All game servers will be down for maintenance beginning Wednesday, August 17, 2016 at 5:00am PDT / 7:00am CDT / 8:00am EDT / 1200 GMT (www.worldtimebuddy.com/?qm=1&lid=5368361,4671654,5128581,0&h=4671654&date=2016-8-17&sln=7-9.5) and ending at approximately 7:20am PDT / 9:20am CDT / 10:20am EDT / 1420 GMT. Estimated downtime is 2 hours 20 minutes.

With this maintenance:

The Hungry Horse event (http://www.lineage2.com/en/news/events/hungry-horse-event-Aug-17-2016.php) will return.
The In-Game Store will be updated.
The maximum number of Shortcut Bars will be increased from 4 to 5, and the maximum number of Shortcut Pages will be increased from 10 to 20.
Standard database maintenance and application restarts will be performed.

If you have any questions about the changes taking place during tomorrow's maintenance, please feel free to post them on the Lineage II forum (http://boards.lineage2.com/). We also encourage you to follow @L2andAionOps (https://twitter.com/L2andAionOps) for maintenance and server status updates.
With this maintenance:

The Hungry Horse event will return (details coming soon).


Details come before Maintenance?
please just dont come with BS, dont change the 120 giant energy pack.
"soon" means tomorrow evening after everyone found out rewards?
Any info as to when the Character creation disable will be lifted and I hope there will be compensations like xp runes :)

And any news about if in the future it will be possible to change dual to main
The Hungry Horse event will return (details coming soon).

Why is it ALWAYS that u give us the details about the events HOURS after the servers are up?? How hard is it to give us info during the maintenance or is it that you just have NO idea what is actually gonna work out ??

Times up, soon its ended, the soon word definition its short time, so its already ended, look time, its almost 3 hour already.
That not short time, its log already.

It has nothing to do with being hard to do.
It's their policy.

I don't agree with it, but it's there to ensure that they don't post new items/discounts at a time when people are still able to make a purchase.

Notice they will just about always tell you what is coming out of the store so you can make last minute purchases/stock up... but they never tell you specifics about what's coming up unless it's something like a special appearance item.

That's so if they are selling something like the 200% XP runes for normal price, but will discount them the next day, they want as many full sale prices as possible until maintenance.
Details come before Maintenance?

IIRC, the rewards were pretty crappy the last time. Let's hope that it's not the same thing this time.
Was the server transfering service disabled without a notification before two weeks because of those short-cut updates?
If so, then when will it be avaiable again? Some of our clannies are waiting for the service so badly.
Hi
if its possible can we have some details on what are these new items

Gran Kain's Miraculous Medicine
Source of the Emperor
Ring of Creation

Also it would be nice if the murphy scrolls are not deleted after event as the event time is too short to make proper use of them.
Oh bother. I was at the office late this evening to finish getting that Hungry Horse article put together, and I forgot to check to make sure the images I added were loading properly outside of our network. I'll get that fixed when I'm back in the office tomorrow.

Sorry everyone!

"Ring of Creation" might be the "Ring of Beginning" droppped by Helios. "Source of the Emperor" is an item you need to upgrade that:

Gran Kain's Miraculous Medicine is probably this:

About Agathion - Joon pack 30 day and their skills

Can summon Joon when equipped. 30-day. Cannot be used in the Olympiad.


1. Joon's Magic: For 30 min., acquired XP/SP + 10%, Atk. Attribute + 100, P. Atk. + 20%, M. Atk. + 30%, Atk./Casting Spd. + 10%, P./M. Accuracy + 4, Speed + 10, Max. HP/MP/CP + 10%, P./M. Def. + 10%, and Skill MP Consumption - 10%. Cannot be stacked with Art of Seduction. Buff remains after death.


2. Joon's Resurrection: can use Blessed Resurrection. Cooldown is 3 hr.
It has nothing to do with being hard to do.

I don't agree with it, but it's there to ensure that they don't post new items/discounts at a time when people are still able to make a purchase.


