General Discussion Started Last reply 7 posts
Anyone know when next update is and where any (if any) information can be found on it.
It will be in July or August. We are always one or two months later than Japan:

Information can be found here:

First I want to thank you and express my appreciation for the hard work being done in the rochand forums that is offered generously to the L2 community.But...the important info that is inside the various topics (say Ertheia update for example) is very hard to be tracked, because they are very long dicsussions with opinions, speculation, etc

So it would be great if there was some kind of sticky post being updated with only verified information from the Korean server, without further commenting.That would help us find the necessary information a lot easier.Don't get me wrong I myself enjoy reading almost everything inside the rochand forum beacause most of your members are L2 veterans with vast knowledge of the game and you can always grab a bit by reading their posts.Still some sort of sorting the information would prove very useful.

Thanks again and keep up the good work. :)
The problem is that things constantly change. Like for example the Ertheias are not really good at what they are doing, so expecially the Gravity Ranker was improved several times:

Alchemy was also significantly changed, with the duration of the Love Potion effect being reduced from 2 minutes to 15 seconds:

We have no way to know what we will get.

For confirmed information I would recommend the Japanese preview site:

This is the export version, and it should be more or less what we will get :)

The Japanese text about the new race is one single picture. You need a so-called Optical Character Recognition programm to convert that into a text file which you can then run through Google Translator. When you enter "OCR" in the Google search mask you get a number of programs, but since I never use them, I don't know which ones are trustworthy and which ones will download a trojan onto your computer. I guess your safest bet is to try and go via the links provided by Wikipedia:

Edit:
When you right-click into the page and then choose "View source code" or whatever the Windows option is in English, you will get copy/pastable text lines :)
