It's on my checklisted, mobs, mobs spawn, warps, and skills



 other checklist, in older episode, there's different negative status, guild skills, cards,
but due to lack of information, i'd just take it from older source web archive T_T

The HP/EXP is more-or-less accurate, but the two apple drops at the end for spore tell me that this is a new mob DB "backported" to an older episode state. Those two apple drops for spore are actually strawberry and poison spore and should therefore be removed. The person backporting the mob/drops DB just replaced the newer items with apples as a quick hack.

And it being episodic is also always nice to have, even if it's a rather fast update path like a new episode every 2 months.

Also, whenever you decide to get the server online, please let us know in this thread too!

A truly classic server with next to no customization, and the most important as mentioned by other people: original monster stats, exp table and spawn. Pretty trashy when a server claim being classic and then you see the updated Wolf exp. Or updated mob map location and spawns. Something like KokoRO.

Also, don't make the mistake thinking nostalgia is tied to old client or old UI. It's not. New clients and new UI is one of the best things to ever happen in this game. Or example, Battlemode was very limited and not nearly as good as what came after it.

Quote from: Playtester on Sep 01, 2023, 04:55 PMMonster stats from before episode 10 is the thing I always check first to see if a server is truly classic.

I even made a thread about that a while ago: https://forum.ratemyserver.net/server-discussion/classic-and-pre-renewal-close-to-official-servers-not-so-official-after-all/

ah... i see
but while i developing mine, i'd realize old skill formula is minor different with pre-re skill nowadays.
I think it can be a good point

Tried to do related your topic, and mine is already smooth. But nice details to that, will try to add it and see it can be smoother than now.

2. Only if you use the proper iRO skill and Class names.

No Clown -> Minstrel
No Professor -> Scholar
No Bragi -> Magic Strings
No FiNgEr OfFeNsIve -> Throw Spirit Sphere
etc.

And also, only if you have multiclient enabled and also allow dgVoodoo2.

QuoteLow rates (less than 5x/5x exp) with no item mall, no cash point, no modification, no battle manual, no RMT. It just pure classic and free to play. Are you guys willing to play?

I'd say except rodex and maybe battle manual, there're plenty of servers out there that are just like that.
The old UI is well, old. There's really no benefit to it other than the nostalgia and probably quite a number of downsides, now that hardware and software is vastly different from back then.

IMO there're more important things that give the nostalgia feeling, like the fact that every job class has already been researched to hell and back, and you no longer discover anything new.

Hello RMS community,

I'm wondering to any new classic p.server nowadays, sometimes they called themself "old school" or "play like 200X (year)", but there's a lot of modification. In fact, none of them brings a nostalgic vibes to me.

I'd say most of them have good features, and good graphic. Even they are building wikis of their server which is pretty good.

Back to topic, I still questioning to RO players this day (who still played RO) :
1. What makes you guys enjoy playing classic server? The rates, or their unique features (low rates pre-re combined with their creativity feature)

2. I'm planning to make a old school classic server which has old UI (SS dropped below). Low rates (less than 5x/5x exp) with no item mall, no cash point, no modification, no battle manual, no RMT. It just pure classic and free to play. Are you guys willing to play?


I'll not telling you server I develop yet. because this topic is not meant to promote, i just want your opinion about my 2 question. You'll see on server listing once i publised the server.

Thank you ^^

You should definelty try RagnaHeim, opened 2 weeks ago, almost 800 onlines, low rates with an amazing customization. Its SO fun. Give it a try, its a must right now. Been playing tons of server lately and this is the one.
