Merlot: You shall not pass!

I will never understand why after so many years of lineage being online, still no1 reads the NPC dialogues...

"We can only send you on Saturdays where there are NO DIMENTIONAL CASTLE SIEGES between 19.00 - 22.00"

Aren't Dim Sieges tomorrow?
because of bad translaction
how can you translate the word "no" wrong? its just a matter of trust. i trust NPC that says NO more than NCWest that says 20th of June :P
Well this was hard miss lead to a lots of people. Next time, better if NC read again what he write to their news.
Dimensional Raid info says:
"Teleportation to the Raid is available every other Saturday between 19:00 ~ 22:00 Server Time"

I am a bit confused here... I thought this event was a all-servers join at the same time but it means that this time server they talk about is for everyone personal servers? e.g magmeld to me?
If you check the official announcement it says -

Teleport to the Dimensional Raid this Saturday, June 20 and subsequently every other Saturday to compete with other players in defeating all the village raid bosses.

That says to me once again NC Soft has ****ed up ! I along with may people had a full pt ready for the event - I am getting used to NC Soft being inept
Juji or someone please fill us in on what THE HELL is going on with this dim raid?!

Yes, when is it, est time please?
Epic NCsoft fail. You officially state that the Dim Raid will be on June the 20th. You get hundreds of people on all the servers waiting to port in. But according to the NPC the raid is NOT available on Dim Siege weekends. LOL.
it's Saturday, they don't have the funds to support the stuff they added!! lol
Like 200+ people at the npc waiting to go into dim that was said was at the 20th at 1900 hours and we cant go in:(
Seriously why post "server time" when each server has its own time. The correct way to tell someone a time is with time zones, such as EST/CST/PST/GMT. Wasting a thousand player's times, all 99+.

Did i mention it only stays for 30days?
So much fail ncsoft, waste over 2 hours of everyone time. Good fin job
Hello all, we looking into why the raid did not start when it was suppose to. More information to come.

Can you just tell us what 'server time' is? I ask because each server has its own server time, but this would be for all at once, sooo what is the 'master server time'?
As obvious as it is already, it does not look like the Dimensional Raid will happen today. We've reached out to the devs to for additional clarity on the issue. Will post more information when it is available.

I will verify to see how it applies to this event.
Yet another screw up. Can't you guys get anything right these days?? Get ready for cat buff guys.. lmao.
Gludio, Elven Village, and Orc Village 88/93/98 Raidbosses spawn at 21:00 server time. Use your brains and minus 2 hours from the time you know they spawn at..



As far as the Dim raid not working.. A day or two of 50% bonus exp would be appreciated for this mixup. PLEASE do that instead of angel cat buff. I will even go out and buy a bunch of exp runes/pots if you did it for compensation, NCSoft, and everyone would be a lot happier with that as compensation too!



Ofcourse I'm not sure if it is a lot more work for you to do that than angel cat buff. Hopefully it isn't, but if it is I'd understand getting stuck with the useless angel cat buff then ;p.

Sad. This was promoted for the last 2.5 weeks. I hope that you can compensate lvl 99+ players better than with 30% runes. Maybe just give us all the 9 atelia crystals we would have received.
NPC Merlot decided he didn't want to teleport players to the Dimensional Server despite being cooperative during testing. We were not able to manually set Merlot to teleport players. Unforuntately, we will not be able to attempt to experience the Dimensional Raid until the next scheduled raid on July 4th.

Ouch.. what a mean NPC.

Hime, July 4th is in two weeks. This means it's again a Dimensional Siege weekend.

