Testing: Octavis Normal Raid Boss Drops
Number of Kills: 100
Results:
Drop Group 1:
Blessed Scroll: Enchant Armor (R-grade) - 12
Blessed Scroll: Enchant Weapon (R-grade) - 8
Drop Group 2:
Octavis' Necklace - 2
Octavis' Ring - 1
Octavis' Shirt - 2
40% chance to get either a BEWR or BEAR, with 25% chance being a weapon scroll and 75 an armor scroll ? (i.e. in same drop group) ?
BEWR, BEAR, GEAR, and GWER all share the same drop group. 1/4 for each.
This is a concept so wrong and old from L2 where almost everthing in game increases your p.def and only jewels increase m.def. And if something else increases m.def, it also increases p.def, like cloacks(in the begining the old ones only gave p.def)
Good jewels like octavis and istina are now almost impossible to get, and if your fighting a nuker you either give up on special bonus for m.def or try luck with debuffs like stun to kill before beeing killed.
Daring Sonata removing 3% p.def and 11% m.def?
Immortal jewels having less m.def then vorpal ones?
If you want good jewels you need to be in the clans that feed NC with $$$ and wait your turn.
About the jewels.
having boss jewels is not mandatory, at least for some classes or players. ppl are running after +6/+10 sets of armors yet i dont see anyone going for +6 or more eternal jewel... ppl still keep the old bad mdef jewels when fighting mages.
Doing 12-16 octa EVERY week as clan (not christmas week) .Hardly anyone use drop rune or any coins until see GM run around ban bot trains (then many more ppl would at least buy 13-39 dollars /months coins since seeing ncsoft ppl working)- and still we not need kill 100 for 1 jewel...Last 3 months alone ( so bout 108+ octavis) we had at least 3 jewels drops, if not 4-5.
Lineage is and was always a farm game. With 2-4 octavis /week u wont see much ofc.

Boss jewels are not mandatory for PvE purposes but if you ever want to be able to compete on a top end PvP level, either world PvP or Olympiad you need boss jewels.
The only reason people are using eternal jewels is for the mdef and only against nukers classes because they hit like trucks this update.

Lol.. ever tought about getting some 1 hr 200% runes and doing 1/3 of what u doing?
Drops are low because of pp like you... serisously..
How u even have time for this? I feel bad for you.

hey, u not understand it i think.
- Octavis and istina are not raids for exp, its for jewels/shirts farm.
- IM 0 coin user,so no scrolls.
- i not said that I make 12 octavis myself. What about haveing 12 good raid captains who make 3-4 octa(isti/balok) simultaneoulsy diffferent cc? (yes,there r old clans with 180+ real actives...)
- drops r low because of massive inflation of total adena pool in server,which was created by **** bots and because ncsoft decide deflational measurements ( also wts more drop runes).
Certainly NOT because of me or my clan...
- no need feel bad for me ,ty for the emphatie tho:)

I know exactly what you meant.
And I still think its a waste of life time to manage tons of alts to 100+ octavis only raids a month.. plus istina and etc..
its 6-7 cc/timer reset = 84-119 real ppl ,no need much alts.Its not that many ppl and then its still ok if many clanie do it just 1 or 2x a week.Same for istina and balok.
My pt do it with set 4x 200% 3x 300% I dont make stats or note it down, but we got only more shirts, one weapon so far and some seraph part.. manytimes nothing expect enchant and unbind, happen to us yday.
But we cant change anything about it.. I hope anti-bot seting dont affect this instances..
I think income from drops (since prices in AH dropdown) are not worth to spen $ in runes.
You need to find other ways of investing your money.
All those runes...You could simply make a clan effort. Gather items that worth 3-4 times more in low population servers. Transfer 1 char there. Sell the items. Invest your adena to something worth in Chronos/Naia. Move a charcater to Chronos/Naia.
Total cost 8k nc coins
Total gain depends on your investement and the ratio: item value high populated server/ item value low populated server.
