Beloved Server Features

[Guest]

i think its safer to say its like finding hay in a needle stack



but i'll head back on topic...

anything cute
any super super low rate
anything official =3

A few more..

• Servers with custom quests that have a story to it instead of 1 NPC for an item.
• Servers that use a valkyrie style warping system, where only certain kafras will warp you.  More exploration is fun and (from experiences on my paladin over on iRO valk) you can end up finding parties are unexpecting places, and they usually go well.
• Any server that doesn't revolve around WoE.  Some servers I have seen have changed a lot of the mechanics just to make WoE fairer, which makes it harder on the non WoEing players.
• Custom Maps / Mobs.  I don't care if the map or even the mob sprite looks tacky, the fact that they take some time to do this shows some degree of professionalism.

- Good, friendly community
I love a server with a friendly community, as I'm sure many others can agree with.  I personally spend a lot of time just lazing around & chatting on RO, so a good friendly community to talk to is quite important for me.

- Day/Night settings
Not important, but it gives a nice touch.

- Reset NPC
At one point, I hated seeing this NPC on a server.  Now, I love it.  I'm quite fussy with my builds, and often find myself changing my builds when I play these days.

- Stylist (custom hairstyles/dyes.. etc)
Again not an important feature, but it's a nice one to have.

- Useful commands
These would include @autoloot, @mi, @ii, @away, @autotrade, @whodrops, @whosell & the @duel commands.

Kinda sleepy atm, so I'll add more later when I think of some.

I'd like a decent population, no corruption, 99/70 and pretty fair rates, ok card drops, little to no asswipes, resetters, no skill changes to make things "balanced", BELL RIBBONS OBTAINABLE!!! that's a plus......I love bell ribbons.

Rates high enough that I can reach 99 with about a week of work at the most.

Minimal population.

Lets see.

• @autoloot
• @showexp
• Custom head gears that do nothing but look good.
• 1000 gold to start players off
• and just enough corruption that it sparks a bad review on RMS (lol j/k... or am I)

Pretty much this. Also, Healer and Resetter NPCs.

Well personally I'd like to see that giant list of ideas I posted get implemented, I had a server going that was going to do them but we broke up when I decided to go to grad school and they all got jobs instead. In general, though, I want to see more customization and more balanced play. My idea of the perfect server:

Rates around 30/30/30
No Trans Classes; Merge the balanced trans skills down into the 2nd classes and give them 70 job levels. Remove the broken ones altogether (goodbye Soul Breaker lol; yes there were others, but everyone knows SB)
Gunslinger and Ninja get FINISHED; they become 50 level classes, and specialize to Gunner and Duelist; the former gets the heavy weapons, the former gets Desperado and both get some new skills.
Custom Hybrid Classes; I'd finished Samurai (Swordsman/Archer), and had ideas for several others
No donation item bull; pretty things are good, breaking WoE is not.
Narrowing of the drop tiers; goodbye 0.01%s; instead a challenge system will be added to get the rarer drops of monsters. Think sort of like achievements or set battles, where you have to fight under harsher conditions, or solve a puzzle, etc. One of the examples was, if you defeat any of the unique swords solo without using skills, a "broken blade of foo" will drop and you can make foo (executioner/mystletain/grimtooth).
Cards would work differently along these lines as well; the cards that would become unbalancing would be changed.

It would make a very new game, and in the end a much better one.

Stat/skill resetter
- This is a must for me. I won't even consider a server without resetters. The fact that it may take months to get a maxed out character only to mess everything up dueto few misclicks wiht stats or skills? And be stuck in one build which may be incredibly sucky for leveling. Nothx.

Custom quests, and I really mean quests.
- I hate it when servers advertise with "we have hundreds of custom quests" and when you go in there you see they have hundred headgear mixing quests. Go to NPC > Get items > Go to another npc . Is an extremely boring quest type and gets old fast even if you have lots of custom headgears. A quest should be something with at least a small storyline. Mixing quests are jsut boring.

Friendly GM's
- There's nothing worse than having a blunt annoying GM. Even though he'd do his job it's not very pleasant if he feels like he'd rather just piss on the server than do it.

Cares about PvM as well
- Something I've been seeing in a lot of servers is that they only seemto focus on PvP/WoE with their "balancing" issues compeltley neglecting PvM and any balance on that. PvM can be broken as well contrary to common belief. And it is one of the most important aspects of the game.

A staff that doens't censor
- If players have something to say they should have the opportunity to say it. If it's well argumented and written in a mature way there should be no reason for GM's to censor it even if it directly accuses them of something. If the GM's are not corrupt there should be no reason to not allow players to express their concearn towards the team. It's much better to have the GM team publically correct any misunderstanding the community may have rather than deleting everything.

Something to try and get rid of the retarded things Gravity does
- Balance via item rarity? If a Kiel card is 0.01% drop rate that doesn't make it any more balanced than if it would be 100% rate. Justifying broken items by saying "But ti's so ahrd to obtain" is stupid. If an item is broken it's broken unless you fix the item itself.
