nothing special

1st april? wow so we have still alot of time

dates are kinda mixed

rest of the instances will require still the same number of players? lol?

ps: immortal wynns with deep wallet are coming
Have you messed up critical damage modifier of weapons again in this version?

When will bows/xbow get back to 2x? All other weapons had their ups and downs, but bows\xbows still nerfed up in 1.4x~.

And you never tested my request for this in the Labs. Actually, you deleted it back then.


The following repeatable quests will be changed to daily quests:

lol changing game again because of bots instead of getting rid of them.
Good

Reduced the number of waves in Kartia’s Labyrinth.
o Party Labyrinth has been reduced from 7 to 5 waves, and Solo Labyrinth from 7 to 3 waves.

[Kelbim's Bow] 1457 322 ---> 1592 352 (cause I have one LOL)



Bad

No new dailies for sub 99 people?

no new skills for othell fortune seekers again :confused:

Im tired of Kartia !
level 99s can now do the lvl 100+ ashen instance which is cool and wynns look more op this update
A few questions concerning the Soul Crystal System:

- Can you give us a rough idea about the exchange rate of old vs. new Soul Crystals. Like for example I have a great number of Stage 14 Soul Crystals from 3rd class change quests. Do I get one new Stage 2 Soul Crystal for one old Stage 14 Soul Crystal, or do I have to hand in several 14ers for a new one? Two 14ers for Stage 2, five 14ers for Stage 5?

- Just to make sure: applied SAs on weapons will stay? Especially the ones that don't exist in the new system, like for example Critical Stun on the lower Polearms?


And concerning the new Bosses, why the spelling "Geork" instead of "Georg" and "Burnstein" instead of "Bernstein"? Those Embryo officers are obviously from Germany.


Something else:
In the Clan section you mention the Lineage 2 Assist app (http://mobile.plaync.com/app/lineage2). Is this an editing error or will we also get this?

I want to know this too.
I made/bought S & S80 Polearms & Fist Weapons
just to have the Crit Stun SA on them.
And my question is will the {pvp} option stay on A~s80 weapons?
And my question is will the {pvp} option stay on A~s80 weapons?

It is no longer possible to bestow ‘PVP’ effects on A - S80-grade items.
o ‘PVP’ effects can be removed from existing items:D

What is that? Is it some sorf customization app?

I'd rather they all just come out at once. It's how long and boring Kartia is, that makes it suck.
What is that? Is it some sorf customization app?

It is an app that allows players to access the servers from a mobile phone (I personally suspect this is one of the reasons for the frequent server crashes in Korea). There were continually features added. This is the original version from the patch that is called "Underground" by NCWest:
http://boards.rochand.com/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1473&start=80#p31248
And this is the current version in Korea, where you can for example check prices in the Auction House and Private Stores:
http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%EB%A6%AC%EB%8B%88%EC%A7%802+%EC%96%B4%EC%8B%9C%EC %8A%A4%ED%8A%B8

I suspect that this slipped into the patch notes because somebody just translated the Korean text without verifying it on the NCWest QA server. On update day we will see :)
nokia ftw

that something with those big eyes is annoying as hell
so what in this patch leaves me wanting to play?
Anyone knows from what level ertheia can make Flash Grenade? What is cooldown? Can be sent to another char on account? Is it working on oly or not?
Added a Play Report window.
o Clicking the Restart or Quit Game button pops up the Play Report window.
o This interface displays the information on XP, Adena, and items obtained during the gameplay.
o Information on XP, Adena, and items can be reset by clicking the ‘Reset’ button.

This is great. Hopefully, in the future, more information will be available. It would also be nice if you could export this info to a file.
The info about the new SA system is low.

What kind of SA's can we get ?
What or how many items we need to make the SA's ?
Will it have and adena cost on npc ?
Will the 3rd SA boost PvP/PvE damage ?
If there's a boost,whats the % of that boost ?

We need more info on this please.
I just don't get the point of more boosts. If everyone gets a boost, is there really a boost at all? Think about it, seriously. It's just a way to soak some more money out of us for the weak souls that have the addictive personality. I guess now that I think about it that way, it will be a boost...for those that spend more $$. FML


I didn't really read slow enough to comprehend, but if I lose all my current SAs on all my chars' weps, and get some sort of "compensation" bullxxxx like we did for skill enchants, I may just say F this once and for all. <---anyone care to elaborate?

In Korea only raw Soul Crystals, not applied SAs, were deleted (otherwise they would have to give out compensation for the Gemstone fee that was used to apply the SA). At first things did not go according to plan and some applied SAs were deleted too, but those deleted SAs were restored in an emergency maintenance a few days later:

This was half a year ago and hopefully NCsoft has in the meantime gotten a grip on the process :p
can we get a release date for Underground? will there be an event for this update? and finally where is juji we need answers :)
I'm just me? or someone else who also believes the update is too poor............

no worries the poorest update is coming!

Strongly agree. Screw the waves, just port us straight to the boss and let all of the underlings attack us at that time, too. Even a random party of moderately experienced players should have no problems surviving.
Looks like NCWest is in a rush with this update to stop the bleeding of everyone moving to Core after the mess they made with the stupid bans.
"Hymn of the Soul", the second part of "Underground", went live in Korea on April 1:
http://lineage2.plaync.com/board/update/view?articleId=600722

We are perfectly in time for the regular half year gap.


Posting the preliminary, unedited patch notes several weeks in advance was a very good idea. First because it gives people an opportunity to finish the quests that are going to be changed, and also because it points Juji to problems like applied SAs being erroneously deleted in Korea. Now he is forewarned and can prepare for the worst-case scenario, preferably trying to avoid it :p
Anyone knows from what level ertheia can make Flash Grenade? What is cooldown? Can be sent to another char on account? Is it working on oly or not?

