  1. There has been some significant concerns about PK/Karma.  So first, I'll have some things to say, then I'd love some feedback. What do you think? What have you seen other servers do about PK/Karma that you like.?

    Some of the concerns are that it is too easy to burn Karma on a bot server that is not jammed packed with characters everywhere fighting over territory.  Fundamentally, I agree that it should not be easy to burn karma. 

    Yes it sucks when someone PK's you. Last night some of my testing bots were PK'd. It Sucks. I don't script much, unlike so many of you, so it really hurts. I understand people at my relatively low scripting ability. 

    FIRST: Don't ask a GM/Admin to help you burn karma, kill you when you're red, help you teleport, or alter game play in any way especially as it pertains to PVP/PK . Straight out, we're not going to do it!

    1.  PK and karma are component of the game, so we have no plans to eliminate it. (again we're open to suggestions on how this works on a bot server)
    2.  I agree it is easy to burn off, but we lack a solution at this time. 
    3.  People who go on sensless killing sprees and turn red, should struggle with all karma consequences such as the possibility to loose gear. 
    4.  We are considering posting more guards around low zones and reduce karma loss per SP and death.

    There is something right now that you can do as a server. We have global shout. Make it hard for people to burn off karam safely.  OOPS, did I just tell you to use global shout. Listen some DRAMA is ok, but outright disrespect, trolling, flamebaiting is uncalled for and we've made no promises of unfettered freedom to run your mouth without limit in global shout. 

    • Shout Out where you were PK'd 
    • Shout out were you see a Red burning off their Karma. 
    • form clans and friends, hopefully strong friends, and communicate 
    • help others learn to script
      • share basic scripts in forums and help grow the community. (who knows such behavior might be rewarded)
        • such as: auto rebuff with ALT-B
        • return to hunting spot
      • make a tutorial on how to BUFF with Adrenalin and other bot programs with default settings in bot program.

    OK let's start a RESPECTFUL conversation (yeah right, its like herding cats) about how we can keep an intergral portion of the game, but maybe make it practical for a bot server.

  2. Premium Account (PA)

    You can purchase a premium account (PA) for a single game account at 10 Coin of Life (CoL) per month per in-game account. However, the best value is to purchase a Premium Master Account (PMA) at 100 CoL per month and up to 20 accounts will be premium and all characters under that Master Account will be premium. Your account status can be found under ALT-B and the Home Tab and Premium accounts in-game can be purchased here. 

    Bd24jPUmSY4G8eCnGm_eGR11pEVd6g1bh5Odnpp3ZrjFAykwWt4GdN62qI91bpMYS1mX-BNJHH2Mg8PX6s0Teiwgy4HDRzGX88-UAu-u99VdR4sl6cTB-OH-y9yA4kaCwZI7aMdP

    As you can see,  a premium account boosts XP, SP, Adena, Item drops, spoil, and quest drop rate by 30%. 

     

    Other Benefits of a Premium account. Buffs from ALT-B last 3 hours instead of 2 and additional buffs are available with this account such as summon, warsmith, and combo resist buffs.

    Vitality

    Vitality has been reworked. Vitality will remain a constant boost of 50% no matter the vitality level. In addition to boosting XP by 50%, it will also boost SP, adena, item drops, spoil rate, and quest item drops. No more leveling faster than drops. Click Alt B to see your boosted state. 

    Vitality Only bonus

    The benefits of both Premium and Vitality stack for an 80% boost combined. 

  3. I know you're going to post a buff script for Adrenalin at some point.

    I'd like to be able to choose from a custom buff scheme for me and a separate one possibly for a pet. 

