As you can see on the high level players' list, the highest level elf was at lv62 on June 10. however, NonenoN power-leveled in a surprising speed and caught up with the tops elves of the other servers.
Please read on for the full interview.
The folllowing interview was conducted on July 12, 2005.
Nukata: Thank you for having this interview
NonenoN: npnp ^^ ty too.
Nukata: We appreciate it very much
Nukata: When did you reach lv65 exactly?
NonenoN: Yesterday. Early morning.
Nukata: Where were you at the moment of leveling up?
NonenoN: FI
Nukata: Please introduce yourself to the LineageOne readers.
NonenoN: I live in LA. I am a Taiwanese and around 22 years old. People call me Law in this game, because my name is Lawrence.
Nukata: How long have you been playing Lineage?
NonenoN: I have been playing Lineage for 5 years already. I started it on a Chinese server at first. Then, I came to the US server as I moved to LA.
Nukata: How long have you been playing this elf?
NonenoN: I have been playing this elf around 2-3 years.
Nukata: How long did it take for you to level up from lv64 to 65?
NonenoN: I think around 10 days. I only play around 10 hours a day. Sometimes just chilling in the mainland.
Nukata: Where do you mainly hunt? Also, hou much exp can you gain per hour?
NonenoN: South of FI, Doppel zone. Also BB area gives a good exp. The exp rate depends on mops' spawn rate. At maximum, I gained 1 % in 40 min.
Nukata: What kind of things do you pay attention at hunt?
NonenoN: Mostly my HP. You can not die when you power-level. the best way to gain % is not to lose %.
Nukata: Have you felt tired or pressured in Lineage? In such a time, how do you get relaxed?
NonenoN: Yes, sometimes. Then I take sometime away from Lineage. I like to play basketball and hang around with my friends. LA is a good place to have fun. There are lots of parties going on here.
Nukata: For those who do not play on DEP, please tell about your pledge.
NonenoN: SoL is a very big pledge. They are very helpful, and I have a lot of friends there.
Nukata: What was the best thing you have experienced in this game?
NonenoN: My friends and the relationships with them. I will be friends with them forever even one day I do not play this game anymore. My lineage time will eventually end, but the friendship will stay.
Sometimes, I think I hunt for exp too much. I only have a little time for the friends.
Nukata: Do you think you will continue to level up to 70 now?
NonenoN: I think I will relax for a while and hunt with my pledge members.
Nukata: What is the charm of Lineage for you?
NonenoN: To be able to challenge yourself, see what is the best you can do, and get to know with lots of people.
Nukata: What problems do you find with this game?
NonenoN: Disconnection and lag. I died once because of lag at lv64.
Also, you come to see the real face of people. You might find out bad sides of people while you spend time with them. Such as bad manner, ill-talks, and cheatings.
Nukata: How could Lineage be improved?
NonenoN: Make all the races balanced. For example, now the elf is kind of weak compared to other classes both in hunting and PvP. But I think it takes turns.
Nukata: Do you have any words to other elves?
NonenoN: Do not give up! Elves rock!
Nukata: I read your blog, and I was surprised you got 2 Ancienct scrolls in a short period of time.
NonenoN: Actually, 5 A-scrolls during about a 5-day period.
Nukata: Gee, those were a great present for Lv65.
NonenoN: Yep, thanks, NC too!
Nukata: Thank you for having this opportunity. I hope you play Lineage for long and have fun time in it.
NonenoN: Thank you for the interview too.
Hmm 1% in 40 minutes; some pe
Hmm 1% in 40 minutes; some people just like to drag it too far. Then again I guess I must have quitted Lineage too long and became a total noob. If you must know I am The Forgotten Elf of Ken Rauhel at upsaid.com/chance. Even on full wafers with summon for 1%, I barely earned it in 50 minutes. Without summon and on full wafers it was also close to 50 minutes because hunting with summon I was able to move through the forest a lot faster and end more mops. It basically balances out. At one point I even switched to wind to hunt without summon and used potions and did not even get 1% in less than 50 minutes... Without wafers I had to spend 55min to 1hr to just get 1% and that was with no talking for 1 full hour (chat & whisper off).
The great powerful Herc back then had to spend at least 55 minutes to just get 1%. With his healbot mage, he barely tops 1% in 45~50 minutes... Even though I was known for my superior strength in swords combat, I also had my damage with bow maxed out. Hmmm so I wonder if this guy used like +10 Sayha's Bow or something lol. Lv62 to 65 in about 1 month time and still had time to chill out with friends and play basketball... amazing lol. When I earned 1% in about 25 days and people thought I was crazy back then.
I consistently earn 1.1% per
I consistently earn 1.1% per hour of playing. I think if you get a really high spawn rate early in the morning or at off-peak hours it is possible to earn 1% in that time, or at least fairly close. Law's bow does do alot more damage then mine for hunting, but ill leave it up to him if he wants to state which bow he uses. He is a very motivated guy but still spends time at fights and hunting with me sometimes. Congrats law, you deserve to be the best elf on dep.

If you hunt with Summon, Elve
If you hunt with Summon, Elven summon lasts over 1hr even though the description only says 1hr, but it actually lasts like 1hr and about 10min. That would change the whole 1%/(time) thing if you use the Elven Summon to time yourself. Mages' summons last exactly 1hr. The moment I started shooting the first mop, I noted the time down and always stop at exactly when the next hour hits that same minute. Any high level Elf can earn over 1~1.1% in South FI if they use the summon to time and I did not go by that, but instead I used the time watch whether soloing or with summon.
Why would I lie about how muc
Why would I lie about how much time i need to make 1%? To make more ppl want to hunt S. FI? Its not like I can get it in 40 minutes everyday...it is just the fastest I was able to get it. Just to make things clear I usually need 1 hour to get 1%. About chilling in r/l, of course I dunt have time to chill that much when I am power lvling, but I do my best to go out with my friends whenever I can. plz dont judge me if u dont know me.
NonenoN