Apparently the Flash Grenades (http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%EC%84%AC%EA%B4%91+%ED%8F%AD%EC%A3%BD) can be used in the Olympiad and in the Ceremony of Chaos. They are tradeable (교환도 가능합니다), have a very quick casting time, a wide range and zero delay. For making them Elcyum Powder and Windstones are required:
http://lineage2.plaync.com/linkedbbs/qna/view?groupid=0&serverId=0&classid=4&boardid=20&bid=5463193

The player who provided this information is a lvl 99 Sayha's Seer:
http://lineage2.plaync.com/mypage/character/MTE5NjA3NTQ=/charInfo?serverId=44

I don't know whether you can maybe already make those Grenades at lvl 95.
One question: why the new expantions STILL only benefit lvl 99 and higher? how about the rest of the ppl??? thats why ppl are leaving: they lvl up alone till 85, then if you want keep leveling you need to be attached with a group (if you have the luck to be able to play at times that the server is fully active) if not, you are "stuck" in boredroom.



Come on NCsoft! the expansions bring impact to the world of Aden, and all levels are its inhabbitants!!!
erm lvling to 99 these days is fairly easy with plenty of spots to chose from even solo areas whereas anything past lvl100 is very very limited..

also players who don't to get to lvl 99 in say 3 months time are usually not players who spent money on this game (xp runes etc.) and obviously game investments are made on the player base that does spent $$$
A few questions concerning the Soul Crystal System:

- Can you give us a rough idea about the exchange rate of old vs. new Soul Crystals. Like for example I have a great number of Stage 14 Soul Crystals from 3rd class change quests. Do I get one new Stage 2 Soul Crystal for one old Stage 14 Soul Crystal, or do I have to hand in several 14ers for a new one? Two 14ers for Stage 2, five 14ers for Stage 5? After further testing, I will let you know.

- Just to make sure: applied SAs on weapons will stay? Especially the ones that don't exist in the new system, like for example Critical Stun on the lower Polearms? After further testing, I will let you know.


And concerning the new Bosses, why the spelling "Geork" instead of "Georg" and "Burnstein" instead of "Bernstein"? Those Embryo officers are obviously from Germany.
The patch notes are preliminary and does not have the final localization yet.

Something else:
In the Clan section you mention the Lineage 2 Assist app (http://mobile.plaync.com/app/lineage2). Is this an editing error or will we also get this? Again, preliminary patch notes. This app will not be ready in time for the update. The armor appearances and new mount exist though.

I want to know this too.
I made/bought S & S80 Polearms & Fist Weapons

The leveling speed for 1-85 will be much faster as well.
Some1 was said, kelbim weap will be get easier in new update.
Is that true?
We added a special new system for daily quests (NCW Exclusive).

I cant wait for this announcement sounds like good news for people stuck at 99

This app will not be ready in time for the update.

also atleast we know the app is in the works good job
Thanks a lot for the reply, Juji!

This is all much needed communication from a fairly bitter and disgusted community. Having come back recently it is good to see some things with a positive light.

You should put this phone application on the last place.
So, except kartia you wont lower the required people to the rest of the instance zones?
So, except kartia you wont lower the required people to the rest of the instance zones?We have a request already in the dev queue for lower entry requirements for all instances. No ETA right now.
Increased the level of monsters in Nightmare Kamaloka from 99 to 100.
Will the drops change too or the instance will stay useless like it is now?

Adventurer’s Marks and Seals given by the NPC can be exchanged by the Player
Commendation Points Manager ‘Adventure Guildsman’ in each town.
Is it possible to know what kind of items may we trade them for? (Important to know if we should do it now or after the update)

‘Lucky Pigs’ will no longer appear in the World.
Didn't found in the patch notes (my fault if it is) but will be possible to craft the masterwork items like before? (If i'm not mistaken that was removed on Korea) If it was removed, will the current masterwork items will stay the same?

Plus, any chance of having some changes on the Wondrous Cubic making the fragments useful? (At the moment the price to trade them are in some cases 10x more then actual market value) Maybe remove the fee needed for the trade?

Thanks in advance for any reply.
Any listing or clarity on SAs?
I believe that I'm allowed to add Acumen*Focus or Acumen*Haste on my R99 Retributer being a Wynn and than add Kain's Crit SA as 3rd, but there is no listing anywhere to be clear.

Also, possible to show some drop rates on the SA crystals on raids like Zaken/Freya/Istina/Octavis etc.? Will it be like full weapon drop rates (chance 1/blue moon) or more like enchants? If the rate is 1/blue moon and you need to combine the buggers to upgrade, than; Welcome to Phase 4 of destroying L2.

It's once per full blue moon afaik, but Juji should clarify on that part.

Here is a listing of all possible SAs:
http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%EC%A7%91%ED%98%BC#hd103227

The SAs from the bottom section (특수 집혼석/Special Soul Crystal) can only go into the 3rd SA slot, no matter whether you have filled up the 1st and 2nd one or not. And in the 3rd slot only one out of the bottom three can go, not for example an SA provided by Kain's Soul Crystal.

The other SAs can be freely combined, with the only restriction that no two of the same kind can be applied. This means you can have Acumen + Focus on your Retributer, or for example Acumen.Wild + Acumne.Mystic, but not Acumen + Acumen or Acumen.Wild + Acumen.Wild.

As to the drop rates, I am afraid that mixa is right. And from the few player screenshots where we can see new SAs, all have ones that come from Kain's Soul Crystal. This may be a coincidence - those are bragging screenshots showing overenchanted weapons, and physical weapons are easier to overenchant than magical ones. But it gives food for thought. Maybe Juji can confirm whether all Soul Crystals have the same drop rate or whether for example Kain drops more often than Leona.

And there is so far no player screenshot of a Soul Crystal resp. SA higher than Stage 5 (what you can get by Compounding). Even Helios, who did drop a Stage 8 on the PTS, only dropped a Stage 4 when he was first killed on Sieghardt a few days ago:
http://boards.rochand.com/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1473&start=190#p32238
I want to know if the shadow weps revamp are only for the improved stage rather than the normal +X ones... cos if all shadow weps get dmg revamped will be nice for some ppl =3
Anything new about S & S80 weapons that currently have Crit Stun SA ?

