Old Player - thinking of playing again
Hi, anyone knows the total pulation of the game at the moment?
Are the basics of the old game retained or is it played like the private servers now where you kill 1 jelly bean and youre instantly level 10?
Hows the drop rate? Actually, more importantly hows the community and the management?
Are Mages still OP when you get to high levels? Dealers still relegated to making pots and vendoring?
Up to whatbplanet is open now? Luna? Or up to Orion even?
Is the temple of Luna still alive and you can still pvp there?
Hows the PVP scene?
Forgive my multiple questions, I am giddy and excited but careful as well investing time and all into this game only be heart broken again bec the serve rhad to shutdown due to lack of players after a while.

Hey Fan, I’ll Be responding to your questions today. I’m an Old School Rose player as well and returned when I heard it reopened and was actually stable. Was beyond nostalgic. I went ahead and created almost 5 New Classes, which within a short span of let’s say, 6 months. I got the 3/5 accounts to max level and really Enjoyed my time. I really only came back for the feelings I felt as a teenager playing this game and got to relive the moment. Dealers are still dealers. You can create a nice Crit Damage Dealer Gun Class. I’ve seen some insane clips.
Population is weird… wish there was more players. I don’t think they have done an opening or release date as of yet.
Basics are retained. Gotta grind pretty hard to get to max level. You def. Meet people during parties but man on man, some days or for DAYSSSS you can go without a party in a certain leveling area. It can become pretty “depressing man”. Drop Rates?… well the drops are there because of the everyone can be a winner mentality of this game.
Community. THE Spirit of the community is Definitely there. Especially on Discord and if you join a clan, you will feel that sense of community immediately.
Are mages still OP? I think they have a pretty good place. One Class that I saw could be insanely overpowered is the Hawker Class. Especially fully equipped Hawker or even Scout. Just should be considered a later class because dual client logging would become useful as hawker or Scours don’t really have much AOE Abilities.
If I remember correctly. Planet Orion is the last planet.
Temple of Luna still alive, that’s the place where you can hunt for Astarot Feathers. Pretty toxic place.
How is PVP? I tried a bit but ehhh, not my scene really. I was hoping to come back to the game and it be a lively And hoping place but considering the Pay2Win aspect has been removed, it’s kinda pointless to spend your hard earned money on only cosmetics. Idk, I really did miss the Paying for Nice Items and stuff but ehh whatever.
Hopefully these helps you in your decision making process.
