Anybody has/working on Classic 99 server?

Anybody trying to bring back 99 classic? Pre-giant or Giant version. Something Similar to Xor Rohan back in the day?

We were "working" on a server before but me and some friends lack the knowledge and the skills let alone the time. What we have was a Hero 5 (afaik) server and we were converting it into a classic.

Our "plan" for our server were the following :

1. No crafting/enhancing. Boss drops/accessories were customized like R4 ring gave 25/25/25 instead of 20/20/20 SVD. We also added "adorned" option stones to its loot table. HP and Damage increased for a challenging raid.

2. Hunter kits were sold for at least 1$ for 24 hours.

3. Gladiator Scrolls etc goes for a maximum of 20%

4. Crone Sink.

Those are some of the features we were trying to implement. And yes no "buff with staff whack with hammer" for the templars. PVP and GVG events as well for the players.

I've been checking, and I found a lot of files. Including very old versions, with old hitlists. However, HK will not work. It has several bugs, and honestly I find the old mapID very unstable. I will upload soon and share all the files I have.

-Infinity Rohan clientfull+Server Files
-XorRohan clientfull
-vmware L99 with old system bounty, hitlist all working, TSB 9 tower
-soriens versions
-many datafiles old server.
-rohanclient unlocked
-Structures
-change portal location etc...

Haha, It's never goodbye, I'm active:D. Just waiting for some good server, preferably customized. I took some time to try to do something with rohan. But who knows, oldschool Lv99 server looks interesting.

I'm with you Oziel. I remember when Xor went down in October of 2014... or 2015? it suuuuucked... but TBH the server had plateaued a bit before that.

99 Classic servers have been done several times and what happened the first few times was that people simply 100%ed everything very quickly. The endgame grind quickly became about +ing Artisan accessories, weapons, and armor as much as possible, and getting max dual-stat weaponry. This isn't a bad thing it just isn't enough. The "grind" should never end in an MMORPG like ROHAN, but it should never be boring. You and others have probably heard these points before but I've suggested some additions that could keep the game fresh and improve flaws.

1. Remove + Attack Force as a stat, and Melee/Magic/Ranged Attack % from weapons. it imbalances the game. It makes classes like Agi Dhans, Dex Guards, and Psy Wizards less viable as Defense matters less and less. Hit and run classes like Str Dhans, Rangers, and Int Dekans dominate as being slow and tanky means nothing... because being tanky is not possible. If you've looked at Early Jin PvP before it had epics, and everybody was flooded with +Attack, along with Heroic Power... Rangers were asswiping Vit Defenders and Dekans with ease, Str Avengers could pop two scrolls and 1-DPP almost anything that wasn't full Vit. [([Only registered and activated users can see links.

2. Variable Boss Drop Accessories. It's simple, Each Boss drop has 4 variants in stat distribution. Ex: Wings of Solemn Death would have:
WoSD-15 Str, 15 Dex, 15 Vit
WoSD [White]- 33 Vit, 6 Str, 6 Dex
WoSD [Red]- 33 Str, 6 Dex, 6 Vit
WoSD [Orange]- 33 Dex, 6 Str, 6 Vit

This would keep boss hunting fresh. If you get a low key-stat for your build from a boss that is your level, you could get a high key-stat from a lower level boss. This makes players have to kill bosses more often at the endgame to get exactly what they want... this is the point- to have something worth fighting over repeatedly! If we allow these boss drops to be reinforced it adds even more depth. You will have players used to 1-shotting everybody like in other servers- these boss drops give them that option. You can be a Str Dhan with 4 RED Wings of Solemn Death and be a 1-shotta at the expense of your defense. Trading would be encouraged.

3: Armor Option Stone variants. This would be similar to boss drop accesories. Each armor option stone would have a color. Protection of Marea could have White for Vit, Red for Str, Orange for Dex, Green for Agi, Blue for Int. Your armor would have a roll for the option stone effect, but the stats for Vit, Str, etc. would be guaranteed by tier. Ex.

Protection of Marea [White] would give +8 Vit to Froianne, 12 to Pluion, 20 to Edwin, etc... and each Ancient Armor part would be like a reinforceable armor piece where the stat could increase for each +.

Those are just a few ideas I have.

Well i am interested about files you found.

Not gonna lie on that, I am sometimes doing Rohan stuff for funs but never really plan to make a public server. What sort of bugs does it has and how big is the files size to upload?

I know HuninHune was or still is trying get towards Rohan but looking on a other forum but that rohan section is dead as it can be. Here sometimes people post something even when it's being awhile so didn't expect see old people still looking at this place.

People always want a 99 Server and after 1-2 Months everyone just keeps login for Bosses or TSB and thats it.
Also soon or later People will get too Money hungry and selling Gear/Items for some $$.

Somewhat wrong statement, the majority of rohan populous thats left is always playing a server to rmt, the rest look to rmt when they are "quiting". Lets be frank here there's not that much to do in rohan 99 server.
On top of all that rohan populous has grown way lazier mostly because majority are outside the original gen that played rohan,and would refuse to play "slow exp/harder pve/punishing gameplay" because its pserver
and they don't want to have to spend that much time on pve because they have RL and they would fall behind, can u blame them though when they are used to 1month cookie cut servers. That look to yoink as much money as they can, rebrand and open new server right after and repeat. Its vicious cycle.
You need active community willing to participate in events made by the server owners and most servers don't do events or don't have ppl to participate in them. Regardless rohan isn't what it used to be pve comes first for rmt, pvp is secondary. For most indogs pvp is go kill few ppl on hk and call it a day.

The majority of the servers go down due to currency inflation and players quit playing coz it's either boring or they cannot profit from it anymore. The server we were working on could've been something but we ain't dev's. We just edited bin files.

If ever you'd be working on a 99 classic server, we could help out with the testing phase. A Rohan server wouldn't be as bad if the owners focused on PVP events where players could profit. Donation items should focus on guild stones/scrolls and some buff scrolls should be reduced/removed.

anyone said xor rohan? ... hi xd