Will the SA stay on those weapons ?

Also what about C thru A grade weapons that currently have the
Crit Stun SA on them ?

Will the Crit Stun SA stay on them too ?
& when we exchange these weapons with other C-A grade weapons
will it keep the Crit Stun SA on them ???
What a weak update. RIP Lineage 2
Gludio instance entrance level requirement will be lowered to 99 but i'd like to know if related quests also will be lowered to level 99 because it's not clearly stated on the preliminary patch notes
No Nerf for Yuls. What a shame to see a class that can pretty much do the dmg of all the others combined and not do anything to balance it.

And I dare to have ppl say that is not true. You see even hero of other classes that go around playing with the Dual Yul cuz they do an INSANE and NONSENSE amount of dmg.


Bah....

I was personally hoping for more solo spots that weren't instanced. I'm tapped out on the same ol crap day in and day out without something to change it up. I don't even feel compelled to buy a booster of any sort.

However 3 waves of mobs instead of 7 in kartia would be a nice change indeed. That was out of control.
Hi JuJi, Can you let us know.

1. All old crystal get change to exchange coupon and rate is 1:1?( red,blue, and green all stages) (all six color R grade through R99 grade)

2. Patch note said old soul crystal get deleted are red, blue, green. I assume C-grade through R99 soul crystal of those color is deleted while Teal, Puprle and Yellow soul crystal are not deleted?

3. Will R99 teal, yellow, purple old soul crystal exchange directly to stage 4 or 6 new soul crystal?

4. And last the new update said "Removed the reentry waiting time for Crystal Caverns instanced dungeons. Emerald Square, Steam Corridor and Coral Garden"

many game account and one of mine was permanently closed for unknowingly entering twice with a random party match group. Since it's now part of the game features should those account be unban? There are hundred of lineage 2 legit player perma ban for this.

Thank you for reading.
2. Patch note said old soul crystal get deleted are red, blue, green. I assume C-grade through R99 soul crystal of those color is deleted while Teal, Purple and Yellow soul crystal are not deleted?

Teal, Purple and Yellow Soul Crystals are deleted as well, in compensation you get Soul Crystal Exchange Coupons, like with the other varieties.

기존 집혼석은 집혼석 교환권으로 ... 변경하였다 should better be translated as "The old Soul Crystals have been changed to Soul Crystal Exchange Coupons" :)

I've been checking Rochand for months now and I know about the options but you never know with 'localisation'. Maybe NCWest thinks it's normal to allow archers to have Haste+Focus e.g. but a summoner with Haste+Focus on Retri would be impossible. So that's why I asked.

To get my info clear;
Applying 2nd SA in Underground will still cost 5,266 Gem-R and re-rolling it after the patch is only 168 Gem-R? It's all a bit unclear and resulted me now even just doing a full Google Translate of the Powerwiki to clear it up.
If you have only one SA on your weapon, putting on the second SA will always cost you the Soul Crystal + 5266 Gemstones R-Grade, no matter whether now or after the update. The only difference is that different Soul Crystals are used, and since we don't have any information about the exchange rate, you might either lose or gain when postponing the second SA.

If you already have a second SA on your weapon and want to change that to one of the new SAs (Skill Crit. Damage or whatever), then you must bring a new Soul Crystal + 168 Gemstones R-Grade to your Town Blacksmith. In other words, it will cost you 5266+168=5434 Gemstones R-Grade. Since it's only two weeks until the update I would not recommend doing that :)

Too lazy to open the patchnotes now, but didnt it say hellbound, orc raiders, pagan etc shoulds get higher xp/sp?
A bit too soon to complain about it if you havent tried it :D

For people of higher levels yes. I'm not that high yet. I've been off the game for a year almost. Also I'd like to see these areas for solo for leveling subs too. I mean we can't ALWAYS get a party and have our hands held, sometimes you have and hour or two to play and spending 30 mins+ forming a group and go wouldn't be productive. I am aware people have their "constants" I however can't be in game enough to commit to such a thing.

I'm not blaming anyone here, I'd just like to have the option to go someplace myself for a short period and have it be productive and not an instance for once.

True, the spots they have changed are for level 97+, they also increased the number of certain mobs in boz core so in a way boz core is more viable.


Fairy settlement is very good exp for the lowbies, when you get ~93 you can go Stronghold 2 for nice exp, at 95 you move to boz core.
After 97, you go to the "new, boosted" areas.
Idk which server you're at, but on Magmeld those areas have never really been full, other than bots, which atm are being taken care of pretty nicely.

So I personally dont see any point with a new hunting ground :)
Unless you're saying you want 2-3 spots to choose from with good exp?
Would be nice I suppose, but even at higher levels you are stuck with 1 location.
I'm unable to open this on my android. With 4 different apps, it as its an invalid format.
Hey i know this is not major but can u fix the texture of shadow thrower?
When u see it from close view it is very cloudy compared to armors and other weapons...
It is a shame such a good weapon have such a bad texture so please modify it a little bit ... :D

Also please can u check out the skill Flash of yul archer?
It says increase speed by 50 but every time i activate it it does not appear even on buffs nor speed changes....

Can be exchanged. For? Will be there all recipes available at adv guildsman? pendant recipe? elixir recipes? shot recipes? etc?
Hello JuJi, with only 3 working day left till game update Please can you let us know about the old soul crystal exchange coupon rate?

Will we get 1 coupon for each old soul no matter if it C grade stage 5 or R99? can we use multiple coupon to exchange for a new stage 4/5 soul crystal? Or compounding new stage 1 soul crystal is the only way?

Many player like myself have many old soul crystal saved up for cheaper SA cost for future update like this upcoming one.

Please note that there may be additional changes to exchange list before the update goes live on 10/14. It is NOT FINAL.