I said DURING the maintenance , maybe you dont know , but you cannot buy anything during maintenance :D
And as far as i know you cannot buy event items that havent actually been put in the l2 store .. unless OFC u know better lmao
A few errors that need correcting on the event page:

Galup departs the game and the event concludes.,

Tiny error but there is a extra , at the end which doesn't seem to belong there


All remaining event items are deleted: Carrot, Carrot Pouch, Galup's Speical Luck Pouch, Galup's Gift Pouch, and Maphr's Wind Scroll.

Also a typo on this sentence on the word "special" typed as "speical" (this typo happens a few times in the article).

BTW are the maphr's wind scroll not the same as the ones people get from daily box / daily coin rewards?
If they are the same wouldn't be nice to delete them because then you delete people their non event related items too.


Monsters in all hunting zones will drop Carrots. In addition, carrots can also be purchased from the L2 Store.

All hunting zones or only the hunting zones for awoken characters (normally for events its only the awoken zones but might be different this time).


You already know of the broken images so no need to mention them other then a list of the images that are broken below.

Appearance stones:
Dark knight
Blue musketeer
Red musketeer

Buff sets:
Knight
Warrior
Wizard

Zodiac agations:
Faint
Normal
Radiant
Twinkling
Blessed

Preview pictures
Blue musketeer male and female
Red musketeer male and female


I like the attention you have given to outline almost every single aspect though would you happen to have additional information about the following new items?

Gran Kain's Miraculous Medicine
Source of the Emperor
Ring of Creation


Thanks for getting the event details up before downtime and for very complete information about it that you already provided.

Sorry everyone!

You get x1 Source of the Emperor? or multiple?
So if i buy 40k carrot, 1 Pouch its 4.5m and will have 1k try, not bad at all.
But the reward list have to many item, i hope we get enough fragment.

Edit:
Nice reward list, cant see to many item that less then 4.5m, so this event will be awesome.

Scroll: Enchant Armor - (R-grade)
Fortune Pocket - Stage 1 (x10)
Fortune Pocket - Stage 2 (x3)
Blessed Scroll of Escape (x10)
Bottle Fragment of Orfen's Soul (x5) "1m fully"
Bottle Fragment of Freya's Soul (x5)

I think that it
The maximum number of Shortcut Bars will be increased from 4 to 5, and the maximum number of Shortcut Pages will be increased from 10 to 20.

THANK YOU.
The agathions from the event, are those the ones that have active skills like br, blessed resurrection, etc?
When are we going to see any of the below as the Month of August is more then half way done already ?



Player Appreciation Weeks


Server Settings event!
Special gift box full of useful goodies for hunting!



Stay tuned for more details!


At least the Monkey event gave us Banana buffs that boosted fun for grinding some serious XP, this Horse stuff doesn't really give much in that regard for your 102+ player base..

Also as this concerns special event items please advise if drop rate runes have any influence on the carrots drop rate ?

I don't think it was affected last year.
why u guys are destroying all good events this year?

horse was so good bcs of small reward table...
but now what ppl will get will be: frag bottles( is stupid. need x1000 frag to make 1 bottle) enchant scrolls. fortune pockets, bscapes, and some useless mid and high grade spirit stones.

this drop table is so big that for u to get anything close to good the chances are almost 0
Is it just me or others cant see either those Blue Musketeer or Red Musketeer Appearance pictures in event page?
I tried to see them with Opera and Firefox.

Thanks!!!!!
Again you forgot to add Mystic Humans and Orcs to that Dark Knights pics QQ
I dont understand the sudden change of Soul Bottle Fragments decreased from 10 to 5 or even 1. You do realise you will need 10.000 Fragments to complete a single Antharas and Valakas? In last Hungry Horse Aug 2015 it dropped 10 each at random. QQ.

Cheers,
Bennie

Where is this pack?

Well, since launch of GoD in 2011 and pay-to-win system, every event here is "offer from e supermarket".
I miss those days before GoD. It is not that I do not like game update, I just miss pay-to-play
pls don't give them ideas they have time to ask for 30e for 2 months log in
We cant buy carrot with hero coin?
:mad: cuando van activar la creacion de cuentas!!!!!!!!!

As I wasn't around in Aug 2015: what did the carrots cost, same as now?
"Claim Player Appreciation Pack on L2 Galleria"
Where is this pack?

+1. Been looking around but cannot see it!!! Has it been added yet? If not when?
the agations of this event are permanent?
What are the updates to the ncstore?
Want to thank NC staff on behalf of regular players for this wonderful bundle! Keep going with the good work.

