Longtime RO player here writing another review for what I think is a very promising server. For the past 1.5 years or so, I've been playing a couple 1x servers off and on and decided to give OathRO a try a couple days ago. And I must say I was very pleasantly surprised. I've been mobbing wolves with my Swordsman and more than once I thought; "Man this feels nice." and "This is how it should be."
There are certain features on here that feel really good to play with. One of those features is the global 200% increased SP and HP recovery rate. This also affects passive skills like the Swordsman's Inc HP Recovery and the Mage's Inc SP Recovery skills. All classes will have (some of) their skills changed/rebalanced to make them better and/or more useful. As far as I'm aware, this includes buffs and quality of life improvements such as; decreasing the sp of some skills, increasing the damage of others and increasing the duration of buffs.

Here is an example of the finalized skill changes/rebalancing for several 1-1 classes and the Hunter class:

Do note that a lot of these skill changes go live tomorrow! So you might want to join in now to take advantage of that.  /ok

I'll list some more qol features since I think these are one of the most important things. After all, when you spend hours grinding mobs, these are the little things that add up.

Item drop beams.
Rare drops will trigger a little bell sound and a colored beam so that you can't miss 'em. Also that extra oompf.
There are different colors for different item classes.

They also have the commands; @autotrade and @showexp and #main chat ingame.




All of these changes and qol combined make OathRO really nice to play on. While it is still technically a 1x server, the huge party bonus and the SP regen increase make it so that you feel a lot better than you would on a regular 1x server. From what I've seen so far, the owner knows what he's doing and is very open to input from the community. There's a good synergy going on there. I'm also very much looking forward to the things that Oathkeeper wants to implement in the future. The atmosphere overall wether it's ingame or on the discord seems very chill too. It's not uptight or full of chat rules that you might find in other servers. Since I've only been here for less than a week, I don't have much else to talk about for now, but will likely continue to update this thread as I get more familiar with the server and whenever new updates go live.

Definitely give the server a try if you want to!

Ofcourse, this is probably not accurate, but it definitely feels better. The proxies could give you a significant boost in ping.

Owner here. For sake of full disclosure, ping times listed aren't your end-to-end latency, but ping to the proxy server. That said, in some instances, the proxy servers can provide improved performance if your packets are being routed across inefficient or high traffic wires. We may add additional proxies to Tokyo and Sydney soon, so that you can more efficiently choose the route to get to our primary host site in Washington State (USA).

Still, we must obey the universal laws of physics and data cannot travel faster than the speed of light.  /heh

The balancing changes are well-thought-out, and it's fantastic that another server makes the classic setting feel new again. I just hope they redesign their website because I thought I was on TalonRO's.

Sucks to see this server being plagued with fake reviews about the player count and adjustments. Fishy how they hate on all other 1x servers but one server that's the most toxic and full of itself, makes you wonder if they are just alts logged in through a VPN. Good luck with the server!

As a fan of the sort of niche builds around skills that no one in their right mind would take... what a nice idea. I hope the slow start allows them to filter in changes with more success than having the mammoth task of rebalancing RO in it's late state.  There's so many skills in the game that you just never pick up, it's nice to see that given some love. Some things you just look at and wonder wtf Gravity was smoking (slow poison, anyone?). God, I'd love to see agi wizard made more viable. Fire Pillar and Frost Nova are so almost there. Or dagger hunter. Blitz beat working with daggers would be wild.   I wonder if they'll implement the broken Rogue skills along the graffiti path?

Shame it's a 1x though, having a third 1x server spreading out an already tiny demographic more thinly...it'lll suffer from the same low-pop-hell of having to farm all your own cards at 1x rates because there's not enough of a playerbase to supply the market.  A 2x or 3x would be really nice to fill the server gap at the minute.

Everything has a minimum chance of a 0.02% drop rate as there was a bug in official servers that gave everything a +0.01% chance to drop, and this has been made into a feature into the server. Low level mobs have been further enhanced by level 1-10 mobs being given an additional +0.02% chance of minimum drop rate (so cards or a Guard [1] by a Pupa will have a 0.04% chance to be dropped), and level 11-20 mobs gaining a +0.01% minimum drop chance to 0.03%. With a couple of other exceptions for monsters close to that level 20 but have extremely important cards, the drop rate for them is 0.02%.

