Thank you to everyone reporting bugs, and helping test them as we introduce fixes.

Noice

Can you increase exp rate on test server? I'd like to test more stuff.

This change wasn't live for a reason. Specially related to Fidelity weapons. You  have opened a pandora's box here. A real problem.

You are endorsing more bullying and RMT with this change. The damage is already done, but it can be mitigated. Think it twice.

If my level 75 knight has unsealed chapter 8, I would stop farming it to get something I need on my priority list... Same for Demon Staff with my lv 75 mage.

The following items can now be traded in the client (requires you to run launcher and update):

• Staff of Demon
• Staff of Beleth
• Crystal of Dark Elf Soul
• Black Magic Powder
• Sealed Chapters 1-8
• Unsealed Chapters 1-8
• Completed Method

darkjustice,

These items could always be dropped / stored since forever, on all private servers. This isn't anything new. The only change I made, was to stop the client from blocking it from being traded. The client has a list of 'untradeable' items, that if you try to put into /trade it would not allow, so you had to drop them, or store them, ect. 

I know what the change involves :)

Played Lineage 9 years live.

3 months on private servers since August this year.

Studied Computer Science major and did game development since I was 17yo. Not anymore though.

You have to think about the consequences of something like "being able to be dropped" to trade and make it actually "tradeable".

Do you think it helps the economy long run? It doesn't. Those mils adena just change hands.

Does it helps reducing RMT? No, it doesn't. It enforces it.

Does it help long term stability? No, it doesn't. Because it promotes old players over new players. And you need new players always.

Does it help to the short-minded bullies? Yes. They can power farm and trade to their alters.

 

All this said. Your server, your rules. I enjoy it. When I will not, I will leave. Don't worry, the bullies and those who invest in RMT stay lurking and linger more than the regular player. I don't want to imply I want to leave. But private server stagnation occurs... You can mitigate it... Or not.

My 5 cts. 

P.S. You can always use those "rare" items data-tracking for RMT abusers. There is something positive about this change.

Hey,

What I was trying to say, is that trading the items was nothing new. They have been marked as 'tradeable' in the database for years in l1j-en. I didn't change any mechanic other than updated the client side, which didnt change anything server side. I understand what you are saying, but I'd like to also point out the legit value in it. The Lasta 4F is often congested, and being able to be traded allows new players to farm and save Adena to purchase extra chapters from players as well. The RMT side of things, is something we are trying to stop on the backend, without limit actual players ability to make Adena based transations. These rare items are also monitored very closely.

Silver arrows being sold for 1 adena didn't get transfered to live server.  Only thing from the list I noticed so far. - Thanks

Yeah I noticed that too, we can't sell our silver arrows yet on live. I hope it will be implemented soon cause I always have a lot of those :P
