The 2024 Halloween event is here! The Pumpkin Festival has begun! With it comes many new things! Here are the highlights:
- New large pvp combat zone map
- 2 New Legendary Bosses with crazy spells and attacks
- 2 New Monsters
- 3 new Mysterious Codex Entries
- New Pumpkin Eater System (similar to Soul Eaters (more info on this later))
- 3 New Pumpkin Eater Weapons
- 2 New Pumpkin Eater Armors
- 1 New Pumpkin Eater Amulet
- 9 New Traits for Pumpkin Eaters
- Many of other items to support these new features.
New Event Zone
The new event is located at the Pumpkin Festival which you can get to by talking to Jenma who has her decorations set up in SKT, you’ll see her surrounded by Pumpkin Trees! Who knew they could grow in trees right?! Jenma can teleport you to a random location within the new map. The location is random due to the new map being a combat zone, this should allow both pvp and the ability to avoid someone teleporting straight to you to kill you when you go back in. The new map also uses the newer PVP system that balances pvp and provides a much fairer fight.
Pumpkin Eaters
So with the development of Soul Eaters I’ve sought a way to let you guys use/preview this system without having to commit fully to breaking down or feeding your main weapons. This event is exactly that, Pumpkin Eaters are very much like soul eaters but instead of feeding them X/XR Grade soul equipment, instead you feed them special Pumpkin Pails (Weapons) and Bronze, Silver and Gold Pumpkins (Armors). These special pumpkins are leveled up using Pumpkin Enchant Scrolls instead of equipping them and grinding for soul exp. You can get these Pumpkin Eaters by enchanting and using destruction scrolls on these weapon and armor pumpkins. The destruction scrolls provide the chance to create Pumpkin Seeds that can be used in the Hatchery.
New Items / Gear
Event Core - Pumpkin Seed - This Soul Core can be used in the Hatchery portion of the Soul Forge. When hatched it can provide Pumpkin Eaters, Pumpkin Soul Fuel, regular soul cores, as well as other event items. Pumpkin Enchant Scroll - This enchant can be used on Broken Pumpkin Pail, Glowing Pumpkin Pail, Bronze Pumpkin, Silver Pumpkin and Gold Pumpkin. On successful enchants the level of these items go up by 1, 2 or 3 levels. On failure depending on the level it can go down a level or have no change. The highest level this can enchant to is between level 30 and 50 depending on the type of pumpkin. Pumpkin Destruction Scroll - This enchant can be used on Broken Pumpkin Pail, Glowing Pumpkin Pail, Bronze Pumpkin, Silver Pumpkin and Gold Pumpkin. This will destroy the targeted pumpkin providing a random number of Event Core - Pumpkin Seeds based upon the target’s level. Every 10 levels the number of possible seeds it will create goes up. Broken Pumpkin Pail - Event - This is a special Weapon Type pumpkin that can’t be equipped. These can be fed to Weapon Type Pumpkin Eaters, leveled up with Pumpkin Enchant Scrolls or Destroyed with Pumpkin Destruction Scrolls. They have a max level of 40, allowing them to be fed to Pumpkin Eaters Weapons for most slots when leveled up to the highest level. Glowing Pumpkin Pail - Event - This is a special Weapon Type pumpkin that can’t be equipped. These can be fed to Weapon Type Pumpkin Eaters, leveled up with Pumpkin Enchant Scrolls or Destroyed with Pumpkin Destruction Scrolls. They have a max level of 50, allowing them to be fed to Pumpkin Eaters Weapons for all slots when leveled up to the highest level. Bronze Pumpkin - Event - This is a special Armor Type pumpkin that can’t be equipped. These can be fed to Armor Type Pumpkin Eaters, leveled up with Pumpkin Enchant Scrolls or Destroyed with Pumpkin Destruction Scrolls. They have a max level of 30, allowing them to be fed to Pumpkin Eaters Armors for lower level slots when leveled up to the highest level. Silver Pumpkin - Event - This is a special Armor Type pumpkin that can’t be equipped. These can be fed to Armor Type Pumpkin Eaters, leveled up with Pumpkin Enchant Scrolls or Destroyed with Pumpkin Destruction Scrolls. They have a max level of 40, allowing them to be fed to Pumpkin Eaters Armors for most slots when leveled up to the highest level. Gold Pumpkin - Event - This is a special Armor Type pumpkin that can’t be equipped. These can be fed to Armor Type Pumpkin Eaters, leveled up with Pumpkin Enchant Scrolls or Destroyed with Pumpkin Destruction Scrolls. They have a max level of 50, allowing them to be fed to Pumpkin Eaters Armors for all slots when leveled up to the highest level. Pumpkin Eater Armor - SE - This pumpkin eater can be named and become a special soul eater that has 3 random traits including the possibility of the 8 new traits specifically for pumpkin eaters. Pumpkin Eaters will be weakened outside of the pumpkin festival event (unless it has the Pumpkin Permanence Trait). Glowing Pumpkin Eater Armor - SE - This pumpkin eater can be named and become a special soul eater that has 5 random traits including the possibility of the 8 new traits specifically for pumpkin eaters.

