Letter collector's event returns again with new rewards.
13th Anniversary
On Friday April 28th, Join us in-game on each server to celebrate Lineage II's 13th Anniversary
The Development Team is working on a 13th Anniversary Event, but it will come much later after the Anniversary Date.
Veteran Rewards will return later also, but at the same time as the 13th Anniversary Event.
Bug fixes for issues in Grand Crusade
Fix to the Olympiad Calculate Rewards button will be addressed soon. Once the button is restored, you should be able to claim your rewards earned in March.
Permament Fix to Messiah Citadel Entry requirements, it's meant to be lowered to 14 members but sometimes was changing back to 21.
Hero Cloaks are not yet removed. We have asked the Developement to look into this and provide a way to delete the cloaks from the game permamently if the intention was to remove them in Grand Crusade.
Additional fixes will continue to roll out over the coming weeks and months as we triage through any reported issues.
Dragon Boss spawn time during the event
In the current event, Raid boss spawn time is decreased by 50%
Last year, the observation was that the Dragon Bosses would respawn every 5 days
This time, the Dragon bosses were respawing 1 day earlier every 4 days instead
This resulted in confusion on which is the intended amount of time, we asked the Developement Team to clarify this.
We have not recieved an answer to this question yet.
EXP Difficulty for Lv. 106 and higher levels
In Grand Crusade, the maximum level has increased which expands on the requirements needed to level-up.
We understand that many have voiced concerns that the difficulty is too great, and I have asked the Development to look at this and see what their thoughts are on this.
Change to Entry Requirements to Valakas and Antharas
In Grand Crusade, the Dragon bosses have been changed so that only 1 Command Channel can enter, but there were no other changes made to the rules. This has resulted in not a very interesting tactic to leave dead characters near the Portal Stones and whoever clicks the button faster can enter.
We are changing the entry requirements so that you need at least 35 Living members of the Command Channel to enter. We intend for the Dragons to be a end-game pvp competitive activity, and you must prove your worth by crushing your foes so that they cannot enter the boss before you, please plan to adjust your tactics accordingly.

Great news about the dragons, but if wars aren't up and people aren't flagging, you still can't pvp, and they will still be click wars. Any chance of just making AL heart, and the area around Klein pvp zones?

106 is difficult? Really now? How should I put this... Do you, at NC West even realize that most players are still not even 104 yet?
I entered active legit clan with ~60 real people there, only 5 were 103! Others are 101-102!
None of my friends is even 103. Most are 101-102 - and that are active players, playing every day. I am not talking here about few % players from so called top clans which waste $$$ hard and powerleveled in no time through greatly overpriced runes and vit potions.
Top locations like Atelia Fortress field or Garden - are empty since Helios update in Jun 2016. Because there is not enough players 102+ to form parties there.
Difficulty is great? Oh, no. Problem is not that. Problem is your l2store prices. Compare with official Russian servers where premium account(including 30 day 100% exp rune) costs only 8$ per month.
Compare with other popular US mmorpg where 15$ each month gives you ability to farm instances twice each day(or twice during reuse period if we can talk here about our Balok for example) without any "tickets".
I know prices are high in US, so it could be, let's say - 15 or 20$ each month for 100% rune and double instances. But now only 100% exp rune for month(only exp! no other bonuses), i mean four 7day runes; costs 45$ ! :confused:

So only 1 CC can enter still? This wont change anything as stated above because if wars aren't up and its not a PvP zone like Kelbim then it wont matter. This will not be effective.

It would be for the best if you just postpone the 50% raid boss spawn settings until you have the fix since instead of helping us players you are just making it even harder for us since we don't have the specific time spawn and it becomes a who sees the dragons up first gets to raid it and no competition for raids is happening.
Also I suggest that raids like Beleth and Trasken be moved outside of peace zones to promote more PvP action. And make it that instead of you need 35 people to be alive you will need to have 80% of the total members in a CC to be alive to make things simple if my CC is consists of 100 members my CC will need to have 80 ppl alive to enter. Since bottomline 35 boxes is not that hard to pull off nowadays and we will still see clans like DragonHunters bringing 35 boxes from their box clan in Dragon NPC's while their members who are in the clan is lying dead waiting to port.

They're making changes, yet you're still not satisfied with them, honestly this is becoming more pathetic and pitiful by the week.

