About olympiad calculation points

General Discussion Started Last reply 18 posts
Good day!! Question about olympiad. After this month cycle of olympiad how can we get our points calculated again because we can't find the option in NPC saying calculate points. Hope for some answers here. :):):)
i wonder about this too
yeah i have the same question is this some sort of bug or they did ninjapatch and removed opportunity to claim battlemarks after point calculation.
Also I would like information about this, in the patch note I did not see anything talking about the removal of this function, as well as I did not see anything talking about removing some items like the (Summon's Scroll - Angma's).

Two things to note:

1. When Staroto pointed out this problem yesterday, it was already Saturday in Korea.

2. In Korea they have a different Olympiad System where players from all servers compete against each other:

This is not a simple bug that can be fixed by repairing a broken html link or something like that; it requires a fundamental redesign of the Olympiad Manager.

Don't expect any solutions soon :p
Imagine that we have 1st April but they are not joking.

Yidao, maybe you know how this is in Korea? How oly points/marks work there? If we all know the with 10+ mach per month (~1h oly in 8-10 day) w/o to even win there anyone may take 1000+ marks and a lot of game items may buy with that marks of battle we realy lose in gear/economy way. This must be fixed soon if is possible till next oly days because if we not change points till Friday we lose points from last month. So where is point to log chars and make oly if is not any benefit from that.
In the Korean World Olympiad, which is what we don't have, you must participate in at least 30 matches/30경기 *상 참가. If you stay in the ranking below the top 50% players, you get 40 points "minimum wage" from the system, and that can be converted into Marks of Battle at the rate of 20 Marks per point. If you don't win at all during this month, you get an additional 5 points, which makes overall 45 points, i.e. at least 900 Marks of Battle just for participating.

If you win at least one match, you get overall 40+30=70 points, which converts into 1400 Marks of Battle.

The maximum you can get is if you are in the top 1% of participants, where you get 80+30=110 points aka 2200 Marks of Battle.
If you should make Hero, which is very difficult (there is only one Maestro Hero chosen from all servers together, one Titan Hero from all servers together etc.) you get an additional 40 points aka 800 Marks of Battle.

In Korea the Marks of Battle as well as the merchandise (Giant's Codices etc.) are given out by the Olympiad Manager:

As you can see, the Korean system is very different from what we have. Solutions that work over there certainly won't work with our "hybrid system" (World Olympiad merchandise with Server Olympiad calculation). In other words, Overseas Chief Developer Nam Taek-rim and his 11 helpers (http://lineage2.power.plaync.com/wiki/%EC%A0%9C%EC%9E%91%EC%A7%84) will need to find a completely new, hand-tailored solution for the export version. This will certainly take time, even if they move the issue to the top of their to-do list.

tnx
this is from long ago or come in korea with "this our" update when up there?
btw I like this world hero system, maybe is time for more competition in oly, not just for heros but to anyone may get anyone, "feed" will be much less there. also 1400 marks look nice :)

maybe till lose time to fix our old system they may implement this new korean in nc west side :)
The World Olympiad as described above was introduced on March 16, 2016, two months before Grand Crusade (May 18):
http://lineage2.plaync.com/board/update/view?articleId=615201&page=2

It was a reaction to the lack of players on most Korean servers, which led to people having to wait half an eternity for an Olympiad match, and because many had better things to do than sitting in front of the Olympiad Manager in vain for hours on end, nobody was registering any more, which led to even fewer matches taking place.
As it is now, in the new system, players from all servers are competing together on one dimensional server, which is equivalent to having multiplied the number of participants in the Olympiad by the factor 9. This is also the reason why you must now participate in at least 30 matches per month to get any Marks of Battle - there is no more need for afk lvl 85 Giant Energy farmers to bolster the number of participants.

What you must keep in mind is that Korea is a one-timezone territory, so the number of Olympiad participants really adds up. At NCWest you will face the same problem as with the Dimensional Siege and Raid - when is the event supposed to take place? A time that is good for Californians will be really bad for Siberians. Maybe one half of the player base won't be able to participate in the Olympiad any more because they are either at work on Friday or already sleeping.

What I like about the new system is the requirement for at least 30 matches accompanied by more Marks of Battle being paid out. It should be no problem to win at least one of those 30 matches, so you have de facto a minimum income of 1400 Marks per month. Insofar I agree with you - instead of wasting man-hours on doctoring around on the current fail version of the Olympiad, they should rework it from zero, with the new system for example being introduced when our servers are merged into two. Until then, maybe the developers can come up with a simple script that automatically pays every Olympiad participant 800 Marks of Battle at the end of the month. That would be better than nothing :)

Yes, now, when codex/mastery codex 1 is in list to buy with marks to not get reword in end of month is just lose time for ppl in oly...
Just don't play oly - do not participate at all (unless you play for a hero). Massive decline in participants' numbers will force the administration to work, it's simple. Otherwise you just feeding p2w/rmt guys, and for this job you ain't paid :p

Its pretty simple... no reward > no participation.
To the Nc West-->
Just give 1100 marks to any noble status toon, and ppl will stop complaining, u may do this till problem is fixed, they used to do the same on L2 EU when oly was bugged with marks reward.