Pumpkin Fuel - Fireworks - Using this item provides a buff that provides a soul shot / spirit shot type boost for Pumpkin Eater Weapons increasing their damage. It can be obtained by hatching Pumpkin Seeds in the Hatchery.New Event Donation Packages
There have been 3 new event donation packages added with the release of this event, 2 specifically for the pumpkin festival and one a continuation of the soul forge beta.
Pumpkin Festival Starter Bundle
So with the release of soul eaters, you guys are gonna wanna know what the procs do so you know which ones you wanna feed to your soul eaters! I spent the past week building a new tool and editing every single proc and X/XR weapon to ensure that they all have descriptions as well as making sure they are on the correct levels so that they can be gained by a soul eater (there are a few exceptions)
You can get to this proc list by clicking on Library at the top then clicking Soul Procs.
By clicking on the proc name on a weapon info page, to list only the procs for a specific weapon:
Or by clicking this link here: L1.5 : NPCs [Custom Private Lineage 1 Server]
I hope you guys find this useful!
So we are finally ready to start rolling out a beta test for the long previewed Soul Forge, the system that lets you create/manage a new form of equipment, Soul Eaters. However, before we get to that, we’ve hit another major milestone! 15 YEARS!!! For 15 years we have been up with a 99.999% uptime. We’re older than all but a handful of mmorpgs and I couldn’t have done it without all of you! So thank you all for growing and supporting this server through all the years. So without further ado here are the details for how we’re gonna celebrate it this year!
Increased Gift Coin Donation Rate and Mini Game Donation Packs
All donations during the months of July and August will be at the bonus rate of 25 GC per dollar donated (for non package donations), as always this can be boosted further by making larger donation amounts. You can use the Donation Calculator to see these rate changes and find out exactly what gifts you will get to thank you for these donations. For those who donated before these rates were applied during the month of July, we will manually deliver the difference to your character.
We have created 2 new event donation packages for the anniversary arcade, these have bonus plays for the arcade games released (more on that later). You can see these packages at the Donation Packages page.
Additionally there are 2 new event donation packages for the Soul Forge release that are very limited in the number allowed to donate for as they contain soul cores and abstract cores to help give you a jump start in the hatchery. More details on this to come later in this post.
The Arcade is back!
We’ve brought back a whole slew of mini games with updated prizes! The Anniversary GC Wheel, Treasures of Insolence, Flip To Win, Lindvior’s Mini Games, Fafurion’s Mini Games, Valakas’ Mini Games and Antharas’ Mini Games. You can access these on the L1.5 Arcade page. Added to these mini games are Soul Cores, Abstract Cores, Soul Fuel as well as 15Y NFT prizes which can be claimed for the new Anniversary NFT’s (more on that in just a sec).
15th Anniversary NFTs
So the past few years, I’ve been creating NFT’s to celebrate anniversaries and it has gone pretty well, so I’m keeping up the tradition! This year we have 4 brand new NFTs with all new functions.
Soul Forge - Hatchery Slot: Opens an additional slot for hatching soul cores, in the Soul Forge’s Hatchery. Only the first one will work, any additional ones in your wallet have no effect.Rune Stone - Physical Damage: Passively increases physical damage for all characters on the wallet linked account. These runes may stack for increased damage.
Rune Stone - Magical Damage: Passively increases magical damage for all characters on the wallet linked account. These runes may stack for increased damage.
Rune Stone - Critical Damage: Passively increases critical damage for all characters on the wallet linked account. These runes may stack for increased bonus.
These are obtainable by winning the “NFT Claim - 15Y” item in the mini games and sending a PM to zajako on Discord to request one in exchange. There will also be various contests throughout the rest of the summer in which case you’ll be able to win them.
