Ranking Update Time

La2-Favorite Freya is a server based on the Freya chronicle, featuring a Dynamic Rates (DR) system: experience and drop rates increase or decrease depending on the in-game situation. The project is focused on PvP and solo play, complemented by a reset system that allows gradual improvement of character parameters. The authors preserve the classic structure of the Freya chronicle while adding new locations, quests for top-tier armor with stats balanced for the chronicle, additional mobs and raid bosses, as well as new spots for territory control. New sets, wings, and cloaks are purely decorative textures with no non-standard stats; all equipment is obtained through regular gameplay. Enchanting is handled through a dynamic chance that gradually decreases, with a maximum of +16. The Olympiad is limited to one account per IP. The Noblesse quest has been replaced with purchasing an item for adena via Alt+B, and subclasses are available without a quest (maximum of three, levels 40-75). The server features offline trading, an item broker, gear visualization, shops and teleports via Alt+B, as well as Mammon functions. Raid bosses drop Raid Coin currency, which can be exchanged for rare items, and a commission shop is available for selling surplus drops and crafting materials. The server includes the Dark Brotherhood, Golden Order, and Thieves' Guild guilds, each with its own bonuses, as well as the Football and Labyrinth events.

Chronicles: Freya

The cursed-world | Superion server offers gameplay on the Superion chronicles with a x50 rate. The launch took place on December 20, 2024, at 19:00. The Superion update centers on a storyline about a mysterious flying ship belonging to the race of giants, accessible through the Palace of Empress Ramona. Here, a party of characters level 115 and above must fight Ramona and destroy the Magic Device within 6 minutes to obtain the key to the ship; rare accessories and synthesis materials drop as rewards. Also available is the Superion Battle Fortress, an instanced zone for characters above level 115, where players can obtain pages of the giants' ancient scriptures to master the Forgotten Power. Among the new additions are the Silver Seed Bracelet, which boosts offensive stats, Elemental Orbs for combining gemstones, and a new Amber stone that increases equipment defense and attack. The tattoo system has been expanded up to level 30 and now includes the Giants' Seal effect, with the total bonus reaching +30% damage. Classes have also been reworked: Isa Spellsingers gained skills that affect the entire party, while Aegis Healers received the ultimate skill "Persuasion of Light".

Lineage35 is an Interlude chronicle server in the mid-rate category. Characters start with top-tier NG gear and a small amount of starting capital; the starting location offers all basic services, including a buffer and a GM shop. The buffer provides a standard set of buffs with profile saving and the ability to buff your pet: 40 slots for buffs and debuffs, with a buff duration of 2 hours. The GM shop sells consumables and gear up to B-Grade inclusive. Maximum enchant is +25 for weapons, +16 for armor and jewelry, with a +6 cap on the Olympiad. Professions and up to 4 subclasses per character can be purchased without completing the quest. The Noblesse quest is simplified, the Noblesse Raid Boss respawns in about an hour with a 30-minute variance, and all other Raid Bosses respawn on the original server's standard schedule. The success chance for Life Stone insertion is 3-5-7-15%, depending on the stone's grade. Additional conveniences include: carry weight increased by x8, the recipe book and inventory expanded to 250 slots, item auto-pickup available (can be disabled, does not work on Raid Bosses), and offline trading via the .offline command. Class stats are unchanged and match the original values. Server rates: Adena x15, EXP x35, SP x35, Drop x15, Spoil x19, Quest x1, RB x15.

Lineage 2 Private Servers: What They Are and Why Players Choose Them

A Lineage 2 private server is a game project that runs not under NCSoft but on an emulator of the game's server side. Technically these servers are built on two platforms. L2J is an open-source Java emulator: it is highly configurable, so administrators add their own mechanics, events and balance changes. L2OFF uses a server core based on the original NCSoft code, so it feels closer to the official game — especially in damage formulas, skill delays and combat behaviour.

For a player, the platform sets the server's character. L2OFF tends to attract fans of precise classic gameplay and balanced PvP. L2J leaves room for unconventional ideas — custom zones, reworked classes, original events. The main advantage of private servers over official ones is freedom of choice: you decide which chronicle to play, at what rates and at what pace. Registration and the client are free; donations, where they exist, vary from project to project, and their impact on balance is worth checking in advance.

