After a long time away, I wanted something nostalgic but with a little customization for freshness. This server scratches that itch quite well. Class rebalances are excellent, would even like more like this. Custom dungeons are very fun and replayable. Custom gear/cards are balanced and impactful.

I Played Payon Stoies server for 5 months, it's great, no pay to win, no donation required, if you want a classic server, this is it. This server is great for grouping with players, people are friendly and supportive. Playing Ragnarok Online with just one client is really nice because it's social and nostalgic. I love it. Thanks.

Very good server. Developers do a great job with custom balances, custom dungeons. I can highly reccomend playing here. Content is coming on a good pace. I do not have the feeling that I'm running behind at any time.

been playing for 2 months, community is small and friendly , gm's are kind and helpful. custom contents are great. however some classes are unwanted in leveling parties & that makes the experience of using the class unenjoyable and literally punishing. after being rejected multiple times because of my class this week & unable to join any party, perhaps its time to take a long break and play less. overall decent server.

Payon Stories is an amazing 1x server. Feels long term and worth investing the time. The community is also very mature and friendly. Personally loving the 2nd Jobs and how the server's pace is. If only this server had more WoE guilds attending. That would've been a winner!

I've thoroughly enjoyed my 11 months spent so far on this server. The community is vibrant, the server stability is commendable and I personally love the class balancing changes they have brought. The anticipation for the upcoming trans classes update in the near future has also got me very excited. All in all, its definitely a server that I would recommend for anyone out there looking for a RO experience just like the old days. It is definitely a server worth sticking around for!

Playing PS from the start, celebrating 1 Year in January i can say this is the BEST SERVER ive ever played on. NO "buy-shop" / no money transactions or anything like donations etc!! NO DONATIONS Lowrate server with great costum balancing of classes, also, TRANSCLASSES coming soon, also ENDLESS TOWER, NINJA, GUNSLINGER, TK-> SOON Never been a better time to join.

If someone is looking for lowrate and does not mind some custom stuff - good place to be :) Custom stuff (dungeons, class balancing) is made really well here. You can see that GMs really try to make this place as enjoyable as posssible. Oh and they do actually ban cheaters so that's nice too.

Honestly this server surprised me with the rebalances. Monster exp is redone very nicely and feels like a 2-3x rate (exp more tied to Mon HP I believe). The exp redo lets me level in multiple areas if I get bored now. Winter event is going and the games are fun. Also, immediately upon arriving, people were asking if I needed help and I appreciated everyone. Nice job all! I hope this server keeps on going

Finally a low rate server with only modest balancing changes. Server population is ok, the economy i think is superb, zero inflation. Exp rates are 1.5x with a bit of custom changes which is not too broken. More leveling places available than usually on other server due to the balancing. The community is welcoming and friendly. There are some custom dungeons that I personally haven't really tried yet, so dont know about that. The skill changes are modest, keeping the classic flavour. rating 9/10
