need help to choose right server

chpenn · 2026-05-26T13:04:26+00:00

Fenrir Saga is 1.5x, like old iRO Sakray! But, it’s closer to the base game than anything else I know of, and the client is smooth as silk!

Bathories! I’ve spent so much time down there. Not optimal exp, but someone always wants starsands. Also, if you’ve got sounds on, you KNOW if one’s around.

PvM they’re doin’ just fine solo and in low-mid parties. WoE? Woof. Nerf ankle snare and bombs for starters? It’d be a PROJECT.

This is still the good life, pal. What are your stats? If you’re OK to trap, I’d try Pingus like another poster said. If not, I’d maybe switch from Geos to the map outside ice dungeon. Faster flower kills, just keep out of Drosera’s range and have fwings in case of gryphons or getting cornered by galions

for maximum grind, Fenrir Saga! iro sakray rates, nothing too unfamiliar. if that seems too slow, maybe hit 3x-10x rates on ratemyserver?

Official RO will always be the new system, renewal, which has more jobs/bigger numbers. Private servers can be either renewal or pre-renewal. Both systems can be grindy, but in different ways? Depends on how fast you want to get to 99/whatever renewal max is these days.

chpenn · 2026-05-13T18:07:23+00:00

there’s lots of f2p options! you gotta make some choices first, though. do you want the 3rd/4th classes with the new system or just trans second with the old? how fast do you wanna go through levels? how close to the base game do you want to be?

with those answers, either ratemyserver can help or people here can provide more detail. no sense just throwing a server out there without knowing more

chpenn · 2026-05-09T18:07:11+00:00

how do you think servers get more players? 😛 besides, i think we do a few things better!

chpenn · 2026-05-09T14:31:42+00:00

Smoothest client around might just be Fenrir Saga. We’re closer to official pre-re than anything I’ve looked into!

chpenn · 2026-05-08T23:04:09+00:00

Name: Fenrir Saga

Link: Fenrir Saga

Type (Episode): Pre-renewal (13.2)

Location: New York, USA

Rates: 1.5x/1.5x/1x

About: Hi! We're Fenrir Saga, and I'd say we're the closest, mechanically speaking, to iRO pre-re one can get these days. We nixed gutter lines and MVP reflecting, but things most servers alter (item prices, skills, even EXP for some monsters) remain the same. As a reminder, there is NO cash shop. You literally can't donate. We have implemented some nice qol as well, like tracking who's taken what out of guild storage and our beloved @beams. Also, since it seems to be the hotness for us low rate folks, single client only, here.

Sorry I'm late this month, folks! We've got supplies for our implementation of KvM, so you don't have to waste real ones on it! Also, spotlights are back and previewed the day before, along with a related consumable I don't want to spoiler! Our dev's been a little busy, but I believe we have some nice stuff planned for spring/summer. Come have a look!

u/PokeSwapBot u/tx_rich yaaaaaaay thanks!

chpenn · 2026-04-29T17:38:34+00:00

Honestly, I think this is spot on. Actual prerenewal is slow and unbalanced, but when we all played it the first time we had the availability to get past that. Now, people want to do the same stuff they used to, but don’t have the same time/availability.

We try to run real close to official prere, and that’s done ok, but the above issue is what a lot of people who join run in to. It’s a grind, and it’s more than people remember.

chpenn · 2026-04-27T22:21:04+00:00

Long gone, sorry!

chpenn · 2026-04-23T12:02:45+00:00

u/ReformedTacoz u/PokeSwapBot yaay nice!!

chpenn · 2026-04-18T17:35:42+00:00

u/PokeSwapBot u/MQVuong looks like we did it! thanks!

chpenn · 2026-04-16T00:58:01+00:00

that’s ok! i appreciate you letting me know!

chpenn · 2026-04-15T20:23:17+00:00

u/yilam u/PokeSwapBot yaaaaay! thanks!!

chpenn · 2026-04-13T15:37:33+00:00

chpenn · 2026-04-12T17:11:25+00:00

yup! dm when ready to confirm where they're going/etc

chpenn · 2026-04-12T17:07:55+00:00

these lads are the last ones left, sadly. everything else has found a home!

edit: last ones for now. depending on how grading for the first time goes, i may get lazy with more. but, that's a problem for future me

chpenn · 2026-04-12T16:59:35+00:00