The Soul Crystal Coupon Pack only has a small chance to give a Stage 5 Soul Crystal Coupon. You will most likely get nothing.
As you said ingame that we will get a new NPC to exchange our old adventure marks, i forgot to ask..

Will we still be able to exchange the adventure marks into soul crystals (old ones), or will crystals be removed from the new NPC?
Can be exchanged. For? Will be there all recipes available at adv guildsman? pendant recipe? elixir recipes? shot recipes? etc?

Taking the part of the patch notes that are duplicated, how many megabytes will be upgrading in the Underground?

And second, since there will be changes in the skills learned from dualclass, I wonder if after update will have to re-acquire certificates in the Trandom NPC for later re-learn the ones I want?

Thanks in advance.
I will let you know soon after our testing has completed.

After launch of the new update, it is hoped that NC can amend the (augmentation) feature to work on already-{PvP}'ed A-S80 weapons.

Otherwise if we take off {PvP} option in order to augment, we lose it for good cos we can't put {PvP} back on again.
The one question a lot of people wants to know, if I have enough SP for 14 AP, does that mean I'll be 16 AP after update because of the SP chances or my 14 AP will stay the same?

P.S ( and speacial thx from my new lowlvled frieds for new lvl up system . It is good that they can take lvl 85 faster, because moustly ppl leave even not taking 85.)
does someone have a link to the tauti/kelbim/freya armor apperance?

also ncwest needs to allow us to toggle through more then one armor appearance so we can permanently keep our purchased l2store or ingame appearance but only on the selected set of armor (this way people will be buying more appearances, i missed out on the zaken appearance because i didnt want to loose tribal) this was suggested by multiple people already

About the AP, his question was " since he got 14 AP with the system we have now, after the update when the SP need will be reduced, does that automatically get him more AP? 10B SP is needed in our system so that means 14 AP is 8B SP. after update 8B SP = 16 AP, so technically after update ppl with 14 AP should be at 16.

Hello All,

The Soul Crystal Exchange information for the Underground update is below:

Please note that there may be additional changes to exchange list before the update goes live on 10/14. It is NOT FINAL.

The Soul Crystal Coupon Pack only has a small chance to give a Stage 5 Soul Crystal Coupon. You will most likely get nothing.

Are the coupons we will get tradeable?

About the AP, his question was " since he got 14 AP with the system we have now, after the update when the SP need will be reduced, does that automatically get him more AP? 10B SP is needed in our system so that means 14 AP is 8B SP. after update 8B SP = 16 AP, so technically after update ppl with 14 AP should be at 16.

doubt it, nobody got free levels when the exp requirements per level where reduced, I don't see why they would do different for SP than what they did for XP
The Final Underground Patch Notes (http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=285841) have been posted. Please keep in mind that there may be additional changes upon launch day.

There will also be more improvements to these new game systems after the Underground update.




Wow Juji, the whole patchnotes made me cry!

Easier kamaloka, daily rewards, clan rewards, auto-ss!! ... Finally something for non-paying people! ;)
@juji, will there be an option to update the existing SA's on weapons ? Say you have an R99 weapon with 2 SA's can you change those to the new SA's without having to buy/get new lvl5 ones ?

this is a very important question as offering replacements for the actual SA Crystals is one thing, the same should be for those applied on weapons which people actually use & need to play the game.


ps, I'm not talking about upgrading to a lvl6 or higher as obviously that should cost adena & require the new crystals
nobody got free levels when the exp requirements per level where reduced, I don't see why they would do different for SP than what they did for XP

It's easy to arrange (at the expense of 10 mil adena):

free up all your SP by resetting the AP.

After the update, convert the available SP using the new rates.
So Juji is it really possible that we get 1 level 5 coupon nomatter if the old crystal is R or R99 dual sa crystal?

Its quite incredible that higher Crystals are valued same as low ones :/ If possible please adjust to following:

R = 1 lvl5 coupon
R dual = 2
R95 = 3
R95 dual = 4
R99 = 5
R99 dual = 6

Or something along these lines so that the high crystals would actually give more benefit than the low ones.

edit:

I originally quessed the system for coupons would be something like that you get certain amount of coupons for LVL1 new crystals. For example:
lvl13 or lower old SA = 1 coupon that gives 1 level 1 crystal to compound with.
lvl14 gives 2 coupons
lvl15 gives 4 coupons
etc
R gives 10 coupons
R dual = 20 coupons
etc
R99 Dual = 100 coupons to compound with.

This is just my way of seeing how the thing should had been dealt with.

Not sure that is how it works.

Reset gives you back the points to arrange, dont think it gives you sp to reconvert to points again.

Also, probably wont see more ap after update than you had before, since you convert sp into points. The sp has already been converted, AP is not just representing held sp by the character.
New rare items have been added to the Item Broker (Auction) NPC.

Am I missing something or Item Broker NPC bug will be fixed and they dont say a word about it? :confused:

Correct, once you've converted your SP into AP, there is no way to get your SP back.
If you reset your AP now, you will just remove all learnt AP, you still have all the "points" left.
Juji confirmed ingame when he buffed us, that people's AP will remain the same.




Questions to Juji,
Patchnote say you can buy stage 6 soul crystals from mentee marks, which is the equivalent to our current SAs? i.e which grade of the new crystals will give us 25% health SA (same amount as our current health SA).
To be honest it feels like we're being screwed on this, stage 5 is probably like 15% health for example. :mad:

About the clan reward system,
How much EXP do we need to farm to reach the required stages?
How many people can claim the lindviors' earring?
Can you claim it once a day? (patchnote say it is a daily system)
If you can claim it once a day, and everyone can claim it, this basically means everyone will run around with lindvior's earring, correct?
I need to know, so i know whether or not to be excited :o


Player level-up rewards,
Is this just for the low lvls (1-84) or will there be rewards for leveling higher than 84+, i.e 99, 100, 101?
Patchnotes just talk about XP runes being given as a reward for lv. 1-84s, curious whether or not higher levels will also get some bonus.
Also, will people get the rewards if they are past that level already?
i.e will a level 80 the day of the patch, still get the lv. 60 reward?