Here is the original Korean description of the Dimensional Raid:

In the 3rd line of the explanation box it says clearly:
차원 오픈 기간 - 차원 공성전********* 없는 주 토요일 19 ~ 22시
Dimensional Gap opening time - Saturdays where there are no Dimensional Castle Sieges between 19.00 - 22.00

Unless the developers have deliberately designed a third version of the Dimensional Raid specifically for NCWest, you are going to have the same problem again on Independence Day. Wise players should gather at NPC Merlot next Saturday, June 27, while keeping in mind that the Dimensional Raid starts 1 hour before the Dimensional Siege (20:00~22:00) as it refers to everybody's server:

Hime, July 4th is in two weeks. This means it's again a Dimensional Siege weekend.
And it's also a major US holiday, so I doubt there will be staff to supervise the event. If I were NCwest, I wouldn't let people get excited about a July 4th Dim raid.
I personally don't think that there will be a Dimensinal Raid on July 4th. When you look at Merlot's dialogue, we clearly got the Korean version as of July 30, 2014 (the original version (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+%EC%8B%9C%EC%8A%A4%ED%85%9 C#hd100972) as of June 25, 2014 led to a total breakdown and had to be scrapped). We simply have to face the fact that the person who nowadays does the translations for NCWest has, because of a traumatic childhood or whatever, a blind spot when it comes to the syllable 없/"not" (see also the Adventurer's Mark mistranslation (http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=273434#10)). They really managed to translate the word "no" wrong :D
Id rather pvp the gm's staff for an event, hope they dont go red :)

and Juji watch out cause you would be the 1st I went after in PvP.

or maybe it should be called PvGM :)

It is scheduled to happen every other Saturday starting with Saturday, June 20th as the first so the next one would be July 4th. We could talk to the team to see if this is something they can move. If we can and will change it, it likely won't be put into effect until after the next Dimensional Raid.

As for the mishap with the Dimensional Raid this past Saturday, Tersi's Herald will be available after Wednesday's maintenance and will hang around until Thursday.


Tersi’s Herald buffs include: XP/SP +100% for 60 minutes.
There is no limit on how often you claim this buff during the 24 hours.
100% XP/SP buff does not stack with XP Buff 50% item. Tersi’s Herald buff can stack with all other XP items and Runes.

Any word on what the server time is yet?

The server time is based on the Dimensional Server, which is in the same time as Chronos -- GMT -2.

Edit: Correct the time.

I am not sure whether you understand the problem. It is indeed true that the Dimensional Raid is scheduled to happen every other Saturday, but the starting point in both the first and the second version is a Saturday where there is no Dimensional Siege (차원 공성전********* 열리지 않는 주 토요일 (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+%EC%8B%9C%EC%8A%A4%ED%85%9 C#hd100972) resp. 차원 공성전********* 없는 주 토요일 (http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%EC%B0%A8%EC%9B%90+%EB%A0%88%EC%9D%B4%EB%93%9C#hd1 00888)). While it is theoretically possible that the developers have designed for NCWest a special version where the Raid happens on the same weekened as the Siege, this is rather improbable. In the past we mostly got what Korea got (unlike for example Russia, where there are significant changes to the game).

I strongly suggest that you contact the development team in Seoul, linking my posts in this thread. Until you hear back from them, I would recommend everbody who is interested in the Dimensional Raid to stop by at Merlot this Saturday and check whether he lets you pass into the Raid Dimension. At worst you have lost a few Olympiad matches, at best you have gained a few Atelia Energy Crystals :)
Any news on what was the problem?
Is it certain that it will not happen again during the nex cycle?
The server time is based on the Dimensional Server, which is in the same time as Chronos -- GMT -2.

Edit: Correct the time.

So it will spawn July 4th at 1900 GMT-2

I attempt conversion to CST and I come up with 4pm CST, is this correct?

Yidao, thank you for the explanation. The team just verified there will be indeed a Dimensional Raid this Saturday, June 27. ;)

So it will spawn July 4th at 1900 GMT-2

Correct. I will add a timetable to the raid guide.

Better edit the NPC to show current time and raid time related to the player's time, like the Castle Heralds.

This way everyone would know when it starts.
i think Yidao should be offered a position on the L2 NA localization team :)

Tersi dced on chromos server at 2:45am est. Wasn't even up for a total of 14 hours. :(


Thank you for adding this instead of angel cat buff though.
Restart server. no Terzi NPC. BUFFS NOW
