Community Rules and Fair Play in Lineage II

Comfortable play in Lineage II: agreements and common sense

Server rules always come first: below is not a replacement for administration, but advice that helps you and others enjoy the world.

Player relationships

Rage in chat rarely improves your loot, but it burns reputation fast. Insults, trade scams, and deliberate group sabotage usually mean people simply stop playing with you — in an MMORPG that costs more than any item.

If you are angry after a death, take it out on mobs, not a random chat partner — tomorrow they might be the one who gets your group onto an epic.

Inventory and survival

Keep a return scroll handy: it saves time and nerves when the way back is blocked or you run out of resources.

Stock different potions and consumables — not only “for bosses,” but for moments when the healer cannot reach you in time.

Behaviour guidelines

1. Mutual help. Explain mechanics to newcomers when you know them; do not demand instant payment — knowledge comes back in other ways.

2. Honest trade. Check the trade window, do not rush your partner, do not mask an item’s price with a fake “for quest” note.

3. Party. If you agreed on a role — stick to it. If you must leave the route, warn the party.

4. PvP and PK. Consider karma and clan relations; “just testing damage” on a neutral player without agreement is a bad idea.

5. Reports. If you see a rules violation, use official channels instead of stirring drama in global chat.

The bottom line: the calmer you communicate, the longer you stay in the game for enjoyment, not habit. Staff will punish charter violations — a random insult from another player can stick with you for a long time without any ban.
