Non-instant pvp (lots of farming):

Not really,farming is needed.But u need to balance things,in order a little farming gives u basic items for pvps,and long farming gives u top items ,but not so OP(px 1 play killing 2-3 togethers)

By this i mean,much much farm will give u a nice boost,but not so OP

 

Non stop adena farming for equips:Adena is the best currency,than all.If u know how to handle it

anyway,for me getting the best equips must be with long farm,and easy farm for basic ones.By best equips,i would mean a custom one,not OP,for reason i mentioned above

definitely noone likes farming all day for basic equipment

 

Hard enchant rate:

Definitely,Hard enchant rate > Big enchant max

 

hell yeah,someone will have +7/8 weapon,u can kill him with a +4/5 if u are experienced

but the best is falling enchant rates(less ER at more ++)

 

1 dominat OP class (example = dagger):

This is a fail example.Yeah,some ppl may quit cause of archers OP,mages OP,but no daggers,lol(except they are really OP)

We all know daggers are totally useless in mass pvps,and pwners in solo pvp.It's stupid seeing some noob gm's boosting archers and nerfing archers,just for solo pvps.You have to think mass pvps,mostly

 

All harder for them than it was for older players:

Definitely,this is a reason for emoquit.

It's better making easier for new players(px a hard farm item,that used to need 20 hours of farm(px) ) after 1-2 months can go to 5-6 hours of farming,and putting a new farm item

If u get what i mean

This mistake is criminal

 

I hope i answered ur questions :P

i will explain all:

 

1st - Non-instant pvp means... having to farm from 0 - 85 in main class, than level all 3 subclasses, do certification and waste the whole day to build a  basic character and than weeks to get equips to be able to pvp older players... weeks of solo-ing farming to be able to pvp .otherwise you will die over and over...it evolves certifications, skill enchanting and getting books to have same skill levels as older players, a chance to go to an epic boss and obtain an epic jewel, than try enchant that jewel..it may take months... better play low rate instead so everyone is at same level???

 

2nd - adena farming for equips evolves farming for hours to do some enchanting in the front of npc, fail all and go back to repeat to do everything again over and over and over... it sucks doesnt? some people dont have time to do that, ore are tired of that... its just isnt fun

 

3rd - Hard enchanting rate means break all the itens with the adena you farmed over hours (or minutes) to make crystals and do it all over again and again and repeat...it doesnt matter if adena rate is x5000 but enchants are said to be 66% but are actually 33%... youre going to waste lots of time in the front of npc and farming zone to have the same low enchanted equips you had before...or worse...

 

4th - dominant class is the majority of the players makes when they see they can obtain easy pvps...yes dagger suck in self buffed pvp, but they can ruin the pvp for huge HP characters when they come from behind and give a 10/10 lethal attack to take down whole hp....also clans tends to make group of daggers to attack enemy bishops and kill them in 1-2 hits

 

same goes to archer that kills in 2-3 criticals...if the new player dont like to use these classes and prefer a mage or tank, and will be pwned without any chance to defense, he will leave

 

5th some servers made stupid decisions in the beginning like flood it with blessed enchant scrolls with high % of success than they see the mistake and remove it all and drop enchant rates by the point its impossible for the new players to make +++ gear compared to the one older players got...

I choosed hard enchant rates, since it's the most hated part of lineage, overall enchanting.

 

You can do something against the rest, but not againstenchant rates..

You just fail and fail.. farm again and fail again, it's very fustrating. Op classes have counters too, believe me, they have. Farm is ok, since you can bot your half life out(we are on MxC, hello?).

I used to like low populated servers, it lacked pvp a bit, but the gm made it intresting to stay.

I think that the worst part in lineage is farming,not so much xping rather than farming...farming needs endless hours in front of a PC just to acquire some decent gear and then,even if u succeed in buying kick-ass gear, you'll see that some1 has spent even more hours than u farming and has even better items than u...so for me what would repell me from staying in one server is endless farming

 

About the dominant classes(I'm mentiong it cause most of the voters chose that) I dont think that they are so bad(compared to the others at least)...I mean, if u really like a server then u'll stay even if u have to create one "dominant class" char(e.g. dagger)...that's what I would do anyway...

That was my point above

in a high max enchant server , you will exactly this thing

while in a hard enchant,even big farm many times can't be OP

Non-instant pvp (lots of farming): No PvPs only farming and the result is No Interesting server. And Mucho PPL Leaves.

The Farming Never Stop And They want much items to farming.

This is Sucks.

star wars objects in l2 makes them leave

So u would probably never play on a high-rate server(since almost all of them use the so-called "star wars" glow ) ?

Full details with road map, patch notes we will announce a bit latter If this is your first time on Dex and you haven’t played on our seasonal servers before, the information below will help you understand what our project is about and its key features. Dex veterans can skip the following section and go straight to the “What’s New in the New Season” part. Why Choose Dex?

