new player//help to decide :)

hey there, i would be coming from naia as i dont like situation in there at all regarding bots, rmt, and too big competition, huge gap between top player and average regardless play skills.

1. is this server core p2w? a little bit don't mind..
2. is it a huge gap between top player and average? in naia top players would be ebayers, rmt, botters when they got **** loads adena, equip themselves and one or two hit average players. dont like to compete when have to put real money in game.
3. all being banned regardless if u buy from l2store or not? don't like when some get away with botting because bought **** from l2 store.
4. how is economy here? hard to sell r grade and r95? any chance making adena buying and reselling stuff like r grade and r95 not only top end game gear?
5. how many ppl average online?
6. pvp only at top lvl or u can find and on the way to 99? and at all is here hard to find pvp?

for now would be thats it, really appreciate for all your answers and time

 

i'll answer to this one. yes the server is p2w in the sense that with the right amount of cash you can become really strong in a few months.
can you archive everything without paying? yes but it will take you a lot more time.
if you aren't dedicated enough don't blame p2w.

 

1. yes
2. yes, huge gap. many players don't want to come to this server, because they don't want to grind 1-2 years for a decent stuff.
3. here, you cant buy ban lifting from l2store.
4. not hard to sell any stuff from r grade. about reselling, it's not easy.
5. probably only admins knows this, but there is no problems to find party for dailies, and adena town always packed with noobs ^^ my computer is lagging from them :\
6. pvp from about 95 lvl, but of course top players with top equipment will one-hit you.

 

core atm has a decent population,means its full of ppl.about p2w question for sure isnt like ncwest,its way better,you dont see starwars red weapons in every corner like in ncwest,we dont have brooch here,hero coins feature,dewr in l2store like there.here you can obtain some items with small chance and big luck from some boxes.economy is fine,items here are way less expensive than in ncwest cause its obvious,no bots here,so for one non botter who earn his adenas with manual farming here is paradise.about pvp,you can find it everywhere if you try flag i suppose .
core is the best l2 server atm to play w/o doubts.thats why the half or more population of it came from ncwest (including me).

 

if u want to be best char on server, then server will be pay2win for u. don't know how it is on ertheia but i started to play on valliance. with 3 months ( only pa) did lvl 98 ( almost99) full + 6 set full attri and almost 2 bilions adena playing only for 4-5 hours on day max! and didnt log everyday...so i think its ok. its more easy if u play support. lvl is not a problem, couse at lvl 85 u can easy get party for s3, for rbs. if u have luck u can get drop from rbs. ppl still buyng immortals set. twilight sets u can buy and sell very good. usually at lvl 95 u have money for set seraph. most important thing is here u dont have sooo many bots like on nc west, but still u can met many real players. someone said core is dead, but come on...i think its not true. last two weeks i spend on chronos server and party matching was like half of this from core. didnt count adena sellers...about pvp.u can pvp at every lvl if u will flag first. best way to make some pvp is go with friends and steal rb still dont understand why ppll playing on nc west.

sorry for english

 

so far i like this server, looks clean.. seen rmters, but they do not spam as in west, they worse spammers than some people :d i like that premium acc feature- offline exping, more exp and so on, dont feel bad at all leaving my acc at naia pa points awesome.. love every bit so far here
and aden isnt nerfed here? roughly at lv 95 how much u get per mob?

 

ofc adena is nerfed here. many ppl dont even waste time to pick up this if u want adena u have to farm rbs, and zaken, oly..

 

but yesterday was farming in outlaw forest at lv47 or something, sorry dont remember spot, but aden drop was 1k which surprised me, at west u get 97lv only 800.. maybe because premium acc? but it do not affect adena only exp/sp and u get stuff ) well.. i will see on higher lv if i managed to make aden at west than should be easer here as somebody mentioned that ppl even buy immortal

 

pa don't affect adena drop rate / adena drop quantity at all.

 

didn't tried so many spots since last update, but on crossroads i was gestting yesterday around 5-8k adena / mob, so at least you can pay your consumables while leveling, the only place where you might lose a bit adena while leveling will be stronghold 3

 

5-8k?? omg thats a lot :d
