RetRO has been great for the most part. The GMs are super friendly and helpful. The population has declined to around 50 average recently and public parties above lvl 60 are non-existant. Economy is okay but could be better. WoE has only 3 guilds playing with a Saturday night timeslot for EU. The community discord is sadly quite toxic with no in-game repercussion. Some balance changes have been questionable ie DEF and Trap changes. I really liked the server but it is quickly losing its charms.

This server is envisioned to be the same as euRO circa episode 6. While the server hardware and networking performs well, several major differences exist between this server and officials that harm that vision. First is the extremely low population. It is very hard to find parties at mid to high levels, woe is stale with only 3 guilds, and the economy is unstable. Second are customizations for "balance". Third is lack of events. Do not recommend starting here unless you have friends here.

The server is European, but i play from Brazil and iam finding several South Americans on the server, im happy cause i play calmly without lag. The server is visually clean (no visuals), real nostalgic. The staff until now answered all my questions on discord, as well the community being receptive. Server is even quite active. I hope it stays Old Times for a while.

RetRO is the most ballence and classic ro I've ever tried in a longgg time. if you feel tired of trying high rate server that makes you level alone, I think you should try RetRO. You will never level alone since many party in sageworm and other maps. The Halloween event will come soon, so join us and WOE scene seems great too here and competitive. Come join us!

pls always check the DDL files like the ijll and cps dll was always missing fix this pls but game was great and balance wait itng for its future upadates hoping more cards set and headgears balancing and stats and skill of all characters pls put reset stats and skills it will be very helpfull especially for those new comers and the distributing guide on first step was too confusing pls make it more easiear

This is back to original hardcore grind RO experience that I've been looking for since 2004. Playing solo here at the moment but I never feel alone, maps that are not too popular are not empty (like bib dun01/02). Discord community is alive and everyone are just friendly. Economy is good and as a new player I can get things going, for example selling cheap red pots. Everyone is so chill and Discord community is fun. Kudos to server owners for giving this classic RO experience. Come join!

Im a ro-veteran from like 2003 when i first played whole game. Im so glad to find this server since went past too many servers in history. Gm's been always helpful here and they are reasonable. There is constant updates. Woe's seem to have competiton between guilds. 1x rates are rough, but some nice QOL changes in server makes it alot nice. Market is bit small, but works. Totally get feeling of classic ro. Specially not able to dual client encourage ppl to party up.

my time at retro the good: pre-re and uptime. the bad: inconsistency, broken game mechanics, guild favoritism, poor economy. big exp exploit but honestly the bad part to me is different rules for different people on it. my take: either the staff had no idea and their fav guild systematically misled them on how severe it was thus they should be banned (and the staff isnt fit for the job), or the staff knew and let them do it anyway until we found out. either way I cant recommend

OK BIG WARNING. so there have been many incidents where the impartiality of the admin team was called into question, like guild members as GMs and the high amount of MVP cards, and IMO this recent one solidifies it. I would have to play a month w a good party to get the exp gain they were getting in a day using an exploit in a guild dungeon to pump out finished econ WoE characters in just 1-2 hours. staff changed it when it got out and did no rollback! discussion is being censored.

A guild abused a bug to get what is equiv to 50x exp rates for boosting chars up to high levels. This makes an already imbalanced server even more imbalanced and staff have glossed over this, dismissed concerns, and tried to sweep it under the rug. As the owner of a Bard that was leveled up to a decent level the regular way I cant help but feel a little shafted. As many notice woe was already doing poorly. Don't play here.