I understand your distaste with my proposal since it will negate your clans next plan to avoid competition and to do free farming during dragons since one of your leaders named Dudot and I dare quote him "Dragons is a PvE event". But regardless my proposal wouldn't benefit any specific person but it will benefit everyone since farming dragons is a privilege and not a right it's an end game raid wherein the strongest gets to farm it not whoever clicks the fastest or whoever brings the most dead characters in NPC :)

Putting me directly into DragonHunters wow, rather speechless. What, if I told you, I'm in RisingStar? :rolleyes: Makes me wonder what are your first thoughts after waking up, during the day and before you go sleep. I'm positive, that during the day, when you go outside, if you go that is, you see people walking around with the DragonHunters clan crest. The only distaste, that you yourself provide is, the usual daily stupid shouts, which majority of the server agrees on and the weekly attention wh******ring topics being made on the forum.
How long would it take you to start whining and complaining on the forums, if let's say DragonHunters wouldn't manage to get to a dragon and you kept the kills on your clan? Probably wouldn't, right? ;) Everything was fine, till DragonHunters entered a dragon not so long ago ^^

Yes! finally a player event where u have to play to get the rewards! oh im gonna kill mobs till my hands bleed, any advice on wich mobs to hunt neutron? answer in code like "now that u PLANTed that question" xD
Men, Love what u've done with the place
This time, the Dragon bosses were respawing 1 day earlier every 4 days instead
The respawn time is not the same for both dragons "4days" as you say... Wednesday after the update Valakas and Antharas died 3 mins away from each other and spawned around almost 1day one after another.
Valakas at 4 days and 3-4h and Antharas at 4 days and 20h.
Hero Cloaks are not yet removed. We have asked the Developement to look into this and provide a way to delete the cloaks from the game permamently if the intention was to remove them in Grand Crusade.
Its not wise to delete such item because its mark of being hero in some times. Just like wings of destiny circlet you should keep hero cloak and just make it useless for normal wearing (making its stats same like class cloak and everyone will use exalted cloak, but those who love appearance of hero cloak and have it will be happy).
Thanks for thinking about this.

So no anniversary this year again?
No anniversary event = no anniversary.

No anniversary event = no anniversary.
Agreed I was hoping for a stackable vit event or a increase af daily entrance week or a bone. Lineage doesn't give bones to players they give chronos and junk. It shouldn't be login and get gm buffs and dragon buff for 3 hours it should be an event. Very disappointed Neutron
Great news about the dragons, but if wars aren't up and people aren't flagging, you still can't pvp, and they will still be click wars. Any chance of just making AL heart, and the area around Klein pvp zones?
Partially agree on that. Please, consider making area of 900 radius around entering NPCs the PvP zone.
I guess that if there's no event for the 13th anny at least they give something away that day to celebrate :D
Neutron thak you for taking the time to make this post. please if u are in the mood and have some details on the 13th birthday or the letter event give us an idea :D

1s u not even know when dragon will be up , u say 4 days ..... already passed and NOTHING .
2s U will change (like u say) for 35 LIVING member of the command channel to enter , AND HOW THE HELL HE WILL INCREASE THE PVP ? All carebears clans will stop war for try port in , or u think ANYONE IN THIS GAME will took 50-70 PKS ? So make DRAGONS pvp area is the only chance if u want PVP if u want PVE u can let it how he is it will be the same .
this! the dragon npc zones of Lindvior / Antharas / Valakas needs to be same as Kelbim area.
I'll actually buck the trend a bit here. But I disagree.
Move the dragon NPC's to their closest town (Goddard, Giran, Rune).
Remote the CC limits completely, and leave the instance open for 15-20 minutes after the first port in. No CC wide port in, every party leader needs to port in manually, any individual person needs to port in on their own.
Inside isn't an instance, dead people can lay there the whole time, no porting out. The standard "have a few minutes to log back in before kicked to town" deal if you DC.
Inside the whole area should be an open PvP zone just like an arena.
Not only does that remove the whole first to click enter wins issue... It means even a small force could potentially get a rez off on a healer and pop up at a clutch time to screw the raid over for an enemy.
That means a big clan that's used to mindlessly farming the dragons with o effort has to keep a constant eye out in case one of the people dead on the ground pops up.
That would truly enable PvP for the dragons. All making the port in area a pvp zone does is invite overwhelming force (with or without perma reds) to ensure that only one clan manages to port in. The actual killing would be completely mindless.
I dont know which ******ed made that quest with drop rate of approx 8 items per hour.
Yesterday i was in GC for 8 ****** hours and all i got was 100 ******* Quest items. Do u have any idea how long is gonna take us to finish that ******* quest??
Some people from my CP are only able to play for few hours during CP time how and when do u want them to be able to finish that ******* quest??
Im pretty sure im speaking from everyone when i say this:
1. If you want to leave that *** drop rate -> ADD THE GROUP ZONES TO THE QUEST

Does speaking to L2Store for you hurt a lot you?
Become a communist?
Or your new religion doesn't allow you to talk about L2 Store issues?
I bet you spend your precious money on other junk and vices and still criticize those players who enjoy and benefit from the L2 Store.
Who has seen you in the past you benefit so much from the L2 Store and now you talk so badly?
After all, became a poor human being is?

