This a wonderful server, one of the best I have ever played in terms of content and entertainment. The instant lvling and free gear set and free lapis make this a server where even the newest to the server can pvp instantly, but the various things u have to work for ( the accessories, the best gear sets, the accessory lapis, and the Ele 3's ) make it a server that can keep u interested for a very long time. Also the fact that you get Donation Points for each rank, makes everyone WANT to pvp, and the frequency of pvp events and MM's is also another good point.
But, there has been a lot of server downtime recently ( not the Admins fault, just a DDOSer who has life issues ) and this has badly affected the server population, as it was expected to. Even now with the server back, there is a lot of lag spikes, and a lot of mass DC's.
The new updates are a mixed bag, the new gear ( and bosses which drop the gear ) are a very nice addition, as is the class change, new enchant and reroll system. But the fact that since the updates, the kills needed for rank have been modified, and everyones kills have been /20, this has made ppl lose ranks ( and stat points ) and lose a lot of hard work, this is not good, and the explanation from the ADM ( I wont reveal exactly what he said, was a private conversation ) was, tbh, disgraceful.
And the worst point, NONE of these changes have been listed anywhere on the website, so no one in game knows what these updates are, or even that there have been any updates, and from what the ADM said, ( again, I wont say ) it does not look like they ever will be informed, its a case of figure it out for yourself.
Overall, its a wonderful server, with massive potential, but with a few downsides ;
1. The DDOS attacks
2. The lag / DC issues
3. Lack of communication from ADM to the general server population
4. Underuse of website
With these issues fixed / improved, this wud easily be the best PVP server in existence.
If I was just rating it on Content, Gameplay, New things, it would be a 10/10
However, because of the issues I said above, it has to be a 6.5/10
this is just my opinion though, feel free to flame / troll me if u disagree lol
See You All On AoL
