Let's stop rewarding football players with money along their trophies for their good performance because that means we pay them to play ? Paying someone to -join- your server is completely irrelevant to rewarding winners with money. Let me break it down for you; Paying specific clans/cps to join gives them a massive advantage against the rest who don't get anything. Look at L2 Dex. IR side's cps were given a lot more money/coins than the other sides and they literally won the server by default. All they had to do was rush in, AOE and outgear their enemies. I won't explain what kind of gear/services gave them that big of an edge, you at least get the concept. Now, rewarding someone for winning a battle/competition on equal grounds is fair. All clans will start with the same tools and there won't be any unfair starting advantage. If you win on equal grounds, then you deserve to earn a reward. Do you understand the difference ?

If you had graduated from high school and had acquired basic reading skills, you would have understood that what I said is exactly the opposite. I'm not sure if you're deliberately trying to play dum dum and push this strawman argument, or you're just really that much of a 2 digit IQ person, or both. High school dropouts having opinions, "yikes".

I don't think you're picking a fight and your question makes sense in general, but the whole point of owning retail formulas is to offer the only project that resembles 100% what it was like playing on servers like Teon, Franz, Bartz and so on. Also, it holds the collector's value. Imagine a very rare coin of 1 cent. Its typical value is 1 cent, but it can be sold for 3.000 or even higher. My point is that yes, you can easily change MC rate buffs, set caps, or create your own MC rate formula if you're using Java code, but you will never have the original version. Most L2J projects don't even have an MC rate formula at all, but just use a static value of 0.8% (8/1000) as a base mc rate and it gets multiplied by buffs.

The retail ncsoft formula from the C4 leaked files yes. That formula only changed one time on Gracia Part 1 since C4. I don't see anyone free sharing this, as in order to get it in the first place you have to either spend a lot of money paying someone, or countless of hours if you're the developer yourself.

Thank you. We've been working a long time on both the source and the features. Our goal is to offer a high quality gameplay pvp wise and a lot of entertainment to both solo players and clans. I mean you answered the question right away. Some "server owners" with projects that don't do well are just sour and want to talk other projects down. It's how they cope with their anger and envy. I know, and that's great! We treat all our community the same. If you prefer playing on servers where only 2-3 chosen sides get paid just because they join and the rest get nothing, then just say that. Nearly every other server works like that. We are not the same. I understand the point you're trying to make, but it's ironic. All servers pay clans and streamers just to join. We don't do that. We don't need that. We don't buy clans. We offer a high quality project to the people who want to play the game and reward the winners. I see you're also making a project of your own, so no surprise there. Good luck.

The website was a pre-made template and the editing hasn't been thorough. But nit-picking pieces and putting them out of context is gasping at straws. Not all features mentioned in that box are "unique" but some of them are, and most of our unique features aren't included in that specific box. I'm not sure how such a technicality matters, though ? You are well known to try and bad-mouth projects on this forum as you are a project owner yourself. To answer your question (which you didn't really ask to have answered, but to passive-aggressively attack the project), the unique features of L2 Helios in that list are; 1. Geodata retail like on java code 2. Weekly sieges with real cash $ as reward 3. All classes are untouched from retail Interlude after a long research through all chronicles' patch notes 4. All interlude retail formulas that not even Vanganth, or AdvExt own due to their C4 / GF sources. 5. Magmeld Main Town 6. Party zone system with mage and fighter sides Unique features that are NOT listed in that box; 1. Goddess of Destruction items we've never seen on Interlude servers before (At least not a single semi-popular one) 2. Class specific SA upgrade for armors 3. Debuff resist upgrade on jewels 4. 2nd SA upgrade on weapons 5. C4/C5 based olympiad - 3 minute battles, A grade limit, Epics & Augs allowed - All classes viable. 6. At least 3 weekly premade updates that will be delivered on time and not made on the spot. 7. Clan points system that rewards the top clan with real cash $ weekly. 8. Manually handled 9v9 events during the live server with real cash $ as reward. Thank you for pointing out that technicality, I will let the website manager know what he has to update. Are you accusing a server that hasn't even started of corruption ? I was told not to use my real name for the project by multiple people in order to avoid comments of this nature, but I instantly shut them down as I value transparency and honesty the most. Everyone has friends and family. That doesn't mean everyone is corrupt. This applies to all projects. All admins, even those with a fake name, have friends and family. I have played with and against nearly everyone. It's up to people to think what they want. At the end of the day, the people who always find a scapegoat to blame their losses will be the same, and the people who actually want to play the game and find a project well attended will join it. People like this is mostly the reason why I had suggested that you massively increase the price of acis pack after the formulas re-work. Also a reason why I will never share the magic critical rate formula. If someone wants it, they can pay a developer/programmer 5 digits of usd to reverse engineer the l2server.exe from leaked files' source, or buy it from me at a reasonable price =]