Very very interesting...good idea,...... a lot of crap, with all respect IF YOU WANT to make it fair for all server? Make those areas like in Gainak PVP zone and that's all sorted if you want to be so FAIR !!! Whith this other clans that don't accept war to prove their worth..!!
Regards
1. By changing requirements to 35 ppl for entering to a dragon, will not help anyone in game, besides the clans who already have anything.
2. Actually with these new rules, 2 parties+boxes can now enter and kill dragon easy, it is supposed to be the hardest bosses in game, not the easiest.
3. I understand that clans like Nova or DH etc etc break your "_" with petitions 24/24, about how game should be like this, or how game should be like that, and i understand that they re ur favorites too, since their toons who botted for years and they still rmt,have not banned yet.
But just think!! what if 400 ppl leave Chronos tomorrow and server end up like Zaken activity? You re not helping ur product to survive, many ppl already moving to other territories, start thinking why plz.
you read it wrong, the change is about needing 35ppl alive in your CC aka the minimum requirement to enter did not change
and no offense but Dragons were always mean to be PVP'd over, the current situation is totally carebear - threatening to leave is pointless as it means quit L2 as it ain't no different on any other L2 server with EU & RU having actually more stuff as PVP zones just for encouraging more competition.

Really bad idea if take that decision in freya server becauce MAX zerg dont have serious challenger to fight dragons.
With one cc death and fast click at less can do dragons sometimes with lucky.

randoms....
Neutron hurry up with the update getting bored with the cowardliness of our enemies :( I'm getting more action playing 1hr in EU servers than playing in a week in this servers >_> This servers turned this game into a PvE game and a cashcow for RMT players :(
How will make pvp area make things better ? Coze of corrupted stuff we see players that get banned xx times running around... Coze of corrupted gms we still see players using bot programs. Coze of corrupted game we gonna see how youll make the one thing that went in good direction revmaped and again setted up for those rmters. "only the worthy ones" hahahaha nice joke NC. indeed. Make it more " only the handless ones " it fits more.
And gap between you and "randoms" getting even bigger.
It seems that the only ones who are even capable of farming Dragons are Nova, Sun and MS... Neither of those clans getting them help/benefit the 'Randoms' you are referring to.
hello are you making the dragon area around port in a pvp zone? since pking is only 5 pks since you drop items and clans bring over 200 people? if you just make a pvp zone or allow more then 1 cc to port in will be good.... can you comment on this so the community knows? thanks
are you going to listen to the community and actually make end game content end game??? as in pvp which is all thats left...... and why dont you accept messages on forums? I thought you are jujiiies replacement ?

There is no such thing in Korea, they are implementing what had been put there soon here, where you need 35 alive to enter.
If you have a pve clan that has no wars up, then you're out of luck anyway.
PvP zone around the hearts is not a viable option and if it was, it would have been done years ago. And besides the only ones afraid to lose a dragon are the p2w randoms, which have a fair chance to enter too.
Otherwise, just make towns pvp zone too and all hunting territories, so we can have pvp for 2 weeks before the servers close down for good.
There is no such thing in Korea, they are implementing what had been put there soon here, where you need 35 alive to enter.