  4. Beginner's Guide for Lineage 2 High Five L2Toggle Style. 

    Even though you can get great buffs when you first start from the ALT-B Buffer, some people still desire gear. There is a quest for a wooden set or a magic robe set. Here's a guide for the "Supply Check" Quest

    1. Create character

    2. Click ALT-B, click the buffs tab and select or create a buff scheme. 

    3. Talk to Newbie Helper. (In every starter town he is the NPC on the right)

     image.png.73f10ab8df72243f4e0f93a443586083.png      image.png.2be6d4e0952b4b0e1712af8263dc6511.png

    4. They ask you to attack a gremlin. Attack until you get the blue gemstone. At this point I suggest you keep attacking Gremlins until you arejust past level 3 . (You must be level 2 to being the "Supply Check Quest", BUT if you are just over level3 when you begin the quest you'll get enough xp to be level 6 and be able to get a shadow weapon from another Newbie Helper. Like I said buffs are real nice so you don't necessarily need them, but heck it couldn't hurt.)

    5. Talk to the Newbie Helper once you have the Blue Gemstone. 

    6. They tell you to talk to the NPC on the left and the Newbie Helper Gives you some soulshots or spiritshots for beginners. (In this Case it is Master Grand Roien for you Human Fighters).

    image.png.a66e43bb102d9b439d64edb7b2565ca0.png      image.png.a4f90ae58d4225b7506cb1357d6b141e.png

    7. Talk to the NPC on the left and select " I brought the recommendation"

    8. They will give you more soulshots or spiritshots for beginners and ask if you wanna continue to level here (In this case Talking Island) or go to the Isle of Souls (Kamael Village). Slect go to the Isle of Souls.

     image.png.152e83e3e6a288c23448a21e4aa9c909.png

    If you're running multiple characters at once like a full party, bring the full party here with you. With our system's ability to follow party leader's dialog, the party's quest and telports will be done seemlessly all together at once. The whole party follows and selects the same dialog with NPC for quests, so you don't need a script or click the Quest NPC's on all 9 characters. 

    9. Open your map.     

    image.png.0ab1c80fe5f149ecbdca7b84edbe2588.png

    • A. click World info
    • B. click Quest
    • C. click level so it is goes from lowest to highest level drag the bar down until you see "Supply check. 
    • D. it will show you the map outside the village. Click the tab marked D and it will show a map of inside the village.  
    • E. A flag will indicate where Marcela

    10. Talk to Marcela and click quest. There are two options, so select Supply check. Click through the dialog until it displays.

    image.png.5366da473c2fb0cd5de3009e7fc7a6d6.png

    11. To find each person you have to talk to for a quest, click ALT-M for the map. 

    • A. Click Tracking
    • B. Click Quest and then select "Suppy Check"

    image.png.499079b489f186ac716f940e13a9850d.png

     

    12. A Yellow Thumbtack will apear on the map where you need to go next and an Arrow will appear above your head pointing to the next NPC you have to talk with.

    image.png.9b7f56431aea07f634b88a96f0c3c028.png    image.png

    13. After you finish the quest you'll be level 5 and recieve some adena, experience and a beginner armor set (In this case a wooden light armor set for a fighter and a leather robe set for a mystic).

    image.png.53425f77f32ea7b2a8ac2ca28a73d154.png     image.png.a3af4290742b33a4b7aca34b63c48dc8.png

     image.png.ec7bfa902cfbad18497017262c7e3f0a.png                                                                image.png.9eabf9a716d9d9b1b84ef9f3671881d1.png

    14. If not earn level 6 hunt a bit, maybe Stronghold I. If you are level 6, then go to and talk to he newbie guide and get a shadow weapon if you desire. 

    image.png.7fde117daabb891875f69879d0302b0d.png   image.png.be952195b3007fbde006a108cc5aeec0.png

    15. When you talk to the NEwbie helper you'll recieve some more Soulshot or Spiritshot for begineers. Click "Recieve Apprentice Adventurer's Weapon Exhange Coupn" and you'll recieve 5 of these coupons. 

