Oh, come on, they are available at this forums since 28 Feb, and will be the same except some typos. Do not forget that this is not some "exclusive and fresh" update, it has been long since released in Korea. http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=288055

well i read that but there says - Helios Preliminary Patch Notes (http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?p=3520166) , i want full one with good explanation and translate.
Always a lot of stuff missing in preliminary notes.
Either a few days before or the day of the update. Most of the patch note information was posted in the preliminary patch notes. I will touch up on the faction system and fishing changes a bit more in the final notes.

To support the development of characters of level 100 and above added hunting area Spatial Rift. Spatial Rift can be entered at Rune.
The Spatial Rift players can enter at 95th level and above.
Added 2 quests for this zone.
Quest 1: To capture the plan in 100 days.
Level: 100+
Description: Researcher Measurement Rais asks you to destroy monsters in spatial faults and collect Soul Raiders. (Daily) [Spatial Rift] Rais
Quest 2: Hunting Marshal in another dimension.
Level: 100+
Description: Researcher Measurement Rais asks Marshall to destroy another dimension, which is expected to be restored in the depths of Spatial Rift (Disposable) [Spatial Rift] Rais

Daily quest-operation to address "to capture the plan in 100 days", created to support the development of the character, you can go up to 100 times.
At 100th time, you can get an additional reward for the quest "Marshall among the measurements."

Nice, it looks like we go dimensional rift again soon. :)

Without drops its just an another useless place.

highlighted and russian in title is not enough?

Yes, I agree. The old days...

Spoiling every mob for the best materials.
Picking all the dimensional stones.
Enter the game just to farm the materials, without even thinking about quests.
Entering dimensional zone and go to those mobs that give the best spoil and drop.
Normal daily conversations in clan or party chat, that starts with 'how are you doing' then I want exalted buff.

Now it's all about:

Clan epic's.
Daily dungeons.

Things to consider:

- In Korea the Seven Signs SAs were not a permanent addition to the game but an event, so you would not find them in the patchnotes.

- Unlike with the Brooches, the 7s SAs event was never repeated in Korea. It is possible that because of the extremely negative feedback in Korea ("this is the most evil event ever (http://boards.rochand.com/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1514&start=70#p31999)") the developers came to the conclusion that this feature was not such a good idea and decided to not include it in the export version.

- In Korea there was a kind of "safety mechanism" that limited the maximum expenditure to 2400 US dollars (http://boards.rochand.com/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1514&start=60#p31984) per account. But since the Seven Signs Soul Crystals (http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%EB%A6%B4%EB%A6%AC%EC%8A%A4+%EC%A7%91%ED%98%BC%EC% 84%9D%285%EB%8B%A8%EA%B3%84%29) are tradeable (they just can't be put in player shops or the Auction House), this limit can be (and obviously has been) circumvented by moving them for example from the main account to a buffer account for further upgrading. I somehow can't imagine NCWest passing up on such a nice opportunity to milk many thousand dollars out of one single player.

- Russia and Europe have a different business model than NCWest. With their Premium Accounts they are not as much dependent on generating revenue out of the L2Store as Juji. It is possible that Russia and Europe have decided that the negative aspects of an irresistible, automatically triggering stun are in the long run more detrimental to their revenue than the money they can earn with those SAs. I think they also don't have the Topaz in Russia and Europe?

Each week the maintenance become shorter.
And even "report" become better.
You improve yourself in that.^^

Now only need dedicated (patient and without suicidal tendency) person to reply basic players questions.
not with "I will ask team" or such.
But a direct reply of want you're allowed to say like :

(Silly example)
Q:Will we have any use of Fenrir ? like bigger inventory bit better stats, lower exp rate etc?

A:As far we know it will remain like we have right now.

Not ignoring your player base will bring more happiness, and Happy person tend to be more generous is you see my point :)
Because sadly communication isn't your strength recently ^^
Beside that !
I'm following what you're doing and time to time I was able to see Bot farm being cleaned.
And this is what you should tell.
Even if at first place they should not be there ahah ^^
But still there is progress even if that like trying to put fire to water :)

Conguero think as player, would you like a present Moderator to speak with it's player base or would you prefer an announcer only ?
And on that good day all :)
