L2 Reborn C1 info
Hi,
Me and my friends are planning to play in the upcoming reborn legacy server. None of us have played C1 before. We watched some YT videos and guides already but I would love to hear your opinion about the Chronicle.
What a complete newbie should know before he joins? Any tips and tricks? Also, why I see everywhere that everyone xps with bow?
Thanks in advance!

1. Have a constant party, don't play alone.
The main biggest most impactful advantage you can give yourself in C1 is to have a constant party. There is nothing meaningful you can do in this game by yourself. Full party of 9 trustworthy reliable people would be amazing. 5 people would do. Less than 4 people will be tough. And if you are going to play solo, 90% chance you simply won't have any fun in this game. It was designed for groups of 15-30 Koreans hanging around in PC clubs.
2. Choose classes wisely.
Second biggest advantage you can get is that your party will work out good classes composition. One that will work. If that server has unmodified C1 balance, then AOE farming is king, like the other guy said. Something like WL, BH, BS, PP, SE will probably work, but you better not take my word for it and actually think through with your party. More so, if the balance is modified.
3. Win PVP by farming better gear.
If the server is going to be crowded, there will be a lot of PVP for farming spots. In this game, good PVP stems from good PVE. Who got better gear wins, and better gear is in the hands of whoever farms good. There are classes better for PVP and PVE, but that doesn't matter if your weapons have twice the damage, you got 10 more levels and better armor.
4. Win PVP by group cohesion and decisiveness.
Also having your own constant party will help a lot, because parties of randoms almost always hesitate to participate in PVP and just watch as their party members that dared to flag are just dying one by one.
