filthy idlefags
go play cookie clicker

>bots your population away

I didn't idle with it, I used it to kite MVPs and group up mobs for SPHERE EXPLOSION
also thothai was fucking great for PVP/WOE

The ragnarok card system was fukkin neato. Encouraged grinding and led to some interesting builds using unique card abilities.
I remember I had a bow rogue with a card on the bow that let it use double attack.

Was seriously considering playing a private server lately and thinking of going with ZenRO because I don't have time to dick around leveling and just want to hang out.

Basic Information:
•Max Level: 99/70
•Exp Rates: 1,000x
•Drop Rates: 100x
•MVP Drops: 10x
•Normal Cards: 1%
•MVP Cards: 0.01%
•Episode: 13.2

Whatcha think, Sup Forums?

ghostring pls

The best part is that the game wasn't even orginally built upon cards, because the developers didn't believe people would grind the amount they did.
The expectations were that people would party out in the world, hit shit to level up and randomly get cards on the way.

Does anyone actually still play this game?

I dunno.. sadly I think every server is just played by pinoys and BRs nowadays.
Whenever I get a craving to revisit, I just load up my own rAthena RO server and play on that alone for a bit :(

wasnt double attack sidewinder card?

>Exp Rates: 1,000x

why even bother playing, if you can reach max level by killing 1 poring?

>getting to level 99 on 2000 XP
I don't think so, chumpo.

for the reason I said?
I still want to hang out, meet/talk to people, and hunt MVP cards from time to time but not worry about boring ass leveling while other people are doing the fun stuff.

The most fun I've ever had on this game was a 30/20/30 server with 1% drop rates on cards and 5 minute respawn on all MVPs.

>I still want to hang out, meet/talk to people, and hunt MVP cards
You have forgotten the fact that this happens while leveling, not after hitting max level.
RO has the literal worst maxlevel-experience.

>best part of the game is building up for grind
>boring ass

When did you started to play RO?

My greatest accomplishment in Ragnarok Online was trolling the lv 90s in my server as a Swordsman (lv 99) with the Smokey card (lets you use Hiding).

Imagine you're just walking around PVP Zone with your bros and this motherfucking Swordsman (not even a Knight) comes out of Hiding and one-shots you with Bash.

Also if you use Hiding while someone is casting a spell on you, it cancels it.

You must be 18 to be here.

I play on novaRO, but not for the good experience or for having fun, I do it for the RMT.

Sorry if leveling isn't my idea of fun.
I prefer meeting/talking to people while chilling in towns, and doing endgame stuff like endless tower, and MVP hunting. Bite me.

...

Not that guy, but I remember some people enjoyed going into WoE with no guild, as a Novice, and activated Play Dead right past the gates. IIRC, only a Professor could cancel it or something.
There were many ways to annoy people - I still remember when Icicle Wall (the spell that makes a wall of ice, I don't know the name in English) was banned in WoE for a few months in my country because people kept trapping everything with it.

Prontera Sewers grinding. The first time I was yelled at by arriving late at my job. I was killing those fuckers for 2 hours straight.

>be ass ass in

how did that even work?

>endless tower
>playing RO when was already dead

You didn't play RO.

I want to like restart, but like everything else gravity just let it turn into a moshpit of bots, gold selling and hyper inflation.

Restart was a good idea, but it's doomed to be shit under current gravity.

uh okay. You sound really bitter calling it dead when you personally stopped having fun with it.

On no, restart is warpportal stuff
meanwhile on gravitys re:start-like server

also if you thought iRO had bad bots, you should've seen early kRO up till 2008

It's because the game changed so much it became completely different that used to be.

wow, so you mean like the time 2-2 classes were released?
anyone who defends bard automatically defends renewal, acid bombs and general shite that shouldn't have been implemented

>is a drops card

What am I looking at?

cash shop consumables
reminder that their current max level is 60

I always disliked high rate servers BECAUSE it was full of idiots who liked to stand around town with their kawaii headgear or whatever the fuck. The easy leveling experience means they know jackshit about the maps/enemies/weaknesses/drops/builds or pretty much any kind of mechanic that would actually be beneficial in those endgame situations. Going to MVP something like Valk or Beelz with a bunch of fucking scrubs is just a clusterfuck.

>guild leader lets you borrow Solar God Helm and +9 Ghostring Muffler

...

lmfaaaaaaaooooooooooooo xdd

I remember my first moment as Renewal came out
I was a whitesmith

I have no idea but I loved to grind strong monsters with triple katar hits. It felt so good.

Double attack equipment/cards allowed you to use double attack on any weapon, rather than just limiting it to daggers.

The card specifically said that if you knew Double Attack the card wouldn't work, yet Assassin could card their Katars with it and get level 10 Double Attacks while attacking.

>The card specifically said that if you knew Double Attack the card wouldn't work
Yes.
For Daggers, the card wouldn't work.

But you're an assassin who learned Double Attack to change classes. If the card doesn't work on daggers it should specify properly. They should add something like "if your weapon already activates Double Attack, this card takes no effect" or something, to make it more clear.