Redeem Daily Coin for special rewards at the High Priest Franco NPC in Talking Island Village.
Is this for a chance, or will there be set prices for things?
Sounds cool if people can play active and buy longing after a few months for example, but if its 1/100000 chance... eh.



Thats it for now :D
Reset gives you back the points to arrange, dont think it gives you sp to reconvert to points again.

That's right, I guess I was being senile for a moment.


Also, probably wont see more ap after update than you had before, since you convert sp into points.

Well I have a couple billions of SP on an alt charater, as I've been racking them up without converting to AP. At least that alt will benefit from the update. :)
Would it be possible to add something like a party damage meter?
About hunting zones: no changes to Giant Cave ( it should be revamped with mobs 100lv+ )?

About hunting zones: no changes to Giant Cave ( it should be revamped with mobs 100lv+ )?

this will be in the update after the one we will get wednesday.

This would be sweet.
If you have only one SA on your weapon, putting on the second SA will always cost you the Soul Crystal + 5266 Gemstones R-Grade, no matter whether now or after the update. The only difference is that different Soul Crystals are used, and since we don't have any information about the exchange rate, you might either lose or gain when postponing the second SA.

If you already have a second SA on your weapon and want to change that to one of the new SAs (Skill Crit. Damage or whatever), then you must bring a new Soul Crystal + 168 Gemstones R-Grade to your Town Blacksmith. In other words, it will cost you 5266+168=5434 Gemstones R-Grade. Since it's only two weeks until the update I would not recommend doing that :)

For The Love of Aden
Taking my 2 sa r99 cutter and Putting 2 new Soul Crystals in my inventory..and telling me i will need 5 thousand and 700 hundred something R-Gem to re-apply em will be nearly impossible to get over
So will we be able to keep our old Sa's ?

I think those "new rare items" are the lvl6 Soul Crystals that replaced R99 dual Soul crystals in Broker^_^

If I remember right from what Elmar has sayd before - you get to keep your SA's but they change to a new SA that is closest to what you had.

You can assumably also change the SA's you already had with a small cost (dual SA was - I think - something like 160'ish r-gems to change).

Correct me if im wrong^_^

Cudez
You are right :)

Juji has not yet answered my question in this respect, but if everything goes like in Korea, old applied SAs will not be deleted on update day, only some will be renamed (like for example Health -> Body).

If you are happy with the 2 SAs you currently have on your Cutter, nothing will change. They should still be there on Wednesday evening.

If you want to replace for example a Focus SA with a new Crt.Body SA, which gives you a bit less additional Crit.Rate but in a second effect increases your max.HP, this will require a Leona's Soul Crystal plus 168 Gemstones R-Grade (there will be no refund for the old Soul Crystal or the original Gemstone fee for applying it).

But this might be a largely theoretical option. I have so far seen not one single screenshot with an SA that would have been bestowed by anything else but a Kain's Soul Crystal. The other Soul Crystals seem to be exceedingly rare.

it doesnt free your SP just the AP which u already spent your SP in.

Juji told ingame that the Stage 5 is the correspondent to our current SAs.
Where is it in patch notes that the stage 6 will be available from mentee marks? Thought it was only from raids... (and maybe Item Broker)

Ah, my mistake.
When I opened the patchnotes in firefox one line was cutoff, they were talking about about changes to the item from mentor marks, i figured they were talking about mentor marks, my bad :o
Was the items from item broker i was looking it
Does this mean that you re-activate the Item Broker (Auction) again? :)Yes.

What is the "Talisman - Golden Bough"?Talisman - Insanity.

Who can get the clan rewards? The Clan-Leader only or all Clan-Member?All clan members can get the clan rewards.

The AP Reset button does not give you back SP. It only allows you to redo your AP skills.

Are the coupons we will get tradeable?Only through mail/trade/drop, but cannot be sold in a private store or on the auction house. The soul crystals you can exchange for the coupons are completely tradable.

1. You cannot buy stage 6 soul crystals from the Mentor guide. Stage 6 is only available through item broker, events, or epic raid bosses. Kain's Soul Crystal - Stage 5 will have the 25% Health bonus.
2. Check the screenshot for XP amount. Everyone can claim the Lindvior's Earring. There are some restrictions though for new members.
3. The free XP Runes 100% (Lv.1-85) are only for the levels that are mentioned in the patch notes (under 85). You will still be able to get SOME of the rewards for the previous levels the day of the patch if you are past those levels.
4. There are set prices for the Daily Coin rewards from Franco.
And my question is will the {pvp} option stay on A~s80 weapons?
Anything new about S & S80 weapons that currently have Crit Stun SA ?

Will the SA stay on those weapons ?

Also what about C thru A grade weapons that currently have the
Crit Stun SA on them ?

Will the Crit Stun SA stay on them too ?
& when we exchange these weapons with other C-A grade weapons
will it keep the Crit Stun SA on them ???

Hi JuJi, Can you let us know.

1. All old crystal get change to exchange coupon and rate is 1:1?( red,blue, and green all stages) (all six color R grade through R99 grade)

2. Patch note said old soul crystal get deleted are red, blue, green. I assume C-grade through R99 soul crystal of those color is deleted while Teal, Puprle and Yellow soul crystal are not deleted?

