All game servers will be down for maintenance beginning Wednesday, November 16, 2016 at 4:00am PST / 6:00am CST / 7:00am EST / 1200 GMT (https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/?qm=1&lid=8,6,5,2988507&h=8&date=2016-11-15&sln=4-9) and ending at approximately 9:00am PST / 11:00am CST / 12:00pm EST / 1700 GMT.

With this maintenance:

The Alien Invasion event will return!
Store updates will be applied.
Heine Fishing Coupons (http://www.lineage2.com/en/news/store-promos/heine-fishing-expedition.php) will be removed from the L2 Store.
Coupons that have already been purchased can still be used to purchase Heine Exclusive Bait.
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.

The "anti-bot" system is already in place and has been for a while, but we are making updates to it frequently. In addition, we have more plans to revise the Report Bot function in the future and add more anti-RMT/bot measures.

Any chance for server merges, or zaken transfers with tomorrow's maintenance, or anytime in the near future really?

I was referring to the Announcement that Juji did back in September

Bot Prevention Measures


More details coming soon!


I see people who are running auto-clicker alike programs for the past few month (mostly used in a PVP)

I can't really see it (atm), i know exeqtor was a huge scripter back when i was on Naia along with 95% of sh and nova and probably the rest of the Naia server (after all, i could not sign for a single coc match for 2 month). As for the video, i was referring to auto-clicker on a single hot-bar skill (e.g. Potions, EV). In the video his targeting was not automated.
Add compensation for all - week rune, say: sorry and give ukrain ppl play this nice game.

thats would be fair...since we lost time of our prestige pack!
Event Detail plz?
Server Already Up!
Please Conguero or Juji, I see in the forum several speculations as to what will be done in the future in relation to them. The brooch system was deployed on 09/04/2014, so we have jewelry in the game about 2 and a half years. It was only a few times during this time that we had a chance to buy the jewelry. Therefore, some of these changes will be made:

1) Will it be possible to pass the jewelry I have from any stage, to another character in the same account?

2) Just like stage 5 jewels, is it possible to pass stage 4 jewelry to any character?

3) It will be possible to "seal" the stage 3 jewelry or less, so I can pass the jewelry to any other character, but to equip then I need to give 2 clicks to "break" the seal (as is done with Talisman Longing, for example)?

I'm waiting for the answers. Thank you so much.
10 ncoin = 100 monster research

And no drop 1 book x mob? serious? what kind of trash event is this? 100% l2store event?, thanks. :cool:
I come here to make a complaint, that soon after the server goes online, aparesel in the areas of level low a lot of characters kamael, I can not say that they are BOT, I would like Game Master to check all these low level characters that are up , Since it is probable that all of them are BOT.
Chaos in NCWest, all servers DCing randomly.
I login to the game and get dc, i try to login again and manage to go to pin screen dc again, now dc at server selection...will we be able to play today?
I am 2 days away from finishing rift 100 c'mon!
Thanks for fail NM Kamaloka couse of DC after maintenance, again well done.
Reward is misleading: tried 6 capsules: 4 bress, 1 bsoe and 100 R crystals. All these items are not in reward list.
don't we all expected this mass dc's to happen?
Reward list without dark stones, rare accessories, shadow weapons. With 1 op blocking the raids in zaken there's no way to get stuff, no even in events now.

Yup I just opened a new event page. If you look closely, youll notice that the table is broken and only part of the page loads.

Im chill :)...I go mad only when i see a big company like NcSof cant handle proper their business and give us bad services, bad info,etc.
The Alien Invasion event page should be fixed now. We are also investigating the issues with the server disconnects.

Apologies for the inconvenience!

I didnt have "first screen" like you ..i think i open it later event page and it was like I post.
Ofc, like a noob, I double check with mozilla, chrome and Ie :))
On my smartphone I see the complete table, on my PC I see the broken page if I use Chrome, but IE shows the complete page, same as my smartphone.
Lol china added again to the block list XD
ty juji.....:)

thats great it is fix now. However if the full information was given prior to the event I would not have done anything with it
quite predictable when you IP block Russia and the like and even more so when it means no more easy money for them rmt farmers of those regions.. ddos attacks are cheap after all..
I want to help killing aliens, but the DC's will not let me... :mad:
The server does not stop falling. No playing conditions like that. T.T:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
L2 Team, network has been dcing for the past 3 days now. When will this be fixed?

Also, compensation should be provided for time lost and the frustration.
All time DC after DC.... WTF? :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

oowwwwwwwwww server dc event............................
If you have 500 or more dc will win a gun dark +25 direct from juji hands...... Really ncsoft, that is pure incompetence -.-"
all time dc after dc.... Wtf? :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

dc event y have 15 no go pick weapon dark ="(
At first the Misc rewards were missing from the reward table and edited after we bought NCcoins **** For sure something must be done here. :rolleyes:
this event should have had chapter 1 codexs but nah let's add more useless standard r/r95/r99 gear of which exist plenty on all servers..
It will be included with the Alien Invasion event.

A new Block Spammer feature will be added tomorrow. You can right-click on player names in chat window and easily block them (http://i.imgur.com/KPsweSK.jpg).

The "anti-bot" system is already in place and has been for a while, but we are making updates to it frequently. In addition, we have more plans to revise the Report Bot function in the future and add more anti-RMT/bot measures.





Ty Juji There are still many cheaters here and crying because new accounts can not be created
I for one am glad about the country ban. You have done a good job fighting bots/rmt first with anti bot, and now with this.

Could you please add Romania to the list?
Juji your day work almost ended, plz say something.
a few minutes ago, i tried to access lineage2.com and got dns problems with the msg that the site was moved to another adress....

whats going on???? can u tell me why????i did like 20 access in like 10 minutes, ask a bunch of friends to access, they tell me that it was ok for them to enter the site, but it was with dns problems for me.

whyyyy??? whyyy????? god????? whyyyy???? wheres my life????
The continued DDOS attacks sounds like a relentless plea. The roots of profiteers sure do stem deep and wide, and yet NCWest was not prepared to deal with this level of corruption. Scary!

Their ISP will eventually mitigate the attack, but it depends on their SLA etc.
Mission 01 - Collect Monster Research

Monsters in all hunting zones will drop Monster Research. In addition, Monster Research can also be purchased from the L2 Store. However, when characters that are Awakened or have completed their 3rd liberation hunt monsters in lower-level hunting zones (below 85), no Monster Research books will be dropped for them.

Monster research dosent drop at all from monsters.

I got some yesterday from 85+ area. The rate is terrible though... got 3 books in 30minutes or something... considering you need 100 for 1 capsule.

My conclusion is that - even if you get books - the drop rate is so abysmal that it cant be taken seriously. Its a hoax to give you a feeling that the mobs give you something worthwhile...

l2store on the other hand gives you 200.000 books instantly.

Its quite obvious that the event is cash-shop only.

In 20 minutes I was able to collect 135 from Aliens. But it is time limited as well :D

I have no idea how you manage to get 27 Aliens during 20minute period when killing the Alien alone takes like 20-30seconds.

Outside the 20-23pm timeframe I was able to find 2 Aliens within 30minute.

The Alien Spawn rate is boosted during the Hot-Hours?