Because of this, despite the server being 1x rate, people haven't had to struggle too hard to find cards and supply them to the market. Hunting a low level card is something that may take a day or three (depending on how many you need), but you won't be stuck doing it for weeks—and that's assuming someone hasn't already been selling it.

I've been playing this server fairly actively for the past few weeks, and I enjoy it for the most part.

Positives

I appreciate the amount of effort, thoroughness and transparency the admin has for the server. The server never has any stability issues, maintenance has always been run on time and as scheduled, and there has only been one random restart during my playtime so far.

Everything is very well-documented, from the thorough update logs and patch notes, to showing the server's financial details, to the breakdown of class distributions and amount of zeny on the server.

I appreciate that there are zero donation items, or any kind of reward system.

A lot of thought and community insight is put into balancing changes, and while they aren't groundbreaking changes, they do put a fresh spin on an old game.

I also like that dual-client is disabled, the beams when rares are dropped and the 0.03% card/rare drop rates for low-level mobs, such as Creamy, Vitata, etc.

Mixed

The community is mostly good and helpful, but there are strange characters and trolls. The server is mostly English-speaking, although I have noticed a lot of Brazilian and Filipino players, and the server is hiring a staff member who speaks Portuguese. From what I can see, it's largely the older population (people who have been on the server the longest) who bring about the most negative attention.

In general, there is a lack of staff online in-game. While the server is mostly self-policing and isn't of a size that requires a GM to be online at all times, it would be nice to see staff online more and interacting with the community outside of Discord.

NPC placement in Payon (main town) could be better. For example, the Promotions NPC is in Prontera, and when I was new, I came across this NPC to get Newbie rewards by chance. There's an Arrow Seller NPC in the top left of Payon, but it would make more sense to place this with the other convenience NPCs in the top area of Payon.

Negatives

The biggest issue with this server is the lack of growth. When I first started playing, there were about 80 people online and this number has largely stayed between 80-100 over the past two weeks, even with the Halloween event and release of 2-2 classes.

Outside of the Halloween event, there has been a lack of in-game events (events run by a GM). I can appreciate that there was a lot of detail and effort put into the Halloween event, but it doesn't require much effort to run an event in-game and interact with the community now and then, even if the prize is miniscule.

Closing Thoughts

Overall, it's a nice server, with a lot of potential and I am enjoying my time here. I think the community tries to help the server grow a lot, but there's only so much the community can do. You can see by the amount of reviews on RMS that people want this server to succeed.

Maybe less time put into niche content such as Halloween event comic strips and more time put into in-game events. I do think there should be Newbie rewards in place permanently, and that these rewards need to be communicated to new players.

I agree that this server is super great. Has it's flaws but I think the GM is probably one of the best I've encountered on the RO scene in terms of friendliness and a general understanding of RO mechanics and basic game design principles. Really good for people who love the 1x gameplay but want a bit of a new experience.  /lv

Positives
This server is awesome and nostalgic. I've been playing like 15 years ago.
Donation
NO cash shop. They don't accept any kind of financial support the server.

Mechanics
100% authentic. Light skills rebalance.

Stability
Absolutely NO LAG. Maintenance is usually 10 minutes only.

Cons
Low advertising. I think staff could promote the server in others websites beyond RMS like topragnarok and others.

I should update my review on OathRO sometime. A lot has happened during these past 5 months. The server has grown quite a bit in population and the customizations are pretty much done for the classes that they currently have. There's a lot more as well, but that deserves a more in-depth write up. WoE just started and from what I've seen the first one was pretty good. There's a lot of unique stuff to look forward to as well. There are some small things that I don't like, but those are more of a personal thing and aren't really worth mentioning. But long story short, I still absolutely recommend this server for anyone that is even remotely interested in lowrates.

WoE started on the server. At the moment there are 2 castles open and guilds are limited to 16-man rosters. So far there are about 5 active guilds participating and the competition seems good for strategic play for those who enjoy that aspect of RO.

Amazing server.  I can't recommend it enough to anyone who enjoys lowrate.  Oath actually manages to improve on the original's class design without distorting its spirit or disrupting a single classes' expected role or balance by making subtle changes to underused abilities.  I reconnected with quite a lot of old friends here, too! 

