He's had well over 90 requests, It's not easy to do it on your own you know maybe he should hire someone else to help him?

[megastarking]

Chosen Files: Vsro 1.188
Cap: 100 Chinese and European ( I tihnk this is most balanced)
Exp/SP Rate: 30x (so that players aren't lvl 100 in 1 day)
Drop rate: 10x
Gold rate: 20x
Sox rate: 2x and NO SUN DROP
Botting allowed
IP limit: 2 accounts
Map: Jangan, Donwhang, Hotan, Samarkand, Canstantinople, Donwhang Cave, Jangan Cave, Alexandria (adjusted so that mobs are all lvl 100 ad drop 10d). This is to allow more space for lvling to 100 instead of focusing only on jangan cave.
Suggestions:
1. Start level is 1: people start with 10x reverse scroll, 10x instant return scroll, 7 day grab pet, 1000 XL hp and mp potions, wolf attack pet, 1m gold. NPC shops will have SOS items for degree 1-8 so that players can get up to level 72 without much problem.
2. Silk items are ALL found at a npc silk shop that requires ingame silk
3. No silk/hour instead silk currency is earned from unique kills, events, and job trading (only those uniques around your level drop silks)
4. Donations can be rewarded with silk which is no problem as long as there are ways to earn it ingame (of course its harder and more time consuming to earn it rather than donate). Items at silk shop will be difficult to get and will be adjusted accordingly so that donators aren't paying too much for silk and players don't feel like its impossible to earn silk ingame.
5. No Honor Rank/Academy this is just stupid and people make multiple accounts
6. IP limit 2 characters (I hate seeing a gold farming pt with bard/cleric etc)
7. to explain job trading: instead of getting gold as a reward people will get silk. SO a trade from jangan to donwhang 10 x (value of trade items). So one star maxed out would be 10 silk, 2 star = 20 silk, 5 star = 50 silk. For example, for items that value less than 1 star, the trader gets 7 or 8 silk. From jangan to hotan would be 20 x (valueof trade) and so on depending on city distance. Max will be jangan to constant which is 50 x (value of trade) max being 250 silk (50 x 5). This will encourage players to do jobbing more as its integral to part of game. Hunters will be rewarded (1/5) x (trader's total silk) and thief steals will be rewarded with value of trade the trader is carrying. For example, if a thief took a trader's goods that has 3 stars maxed out then he gets 30 silk. So as you can see trader is always rewarded the most, hunter second, and thief least because they dont have to invest as much time and money as traders and hunters.
8. No such things as SUN weapons for degree 1-10. At level 100 there is a special Seal of Weapon that is similar to SUN stats and it can only be given to players by taking a original quest that involves killing medusa (adjust health of medusa so it doesnt take forever). Quest can only be acquired at level 100. Those that have this quest at lvl 100 will need to work together in a party and the reward will be distributed to one player in the party randomly. They take that item and finish quest and choose their special Seal weapon/shield/armor/acc. This will again encourage players to do Medusa and the 5 uniques that go with it. Spawn Medusa every 3h (it will probably take 2h to kill it since health of uniques will be adjusted) and open that gate of sarim tribe door every 3 hr. If players don't kill medusa in 3h then they are teleported out of room and it restarts. Therefore in 1 day there can only be maximum of 8 SUN items in server. Also, players that have finished quest and got a SUN item can only do the quest again in 24 hrs. This limits a few players from getting items in 1 day. However, playesr that don't have quest can still participate in medusa event so those that have special seal items can help others in their party get them by killing the unique. (Remember only 2 character ip limit so this cannot be abused)
9. You might be thinking what do we do with gold that we get form farming on mobs. The gold will be used for small purposes like alchemy (trading between players for elixirs, elements, stones) and at npc shops. Most importantly the gold will be used for traders who want to buy items for trading between cities. You buy items and transports with gold but get rewarded with silk. The goods that traders will need to transport will be quite expensive for 3-5 stars but they get the most silk from jobbing.
10. Arena/CTF will exist also every 2 hours where winning those events gives silk also but lower amounts compared to jobbing. For example winning team in arena and CTF get 5 silk (no reward for killing players in CTF like they do now). Both events gives same reward but they are different and will add more fun for people.

SO looking at this there is CTF and arena happening every 2 hours, medusa happening every 3 hours for Special seal, unique hunting for silk drops and job trading being central for silk gain. This should make server fun and should take away from nonstop botting because gold can only get you so far. Each player can choose how they want to get silk. It can be jobbing, killing uniques, doing events, or CTF and arena.

Ya i know this is quite long but this is how I pictured a perfect SRO private server that is fair to those that pay and those that play for free. If people like it then press "thanks" and if you have suggestions post them and I'll change this post. Maybe I should post it elsewhere also??

I want to ask if is it hard to make server witch start with 80 lvl and finish on 110. Every week new update. No hight rates. Updates look like 80 (classic) ->week later (jangan fort) -> RM (90)-> JC(100)-> etc like on isro. Could you tell me something about that ? is it hard to do that ?

