5/7 - Korean Live Server publish announcement
NC Korea announced that the following updates (https://bbs.lineage.co.kr/lineage/new_announcement/update/read.asp?ListNum=149&PageNum=1) were published to the Korean Test server on 5/7:
  1. /duel system introduced to PvP servers (non-PvP server duel system will be implemented at a later time). When you die, you do lose XP. However, you don't drop items. If you teleport or restart, that is considered a loss. You don't become chaotic for killing another player in PvP, but, if 2 people are in a duel and a player hits one of the players in the duel, a guard will come after the player that interferes with the duel.
  2. Windows XP bug with making new pledges has been fixed.
  3. You can teleport to Aden from each town except Orc Town.
  4. You can toggle incoming mail using the /mail command. (/mail on to receive, /mail off to block)
  5. Re-enabled /music command (/music on to turn on the music, /music off to mute it)
  6. Miscellaneous bugs fixed.

A gamble would be very nice. It would be cool if you could gamble on LiTo too, but I guess NCSoft is against gambling in the game now since it forces the rating of the game to go higher.

TheCollector: Don't forget Korean Test is not like US Test. Updates on that server don't necessarily make it to live. So, consider the Live announcement "the way it works" and the Test announcement as just an idea they're messing with.

Perhaps one can see duel win/loss on a /who query. People actually do duel in the "field" (as they refer to "normal" zones) if they really have a big problem with each other -- such as two people who want to keep their reputations, but cannot stand each other for some reason or another. I guess this helps them (but going chao can be fixed by 5 hours of hunting..).

I think turning mail off would be very useful o.o
Sometimes when someone is bugging you, so you block him, he'll start spamming you with mail (100 mail is less than 4k adena, and its a real pain in the ass if he decides to send you >300).

Well for those of you who read this reep its information and spread it throughout. Ncsoft has done some very bad stuff lately and are slowly diminishing their paying customers....Well for those of you who have problems with ncsoft and they refuse to fix them well here is your chance to get some reason out of it.... Try calling this little magic number 1-512-338-9579
yes this is the magic number that you call for your problems.. when you call they usually say this is the wrong number but obviously its not.. this is also courdousy of me and the magic coe of lineage :) don't give up if they decline the first time maby someone can talk some sence into em since I don't want to have anything else to so with lineage... so enjoy the number and i am not lieing.. so for those of you who believe me enjoy its benefits

Because some people believe that NCI is not doing a very good job of game administration. Frankly, they aren't. Just consider this:

The same bug was in with orange potions for a whole month, and sol made good use of it. None of them were "disciplined." They undeoubtedly made many millions (maybe tens? hundreds?) of adena off of this.

People were experimenting with this bug (no doubt keeping sol and their exploit of the oj bug in mind) and made (or so they claim) less than 1mil. They were banned immediately.

This shows inconsistency in NCI's treatment of customers. Did they have a recent policy change? I did not notice any in the ToS.

Regardless, that is why people like Chile1 decide to post such things. He believes that the unprofessional behavior of NCI should not deserve customers.

i remember this command worked on korean test long time ago and was pulled.. i don't know about exp loss at the time but yeah you can dual in normal zone and actually is pretty cool for mages and elves since they have the freedom to walk away tactically. we all got too used to the idea of standing by doorway to have a dual but if you think about it.. its really lame. they only built that so people won't block doors.

Maybe they want /duel to be a serious matter, a PvP fight without going chao could be a very good and fair way to workout issues between players. sometimes is very unfair when u get pked by thisone player you have issues with and 5 of his friends. so just dare him into a 1vs1 battle to see if he can call you newbie again.

(I probably didnt make my self clear)

would be nice if they could add modalities tot his command such as duel w/ no pots, duel w/50 reds w/50oranges etc etc


still learning english =)

Pretty good english, Mincho. Much better than some others who post here o.O

Great idea with that. Make it kinda like LiTo but you can drop exp.

It does seem kinda wierd that people from same server go to LiTo to duel. Even if they hate each other, and would like to see the other drop exp (probably no one is dumb enough to duel while chao), people prefer LiTo or doorway because of possible and frequent interferences -- or possible cheats like using blessed pots (they look the same as normal..) or getting enchants (secretly) before dueling.

Limiting people to specific enchants (like haste/brave/wafer) and specific #/type of pots would really encourage this system to be used.

most ppl would tele away before dying obviously

I doubt anyone will have enough honour to die and lost exp unless they don't care about their character

if u want a duel to the death, LiTo or doorway would be the best

I can see ppl abusing this

having a duel just outside of town than someone thinks one of them is pking and attacks then the guard takes out the person who interfared
or
asses block the town entrance by having a duel with their friends
if anyone touches one of them, guard will go after them
ppl better watch who u hit....@_@

I wonder if you would be able to declare a dual on someone who is unwilling. This would be a good feature as long as there is a way to ensure that it can not be abused.