Soul Forge Beta
After 2 years of development I’m finally ready to release the Soul Eater system for beta. There will be bugs and please make sure to report and definitely not exploit these bugs. There are also some features that are on hold and will be released later. There is a lot to this system and there will be many questions, please ask these questions. Additionally I’ve put a lot of extra time into building tools to make restoring items eaten by the soul eaters easy so that I can undo any mistakes made. If you need me to do this, contact me @zajako on discord. With that out of the way, I’ll give a brief explaination of each part to this system and a list of related items so that those who have not been reading the #previews channel on discord are caught up.
What is the Soul Forge
The soul forge is a web based section of the game for hatching soul cores and managing soul eaters. It is located at l15server.com/forge.html and has many sections to it that have different purposes.
What is a Soul Eater
Soul Eaters are the next evolution of soul equipment. They are living weapons, armors and accessories that not only gain soul experience from killing enemies, but require you to feed them soul equipment to provide them their growth and shape their stats and abilities. Soul Eaters have up to 7 slots for level ups, between 2 - 4 traits and if its a weapon up to 10 slots for skills.
Soul Forge - Hatchery
This is the first section of the Soul Forge, the Hatchery. It’s purpose is to allow you to hatch soul and abstract cores after certain amounts of time. To hatch a core, make sure its stored to the site claim system by double clicking it in the game or if won as a prize it should already be there. After that click on the item socket in one of the hatchery slots to bring up the menu to add a core. It will then show that it is undergoing the hatching process which takes a random duration that has ranges based on the core type. At first there will be a limit to 3 sockets, the other sockets will be unlock-able in the future. Upon hatching you can click the button to see the results. The results can be a range of items that include soul eaters, cores and fuel.
Soul Forge - Foundry
This section of the soul forge is for after you’ve obtained a soul eater. Make sure you claim it from the site claim system to one of your characters, then in the soul forge select that character at the bottom right. After doing that it should show up in the foundry. To be able to use and feed items to a soul eater it must first have its name cast into it, this is the purpose of the foundry. Click the Cast Name button next to the soul eater you have and type in a name for it from which it will then be moved to the Armory with between 2-4 traits on it. In the future the Armory will be able to re-cast soul eaters to allow you to re-roll your traits and/or rename them.
Soul Forge - Armory
So now you have it, a Soul Eater that you’ve named, it shows up in the Armory as long as you have the correct character selected in the bottom right. Now its time to feed them! Each Soul eater will have 3 buttons on the right side of it. Digest Item, Swallow Item and a Info button.
The info button shows you your soul eater’s information, its traits as well as its levels and skills.
The Digest button allows you to feed items to it to provide it with stats that it can gain on level ups.
The Swallow Item button allows you to feed items to it to provide it with Skills aka procs if its a weapon.
More to come
There’s a lot more information to be provided about this system so I’ll be making a much more focused and detailed guide at a later date. Please ask questions and if you make a mistake please reach out for support and I’ll be glad to help undo things while its in beta.
Also again please report any bugs and do not exploit them. If you’re unsure if its a bug, please ask.
Good Luck, Have Fun,
GM Zajako

Time may not always be on my side, but its on your side with this Fundraising event! The Temporal event is back with chests spawning containing items from the past, present and if you’re lucky, the future! The funds raised by this event will allow me to keep focus on finishing the new Soul Forge system so that you guys can create your very own Soul Eaters!
This system will allow you to temper and fuse empty cores into soul cores. With these soul cores you can place them in a pod in the hatchery and watch as they hatch into one of many different items, including the possibility of Soul Eater weapons and armors.
Once you have your very first soul eater, you will be able to then brand it with a unique name and begin to feed it soul weapons and armors to truly customize it to your liking giving it levels and skills up to a maximum of level 100!
This system has been in development for over a year now and is getting close to being ready, so please donate and help fund the release of this new feature! There are multiple parts to this event so read below more information about them.

New Event Donation Packages
There are four new donation packages with a wide range of event items in them to help you get the most out of the in game temporal chest event! Check them out here:
Temporal Chest Event
Temporal Chests spawn randomly when you kill monsters above level 65. These chests come in 7 different flavors each with different rates and goodies to win. There’s a catch though! You must have a key to open them! Each chest has its own type of key required to open it. You can get these keys through Ives or from chests at the end of daily instances. Temporal chests will also disappear 10 minutes after they appear, so you better open them quickly!
The chests have been updated with some new drops including Empty Cores and even some Soul Cores which are like eggs that may very well hatch into your very first Soul Eater when the system releases! You can see the contents of each chest by clicking the images below:
The keys used to open these chests may be obtained from different methods read the details for each.
