Newbie Graduation Gifts
Lineage Playforum reports (http://community.playforum.net:8080/bbs/prog/column?action=read&iid=10051004&kid=3873) on a new "newbie graduation gift" system which is going to all newbies who make it to level 12 on the test server.

We spoke of the Oilskin Cloak (which people remembered from beta, but with a different function). This is actually one of the graduation gifts that players will get when they reach level 12. Other possible gift: Cloak of Displacement, 500 Silver Arrows or a "Clear Robe" (still checking into the proper name of that last one).

The Cloak of Displacement is just a -1 AC cloak which weighs 10. No special properties are known about it, and given that it's a newbie gift, it is probably just a -1 AC cloak. It looks just like a Cloak of Protection, so already people are getting ripped off on the Korean Test server :(

#1 Not a nice idea at all...
A bad idea actualy, they get a cloak which is worse then ec or comr (and those aren't hard to get..)
At least newbies on LoA get nice stuff (1mp ebolt/skelly boots/rings).. which are actually usefull!

Alot of newbies dont know what a ec is. And comr's dont always litter the ground. A free cloak is great, gives you one more ac till you get a real one.

Or maybe we shouldnt start with daggers, just punch things until we can afford b-tsu :)

Whast point of calling the cloak a cloak of displacement when its just a -1ac junk cloak. Cloak of displacement would mean it displaces the user(which means you appear somewere else then you actually are so you get more ac). NC needs to read about cloaks of displacement from other game systems to know why its called a cloak of displacement. NC is so lazy they use same old junk graphics for different named items.

i'm agree with marak on some points, if nc wants to ad items they have to be imaginative to make new items diffrent from old ones

why do u make it harder for nc to put new items in game, who cares how the newbie cloak looks?
if u always react on new items like this maybe nc will think twice before putting new items in game