And, if you're a Talon refugee, we've got a guild for you with some familiar faces.  /kis

Post by: Celesss on Jun 28, 2022, 08:48 AM
I've developed some opinions but overall I love the server, here's my thoughts on it as a week old newbie /ok.

Pros
- Great class rebalancing, allowing for build diversity and some of the weaker classes are stronger now. The ones that aren't are planned to receive buffs.
- Partying has been incentivized with tap bonuses and other bonuses, meaning you'll find parties from 11 to 99 and never have to go it alone if you don't want to.
- Population is growing, most are American but it's slowly becoming more of a melting pot.
- WoE scene is still growing and guild competition is good due to the roster system.
- Server still feels like it's in the Spring of it's life, it's early episodically and trans isn't for another year so it's a comfortable start and I don't feel rushed. There isn't this huge looming pressure over you that you're late to the party, you feel right on time.
- Quite a lot of QoL changes while still keeping a classic feel, and for 1x it really doesn't feel that slow.... however you will absolutely notice the 1x drops.
- GMs and CMs are very active.
- Events, while sparse, are GM hosted and seem to be a lot of fun. I've only seen one in the week I've been here but it was a good time, and there seems to be a Summer event coming soon.
- Quite a bit of custom content, including a few new maps and mobs to fight.
- Old Payon is the main town, and I love Old Payon.

Mixed
- Server has no costumes aside from a few promotional ones and gear that can turn into costumes, making it look very bland. Good for the classic feel but really not my taste.
- An excessive amount of zeny sinks, even the stylist costs money. Good for the economy but as a new player I feel very discouraged by how costly it is to do... really anything. The phrase "Nothing in life is free" really holds true here.
- Soloing is extremely discouraged. No dual clienting + no real access to AB buffs(I'd kill for a 30 minute inn AB buff, this server has every other zeny sink in the world but that one), so you can't really solo how you usually would. Isn't a big problem for me but might be for some people who don't want to be forced to socialize, party, etc. I outright would discourage you from playing on this server if you prefer playing solo.
- Day/Night cycle. I personally hate Day as it's very bright and hurts my eyes, I wish it'd be permanent night, but some people probably like this.

Cons
- Somewhat Unfriendly community. If you enable #main you'll notice a good chunk of what's said there is insults/arguing, and a good amount of parties devolve into petty arguments. If you make a mistake, don't be surprised if you're kicked from the party for it. There are definitely a lot of kindhearted people, but after a week I've seen enough vitriolic behavior to at least acknowledge it.
- Just a personal gripe, The stylist costing tons of money and it being separated into 3 NPCs is awful. Nothing like spending 99k on a Stylist Coupon only to realize the hairstyle you wanted has a bugged palette with the hair color you have. Pretty soul-crushing.
- No scaled chat/UI. I don't have super good sight and everything is very small and difficult to read. Only a few servers have this QoL change but it's definitely a negative for me that Oath doesn't.

Closing Thoughts
I really like the server, I think the new player experience could use some work and I definitely think Inn Buffs (30 Minute AB) would allow for soloists to still play the server due to the dual-client ban, but I don't solo much so it doesn't bother me. Overall if you like party content, like WoE, want a pretty fresh server with lots of QoL and balance changes, I can't recommend it enough.

Thank you for all of your feedback, we will try to review some of the things you said about solo play and see what we can do to make the experience more enjoyable.

I think this is a terrible idea against support mains on a no-multi server, I know RO is painful to play without AB /gg but 30 minutes is definitely overkill, maybe a daily 30 minutes would be "fair".

You sorta proved my point here with why it would be necessary for solo play. Priests and other supports will always have a place, but you will no longer have to beg a priest to come along with you just to reasonably farm. Even doing small farming like Giearths for Elven Ears or Creamys for Creamy Card is incredibly unfun without AB and you can't just beg a Priest to come along with you to do that, nobody will be willing.

I mean sure if you are farming naked with an npc weapon it will take much longer but if you have a +9 comp with 4 Archer skele's or +7abl/gukk with 2 AS cards you'll be one hitting most things you would need to farm once you are 80+ if you're using the right arrows. Otherwise make friends, help each other hunt for what you need. The INN HP and SP recover is pretty abused by monks as is for min max combo spam. A 30minute AB would make it more abuse able by every class, even allow monks to drop getting agi and bless for other skills, not to mention how often it'll be used for MvP's as hunters really only need a priest for AB and a heal every now and then seeing as ankle snares are OP.