3. Will R99 teal, yellow, purple old soul crystal exchange directly to stage 4 or 6 new soul crystal?

4. And last the new update said "Removed the reentry waiting time for Crystal Caverns instanced dungeons. Emerald Square, Steam Corridor and Coral Garden"
1. Yes.
2. All existing (red/green/blue/yellow/teal/purple) soul crystals will be deleted and replaced with soul crystal exchange coupons (see table in patch notes).
3. Stage 5 Soul Crystals
4. The Crystal Caverns instance now has a 24-hour cooldown (resets at 6:30 AM Server Time.

does someone have a link to the tauti/kelbim/freya armor apperance?

also ncwest needs to allow us to toggle through more then one armor appearance so we can permanently keep our purchased l2store or ingame appearance but only on the selected set of armor (this way people will be buying more appearances, i missed out on the zaken appearance because i didnt want to loose tribal) this was suggested by multiple people alreadyhttp://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?p=3507464

Here is an example of what your Infinite Odyssey weapon with 2 SA will look like after the Underground update:

Infinite Odyssey:

Underground:

1. You cannot buy stage 6 soul crystals from the Mentor guide. Stage 6 is only available through item broker, events, or epic raid bosses. Kain's Soul Crystal - Stage 5 will have the 25% Health bonus.
2. Check the screenshot for XP amount. Everyone can claim the Lindvior's Earring. There are some restrictions though for new members.
3. The free XP Runes 100% (Lv.1-85) are only for the levels that are mentioned in the patch notes (under 85). You will still be able to get rewards for the previous levels the day of the patch if you are past those levels.
4. There are set prices for the Daily Coin rewards from Franco.

There is any list of all new SA ? when will be possible to add 3rd SA ? and is there any changes with weapons, for ex. i can add HP to magic weapons ?
Here is the list of all SAs available as of Wednesday:
http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%EC%A7%91%ED%98%BC#hd103227


You can add your 3rd SA as soon as you have a Mystic Soul Crystal. That requires 10 Mystic Soul Crystal Fragments:

http://static.plaync.co.kr/powerbook/lineage2/94/25/83f06a8830cacade312583c0.jpg

The Mystic Soul Crystal Fragments drop in the Mystic Tavern instances. You can do two instances per week. The problem is that the drop rate is very low. Here is an example of the Kelbim instance:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tyug_P94rpY
The Soul Crystal Fragment should drop at 41:12, but it doesn't. Underground went live in Korea on April 1 but so far not one single screenshot has been posted that showed a 3rd SA.


And yes, you can add HP-increasing SAs to magic weapons. There is no more fixed route, any SA can be applied to any weapon (which is especially interesting for Summoners and people who use their weapon also on their Dual Class).

does that mean you can also apply 2x the same SA on a weapon now ?

I'm actually afraid to think of what's going to happen when stacked archers have their bows with 2x Skill Crit SA's ^^"
No, that's a restriction you can't escape. You can apply for example Hunter (increases Skill Crit.Rate) plus Crit.Hunter (increases both normal Crit.Rate and Skill Crit.Rate), but you can't have Hunter plus Hunter or Crit.Hunter plus Crit.Hunter :)

According to the first link you posted:

There are five types of Regular Soul Crystals, and only two (Kain and Mermoden) will be available for exchange by blacksmits located in the towns.
And the other three (Leona, Lionel and Pantheon) only acquired via events, item broker and epic raid bosses.

My question in relation to particular Mystic Soul Crystal (exclusively for 3rd SA) describing that there are only 3 types: Sigel, Tyrr and Feoh and their bonus.
Since there is described that increases damage for PvE and PvP, also too another bonuses, I suppose to get such Mystic Soul Crystal intended (Tyrr, Feoh or Sigel) via mystic soul fragment is something beyond difficult it becomes something lucky to acquire that you really want.

My question regarding screenshot is also how many mystic armor pieces would be required to purchase a complete app stones set? ( mean Freya, Tauti and Kelbim), since I do not believe at first that would be offered for sale by Ncoins, not yet.

Thanks in advance.

P.S: If possible, Elmar could translate the last two tables of the first link that describe exactly what each type of crystal can benefit.

Thanks in advance.The Mystic Soul Crystal just uses the Tyrr, Feoh, and Sigel names for the type of stat being given. They are not class-restricted.

Mystic Soul Crystal Stats:
Tyrr - 5% P. Atk.
Feoh - 5% M. Atk.
Sigel - 15% Max HP

10 Mystic Armor Pieces per Appearance Stone. To complete a full set of the new appearance stones, you need 40 total (Chest, Pants, Gloves, Boots).
Thank you for fast reply.

I expected something more impressive to a third SA.
Since koreans expressed no such interest there.
We'll see here soon.
Juji any info on the final "coupon" list for Crystals that you get from having old crystals?

Also looking for confirmation that 3/5 of new Soul Crystals are not available from Blacksmith. I checked the link that Elmar posted and Kahwi referred to and wasnt able to find info that BS has only 2 Crystals.

Highly possible that I missed something but would be grateful of confirm or some reference to this fact^_^

cudezNot yet. Consider what has been posted for now as semi-final.

In the Patch Notes, I posted a screenshot of the Blacksmith window with only the Kain and Mermoden Soul Crystals. The other 3 (Pantheon, Lionel, Leona) are only obtained through events, Item Broker, or raid bosses.

I have attached a word doc with the New Soul Crystal stats up to Stage 5.

EDIT.
link seems to work now... thanks.


Also - would be fair if atleast the present Dual SA crystals would give a possibility to get one of the 3/5 new hybrid SA's... if its too late to add anything to BS you should really consider of doing 1:1 swaps into inventory like you do to the weapons that already have double SA.

The fact that people with double SA's in weapons will get a very very hard to get SA for free - and the people who actually have the "old" double SA crystal (viz. crystal that was not linked to weapon) get basically nothing is Evil^_^

ps. I am assuming things in here so correct me if im wrong...


Edit. Elmar, Juji or someone who actually grasps the new soul Crystals: could you please elaborate how the crystals work please. Like, Kains has options like

[Might]
[Fury]
[Focus]
[Death]
[Hunter]
[Fire]
[Body]

Am I supposed to get one of these or wth... If I get only one then:
a) how do I choose the one I am supposed to get?
b) do I need a new soul crystal to alterate into "same base type" - lets say Kain - if I want a different Kain effect, if I had a Kain already in Weapon I was not satisfied with?

