Just going to describe the features we tend to enjoy and then some we absolutely hate. We're thinking pre-renewal because renewal RO might as well be a new game and we already know where we would like to try for that.

1. Accessible PvP (or No MVP card PVP)
-What we mean by accessible is, how accessible it is to obtain gear for pvp. We're no longer fans of the s*** grind for cards and only go for no mvp cards PVP or have all the cards easily obtainable. It's tiresome and just not as rewarding anymore farming s*** at less than 10% drop rate let alone at 1%, .1%, or .01% that tend to be so pivotal to PVP because the gap in strength is large.

2. We prefer our LRs/MRs populated and retail-ish experience. Please no customization that affects the game details too much. We like most of the original RO experience and usually custom servers just can't mirror that experience with their own content.

3. SHR/HR are cool too.
- Populated enough that the PVP Arena is flourishing and usually easy enough to get all the gear going.
- A few pieces of custom headgears is OK, anything else and we start questioning it. Extra slots in gear is cool as it tends to balance PVP very well.

List of instant NOPEs,

1. Custom content way over the line is a big NO. There's a difference between different server rates affecting gameplay vs custom items completely defining a META. A lot of servers are guilty of the latter.
2. To follow up, an economy based on custom content is a big NO too. Are we playing RO or are we playing something else. A little leeway with SHR/HR, but very little.
3. SHR/HR with ridiculously low MVP card drop rates (looking at you 1% and 3%). Remember low spawn rate artificially lowers card drop rate too xd.
4. Healing PVP is garbage outside of WOE, don't do it.

Some of the more memorable servers we used to play on.

XileroPK (before it became a hot mess), TalonRO (eh), ggro (and it is DEAD), InsomniacRO (sucked it up and learned how to play SHR), Nameless RO (the true glorious HR days), a plethora of other mid rate servers (the populations tends to be the problem here).

TL:DR hit two of the good points and absolutely none of the bad points and we'll hop on it no questions.

Holding off for now, we skimmed the suggestions and the server changes.
- 5% on everything is fine but some of the pivotal cards are lower, although we do see the easy availability of bloody branches.
- You're guild packages are scary.
- Customs are pushing it, and you slotted the god items,...you completely removed status immunity from stats vs just raising them to reflect the amount of stats you get for a 255 server.

- On another note, it appears there might be a boredom problem. Whether you want to keep PvM or PVP interaction alive, it's all about community interaction. I think your going in the right direction making things convenient but it also looks like there's an unintended consequence of making things more annoying to do too.

For example, the gold room makes things convenient and easily translates to better gear. There isn't some RNG to it, you farm and you KNOW you will eventually have it. Farming materials for WoE and adjusting things to compensate for a 255 server all good, that infinite potion suggestion can eat s*** though. Zeny sinks good. Don't entertain every suggestion either, if someone is bored of RO, they probably could never enjoy it in the first place.

Hey DroppedPJK,
maybe you guys want to look into Ragnaclan?
We offer you a fine populated & balanced Midrate Server with floating rates, which just got increased to 75x/75x/25x floating up to 90x/90x/30x.
I think with those rates, it should be fairly easy to get a maximum leveled character done in no time. Especially if you join our Devil Square event which drops a lot of experience to players.

Rates overview:

Regarding activity:
I added you a screenshot of our Devil Square that just happened.
Besides that, our vending merchants get kicked after 72hours if they are not renewed. So we only keep the vending characters of active players.

Regarding PvP rooms:
You'll find an announcer in the PvP to server broadcast that you're looking for a challenge. At this hour, PvP isn't much attended but later on you'll find some pvp addicts hanging around.
You will obtain a skull per player kill that you can trade in for either exclusive pvp auras or to cosmetic headgears. Besides that, if you're very successful, you'll be displayed on our webpage PvP ladder.

Regarding costumes:
We have many cosmetic headgear's that are coming without any stats. Those items can be obtained as lucky rewards through events, battleground, PvP - from the cashshop - and so on.
Besides that, we have a handful costume made weapons to buff out-of-meta classes to make them attractive to some players again.
All in all, we focus on a balanced and mostly official Ragnarok experience.
Useful information regarding our server can be found in our wiki page > Ragnaclan Wikipedia

In case you are interested in Battlegrounds:
We have badge bonus hours and of course the BG set implemented. We do not have the glorious set available.

and on the side note:
We plan to host a super-woe in about two weeks to celebrate our six month anniversary. Maybe you would like to join it to get a first impression of our server :)

I hope I could catch your interest. Have a good day~   /lv

Hi DroppedPJK & Friends,

Have you tried Divergent Ragnarok (Dystopia)? It's fresh low-rate trans-revo server (Modified Renewal Trans).

1. PvP is inaccessible right now since everyone is busy grinding and leveling. But we will be having a vanila woe wherein some items are disabled such as MVP and God Items.

2. We are at a low-rate experience. We don't have much modification except for some features such as Rest Bonus Exp System, Clan + Guild, Shadow System and etc. Custom Items = None.

If ever you wanted to look at it, please visit our website at https://panel.divergent-ro.net

Could you elaborate on what else might be disabled in WoE? Wondering if it might be anything more than FBH and GTB.

Hello there, of course. For the instant war of emperium, we will disable all the MvP cards and most of the miniboss cards. However, we will have the standard core-equipment cards enabled such as salamander for wizards or geminis for SPPs etc.
If you have any further questions, we would love to invite you to our discord channel. We could respond to any concerns or questions much faster there. Hope to see you around soon!