you say this but it is...and towns have been pvp zones just like wars one chronicle have been forced AND AUTO ACCEPTED for 1 week
We intend for the Dragons to be a end-game pvp competitive activity, and you must prove your worth by crushing your foes so that they cannot enter the boss before you, please plan to adjust your tactics accordingly.
The change on dragons for not being able to port everyone dead is a good change because when clans decide to go into a war with each other, it should be carried out at port locations of epics as well. And there is still the option to pay 5k clanrep. points to end a war only for this purpose, so it leaves more clans the option to actually compete in epics in case it is not their main activity time and it has its price (clanrep.) already.
Making it a pvp zone would only lead to
1st: only the channel with the strongest tank as cc leader can port first(lame and other classes maybe want be also cc leader on top of that),as everyone run in pvp zone 10 secs before respawn with celest. aegis,and it is not easy to topaz a full skilled tank.
2nd: many "solo" players (yuls/feoh) will go there to shoot players near heart from outside of the pvpzone (dont get pink /not start 5 kills warcount) which will give a single person a huge chance for impact/influence a raid CC that puts alot of effort to make a command channel when on the other hand the effort of the "solo" player is slightly to none.
3rd: even less clans will try to compete for epics as there are now.
There used to be always pvp for dragons even when there was no pvp zone. And how often do pvp clans actuallly pvp for kelbim at port? I can not remember one fight at kelbim port on chronos and we are supposed to be the most populated server.
I know at least 700 players on chronos who do not want a pvp area everywhere because it takes away a clan´s decision to fight a mututal war and leads to make the warsystem completely obsolete. It would simply kill competition even further but i guess that is the main purpose of the few ppl spamming forum about this:))) Now dragon port winnings are not about fastest click,more about who is better in organising pvp groups to pull the enemies far away so the pve groups of the enemy can not port. Sorry for my newbie english...
There are so many carebears spawning around like mushrooms.....
Dragons is an end game content reserve only for the Top PvP clans it's a shame that the mentality of today's wanna be "Top" players have been plague with who clicks first shall get the dragons. What's a shame even more is this players who are carebearing their way to take a dragon is not gearless players but rather this are players running around with full +10 dark sets, dark weapons some even with dragon weapons and are heroes....
If this is gonna be the mindset of people I would rather have 2 servers in NCWest a PvP server and a PvE server :D

You're pretty much contradicting yourself in this argument first off why would the "p2w randoms" be afraid to lose dragons? Like you said they are "p2w" meaning they can have everything in this game without even doing a single dragon or taking a drop from dragons. And nowadays how this game turned out if you spend a little bit of cash like lets say at least a 100$ a month on events and say you get lucky every now and then you'll get more items than those people who are doing this dragons simply because how many players are in a clan who has to share the drops of dragons? All we want is for the end game content which are the dragons to start looking like an end game content which should be competed for and fight for and like I've said in my last post "Dragons is not a right for every player to be farmed its a privilege.
And lastly I don't see why there has been an ongoing bitterness of cheap players towards "p2w" players first off what they are spending in this game is not your money its their hard earned money and its their right to do as they please. It's your own right as well not to spend any cash in this game and no one is pushing you to spend just don't cry that you get steamrolled by them it's like in real life don't expect that you can out race a ferrari when you only spend 15k$ on a car :rolleyes:

And too stupid to realize, without people spending money they wouldn't have a game to play.

People always need something to attach a cause to or complain about how they have been wronged. Do I think it's sad when people spend a ton? Yep. Do I care? Nope... Not my money being spent, lol.
Spend as much or as little of your $$ on your entertainment, it's none of anyone else's buisness. Some people ONLY play L2 and spend a bunch on it, some play many games, some with subscriptions and spend money there, who cares?
Now how NcWest/NcSoft is taking advantage of people and or not putting resources into their product, that's a whole other topic.
And too stupid to realize, without people spending money they wouldn't have a game to play.
For sure high spenders maintain the game economically
But without cheap spenders / f2players, with only 100 ppl left on server even high spenders won't pay so much, or maybe won't pay at all. And server will close soon.
this is a pve/pvp game.... that's why u have to send war to others clan to become a pvp clan... so...is pointless turn into pvp, a pve thing like kill a dragon.... whats next? make pvp zone field raidbosses? why pvp clan are interested in this? we all know dragon weapons are RMT items.... even field raidboss are getting farmed by suppliers to sell adena for real money.

All players are important. Just think about it ;)
Yes I get it, I never said they weren't. The difference is you don't see people who spend money constantly complaining about the freeloaders all the time on these forums.
rofl xD
The current player base of L2@NCWest is do afraid to lose...
If you make dragons Npc fields pvp, you gonna let a lot of people out of chance to port in Dragon. Only need look, who have GAINAK MONOPOLY in each server, then you can know how affect the server and other ally, clans. The current system is the best option, because, all server have the chance to port. NcWest, no make other MONOPOLY in dragon.:cool:.