     

       image.png.58da2ba65e943ffdf996940397425d26.png     image.png.e68f5e172bd2e4ade0e1b079ebec5fd7.png

    16. Talk to the Newbie Guide Again and click "Ask for help with a newbie Item." and then " Use the Weapon warehouse for apprentice adventurers"

    image.png.d3d47cb0998ec506510a89c40eee51d4.png   image.png.ab4ff69e23f022da4a10615e2e316424.png

    17. Choose the weapon you want. These shadow weapon have a time limit. They loose time everytime you equip and unequip them. They loose time if they are equiped. However, they do not loose time if they are unequipped.

    OTHER THINGS TO CONSIDER:

    1st class change quest (cc)

    • You can buy from ALT-B under for 100k

    image.png.0e8976600462d14ddf6fd562ed7d0691.png

    • OR you can do the quest. Rewards for doing the 1st cc quest. Rewards are D-Grade Shadow weapon coupons and some adena and experience

    2nd class change quest

    • You can buy  same place for 3kk
    • OR you can do the 3 separate CC quest, each gives adena and xp, but man are they long. If you don't have a spoiler and aren't thoughtful about where you hunt, you might want to consider these long quest to afford gear. With the great buffs bots don't really care if they are in poor gear.

    3rd class chaneg quesy

    • You can buy same place for 15kk

    RIGHT NOW image.png.918bf4900309fd4da60874b4e0a57bec.png accumulate but don't do anything. I know on some servers with premium you cna buy shadow weapons. 

     

    Enjoy!

  6. Our Alt-B Buffer is available at level 1 at no cost until you reach level 41 at which time the buffs cost 1k ea buff.

    You can set up custom buffs schemes

    image.png.6697389596678964503f2c401cfaf805.png

    When choosing a buff scheme you can buff yourself, your pet, or the whole party. The Pet Tab will not be displayed unless you have have an active pet/summon and likewise the Party Tab will not appear unless you are in a party. 

    image.png.5b91e719ad6899eebe859f3de1f1497d.png 

    Cost to Buff

    When choosing to buff a whole party including all summoned pets. The cost is auto calculated based on the number of party members and pets summoned. For instance if you have only Wind Walk in you custom scheme, it will cost 1k for yourself, 9k to buff a party of 9, and 18k to buff a party of 9 with 9 summons or pets active. My Dwarf Buff scheme cost 32k as you see, so for a party of 9 it will cost 288k. The adena to buff comes from the character requesting the buffs. 

    Buffs not avaialble through ALT-B BUFFER

    Some buffs are not available through ALT-B Buffer in any way. For instance buffs that require a forgotten scroll such as Counter Critical and Dance of Berserker will not be available through the ALT-B Buffer. If you desire these buffs you'll need to level the appropriate character. 

    Common vs. Premium Account Buffs (Bartz server)

    There are some differences in ALT-B buffer depending if you're account is a common or a premium account. The buff duration for common accounts is 2 hours and some buffs are only available through a Premium Account (PA), such as Warsmith, Summon, and combo resist buffs.

    image.png.14b7f05a85aa2fd29d2532177e333b68.png A Premium Account has access to these buffs and ALT-B buffs from a PA last for 3 hours. 

    NOTE: A character on a Premium Account will be able to put these extra PA buffs in their buff scheme. If they buff party mates without a premium account, the duration will remain 2 hours and the characters with a Common Account will not get the Premium Buffs. 

    Common vs. Premium Account Buffs (Kain server)

    Only about half of resists will not be available for non-premium accounts.

    • Thanks 2
  7. This really depends on how a player get their buffs. IF the party is depending on and paying for  ALT-B buffs, THEN mobs and common raidbosses using buff cancel really sucks. One reason, you have to leave combat and wait to be able to access ALT-B buffer again. 

    IF however the party get's their buffs traditionally from supports, THEN the support buffers can usually just rebuff. This still becomes an issue with songs and dances (s/d's)with mp use which requires some thought on either your script or you bot settings. And of course this is an issue if those buffs are from a WC/OL as their buffs take some significant MP.

    So perhaps buff cancel from mobs and RB's shouldn't cancel s/d's 

    Just some of my thoughts

  8. So... a master account allows us 20 accounts. This means I can have a 9 man party and a Spoiler in that party, BUT what are your thoughts for smal hunting parties to help gather mats for the main party?

    I planning on using ALT-B for buffs inculding the ones available with a premium account which include summon , warsmith , and combo resist buffs.  So no direct need for a buffer. 

    my thoughts

    1. BH & WS

     

    2. BH & SE

    3. BH, Mage, & SE

    any other thoughts?

     

  9. Some helpful commands under .cfg and .help

    These commands are also found in ALT-B --> Home tab

    image.png.1f3b92fb65bf988c4009f4ea9b38b209.png

    Let's start a look around.

     

    Type .cfg or use Settings

       image.png.8d333e195677d494c77cd1eb0c7cc234.png

    Language: default english, click the tab and most of your menu's will be displayed in russian. 

    Translit: This will allow what you type transliterated from Latin alphabet to Cyrillic, letter by letter.

    Block Experience: If for some reason you don't want to receive any experience on a character click ON and experience will be blocked

                                             Do not show traders & Disable Buffs Animation both help to minimize demands on your PC.

                                             It is especially useful to turn both setting off on your boxes.

    Do not show traders: you will not see all the players shops in town. This is especially helpful with teleport time when teleporting to Giran. 

    Disable Buffs Animation: turn this off so your PC doesn't have to process all those buff and magic animations on 9 characters. Disabling this feature will help your PC run your bots longer without reboot. 

    Classic Shift: When this setting is off as it is set by default you can hold SHIFT & left click the mouse and a mob and it will show mob info including drops and spoils.

    image.png.502e15c276f8f4d6eff57dfafa61e4f5.png

    Click Drop list and two tabs appear. Common show you drops and spoil the spoils. What's neat is it will show you the expected drop rate based on your level difference with the mob. 

    Follow Party Leader's Dialog: described in detail here. Basically it allows party members to automatically follow the party leaders dialog with NPC's for quest and with Town Gatekeeper's for teleports.

    Follow Party Leader's .town:  When this is on both the Party leader and everyone in party. As long as the full party is not in combat, flagged, have karma, and within range of party leader then the whole party will follow the .town command of the party leader. Turn this feature off on the party leader and the whole party will not follow, or turn it off on individual characters wihtinh the party not to follow. 

    .help or Commands in ALT-B

    Well that wraps up .cfg options now take some time and look at the .help  or  the commands tab in ALT-B when you have some time. 

     

    image.png.77bb9a36a85f2e3a8bb8297024da0ca0.png

  10. First create a Lineage2Toggle Master Account 

    image.thumb.png.15e01ffc2db8e2c0385f6dcbfad5109f.png

    Click Create an Account, Enter an account name which will be public, password, confirm password, and enter a unique email adress for each master account. click the "I'm not a robot" box, and then create an account.

    When you create your Master Account a text file will be downloaded with your account and password titled "Login"

     image.png.bf7471743dc69b9d32895809a78fa0ea.png

    I suggest you save and keep this for future reference. Also if you mistyped your password somehow (I've been there) you'll have a record of what you actually entered and you can change the MA just below the box where you can create an in game account. 

    The Master Account Portal will allow you to create 20 in game accounts. You will be able to increase the limit in multiple ways later on. If for some reason you feel the need to have way more than 20 in-game accounts, you'll need a unique email address for each additional MA. 

    image.png.ecc41273c42501a9459ee24002056c80.png

     To create a Game account click "CREATE GAME ACCOUNT"

    image.png.b20d543c1419304b8288be0c874e27d4.png
     

    After MA creation:

    image.thumb.png.38af1c12d61b61a3b673a5fecd512a09.png

    1. This displays the level of your L2Toggle Master Account Portal. Right now mine is Level 3 and 60%. I have 300 coins or Coins of Luck to distrubute to my in game characters as I choose later on. As your Master Account Portal Levels, you' get access to different rewards and increasing rewards. Right now If I donate 1 EUR, instead of getting 10 coins of luck I'll get a 10% bonus and get 11 coins of luck instead. 

    2. Clicking here takes you back to the Dashboard which is the picture above. Here is displays your last login date, last IP address, and total numbers of game accounts registered to this MAP.

    3. Click here to go to our website at https://lineage2toggle.com/

    4. Click here to go to our Forum at https://community.lineage2toggle.com/

    5. Click here to see Lineage2Toggle Server Statistics inside your MAimage.thumb.png.2c2caefa0272a1ec749aa9c25c996dfb.png

    6. Displays your account name. 

    7. Allows you to change this game account's password.  You'll need to old password, enter the new password, and confirm the new password. 

    8. This is the in-game characters name.

    9. MA account allows you to see every characters personal inventory without having to log into each individual character and wait for log in one at a time. 

    image.png.97475cbdb03bfc1a5bd3ade9800c8554.png

    10. Allows you to access MA services. Both of these services cost 10 coins each. 

    image.png.7ebca23b3e2ec5a1df06924d26ceb9af.png

    We are very excited about the Master Accounts & Master Account Portal and it will see future development and expansion in the future. 

    Lets us know what you think.

  11. Yet another example of promises made and promises delivered. L2Toggle and the development team seeks to make a very retail like Lineage 2 High Five experience, while making running multiple characters easier. 

    As an "ALTERNATIVE" to having a bot use potions such as healing, mana and CP potions you can have our server do it for you so even if you don't bot you can enjoy auto potions. 

    1. hold ALT and press B

    2. under the HOME tab 

     image.png.53cea779f06597d359bd89a1f701300c.png 

    3. Select the Autopotion Tab and you'll see

    image.png.f2c195c9df64be27c49d36d6e961ba29.png

    If you want auto potions to work DO NOT click deactivate, if you do you will deactivate auto potions like so:

     

    Again these buttons show the action that will happen if they are pushed not the current status. So if the tabs says deactivate then the autopotion feature is currently activated. 

    4. enter the % values that you want the potions to CP, HP, & MP and make sure you have the potions in your inventory.

    5. once the CP, HP, or MP drops below the set % for each category it will use the appropraite potion. 

    Tells us what you think.

L2Toggle and the development team seeks to make a very retail like Lineage 2 High Five experience, while making running multiple charcters easier.  We eliminated the ALT-B teleportation system, maintained .town teleportation commands, and made a very creative way to teleport multiple characters whether your multi-boxing or botting infinitely easier. Here's a video and then I'll explain. 

    DESCRIPTION

    Party_teleport.gif.8c419f0b5230ef607ddd9ef97b8cf432.gif

     

    I don't know about you, but I used to HATE selecting gatekeeper and NPC quest dialogue on 9 characters each one at a time. L2Walker used to have a feature that "listened: to the party leader's dialogue with an NPC and followed. On Adrenalin, I used to type directions in party chat, and then the party would follow the directions with the use of a script. Depending on the server, when the bots followed the program's instruction to teleport at the same time, random characters would teleport to the wrong spot and then I'd have to manually teleport  to where I desired. Other times buffers , sword singers, blade dancers, and healers might not teleport at all if they were mid buff or heal when the command was given. Still yet other times, a character might not teleport or follow dialogue selection if they were stuck to far from the NPC because they were either buffing at a distance or stuck behind a wall.

    The Worse situation was sometimes I'd move the party to my farming spot only to find I was missing a party character. The I wasted some time late at night right before i wanted to sleep, or whatever the case may be, and then I'd either have to burn a gate chant, fight my way to the teleport point, or sometimes teleport the party back and start over.  This would infuriate me  I'm sure if I put a random delay in my script I could have fixed the random mis-teleportation issue. 

    Our development team has an amazing solution. You don't need to bot and you don't need to script and the party will automatically follow the  party leader telport choice and this also works when talking to NPC's for quest. 

