Luna is being re-opened with a new and fresh concept. :P

Beta is running now. The server can be accessed with this patch: http://www.lineage2dreams.com/Luna.Test.Server.1.1.Patch - Lineage 2 Dreams is opening it's famous Luna server back up again. It is now better than ever. Crafted by the hands of the same dude that brought you Paradise ages ago, and Dreams along Luna at a later time. Ladies and gentleman - we present you Luna, in all its splendor. _______________________________________________________ Dynamic Experience Rates Gone are the days of rushing through low levels and having a hard time progressing on the later ones. The multiplier applied to the earned experience is now dynamic and depends on your level. For the first few levels the multiplier is non-existent, it grows as you level up and will reach up to 25x. Improved Economy System In the past on Luna, nothing other than the end-game gears and the materials required for those was precious. Everything starting from No-Grade to S84 was available for purchase directly from the stores, for a cheap price. No more. Weapon and Armors stores do no longer sell uncommon D/C/B/A/S gears. They've been replaced by the common versions. Common gears can be acquired for Wind, Water and Fire Mantras - which, remain exclusively obtainable from our low, medium, and high levels hunting grounds. Uncommon versions of these gears will now be obtainable exclusively through crafting, opening plenty of room for diversity in your adventure. Improved Hunting Grounds On Luna, certain hunting grounds have been made more rewarding than others. The low, medium, and high level hunting grounds (found at any Gatekeeper) will not only reward you with Stems, Varnishes, Silver Nuggets and co, but also with Wind, Water, and Fire Mantras. Collect these mantras to purchase Common Weapons, Common Armors, Common Jewelry, Special Abilities, Tattoos, Dyes, regular Enchant Scrolls and more from the stores in towns and villages. The following Hunting Grounds are recommended to low level characters, between 1 and 40: - School of Dark Arts (Lv. 1 to 10) - Elven Ruins (Lv. 10+) - Windmill Hill (Lv. 15+) - Abandoned Camp (Lv. 20+) - Execution Grounds (Lv. 25+) - Breka's Stronghold (Lv. 30+) - Death Pass (Lv. 30+) - Bee Hive (Lv. 35+) - Sea of Spores (Lv. 40+) - Hunters Valley (Lv. 40+) - Timak Outpost (Lv. 40+) For the medium-level characters, between 40 and 70, the following Hunting Grounds are recommended: - Enchanted Valley (Lv. 45+) - The Cemetary (Lv. 50+) - Fields of Massacre (Lv. 55+) - Forsaken Plains (Lv. 55+) - Forbidden Gateway (Lv. 60+) - Valley of Saints (Lv. 60+) - Forest of the Dead (Lv. 65+) - Blazing Swamp (Lv. 65+) - Archaic Laboratory (Lv. 70+) - Pavel Ruins (Lv. 70+) And finally, for the high level characters, the following Hunting Grounds are recommended: - Hot Spring (Lv. 75+) - Varka Silenos (Lv. 75+) - Ketra Orc Outpost (Lv. 75+) - The Monastery (Lv. 80+) - Lizardmen Plains (Lv. 85+) - Sel Mahum Grounds (Lv. 85+) - Beast Farm (Lv. 85+) - Dragon Valley (Lv. 85+) Good to know The raid bosses spawning within the Improved Hunting Grounds are globally announced. They drop key materials (all of them, including the lowbie ones) required to acquire S80 and S84 Gears. If you've become too high level for a raid boss but would like to take it down, or if you're simply looking for the damn Recipe - Homunkulus Sword but the Vanor Silenos Shaman is way too low level to drop anything... There's no issue! Gatekeepers can help you jump back to a level you've already been - temporarily! Mini Games Looking for something fun to do? Look no more. Lorain, our Mini Games Manager, ensures you're always having fun - with her mini games. Some of which will remind you of the good old Quake 3 Arena days, while others will taste a bit more like the Unreal Tournament. Randomized mods, maps, grades and level restrictions, buffs and rules - our events are always fun, refreshing and rewarding! __________________________________ Improved Karma System Did you just kill a dwarfie? Without her even attempting to fight back? You will pay for it. Sooner or later. When dying or teleporting to the nearest location while in a Chaotic state, no matter the character's actual position - he will be sent back to Floran Village. From this point, using teleportation through teleport scrolls or other means becomes impossible till interacting with Clarissa, the Gatekeeper in Dion. We wish you a happy run, full of surprises! Good to know Warehouses are available in Floran Village should you have certain items you do not want to risk to drop. However, each item deposit costs a certain percentage of your total adena. Temporary Deleveling Did a raid boss much lower level than you just re-spawn? Or maybe an ugly orc shaman is annoying you, but he's too low level for you to kick his behind? No issue! Gatekeepers can help you jump back to a level you've already been - temporarily! Whenever you're done doing whatever you wanted to do on that level, you can jump back to your original level. Newbie Protection Because there's absolutely nothing fun in a high level character going on rampage against newbies. A protection is here to ensure nobody feels like going on a newbie rampage. Should you kill a character that is 9 levels (or more) below yours, you'll be sent to Floran Village right away. Good to know You'll be warned if a character is 9 levels (or more) below yours when targeting him. Instead of attempting to kill newbies with your high level and your high grade gears, you can always kill newbies on their level - using the help of Gatekeepers to get on a temporary level! Improved Subclasses System On Luna, there's no limit as to how many subclasses a character can have. And subclasses maximum level matches the maximum level of the main class - 85. Notable changes from Luna as we know it... - For the first time in our entire existence, we're bringing you these fancy features you'd expect from a low rate along the fancy features you'd expect in a high rate - on a single world - in perfect harmony! - Blessed Enchant Scrolls were taken out of the Luxury Shop and will now be obtainable through various other means. - Blessed Scrolls of Escape (including the Clan Hall and Castle ones) were taken out of stores and will now be obtainable through other means. - Ancient equipment has been taken out of the game. - Elegia, Moirai, and Vorpal (you know, these lame copies of Dynasty and Vesper...) have been taken out of the game. - The loots that were previously taken out of the game (materials, recipes, rare drops such as crafted items... etc) are now back in. This list is in no way exhaustive. We'll continue adding information as what has been done comes back up on our heads and as we continue making changes. Which version is it going to be? The client you'll need to connect to Luna will be the last revision we were given prior Dwarven Village was destroyed - known as High Five. However, do not expect Luna to be anything looking like your casual High Five server. That's not the case. Luna is different. Many settings were altered, many changes were not followed or made differently. Using the High Five client gives us the freedom to pick which of the updates officially released we really want in. Which is why we use that revision. But Luna is not an High Five server. Luna is how we believe Lineage II should be. There is much more information and features to be posted. Stay up to date on our WEBSITE or come meet fellow players on our FORUM Alternatively, every vote helps to SUPPORT US and raise awareness. __________ Beta is running now. The server can be accessed with this patch: http://www.lineage2dreams.com/Luna.Test.Server.1.1.Patch

