CT 2.3 Boss Changes

Elmar has posted on EllieBelly.net an interesting article regarding CT 2.3 Epic Boss changes:

• Zaken
• Commander in Chief Diyad, the Epic Boss in the Seed of Destruction
• Immortal King Equimus
• Beleth

I got ElliBelly's permission to translate it for our greek blog, so here are the changes in greek.

Mini Search Engine Added

Hello all,

After having difficulties locating posts in our *own* blog (oh my..), we decided to add a mini search engine on the right hand side of this page. I hope you too find it useful.

An alternative way to locate a post is using the "blog labels" (e.g. game info, humor, etc) which can be found below the mini search engine.

Now forget about the labels and check the mini search engine - it's actually helpful!

GM @ Teon (again!)

Chryssa told me that a GM was seen yesterday!!

.. of course there was lots of banning too.

.... followed by heros cursing each other for unknown reasons ;-)

Rune @ Teon

It seems that ITT (Unforgiven) still holds Rune, after this week's siege.

Usernames and character names

Trivia on naming: 

  A user name can be the same as a character name.

Test:

Created (by mistake) a character named after my account.

Question:

Can you have the same character name in two different servers?

 

 

Additional info for computer scientists (all others please don't read):

Accounts and characters are probably stored in different database tables. Do you think the character name is the primary key? Alternatively, there might be some kind of surrogate key, e.g. a sequence number. It is an MS SQL Server, isn't it? About a year ago Sofia deleted a character named oytis and she has now re-created a new one with the same name. Thus either the character name is not a primary key, or the characters are indeed deleted and not de-activated.

X-mas agathions

One of the possible Santa presents is this plush-looking agathion. It is the cutest little creature!





I do not know the actual chance of getting this present, but it seems very slim. Some people suggest that hitting an NPC overnight helps (force-attack, make sure you are outside a peace zone).

Lady Equistrius (who I do not know) was my model for the pictures, and a kind dark elf named Introspect demonstrated the agathion skill. Soooo cute (the agathion, not the dark elf)!

The description of this event, and the design of the agathion, make me think that there are new people in NC Soft's Lineage II team!


PS Chryssa had told me that the agathions (try to) sing x-mas carols, but I guess she was pulling my leg!