I did not, because
a, You got used to playing the game with constant AB from blatant multiclient usage
b, You played on servers that had NPCs for AB and HP/SP

Both take credit away from certain classes and a lot of people like to play supports and feel neglected because of such features but a server where these classes were fully utilized is extremely rare. (Bragi, HP, Brewing...)
It's not impossible to play without AB and a warper / healer and such, we just got used to the good stuff over the years and now we consider it fundamental. It's not impossible, just annoying a little. If people choose a classic 1x server with no multis, they also have to sign up for this ride.

I guess I just don't like to be forced to beg for help from others but I can see that some people have a lot of friends on speed dial who are willing to help them.

You absolutely need AB to farm at a higher level if you're farming anything above a low level mob, I can't really think of a class that doesn't need this unless you're a wildly geared. You kind of proved my point again by saying if you have this wildly overupgraded overcarded bow with the correct arrows you won't need it, but the reality is a newer player like myself who hasn't got a guild or an endless line of friends to back them up won't have access to that OR AB buffs, and it makes farming very difficult.

It's great to think that there will be someone to always help but the reality is that's not the case. The new player experience for going at it alone is very hard and punishing here and it feels bad.

Archer skeletons are level 31 in pay_dun01 not hard to get plus normally sells for about 500k each after a servers been alive for a few months. GC saders with npc gear and one andre card in the Haedonggum [1] can farm Raydric and Khalitzburg pretty easily at level 75+ both being a higher end mob. A hunter with nothing but a hunter bow[NPC] and fire arrows can farm Stings for glove[1] at level 60+, a knight with poo poo hat, thara card, and 3 orc lady cards can start leveling on high orcs at level 75+. A priest with nothing but a rod can farm evil druids and wraiths for their drops, there is plenty of good farming areas for npc to naked characters to farm to make some zeny on a server.

Now if you are talking about Thanatos Tower, Abyss Lakes, Niff where they were meant for geared up end game or party play of course you're not going to solo them anytime soon with a mind set you have. The buff heal NPC is better off left on 20x+ servers where you really never need to join a party in the first place. OathRO is great without such game unbalancing add ons. If you are living off having AB all the time you are honestly farming/grinding slower then a person that stays in the area the whole time unbuffed. As the 2-3 seconds you gain per 20kills is wasted getting rebuffed, so honestly only real need to be buffed is during party play against end game mobs[where you need the "over upgraded over carded gear"  /heh] not the remaining 90% of the game.

I'm also against buffer NPCs. The whole reason to disallow multiclienting is to make people actually want to party up with priests and other support classes rather than just making slaves themselves. And I prefer granting Agi and Bless is left to the people who decided to main a Priest.

I've been playing MR / HR all my life so switching to OathRO was tough but I don't regret it! OahtRO is great, everything is wonderful. It feels like I'm playing a brand new game. The community is very nice, people taught me how to party, nobody was mad at me. Whenever I ask for something, I get a detailed answer. The administration is very active and helpful. It's great that the server is not P2W at all. I feel great satisfaction playing on this server. I have not noticed any lags so far, I play on EU proxy. To all those who are looking for a server for these difficult times, I highly recommend OathRO.

for attraction rating, I love the lowered rates, I play on those servers quite often and because of the fact that there will be transcended class I would sign up. People kind of like the grind i feel like when you find 20+ people trying to kill sleepers, so I wanna download the game just for that

I tried your server and I liked it. The first and most important thing is that the connection is absolutely the same as if the server was in Europe. I have tried American and Asian servers and nowhere has there been such a good feeling from the gameplay. The second is good (in modern times) online number of players. This is already enough to try the server.

Yeah but that is the reality of playing any pserver, the owner can pull the plug at any time and you have no guarantees, and If I were you I would stop right there, KARMA is a b****, I heard the Owner of Oath is having serious health problems so you may want to deal back your finger pointing and mockery.

