DIMENSIONAL RIFTS, DRAGONS AND
THE DEVIL’S ISLE IN LINEAGE II
With the latest free expansion for
Lineage II: Gracia Part 2, there have been several additions for players to
experience increasingly rich game content. Specifically, two new areas have been
added for a wide range of players including three new Pailaka zones and one new
Kamaloka zone. All of these new instances offer a wide range of game play, for
both grouped and solo players, which will challenge both their fighting prowess
and strategic thinking to overcome obstacles along the way.
Here’s what players have to look
forward to in this latest update:
Pailaka
The new Pailaka zones offer players
a one-time, solo experience in three separate instances. Areas to explore
include ancient Elven temples taken over by powerful elemental spirits, a sunken
shipwreck with valuable cargo aboard and investigating the Varka Silenos
Barracks and uncovering a mystery surrounding a powerful weapon they are
attempting to harness. Players will always have to be on guard in these exciting
new regions. Through each one of the Pailaka instances, players will experience
fierce battles, both of mind and might. To the victors go great rewards — XP
and SP; to the fallen only a desire to return and conquer the enemies that lie
within. Players have to remember, time is against them, so they have to think
fast and act even faster!
Level 36-42 Pailaka – Forgotten
Temple
The Forgotten Temple was once a
magical place where Elves used the volatile magic of both fire and water to
suppress the Orcs. However, the delicate balance was shattered due to neglect of
the temple and the instability of the Kamaloka dimension. Now the Elves are
being threatened by a mysterious creature that has taken control and holds power
over both fire and water elements. Players must venture in, solve the mystery
behind who is controlling these elements for evil, and defeat them.
Level 61-67 Pailaka – Devil’s
Isle
A ship carrying important cargo sank
in the area of Devil’s Isle. Players must find the wreck and recover the
valuable cargo. Then they must defeat other creatures attempting to recover the
cargo, and find their way through the maze- like labyrinth to the goal before
their enemies do!
Level 73-77 – Pailaka Varka
Silenos Barracks
After discovering that the Varka
Silenos are attempting to use a dragon as a weapon, players must battle their
way into the Varka Silenos Barracks. Once in, they must get to the bottom of the
conspiracy, fight through waves of troops, and ultimately defeat the Varka
Silenos leader and decide the fate of the dragon.
Each of the instances in Pailaka
represents distinct challenges for players that will truly test both their
visceral and cerebral skills. Players will not be able to rely solely on their
weapon or ingenuity to guide them through these instances! Grit and
determination are keys to unlocking the riches that await players at the end of
each Pailaka.
Kamaloka
A new Kamaloka has also been
discovered in the world of Lineage 2 that players from level 24 to 85 enter at
their own risk. Kamaloka – Labyrinth of the Abyss is a dimensional rift that,
once a day, players can venture into with a party and battle with increasingly
hostile enemies for the promise of riches and glory. Players must fend off waves
of creatures and fight their way upward through platforms of monsters as they
progress to battle the boss that has taken over the dimensional rift. But
adventurers must be quick! Access to this Kamaloka only lasts for a short time,
so the battles must be fast and fierce if they want to ascend to the top
platform to fight the final boss.
