Dyes and Symbols

 

Certain items in Lineage II can change the basic ability values (STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIT, MEN) of your character.

 

Ability/Effect

STR

  • etc_str_hena_i01.pngIncreases amount of physical damage.

DEX

  • etc_dex_hena_i01.pngIncreases attack speed, physical skill speed, accuracy, evasion, critical hit probability, success rate of dagger skills (such as Deadly Blow), shield defense success rate, and movement speed.

CON

  • etc_con_hena_i01.pngIncreases maximum HP and CP, HP recovery speed, weight limit, underwater breath gauge, shock resistance, and bleeding resistance.

INT

  • etc_int_hena_i01.pngIncreases damage of magic attacks and success rate of curse spells.

WIT

  • etc_wit_hena_i01.pngIncreases chance of magic critical hits, casting speed, resistance to Hold, resistance to curses (such as HP degeneration, decreased HP recovery rate, increased skill re-use time, and decreased effect of heals).

MEN

  • etc_men_hena_i01.pngIncreases magic defense, maximum MP, MP recovery speed, poison resistance, and curse resistance. Decreases probability of magic interruption.
    To change these ability values, a symbol can be created through the Symbol Maker.

 

Dyes

Dyes are items that serve as ingredients for carving symbols (also referred to as tattoos). The dyes have + or - values for the basic ability values. There are ordinary dyes and high-quality dyes. Ordinary dyes can be used as ingredients for carving symbols after the first class transfer, but not after completing the second. Greater Dyes can be used only by players who have completed the second class transfer.

 

Symbol Engraving

Characters of level 20 or above have slots where they can use dyes in the inventory window to engrave symbols. Characters that haven't yet completed their first class transfer cannot use symbols. After completing the first class transfer, they can carve two symbols. After the second class transfer, they can carve one more symbol, for a total of three. Also, the symbols that were affixed before the second class transfer lose their effect when the character completes the second class transfer.

If players have enough quantity of dyes and want to engrave a symbol, they must speak to a Symbol Maker NPC. Symbol Makers charge a fixed fee to carve the symbol for the player. Carving a symbol consumes the dye used as an ingredient.

The amount that can be increased from symbols for a single basic ability value cannot be more than +5. For example, if two symbols cause STR to increase by +3 and +4 respectively, the total increase of STR cannot exceed +5. There is no limit to the reduction in values, but it is not possible to reduce an ability value all the way to zero.

Some limitations apply to certain symbol types, as shown in the table below.

 

Symbol Combination can Be Used By

STR, CON, and DEX

All classes

Human Wizard, Sorcerer, Necromancer, Warlock, Elven Wizard, Spellsinger, Elemental Summoner, Dark Wizard, Spellhowler, Phantom Summoner

Symbol Removal

  • To remove a symbol, the player must speak to the Symbol Maker. Removal of a symbol costs a certain fee, and once removed, half of the dye used for carving the respective symbol is returned to the inventory.

The funny thing is that Tattoos are just imaginary things implemented in Java and few OFF servers and i do not know why is this information posted in this document. I also want to say that Tattoos on Java servers and their stats can be changed anytime so this information sometimes may be wrong.

    • I have a highly customized Hi5 pack based on L2JMobius with a lot of features for performance and modern game design. Disclaimer: I do not run any public server, but I run a "private" server for a group of 10 friends and about 2000 AI bots that required me to do heavy modifications on core systems of the game.  So my opinion will obivously be biased towards L2JMobius.   What I can tell you though without bias is: Most of the features you are asking for are nowadays considered de-facto, don't pay money for them. TvT, offline mode, community boards, premiums, vote rewards are in most packs including the open source ones. So before you pay a thousand plus euro for a pack ask yourself what you are paying that money for, that open source packs don't have.   Also a lot of the "strong points" some old packs were made for are nowadays obsolete. L2JFree derived packs for example used to have a lot of GC optimizations (Trove library) which are not not maintained, but most importantly not needed cause Java has evolved a lot since then and the performance issues these tricks tried to solve back then, are currently solved by Java's JVM itself. So if someone tries to sell you packed / unpacked integers in special hashmap data structures and other such things know that they have really lost their value nowadays.    A lot of people are selling thin air, things that everyone has. "Quality geodata" being one of them. I mean what's "quality geodata" ? Has someone painted them by hand ? Hell there's an online tool for free in github that extracts quality geodata, I think Galagard made it ? In contrast I'll tell you without wanting to boast about it that I use 3D navmesh on my project because 2000 bots could not pathfind large distances on A* on geodata. As far as I know, L2JMobius has it in its subscription version too. So if I could do an acceptable transition to navmesh from geodata in a week alone, I would assume that a decent pack with dedicated developers could do it better and faster. Red flag if someone still tries to sell you geodata in 2026.   Multi-protocol support gives small value and is a high risk.   I would not go for multi-protocol support for a public server cause you are locking yourself to specific providers and the functionality they support. If you need to change (eg pricing issues), you will be locked to a handful of providers. And what are you really gaining from a new client on an old game version ? Better UI ? The engine is still the same, static targeting and menus.    Agentic AI will make old hard features easy to implement, and drop their money value. Pay for AI-proof value. And compared to what most insecure devs claim, its a very powerful tool that allows those who know how to use it to accelerate their development. So a lot of features that took in the past a lot of time and effort to be developed and were a reason to charge money, are becoming a commodity today. So think to: The thing I am paying money for right now, how easy will it be to implement in a year from now ? If for example you are paying money for a game launcher that Claude Code can generate in top 1 hour without issues, I think you are wasting money.    I want to emphasise this a lot. Software engineering is in a transition atm. Most things that were mediocre to implement, launchers, guards, CMS, are nowadays easy. Yet the dev community continues to market them as premium content. They are not, sooner or later, when everyone starts selling them, they will realize that they will have to offer value in more complex features.  Private or public ? Bottom line is that a private pack and 1000 euro wont get you a sucessful server. You're the one that make it or break it. There have been many sucessful servers both in private packs and public packs in the past. It's really on the hands of the beholder, not on the source. A pack that plays good is a good indicator to buy as Trance said, but I would disagree that it's not enough. A server owner is not a player. He's a business man and has to account for longevity, vendor lock-in, expandability, hidden costs,  amortization, price changes and many more. Don't pick a pack based on how it played only.    
    • You don’t even need to look for a ghost project. Just buy the files from a project you’ve personally tested or played. That’s a much better starting point.

    • Hello everyone, I'm looking for a High Five Java server pack for a long-term project. I'm not looking for free packs. I'm interested in purchasing a professional pack with full source code if it's worth the investment. My priorities are: Stable core Clean and well-structured source code Good geodata and AI Modern Community Board Offline Trade / Offline Craft Premium Account system Vote Reward system Auto Events (TvT, CTF, DM, etc.) HWID protection Auto Farm  Buffer / QoL systems Modern admin tools Good Olympiad & Seven Signs implementation Excellent instance support (Freya, Frintezza, Zaken, Beleth, etc.) A huge bonus would be: Multi-protocol support (High Five + newer clients such as Salvation/Classical clients) Full source code (no closed binaries) Some custom things over Elegia At the moment I'm considering packs like Sunrise and L2-Scripts, but I'd really like to hear opinions from people who have actually worked with them. If you've been running a serious High Five project, I'd appreciate your honest feedback: Which pack are you using? What are its strengths and weaknesses? Would you buy it again? Are there any better alternatives available today? I'm looking for real experience rather than advertisements. Thanks!