Isn't Lord J trying to RMT scam players on a few low rate servers right now? Not sure why you waste your time trying to talk so 'highly' of him. Plus Lord J knew nothing of RO pre 2018... He had to suckle up to people real hard to make sure things were in order, at least Oath has an understanding of the game and doesn't falsely claim his server "More official then official servers ever were".  /no1 /heh

Honestly if someone wants to try their hand with a perfect replica of RO from a specific point in time, I'd be fully supportive. It's an untapped market and honestly OathRO is only one type of server. So yes, if you have the passion to take on a different niche, more power to you and I earnestly would support your project.

As for my health, things happen randomly and it's hereditary, but I'm fine.

But yeah, kind of a bummer that things went the way that they did. I myself didn't play for that long on OathRO but didn't leave the server with a negative opinion of it, it was a fun twist on the game and was the work of passion of a lot of volunteers, and it clearly payed off looking at the population numbers it had achieved. It's sad to see a low rate server who a lot of people spent their precious time and effort into disappear because of a last minute, in the heat of the moment, decision.

It's a sad day for a lot of people, wish things hadn't gone the way that they did.  /...

To be honest, I think their attempts to shift the blame to the players is actually crazier than the corruption itself.
The funniest thing is that even with this gaslighting, damage control attempt by the staff to frame Oathkeeper as the "victim" and the community as the "offenders", he STILL stabbed his Staff in the back and deleted the entire server out of spite when they intended to continue running it without him.  /ok

I will say I have my own personal opinions on the matter irrespective of that announcement from yesterday.
Well, pretty much all of my feelings on the situation I already posted in the announcement today. I felt like I was stabbed in the back once already, but now it's twice within 30 hours from each other.

I'm still holding completely judgment until I get an explanation from him, if I ever get one, though eternal silence can be considered an answer too. Either way, I'm hurting.


To all of the players, thank you for joining the server that I helped to build. I'm sorry it ended like this. I would have kept it going. I was ready to keep it going and to help Dastgir transition despite my building health issues. Unfortunately the thing I helped build was ripped from me, without my opinion, my desires and wishes being considered, and without consideration from the 4,750 people we had on the Discord server. It was an extremely selfish act by him. I'm so sorry there was nothing I can do to prevent this. I poured every single day for the past 14 months of the server, barring some days like when I was hit by a hurricane, or the day my grandfather died, or the pain from my health was just too much to even operate. I did it all for free because I wanted it to be the best experience it possibly could be and to show my love for the game. I know I wasn't perfect, but I genuinely tried my best to be as fair and transparent with everyone. I'm sorry it was all ripped away from everyone in such a sordid act and that I cannot share the labour we worked on out of passion with people any longer.



Building a genuinely good server is not something you can do alone. It's a team effort that requires patience and pacing yourself. I wish Oathkeeper could have seen that sooner and stepped back more instead of trying to burden it all until it drove him to be hospitalized from stress and then burn everything to the ground. That kind of burnout wasn't due to any drama in the server. It was happening regardless of that. The drama didn't help of course, but it wasn't the main problem. He is ultimately the one that controls how much workload he manages and I would have just preferred that he just closed the server instead of burning every single thing; the server, all the work and I suppose, now my friendship with him. Even if I hear him out and forgave him, it don't believe it will be the same.

Just trying to perceive things based on solely, my information my dude.
Sorry to be frankly honest with you, but if your friend decided not to help you out when youre in the lowest form ( By this i mean financially helping you out ), but instead letting you go pledge for help and donations from the players just so you can financially recover from unexpected events, hes not your friend ( Assuming he was still financially stable at that time ). As a friend, i wouldnt let you post your personal information to the internet, as its free information for the baddies to take even more advantages out of your unexpected events ( Assuming your position as CM, u already got the bad end of it, blackmails and death threats with your address and info ). The things that i would do, is to refrain you from posting your personal information, and helping you either by: Emotional support or financial support, which im guessing he never did (?)
Just letting you know, for you to get better and move on

He did let me post that donation link when I got slapped with the tornado which he didn't have to do. While the money wasn't enough to keep me stable or comfortable, it helped save my family from going homeless.
There's been other problems too that I don't quite want to get into, like the situation of my mother's mental/physical health. 2022 hasn't pulled its punches against me, but I don't like to complain about it or talk about it because I know I'm not the only one in the world who has issues, and then some people have it worst, like what's happened in Ukraine. There's other times he has given me gifts too -- although I don't like looking at friendships as a strictly transactional sense. Had I the money, I would give friends gifts, too or help them with monetary needs -- though I fear my trust in who I would give things to now will remain tarnished for a very long time because of this. This is someone who I've known for nearly a decade by this point and not one in my opinion have I seen him capable of something like this. I've been completely blind-sided. I can only speculate because I'm still hoping for a response back and am hoping I'm not part of the bridge he's burning.


