The Longest L....

In September of 1998 a new game came out that would change the world of gaming. Lineage. This game released world wide on September 3rd 1998 changing the lives of many of us and forever making its mark. This game paved its way into our hearts with its addicting grind and slow paced progress that felt hard earned and very balanced.

In July of 2009, Zajako was messing around with an open source emulator for Lineage, trying to help make content for another private server that he was playing called Dlirk. At the time Dlirk became unresponsive in game and wouldn’t respond to attempts to contact him, so Zajako just kept tinkering with the code and experimenting with adding new content and features that would make the game fresh and new. Many of his friends from other private servers were very interested and wanted to try to play it. Soon after, there was a following and Zajako created a website for it and began opening it up to the general public.

As it was a hobby project and Zajako was a fan of both Lineage 1 and Lineage 2, he set about adding content from Lineage 2 to the Lineage 1 engine as a fun way to create the Lineage 2 that most avid Lineage 1 players wanted to play but did not adapt well to the 3D engine of Lineage 2. Thus Lineage1.5 was born.

After many years of growth and being noticed some legal issues came into play with one of the hosts for the Lineage1.5 website. As a precaution the game was renamed to L1.5 and many other changes were made to the site and game. Soon after the direction of the game greatly changed and while the content was becoming more and more custom and less Lineage (1 or 2) based, the branding was well established, so it was not further renamed.

Years later Lineage 1 was becoming less and less profitable for NCSoft in most of the world, and they shuttered their doors on the NA servers (which also served Europe, Australia, South America and pretty much all other English dominated markets) thus ending Depardieu, Ken Rauhel, and Lands of Aden servers on June 29th 2011.

Total time for Depardieu the first Lineage 1 NA server resulted in 4682 days or 12 years, 9 months and 26 days.

11 years later…

L1.5 is still up, still releasing new content and still thriving on donation based income! We’ve modernized the game to support multiple play styles and provide ways for those who can’t play full time to still make progress. Invented new and improved features that were never dreamed possible for a game like this. And even made a browser based client that can provide ways to connect and interact from nearly any modern browser. During this time we’ve never wiped the server and have only performed 1 rollback to facilitate an EPIC April Fools joke early in the server’s life.

At the time of writing this article, L1.5 has been up for 4748 days or 13 years! (See here)

This makes us the Longest L!!!.. Well in the NA markets (and most of the english speaking world). In Korea Lineage 1 is still thriving and releasing new content 24 years after it was created, which is something no other mmorpg can yet say!

Limited Edition "L1.5 13th Anniversary Special" NFTs

When I said we modernized the game, it should have been modernizing, as we’re never done! The current modern world thing going on is crypto of course. NFT or non-fungible tokens have been taking the world by storm the past few years and while most of them seem to be gimmicky or don’t really serve a purpose, that’s not the case here.

These NFTs will provide passive boosts to your characters in game if you link your crypto wallet (currently limited to MetaMask wallets, more will be supported in the future) to your account via the page here: https://www.l15server.com/crypto/

Once linked the server will be able to see the NFTs in your wallet and provide the bonuses for each NFT that is affiliated with L1.5.

NFTs can be traded on public markets like OpenSea for crypto currencies like Etherium. Allowing you to buy or sell the NFTs and collect them all. Also these NFT bonuses stack, making it so that you can get even more bonuses by collecting more than one.

Whether you hold and get boosted by the NFT, buy more NFTs or sell to make money off of the NFT is up to you, as the NFT marketplace is controlled by the community and any NFT in your wallet is yours to do with as you please.

Tutorials for setting up MetaMask and linking to the server will be provided in the near future.

You can see the L1.5 13th Anniversary Special Collection here: https://opensea.io/collection/l15-13years

L1.5 Badge System

The classic badge system has been opened back up for use. This system will see updates in the future, however you can use it right away with the url:

• https://www.l15server.com/banner/YourCharacterName/

You must change YourCharacterName to your character’s name. If it is blank this is because you have it disabled in the Site’s Options (located under Account > Options).

You can disable it, or limit the information shown here by going to those options and changing them.

These banners will currently not work for some of the newer classes as they were made many years ago. This too will be updated to support all the classes and some new background options will be added as well. These urls can be treated as an image url and if it is used correctly by whatever site you embed it on, it will be updated and kept fresh with your current status/stats.

RealTime Events

During the later half of July and the month of August (2022) there will be in game and discord events. These events will happen as Zajako has time to facilate them and will usually be given notice via discord / twitter and or in game announcements. These games will have rewards ranging from items in the game to even chances at some of the limited edition NFTs. Here is a list of possible RealTime events:

• GM Spawn Events (in the Event Arena)
• Find the GM Events (Zajako hides somewhere in game and the first ones to find him get a prize
• Find the Item Events (An item is spawned or placed on the ground somewhere in game and the first one to find it gets the prize)
• L1.5 Triva ( Questions about the game will be asked, prizes awarded to the ones who get correct answers )

L1.5 Arcade

One mini game isn’t enough for such a momentous occasion! So I thought, “why not bring them all back!”. Thus the L1.5 Arcade! Its a list of all the major mini games created throughout the years for L1.5. Ranging from the old gift coin wheel (not quite the original, but pretty close) to the latest Heroes of the Forest mini game released last year.