Introducing our unique Clan Points system! This point system is used to determine the top clan of the week on L2 Helios and reward them with real cash $. How does it work ? Every week, clans can farm those points via our 10 special RBs, Epics, Castle siege & Heroes (Details for the point system can be found below). Every Monday at 02:00 AM GMT+2 the list will be refreshed and the clan with the most points will be the winner. This will trigger a new weekly cycle where all clans start from 0 points again for the new week. How are those points obtained exactly ? 1. When a clan member last hits one of our special RBs. 2. When a clan member last hits an Epic boss. 3. When a clan is victorious over a castle siege. 4. When a clan member claims his Hero status. How many points does each event provide ? Special RBs: 15 points per RB. Epics: Valakas: 1.000 points Antharas: 1.000 points Baium: 500 points Zaken: 250 points QA: 150 points Core: 100 points Orfen: 100 points Castles: Aden Castle: 1.000 points Rune Castle: 750 points Goddard Castle: 750 points Giran Castle: 500 points Heroes: 200 points per Hero.

You literally made a false statement and I debunked it. You are the one coming in a server's topic just to complain about it while no1 really forced you to join, or asked you in the first place. It's quite hypocritical to call someone else "fragile". I've never understood why people think it's edgy or it makes their argument any better when they add our current year in it. 10 years ago people would argue "interlude in 2011 lol", yet here we are in 2021. If you're looking for a solo-players ONLY server, then you're on the wrong topic and chronicle. Try L2 Essence which is made for solo players in a fully casual environment focused on PVE. On Helios, we are looking to create a very competitive environment while accommodating as many nostalgic casual solo players as we can. No point to argue further. Have fun.

I'm not sure why you'd say that, but I can assume you run the mindset of a 2005 player who thinks raid bosses can only be farmed by full parties or clans and completely ignores the trade market, or alternative ways to obtain items. All the gear can be farmed in solo zones with the only exception being helios weapons that require raid tokens which only drop from RBs. We have 10 RBs that respawn every 4 hours. That means 60 RBs in 24 hours. Solo players can solo the RBs with titans, or smaller groups can contest them on non-prime time. Then there's the market. You can easily exchange farm items for raid tokens or an OE S grade weapon for a +0 helios weapon. You can always donate for it if you don't want to farm or bother with trades. Items obtained through donations will be balanced based on the server's current stage. To sum up, solo players can farm: 1. All gear up to S grades 2. Enchants to OE their gear 3. Helios armors 4. SA for helios armors 5. Bonus SA for helios weapons 6. Bonus SA for tateossian jewels. Solo players can still farm RBs for helios weapons on non-prime time, but they have at least 3 other alternatives to get their hands on those. I hope this answers your question, and hopefully next time you have some doubts on how something can work, feel free to report it and mention what your exact issue is, instead of resorting to attacks.

We are in the process of migrating to a new web hosting with a new website design and the addition of a forum. Our website is expected to be back online by midnight according to the company.

Alright, no problem.

Hello. Our OBT server is currently online. Is the topic going to be moved now to private servers, or when the server is on live phase ?

Our new banner is ready! Our ads have entered phase 1 (soft advertising). In 1 week, our ad campaign will enter phase 2. We are 2 weeks away from our -OPEN- Beta phase! Get ready to test our unique Advanced Interlude files! The only server with this pack.

This is the best one so far. I would highly appreciate it if you managed to make one with Valakas and his lava-fire theme from his lair in the background

Depends on what rev you are going to use. aCis implemented a lot of the retail formulas (that I personally supplied them with) that are critical for PVP around rev 398 or 399 or so. If you plan on buying the latest acis rev (402 currently) then no doubt, it's the best choice. Not only it's the closest pack to retail gameplay and bug-free mostly, but they are also frequently updating their pack. The other option is using free revs from any l2j packs. In this case, I don't know which one is worse.

The original links don't exist anymore for either of those 2 maps. Could anyone re-upload them and post them here ? Thanks in advance. Original posts: Ancient city of arcan: Ertheia Island: [Interlude version]

A few similarities yes. The most iconic feature from ES will be the class specific armor upgrades (assassin, ranger etc). Basically armor special abilities.
