WAS? lol, still is! gets better daily. not only that but i'm rewriting a lot of stuff by hand to be closer to retail like (just redid all the crit stun SAs and have started work on other weapon SAs). I've got a lot of stuff working that most other servers don't (most other admins don't even bother to look and see all that's broken). But thanks for saying it was good, just wanted to point out we're still an IS good. ;) Right now, all we need is more players to make pvp and raiding more fun.

God, I am so fucking tempted to go on there and see just how many exploits are open. :) I bet I can find at least half a dozen.

Most suck horribly because everyone uses the generic ones that they steal from other projects that are usually totally incompatible and mostly incomplete. A small handful of admins like myself actually put in the research time to add PROPER versions of the skills based on information from retail forums, retail sources, l2guru, l2wh, google, and a few other private sources. And even then, they still need small tweaks as new information gets filtered down to us. So honestly, I wouldn't suggest bothering with whatever you find online, they're most likely going to be shit. Do them yourself and be proud of your work. :) Took me a whole day just to research a small number of skills as can be seen by my changelogs: http://l2echo.com/changelog_0901.php But in the end, the time I invested was totally worth it. Especially when I see people like A-Style throwing around the same garbage skills that have been floating around for months that everyone just uses as-is. ;)

No such thing.

I disagree completely. Glad has tank like def and mdef, a buttload of HP, and does a ton of damage. Then you get skills like weapon blockade which if you follow retail values on the skill, you can disarm lock one person as long as the skill lands (60% base land rate). On top of that, a nice little run speed boost to catch up to runners, a self invincibility which allows for movement and attack, not to mention a decent ranged attack to finish off any runners near death. The only melee class more OP than gladi is titan.

lol, wow. i played there YEARS ago. when I revisted last year, i couldn't find a single person playing who was from the US. Honestly, that server had been going down hill for a while, but it had a huge ass population. too bad thinlan and dosmac never redid the site. it was ugly for years, lol.

Lol, yeah, gladis are OP'ed as hell on a server that allows for modified buff timers. Had to give them at 25% damage penalty in pvp only while they have a charge on. So they can do 100% pvp damage in melee with no charges, or reduced damage in pvp while attempting to use a skill, etc.

Really? I'd love to see some videos or replay vids of Beleth, or Darion, or Demon Prince, or Darnel, etc.

Well, for one most of the l2jserver community doesn't like you. Mostly because you go over there, grab whatever shares you can find, then throw it into "packs" for the tards without giving credit to the original creators (I've even seen some of my stuff in a screenshot for one of your packs a while ago, posted by you while you were still going by A-Style). But I've also seen your name on two different servers aside from this one in the past 3 months. Both of which you've inexplicably disappeared from shortly after. I don't know your reasons for leaving either one, but it seems that you can't stay with something for terribly long. So I'm just saying that from my past experiences with you and the things I've noticed (I don't stalk you or follow you around, I just read what other servers are doing, etc and I happen to notice your name once in a while), it doesn't show much promise for your own server. Not to mention, I can't remember when you've ever posted your own contributions over at the l2jserver forums.

Meh, most people are dual boxing, and during events many quad box and 8 box. A few months ago that server barely had over 500. Then when L2Refused shutdown, he sent most of them over to L2Inc, so that was about 500-700'ish. Then with some voting they probably picked up another +250. And almost everyone there dual boxes a buffer (not hard with L2Net or Walker, I had two buffers set up on L2R that were always on). So really, you're looking at maybe 1500 players, and the rest being run through L2Net/Walker. And to be honest, given how nBd acts and the fact that Nitrozik is on his team, I wouldn't doubt that they've modified the logout procedure on their server so that it still counts a player as being online despite having logged out.

Yup, that's exactly who I thought he was. Which means that he'll probably get bored of this in a few weeks and go do something else. From what I've seen he hops projects like mad.

