why dance/song 5 min?
and does it have mana potion or other custom features that i should know about ?

the only custom thing is buffs duration for dances and songs 5 min, 2nd class buyable, and quest items boosted. nothing else.

sounds good, except the duration of d/s.
why u chosen to do it that way?

personally i dont know, but from what i have read the forums, they wanted to increase but not too much so bd and sws will still be needed on mass pvp etc. imo 3 min or 5 min no difference.

but 2min and 5min is a lot of difference.
it's an extra thing which isn't needed at all.
it can only do harm, since ppl can box them = abuse them.

leave it retail and u'll get a +1 from me.

since dualbox is allowed it wont make a difference, and its not 2 min but 3 min retail like

you should have shut up

d/s duration is one of the oldest things in l2, and it's 2min duration since ages.

exactly my point, since dualbox is allowed it will do a lot of harm, ppl will make boxed sws+bd and get buffed, go in a cata, 5min full buff = kill full party = abuse.
leave it retail and it's better.

w.e its fine by me, we still need active supports no matter what.

It's 5 min so they will always have mana...! So they can rest a little longer..and fight so they will be used as a fighter to...not Dance/song and sit!

A thing that other ppl won't understand is that XP is 22x...And Adena rate will be 1x!...This will be a thing...But is for beter economy on the server!...

rofl right....



anyways
-1 from me
since l2max likes to wipe/close server in very short periods and dont give a fuck about communities opinion.

is a new staff team. so far they are doing a good job

isnt the guy named simple the admin now?
the same guy who persuaded phantom to go l2j instead of interlude when the community clearly for interlude?

gl with the new staff.....
