Glad to hear it, you guys are welcome!

 

As for the quests - I know. But it's kinda on purpose.

 

This isn't our first server and we have a quite competitive community - in Gracia Final, it's extremely normal to see mage parties waaay ahead of the rest of the server at launch, both on level and gear.

 

With this setup (quests being slow, but raids having x7 drop rate), warrior parties are way more viable, since they will have a competitive option for gearing up.

 

Well the solution would be reducing the quest rates for only certain quests that meddle with the gameplay, and leaving the high drop/reward rate for the less important ones... It's a pity to butcher all the quests just because of few that are problematic

Yes, I kinda agree with you, although we have our reasons. One would be - sadly, if you're familiar with L2OFF, there isn't an "easy way" for one to change the quest rates without breaking a lot of side stuff. I mean, it can be done, but it's actually the other way around - you would only touch the quests that you want to touch. But we have done it before, the thing is - it was a conscious decision not to do it this time around.

 

Speaking from experience now, and because I think it's an interesting topic to talk about, we have tried different variations of this setup over the years. Last year for example, we increased the quest rates for every "important" quest on Gracia Final, including Varka/Ketra for S Armors, FoG, IT, etc for S weapons, and so on. And while our players were happy at first, the differences between classes that are unbalanced on this chronicle became even bigger than before.

 

So we take into account our community as well, that happens to be very competitive in nature - consisting on several big groups of players who always try to take the most efficient route possible in order to win (and that was before we started giving prizes in USD!). So, everyone knows mage parties are extremely efficient in Gracia Final's early game, and having quests that boost their ability to quickly farm S-Grade weapon recipes, only helped their case. Basically if you were doing a warrior setup, you were dead on arrival, or your utility would only be reduced to having doombringers in order to support your side's mages.

 

Any other quests are basically worthless in Gracia Final and touching them would be kinda pointless. Also, since we like the competitive nature of our community, and the fact that the chronicle creates a bottleneck towards the midgame, our players are kinda forced to run into each other and engage in the open world - and compete for the leveling spot.

 

So our decision ends up being more like a "don't touch what's not broken", because players who seek a Gracia Final server actually want all of that, instead of a spoon-fed gearing system through instances and quests like High Five and so on. So at the end of the day, we decided to increase the drop rate for raids to x7 - incentivizing warrior setups and further giving people more reason to fight each other in the field :)

I don't understand. Are you just guessing things? Because you are failing horribly at doing so.

 

- In almost 4 years we have had 0 bot problems. We actually have a good protection system that takes care of most of them - the rest are hunted and banned by me personally.

- No clans receive any kind of benefits, or coins, or runes, or anything. No matter if they are big or small.

- As I said before (but I doubt you are actually reading any of my posts since you are just randomly hating on us), you don't need to donate in order to get anything from the shop. You can just get everything for adena if you want.

