There are no "must purchase to participate" items this week. Yes, we are adding Valentine themed items but they're not required for the event at all.
Nice, bugs with near 0 impact corrected.
What about the real ones?

Vali told that in march they will have a big bugfix pack.
Add again ron blunt to droplist in fortuna.
Add trace of kartia labyrint in droplist of kartia solo.
Rework Orc Merchants to be immune of tank reflect and stop autobots in Gainak, also remove the useless crystal farm in Seed of Anihillhation, the same bot of since god launch still farming these crystals, i don't know a regular player who spend time farming this items.

can we get an example how does the magic evasion works?
...also remove the useless crystal farm in Seed of Anihillhation, the same bot of since god launch still farming these crystals, i don't know a regular player who spend time farming this items.

maybe not now, but I did it a lot in my early start. With almost none adena at all, I made a +6 Immo set (using mentee coins to buy enchants) and farmed those stones till I putted that set 3x120 (2h off at spares intervals, and my favourite soundtrack list on background, fighting that bot-race with those 24/7 bots there). Worth enough to let me go till 96 without worries.

the possible solution is already there: just make the mobs spawned by the elemental seeds (when you extract them) be able to see through dm/shadow step/dance of shadows/hide/stealth skills. I dont think that those buffless bot will stand against them much longer.
Vali told that in march they will have a big bugfix pack.

It's probably just rumour, but I hear it from many people. A big bug-fix in March is maybe due to the fact that NCKorea wants all off the world (all regions) to be on Dimensional Strangers update before the 10th Anniversary, which is end of April.

A big bug-fix in March will only most likely introduce first parts of the Brooch system that were left out of Valiance due to heavy criticism in Korea and cleans up errors that can make patching Valiance to Dimensional Strangers harder.

If they would've cared they would've fixed major bugs like the Mail System returning mails upon claiming, Kartia Solo NPC's attacking the player etc.

Also I wonder, when is NCWest getting the patch that Innova has that places skills like Mind Eye, Quick Fire, Berserker, Frenzy etc. on a separate buff bar to avoid people to over buff themselfs?
Cool a free event. Thanks a bunch NCSoft.
finally!! thats what this servers need thanks Ncsoft :)


fun free events like we used to have that the general community can enjoy while still having l2store updates great direction keep it up

They are listening, it's just things don't happen right away. Ideas probably have to be approved before deciding when and what we'll have.

I don't expect EVERY event to be store free,but little small events, even for a weekend that all can enjoy without the store I think is doable.
I was going to ignore the event, till I read the page.

Well done, NC, well done. I love my marshmallow sigil.

I think it's a fun event. Not 100% store related and even some sale items
I wasn't being sarcastic, I really love the silliness of the sugary weapons :p Along with my Sea Horse retributer it makes for added cuteness!

Funny considering that this fix was introduced a few weeks ago...

I meant the valentines stones.

I wish they made the Santa's Antler's 1 accessory slot and Rudolph's Nosts 1 accessory slot.

With perma Valentines stones, Linnda would be the super adorable Kamael KFC reindeer.

Now I'm imagining my Falcon with the Santa hat and Rudolph's Nose... He'd look silly and cool at the same time. :3
