NEW EVENT MAPS.

December and Updates!
We are now on Facebook, look us up or click L2 Equanimity on Facebook Check out our news for this month! 
HIGHLIGHTS: L2J SYNC, FRINTEZZA INSTANCED
- As some of you know FoR mobs recently got stronger to help prevent the many people who were soloing it (it was never meant to be soloed and the drops are designed not for one person, but a small group), but we realize in some cases its too hard for a small group to even go there now. OUr recent countermeasures consist of reflect damage to cancel out VR effects which is very effective, inspite of this most of the mobs at FoR now have lower P atk (they had high p atk before to make it not soloable but that didnt work out). So now For should be a little easier but still not soloable, more small changes will probably happen depending on the results of this change.
- Fixed a problem with the WH GM Shop service thx Feodora for reporting.
- Now when you check your wh, you have the ability to choose your selection to be organized, if this is an annoyance let me know.
- Fixed a problem with the skill "Master of Combat" reguarding its first enchatn route it should give extra p atk for 2h blunts and 2h swords too, ty puchatek for bringing it to my attention.

November and Updates!
Sorry about the delay in this news post, been too busy with our l2j sync its been taking more time then expected to do everything that needs to be done before it hits our live server. It shouldnt be too long now though, and our banner contest is almost over and we have had a ton of great entries so if your still thinking about it, you only got a few more days! Here is last months updates 
HIGHLIGHTS: .DRESSME COMMAND, VOTE SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS

Banner Contest!
We are having a Banner Contest who ever makes the best banner for each category wins. The banners will be used to help promote the server!Prize = a +20 Boss Jewel of the winners choice, for each category
Categories:
468 x 60 and 120 x 40 (these are the specified dimensions for each category)
Things expected to be placed inside the banner are things that are in our feature list on our website
Feature Page
For example "Custom Farmzones" "Custom Raids" "TvT, CTF, DM , RB Events", "Modified Support Classes" , "Custom Instances", "New Player Bonuses", things like that :)
Tips: Try and make something that will catch someones eye, and do your best to make the file small as possible too! Also please try not to put our server version like "Freya", the reason why is we dont want to have to edit the banner once we update to a new update like High Five.
The contest will end on June 1st 2011!
PS: Players that have given us banners before like "Shi" on the forums, who is Darknuker/Dreamdancer in game are automatically entered into this event to be fair.
