Here is a quick rundown on the server features.

 

Rates

 

5x xp

 

5x sp

 

5x Adena

 

5x Drop (chance)

 

3x Quest item (chance)

 

5x Spoil (amount)

 

1x Epics

 

Miscellaneous

 

Epic spawn times windows are set to 4 hours. For ex. For example, Baium spawns every 5 days + 0 to 4 hours. This means he will spawn between 5 days and 5 days and 4 hours since he last died.

 

 

Server Software

 

We are going to use Azures C5 files. For those not familiar with Azure do a search for them on YouTube. We are the only ones to have the privilege of running these files since their last server (Celes) closed. These are complete C5 [OFF] files the only ones out there. The clan system needs to be completed but it is being worked on.

The client protection is Azures as well and is very good. Nobody ever managed to bot on Azures servers.

 

Server Hardware

 

The server is bought and paid for, there is no rentals here. I did this so I could afford to put the server on a real ddos protected network (not cheap). More about the ddos protection farther down.

 

Server Specs-

 

2x Dual Core AMD Opteron 2212s

 

2x SAS 15k RPM, 73GB HDDs

 

12 GB RAM, DDR2 667 MHZ

 

The server will hold 3k players with no lag.

 

Server Connection

 

The server is located in the USA and in the same datacenter that Azure was located at. Great routing and high quality bandwidth as many of you know from playing at Azure

 

 

 

DDOS Protection

 

The main reason many of the bigger servers are closing or being forcibly closed is ddos attacks. Unfortunately it is a reality of the L2 Private server community. Not many servers are investing in ddos protection and most of those that do are being tricked. Many datacenters offer ddos protection but it is false advertising. A Firebox, Cisco router, or software ddos protection may work against small non-flood type attacks, but they all fail against large flood attacks. Those attacks are what is being used to shutdown so many large servers.

 

I contacted over 100 Datacenters all over the world over the course of 2 weeks not too mention did a huge amount of research. **FACT** If the protection offered is not network wide and based off Arbor Peak Flow/Analysis and Top Layer technology...it is BS! We are hosted on one of these networks..shielded and fed clean traffic by the best ddos protection/mitigation in the world. Expensive? Yes...but if your going to do something do it well, right?

 

Clan Infos:

 

 

Hi, were an English speaking clan that uses vent and mirc.

If you'd like to apply and find out more details please visit www.kthxclan.com

 

All members must idle mIRC, speak English and use vent.

Although we have never created kthx on any L2 server before, we have 15 core members who have played together since NA open beta.

This is the first time we've met back up for a few years, and were looking for active mature members to help us on our way.

We do a clan craft system, all members must put all base mats, Key C (karmian/PL) Top B onwards in CWH.

It is somehow attractive just because you say you have 80+ members active.

Anyway x5 it's too low to start, so good luck with it.
