Imo both ymir and valk are still in relatively healthy states population-wise. They should not endanger this a merger which imo will not provide much benefit at the current time.

I don't think the economies being similar is that great a factor but rather population.

If anything i'd say if possible there should be some inter-server woes with a max number to each alliance and no god items/mvp cards.

This idea is so horrible you should be banned.

I'm gonna have to agree. sorry OP.

Chaos Loki Iris Sakray mess was more than enough.. Leave things be...

Imagine if you had to handle overflows for this?
You'd end up with at least 6++ accounts total if you had overflow from the previous mergers and added more characters to those accounts too.

In the past God items were the crowning achievement of a guild, now they are common equipment for some. The difference between damage those who have these items and those who do not are huge, and monopolies on these items tend to self perpetuate the problem, as those guilds attract numbers and have a major advantage in WoE. They can control the production on certain god item pieces at that point and force those in possession of other common pieces to sell for lack of use.

Speaking purely about game design, the best option would have probably been to delete all the god items and their parts and let the server fight out its own brand new set of god items. It would make WoE feel like it has a lot more purpose and each new god item would carry the weight that such an item should hold instead of it being about as common place as flip flops.

Then again, if they did that the streets would be running red with blood to this day, so kind of a no win solution.

^This. Nobody wants a mostly-botter server merged with legits. kthxbai

Nobody wants a mostly-bot-filled server with copious amounts of god items either.

Base line is:




Don't merge.

Valk has copious amounts of god items compared to Ymir?

It is a terrible idea, but funny how those saying no to this aren't even the people with the most to lose anyway.

[wonka]

Ymir:we don't want your bots.

Valk:we don't want your GTB and god items.

so everyone its happy =3 lets leave things as they are~

[Cubical]

Ymir:we don't want your bots.

Valk:we don't want your GTB and god items.

^^^^ said it perfectly

kept them separate forever, or just move yourself

[Hrothmund]

^^ sums it up pretty well. Nobody wants a merger of any sort atm, I doubt anyone would want to tangle with that possibilty again for a number of years (hopefully never).

[Hrishi]

I don't remember who said Valk has comparable god items to Ymir, but whoever that was is completely wrong. Ymir has easily tons more than Valk ever did. Don't forget Ymir has 3 of the oldest servers dumped into it. And yes, GTB would be a problem I suppose, although I've always been curious why GTB was disabled on Valk. It's not even the most broken item on RO anyway, there are items worth a lot more. =/

[TheMarX]

I would be glad to see a merger, I think that a nice big population is a good thing keeps prices low and just adds to a greater variety of players, I am for this move... but keep your bots right where they're at we dunt need THEM xD

I was really happy when i saw this hahaha. Adventure Time ftw

[OpticBlast]

Im jst new here in forums and jst came back from a long ro break, i dnt wna merge but i guess an event, ocational woe between ymir and valk will be awesome /no1

[CeruleanGamer]

We can do a Server vs Server PvP/WoE match or something.

Let's see who's gonna win: people with God items vs bots with unlimited supply of healing items?

[Shinigami777]

...Valk + Ymir merge= A catastrophe waiting to happen. I agree with Ralis there, Valk is populated as it is, adding Ymir, yeah... Lag central. o.0 Plus what if they DON'T make it a premium server? Then that would mean more bots than ever before thanks to GTB cards. >.>

[Xellie]

How exactly is more number off god items and mvp cards bad? inst it just going to even out the competition?

Or are some people afraid they might loose the illusion of Elite based on their god items and not on their actual game play?

I am sure you all have seen enough share of good players who don't use any god items.

if any thing they would make god items more affordable

Gosh, my completely innocent reply got deleted from this topic.

NO. Guilds need things to aim for, people need goals. That is why rare items exist. To have something special to strive for. If they want god items to be common they'll put them in the kafra shop.

[OpticBlast]

I SAY NO, THE ARMY OF INEVITABLE BOTS WOULD DOMINATE YMIR AND I KNOW THEY DONT WANT MORE LAG AND ANNOYING SPAMS, lets just leave both servers alone... /oops

BUT EVENT WOE, OK!

I really hope our CM's/GM's aren't oblivious enough to think an idea like merging these two servers is even worth discussing further than anything that is written on the front page or the amount of -rep OP has.
Er wait.

Despite petty fights any request for this thread to continue discussing this idea sounds rather idiotic.
Someone just close this thread for the love of god before Gravity finds some reason to actually do this.

No. I was implying that after such a merge the game would become non-premium and bots would pop up everywhere, you'd have a mayhem of god items left and right, big guilds botting up and down.

You get the point.

[BlackPotato]

Please no.

Valk is fine without Golden Thief Bug Cards. Ymir has been around for much longer with higher drop rates and such, so there are even more MVP cards and God Items.

There would be too many guilds for WoE. New realms would need to be added to balance things out for all of the low and mid tier guilds.

The strain on the servers would be awful as well. Imagine those WoE realms 2x as laggy as they currently are. Do not want.

So... In short, no. Pleaseeeee no. =/

rather not infect ymir with anymore valk-bot trash. not everyone is like that, but the majority of that crap would rather not deal with. ymir should absorb the -_-ty test server however, since it was really stupid to make it anyways
