Hello! Recently joined this server and so far I’m really enjoying it, especially how easy it is to try out different classes at adequate levels. I’m currently leveling Creator, and going in I knew it was an expensive class. Zenny is perfectly fine to use as a resource for power balance, and it does feel like I’m “investing” in my character. However, one part that kinda shocked me as a new player is the requirement for Seed of Life every 30 minutes to summon my homonculi. It’s not a cheap material, especially when I am unable to efficiently farm and need to spend zenny on other things for my class. Normally I’d pass over this as a minor inconvenience, but after researching if there was a cheaper way I noticed some posts on Reddit that the Seed of Life as a summon item was implemented to combat botting (https://www.reddit.com/r/RagnarokOnline/comments/10e2r7b/comment/j4p9ibf/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3).
With that in mind, is it reasonable to reduce the price for the seed of life? It creates a hurdle to trying out a class that already has a high enough barrier of entry, and I know I’m not the only one bummed by its pricetag.

i dont know how important homunculus at your stage of the game, but 60k each for 30 minutes is cheap enough for how much zeny one can gain in that amount of time

@Dreamer_Soteria This class’ theme always was to spend more money in order to benefit. Fortunately, the hurdle becomes obsolete once you enter into geffenia, because two weapons from there is equal to one seed of life, which takes seconds to get. Being new, you always feel held back, which is why most new players make a zenny making class first, which requires zero effort to farm.
I would vouche that we eliminate the 30 minute timer before a homun evolves. This would make the 60k not so much of a burden until you get your S class evolution. Would definitely help newbies before they can thrive and afford these things that seem like luxuries when you’re new.

A bit mixed on this one.
Multiple Seeds can add up pretty quickly and become a bit too much of an investment for a new player.
But at the same time, 60k is really not that hard to get.
You can easily make 4-5 times that just by doing an Illusion Dungeon’s boardquest.
Not to mention actual zeny farming in Geffenia or old Thana.

Moving it to rejected
Other classes need to invest alot of zeny’s aswell for their buffs and its part of the design of the class.
