I always loved doing this. When I tried private servers I liked using @warp to go to all the maps and find stuff that wasn't properly added in the game yet (like Juperos dungeon, Geffenia, Thanatos' tower). Exploring the world of RO on foot was easily the greatest sense of exploration I've ever had in any game.

I mean, it wasn't an aggressive mob, plus it was really fucking neat to see the whole Fabre-Pupa-Cream evolution. I wish the whole evolution gimmick was more utilized, only this guy, the thief bugs and the ants had it going, and the few egg mobs, like Peco-Pecos
>>378213895
These niggas were the cutest shit ever, and the best pets too. Also great for low level mage/archer farming, just drop some junk and collect a massive horde, great early game xp.

Similiar thing, small private server, maybe ~ active population, only 40-50 playing WoE. One guild actually managed to get a GTB card That card makes you immune to all spells/kills, basically you can only be rightclicked and they completly dominated every fight they were in. I think eventualyl the GM's intervened or something

>>378216745

I miss when being unkillable was possible just through the right job/build and halfway decent gear outside of MVPs. Now it feels like all the new mobs that get added are intended for parties to take on.

>>378216221

Hey me too. I loved killing mobs in those areas and seeing how some gear had the wrong sprites. GMs would ask me what the hell I was wearing so they could fix it.

Also, as a stalker I ended up copying lvl 10 Gloria Domini from those doppelgänger mobs. I loved the wonky shit on private servers

>tfw you relize that combo monks are outclassed in every way by dedicated spirit/asura builds

Such a fucking shame, was this fixed in 3rd classes? I don't think I've ever seen a combo build in any PVP or WoE. I think I saw one gimmick build that relied on doing the full combo to end in an asura strike ,but that only worked because the guy had gear that gave him 192 attack speed.

Now if you wanted a proper ATATATATATATATA class, you always had Taekwon ranker

>>378217486
Stalker was best class, I remember when you could copy level 10 Waterball from Drake. You team up with a Sage/Prof to give you the water tiles needed and you could kill anyone in PVP in one cast, or really fuck up even MVPs that weren't strongly resistant to water.

Why is RO the only fucking game to balance skills differently for PvE and PvP? Gravity were somehow the only devs to figure out how to make both game modes enjoyable.

What weird server was this on?

>>378217875
What? I just said that it was either Spirit or Asura build, Combos were only viable for PvE.

That said, I prefered spirit builds, so fucking amazing on Champions, you're like a fucking artillery, just cast pneuma on yourself and throw shit at people

In my server there was this one stalker who copied triple attack for his bow build. Was actually pretty smart, now that i think about it.

>>378218519
That's like one of the most basic shit to steal doe. Especially great if you have a 4 slotted weapon and you could apply gorillion effects on hit.
I remember, once the guy was friends with a GM and asked for a falcon, just for fun, since he can't use it. He then stole the Falcon's attack skills (Blitz Beat?), that was pretty funny

>>378218839
Something about awaking crystals?

>>378218913
RO's grinding was actually fun due to all of the game's elements working together to support it, something that most MMORPGs completely fail to grasp.

>>378218751
Oh, never thought of it in that case. Was always weirded out by the fact that falcons were elemental based on your arrow but the wargs weren't.

You can't deny Prontera had a huge amount of merchants compared to the other cities. Still, it was nice to see occasional merchants here or there, or ones set up outside a dungeon selling overpriced pots

>>378219589
Fucking Merchant economies, if you had actual autism, you could buy store items with the discount skill, and sell them for a profit right outside the store, or outside of a dungeon like >>378219702 says.

Then everyone realized that they could just make their own Merchant for Buying/Selling to NPCs

I could never get into any of the Merchant jobs, too much grinding, and Mammonite was a shit skill, leveling one alone was such a fucking drag. I actually really liked the idea of secondary jobs in RO2, where you could have a second class that could focus on crafting potions/weapons/armor etc. Shame the entire game is shit

>>378220010
You gotta get in leech parties with your guild to level a pure merchant though.

>>378220131
Or you could bot with a priest bot to heal you like everyone did.

sometimes they want low rates so we can party level, sometimes they want high rates to skip the grind and do boss hunts instead
but it never happens because they never get priests