    How This is Better: 

    • the party members will interrupt buffs, songs, dances, and heals to teleport
      • this does mean if the skill was interrupted and not completed, so the skill will need to be re-cast. Items such as spirit-ore will  be lost, if the cast is interrupted, BUT the party will teleport together!
    • There is a certain range given that the party characters can be away from the Gatekeeper or Quest NPC and it will still follow the Leader teleport and quest dialogue selection. 
    • no more teleporting mishaps due to server lag issues. 
    • no more need to keep adena on every character. The party leader pays the adena fee for all party members. 
    • no scripting required which allows more people to enjoy Lineage2Toggle whether they multi-box are a novice or expert botter.

    How to Use Auto Follow

    The .cfg Follow Party Leader's Dialog setting is set on by default. 

    1. Form a party
    2. Have party follow leader and be near leader when it "talks" for quest or teleport.
    3. Have Party leader choose quest or teleport
    4. Party follows 
    5. It's that simple

    How to Turn Auto Follow Off

    If for some reason you do not want some members of your party to follow the leader's NPC dialogue selection and other's not to follow then you can turn it off. 

        1. type .cfg and this box appears

          image.png.9f6ea81bbe08d17669e17ec5d694437e.png

        2.  Click OFF on image.pngon individual characters, if for some reason you want only certain party members not to follow

                 -If you want all party member not to follow, then turn off this setting on your party leader.

    image.png.031798216bc4f1b16d3a7625620930e0.png 

    This setting is also set on by default. When this is set to on for both the Party leader and everyone in party, as long as the full party is not in combat, flagged, have karma, and within range of party leader then the whole party will follow the .town command of the party leader. Turn this feature off on the party leader and the whole party will not follow, or turn it off on individual characters wihtinh the party not to follow. 

    To stop charcters in your party from following the party leader follow the same steps as with Follow Party Leader's Dialog. 

      Let us know what you think.

  13. Hi fellow Toggle mates!

    We promised to make some aspects of the game less tedious. This is an example of promises made and promises delivered by our development team with the ability to add full element ,150 and then to 300, with only 2 actions.

    Here's how to "CONTROL" this tedious process:

    1. have more than enough element stones in your inventory and the item for full element to be added.

    2. hold down CTRL when you double click the element stone to be added 

    3. select item to add element 

    image.png.0d46ce19b9a8b6c0f7bfd3578aabaaf0.png

    4. confirm

    5. you'll see the screen that says

     image.png.aad57b15f25e4e35cb302fd8c4d8dd2c.png

     

    6.  item reached attribute stone limit and you might have stones left in inventory

    In this case, it took 49 earth stones to add 150 earth element. I only clicked once instead of 49 individual attempts. 

    Enjoy. I added 300 Earth from my 100 Earth crystals the same way and I had 16 left. A full 300 element on my weapon while only waiting for 2 animations. Sweet!

  14. Welcome to the 6th edtion of the Tuesday  Toggle Topic!

    Buffer Evolution

    Lineage2Toggle desires to deliver a retail-like High-Five experience, while at the same time creating something extra special and fun. Our development team continues having numerous discussions about our buffer system. Our guiding principles with buffer development include: make sure every class is still relevant, maintain class balance, make leveling and party design more fun, and create something unique. 

     

    Initial plans: 

    One thought was to limit the buffs available through the ALT-B buffer. However, we thought this would greatly limit the types of players who could enjoy Lineage2Toggle. While Lineage2Toggle is a bot friendly server, we recognize not everyone wants to play or has the ability to run a full party of 9 bots.

    Another discussion was to create a combo buffer system. Our vision was to limit the number of standard support characters required. For example, a standard melee party usually has a Bishop, Warcryer, Bladedancer, Swordsinger, and sometimes a recharger like an Elven Elder or Shilien Elder. With the standard support set-up, a melee party has 4-5 open slots and if a spoiler is desired then 3-4 flexible slots.  

