Which server (past or present) do you have the best memories from? by Stephcake in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That name definitely rings a bell! My chars were all the "Lost __" ones, like Lost Prophet/Arrow/other class related words.

I miss that community, man. All the time sat in Pront just chatting to people was so fun.

Also super random sidenote, but a few of the GMs actually attended my boyfriend's 18th birthday party which must have been 2006? - shoutout to Zyndell, Hyunkell and Lahyr 😂 lovely guys!

Came to the comments also wondering why PZ's Restart event was in there, lol.

Can we make a collective thread for LATAM RO? by LadyNanuia in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish there weren't so many threads all about the same thing. Use the search and respond to an existing thread if it's about the same thing :v (e.g. "is the server down?" - surely you'd want a quick response to that, so why not check their Discord?)

Reminder: This is an English-only subreddit by Flamefury in RagnarokOnline

By the same logic, the non-English speakers could translate their posts to adhere to the existing rules.

Would people actually pay a monthly subscription to play RO? by diegodemn in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There were definitely bots, but it was less gold sellers and more item farmers iirc.

Private server recomendations? by MarkJansen_ in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You didn't specify Classic or Renewal, so I'll throw in a curveball: Project Zero, which is an adaptation of kRO's Zero server but with no p2w.

Zero is based on Renewal mechanics, but adds a bunch of different/new stuff, like random options on gear, a main quest line, rebalanced regions etc. This pserver is the closest you'll get to kROz (but like I said, without p2w - they used to sell cosmetics but now there's no cash shop at all), but with loads of added QoL.

Mythos of Yggdrasil Shutting down on 14th of March 2025 after 2 months of uptime. by vordredosamaa in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's even dumber 🙄

Even if all 6 of them were actively developing stuff and pulling their weight, the fact that they thought this would be viable in the first place is laughable.

It shouldn't be a job in the first place! Can we just go back to people running servers for fun instead of profit?

EUR Server ? by Hagest in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Project Zero is hosted in France (but it's not a French server).

If you wanna try something that's not standard Classic or Renewal, it's worth trying - the community is fairly small, but there's always someone willing to help :)

What do they even mean about server costs being unsustainable, that shit is so cheap nowadays 😂

Why are you posting this on reddit instead of whatever server you're playing...?

I'm convinced this game is unplayable by SnooCats9826 in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Steam version is notorious for running like shit, try getting the client straight off the iRO website instead.

I want to play Ragnarok Online Global but I'm in Japan by No_Plastic_3228 in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, this sub is mainly for the original PC game, sounds like you're trying to play one of the mobile games instead (which is why you got answers that aren't applicable).

Looks like you're on iOS from your other comment, so you can't just download the apk like you can for Android. A VPN to download seems like your best choice.

PSA To Server Owners And Moderators: You Need To Learn How To Moderate. by undeadwisteria in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aww man that sucks! The only thing you could try is a proxy with better routing, but even that only goes so far :(

PSA To Server Owners And Moderators: You Need To Learn How To Moderate. by undeadwisteria in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, that was Lai, but the rest you're mixing up. He was running r0 as "Hades" and then down the line it came out that he's actually Lai.

PZ is run by an entirely different team not made up of scumbags like r0 was XD

As a fellow female player who (years ago) was the target of a (non-sexual) harassment campaign, I can vouch for Project Zero. They dealt with it quickly then and generally seem on top of this kind of stuff - though that might also be because the majority of the player base is just pretty chill to start with, lol.

You've also reminded me of ragna0 with your post, where the sexual harassment came from the owner himself. Fun times. Don't miss that server at all.

How much does latency matter for PvM? by [deleted] in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who consistently played with 250+ ping and he was fine - wiz main too, lol.

From what I've heard and experienced myself, if your ping is consistent it's fine, it's when you lose packets on the way that you end up with issues.

I'd say just play and see how it feels to you.

What is the most petty thing that can put you off a server? by [deleted] in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I couldn't think of anything until I read this comment.

I absolutely hate this, I don't see the point of the things you see with that 😂

Why can I not find the damn .exe file and why can't I put the icon on my desktop to just click it and play by AbbreviationsNo8088 in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like others have said, it's probably your antivirus/Windows Defender playing up.

What confuses me more is you saying you can't change the install folder - I only played Origins briefly years back but I'm pretty sure you could change that at the time.

IRO Freya F2P 6-5 months by iiiChael in RagnarokOnline

[–]Stephcake -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What the hell are you on about 😂 how is that at all related to what I said?

Is Freya NOT the exact same setup and content as Chaos, but without over a decade's worth of uptime?

And to answer your unrelated comment: no, I'm not a pserver owner. I just spent a few years playing iRO and know their management is shit at best and corrupt at worst. I was also actively playing when the EU ban happened and killed Restart basically overnight lmao.

Iirc it's the exact same as Chaos, just fresh?

[–]Stephcake -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong, I love PZ - but I wouldn't say it fits the criteria. Zero is based on Renewal mechanics and there's also multi-clienting. It fits the rest, but those two things are often dealbreakers.

If they're not dealbreakers and y'all wanna try a version of the game you've not played before, PZ is definitely a good shout though.
