Lineage II Team Makes Changes to Inferno Event

The Eva's Inferno event may have started on Aug. 25, but a number of changes were made to the event during yesterday's maintenance. The first change affects when event periods begin on NA and EU servers. The team has also "extended the period for which you can collect the rewards on day 10 and 14 to 24 hours."

Lastly, player feedback has led the team to change the rewards for days 10 and 14. Several scroll rewards from chests for those days were removed and one new reward has been introduced for the event. You can find the full list of changes in the announcement after the jump.

We have made several changes to the way that the event works during today’s maintenance.

The first thing that you will notice is that the event periods will now begin at 3 am CDT for US servers and 2am BST for EU servers. This is when the event will reset every day instead of at the same time for each server every day. For the US servers, this means that 1am PDT / 3am CDT / 4am EDT / 8am GMT / 9am BST is your reset time. For EU servers it is 6pm PDT / 8pm CDT / 9pm EDT / 1am GMT / 2am BST.

In addition to the time zone changes, we have extended the period for which you can collect the rewards on day 10 and 14 to 24 hours. Once your server has reached the blessing period, you will now have 24 hours to visit Jack Sage and retrieve your reward so that players who might not be awake or able to collect the reward right away will all be able to receive rewards on these days.

Lastly, the rewards for Day 10 and 14 have been changed due to player feedback on the event. We have introduced a new reward to the event and removed several scroll rewards from the chests for day 10 and 14. On Day 10, all chests will contain Vitality Replenishing Potions (Yes, that was plural!) and our new reward, a 5 hour duration Rune of SP 30%. When you open the chest for Day 10, the rune will activate and the timer will start counting down so you will not want to open the chest until you are absolutely ready to begin using the Rune of SP. The Rune of SP 30% is not tradable.

Day 14 chests will now contain a 5 hour Rune of Experience Points 50% and a 5 hour Rune of SP 50%. Similar to the Day 10 rune, the timer for these runes will begin as soon as you open the chest. It will not be possible to stop the timer once the chest has been opened so make sure you are ready to begin using the runes when you open the chest. Every chest will contain the same rewards so you will know exactly what is inside. These runes are not tradable.

The following rewards that were initially mentioned on the Event page are no longer available: Experience Rune 30% (This has been replaced with the 50% variety), transformation scrolls, several buff scrolls. All of these rewards have been replaced with extra vitality potions, more potent experience runes, and the new SP increasing rune.

We hope that all of these changes will make the event much more enjoyable for all of our players and we are grateful for all of your feedback that you have provided.
