10/1 - Korean Test Server updates

NC - Korea announces (https://bbs.lineage.co.kr/lineage/new_announcement/pre_lineage/read.asp?ListNum=61&NoticeID=2&PageNum=1) the following updates made to the Korean test servers on 10/1:

Forgotten Island:
- Drop rate of ancient armor, weapons and scroll have been increased.
- Ancient Great Sword damage has been changed from 20/35 to 35/20.
- Ancient Crossbow bonus has been changed from +5 to hit to +1 damage and +5 to hit.
- Forgotten Island Dark Elf has been added.
- Lucky (the teleport NPC) appearance time has been shortened (that means he appears less often)
- Weight of ancient armors has been decreased.
Colosseum is now lit up at night.
Orc Town and Woodbec Colosseum bugs fixed.
The Summoned Ettins of level 52 mages now have stronger attacks.

The only way off of Forgotten Island is to try to find Lucky or Osiris. Lucky may not be there much, but to get to Osiris you have to run past *two* Forgotten Island drake spawns. *gulp*

what happens if you restart in forgotten island? if you restart/quit in dragon lairs (cant tele there), you are back to town when you log in

If you restart in FI, you will be in the FI starting location. Which is not that safe of a place. But you will still be on the island. Lucky/Osiris are the only exits.

I think the idea is that you shouldn't go there unless you can be sure you are strong enough to leave. FI is not a place where a strong knight runs around levelling up 1:1, although I'm sure they will try anyway.

[lol, some poor lvl 30 is gonna be wandering arounnd, say 'hey, forgotten island, that sounds interesting, i think ill go there' - and come back at lvl 10]

Thats so wrong :), if i remember right, u gotta be like 46 or 47+ to enter forgotten island? right or wrong? maybe just 45+? ^^

This is like the first update with Only good things (in my opinion)

Thanks for the continuing information on Forgotten Island. It would be be very useful if Lineage Compendium added a summary of what is known about Forgotten Island. This could just be a combined listing of all of the news posts on Forgotten Island, or could be a more unified summary. Then those interested in learning about the upcoming episode could go to that one location rather than having to carry out an involved search. Altough I have been following the topic since the first announcement, there are times I wish I could easily go back and review some of the announcements.

they should change the DS to like 30/45......
make it the ultimate weapon in the game....
since I'm hearing how hard the test is....well....used to be......

I'm sure it will be more difficult now......

or maybe put in...+20 dragon damage bonus or +20 hit...
watch dragons and boss fall to your mighty weapon....hehe

I don't understand why the Great Sword was changed...You'd think 2-Handed Weapons would do more to large monsters. But nothing else in Lineage makes sense, so why should this, right?
