There are other changes listed, but google translation isn't that great.

Seems there'll be some new type of augmentation.
What.
Way to kill the game.
yup and those skills are lvl 101.. there will be new skills at 99 and 100 as part of an improved nobles quest involving also your dual class

btw for the drama llama's under us at this latest korean update adena drops got nerved even more then the one we (ncwest) are still to get so take current drops divide it by 10 2x to get the approx new drops ^^"

So you're saying if they drop 500 adena here, they drop 5 adena there?

I've read that the L2KR opened a poll to the community that vaguely opened the option to 'more exp' vs. 'more drops'.

Still if that's the case, what crap. :0
The result of that poll was 69% for faster leveling and 31% for more items:
http://lineage2.plaync.com/promotion/l2lasico/season1/index

The players' wish was implemented in a first step by opening Hellbound to all levels for power-leveling with "Adddenda" (live in Korea on April 16), and in "Infinite Odyssey: Prelude to the Journey" (live in Korea on June 25) the exp requirement for 100 -> 101 is only 3,487,269,720,000, vs. 4,221,464,047,611 for 99 -> 100:

And Znipoo is right. Here are screenshots from the Russian Ertheia PTS:

The additional drop reduction in Prelude concerns only the post 85 areas though, with the exception of the Bloody Swampland and the Altar of Evil:

So the level cap is being increased? No point in catching up I guess, back to normal life!

The level penalty will once again destroy players harder than equipment disparities.

Not even to talk what time will be Etheria patch notes and etc... this what you talk here will be in korea after half or one year or maybe more.

You need to talk about it and be aware if it, especially drop nerf's, you do realize we take and even harder nerf bat to our drops than even Korea does right ? Besides which, we get our updates roughly six months after they do, so we're not talking years in advance here.

The only pointless thing about talking about future updates is us expecting to get exactly the same update, we always get the bad parts, but hardly ever get all the good parts~~
Dayum those koreans seems no lifer :D(hes already -25% to lvl 101) oh this game look way better than l2 that we play.....

In the 7th quest of the Honors series for the new high-grade Noblesse you get 193,815,839,115 exp as reward (in addition to the exp you get while hunting for all the "tests"):

The video was made on Lionel, the server where all the PvP enthusiasts in Korea have migrated, very roughly analogous to Naia with SilentHorrors, Einheit etc., i.e. definitely not your average players. Here is a Google-translateable report from the Siege shown in the video:
http://www.inven.co.kr/webzine/news/?news=113727&site=lineage2

The honorable 놀로옴/Joker, the Orc Soultaker from whose point of view the video was made, is from the ElkaAlliance, one of the main powers on the server, and has in the meantime reached lvl 101:

To say it again, there is no level cap. The update is not for nothing called "Infinite Odyssey" :D

Idk why i did think the cap was 101 :/.
Btw i hear about that kind of stuff(ppl moving to 1 server to pvp then spread out to pve again) didnt think it was true :D
I had to honestly wonder when the level cap would finally be eliminated..I guess that's my answer lol.

I'm really not looking forward to the nerf hammer again. I think and this is my guess here that adena might very well be phased out or *dramatic pause*.....Adena packages in the L2 store or gear. NC would make a killing there,but that just crazy guessing.

Seems like the game is getting recycled in a sense that there's a "higher Nobel". Ah well could be interesting.
i think it might be good idea to nerf adena to death when they will balance it with instance where you get rewards like alot of materials instead of exp and sp
and i think there is one already in korea if im not wrong
maybe someone can tell us more about it
sorry for bad english :D

There will be an instance with no exp, no sp, no drops, but materials reward. Still wont make up for the loss of adena, and still won't fix the broken economy when everyone saved up billions through years when you could make 700-900kk daily very easy. You'll see the adena sink when the new talisman will appear :rolleyes:
That instance (http://www.inven.co.kr/webzine/news/?news=108330&site=lineage2&page=2) was introduced on April 16, whereas our cut-off point is April 2, two weeks before that:
http://boards.rochand.com/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1136&start=840#p26896
Here are the patch notes for the export version - the Infinite Refuge is not there:
http://gametsg.techbang.com/lineage2/index.php?view=article&articleid=2353660

Now the question is, when will we get Addenda over here to make up for the 85% reduction (https://4gameforum.ru/showthread.php?t=781862&p=13353583&viewfull=1#post13353583) in the amount of dropped adena in the Ertheia update? :D

Answer is they won't, NC is totally clueless when it comes to running a F2P game model that works, over here even more so than over there, we talked about it in this thread boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=268056, once they have taken adena and drops out of the equation everyone will be totally dependant on the store to advance in game and that will be the final nail in L2's coffin, over here at least.
omg, no level cap O_o
so in the future big botters/big wallet ppl will be lv110,115,120.... while common legit players still be 98/99....
unbelievable

The biggest reason they have to implement this is so people will always have a reason to buy vitality items from the store, they put no thought what soever into in game balance.

That level penalty rule for PvP loom's very large in the future for the haves and the have nots.
Not only Vitality items. The main goal of the removal of the level cap is to keep people playing so that their time points (the payment method of choice for the vast majority in Korea) keep ticking down while they are exping.

The original Glory Days plan was that everybody should reach max. level and then PvP to their heart's content, but it has turned out that this is not sufficient to finance the Lineage 2 department. The majority of players in Korea is not interested in PvP and simply quit when they had reached everything that could be reached - which led to the server merge (http://lineage2.plaync.com/board/notice/view?articleId=579658&page=2) of June 11 - and a few hundred players logging in for Siege resp. Dimensional Siege once per week can't feed developers, GMs and sales department.

