L2 Runestone

Type: Lineage 2 Private Server
Website: l2runestone.com
Tagline: "Built to still be here in a year."

L2 Runestone is an Interlude C6 Lineage 2 server at x5 that opened on 10 August 2026. It keeps retail class balance, sieges, epic bosses and a weekly Olympiad, and it removes the shortcuts many packs add: there is no autofarm, no gear above D grade sold by NPCs and nothing that matters for sale. Everything from C grade up drops, is crafted or is traded between players, so the dwarf is the heart of the economy. The owners promise there will never be a wipe, and they are open that the server is small, with no countdown, no launch event and no fake population counter.

Enchanting: Safe to +3, or +4 on full body armour, with one point per scroll and a broken item on failure; scrolls are never sold by NPCs, and the maximum is +15 on weapons and armour and +12 on jewellery.
Enchant Curve: Rates are gentler than retail early and harsher late, at 96% for +4, 80% for +8 and 52% for +15 with normal scrolls.
No Autofarm: No command or macro engine plays the game, and only Adena is auto-looted.
No Pay-to-Win: Power is never purchasable, and only convenience and cosmetics will ever be sold.
Retail Combat: Casts keep a real interrupt window and crowd control never exceeds 90%.
Offline Trade: Offline trade and craft shops are restored across restarts.
Full Geodata: Geodata covers 163 regions with pathfinding enabled, so nothing walks through walls.
Anti-Bot and Anti-Advertising: An in-game bot check runs alongside filters on chat, whispers, store titles and character names.
Backups: Daily backups are kept in three places, with a weekly test that actually restores them.
Fixed Quests and Recipes: An audit of all 871 craft recipes and the quest chain fixed the Orc first class quests, Mimir's Elixir, an ambush in Wendy's quest and a B grade recipe with no source.
Full Client Download: The full client with the launcher is on the download page, so a fresh PC can join.