Yes, it's one Soul Crystal -> one SA. The Blacksmith in any town will walk you through the selection process. Here is an English explanation:
http://boards.rochand.com/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1473&p=31071#p31066

And yes, each time you change an SA you need a new Soul Crystal. If you want to change for example [Fury] from Kain to [Body] from Kain, you need a new Kain Crystal, plus a Gemstone fee depending on the Grade of your weapon. The re-Sa-ing discussion continues on the following page of the Rochand link above :)
Players will no longer be able to log in through the game client

Does this finally mean we are getting OTP like KR/TW and can get rid of the time-wasting character PINs?

Otherwise, I see this as change for sake of change and I really dislike all such changes.
Hi, just a question about new SA system : if i want to change my actual SA, do i have to remove augmentation to be able to change SA like in "old" system?

if yes, it sucks :o

Its change for poeoples using l2t... they can't connect with 3rd prog. by launcher and have to change l2.bin to l2.exe for avoid luncher. GZ ncsoft, if this restriction will work, and they wont find a way for avoind launcher like they did with gameguard (they still keeping it off - and can connect) will be much less farm bots for RMT items/adena.

As far as I understand, only very old bots work that way (think l2w.....). Ever since its first successor, bots do not care how you enter the game world. So even if it was changed so that you had to go to a physical place and activate a nuclear missile launch console to log in to lineage 2, it does not matter *at all* to all bots that were created later than during prelude beta.

Which brings us to my point. New login dialog, but no new functionality. No effect (neither direct nor indirect) on bots. Do you know how much time I have wasted while logging in since character PINs became mandatory? This would have been a perfect time to introduce OTP and get rid of them. After all, KR/TW has had it for years.

There's nothing I hate more than change for sake of change. And you know why? It shows that the people behind these changes have absolutely no clue what they are doing and why they are doing it. I guess someone will have to end up with millions of e-mails advertising "chirp lanugi 2 aduhma" before we see actual changes that do something around here.
And another question - 2-option air accessories from aden reconstruction Moa gets random? or i can choose?

Actually a good question: I stocked up good pendants and hats beforehand in hope that I would be able to make the 2-stat hats I wanted.

NEVERTHELESS - oh cmon Ncwest - people spent billions to get the good 2stat hats; and now after the Carrot event - when basically everyone has tons of pendants stocked - you give the 2stat hats for basically nothing.

Not a cool move...

These bots man....like wtf,wtf are bots doing in wall of argos in 3:00 am in the morning...I purposely wake up so I can farm /lvl up in peace there ,yet when I log in,... SURPRISE.Five bots ksing each other and me,I'm sick of it,you kill them,they come back.I wasn't sure in the begining wether is a bot or not,so I've decided to steal it's mobs,after 30 min of ksing/overhitting no response...I mean a normal player would probably leave or go crazy :D,so...not only I get less xp,but it's difficult to farm.In aion it's a lost cause,bots everywhere,nothing that can be done ( well ...they are doing something,but bots vigorously rise from the ashes).I hope that launcher thing works.
There are worse bots in ToI, for example. They even talk (not english) and ask you to stop murdering them (I kill their servitors to avoid PK count increase and get off karma while XPing nearby, since they don't even have soulshots nor good equipment to even try to fight back).

Instead of making NCW-exclusive features nobody really needs, perhaps it's time to be more proactive and either shut down the skeleton localization crew or increase it again and do something about these bots.

You get "2 stats hair accesory box" for 2 "sealed pendants" + stuff = random stats, you don't chose which pendants to give since you give "sealed pendants" - just re-read again the patch notes, seems pretty clear.

Means no real changes to 2 stats hats prices since one random stats box worth around 200 million.

Today is rune item broker auction, but in bartz its the auction for a purple soul r99 and patch notes said the soul crystals in broker will be changed to the new lv6 crystals... if i bought one what will happen? will i get an old r99 crystal or i would get a new lv6 at random?

IDK if its a bug or not but i want to know a gm confirmation of what is going on with the broker =/
I have 2 questions:

1. Assuming I have a clean Amaranthine Buster. And I have a Red Soul Crystal (R99-grade).
After the update I will get Soul Crystal Coupon (Stage 5).
Can I put Body SA (old Health SA) on my clean Amaranthine Buster as first SA?

2. With a Soul Crystal Coupon I can get any new SA, is that correct?
To be more specific: if I have Soul Crystal Coupon (Stage 5), can I get Kain's Soul Crystal - Stage 5 for the 25% Health bonus on Amaranthine Buster?
Not sure if its a know issue or not, but i tell it.
Ok so, in summoner pet, use magic skill, in chat it say "used spirit shot" :D but in reality was used Soul Shot xD

1. On a clean item, you can put any SA.
2. SCC 1-5 can be traded in for Kain 1-5 or Mermoden 1-5 (by this, I mean 1->1, 2->2, etc. and only like this). After opening the ensoul window, inserting a weapon and inserting a soul crystal, you will be able to choose which path of the SC to take (e.g. Body). So yes, if you have stage 5, you can put the +25% HP on any weapon.
Cool :)

Thank you for your clear answers.

If this is an issue you have as a veteran to this game I have no words =/

You could get the NPC ahead of time and then (/target npcname)

Or, if you didn't get the npc find someone you know is a high level player that's possibly participating in the auction, click on them and then /assist to pickup their NPC target. Repeat until you get the auction NPC from someone.
thanks for help, unfortunately didnt work..../target npc as the window wouldnt pop up
Whoever designed these changes to Kartias deserves to get a huge nail rammed into his thick skull.
And so does everyone who ever complained about Kartias being too easy and boring.

Now, instead of those easy, fast-dying bosses you can enjoy the bosses with stupidly increased hp. Enjoy pummeling them for 10 minutes straight instead of just 1 min.
How entertaining! http://boards.lineage2.com/images/icons/icon8.gif

K85 solo, killing Zellaka really fast with my Wynn. Other classes really really long story tho.

Try it solo in group K95 and then tell us what you think.

So group Kartia supposed to be done with a group. If you want to manage it alone that would be hard by mentioned above mean. They just make it a bit realistic, just as it should be: easy for group and hard for one.
from which grade old SA's weapons will I recieve SCCoupons? from A to R99?
The rest of the Soul Crystals are from drops, events, and other future game systems.

looking for info who drops thos others soul crystals and what drop rate?
This update is kinda nice :P
Here is the list of the Bosses who drop Soul Crystals:
http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%EC%A7%91%ED%98%BC+%EB%A0%88%EC%9D%B4%EB%93%9C

The drop rate for anything above Stage 5 (Bosses of lvl 99 or above) is de facto 0% (zero percent).

not quite true, the drop rate is very low but just due to the shear amount of ppl doing the lower instance raids I've seen stage 6 crystals pop up in AH daily..

anything higher will be very rare though yes as those drop from Kelmbim/ Fortress Instance or Dragons only

Well, I guess NCWest nowadays has significantly more players than NCKorea, at least in those level ranges :)
I have a problem !!
Tallum blade & Dark Leg Duals S grade with SA, i put ON AH - Before update!
After update they have no SA - so wtf now?! :confused:

SAs were stripped from Items listed at AH, or "in the Mail" since all Weapons with SA were supposed to get Auto-updated(if they were in your inventory/pet/WH)but AH/mail items are in transit... not in your inventory, or the recipients inventory either... yet. so you should find SA coupon in your WH.

Dude.
I've seen 3x stage 8 soul crystals already, 1 on magmeld and 2 on the dimensional raid server.
Thats not "More amount of players", thats higher drop rate.

So please, this is NCWest, i understand korea is ahead of us, but it doesnt mean its the same thing over here.
In a way you are right. While I am sure that the basic drop rate is the same over here and in Korea, there are different boosts. In Korea, players get a 30% drop rate bonus when they log in from in internet cafe, but in compensation they don't have Drop Rate Runes:
http://lineage2nshop.plaync.com/lineage2/goods/list?dci=102
At NCWest, Boss raiders usually have a Drop Rate Rune in their Inventory, which increases the item drop rate by 200%.

To give you an impression about the difference as far as Soul Crystals are concerned, when Helios (http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%ED%97%AC%EB%A6%AC%EC%98%A4%EC%8A%A4), a new lvl 105 Epic Boss, was killed on the PTS, where they had at that time a 4x drop bonus (http://lineage2.plaync.com/board/tsnotice/view?articleId=608168), he did drop a Stage 8 Soul Crystal:
http://boards.rochand.com/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1547#p32100
When the same Boss was first killed on a regular server, he dropped only a Stage 4:

No element, to 155 Holy? No appearance, to Tegaffe's dualsword? I see the SA is gone, but the rest? Is this even the same weapon? Just asking....looks funny from mihailspirov's end imo.

so you had +0 Tallum*DLE Dual Swords, which had description:
P. Atk. of dualswords increases more than one-handed type weapon when enchanted. Max HP + 15%, Max MP + 20%, Max CP + 30% when enchanted by 4 or more. Increases damage inflicted during PvP.


You did not have an SA, no Coupon will be in your WH... before the Update Dual Swords needed to be enchanted to +4 or better to get the only SA available applied to them.(my Tallum*DLE has been +8 for a long time... still has Robust Health) After Update some SAs like Silence were changed(a discontinued Mage SA changed to another Mage SA... seemingly at random)Now all weapons which can have an SA, can have any SA(Fighter SA on Mage Weapon, or vice versa.) without any need for +++ enchants. The new SAs have levels 1-8 depending on level of Crystal.
Robust Health is just a new Name for the old SA(no level shown) I think it was the name of the passive when +4 or better Talum*DLE was equipped.
Hello people, so my question is does Freya's scroll 100% xp/sp stack with this new Maphr Wind Scroll 200% you get from daily coin? On new Maphr scroll it doesn't say anything it doesn't stack like in old Maphr. Did anyone test it?

You are wrong on +0 they still have this option, only weapon from adventurer has need to be +4 to unlock option, but original item has option on +0,+1,+2 and etc.
And now i just got rubbish cause my duals was in AH, i don't want coupons for new SA's i want my old option!!! :(

Dual weapon Grade C - S80


Special ability is added if a weapon is modified by +4 and higher

Old system... {they still working on update?}
is there a NPC to trade new soul crystals for other's of the same lvl?
is there a NPC to trade new soul crystals for other's of the same lvl?

no, the only npc you can talk to about these are the Blacksmith (any town) or the Tavern Owner npc in case you have 10 Mystic Soul Fragments to obtain a full functional Mystic Soul Crystal.
What is the purpose of the new SA's there, if I can't ever put old SA's in weapons low-grade level, giving greater emphasis to those that are used in Oly.
Such weapons have become relics now.
In this regard, in NCKorea these buffs from the specific Oly weapons (soes + btb, any weapon + mental shield buff) are working as expected?
What you see are players getting rid of them and selling at a reasonably high price.
After trying to download the link / thread so as to see what crystals are needed to do the double SA's my PC's anti-virus sounded an alarm that they were infected with malware and tracking programs . . . . not just a simple HTTML file that you open and read for the information . Where is the information on what crystals are needed for the double SA's , even though the blacksmiths will tell you what a scroll will trade for at his shop (don't know if its the same in every shop) I don't see what is the double SA crystal , where to get them or what their stats are or which are available from them . . . ? where are they , what are they how do you get them ? :confused:

Try this:

This is an official NCKorea website and should be safe. The double SAs are those with a mix of Roman and Korean letters :)

You get those Soul Crystals by drop from the Bosses on the list I linked on the previous page (or from the Auction House).