These mini games have been reset and readied for this event and have some new prizes that are unique to this anniversary event.

There are even some NFT Prizes in each of the prize pools for nearly all of the games! These NFT Prizes are very limited and don’t reset with each inventory reset so once they are gone, they are gone!

Because there are so many mini games the free plays/spins/etc are randomized. Every hour each character logged into the game will randomly get free plays/spins for the games. It rolls a chance for each mini game so you may not always get one but sometimes you may get 2 or 3 or more. Just stay logged into the game every hour to get these free chances to win prizes. If you want more chances, you’re always welcome to donate and will be given gift coins as a way of thanking you for your support, these can be used to continue playing the games.

I’m very excited to celebrate this with everyone of the L1.5 players and I plan to do several live events throughout the summer. This post however is focused on just one part of the event, the donation event.

Increased GC Rate

New Hunting Grounds - The Devil's Blade

Captain Zaken was know for being a Legendary Pirate, feared by his sword skills and by his greed. His dogged pursuit of treasure led him all around the world and eventually settling on Devil’s Isle. His increasingly eccentric behavior caused him to lose the confidence of his crew, and they marooned him there.

In despair, Zaken turned to the forces of darkness, who gave him the power to kill and imprison the souls of all of those who betrayed him. He used these cursed souls over the ages to repair his ancient and legendary ship The Devil’s Blade.

Finally free of Devils Isle after many centuries of patience and planning he has set sail to Talking Island to recover the treasures he and his crew have buried over the years.

How to get there

The new hunting grounds located at the Eastern Docks of Talking Island. You can teleport to the docks from the game’s map system under Talking Island, then click the Devil’s Blade in the lower right corner of the map. You can then talk to the NPC named Ruth to teleport into the first deck.

This hunting zone is for Tier 5 characters and above and should be moderately challenging.

New Treasure Map System

Zaken’s purpose for coming to Talking Island is to retrieve his long lost treasure, so naturally with it being buried all across Talking Island, there were maps drawn up for where his crew buried it all. When hunting on the Devil’s Blade you will come across 3 different types of maps that are carried by the crew. They are as follows (Dodgy, Suspicious and Ancient Maps):

Upon opening one of these maps, it will turn into an Opened Map:

Double clicking an opened map will provide you coordinates on the Remastered Talking Island map. You can get there via the in game map system. If you goto the coordinates specified match where you are standing, when you double click the opened map, you’ll unearth a treasure chest of matching rarity. You can see where your current coordinates are by looking in the bottom left of the screen above the exp bar. The chests you can dig up are as follows:

These chests are locked and require a Pirate’s Key that is obtainable from pirates on the devil’s blade to unlock:

Once unlocked the chests become unlocked and usable to obtain Aztec Gold Coins to use for the T6 quest:

Tier 6 Released!!

Zaken’s secret to immortality and power is related to concentrations of Mystical Ore that he dug up on Devil’s Isle centuries ago when he was still mortal. You can take advantage of this power too to forge a Revitalized Destiny and become Tier 6.

Tier 6 Requirements

• Have Revitalized Destiny - T6
• Main class level 110+
• Sub class level 100+
• Second Sub class level 90+

Tier 6 Benefits

• Standard PvP Physical damage increased by 130% (+20% from T5)
• Standard PvE Physical damage increased by 250% (+50% from T5)
• Magic Heal Amount increased by 120% (+20% from T5)
• Standard Magic Damage boosted by 140% (+30% from T5)
• New Teleport Animations for Tier 6
• Resets Omega Elixir uses to allow gaining more omegas by leveling up classes

Tier 6 Penalties

Upon becoming Tier 6, your main, sub and secondary sub will be de-leveled to level 1 and the exp penalty for leveling up is further increased to slow down exp gains.

Tier 6 Quest

Bellamy the quest npc is located on the East Talking Island Docks near the Devil’s Blade. You can talk to him to craft the required materials to create the Revitalized Destiny. The crafting recipe is a two part process. First you must purify Mystical Ore into Mystical Shards. After that, you must merge the Mystical Shards into the Revitalized Destiny. To do this Bellamy requires Aztec Gold Coins and lots of Stolen Whiskey to keep him focused.

Mystical Ore - T6 - The base item for crafting Mystical Shards. These can be found in the barrels in the Devil’s Blade.

Mystical Shard - T6 - The base item for crafting Revitalized Destiny. These are created using Mystical Shards.

