Short bits of notes and tips gathered from shoutbox and reading the EP2 updates. With a lot of bugs in game, they will be maintenance patches so be flexible. What happens today may be tomorrows bug. This is just to give you stuff that is not listed on patch notes.

1. NightShadow is a new character. NightShadow will start at Level 90, but you must have a level 100 character to start one. Mandatory level of level 100 may be changed later.

What armor, weapons, and skills are not noted till game starts. There will not be an additional character slot, so if you have 4 characters on your account, you'll have to delete one of them. Also only 1 NightShadow per account is allowed. They will also start with random armor that you'll need to unseal as well as a weapon. We'll have the skill guide up and running soon! Also the Night Shadow class starts with 1 active, 1 soul drain, 2 soul use and 4 passive skills. And you do get a dowry too, or start up money and stuff.

In a matter of speaking, making a nightshadow will have the same requirements as making a Phoenix, that is having one character on your account at level 100. Of course, there was this big hype on the Phoenix system as such. But then after, I read and made a phoneix, character, there was noting special about it, except for the fiery helm you could meld to your character and the phoenix pet pill to make your pet with stripes. In other words, after level 100, your character was just another "toon."

Then as a fact of life, people who make a nightshadow and make level 140 quickly will be the ones with money to buy ap, to buy the xpb you will need. But otherwise, slow and steady is the course for me, lol.

2. Level cap, has been confirmed by GMOgreKing to be 140+ only for entrance to the new land. Also, new skills will be for the high levels too. So if you are level 1 - 100 do not even worry about EP2. I am L127 RK and it is out of my reach. But research questions for wiki here. Otherwise, I would not care from what I read, lol.

3. OgreKing also stated during a shout box session that there will be some changes to help folks level faster. He didn't go into details, but my guess will be something item mall related. - lnfinity

4. There will be a series of 5 quests for the 140+ characters to complete to even access the map, which will branch off the Egeha Map.

5. There is a Raid event that will be held once a week for characters levels 160+. A minimum of 2 up to a maximum of 24 players may participate in the Raid.

6. Both the new Affinity System AND the new Crafting System can only be accessed by characters in the new map, thus 140+.

7. It will be impossible to use recall to pull someone to the new map.

8. There are more items that you can sell now. RoP is one of them. Other items, such as PRS have the weight at 0 now. If you know what is tradeable and was not before list here or let me know in forum.

9. When you arrive in Randol, get a neat white, twirling band now. Again, just an effect.

10. This one is nice. When I use my double bash, I can put pointer over the icon and see in Real Time seconds , how much time is left, before i can use the buff again.

11. One bug, was I was in party and got dc from eghea tower. When i came back, just the remnants of the party as seen by 4 squares indicating dead people was still on my screen. I quit game and logged in, and the 4 squares in the party were still there. This will be fixed later on, but FYI, after the emergency patch, the bug was still there.

12. Rogue is supposed to have higher HR now

13. If each class looks at their Class Master, the new skills are listed. Again, many are for the high level players which in this case in Sarissa, only about maybe 50 would worry about them, Again, only 13 players of 140+ in Sarissa.

14. When NS is started you get money and other stuff to start up with. It was not noted anywhere. Today, 19 Nov 09, I deleted one character to make a NS. Then when I do get one, I will quickly document with ss too, and find out what it does and make short section for it.

15. TRIVIA - New window for when you die and have the resurrection scroll on. Has an automatic timer, so if you do not choose, it will use the rez scroll and send you to starting point.

16. Lich are located on the 9th floor of Eghea in tower. I could rc people in tower, but not if the were outside. This was done during party mode now.

17. To get NS armor and weapons, they are dropped by mobs, for anyone killing them. As usual, a list will have to be made of who, what , where also.

18. Again, most of stuff is for level 140+, so I will not document stuff. Well, when i make it there, I will, lol.
