8/14 - Korean Test server update
The following publishes have been made to the Korean Test servers (https://bbs.lineage.co.kr/lineage/new_announcement/pre_lineage/read.asp?ListNum=52&NoticeID=2&PageNum=1) :
  • Four new level 15 quests (one for every class) have been added.
  • Significant changes to the graphics of Talking Island, in addition to the removal of the scarecrows and training area of the island.
  • Silver Knight's Town and Talking Island monsters have been strengthened.
  • New NPC has been placed in Ivory Tower for events: this NPC can cast Bless Weapon, Iron Skin, Greater Haste and Shapechange on you for 200a. (A current event on test server allows you to morph into Minotaur, Death, Succubus, Giant, Black Knight or Minotaur)
  • Adjusted the death penalty so it is always 10%. (Note that it may appear to be greater when you delevel since each level has a different total XP, but it is actually 10% of the experience of the level you died on).

Damn, so if you delevel at 49.01% you'll actually loose about 25-30% on lvl 48? Ouch

Experience loss always 10%? This is still inequitable to high level players. If NC is constantly looking to "balance" the game, they need to make the amount of time necessary to gain experience back following death, even for all levels. This means adjusting the experience loss by level. For me, making up experience, especially after getting PK'ed by NC (lag and d/c), is the single most discouraging aspect of the game.

LOL, RG

This update sounds sweet as well, nice work NC!!! Wonder if this will be in the US as quickly as the past few have been! I like the vamped up TI and HV, much better for leveling.

HMM...
I'm really confused, I read about the update on Nue's site before they are posted on lincomp. However, for the death penalty, Nue said that the % lost upon death is modified such that it will differ according to different lvl. Here it says that the % lost is always 10% regardless of your lvl...Is there a mistake in translation on Nue's website or here? Please clarify this thank you.

Acidtrance, you made a good point. If you lose 10% of your current level, and your at 49.01, then you'll lose the 1% of 49, then another 9% which at level 48 is equal to around 27%. All said, if you die at 49.01, you'll be at 48.73. That's harsh.

I can see it now.."Monitor! I just died and lost 26%! How is that possible?!"

#7 It's supposed to be discouraging. If everyone lost the same amount of experience, it would be too easy to get to a high level.
#13 You'll lose the equivalent of the 10% as long as you're on 49, then at 48, you'll lose the equivalent of 9% at 48. You'll lose 10 actual percent no matter what level you're on.