Revitalized Destiny - T6 - This item is required to tier up to tier 6. You can use it with the help of Bellamy on the East Talking Island Docks.

Stolen Whiskey - Bellamy claims he works best after having a drink or ten. So he requires lots of whiskey to help you process your Mystical ores and merge Mystical Shards. You can get these from pirates on the Devil’s Blade.

Aztec Gold Coin - Certain properties of these ancient golden coins allow them to be used as a catalyst to purify or fuse mystical ore and shards. They are part of Zaken’s lost treasure buried throughout Talking Island. They can be unearthed via the treasure map system.

New Multi-Phase Boss Fight - Zaken

Defending the Devil’s Blade you’ll find Zaken and his first mate Anne Bonny. These forminal bosses will flee after you defeat them on each floor. Zaken gets stronger and stronger the deeper into the ship he goes and brings Anne Bonny with him every time he changes floors.

Zaken’s Spinning Blades - T6 - A skill that triggers a buff that causes zaken’s swords to assist you by increasing your damage by 50%.

Zaken’s Dual Blades - XR - Zaken’s trusty dual swords that he carries everywhere.

Zaken’s Captain Hat - XR - Zaken’s Trusty Pirate Hat

Zaken’s Heart Stone - XR - The heart stone that Zaken carries strapped to his chest at all times. It is said to be a reminder of his long lost lover that surely must have died centuries ago.

Easter is once again on the brink of ruin! Tired of the tyranny of of the Bunny King and Queen, A Ultra Cool Bunny has rose up in the background rallying any bunny that will listen to it (Being pretty cool, it wasn’t hard to get a lot of bunnies!) to take over easter! They raided the stash of Easter eggs and sent them flying all over Talking Island.

Event Details

You are tasked with the goal of hunting the the bunnies of Talking Island and getting the eggs back! They can drop different colored Easter eggs that are worth different amounts of points. These points can be turned in by expanding the event menu on the right and choosing "Turn In Items". It will then consume all Easter Egg items (for this event) and reward you with points and items you have earned by accumulating those points. Additionally it will reward you randomly with buffs according to the eggs you turned in. These Buffs stack with each other and themselves, allowing you to increase the duration. Furthermore the buffs save when you log out and will restore themselves when you log back in.

Point Prize List

To view the prize list for the event you can click here: Easter Points Prize List

Easter Blessing Buffs

These buffs are obtained randomly when turning in easter items. They are saved when you logout and the timers stack when turning in. You can also get these buffs from using the Mystery Easter Candy (mentioned later in this post), however the candy will not increase your buff timer if over one hour, while the turn in bonus will.

Bunny Egg Blessing - Green: This buff adds +10 Battlegrounds PvP Defence

Bunny Egg Blessing - Blue: This buff adds +10 Battlegrounds PvP Damage

Bunny Egg Blessing - Red: This buff adds +1 Point for each Event Point item turned in

Bunny Egg Blessing - Purple: This buff adds +10 Battlegrounds PvP Base Damage

2022 Bunny Loyalty Gear

So every year, the Bunny gear is rolled out with fresher and newer versions. This year is no different! You can craft this gear using the Frintezza’s Seamstress npc located in SKT and Aden.You can craft the base bunny items using materials gained from hunting on Talking Island. These base items can then be used to craft or be upgraded to loyalty items, using Easter Loyalty Seal - 2022. You can get these seals during the event from Ives’ shop. Here are some major changes in the Loyalty Bunny items this year:

• All new loyalty gear (except the golden egg jewel) has 45 soul levels
• Levels 31- 45 give increased amounts of PEN/RES for each item
• Levels 31- 45 DO NOT require Limit Breaks to level up.

So acquiring this set would be helpful for pvp in the battlegrounds zones, which most of this event takes place in! Here is the list of Loyalty Items added this year, click on them for more details:

Event Items

Mystery Easter Candy - This candy when consumed gives you a random Bunny Egg Blessing. It will not increase the buff timer beyond the 1 hour it gives. If your buff timer for the buff it gives is less than one hour, it will become 1 hour. If it is more than one hour, it will not change it. You can use this item as many times as you would like until you get the desired bunny buff. Just try not to get an upset tummy! Ives has these in his shop for those interested!

Easter Loyalty Seal - 2022 - This item can be used to upgrade base bunny equipment into 2022 Loyalty bunny equipment that can be leveled up and has loads of benefits. You can get these from Ives.

Bunny Bag - 2022 - This bag contains a random material to craft bunny gear. It also has a chance to give a Mystery Easter Candy. These can be obtained by turning in points or directly from Ives’ shop.

Green Easter Egg - This Easter egg is dropped by the bunnies on Talking Island. It rewards you with one point and can trigger the Green Easter Blessing Buff.

Blue Easter Egg - This Easter egg is dropped by the bunnies on Talking Island. It rewards you with two points and can trigger the Blue Easter Blessing Buff.
