Again, thanks for your answers!

Seems like portals are static and opened the whole time during beta testing, will change, and the abyss isn't in beta yet (at least not fully implemented, daeva quest is there ^^).

In the very first trailer I saw climbing is that still ingame? And is that wing flash light thing the lvl up animation (Don't mean that thing which you see when you activate your wings). Could you tell us a bit more about the foliage how it looks feels and stuf like rippeling the water with your wings. That would be awsome thanks in advance you guys are the lifesource we feed on right now xD.

Question

How do you feel about the music changing whenever you step into a building and then when you step out, the previous one restarts? Isn't it tedious and irritating?

Check out spiritmasters forum. I've posted there about questions regarding spiritmaster. Under "My concerns" By Aggero.

Check out chanters forum.

No one knows anything about the Abyss zone atm. I tried to fly to the abyss entrance on top of Berteron fortress but doesn't do anything for me so I am assuming at certain level I will have to do some quest to be attuned to enter abyss. I think killing between factions outside of abyss is just.. plain ganking with out any rewards I believe. If you pvp in abyss you get rankings like pre-bc WoW.

About the siege.. there are castles and fortresses in abyss that guilds can take over, unlike Lineage 2 though there won't be a "scheduled siege time every 2 weeks" or whatever. They said something about it's shedule is 24 hours but I am not sure if they were saying castles/fortresses in abyss can be attacked 24/7, or 24 hours after new guild took over the fortress, or there is a scheduled reset timer everyday like how WoW's level 70 heroic instances gets reset everyday at scheduled time.

Sounds pretty much like a system to commision crafters to make stuff for you, which I think is pretty neat .

1 thing that we don't know EXACTLY at this time is if it's actually from players or not, the request type of quests. These types of quests can be obtained, only (maybe not, since I haven't been to every towns and places in this game yet) from profession masters in Elysium and Pandemonium, I was unable to check if these quests were indeed from players or just random crap given from the profession masters to give players some works to do for exp. Also..... sorry but I can't remember whether the profession master also had this option to add the request for crafted items or not. :\ I will check it out tonight once server is up.

whoops, i completely missed the player reference...

thanks! it seems odd (and kind of impractical) to have a quest initiated by another player... i would wager this is an NPC related quest (from the profession masters)... if thats the case, then my original response stands...

I have an other question:

Are mobs moving around their spot, or just standing in one place, waitin for an attack?

Do they have aggro-circles?

In a chinese article theyve mentioned Self-revival stones. How common drop they are? (hope its really-really-really rare), coz it could ruin Cleric and other classes with rez skills.

Thank you!

Also, id like to ask about Death Penaulty.

How long does it last and what stats does it modify/decrease?

[Midgarsormr]

My questions seem to get heavily ignored -.-,

Question

How do you feel about the music changing whenever you step into a building and then when you step out, the previous one restarts? Isn't it tedious and irritating?

Edit: Oh... lol, never mind.

You asked same question on general forum, so I replied there instead.

Question for your Irisviel or any other that is in the korean beta test.

I have seen alot of people complaining about poor server stability, can you comment on how the servers performed between CBT1 and CBT2?

Also, do you have any idea of how many concurrent users there are?

[Irisviel]

I wasn't in closed beta 1 so I have no idea. I am not sure how many they picked for closed beta 1 but closed beta 2 is filled with 7k randomly chosen(i am in this group), closed beta 1 testers + their friends. I'd say around 12k-15k roughly? If they had 4k people for closed beta 1 then 4k people had invitation to bring in their friends.

[ka-kar]

Thanks Irisviel, is there just one server up at the moment or is there several to choose from?

[shulei]

Many thanks for sharing all the info!

I'd be curious to know how Clerics are doing in CB2, if you find out more about them
