Promise Server

Chronicle II: Age of Splendor

Summary

The Promise server is a Lineage II 1x Private Server hosting the Chronicle II: Age of Splendor expansion created with the sole purpose of maintaining a legacy alive for this specific version of the game, it is a rare expansion that was often overlooked by the much more succesful Chronicle III: Rise of Darkness and onwards. However, this specific expansion is actually the very last one where the game encourages the player to actually party up with other players from the very beginning while maintaining for the most part the core gameplay seem in the venerable Chronicle I: Harbingers of War mostly untouched adding just some nice Quality of Life improvements and addition of new areas and territories to hunt on keeping its original approach in fostering community and cooperative play between all players.

At a glance...

Refined Gameplay

Age of Splendor builds on the foundation of Harbingers of War extending the Aden territory to include all the Innadril peninsula and the Water City of Heine. It also introduces the new dungeons with underwater mechanics Garden of Eva and Devil's Isle, in addition to this the Tower of Insolence upper floors are completed allowing players to face the mighty Baium at the top of the tower. Other additions include B grade gear equipment, Henna Dyes, Special Abilities (SA's) for weapons, Quality of Life enhancements such as Macro, Private Workshop among others. Please take a look at the original patch notes for a refresher of everything this chronicle includes.

Offline Trading

While not exactly part of the original game, this specific QoL enhancement is very popular and requested as well as necessary for the correct distribution of resources in game, the system will allow you to buy an offline pass and set up your own shop for buying/selling items as well as providing Crafting Workshop services, earning money in a passive way while at the same time you are playing with your main character.

Eternal Museum

The server will run with the same care and similar philosophy as our other projects as an eternal Museum, providing an environment as close as possible to the original retail game at the time of release, it is meant to be a showcase of the original game for new players wanting to discover Lineage II as well as seasoned veterans wanting to revisit the game in it's original essence. This is a very long-term project as the cost for running an old game like this are almost non-existant these days.

Platform Resilience

Being a 1x server is of key importance everything is running as intended so we will be using the battletested PTS platform, where all the game mechanics including the original C2 Geodata and Innadril areas, as well as new game systems introduced in C2 such as the Manor, Monster Derby, Treasure Chests, etc. are working as intended. In addition to the in-game systems, daily backups across a distributed network provides stability for the project, should any problem arise, the game data will be safe offsite.

A charming low-level adventure at your own pace... coming very soon!!
