Great server. The GMs are always looking to improve the server, and are dedicated to getting, and keeping, new members. The events are always fun, and the prizes aren't big enough to ruin the economy. Try Eternity for a day or two, you should like it.

Decent server, to say the least. It has a lot of "unique" features. They removed some nerfs, and applied new nerfs. For example, Assumptio is splashed if casted on yourself, but Thor has mobs that reflect [supposedly]. The economy is very weird. Prices are very random, and you can make money easy.

Thors for quite a long time now, have mobs that reflect attacks, its called shield reflect, an official edit by kRO/and eAthena, seeing as we follow kRO standards. Princes tend to fluctuate since we don't wipe, so they'll always change.

Want money? Play here. Want fun? Run away from here. Boring events. Basic Custom NPCs. Low Player Count. You can find a better server with the same rates, easily. The ONLY thing this server has going for it, is cash prizes, and I'm not 100% sure if they are real. Also, the GMs are inexperienced and speak HORRIBLE English.

Really awesome server. We really need more guild competition though! GMs are extremely awesome. Server is always updated with the latest eAthena every week. We recently got Sealed Shrine, for anyone that's interested in it. This is a great server if you enjoy mid-rates. I highly suggest at least trying it out.

Quick review. Some of the GMs don't even understand or know the server's rules. Their helpfulness is quite low as well... A guildie of mine had an issue with a Quest script, and I was able to solve it quickly while the GM had no idea how to fix it. Economy is stupid, but you make money so easy it's not a big deal. The server needs to stop making NERFS. Especially regarding exp, in the end it's gears that matter. Overall, a good server, needs some work here and there. Rage is growing fast. ;3

Not the worst server out there, but a lot of little problems. Community can be very rude. A lot of BR/Pinoy players that are selective about who they play with. GMs are offline 95% of the time, and GM Shilou recently did an "Event" where you had to collect Tiger Footskins, and then proceeded to summon tons of Eddgas to help the players do so, which is not good. Healer NPC has a ridiculous, unnecessary 10 minute cool-down, forcing you to save in an Inn all by yourself for most of your gameplay.

I'm sorry you feel this way, our new GM has said sorry about the event and such events wont happen again. The healer NPC has a cool-down due to champs ASURA bombing, it adds more balance and not all one class sided, GM's are online when they can be, we do have our own lives to live, to me the community is great, they are always helping others and new players, In my eyes that a great community! I don't have any problems with other nationalities playing, Real-RO is a server for all cultures.

Very unique and fun server. Not many 100% Renewal servers yet, but this one is definitely good! GMs could be a bit more professional, but you'll rarely find that anywhere... The rates are perfect as well. Early levels go fast, and the late-level grind isn't bad. Possible to trans in one day, or even trans > 3rd job in one day if you're really into it and know your leveling spots. Anyone looking to try Renewal should definitely check this out.

This server is exceeding my expectations. On the very first day it had upwards of 20 people. That alone was very surprising. The player count goes up and down, but it's overall increasing, with good reason. The GMs/DEVs are fairly knowledgeable, and get things fixed fast. They know how to pace the server as the population increases, and I guarantee it will. I'm very pleased with this server, as someone who doesn't normally get a lot of fun out of RO anymore, it's been very entertaining!

I've had a mostly positive experience with Nova so far. Biggest issues honestly were the default commands/channels that were enabled when I made a character. Seeing tons of PVP/BG/chat spam when I start a server is unappealing. Eden quests feel like they need to be reworked for how fast you progress, hard to do as a group of varying levels. Leveling pace is fun. Staff seems pretty nice, website is professional. Probably not going to find another Renewal server with this population.

Overall fun server. Rates are at a good spot where leveling/farming is pretty quick but not too quick, and you can get exp/drop buffs pretty easily from playing. A fair amount of custom changes to classes to make things more fun, and more to come. You can earn all of the cash shop items without spending money by just participating in events and whatnot. Haven't had any big issues here and the admin is pretty active. Give this one a try for sure.