[LukeXV]

Chosen files :>> Doesn't matter rly .this is up to if you can handle my suggestions with the version
Level Cap :>> i prefer 100 with balanced damage
Exp Rate :>>40~60x "up to you"
Suggestions :>>
1-Highly ranked quests to make it more fun,with auto-route mode
2-Tab to select nearby monsters or enemies(even chars)
3-Removing Berserker rage mode >and replace it with something like ,umm adding soul points to weapon by creating stone of bla bla to enable it,i've seen this before in many MMO games
4-Deleting all Avatars/Mounts/even pets ,and create yours,cuz the ones which SRO created are really FAIL! That's my opinion
5-make some changes in keys like we can move by (W,S,D,A) and replace S,A by Z,X or smth like that
6-can you make Force(Chinese) use new weapon and shield with balanced skills like Cleric (FAIR) not sro-r skills
7-Global exchange,like writing this in chat window //LukeXV Exchange,whenever he is the request will be sent ^^
8-other flashy games inside the game gives the player points to get rare stuff or smth like that which is good for you admin to gain money from owners of these flashy games (Estimation,farm,cards,etc) as an advertisement
9-and finally my last suggestion,Capturing pets/mounts for example,to get pet (you gotta make a quest for it,or attack these kinds of monsters you wish to use as a fellow pet,till you get it
and about mount we should have immortal one can be bought from item mail or a free one by quest
maybe some of my suggestions kinda hard or stupid ,but im just looking for a cool gameplay nothing else
Thanks in advance ^_^

[befree3]

Chosen files: I've only played on vsro/black rogue files based sro, so dunno... smth that suits it best, u chose

1.*
Level cap:70
Exp rate:
Lv1~40 1x
Lv40~60 2x
Lv60~70 3x
Suggestions:
Race:Chn only
Skill mastery:280
Skill cap:Skills only till lv 65, but u can still incrs the mastery till lv 70 & remove snow shield series

2.**
Level cap:80
Exp rate:
Lv1~40 1x
Lv40~60 2x
Lv60~70 3x
Lv70~80 4x
Suggestions:
Race:Chn only
Skill mastery:300
Skill cap:Skills only till lv 70, but u can still incrs the mastery till lv 80 & remove snow shield series and lv 70 nukes

*/** ... & so u arrive at having lower lv skills = lower dmg & much more defence/variety of skill cuz of the 4 mastery u can create = a balanced pvp... this is how it was in the old days if any1 still remembers


Common Suggestions:

Alchemy Rate:
Lowest possible... back then if u had a +5 weapon u where good & if u had a +6 or +7 it was a great achievement
NO adv elixirs

Skills edits:
The cc of skills can be adjusted if needed

Glow System:
Old glows ftw

Drop/Gold/Job Rates:
1x/1x/10x & for special trade routes 15x... why 1x drop/gold rates, cuz so, u want gold, make job, that's the "thing" that made this game special, the "thing" that the whole game evolves & the story of your char

Sox drop rate:
Lowest possible

Pvp items:
If possible old job suits and capes (old pvp days outside donwhang)

Item mall items:
-no p+, only normal premium
-no devil/angel spirit
-no stupid avatars/fellow pets/grab pets, the only avatars/grab pets available should be only those that fit the time in which the game takes place
-nobody remembers the old appearance items, from all the sv's i've played/seen till now, only 1 sv had tiger/white tiger/black tiger/chaki & chaki worker hats, how could u ignore those, lol

Map/Party matching:
Every1 ignores this subject, why u're making a d7/8/9 or d10 sv but have the map/party matching till d11~d13, is rly that hard to edit

Vote system/Donations:
Donating will "reward" you with silk... the vote system should reward you with silver silk & with it to be able to buy IM items but at a higher price than normal silk

Events:
Capture the Flag*/Battle Arena**/Fortress War*** should be enabled
Forgotten World disabled

* & ** why enabled, cuz it offers you smth else to do, they are nice events but ppl tend to ignore em...

*possible rewards from CTF: trigger/parry/int/str scrolls, vigors x-large, elixirs
**possible rewards from BA(which u buy em with battle coins): GDF, elixirs, end game tablets/stones/elements
***only Jangan/Bandit & Hotan forts & the taxes should be limited to 10% or max 15% depending on which fort u got

Unions:
They should be limited to 2 or 3 guilds, but i think it's better 2, in this way much more competition at FW & guild wars

Uniq drops:
They should have the % to drop pandora boxes/skill reset scrolls & other scrolls besides their normal drop list

GM*/GA**& forum moderators/support tickets***:
* & **no ingame GM's, only GA(Game Advisors) which will only answer to your questions but nothing more, no special commands or smth

***there should be a forum moderator for each language section & they should also have the responsibility to answer at the support tickets for the language section they have been asigned
