Standard server maintenance will be performed.

If you have any questions about the changes taking place during tomorrow's maintenance, please feel free to post them here.
Something about Bots, CoC, auto-targeting, NCoin events, no drops, mail returns, AH broken etc, etc, etc. /addwaterfalloftears. Am I missing something... ah I'm sure someone will finish that up.

Anyway, so when are we getting teaser information for the next update?

Any information about changing our main class to ertheia race (for example from feoh wizzard to saiha wizzard) without losing our current level? Same thing as chaos essence but for race & same specialization as we used before.

Also (posting em here because I know they will be read eventually and even answered if they won't include the keywords as bot/coc/rtm/etc):

Nurse appearance stone;
dance cards like aion (?)
Fixing the instances as antharas expedition/istina/etc when someone stays inside and the instance never resets until someone gets inside again and pk them;
Mail system which took 14 hours of extended maintenance still returns mails, hence it's not fixed

You didn't even get to try out the new classes yet, why do you want this service?
Becides I believe they won't be in the same archtypes as the current tyrr warrior/feoh wizard classes.

I've tested both ertheia classes on korean official. Also alchemy is OP, i've already managed to save up loads of mats for the upcomming update

Why don't you demand that Maestro and Dominator become free classes as well?

There's a reason that race change hasn't been implemented.

Contact me then, This dorf is interested and wants more infoz :D
What about ppl take your target with hide?
this game and pathetic what difficulty setting her cerymonial VALI? by chance you are not seeing nearly all players complaining it in? ta harder every day to play in this game is that you just do not see that this game're going broke?

you never answer questions from players because they are afraid? bots or under?
Contact me then, This dorf is interested and wants more infoz :D

Quick rundown for those who didnt use search or read the rochand forums.

There are 2 classes, one melee and one melee ranged nuker. Both classes use alchemy instead of crystalization. Alchemy is useful for creating powerful existing versions of potions and dyes as well as new unqiue potions like love potions which gives a short boost to offensive stats. Alchemy is terribly expensive though and most of it isn't worth the cost.

The melee class is a tyrr with higher damage and lower defense. They are evasive and move quickly but their distance closing skills are the worst of any melee DD class. Like tyrrs they use stuns and knockdowns and rely on debuffs to quickly win fights.

The mage class is a dagger that uses magic relying on faster, more powerful close range nukes with higher critical rate and power than feoh wizards. They have critical damage reduction skills which is good against daggers but daggers will still 1-2 shot you anyway. ;) to make up for their low defense and close range they constantly hide which will make them the most picked class simply for the troll factor against those who can't see players in hide. They heavily rely on CC skills and hide to win fights.

Yeah thats it.

So its like the Kamael all over again.

Basically. Only unlike the kamael, they don't start off absolutely terrible.
Um I do read rochand, wanted infoz on alchemy can't find enough there, but thx for the summery, some will find it usefull :)

CoC 24/7 .... http://gifsound.com/?gif=https%3A%2F%2F24.media.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ma ub872xou1r03eaxo1_r1_500.gif&v=tXEtIlfoTCU&s=16

Fix it...
Cuki marakushi!


New update will solve this problems?
- Auto-CoC
- Auto-PvP

a) No
Well we don't need new update with old problems

b) Yes
Hum... sounds good, we want this update


For people who believe in b)... Cuki marakushi

Based on history of NC NA, top teams (aka bots) will be 99/99 16ap in 30 days... so this is a fun game. For people like Juji and Vali who don't play this game only receive a good profit every month this is not a problem, if server is online and money in pocket its everythinig good.

30 days after new update we will see the same in our servers... #l2zfun

Except that guy is ridicously stacked with +10 (probably) pvp set, +16 pvp retri, full lvl 5 jewels, all epics including lindvior, new dyes (+15 INT +15 CHA). Probably the most stacked Ertheia in Korea right now.

Compare this super stacked feoh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyysxdTp3iw

With this decently geared Ertheia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjrPHbFUqQc

Who hits more? :D

Only advantage of Ertheia is the OP hide, which will make it a beast in oly/coc (inb4 Figga reroll).

An archer with that level of gear is much, much worse.

QQ more. If there weren't botters, there'd be no-lifers who can play 14 hrs/day and you would QQ cuz you CHOSE to have a life outside l2. Play L2 for what it is, not for what you wish it was. Anyone can bot you know. Anyone at all. So technically, it's fair.