Temporal Key: Syndicate - This key opens the Syndicate chests. It is the most common key and is obtainable from opening the chests at the end of an instance, using gc with the Ives Npc to obtain directly or by using Temporal Key Boxes to obtain a random key. Temporal Key: Daazen - This key opens the Daazen chests. It is an uncommon key and is obtainable from opening the chests at the end of an instance, using gc with the Ives Npc to obtain directly or by using Temporal Key Boxes to obtain a random key. Temporal Key: Sayjix - This key opens the Sayjix chests. It is a rare key and is obtainable from opening the chests at the end of an instance, using gc with the Ives Npc to obtain directly or by using Temporal Key Boxes to obtain a random key. Temporal Key: Empire - This key opens the Empire chests. It is a very rare key and is obtainable from opening Sayjix chests or by using Temporal Key Boxes to obtain a random key. Temporal Key: Zumbalari - This key opens the Zumbalari chests. It is a legendary key and is obtainable from opening Empire chests or by using Temporal Key Boxes to obtain a random key. Temporal Key: Silver Dragon - This key opens the Silver Dragon chests. It is a legendary key and is obtainable from opening Zumbalari chests or by using Temporal Key Boxes to obtain a random key. Temporal Key: Gold Dragon - This key opens the Gold Dragon chests. It is a legendary key and is obtainable from opening Zumbalari and Silver Dragon chests or by using Temporal Key Boxes to obtain a random key.Here are some other related Temporal Event Items:
Temporal Key Box - This box contains a random temporal key to open up the chests. These are obtainable from Ives via the codex or talking to him in -shop! Opening one of these can give you the extra rare Empire, Zumbalari, Silver Dragon and Gold Dragon keys as well! Blessed Temporal Key Box - This box contains a random temporal key for the top 5 temporal boxes, not including any of the 2 most common keys. These are obtainable from Ives via the codex or talking to him in -shop! Opening one of these can give you the extra rare Zumbalari, Silver Dragon and Gold Dragon keys as well! Temporal Chest Summoner - This item links into the temporal network and pulls out a random temporal chest! This includes the extra rare Silver and Gold Dragon! Once spawned these chests will still require a key to open. You can obtain these from Ives when he has them in stock. Blessed Temporal Chest Summoner - This item links into the temporal network and pulls out a random temporal chest from one of the top 5 factions! This includes the extra rare Silver and Gold Dragon! Once spawned these chests will still require a key to open. You can obtain these from Ives when he has them in stock.New Soul Forge Items
Some new items for the upcoming soul forge system have been added to these chests as mentioned above. If you use one of these items in the game, it will transfer it to the site inventory system directly to the soul forge. It may seem like the item went away but rest assured it will be in the soul forge when it opens up, ready for use! If you would like to keep track of the items you’ve obtained from the event, you can abstain from using them to keep them in your in game inventory. If you’re concerned about inventory space though, just send them to the forge! Also a forewarning, as this content is unreleased many of these details are subject to change as they are finished being developed and released. Please keep that in mind.
Empty Core S1 - S5
These items are the raw material used to create Soul Cores, the egg like objects that have the potential to grow into a living, breathing (and more importantly EATING) weapon, armor or accessory. These will be tempered at the soul forge at the Anvil station and higher stages are more likely to succeed in becoming a soul core or when fused with an existing soul core, upgrading it to a higher tier. You can also recycle undesired soul cores and soul eaters back into empty cores using the Crucible station.Soul Cores
With the release of the Soul Forge there will be a total of 10 soul core types. This event will only allow you to obtain 4 of those 10 (however your empty cores may become one of the others when you temper them at the anvil !). Soul Cores are placed in pods at the hatchery and after a specific amount of time they will hatch into different items or into a soul eater if you are lucky! The soul eaters they can become are based on the soul core you hatch and will have specific passive properties depending on which type.
Currently Obtainable:
Soul Core - Venom
Soul Core - Frost
Soul Core - Blaze
Soul Core - Elmorian
Coming with Soul Forge Launch:
Soul Core - Energy
Soul Core - Infinite
Soul Core - Mystic
Soul Core - Temporal
Soul Core - Gaia
Soul Core - Shadow
In the future as development unfolds for each of these Soul Cores and their designated Soul Eaters, I plan to release more information about them. You can see all current previews of the Soul Forge in the #previews channel on discord. There are already many videos posted of the current progress of the Soul Forge and if you scroll far back enough some previews of the soul eaters obtained from some of those cores.
Lastly I would like to say thank you to all of you who have supported and continue to support the development of L1.5, this game truly exists because of you all!
Good Luck,
Have Fun,
GM Zajako