I wonder what he is doing right now

STOP TALKING ABOUT THE GAME AND GIVE SERVER

We had a guildie in iRO who just shat out cards on accident, people would always take said guildie to MVP hunting because everyone believed in some sort good luck charm character to the person or something along the lines of that.
no, no pserver shilling

those were simpler times

>play on euRO Chaos
>find both slotted boots and a Matyr Card while just leveling
>play on euRO Loki

Do you believe in destiny?

>guy sells me Drake card cheap because "it's effect is bad
>give it a try
>melt people in pvp
So size DOES matter after all.

who here playing extreme RO

fuck the renewal mechanics

Anyone remember when Assassins could equip an arrow with an status effect and activate the status with Grimtooth because that skill was treated as long range? Shit was hilarious and so useful for grinding.

>go to PVP
>annoy people with Grimtooth attacks that froze them in place unless they had carded armor

> mass grinding with a stun arrow to keep enemies cluttered together for maximum killing efficiency

leika-ro.net
Thank me later.

>tfw used to live in sg but too dumb and move to EU and cant play

>early levels of grimtooth counted as melee
>pre-renewal gunslingers desperado was counted as melee
>shield chain was counted as ranged
>despite the server having hard-coded rules that anything above 4 cell max cast length was ranged

>MATK +30 +1%
>Cash shop

>80 players

I'm in Thailand and I'm playing sg server no problem, doesn't look like they got region limitations for the mysg server

it's not 30%, it's just 30 flat

speaking of cash items I really hate their p2w foods, it completely fucks over the freebie food

>online:80

lol no

>I'm playing 1600 km away from server no problem
>I'm playing 10000 lm away from server
Gee, I wonder if there'll be a difference.

I know it's 1%, but +30 MATK with +1 MATK is still pretty good considering how annoying it is to get more MATK in Renewal.

PS: Don't fall for any renewal servers being advertised here, Leika is just a /vg/ meme that someone posts for laughs but I know the other "big" one with the faked player pop takes its shilling very seriously

>734 merchants
When I was on Nova I thought there was only about 200-300 merchant bots until I went to other towns to do hat quests.

Unlike other renewal trash servers, this one is much better. By combining jRO and kRO content, plus its own adjustment, this was proven to be the hardest Ragnarok server ever. You could say it's the Dark Souls of Ragnarok.

thank you /vg/ your memes always have spice

lmao this nigger i bet you are from /vg/ oh wait.

>combining jRO and kRO content
So you have to whale AND grind to do good against MvPs, instances and WoE?

Fuck off nobbashill.

>default drop rate on cards
>mvp card farming

It took me nearly a month to get my GTB

No, some of the adjustment is to remove all kinds of p2w things.

welp this was a good thread until /vg/ came along
private servers, not even once

It's okay, we know you're shitposting ironically.

>Summon Baphomet Jr. in the entry of prontera sewers

i think its pretty good, drop rates are good for making money
good that you found a high rate server that only has 99/70, so many servers have more levels to allow you to skill everything, it ruins builds imo

but you'll never have instacast which sucks

>fw out

Protip: dont fall for renewal servers, ever.

>but you'll never have instacast which sucks
wow all you have to do is make a bard alt and have your magicman at 1 dex have instacast
truly ebin

While most of the stuff on the warpportal version isn't quite as bad, there's still a few creepers that get in that screams P2W at the to of its lungs.

The amistr bag is the new one with
+1 to all stats
Socketed [1]
Greed
1% Bonus exp/drops for every 2 refines (+1% for +2, +2% for +4, +3% for +6, etc)
if +9 or higher recovers 3sp on Melee, Ranged, or magic kills.

Might not be as obscene as the heroic backpack, but in restart it is literally the best garment in the game.
The people on the WP forums have such deep rooted battered wife syndrome that they actually defend this item.

Lots of KRs complained and stopped playing after seeing all that bullshit. I have faith gravity will change that

Protip: Don't play RO after 2008 in the first place unless you're botting or something
>I have faith gravity will change that
You do realize that gravity is retarded, right?

the card said that the DA level it provides gets ignored if you already have the DA skill

>1% Bonus exp/drops for every 2 refines (+1% for +2, +2% for +4, +3% for +6, etc)
>if +9 or higher recovers 3sp on Melee, Ranged, or magic kills.
>Equipment gets destroyed upon upgrade failure
I fucking hate RO's cash shop.

galo sengan

Whatever happened to that mobile version of Ragnarok?
Is it going to be a chinaland game forever?

You can't get instant cast with rebirth jobs now? AoA + 2 orleans gloves (zerom) + survivor rod (drops) + some dex carded armor + blessing?

post the baphomet screenshot

Gravity wont change shit, and they literally can't even, they had less than 300 people playing in three servers combined in 2015

To this day, they're in a worse state than jRO or iRO
literally not an issue thanks to safe refine tickets

>not going on a 500/500 server and getting enough dex to instacast
baka

fellow euRO brother

Still not as stupid as FAW or backpack, though. +1 stats mean nothing in renewal, exp bonus is shit, sp recovery is nothing with woe pots, the only good effects are greed and drop rates.

Sup Forums hack + botting community when

You'd have to go to /vg/ for that.

Ah yes, let me go to a community and a thread that don't exist.
