Looks like Fracas came back with some new tools to detect bots, since the last server reset many bots are gone and even some of the high-level 'I stay forever' bots! Good job on that - keep it up NC!
NCK seems to be very busy - tons of news flooding the asian Lineage news websites. Most are about the new stat-system with the 35 stat cap instead of 25. While the majority seem to like it, all those who did max out CON and delevel thing see their time wasted - no wonder some of them needed 3 years to do that. If the new stat-system really comes then HP gambling will not be possible anymore because CON (and WIS) becomes more static and adding to CON at lvl 51+ will reflect that instantly! If you go full DEX or STR you'll do major damage but in cost of lots HP, since you can't max out more than one stat anymore. Guess we'll see both, highly specialised chars and many mutants then :P All this is still in testing and almost daily there are changes but all signs are that we'll get this system - some day o.o
Beside all that fancy news I'm still hunting 41f. Currently I have 145 41f scrolls and I'll hunt 41f either till I get a Heart of Dragon or I'm out of scrolls. Usually a hunt lasts 2-3h, so if I'm out of scrolls, I'll have been ~290-435 hours on 41f! In that time I'll make karma lvl 3, because I hunt TOS for Black Blood Stones to make Sgems for my 41f hunts (I need to cast erase magic to TU the ghosts and it still fails 50%) - at least I don't need wafers or pots there, so 120-150sgems per hunt are ok for me. We'll see how this mission will go....
Today we end some bosses: Demon, Bapho and Phoenix, best drop was a ndai from Bapho, the other didn't even drop a zel. More luck next time....maybe :P
they should make the drops
they should make the drops better then just 1-4 lines of nothing or sometime they drop nothing also :) for the bosses ..and any news if they gonna increase the HoD also for epi6 and U??
I've killed many bosses in
I've killed many bosses in my Lineage years and most drop junk. Then last week we ended Seer, Vampire and Cougar in a row (same spawn time) and ALL drop us a charm o.o The worst drop I ever got was from Kurtz: 39a and a brave pot! 39a - hello? Someone there?
Most bosses will get stronger in Ep6/EpU (e.g. Zombie Lord will have 8000hp instead of 3000), so be careful in Ep6 when you try to solo a boss again.
No word about a increased drop rate of HoDs. All HoD drops I heard about were during 2x drop events...
Wee stronger bosses now
Wee stronger bosses now NC will just have to UP the drop rate for stuff!