This system actually change nothing, Freya server for example, MAX still getting all dragons, because they have enough activities to enter on dragons what ever the respawn time, because MAX have south american, american, asian and european players. They can get enought toons to enter at every time.
But ppl will still complaining "We was not ready for the dragon spawn, pls reset it, you let MAX getting dragons ... qq ... qq ... qq .. qq" ...
Make this zone PvP will let actually more chances to lower clan to enter. For example, 06 PM GMT+2, on dragon spawn. Topest clan are 25/30 ppl almost ready to enter. Lower clan have 70/80 ppl. Even with less equipement, they could beat this 25/30 ppl. Because off mass opponent. Equipement can make a hudge difference especially on same number opponent, but the number change it A LOT. And usually thoses topest clan, have full activities only for sieges and dim sieges, this mean 120/130 ppl ready to PvP.
Make this entrance zone PvP, or make the inside instance PvP zone, and let 2/3 CC able to enter .. Both solutions are pretty good from my point of view.

Maybe you need make ally, with people of different side of world.
You can see what happen in Chronos, Nova or Apex have the same chance to enter.
And maybe other ally can be too. But if you make pvp, this gonna be a MONOPOLY, like GAINAK.
I suppose that gainak in Freya server, have 1 clan Monopoly too. And this is the way for get Dark Stones, in game. This make impossible that more people can get Dark gear.
And how often do pvp clans actuallly pvp for kelbim at port? I can not remember one fight at kelbim port on chronos and we are supposed to be the most populated server.
This.
The only reason Nova and other farmer/rmt clans ask for making dragons area a pvp zones is let them farm in peace. None of them care of actually pvping there.
Apex people are so oblivious. You act as though Festo/cr3atur3/kungfubunny/hanza are not lining there pockets or skimming off the top from each raid. Your anakims/liliths. They are making billions why you are making 10-20million. Good game. Do you guys get paid out for dragon claws that are worth billions each. those are not even factored, yet sunshine hoards those in their clan warehouse. Where does Snatcher/bunny get +18 darkbow. RMT of course. Dont believe everything Sunshine tells you. Lets go Core and DR start to question things because you guys arent getting everything you are entitled to.

This is probably one of the very few reply's that's actually true and makes sense. I don't second doubt that some of the raids money goes missing but i'm pretty sure this goes for every other clan that has done dragons before. But you can't get robbed if you don't participate right?

lol yet another butthurt nova forum warrior looking into someone's pocket.
This kind of propaghanda is too dumb even for you guys.
We all know how Cr3atur3 or Snarcher made their gear. It's so ******* special secret - you can see their toons every day selling and buying stuff in Giran. And Festo/Hanza have no real gear - they must be the most horrible raid drops robbers in history :-D
If 10-20 million is what Nova pays to their pets for bringing their bodies to dragon raids it doesn't mean we have the same. And you know it from people you've recruited.
I understand from Grand Crusade patch notes that hero cloaks along with other hero staff like circlets are to be removed. This is certain cause current new heroes cannot claim such gear, whereas current heroes that happened to be heroes before, have them and can actually use them.This is certain also cause every reply on my tickets has confirmed that they should not exist in game anymore.So what confirmation exactly do you wait from the development team?
Since this item gives 15% pvp damage reduction, you understand very easy that,for players who do a top level pvp in game, being able to still use this item is like an exploit of the game, that Ncsoft actuallly allows to happen. I wonder who Ncsoft is trying to protect with that delay of removal of these items, and why all this issue and waiting days between support team and development team and possible solutions..... this is not serious for a company like you.....just take the list of heroes (or even 1-3 places) during March, log in their inventory...and delete glorious cloaks by hand..... it is so easy to do that......you have done it many times for many items in the past in similar or different occasions.......why all this discussion about that specific itmes? i say again do you try to protect somebody from losing that enormous 15% pvp damage reduction?
Dear Neutron, if you are really to change something in this game, please at least take fast action on this issue that should be so simple to resolve. Log in personally and delete the items during current maintenance today. YOU are the manager of this game!!!! Come on......don't ******** as with stupid excuses like "we are working on this".....and please excuse my language...but I am really frustrated when I here such replies from a company at your level.
How can anyone expect you will actually fix anything, or respect your efforts or even believe you are making any efforts, if you need like a month to simply remove/delete one item?
Thank you in advance for your actions I expect to be taken.