It does matter, duh. Very much so. But I wouldn't expect you to understand.

Nice website you have there... I wonder who made it (wonder). Fucking idiots

Thanks!

Remember, the more active we are, the more likely it is we will get new and exclusive information from NCSOFT.

Feel free to register and join the community.

Unfortunately, NCSOFT KR won't attend this years G-Star convention. :(

Oh hey guys, little update. My current project is under NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) so I can't really stream or show this anyone. When I'm done with it, I'll try and either record a video or stream one of a new project. Hope you guys still interested? Anyone else? What method (stream, teamviewer, youtube video etc) would be the best for you?

Really good one! I love the colors (I'm a sucker for green vibrant lime colors I admit). The background and render depth look really sweet. However, I think the size of that signature is way too big. For me at least, I would reduce it down a little. And the text size, in proportion with the big size of the signature itself, looks really tiny if you compare it. So I would maybe try to make it a bit bigger.

Any of the more default ones, like arial, verdana, tahoma or fonts like raavi, helvetica maybe. Can try some different looking ones that are still easily readable though like georgia maybe, there's so much more. Just think of readability because that is -obviously- a very important aspect. And fonts ie text shouldn't look out of place which admittedly, yours does, at least to me.

The banner as such looks "okay". Now, if we look at the text... you did everything wrong that you could do wrong. 1) The font, totally wrong, use something that is easier to read. 2) Wrong layer effects 2.1) Wrong Bevel & Emboss - don't use it if you don't know how. Using the default values makes texts look horrible. 2.2) I wouldn't use Outer Glow on my texts, specially not if the color contrast is this harsh. White font with a full red color as Outer Glow is a no-no imo. So yeah, that's pretty much it. I like that you tried to use some kind of pattern to give the background more texture. Could have maybe added a simple little border on the banner, I like doing that at least.

Taking on new clients for custom-made designs again, beginning november
