With the vote rune: x1. Vote for Eternal on the server lists and you get a free rune for 12 hours that adds 25%, which takes every rate to x1. One rune per website account. There is no VIP and no paid rune: the vote is the only way to x1, and it is free.
Level stages
Eternal opens with a level cap and lifts it in stages, on a calendar published in advance.
- Above the current cap, experience slows down sharply, step by step. Adena and drops do not slow down.
- A few levels above the cap there is a hard stop: nobody goes past it until the next stage opens.
- Grades, epic bosses and castles open with the stages, on the same dates.
The exact levels and dates of every stage are published after the beta, once we have timed how fast real players level.
Windows and accounts
- One game window per person.
- No second window, no box.
- One person, one account.
- Account sharing is bannable. We detect it by the PC an account plays on, not by IP address. The steps are a warning, then a 7-day suspension, then a ban of the shared account.
- Up to 3 PCs per account.
- If you need a new one, open a support ticket or ask an admin on Discord, and we free a slot for you.
Buffs
There is no full NPC buffer. Instead, the newbie helper's buffs (Wind Walk, Shield, Haste, Might, Acumen, Empower and the other basic ones) last up to the current stage cap, not only to level 24. No songs, dances or chants: those still come from players. Support classes stay wanted.
Anti-cheat
- We wrote our own anti-cheat for this server. It runs with the game, through our launcher.
- No bots, no macros, no AFK farming, no third-party programs. Adrenaline, L2Tower, L2.NET, L2Walker and tools like them are not allowed.
- An account caught breaking this rule is banned.
Nothing for sale
- No shop, no VIP, no donations, no paid services, no paid cosmetics.
- Services such as a character rename are paid with adena, in the game.
- The team pays for the servers. Nothing you can do with money changes what happens in the game.
A permanent world
Eternal never wipes after the launch. New worlds open only when Eternal has reached its end, and when one of them reaches its own end, it merges into Eternal: characters keep their inventory and warehouse. The full merge rules are published before any merge.
The GM log
Every action our staff take in the game is published on a public log. What the GMs do is on the record. The log opens with the beta.