Now, with the new high-grade Honors (http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%EC%95%84%EB%84%88%EC%8A%A4) noblesse, for which you need to complete a series of 15 quests, the developers gave everybody something meaningful to do again. Then there are the new skills (http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%EC%9D%B8%ED%94%BC%EB%8B%88%ED%8A%B8+%EC%98%A4%EB% 94%94%EC%84%B8%EC%9D%B4%3A+%EC%97%AC%EC%A0%95%EC%9 D%98+%EC%84%9C%EB%A7%89+%ED%81%B4%EB%9E%98%EC%8A%A 4#hd100970) at lvl 101 to aim for ...
Infinte Odyssey :D
Some updated info.

Upon the completion of the "advanced noble quest" you will be able to learn the following skills:

Digg community of Honors: STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIT, MEN, CHA increased

Blessing of Honors: To all of the party members 'Blessing of Noblesse' given
to the effect. Consumes 40 Spirit Ores.

Honors of leaf blocks: Selected to go to the party. Consumes Spirit Ores 100.

Favor Of Honors: One hour of the selected target acquisition Exp, SP increases. consumption Spirit Ores 40.

Fate of Honors: Increased LUC

Thurman Battle Potion: 'Battle of health poultices moment' to summon 5. Decisions made - R Grade 40 consumption

They apply to main and dual class.

Obvious translation errors, but you can get an idea of what some of the skills do.


Seems that archers will be able to create arrows/bolts with boosted stats.

There will be some sort of Dimensional Raid server.

Hero weapon stats, hero skills, items and abilities have been adjusted.

Tauti Weapons stats have been changed.

Dragon Claw stats have been changed. The weapon can now be used in Olympiad and Ceremony of Chaos. It's active skills will be unusable in Olympiad.

Going for end game? But... maybe they forget Water and Dark Epic Dragons? :confused:

You forgot the dragon of Light, and yes she does nice things in the lore like questioning whether or not some things should really be done, but she stills goes along with her.

Aulakiria don't did sacrifice? I don't remember right the history :c
The strongest dragons were ordered to be at the front of the army of demons to fight against the gods. Hearing this, Aulakiria, the dragon of light, looked at Shilen with sad eyes and spoke.

"Mother, you don't know what you are doing. Do you really want the eternal destruction of the gods? Do you really want your father, mother and siblings to fall down on the ground in pools of their own blood?"

Her appeal did not change Shilen's mind.

At last, the demons invaded the palace where the gods lived, and a fierce battle began. The six dragons destroyed everything in the gods' palace. Even the gods were intimidated by the incredible power of the dragons. The battle seemed destined to continue forever. Yet, if the war did not stop, the world would cease to exist, and all living things would be annihilated.

Numerous god's messengers and demons were destroyed or vanished. Every day there was thunder and lightning, as strong forces clashed violently in the sky. Giants and the other living creatures of earth trembled as they observed the terrible fight in the sky.

The fierce battle continued for several years, and eventually the balance gradually tilted towards one side. In spite of suffering many injuries, Einhasad and Gran Kain, had stronger powers and destroyed many demons.

The dragons kept fighting, though they were deeply wounded and riddled with scars. Their fatigue became more and more apparent. After a time, it seemed like the war would come to an end with the extermination of Shilen's army. In the end, the dragons spread their wings and flew to the earth to escape. The surviving demons followed. The gods wanted to kill the retreating army. However, due to their own injuries, all they could do was watch as the dragons and demons departed.

As Shilen's children perished one by one and lost the war, Shilen could not stand her sadness. She invented The Underworld and ruled over it.

Most of the demons died, none of the dragons.
So still have 3 Dragons for come :c

First year of L2, Antharas
2 years after Valakas
9 Years after Lindvior
16 years after? Fafurions?

30 years of L2 for all 6 epics Dragon? ;c

And about no CAP lvl, I think will be like....

100 ~> 101 = 1 month
101 ~> 102 = 2 months
102 ~> 103 = 4 months
103 ~> 104 = 6 months
104 ~> 105 = 8 months (it's arround lvl 99 to 105 in 2 year)
...
106 ~> 107 = 1 year

And this time for ppls with runa probably, for "normal" players will be double or more time :c

Dumbest thing was, they already had the area for the water dragon set up before Valakas was even a twinkle in their eyes, its still there, or the way leading to it in the GoE, but when they lost the original L2 team a lot of what was planned out already was scrapped.

Like we will never see the Bellion deserts and the great plains and the other lands that lie beyond FG they had planned out. Beyond FG was also where the dark dragon was to have had its abode, so as you can see we are missing two dragons and a whole 1/3 of a continent or more ( looks closer to 1/2 ) that were already all planned out, but the new ninnies they brought in couldn't bring it to completion, instead we got Valakas, which we already knew where he was going to be as well, and they gave us Kameal's~~

The concept art for all this is still out there to tease us with what we are probably never going to see, still can't believe I haven't seen the gates at FG open up all these years later. :mad:
Also, there's a raid boss whose description reveals the name of the Dark Dragon.
If only I remember it now...

So maybe, the six name is...

Earth Dragon Antharas
Fire Dragon Valakas
Wind Dragon Lindvior
Water Dragon Fafurion
Holy Dragon Aulakiria
Dark Dragon Skellrus
Yes, Skellrus it is :D
