hello guy's
can you please help me to pick the best rases in lineage2 i like to make a new character..

thanx! for the advice you give me and sorry for my english....

All races have advantages and disadvantages,its all about personal taste and play style

So there is no best race, choose the one you like

You're not helping him.

If you're new to this game, you might wanna try tanks instead of archers/daggers. They're easy to raise (parties, rb parties) and they are very resistant. But... If you play on low rate always make a dwarf. (scavenger) You make money that way.
It's like this. At lvl 78/80:

You want extreme damage, get a ghost hunter (dark elf dagger), or get wind rider (elf dagger) or even adventurer (human dagger). The human dagger is balanced overall he has high hp, but on lvl 78 he falls behinf, his dagger success rate is not shifting too much. The ghost hunter does most damage overall (at lvl 78 his success rate of dagger skills on interlude is close to 90%). The wind rider has the success rate a bit over the ghost hunter's, but it lacks the critical power passive, is means that his skill damage isn't that high. In exchange, he's got critical chance, which is goot for farm and melee fighting.

You want to shoot comfortably from a big distance get an archer. I recommend moonlight sentinel, elf archer, has the highest critical rate, and this thing affects critical rate of skills too. The second i recommend is saggitarius (human archer) it's better in pvp of course but he lacks moving speed, and that is essential. The ghost sentinel is a kind of prototype archer, the passives you get are orientated more to daggery, so he's kind of a hybrid archer. Very weak in pvp, but very good in mass pvp or last man standing. Because he can hit and run, and his hits are slow but deal quite a lot of damage.

The tanks: If you are new to the game, i recommend dark avenger (human), his shield stun is very good but he lacks speed of course. At lvl 78 compared, the shilien knight might kick the das ass because he relies on drain and on cubics that makes the enemy pretty much a vegetable. You enemy will have decreased pdef, patk, atk speed, you enemy will be poisoned (a pretty good poison i might add) and the last cubics does magical damage to the enemy, it takes his hp and transfers it to you. The sk might lack hp, but he does more damage, and the sk pdef and shield defence rate is higher than the das. Finally the temple knight would kick the ass out of the da too, because o fhis cubics of course. He's got damage cubic, heal cubic and hold cubic. His pdef is the same as the sk, and the block rate is about 1-2% higher (insignificant). But he has more hp, so could cap the sk ass too. The heal cubic does a real good job.

Of you want me to explain mages tell me.

Best races in C4 on PvP 1vs1 is Light elves Mystic Muse!!!This is reality!!!
But Mass PvP when is good party is Human Necromancer!
This is Chaotic chronicle 4!

ALL RACES AND CLASSES R GOOD; THERES NO BAD RACE; U JUST NEED TO KNOW HOW TO PLAY EACH CHARACTER


although, from my experience, i say:

PvE

elfs r good, they dont deal as much dmg as other races, but they can grind pretty well with their speed, crits and cast speed

anyway, all races r good for PvE, coz u will never (unless ur a dumbass) fight enemies too strong for u, as in PvP u dont know the lvl, skills, equips and buffs of the other guy, so in PvE u can always be more confident and rely on urself


PvP

as i said above, ALL classes r good their own way, but as far as i know, its kinda like this:

meele -> against meeles, bet on strenght and defense/HP, against ranged (nukers, archers) bet on speed to be able to catch the guy

ranged -> agains meele, bet on strenght, so that u can kill him before he reaches u, against ranged, bet on defense/HP and/or strenght, so that u can kill him before he kills u

and never forget to macro CP and GCP potions, use them as much as u can, if ur SH/necro/OL/WC use drains for HP and try to sleep/stun/hold to do any debuffs u might have, everything helps, and heal ur self in case of a nuker/elf and drain or simply use potions.

Try to make something inesperated or wait for the opponents error. Charge with full power or be a wise and tricky sniper...

but mainly, u have to play and see for urself, i never have a char for too long, i found a high rate server, and i try different classes, when i like some, i use it in a low rate, but u have to keep trying new things, new server, new players, new things!

thank you to all your help... this will give me a good idea to chose what races is the best for me... again thanx! guy's
/edit : next post was deleted coz i am tired of telling you people not to doublepost.
USE THE EDIT BUTTON!!!!!

u really made me laugh with that post:)

necros hit me for 200-400 dmg:) i dont think its much, do u?

Your class=?

200-400 dmg from necro is a bit overreacted. But i think he has an overlord anyway.

Make a Tyrant

FFS M8 FFS da>all classes if he is not noob as for sk...dont forget the buffed panther with IMBA speed and IMBA dmg also dont forthet sheidl stun and root and harmstring not to mention reflect dmg majesty and all that self buffs...just sk-tk-all daggers all mages all light are owned by da on low rate servers
look the best chars is human in pvp ALL TANK:DA ARCHER :HE DAGGER:TH u just dont want to admit it and u try to prove that elf daggers with 11or so con less is better

i believe he asked about races not classes

Orc and human ftw

You know people like you make me FUCKING swear. Where's the damn proof? Th sucks at lvl 78/80. His blow success rate is just too low. A th does a backstab. Nothing special, just a normal skill. An abyss walker lands a backstab. Shall i remind you that focus death means +90% damage from behind? So that means 2 backstabs in 1. And btw the human lacks speed in general. If you're so pro go on a normal server, you make a th, i make an aw and we'll see who pwnz who. Come to heaven's wail, i just raised my aw, hope to make it 80 tonight. The server is a balanced 200x. Come on DA isn't the best tank to be. You're forgetting that an sk has the liberty of choosing a different weapon. If he's locked to mj heavy set at armor to keep him from getting stunned that doesn't mean he can't go for a som magic power which just about doubles the debuff success rate and his drains will suck twice as much hp from you. Remember that a panther is just a summon. You calculate a summon with the master's buffs, and the DA can't buff his panther. Till the DA buffes his panther... Well it's first a waste of time, cause it's got limited life and it will die anyway. Second that panther doesn't die hard. Remember that lightning strike has a good success to land on the panther. You will get hexed, slowed, poisoned, slowed attack speed, low patk, you're a vegetable that the sk eats through drains. And then again. Sk is oriented for fighting. But his pdef and shield block rate is considerable higher than the DAs.

Does con matter in pvp? Not for dagger vs dagger. The th won't land his blows often enough. The pvp doesn't really last too much. Hex is a bonus for more damage, power break is there to cap your damage, slow is there for me to debuff you... Want more? Mortal strike is there to boost my blow success... Focus death is there to boost my blow success to roughly 95% as i saw in a movie, and if my bluff lands bb because i do much more damage from behind, unlike a th. What blow success have you got? A decent 60% not more. Your speed? Dash? Response is blinding blow which boosts my speed better. Switch is a mob thing it doesn't work in pvp. Trick we both have.

Btw: why do you count root in a melee combat? It will not be permanently on me and an sk will only run a few meters away for the safer cast.

ON SUMMARY: a piece of advice... Humans got the duelist. Cut the crap about the th cause it sucks. It's an early game character... You throw him to the garbage at lvl 80. You say the DA is best at pvp? Oh reaaally? How'bout a DA vs a destro old buddy? It's PURE RAPE as adrian said in another topic. Don't tell me you're gonna pvp a necro with a DA... Your speeds will be the same, you will surely be slowed and cursed to hell. Maybe a paladin. NOT A DA.
