Background

Arena Ragnarok is a project started in Spring of 2013, but was discontinued due to difficulties in time investments. The main goal of the project was to design a server that not only recreates Pre-Renewal in its days of acclaim, but also provide engrossing innovations that are found in modern games. One of the core innovations outlined is a system reminiscent of the Arena in World of Warcraft; hence, the name Arena Ragnarok. If you've ever played games with a full-blown matchmaking system such as League of Legends, StarCraft II, and the like, then you should already know what to expect from the Arena System.

The Arena System

At its heart, you'll find that Arena Ragnarok provides the quintessential Mid-Rate Pre-Renewal server that does not deviate all that much from Official functionality. However, there are a few exceptions; one of which is the Arena System.
The Arena System is simply a supplement to Ragnarok Online's existing player-versus-player systems. Parties can participate in 2v2, 3v3, 5v5 or 7v7 player-versus-player matches wherein each player possesses a league and a matchmaking rating that is used with complex algorithms to find the most interesting matches. It may sound complicated, but all you really have to do is "queue up!"

Design Philosophies

Arena Ragnarok is built by Pre-Renewal Ragnarok Online zealots. To that extent, the server endeavors to maintain Official features with minimal alterations. If you miss the days when Pre-Renewal was at its peak, but you also crave the breakthroughs of modern MMOs, then you should experience a heartwarming stay here at Arena Ragnarok. The server may strike you at first as a PvP-centric server, but it really strives to cater to both PvE and PvP lovers. So, really, if you are just a fan of Ragnarok Online, you should try us out!
