Tamed Black Elders.

Today GodOfMagic (also known as Briel, HelloKitty) tamed 4 black elders (Caspa, Sema, Baltuzar, Merkyor) and a Necromancer. And then, he released some of them and mainland town has turned into a mess. Some people managed to kill the necromancer, but some people heal it and someone even velox it over and over. Necromancer is level 40, with 350 hp and 350 mp. His lightening took me about 30hp. Some people died, because they are not bewared that a necromancer would come up from nowhere in town.

The server has been down for awhile. Some players such as BlueTree lost her +6 katana for no reason after server crash. If anyone also lost item please email admin, but the chances of getting it back is minimal.

New update you can stack gems, scrolls and potion together to save space and storage cost. However, sometimes you will lose all but one item in stack because of a bug.

You cannot create a new account now. Many potential customers are complaining about it.

New NPC allow you to teleport between towns.

The crashing bug has been fixed and a small update followed. New NPC Steve, Stanley, Lucas can teleport you between a few fixed destination. For example, a trip from Island to mainland is 1500 adena. It is more expensive than taking the boat, but you can arrive there instantly. Currently NCSOft only has the korean text, but I have translated to an English version. Click here to download it and extract this zip acheive into /text directory under your Lineage folder.

Playable Index: [6] unstable lag

February 1

When you walk into some specific points, your character will crash and you can't login to that character anymore. This bug appears after the server down for 4 hours yesterday. To avoid having you character crash, avoid walking behind Luth, old karim place, and the route between Pandora and Dorin. Also using verr scroll will make you crash as you go back to town as well.
