A friendly and stable server. Custom content is extensive and interesting, adding new options for leveling. Party play is limited due to it's low population though the release of abyss 4 is successful and a lot of fun. Majority of the community can be found on discord, questions regarding the server and gameplay are answered quickly and is generally helpful. Highly recommend trying it out.

Hero has always been my go to server. It's fun, with lots of custom content. It has a discord, and the GMs are fairly active. The player base is generally friendly, with some groups being extremely insular and semi hostile to out groups. If you're coming for WoE, you're facing an uphill battle, and I'd give it a pass. Otherwise, great community and pretty friendly.

PvE scene : 4.5/5 <3 a lot of friendly people helping out newbies and veterans alike, partying up with them has always been a blast! PvP (WoE) scene : 0/5. To put it lightly, it's a stage 4 cancer patient with uncontrolled diabetes and heart failure. Only 1 active castle permanently held by 1 guild God items locked behind castle rewards This means if you want God items = suck up to the guild holding the castle My 3 encounters with said guild, however, were all bad 3rd time was not the charm

The best Ragnarok experience. The huge amount of work put in over almost 2 decades, by the many wonderful and talented people who still call it home, insure it will always remain so. Can't imagine playing RO without all of the sick gameplay perks hero has, not to mention all the great friends I made along the way. While there isn't a crowd playing like back in the day, the server discord is full of helpful and eager adventurers, and I highly encourage you to check it out.

Played more than 5 years, no p2w just adventure. Friendly community and GMs. balanced to pre-re standard. Not much change on official stuff but there are lots of new custom instances, gear set, pets, quest, lore for new adventure etc. Donation is pure cosmetics. Player activated events. Lots of mysteries to discover. Good for nostalgia but with lots of new experiences. Server lasted so long. The server that can be your home :)

I think this is best low rate server i ever played. They have tons of costume content (cards, monster, costume, etc) and they are balance. They have nice changes to the game. GM very active in Discord. Players are so friendly.

Stable server without wipes. WoE recently revamped to help with competition. Lots of customs for cuteness and to help balance classes. Veteran and new players alike. Many players take breaks but always comes back because it's a good server!!!

Small but friendly community. Always something to do or look forward to for every type of player. Feels like the original game but massively improved. Issues and conflicts resolved quickly. Players are friendly and very helpful. Personally not a fan of the Hero's Journey Quest which could use a lot of big fixing so it's not a reskinned Eden Quest.

Good pvm server with content customized for pre-re mechanics, with custom gears and class customization to buff weaker skills so that there's new builds or formerly weaker builds (like bird sniper) to explore and try, which is great for casual play. Server is stable and readily available. Market is lopsided to mvp items though such that mvp items may be available, but items from regular mob is hard to find.

Returned to the server after a multi-year absence, was quite surprised at how much has changed, many of which was for the better. Most conversation is done at the server Discord channel, which was quite friendly for the most part. It was easy enough to pick back up, and the two big customized areas are fun to explore, with areas ment for all levels. PvP ratings require a bit of conjecture, as I don't really take part, and server is currently testing out WoE 2.0 as well.
