[ZaNteR]

I want to make a server without nonsense, just straight to the point stuff so we can have some fun with not much drama like the old days.

Same enchant on all items = magical attacks get shafted.

 

4 castles is a bit too steep. Tone it down to 2 for starters IMO. Perhaps put more emphasis on fortresses.

 

Don't see why you wouldn't add mastery codexs. It does fuck over some classes and make other stronger, but you said there won't be balance, you could also nerf some highly enchanted skills to suit.

 

1 hour event intervals does not equal "something to do". An hour is pretty long.

Why have a lvling area for fast lvling. Can't you just make starting level high? Like 78 or something. Decrease the rates to like 70x.

You put new players in low end game, there is more to work for rather than just armor and adena, lvls mean something, things are more localized but there is a feeling of difference.

 

No offence, but from what you posted, it seems just very typical. Very familiar. Details don't matter. You set it up so that the gameplay is similar to every other server - make char, level up (fast or slow, doesn't matter, you still level up), farm gear, occasional events if you happen to be online, siege once every 2 weeks for an empty castle, etc - everyone did this before, as players, everyone played this.

+10 is a pretty low enchant limit and if mages are weak there are other ways to boost them.

 

About Castles i though it would be nice since there wont be a lot of castle avaialble, each one of them to have a different feel (backround setting etc). But yes, maybe i will start with  2 and slowly go up to 4.

 

I never liked the fact the they added mastery codexes on l2, im trying to get players from all chronicles intrested.

 

About leveling, i have disabled the vitality system that means the server has real x500 rates.

I could make the events with lower intervals but i think 1hour is a pretty optimal one.

 

I said theres not going to be 100% balance like other servers claim. However i will try to balance a few things out from my own experience.

 

I havent told everything about the server on this post just the very basic features (for obvious reasons). I have very unique stuff in the works. When everything is ready for BETA testing then i will reveal all the features.

 

P.S: Fist post updated: Added some info about skills.

I did some research and players seem to be tired of the classic high rate pvp server approach so i decided to try and make something completely different. I will post more details of the new concept once i finish writting down my ideas.

[sandpants]

You don't think they've been tired for ... some time now?

 

But looking forward to your ideas.

If you guys have any suggestions feel free to drop by the forum and write them down.

[carlosalexandre]

i did some suggestion on forum ;) try add some achievements system also thats is rlly cool like kill 10 players one bonus and so on like every pvp or "heals" you get some points and wiht that you can unlock bonus like recall all your party ".partyrecall", "hunter eye" being able to see all RB's  , some +3% on stats , try add a dominating zone the clan who rule it get +5% stat for example 1 hour later they must defend it something like this are rlly cool

[tambur]

so in hi5 you nerf mages /daggers but not tanks  . nice move.. gl beating sk  or any tank

[ZaNteR]

The problem with tanks is when they wear Elegia wich gives them the crazy crit dmg boost of 127. On my server i plan on using Vesper as my top Armor.

[sandpants]

It's crit rate.

 

[ZaNteR]

It's crit rate.

 

Doesnt really matter, its proven that this is what makes Tanks OP.

[sandpants]

Tanks are OP without it. Just generally. TK may not kill you, but you will never kill one.

 

The rest will smash you Elegia or not. 2 Flame icons, 3 cancels with great damage, crazy crit dmg from SKs with their epic vamp.

 

Dunno who proved to you that Elegia is what makes tanks OP.

Not adding it though screws a bunch of other classes who could make better use of elegia than tanks.

[Cr4wd]

Personally, i love the "max armor vesper"

plus, the max armor should be Dinasty... Dinasty is the most balanced armor

[sandpants]

"max armor" was a dumb idea for L2.

 

everything below Elegia should have it's pdef increased to match so that there were more variety.

But NCSoft makes all grind opportunities come true.