(I gave up QQ'ing years ago. Now I just play.)
It would be so lovely to see just one thread (just one!!) in which the first post after the OP was about the subject and a general moan about anything and everything. Perhaps if as a community we dealt with one subject at a time things could be discussed more constructively.
Server maintenance is complete. Log in and have a great week!

You will find a full list of the things an Ertheia can synthesize with Alchemy about 1/3 down here:

This was changed over time, so you should also check this thread:
http://boards.rochand.com/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1180
Then flip a coin or roll a dice to determine where along the timeline our cutoff point is :D
Why even require targeting anymore... half the classes can barely ever be targeted anyway, wtf.

Playing as a tank, my life seems to revolve around standing there like an idiot until some stupid effect wears off.

t took a few updates to make them OP. Now Ertheia just start off OP right off the bat.

Marketing and business. Shame on you for turning games into a terrible, unfun, pay to win, spending fest :<

Actually they're not as OP as you think. In a 1v1 setting yes they are strong and are intended that way as well as being proficient soloers but in parties well...

PVE-wise their AOE capabilities are terrible so they won't be taken to aoe parties to do anything other than leach. In single target pve they don't halfkill and the sayhas seer, while doing more damage than feohs, still don't compare to daggers, summoners, gravity rangers and tyrrs and the gravity rangers, while doing very high dps, don't as much as daggers WITHOUT halfkills. With halfkills theres no contest for anyone.

PVP-wise the sayhas seers will get wrecked by any party with an archer or scripting or any good parties that cycle debuff immunity.

The gravity rangers rely on debuffs to deal high damage to which without them they only do as much as tyrrs with boost which is ignorable for the most part. Aside from that both classes are susceptible to stuns and paralyzes so daggers, archers, STs will all take them out easily. As a bonus these are also the most played DD classes with ST being the most played tank.

To be good with the sayhas seer you'll need really stacked gear
to be good with the gravity ranger you'll need really stacked skills or a really good script if you play (or should I say dont play) that way and even then your usefulness won't amount to what archers and daggers will be.

Archers hit harder and chain stun.
daggers chain stun more than they do now as well as making it easier to 1 shot you from behind.
these are the classes you need to worry about.

Have fun.

Kay, I just made the question, didn't want to get aggressive answers; I was just curious if this would work with chaos essense.

To give you a non-aggressive answer, it would not work because Gravity Ranker/그라비티 렝커 and Sayha's Seer/사*********하즈 시어 are not the same archetypes as Tyrr Warriors resp. Feoh Wizards. The two Ertheia classes are two new, separate "archetypes", with their own Olympiad categories and own Heroes. You can see them in the second, white link-row here all the way at the right side:

Thanks mate, I knew that I'll reroll soon since my adenas are getting reduced day by day from the bssr consume on my feoh (since 1 bssr equals to 780 adena yet again 1 ssr costs 100 adena or so), making mages a very expensive class to play with.

Feohs theoretically have good shot efficiency. Don't level single-target. AoE. You get more bang for your buck that way.


SSR is cheap because a most melee classes cannot AoE the way a Feoh can, they do a lot more single target white damage.


I don't have an issue with shots on my Feoh.


The class that's really bitten by it is Summoners with the useless range procs and debuff spam.
You dont need to use spiritshots on a summoner in pve.

I didn't say you did. We all know you can play the class 75% AFK in a party over half the time.

But if you don't want all your heals to be super slow (esp. balance and group servitor heal) or to do practically half damage with Nukes and Mark Retriever then you're going to be using Spiritshots.

It depends on Where/How you're leveling. Sometimes I want to do more than /PetAttack, and I don't feel like actively playing 2-3 characters to "solo."

My shots are cheaper anyways. All my toons have the Common SPS, BSPS, and SS R Grade recipes registered so I craft my own, which is less adena sink than buying them off other players.

So a class is not really "bitten" by something it doesn't need to use.

Heals aren't slow at 1600-1999 cast speed without spirit shots which any summoner that's not a scrub alt/bot should have.

Nuking is nice, but not necessary to get the job done. Even mark of weakness isn't necessary due to crippling attack and lumi getting the job done handily.

If you want to do more than /pet attack, then go AOE.