Lineage 2 Chronicles: How the Versions Differ

A chronicle is a version of Lineage 2, much like a patch or edition. Each new chronicle added mechanics, classes and zones. Several chronicles coexist on the private scene, and choosing a version is the first decision that shapes your experience. Below is a comparison of the most popular chronicles with honest guidance on typical rates.

Chronicle Release Key features Typical rates Best for
Interlude (C6) 2006–2007 Olympiad, hero system, Seven Signs, augmentation and SA weapons. No elemental system or vitality — "pure" mechanics. x1–x100 Fans of the classics and an uncompromised PvP experience without extra systems
Gracia Final 2009 Elemental attribute system, vitality, Kamaloka instances and Seed zones. x1–x50 Players who want more PvE content and tactics through attributes
High Five (CT2.6) 2010–2011 The last classic chronicle: refined class balance, expanded instances, gear up to S84 grade. x1–x100 Those seeking maximum classic content and stability
Goddess of Destruction (GoD) 2011–2012 Awakening at level 85, R-grade gear, reworked skill system. Custom Fans of awakened classes and faster-paced progression
Classic since 2019 A separate, reimagined take on the early chronicles: slow leveling, open farm zones, a focus on community and competition for spots. x1–x10 Players who want unhurried old-school gameplay in a modern client
Essence since 2019 A separate Lineage II: Essence client with built-in auto-play, a collection system and accelerated leveling. medium Players with little time for manual farming

Interlude and High Five have led the private scene for over a decade — their files are well studied, their balance is predictable, and the library of build guides is enormous. If you are picking your first server or returning after a long break, these two chronicles are the most straightforward place to start.

How to Choose a Lineage 2 Server: Rates and Playstyle

After the chronicle, the second key parameter is rates. They set how quickly you gain experience, adena and drops — and therefore the whole pace of the game. High rates mean a fast start and early PvP; low rates mean a long, meaningful economy. There is no universal "best" rate: it all depends on how much time you are willing to invest.

Rates Leveling pace Playstyle Best for
x1–x5 (low-rate) Slow, close to official Deep economy, every item matters, clan-driven play Veterans and players with 2–3 hours a day
x15–x100 (mid-rate) Moderate, cap in 1–2 weeks A balance of farming and PvP — the sweet spot Most players and clans
x300+ (high-rate) Fast, gear almost immediately PvP from the first days, minimal farming Those who came for fights, not leveling
x1000+ (PvP) Instant Constant mass-PvP with no preparation Fans of short, dynamic sessions

Once you have settled on a chronicle and rates, look at the server type. PvP servers focus on combat and sieges, PvE servers restrict forced PvP and shift the focus to farming and raid bosses, and faction (GvE) projects split players into two sides of a constant war. Platform (L2J or L2OFF) and donation policy are the final filters: on well-run projects, donations stay cosmetic or convenience-based rather than selling a direct edge in battle.

How the Server Rating Is Built on BestGames

We do not assign positions by hand and we do not sell top spots. A server's place in the rating is decided by player votes: every registered user can vote for a project once every 24 hours, and the counter resets on the first day of each month — so the rating reflects current community support rather than totals accumulated over years.

To keep votes honest, each vote goes through a fraud check: the system analyses the connection for signs of VPN, proxy and Tor and filters out suspicious sources. In parallel, we monitor server status automatically — availability is checked regularly, roughly every 15 minutes — so the listing shows which projects are actually running and which have closed. This combination — community votes protected against fraud plus independent monitoring — separates living projects from empty promises on a landing page.

How to Avoid an Unreliable Server

The private scene is dynamic: some projects last for years, others close within a month. A few simple checks help tell a serious server from a fly-by-night project.

Check the project's age and history. A server that has run for a year or more with a stable community is safer than one that just opened. Study the donation shop before you start. If a low-rate server sells top gear or epic jewelry for money, the economy will collapse within weeks — a clear warning sign. Assess the protection. Serious projects advertise bot and cheat protection; without it, fair PvP dies quickly. Read reviews and check the opening date and wipe plans. Each server card in our rating gathers the key facts — chronicle, rates, platform and monitoring status — so your decision is informed rather than impulsive.

Add Your Server to the Rating

If you run your own Lineage 2 project, add it to the BestGames catalogue and put it in front of the community. A place in the rating is earned through votes from real players, not paid for — this is a fair platform where a strong project with thoughtful balance and an active community gets the attention it deserves. Click "Add Server" and tell players about your world.
