No, there isn't and there will never be one as long as there are players like Cain/Avel who spend 1000+ euros on dead 20 y/o game.
World of Chantra had a shitload of free stuff (combi, lens, wings cloak chests etc) until couple of days ago when greedy admins realized that they need more money and moved most of free stuff back to CC shop.
Archonia is free to play but you have to play like 14-18 hours a day if you want to progress without investing money lmaoooo /s
The point is, if you are a "regular" Archlord player who just wants to do some farming or maybe PvP and play 1-2h every other day (and still feel that you are progressing), then you are gonna have a bad time because you can't do that anymore

Either invest money or grind your way up, there is no linear progress in this game for f2p players anymore, that's the reality
