So it’s hard to start now for newbies. Less mobs less value of loots, And we’re having slow progress.

@jam2946 Not as bad as you make it… at least if we’re talking new players. This server offers so much for new players that it is insane…Muh Coins especially, all day everyday via Auto Events just to name one thing and now Happy Hour. RO life is excellent here for a new player and remember, ignorance is a prison cell lol…it also depends on what information a new player has that will make their RO lives either that much more difficult or easy.

@jam2946 I’m wondering what you are referring to with “less mobs” as this was the case for just very few areas while many other areas got much more mobs

@Muh oh sorry, :smiley: was refering to th12 because to me as a newbie that;s the only place i know to farm raw zenny. i understand nerfing or reducing the mobs, but reducing the value of loots maybe thats what i dont understand.

@R_Zoro yeah I agree with the “RO life is excellent here for a new player” very true compared to others, but why reducing the value of loots?
