lasts for one SOA Daily?

That's nice, at least you are getting something of equal value for the promotion, plus the price of the bagel is not material.
But the promotion for spending $100 is more of:
Spend $100 on a dinner gift card and get unlimited refills on sodas during your dinner plus you get to keep the cup. The free soda and cup is not going to attract new customers.
The promotion is for people already buying and willing to spend $100 on NCoins.
And like Sace mentioned its not for everyone, which includes me.
Didn't intend to ruffle any feathers. Just that I don't see a need for the agathion doesn't mean someone else is like me. I still will restock NCcoins just shoot for other items. My original comments in this thread were just a question. And ofc we can't all be happy. and I'm not upset. It's all good :)

Yes I was one who disliked the "chance" to get an item as a bonus. I felt that if you are getting an item you should just get it, and now I'm giving you feedback that the bonus items should contain more permanent items based on how much you spend of coarse. I understand the in game store offers temp items,but bonus items should be generally permanent as a way to promote spending of those like me who aren't so willing to spend over budget. You'll always have the ones who spend a lot on coins..your regulars,but there's potential big spenders out there if the you sweeten the pot just enough once in awhile. :)
I make a point to spend some money every month because it does support this game that I have enjoyed for 8 years. I know not everyone can be pleased or appealed to.

If you read the event page carefully it tells you that you get your bonus at maint on weds. All of your items are given at the same time.
I really can't understand some players what repeat all time, that "Pay to Win".

Apply the coins and the bonus material you get at maint on weds. I believe it will be in the dimensional merchant

BEST and most CORRECT reality statement ever since earth moves around sun
BEST and most CORRECT reality statement ever since earth moves around sun
casuals got the letter event, there was no purchase required, now this is for the people who like to spend money in the store. It's not being unfair, you're just upset because you don't have the funds to spend.
So anyone what is the point of paying 400$ in a "truly-free" mmo to get agathion that do total nothing ? : )
Not mention about O,o tax in a "truly-free" mmo .
Maybe devs from a "truly-free" mmo could tell why they droped idea of game time cards and idea of paying for something like on innova that is **** more cheaper than it is here !
What some fail to realize is that these items are 'Free with Purchase.'
Basically, like many retail stores do, when you buy something (ex. a shirt) for $40, you get a 'gift' (ex. a tie) for free.
It adds a little value to the Galleria and Store items you will already be able to get with the NCoin you buy -- because you don't actually spend any NCoin on these bonus items.
Yes, we want some bonuses with more... substance... But, people that spend $$ on NCoin will continue to do so, so they just need to consider if they want to spend a bit more into their NCoin bank to cash in on this promo.
What they did is actually really good, now if only the Antharas agathion -- the highest bonus -- would have some special effect buff like Zaken swords, etc. then it would be "worth it."

It's been confirmed that getting NCoin by using Game Time Cards/Codes does count towards the NCoin Promotion. :)Hello, I bought 4800 NCoin on offgamers.com (4x1200 by using Serial code) but nothing appeared in my account, no new items at action - Apply In-Game Items. The date when i used codes is 11.may, so what should i have to do now?

:(New Problem rises. Can not activate any serial code. How to solve this problem?
"You can't use the supplied serial code. The supplied serial code is valid, but it can not be used to create a new account and it can not be applied to any accounts you already have. Return to Account Management." :confused:
don't buy GTC that are only useable for new account creations.. for existing accounts only pure Game Time Add cards will work.
Actually the message appears with pure GTC as well if they are from a different region than the account but not always . Ie a 2007 account accepts them , another 2007 doesnt and a 2009 doesnt either , etc...