Opening the Zodiac Agathion box randomly rewards (1) Faint Zodiac Agathion Virgo, Capricorn, Libra, Aries, Taurus, Leo, Gemini, Scorpio, Aquarius, Pisces, Sagittarius or Cancer. You can use compounding for a chance to combine (2) Zodiac Agathions of the same type to the next stage

Upgradeable Zodiac Agathions(without the starlight jar BS) I'd say yes... expiratory would not be upgradeable.

Got sarcasm?
Juji wth you aware that one bottle require 10k fragments ? :) . With this rate we wont make even one bottle here and to make blessed anthy or valakas need 10x bottles . Cmon . You should add packages of 100x or smthing. :D
its a horse supose to spawn while u hunting or not????

drop runes affect the carrot drop rate?

Drop Runes does not affect the carrot drop rate!!!!
All remaining event items are deleted: Carrot, Carrot Pouch, Galup's Special Luck Pouch, Galup's Gift Pouch, and Maphr's Wind Scroll.

- Please confirm you will delete the Maphr's Wind Scroll 100% after event. We had such situations already in the past were NC said items will be deleted after event and in the end the items were not deleted.

- If you really delete them why do you give us so many of them as reward. rewards should not be deleted. ppl paid ncoins for them and you delete them? Im normally not the guy who cries here for everything i dont like but i feel duped in this case!
Still cant create character?

Agree, 1 month event and there are dozens of thousands maphrs on server. What to do with so many maphrs if you want to delete them?

why to delete nice opportunity to exp ? especially when there is no lvl cap.
Radar on any pony. Wow. The irony :D
Doesn't seem right a huge portion of the rewards we paid for are gonna get deleted, we paid real cash for these. This event would of been nothing without the ncstore. Why not delete the rings too then?
Juji,

Please confirm one way or the other about the Maphyrs?
Most of us spent considerable RL money on Ncoin to recieve a bunch of these. I'd like to know if I need to burn them or if I can save/stockpile some for the future big xp bosses.

I actually agree with this about the level cap, but the clowns asking if they will be removed as if they don't know are lol.

Noone forced you to buy the carrots from the NCstore, you could've just went around the map and get them from the horses, that spawn. NCstore is only optional :rolleyes:

they just need to read a 'yes' from juji to start cry again
it's all about server economics

Yes -> prices will drop on them
No -> prices will sky rocket and stay stupid high for Months just like with Freya scrolls

either way it's what ever as long as there's clear upfront communication as to what will happen so folks can plan accordingly

Let's be realistic, nobody bought those carrots just to be able to stock pile those Maphr scrolls aka people will still buy carrots even if Maphr get removed at the end so let's stop the drama ;)
@Juji, do not delete maphr's scrolls cause some ppl payed real money for these..
@Juji, delete them pls as intended, as you wrote in the event description page.

(anyway ppl, will be 12 october, you'll have time to use/sell them)
@Juji, do not delete maphr's scrolls cause some ppl payed real money for these..

stop babbling, as draecke said, no1 bought carrots for maphr and wouldnt stop to buy if there was no maphr on event
lmao
No, but last year was a cluster f#@k. I have 600, do I put them in a macro and spam or can I save and use 2 a day in k95 all year. I say delete them as intended, but be clear up front if not gonna.
10/12 is the deletion date for the Maphr Wind Scrolls from the event.

How many times I have to tell to your stupid Developers that Zaken drops Forgotten scrolls?
For what the f we need them?

From all MMORPGs only L2 has useless old quests' items, which nobody use them!

For what the f I need Certificate of Dawn, reward from quest:
Seven Signs, One Who Seeks the Power of the Seal (https://l2wiki.com/Seven_Signs,_One_Who_Seeks_the_Power_of_the_Seal)
Again to change it for Forgotten scroll???

Of all the problems in this game, you want them to spent time to fix this? No1 care, sell them to npc, I think I'd rather next target work then a deleted drop.
GL ncwest with the new bot, u guyz gonna need it.

It's not professional to "jump" into the new update, without fixing the old bugs, items and quests! But hey!
That's why WoW is the best MMORPG!
