Can you explain what do you mean in that post ?


According to http://legacy.lineage2.com/news/gracia_04.html , the m crit rate cap was added only in gracia part I and not in HB (so we should still have the huge m crit rate if we stack WM augments , valakas and hero weapon)
Can you confirm it ?


Changes to Magic Critical Damage

The magic critical rate has been increased to 10 times.
The magic critical damage has been decreased to 3 times from 4 times of normal damage.
The magic critical damage rate has been adjusted so that its occurrence rate does not exceed a maximum of 20%.

When is it coming ? Tomorrow ?

Scared of the link?

Yes tomorrow.

Do you have plans for a massive advertisement campaign?
All the work you putted in, all the hours after all you created a really promising project, but my worries are there is simply not a community to join and make your server good.Currently most of EU community is used to H5, and not a lot of them will go back to HB, while other part of community is hardcore Interlude fans, who also probably won't go up to HB.
Your forum seems kinda empty, with just 8 recruitment topics, which is really worrying.And if you dont gather ~3-3,5k ppl, sadly i dont think server will last long.

Our forums have averaged a higher online than most other servers that have huge communities with multiple servers and have done so for months already. The majority of activity in our forums is hidden in the CB forums.

Our Forums



RPG-Club



Dex



We also rank #5 on page 1 of google for "Lineage 2 Classic" which gets over 30k searches a month. We are actively advertising on all types of related Lineage 2 sites and blogs and have been featured already in many articles. We are active and posting at this time on around 250 Lineage 2 related forums and many of those are clan forums.

And we have even a larger advertising campaign planned during open beta. I don't see there being any problems with population. I don't know too many clans that post their intent to play during a servers closed beta

Expect massive Ddos at start

Yeah is to be expected.
