Want to give my two cents about the current state of the server:

When it comes to stability, working features, additional features etc. this is the ONLY viable NosTale server to play atm. It is amazing how many custom features were added since the server first went live!

And at the same time, playing it feels REALLY bad.
Since most of the players who are still playing are maxed out, trying to find any raid is difficult and feels unrewarding. It isn't helping matters that to progress quests and gear, you will have to do raids which you can't solo and basically have to e-beg people to join your raid to progress your main quest. This feels TERRIBLE. I get that at some point progressing through this must have been a breeze since people were doing these raids anyhow. But nowadays it's e-torture.
If I want to make the BiS PvE trophy, I have to do raids that nobody runs and the boxes are too expensive for beginners and even if you do the raid everything but the trophy is pretty much worthless nowadays. Which begs the question why this process is still required. You could just make the older trophys available through different means...
It seems there was no thought put into how newer players experience this server and it was only designed for the "progress group" nowadays which makes sense when looking at who is responsible for GD.

It seems to me that the "correct way" to progress nowadays is to just run lesser and elementals etc until you have enough gold to buy lvling to c60 and c60 eq and then grind a7 raids /a7 maps for everything you need. Which to me is very boring.

tldr: Great server with awesome features and great stability but hollowed out progression and a boring endgame.

Hello and thanks for the feedback!
We know finding raids after questing is a pain point for a lot of newer players, so we have removed the necessity to do a Fafnir at the end of the Valhalla quest as well as the Belial raid at the end of act 7.1 quest. With the release of act 7.2, Belial basically became worthless so it was pretty hard to find a raid indeed.

Regarding the grind, killing monsters and doing raids is basically the essence of NosTale's PVE.

That's a nice change; especially Belial was difficult to find. I'd think the more ideal change would be to make Belial somewhat desirable, but I guess the playerbase isn't big enough atm to support this.

What about trophies though?
Lesser are fine since a lot of people do those, but A5 & Erenia/Zenas seem to pretty much have no value aside from the trophy.

Also, I get that endgame GRIND comes down to either killing mobs or doing raids, but I feel like there is a lack of diversity when it comes to the endgame activities. Which is sad because you guys have a lot of potential. Even if it failed in the end, I did like a lot of the aspects of Noswings to just come up with new ways to play the game. Those did hit the note of being excited for the game again, at least for me. I wish you wouldn't just follow the official progression and sprinkle in some QoL here and some custom skins there.

Since the items you can obtain in Belial can be obtained in Paimon as well, the raid lost its relevance and that's the reason we have removed it from the questline, as we have done for Kertos, Valakus, Grenigas, Zenas & Erenia.

Sadly, I don't think there is a mean to make Belial relevant right now, although we have some ideas for raids we are currently working on that we hope will make raids more attractive.

I can understand it's a bit hard to find act 5 raids, especially Desert Robber Band, but Erenia & Zenas are done on a daily basis. I often see marathons for these 2 raids, either for trophy or eggs (rare fairy crafting material worth ~1B currently).

Well, following official progression and add some QoL was (and still is) the vision we have for Olympus. Of course we know it cannot please everyone, but it still pleases much more people than what the team did on NosWings.

I think part of the "boringness" some players feel is also related to the fact that private servers have been stuck on act 7 for years as well so they've been doing the same content over and over for a long time. We hope that the release of act 8 will change that, since it brings new content that has not been seen on any server other than official at the moment. (Or at least, not fully functional)
