hey there, iam currently playing on the servers of ncwest. since i got bored there because many of my ingame friends left i was thinking of switching to l2.eu now. i got several questions regarding the server etc, hopefully someone is willing to help me out. 1) as far as i know there is just one server: core. what is its ~ online players? 2) how about bots? rmts and bots get really annoying on ncwest servers. 3) i heard there is something like "path to awakening" on ncwest servers here now as well. what is this excactly about? is it also like free time-limited stuff if you reach several milestones ingame? 4) is there also mentoring? on ncwest you get buffs + 200% exp from a mentor (i think 200% are from premium account here if iam not totally mistaken), how about at l2.eu? 5) what about premium accounts? what advantages do they offer (except 200% exp) 6) it looks like the game is released in more languages than just english. on the website it seems like it can also be downloaded in german. how about this? 7) are there any german clans over here? thx in advance!
good choice on switching server. i did that as well. never did something better. 1) at the beginning it can look for you as a ghost server. it is not true! just there are no bot trains you're seeing on ncwest servers. there are a lot of players playing. force fast to 85+ and you'll see yourself. we have no idea how many people are playing the server, but they are enough. 2) i never met one bot on core. rmts are not exhisting here, due to there are no bots to make the adenas and sell them for real money. you won't see this here. 3) yes there is evolutionary road. it is a better thingy than path of awakening though. you can see more details here: https://4gameforum.com/showthread.php?t=12469 4) mentoring here is working the same way as ncwest servers. no difference. 5) premium account is a nice thingy for casual players. it gives you double experience, you can open dual box (without it you can't), opening some special zones and also a dragon that gives ya once/day a special item. nothing to disbalance the server though. 6) yes, you can download the client in english, german and recently in polish. however the server is the same 7) i suppose there is. you can check the forum, there is a german section. i suppose you'll find what you're searching for. good luck!
i'm just going to answer the objective questions, others can have fun answering the others sorry! https://4gameforum.com/showthread.php?t=12469 free c-s80 gear, pots, nevits, and xp rune. and some other stuff... mentoring is as ncwest. pa stacks with mentor buff. quoting from https://4gameforum.com/showthread.php?t=14054 with premium account you can: get twice as much xp receive three times more vitality (300% instead of 100%) and twice as many vitality recovering items (10 instead of 5) easily get even on overpopulated servers launch the game in multiple windows simultaneously enter rim kamaloka solo get an opportunity to summon a three-headed agathion (from which you can obtain various useful items, like blessed scroll of escape, vitality potions, etc.) there is a german server (or there will be), i don't know if you can use german client on international server... no idea :d
you ll receive 200% from mentor plus premium account double xp bonus. but according to me is no use, due to if you're camping bosses in the mornings (there are rooms open all the time) you'll level up really fast and without premium account. i would save my money for after 86 level however if you want to level up even faster you can buy and pa you are taking extra xp and from the bosses as well.
no 200% mean a multiplier of +1. so mentor and pa is base xp +1 +1 = 300% so with vitality, mentorbuff and pa you get 400% xp. german client dont work. when you use the german client you can only play on the beta germanserver and no one is there and yes here are no bots. thats the reason i play here.
ill answer in honesty and being realistic 1. there are many players and numbers are close to same to naia (taking only their live players into count) 2. rmt happens everywhere and also on core. difference is that innova doesnt put op stuff on l2store, so its easy to catch up with rmters. bots are really at a minimum and get banned fairly fast. 3. evolutionary road, check the official thread for full info. 4. mentor works normal but alrdy from lvl1 on. so pa+mentor = huge exp 5. dual boxing and agathion with a chance for a one hour vitality potion for example. 6. no u cant. the foreign clients will have own servers. german one is in beta atm. i think. on core u can only use the english one. 7. i didnt see any yet. most ppl feel welcome in international clans. all answers are automatically 100% correct cuz they are mine qq all
sorry for the incorrect information i provide about the non english clients. thank you krontax and hax for correcting me (shame on me i m so uninformed, due to i m za troll around :d ). edit: about the rmt, here if there are (cuz i didnt met any), they are nothing like ncwest servers... there players are spammed with rmt so much that they don't have space to block them.
actually no pa doubles everything except rune was leveling together with a friend and with everything i had 1050% xp or 1100% (on the double xp event)(ps. thats after 86 so no mentoring)
so basically atm there is core, but there are plans to open new, localized server like enlish, polish etc ones? are those beta server x1 or kinda "high rate" or you start with high lvl toon, like on pts!
they are 1x rates and the official localized servers will be like core. i dont think there will be an english one (as we have already the official one held in english). currently german+polish servers are announced, but on different login servers, different clients etc etc. they have currently no connection to "core". there will be probably a few more coming, but as i'm not part of the staff i can't tell you exactly which one is next. best way will be just to start on core.