This makes Dex the only server with real players (not phantoms) with such a setup and longevity. Always Fresh, Always Engaging - Every Seasonal server comes with a clear roadmap of changes and updates. At the end of the season, the server merges with Union, so your effort is never wasted. New players can start fresh together with everyone else on the new season. Before the merge, we run exclusive boosted events for about a month, giving seasonal players a massive head start. (Union players don’t get these events) Endless Endgame Content - High-end activities, unique PvP events, and continuous new features will keep you engaged long-term. We’re always working to improve and deliver fresh, fun content for our community. All your progress, items, and characters are safe - when the season ends, you continue on Union. Main features Modern Classic client (less lags, smoother gameplay, a lot of useful interface features). Anti-bot protection - we use our own system in combine with popular solutions like AAC, so in the end our project have one of the best anti-bot shield exists. Buff book to buff yourself or your summon/pet. With regular buff book you can create only 1 buff profile, if you need more - get the modern buff book and create up to 10 profiles! 36 buff slots - 24 regular buffs, and addictiona 12 slots for Dance/Song Daily rewards - login to the game every day and get rewards. Expanded subclass slots - you can have 5 subclasses from the beginning and expand up to 10. Class/Gender change - you can change your main class and gender if you want. Masterwork items (can be obtained by crafting or farming RBs, have better bonuses than regular items). Item Broker Auctions in towns can sell some epic jewelry and other useful goods for adena (3 times per week). Giran Harbor Fair - daily event which allows you to get rare items for adena. Talents - special tree with passive skills which will help you to tune your class better. Events like TvT and new event WarHunt Epic Replica system. Episodes - we open new content step by step to keep you engaged, bring more fun and extend the game.

Reworked locations: Mithril Mines and Plunderouse Plains Hellbound Island Isle of Preyer, with new content, new Dynasty gear PvP item improvement allows you to improve your items with additional bonuses. Charms can be equipped in one of the special slots that open when wearing a bracelet. Each type of charm grants the wearer certain bonuses New Epic Bosses - Freya, Beleth, Tiat, Trasken Cyclic macros (macros restarts when finishes) What’s New in the Upcoming Season? Below is a brief overview of the main changes coming in the new season, along with short explanations. More detailed information about each feature will be published later, most likely in our wiki. Divisions We plan to test a Division system on Dex, initially only for low-tier epic bosses (AQ, Core, Orfen, Zaken). At the same time as the main Epic Boss respawn, an additional instance version of the boss will appear. Clans from the big war will not be able to enter this instance. The drop table is identical to the main boss, but the Epic Jewelry have not a 100% drop chance. Mithril Mines /data/attachments/4/4662-e7b9c5989ccf81d0b2d48e88b7aa9bc7.jpg A reworked location that will open on the first Monday after S-grade becomes available. In this zone you will be able to: Obtain alternative recipes for S-grade equipment Get your first Charms and upgrade them up to Level 3 Obtain bracelets with 2 Charm slots Farm Void Neolithics (used for upgrade any item to Masterwork, but lose enchant level) 2 New Raid Bosses with valuable drop Fight the Raid Boss Trasken Plunderous Plains /data/attachments/4/4661-2ecd2d0a4702d31c1ba26d4b7e369285.jpg Another reworked location, which will open one week after Mithril Mines. This zone provides: GCM drops LS drop More different Charms 2 New Raid Bosses with valuable drop 3-slot Charm bracelet The ability to make PvP versions of equipment Isle of Prayer A location where players will be able to obtain a new type of equipment - Dynasty. This area will also provide: More different Charms 4-slot Charm bracelet Upgrade charms to level 4 Hellbound Hellbound is now an endgame location. Almost everything can be farmed there, and the drop quality is very high. However, the location will only be available during weeks without Olympiad battles. This means it will be open for one week and closed for the next. This area will also provide: 5-6 slot Charm bracelet bracelet engravement ancient scrolls Best drop GCM Best drop LS More different charms Upgrade charms to level 5 Talents An additional talent tree has been added: the PvE branch. The PvE talent tree has its own limits and does not overlap with the standard tree. Olympiad The Olympiad will now run 5 days per week, from Wednesday to Sunday. Each day you will have a limit on the number of battles you can participate in. War Hunt Event A new event. Players who previously played on Skadi may already be familiar with it. The idea is simple: You enter a PvP zone Killing monsters grants points These points can be exchanged for rewards Killing other players allows you to steal their points PvE / PvP Layers The locations Mithril Mines, Plunderous Plains, IOP and Hellbound will have two separate layers. The drop on both versions are identical. Open World Version: Full PvP zone Instance Version: No PvP zone, works like the regular world with standard war/flag/PK rules Players who enjoy PvP can defend their farming spots and gain extra advantage, while players who prefer a safer farming experience can use the instance version, though with more competition and higher population. As you can see, this season brings quite a lot of changes However, these are mostly content-related additions - the core spirit and classic gameplay of the season remain unchanged. Please note that this is a pre-announcement, and some details may still change before the Beta Test begins. A full roadmap and patch notes will be published later. https://forum.lineage2dex.com/threads/16738/#lg=post-72311&slide=0  
    • Automatic Streamer Rewards System (Twitch / Kick / TikTok) Hey everyone, I’ve developed a Streamer Rewards system for Lineage 2 servers that automatically rewards players who stream the server. The system works fully automatic: Detects if the streamer is currently live Checks if the stream title contains the server name If everything matches, the system sends a custom reward coin to the streamer’s character Rewards are given every 30 minutes while streaming Supported platforms Twitch Kick TikTok Live Configurable options Reward Item ID Reward interval time Server name keyword detection Character name linked to the streamer This makes it easy to encourage players to promote the server without manual work from admins. Example flow: Player goes live on Twitch/Kick/TikTok Stream title includes the server name System detects the stream automatically Every 30 minutes the player receives a reward coin in-game Setup I can also help set up and integrate the system with your server. Works with custom coin rewards Can be configured for different intervals Additional help with installation and configuration available If you're interested or want more details, feel free to send me a PM. I also have a ticket ping system, if new ticket created on the website you can make it send you a ping on discord server for selected roles (support and stuff) but this one is basic and most likely not needed, my discord: zujarka