Every hardcore MARKET player knows that Sunshine has at least three members who are very smart and dedicated to invest their own adena, you forgot to name one of them though:) As for that crazy bow ,it was purchased with adena+ items as trade, no clanwh was involved.
As for claws, it goes to the cwh that makes and organize the CC. Core and DR have also claws in their cwh as their leaders lead these raids. Else cwh takes no cuts from rest of drops. One day Nova laughs about my +6 set and +7 weapons, next day I am a looot thief- please make up your minds!
I have a few ideas:
1. Get rid of L2 Store and make the game pay per month like we used to have.
2. Get rid of Olympiad
3. Make all raid bosses completely random
I personally think Neutron is trying to do a good job. Lighten up guys.

1) I remember the time before L2 Store. Tbh it wasnt much different, ppl. bought stuff/adena from RMTers just like they do now from the L2Store. At least now it's legit and the $$ goes to the right place and not to China or Russia anymore. Also too many ppl. would quit if they had to pay, it would kill the game.
My suggestions would be to lower prices in L2 Store so we don't lose more ppl to 4-Game anymore and also to add some XP-boost to the Prestige Pack so it would appeal to more ppl and not just the PVPers.
2) If you dont like it, don't play it.
3) Yep agree.

Agree too. At least till he (almost) vanished from the forum ;)

And how often do Core and Dr get to Lead Dragon raids???? Not every 3rd dragon thats for sure. Festo stop the lies and stop scamming your ally.
bilcosby and crafter if want to fight... go in a proper section, the one named by your server you play, or better go pvp in game.
Stop offtopic this thread. Do you think other players here are interested about whatever clan,ally, player from whatever server who did or not did whatever you think he did?
....pfff.

They already pay, and most pay more than we ever paid before the game was "Truly Free." If you aren't paying, then you're going to be worthless unless someone else is footing the bill.
This is the weakest of weak arguments.
RMTers could easily be tracked and banned. It's not hard. You're also acting like the presence of the L2Store stops the RMT. When people are taking a loss on their $$$ by converting NCoin to Adena, RMT is the way to go if you're going to make those types of serious purchases. In other words, it still happens. A lot.
My suggestions would be to lower prices in L2 Store so we don't lose more ppl to 4-Game anymore and also to add some XP-boost to the Prestige Pack so it would appeal to more ppl and not just the PVPers.
I think they should remove some of the XP Boosts from the L2Store and do something about gift purchases. Many of those items need to be non-tradeable, and some non-Giftable. They are not dropped in game. They should not be treated like it's some drop off of a field MOB.
2) If you dont like it, don't play it.
The game does force you to play it to some extent. Can someone do the Exalted Quests without having to deal with the cesspools of Olympiad or CoC?
106 is difficult? Really now? How should I put this... Do you, at NC West even realize that most players are still not even 104 yet?
I entered active legit clan with ~60 real people there, only 5 were 103! Others are 101-102!
None of my friends is even 103. Most are 101-102 - and that are active players, playing every day. I am not talking here about few % players from so called top clans which waste $$$ hard and powerleveled in no time through greatly overpriced runes and vit potions.
Top locations like Atelia Fortress field or Garden - are empty since Helios update in Jun 2016. Because there is not enough players 102+ to form parties there.
Difficulty is great? Oh, no. Problem is not that. Problem is your l2store prices. Compare with official Russian servers where premium account(including 30 day 100% exp rune) costs only 8$ per month.
Compare with other popular US mmorpg where 15$ each month gives you ability to farm instances twice each day(or twice during reuse period if we can talk here about our Balok for example) without any "tickets".
I know prices are high in US, so it could be, let's say - 15 or 20$ each month for 100% rune and double instances. But now only 100% exp rune for month(only exp! no other bonuses), i mean four 7day runes; costs 45$ ! :confused:
i must agree 1000% You guys should check your costumers, like every other business. You should ask more for opinions, what could go better, and really do something good, because my friends, i guess you are making the wrong questions there. GJ NCSOFT, i cant even farm in EV anymore cause mobs are RBs now!! GG

April 28th is my birthday in real life; and while everyone in chronos will be celebrating the 13th anniversary with GM event, I am gonna be working alone in my office...
I think I am gonna buy me a birthday cake, light the birthday candles, look in the mirror and sing the song, Happy Birthday To ME...
Just to tell you that I enjoy this event. The option to change 30 letter for a pouch with around 30 letter to get rare letter was good. I also appreciate that the drop rate of the pouch did not decrease during the month as we lived before in this event.
I am a player who bought alot of ncoins anyway but, this event has joined me more than the last one that its only '' update store ''.
I also know people around me without using the ncoins we managed to get items well.
It was just to make a little return on this event letter collection.