Lol, so what happens when you use that service and someone else uses it too? Do you both get votes? See, services like that are just evil. Guy1 uses it, gets 1000 votes. Now Guy2 and 3 use it the next month, each of them get 1000 votes, but they still rely on their own players to vote as well to get numbers higher than the other guys who paid for the vote service. Then next month Guy 4, 5, 6, 7 use the vote service too. So once again, everyone is back to equal if everyone is using the vote service. The only thing different is they have less money because of the vote service. Honestly it's a pretty fucked up but ingenious idea for a product.

If you are who I think you are, then I've seen you on 3 different server projects in the past 3 months. Which raises the question, why can't you just stick with something for longer than a few weeks? O_oa

Seriously, are you all fucking retarded? Or are you all just trying to get your post count up? There is NOTHING HERE. The skills are shit, they're all set to NOTDONE. Meaning they don't work, they don't have stats, etc. If you want a Frint AI and SOMEWHAT working skills: http://www.l2jdp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=9654&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=frint But seriously, stop posting in this thread with it's shit contrib.

Little update... Beleth and Baylor have been implemented for a while. Aside from still needing a full AI of his own, Beleth has most of his skills working now. http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/8351/shot00083vv1.jpg (old screenshot before he was moved to his proper area) Baylor as well. http://img131.imageshack.us/img131/2980/shot00084db0.jpg http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/4264/shot00091uo4.jpg As well as Darion, Demon Prince, Ranku, Frint, and a handful of others. Now while I haven't sat down and done fully customized AIs for them, (Frint's and Baylor's are actually both done, but I've decided not to use the full scripting for either since I'm not a fan of making players run through the huge mess just to get to Frint and whatnot), most are implemented to some degree and the raidbosses are a lot more fun than what you'll find on most servers. :)

Regardless of how dead this server is or how shitty it is, it's rude to go advertising in their advert thread. Seriously...

See, that's what I don't get. Let's say you have 100k matk, and you need like, 10 shots to kill someone. Ok, so then why not have 10k matk and adjust things so that it still takes 10 shots to kill someone? What's the point of making everything extremely high if all you do is "balance" it? Doing 1 million damage to a player that has 10 million hp is no different than doing 1,000 damage to a player with 10k HP. All inflation does (be it damage or economy) is ruin a server. There's absolutely no need for it. Sure it's fun to do 1 mil damage, but after the first few times, it gets boring.

Yeah, we're doing our best to advertise it before the end of the month, that's when I'm taking it to the topsites (since most reset at the beginning of the month, no point in setting it up halfway through and bugging players about votes). :)

Well, let's break it down... What? Again, what? Not possible. Lag happens regardless of how good the network the server is on. Internet traffic will always influence the server's response times and your own. Not only that, but your ISP may have issues one day or some ISP between the server and you may have issues. Thus, lag. Not possible, at all. There will always be bugs to be found, exploited, and fixed. That's just how software is.

Seriously, how the heck do you have a 150Mb+ patch? The system folder, even when patched with l2encdec is less than 60Mb. Did you not compress your textures or did you modify every single texture in the game with high res 1024x1024 and up textures?

Your site looks like every other server's that gets posted here. Seriously, if you don't give a shit about your site, how can players expect you to give a shit about the server?

Already been mentioned. But like I said, nBd is kind of a dick to the L2J community. Fixes a bunch of shit but never commits it to core, just hides it on his server. Totally defeats the purpose of being a core dev on an open source project if you're never going to commit your fixes.

The bugger doesn't need gear, or adena, or time. He just needs to do a few quick glitches and he can kill anyone with stacked buffs and whatever else he came to the server knowing how to do. Even in starter gear I've seen it done. Quite funny really.

Well, give it another shot, 11 on at the moment, and there'll be more of course. :)

lol what? How hard is it to make an NPC with maxed stats? Like, 30 seconds? This isn't a guide, it's just some kid who exported an sql entry that encompasses maybe 1 minute's worth of work.