He gave me $300 last night when he resigned from the server, though I'm not even sure how to feel about that right now. $300 for 14 months of the server isn't exactly reasonable wage, but I never did do it for the money. I had been asking to get paid for the past couple months (not demanding it, but it'd be nice to), because money is still extremely tight, but I would have continued working on the server regardless, just at limited capacity. Not being able to eat every day limits how much you can do, and I guess unlike him, I know my limits a fair bit better. More money would mean I would have been able to help more, better, alleviate more stress, sort of make it a psuedo "full-time-job" until I could secure proper income and then I wouldn't have even cared if the money stopped rolling in. I just wanted to be able to do more for him and I knew he was overworking himself too hard.
Maybe it was too greedy of me or maybe I expected too much? I just thought it could be salvaged if we reorganized a bit and made some critical changes to help alleviate the stress and workload and to allow him to live a healthier lifestyle.

All I condemned, in my own personal opinion as a person, and not as a community manager on a different server, is an admin lying and deceiving people. And when Oathkeeper did that to his own server, I condemned that too all the same.

It is already explained on the quote, they dogpiled onto the server constantly, them and their minions constantly attacking the server and the people that played on Travels all with this high horse attitude where they behaved as the arbiters of truth and morality LMAO, then after the fact constantly bragged about being the best server, being number one on the listings and they kept pouring salt on the injuy, they kept using TravelsRO as a means to put themselves above and showing how much moral superiority they had over LordJ etc.

LMAO its KARMA

But to be fair not only provoked by them alone, all the Travels Haters brought this into themselves, there goes your perfect server with perfect administrators down the drain.


Uh... no?

TravelsRO kept making fake negative reviews for OathRO (not too many, like, 4 or 5), and I posted on my opinion, and I said I hope we never become like Lord J.

The last bit apparently didn't age well, because Oathkeeper is acting far worse than J, chargebacking all of his staff like this and not even saying anything; and that almost directly after saying he'd pass the reins to everyone else and paying them in the first place.


If you think me just saying my opinion on Reddit and here and on the Discord server that server owners shouldn't abuse their players and deceive them is karma and shouldn't be doing vote manipulation and making sock puppet accounts is justified "karma" then I honestly don't know what to tell you.

Typical gaslighting attempt of a coward with no arguments left.

Enjoy KARMA



I rather this happen to me then end up being the type of person you are behaving as right now, to be honest.

Thank you for reminding me that my life isn't completely bottom of the barrel, despite everything that's happened in the previous 48 hours. I'll use that as strength to continue going forward and to reaffirm to not be that type of person ever, regardless of the circumstances.

He's charged back me and the rest of the staff.

I'm honestly speechless and don't know what to say. I'm not blocked but he's still not responding to me.



I guess you were right Rainer. I don't even know anymore.

I just digest the informations that i got and make a point out of it. Doesnt mean im right and neither am i wrong, as truth is a matter of perspective.
I guess dont take out the bad stuff and criticise only the problems, u learned how to deal with certain situations, how to govern your community, how to work with others towards a vision. These will help you tremendously towards your future, and think about this as just a pace of life.

Now if you want to build something new, the core foundations are still there. Make it a fun project to connect with your friends, and maybe start something out of it in the future?  /heh

Dastgir and I are considering options. That's at least the good news; there are options we can do instead of being completely s*** out of luck (even if none of them are great), but if such a thing happens sooner rather than later, I won't be a community manager; just a moderator. At least for a good while. Or maybe I will just take a more off to the side-lines role. I'll have to see. It all really depends on my real life situation and if the staff who were affected can combat this fraudulent charge back he has issued.

Obviously Klungoko is lungo and his original account is muted for breaking other rules before, so he can't post and made a new account.  Of course that is against the forum rules, it is NOT karma but by the rules we have to remove his posts and his new account.

Guys and girls, please stay on topic, this topic should be about OathRO.

I will lock the topic from here, for the continuation of OathRO discussion, please use this topic instead:
