Edda stays as close to vanilla as possible despite the rates--no tacky custom items with effects that cover half the screen lol! I'll admit I was a little nervous to try a server this small but I have yet to be disappointed. Their donation is cheap w/f2p means to acquire things. It's also easy to join in on things as the playerbase is small. I haven't experienced any lag or desync either. If there was one thing to improve on it would be some translation errors here and there on items/dialogue.
