Prestige Pack subscribers as of October 9th, 05:00am PDT will receive a Drop Rate Rune 100% (7-day) on their highest level character on each server as a compensation for the extended downtime during the October 9th maintenance.
Bug Fixes and Changes:
Fixed issue in which AoE skills such as Poison Zone and Shadow Snare wouldn’t work in the dimensional siege server.
Fixed issue in which clan permissions wouldn’t work normally in the dimensional siege server.
Fixed issue in which you only see a blank window when talking with the Dimensional Emissary as a normal clan member (not clan leader) in the dimensional server siege.
Changed the respawn time of the Nerva Orc Merchant from 15 minutes to 90 minutes.
If you have any questions about the changes taking place during tomorrow's maintenance, please feel free to post them here.
yeah why you continue make custom ninja patches guys? as i know on korean servers there is no such a nerfing of mobs. i will not QQ but this is rediculus. so let make calculations where u can make money:
from bosses drop is - bless enchant and unbind (useless)
from normal drop - u make 1000 adena in best option
from quests - only under 85 not awakened , and money are low too
from kartia reward - u got stone and fragment (useless again no more bound)
but not only money are fuu.cked up, drop is too..
u cant get any boss jewel becouse they stop drop , maybe only with drop rune. you are lucky if u have istina/octavis shirt
Uhm ... isn't better just delete Merchants? Honestly i have no idea why your tech team or those people who care about bugs, bother with something like this. There is lot of significant problems in this game and you guys "fix" respawn of mobs in Gainak.
And because you block thread about Halloween Adena Art event i will ask you here - yes, you don't ask us where from we are, but in event rules it's very specific. Or you want us broke rules?
As this picture is showing, they released epeisodeon on 22 may 2013
and on 10.10.2013 they applied this patch. This is 5 months after the epeisodeon that we not play still.
So this patch should normal be released delayed as the epeisodeon+5 months ,not now before it.

If NCWest would handle the bots like they do at Innova they wouldn't had needed to cut down quest rewards till lv80 by 75%, they wouldn't had needed cut down adena drops by monsters by 25-45%. On the side-note, ever since C3 adena drop been adjusted each update to create a more even drop amount all across the map. Also, ever since C5 all drops on all raids have been gotten lower chance to counter farm teams. But I have to admit, having a droprate for an epic jewel being 1/200 (thanks Juji for the test) while before Lindvior it was more like 1/50 is insane, especially with no other drop than enchants/unbinds. The lack of material and recipe drops and spoil from all mobs is making crafting already hard enough increasing the price on gear unneededly high.
Anyway... All over the Episodion patch notes is stated that Raiders Crossroads is adjusted to fit a better play experience. The Nerva Merchant should be a reward on top of your grind, not the only thing you grind on. Stop b-ing around about one mob and start playing the game the correct way; hardcore grind. Also, I rather spend 3hrs in Hellfire, Orbis or Guilotine than doing 3hrs of RC. Raiders has no side drop, no spoils and skimpy adena if you don't kill a Merchant every time it pops.
Soon the mysterious mobs in Gainak will be nerfed too, so brace yourselves.
These merchants needed a nerf, I know ppl that were farming like 600m/day from them, which is quite stupid, because there is no other such mob in the game.
Otherwise yea, expect the adena pack in the nearest L2store, very soon.
So after all the server problems and issues over the past years another NCsoft blow below the belt.
How do you expect high players to gather money for dark eternal stones / OE skills or anything? Merchants were the only good source to supply funds for that.
Instead you will just add more A gemstones to your paytowinstore.
The last source of R99 weapons is now mega-uber nerfed ...
You seem to forget the whole point of Lindvior was to return to the roots of L2; farm months to craft gear. It's just sad that the Korean Dev team made the spoil and drop tables so awful that getting materials and recipes (and even the recipes to craft materials) are way to hard to get and mobs especially 85+ rarely give drop besides adena. Try to compare monster drop pre-Lindvior to current drop. At least before Lindvior you were able to go kill mobs in i.e. Hellfire and get some side-drop other than adena. All the R99 parts I have in my warehouse are from pre-Lindvior.
Last night, 3 hours grind in Hellfire and our party ended up with 1x Ama Stormer part. Before Lindvior you would've had 10 Ama Parts and a truckload of materials.
Also, NCWest is jumping into Episodion without notice, a true ninja patch. In Episodion a lot of things in Raiders Crossroads are getting nerfed and/or changed to increase activity in Land of Chaos and move people from Raiders to Hellbound.
and w/o gainak there is no other spots / places / ways how to make adena? i'm right?
Seed of Hellfire gives more adena overall than Raiders. Excluding the Merchants. The only reason people cry about Raiders now is because Raiders is fulled with level 95 people getting major exp while not having adena (because fast leveling) to supply R99.
You are aware people been requesting for long time the ability to buy adrena. Plus only a blind idiot would not see all the spam in some towns to know pay to win already going on.

Vali, can you please answer my question?
I did buy a Prestige Pack today, after the successful transaction, I didn't receive the message with the activation code.
Is there something wrong with the Prestige Pack system?
I did write to support team too, about 5 hours ago, but still I didn't get answer.

hate of bots in gainak !?

Returning Raid Bosses – Some popular bosses from Lineage II’s past will return to the world of Aden
the valiance site doesn't display correctly on internet explorer so you can't select the "do not show again" checkbox. so you would be stuck at a black screen unable to navigate through the lineage2.com site. it does display correctly in firefox or chrome though...

I don't know if it's worse to be on the 22% that still use IE.. or the 17% that use iPhones.. :D
Some forum user could update me on that part of the update last Wednesday changed something about certain awakened classes.
What I could read of Wynn Summoner, Feoh Wizard and Aeore Healer complaining of status character, now on to the fact that the set heavy uses, sometimes by diminishing the status of something, etc..
