Confidence
L2DB operates as a comprehensive fan database for Lineage 2 High Five, hosting item/skill/NPC data, server announcements, and gaming streams. The domain has been registered since approximately 2014 (4,445 days old), with a copyright notice spanning 2014–2026, indicating sustained operation over more than a decade. Our antivirus network flagged zero detections across 92 engines, the hosting IP has zero abuse reports, and SSL is valid. Web searches across scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, and general sources returned no complaints or accusations against the site itself. The site's footer properly credits NCsoft's Lineage II trademark and references legitimate gaming infrastructure (mmo-dev.info, Twitch/YouTube embeds). While the site lacks formal business registration details and uses Russian nameservers (consistent with its Russian operator base), this is typical for fan-run gaming databases and does not indicate fraud. The absence of contact information is a minor usability gap but not a scam signal in the context of a free fan resource.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

L2DB presents as a database and community hub for Lineage 2 Chronicles High Five, featuring searchable data on items, skills, NPCs, drop tables, manor information, and armor sets. The page includes embedded video streams, server opening announcements, and a rating system for private L2 servers. Body text and footer consistently credit the site as L2DB.INFO and acknowledge NCsoft's intellectual property rights.

Infrastructure

Domain registered via eNom, LLC with Russian nameservers (registrant.ru). SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt with 63 days to expiry. Hosting IP 178.252.197.2 shows zero abuse reports and a clean reputation score. The site loads external resources from legitimate gaming and streaming platforms (Twitch CDN, YouTube embeds, and other L2 fan sites).

Domain History

L2DB.INFO has been online for approximately 12 years (registered ~2014, WHOIS age 4,445 days). The copyright notice spans 2014–2026, indicating continuous operation. Similar fan-database domains (l2db.ru, l2db.club) exist in the same niche, suggesting a recognized pattern of community-run L2 resources.

Web Reputation

No scam reports, complaints, or negative reviews found on independent review aggregators, Reddit, or general web searches. Our antivirus network detected zero malicious or suspicious flags across 92 engines. Browser blocklists are clean. The site is not listed in any phishing or malware databases.

Risk Factors
3
  • No contact email, phone, or postal address listed on the page — typical for fan-run sites but limits user recourse.
  • Russian nameservers and no formal business registration — consistent with fan-operated gaming databases but reduces transparency.
  • No independent trust-aggregator reviews available — expected for niche gaming fan sites with limited commercial activity.
Positive Signals
5
  • Domain operational for 12 years with consistent copyright and branding — indicates sustained, non-ephemeral operation.
  • Zero antivirus detections across 92 engines and zero abuse reports on hosting IP — clean security profile.
  • Proper trademark attribution to NCsoft in footer — demonstrates respect for intellectual property.
  • Embedded content from legitimate platforms (Twitch, YouTube, mmo-dev.info) — suggests integration with recognized gaming infrastructure.
  • No scam reports, complaints, or negative reviews found in any public database or web search.
AI Recommendation
L2DB is safe to visit as a gaming resource. Do not enter payment information or personal credentials unless you are intentionally registering for a private Lineage 2 server listed on the site. If you encounter a server that requests suspicious payment methods or personal data, verify the server's legitimacy independently before proceeding.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on l2db.info and not a lookalike like l-2db.info.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review found no threat indicators on l2db.info. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • l2db.info passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 88/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. l2db.info presents a valid TLSv1.2 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · R13, expiring in 63 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • l2db.info is 12.2 years old, registered on 4/9/2014 through eNom, LLC. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • No. All 92 antivirus engines in our malware network report l2db.info as clean.
  • No. l2db.info is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • l2db.info resolves to an IP operated by JSC Rosin.telekom in RU (usage type: Fixed Line ISP). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
  • Yes. l2db.info sits in the global top-100k on Cloudflare Radar, which means it has substantial real-world traffic. That does not automatically make it safe, but established brands almost always rank here and throwaway scam domains almost never do.