    How would this combo buffer system work? The Prophet, Elven Elder, Shilien Elder, and Warcryer would share all buffs up to and including prophecies such as Chant of Victory, Prophecy of Fire, etc. None of these classes would gain the Overlord’s clan buffs. We figured if you wanted to buff a whole clan you should level an Overlord. The Blade Dancer and Sword Singer would share all songs and dances. 

    Buffer Classes would still maintain some distinctions by not sharing skills, such as Stigma of Shilen, Hex, Recharge unless the retail game allowed them to obtain another buffer classes’s skills.  Additional distinctions become more apparent after the 3rd class change as classes would not share buffs that require a forgotten scroll.  The skills include but are not limited to: Counter Critical, Dance of Berserker, Song of Purification, Lord of Vampire, Blessing of Eva, and Great Fury to name a few. Another distinction we contemplated was limiting skill enchantment to only the skills a character came with originally.

    We were very excited about these possibilities! Now a melee party could require fewer support characters such as a Bladedancer or Swordsinger, a Warcryer or recharger, and a Bishop. Potentially this party set-up allows for 3 support characters and 6 damage dealer slots to fill how you choose.  

     

    Unintended consequences:

    As we continued exploring this idea, we discovered it became more and more complex. How will these changes affect class balance? How will we shut off extra buffs in the Olympiad? How will we handle summoners with their summon party buffs, such as Blessing of Queen, Gift of Seraphim, etc?  Will combo buffers get the Warsmith buffs?  How will we be able to handle and manage the skill tree for the Overlord, Warcryer, Prophet, Elevn Elder, Shilien Elder, Bladedancer, and Swordsinger? 

    We quickly realized this workload and concept was more than we could commit to at this time. Every buffing class will need every other buffing class’s buffs added to their skill tree.That alone is a massive amount of work and development. 

     

    Current Plans:

    We decided to provide an expanded NPC buffer through the ALT-B Buffer. Starting at level 1 it provides all basic buffs, Prophecies such as Chant of Victory, and Combo Buffs such as Improved Movement which will all last for 2 hours. Buffs from the NPC buffer will be free through level 40. At level 41 they cost 1,000 adena each.

     Premium accounts will enjoy extra buffs such as Warsmith, Cat, Unicorn, Combined Resist Buffs and a 3 hour buff duration.

    ncFFVJFTpgnkR3KLNGywZ0ZR5odojxW369Hio9WYDaXRH6ESfmNCzs0kbZfaoftQnXYAXmpp4Ft_LZwXfyGv3CVbDvFYtFW5Qho66uovlpTe3YZg-PYw9qsnZPEchUr3PoyjAV3m

    Buffs from Forgotten Scrolls such as counter critical, dance of berserker, etc. are unavailable from the NPC Buffer. 

    Custom buff schemes can be made in ALT-B. You can name your custom buff schemes and choose whether to buff yourself or the whole party with that buff scheme. 

    Note about premium accounts here. You can have a premium master account where all 20 accounts will be premium, or choose individual accounts to be premium. If the buff scheme on a premium account has premium buffs and buffs his party mates who do not have a premium account, they will not get the premium buffs nor will they get the 3 hour duration. Only the premium accounts in the party will get the premium buffs and 3 hour duration. All other accounts will have the standard ALT-B buffs and 2 hour duration. 

    We hope this helps keep every class relevant, allow flexible party design, maintain more game balance, and help your Lineage2Toggle experience be more fun! 

    Do you have thoughts about the buffing system? Join the discussion at our forum. We’d love to hear from you. 

    For now, I’ll leave you with this quote from Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood, “I'll be back when the week is new. And I'll have more ideas for you. And you'll have things you'll want to talk about. I will, too.”

    I would suggest creating a copy of the system folder and apply this file in the new folder instead. This way You can choose which clients will run with animations.

    I lkie this suggestion because no buff and  nomagic animations is boring to watch on the main client, but I've found I can bot longer when all the clients don't animate the buff/magic skills.
