I think leveling is too tedious and I just want to WoE.
And WoE should be about skills not about who has more free time to waste on tedioud stuff and level faster! yes after 2-3 years every single player on the server will have multiple 99/70, but what about after 2-3 months? who would dominate WoE scene?
Would you rather have players who can afford and tolerate 8 hours a day of leveling and farming dominate WoE scene or would rather give everyone equal chances and make it more about skills (not levels or gears)?


Thinking the mass population will be leveling constantly over eight hours a day is a bit nieve. Our community has grown over the years and many who are returning for this server are adults working full time. And who cares who has the most castles. If you don't feel inclined to play a game based on others progess then just quit playing MMOs. Because there will ALWAYS be someone out there who is better or "has more time." You may assume that these players are "one tough badasses." When in reality, those players reality is Ragnarok.

FYI most MMOs are and will always be gear based. Its what sets one player from another. Whether that be sheer luck or endless farming. If you looking for a pure skill game go play some RO2.

the amount of slots for char creation kinda lame for being 1 char can't it not be like it was before make it 3 chars instead of 1.

Looking great! Can not wait to play!!!

Although I think we shouldnt restrict characters from being created by VIP only, this will stop alot of players from wanting to play here. Keep character creation just like its done on valk, 3 with regular account...9 with VIP.

It will need VIP to make chars, but forever accessible. Though it is possible to restrict it so only up to slot 3 can be played with no VIP or something.

Later some form of EXP quest will come in. The biggy I want to see more people doing this time around is the Sign Quest, since we are very specifically making those maps available, noobs in hel sound like fun!

Morroc will be un destroyed.

The geographers, I'll have to check, honestly I would rather not have geos in-game at start due to the hunting method but such is life.


I am perfectly fine with 1 character per account. I wonder if not many people realize that you can link 3 RO accounts to your warpportal account. And since dual clienting is possible it shouldn't be a huge deal.

Beata, for the launch I need it to be as open as possible, we will be attentive to the low areas to be sure bots get thunked out easier. We have been reallocating resources to allow for this.

For VIP, the problem is the map server just isn't equipped to be able to read if you have VIP or not, I would love it to, but it just isn't available. It is possible later it will be an option, but waiting for a possible that may never come isn't how we get this launched.


Ouch. Be nice when you guys are able to make this happen, but it's probably not a bad thing for server launch as it'll keep everyone on a more even footing.

y no light blue pots?
the list already dictates who ever will pay will lvl faster.


Of course... that's that paying for battle manuals does. We can live with no pots. It makes it way way to easy to level when server starting out. I can see them putting pots in after a few months though, when we get server settled and quite a few people leveled up. But not now for a new server.

BMx3

Uhh yeah... Not a chance bud.

Besides, if you think leveling is that bad you can just wait until they start implementing the higher level dungeons and you can just level as fast as people used to at the end of pre-renewal.


I can so see these being in the altered pre-re lucky boxes as I bet they'll do that type of thing anyways. they'll just use the really old headgear's and while it'll be a leg up, they weren't overpowered. I wave a puppy love. No stats, they just look cool :) Wonder if they can get the equipment window from renewal over with the costume headgear tab. Would be cool :)

HOW DO YOU JOB CHANGE INTO A HUNTER IF THERE IS NO HUGEL? HEIMDADDY?

Classic Small Life Potion 10 Box - Will there be Classic Med Life Potion box's aswell?

Please include light blue potions OR WoE Potion boxes.


Payon. Like it was before hugel was even thought of as an idea much less before implementation.

TBH renewal PVM and leveling is much more fun than pre-renewal

lolwat... Did you get a brain aneurysm the day the renewal was implemented or something?

You mean you like making parties with strangers to do turn-in quests, effectively making everyone on the server level in the exact same places. With the leveling experience consisting of spamming overpowered AoE skills to kill tens of monsters at the same time without having to worry about dying because nothing is challenging anymore.

How about some old school Thor's without TKMs and alice shield? It was fun and challenging to level. How about some Bio 3 on an FS scholar? Imo Bio 3 as an FS scholar is the most fun, involving and satisfying PvM experience I've ever had in an MMORPG.

And just because you don't want to play the game, that doesn't mean others don't want to.

THINK OF THE MONEY HEIM.

Also, like I said before. Heim hasn't mentioned if the Hunter job change has been reverted to the old one, FOR ALL WE KNOW HE HAS FORGOTTEN AND YOU CAN'T CHANGE TO BE A HUNTER.

This is just reminding Heim to make the needed changes.

Obviously.. but Heim might have forgotten to move the NPCs.. you need to remember that the server "mechanics" is 13.1 (or 13.2, I forget), and they're reverting the map changes. Probably manually.

Human error, bro.

LOL, if he said the systems are mainly based on 13.3 there's a chance the hunter job change place is in Hugel. Just to remind Heim, no offence at all.

As far as I know, mechanics is what it is. I'm sure they've got everything prepared.

You should have enough experience with iRO to know they're never "prepared".

So no gym passes? That's kind of a bummer but not a huge deal. I just like it so I can carry more arrows.

n.m. I see weight up scrolls. I'm assuming those are passes under a different name.

Launch date and time:
We are shooting to have it ready by Thursday evening the 28th, but tentatively the 29th is the plan. We have the server up now (only we can access it) so we can iron out the map connections, item mall and all the little surprises that are sure to come up. We do need to make sure the client will read from its correct cdata.grf after the data.grf. That little tidbit is what has me not 100% giving a date and time.


What timezone are you guys based on? :) Thanks!

Generally boxes ARE tradable, but when you open them they are no longer.

Rental item level, needs looked at a little bit, not decided on final levle requirement.

GUI, will be pre-renewal. HQ isn't redesigning the game to allow us to do this and that level of code change is not possible for us to do without a lot of support.

Pre-Amatsu monster distribution is the "goal" but I don't know how well that will apply overall. But that feeling is what we are shooting for.


Didn't the updated GUI kick in before renewal...?

Sitting to regen SP isn't a an exciting challenging aspect of the leveling process.
Anyone can do it, it's just tedious and boring

Yes we can be hardcore and sit to regen HP, maybe watch some porn or something while waiting.
But that isn't a challenge is it, it's just boring


boring vs pay2win

I prefer to listen to heavy rock and grind hardcore mode for a few days at a time uninterrupted until my eyes bleed.
Sitting gives my mind time to think, which is detrimental to the grind mind state
Personally preference I guess :3