    • A question: I’ve had two servers that were downgraded from C6 to C4, and both would lag for players when they changed subclass, and almost every time the L2 server would crash. They say it’s a problem with the C5 skills that were added. Has anyone experienced this issue? The server would run fine without errors until people started changing classes. Has anyone gone through this and knows the solution to the problem?
    • L2jBayev Chronicle 3: Rise of Darkness – AiEngine Edition In short: this is a C3 build with a full-fledged AI engine, live mercenaries, a built-in quiz, a “personal account” in the Community Board, and server logic neatly distributed across thread pools. The project is about a living world without lags : bots farm, communicate, gather parties, teleport along routes, and the server remains cold and stable.   What's inside (the most delicious) 1) Full-fledged AI engine for characters Behavior types: farming ( FarmAI ), combat ( CombatAI ), party logic ( PartyAI ), trading/walking ( TraderAI / WalkerAI ), support roles (healer, etc.). Class profiles: for mages/archers/daggers, etc., “smart” skill rotations, distance control, sleep/save skills, healing, loot pickup, etc. are implemented (see examples of classes like SpellSingerAI , NecromancerAI , etc.). Self-healing and teleports: when dying, the bot goes through a sequence of steps without sleep()- via AITaskSequence + AITeleportToLocTask , searches for the nearest gatekeeper and teleports via TeleportationManager with routes depending on the level. Auto-support: auto-nipples, arrows/bones, smart auto-proceduring of buffs and auto-banks CP/HP/MP with thresholds - all sewn into the auxiliary EtcPlayersAi . Chat context: ChatManagerAi processes mentions, makes responses with delays (anti-flood), supports party chat and “human” reaction. Understanding: ChatManagerAi system  processes the dialogue, bots remember your aggression and insults, they start to respond less often to modern users, stop accepting or inviting to a group (party) and when it goes beyond the peak they will simply merge you, and every time they see you on the PC, there is an opportunity to measure more often, communicate respectfully and beautifully, in general, a “human” reaction. Why a player/admin needs this: bots actually “live”, farm and interact, and don’t just stand on macros. This is a great background for online and PvE action.   2) Mercenaries (Mercenary system) Full-fledged companion character : L2MercenaryInstance with its own MercenaryAI (movement, attack, support, consumables, shots). Behavior modes: DEFENDER / SUPPORT / PASSIVE - switchable to suit your playing style. Progress and trust: the mercenary's trust/exp/level grows , skills are learned according to the MercenarySkillTree (conditions are based on the trust or level of the owner). Templates and equipment: via MercenaryTemplateTable and spawner - model/weapon/type are selected. Social: MercenarySpeechManager - a set of speeches; the mercenary "comes to life" in the chat. Premium Link: Premium account owners give the mercenary additional trust (faster progress). Why: This is not a dummy pet, but a playful companion with modes, training and “character”.   3) Quiz (event viktorina ) Rounds according to schedule: pre-launch with announcements (minutes/seconds before start), registration .reg, auto-opening of the window. Multiple choice questions: question + set of answer buttons; fair processing, timings, question change. Tops and history: results table, statistics, neat UI via HTML assembly. Flexible control: you can start immediately or set a delayed start (notification package 5/2/1 min, etc.). Why: regular activity for players, “social entertainment” module right in the build.   4) Personal account in Community Board KB managers: buff cabinet, teleports, clans/forums/mail/friends, tops (PK/PvP/wealth/players), character repair, viewing skill trees , etc. Premium logic: some services/mail are limited by premium; premium also affects the visual (nickname color) and bonuses (see effect on mercenary). Single sign-on: all in one place, no team chaos. Why: conveniently manage your character and services without going into the console or installing third-party mods.   Why is the system technically valuable? Minimum load and stability Separated thread pools: AI logic, hunting, teleports, chat - on separate onesScheduledExecutorService ( AI_THREAD_POOL , MONSTER_HUNT_POOL , TELEPORT_POOL , CHAT_POOL ). No "freezing": task sequencers (teleport/recovery) work through the scheduler, not Thread.sleep(). Bot limitation: protection against overload via thresholds/counters - “extra” bots do not start. One bot - one sequence: AITaskManager ensures that the character does not have parallel conflicting tasks. Smoothing out peaks: starting tasks with offsets so that there are no simultaneous “ticks” of hundreds of bots. Monitoring/logs: own loggers (separate files for info/errors/processes/chats), CPU load monitoring. Bottom line: the build is designed for “thick online” and mass activities without TPS failures .   Additional Features Auto-alliances for farming: party logic invites suitable players (checking level/equipment/clan flags), there are “human” responses to requests. Sub/class management: out of the box helpers for changing class/subclass, auto-learning of necessary skills and selection of equipment by level. Security/protection: secondary PIN/picture password support (used in KB/voiced commands; optional). Premium accounts: privileges in KB/mail/visual and synergy with mercenary progress. Ready-made services: tops, auctions/mail, teleports from KB, buff rooms, repairs, viewing skill trees, etc.   Who is this build for? Freeshare/project admins who want a living world “from the pack”: bots and mercenaries provide a constant background of activity. Players who value convenience: personal account, premium services, events and a mercenary companion. Developers who want a clean, predictable backend with thread pools and a neat task model without “magic”.   How it differs from standard assemblies Not macros - AI profiles with “brains”: rotations, positioning, healing, decision making. Not a decoration pet - a mercenary with his own modes, progress, skill tree and lines. Not a faceless gamemod - an event quiz with UI, schedule, tops. No chaos in flows - strict pools, planning and task managers designed for online and growth. No separate scripts - a single personal account in KB for most activities.   TL;DR (one paragraph for the project card) AiEngine C3 is a build with live AI, smart bots, mercenaries (modes/progress/skills), built-in quiz, premium logic and a convenient personal account in KB. Under the hood are distributed thread pools and task managers without sleep(), so even with a dense online the server remains stable and responsive.   Additionally add - there is still a lot of interesting things command .assassin or shift+target (order murder), shift+target for admins on AI characters for control, admin panel is completely rewritten, many additional functions, mercenaries change their appearance depending on trust, deepseek and chatGPT system is connected for communication of characters like real players, GPT - for newer java, there is still a very large list of fixes after the last versions, a lot has been fixed, including height coordinates (Z) geo-Squares, pathfinding, visibility through obstacles, fix pet summons, trade packages, shop packages, many effects, quests (including the original ones like nipples, etc.), Ai behavior of NPC and RB monsters, absolutely all epics have been transferred to AiLoader no longer in python scripts. Attention! The server is suitable for both classic mode and PvP format, as well as with various mods. Absolutely everything is configured in the configurations to suit your taste and purposes of use. It is recommended to launch the server through L2ServerControl (simplifies management and control of processes).
