What this server adds

Druid

A new expanded class from kRO, reworked for pre-renewal. Take wolf form to fight up close, raptor form to strike from range, or hold a Truth of ice, wind or earth to cast, and switch between them as the fight needs. Every skill has been retuned so each role sits just below the class that specialises in it. Prestige unlocks the Karnos and Alitea forms.

Game modes

Three modes to play beside the main game, each started from an NPC in Prontera.

Midgard Survivors

Hold out alone against ever bigger waves of monsters while your skills fire by themselves. Every level up offers a new skill, a card or a level of one you hold.

How Midgard Survivors works
Midgard Tactics

An auto battler on a giant chessboard. Buy adventurers from a shop, combine copies into stronger units and build traits through seven stages, ending with Valkyrie Randgris. Your first win each week earns a trip to the Champion's Vault.

How Midgard Tactics works
ARAM

One lane over the abyss, 1v1 up to 5v5 or practice against bots. Every class has a kit built from its own skills, and you buy items and pick card augments as the match goes on.

How ARAM works

Hardcore

Make a character with one life. If it dies, it is gone for good and joins your Fallen list. Your hardcore characters share one zeny balance and one storage, apart from your standard characters, trade only with each other and have their own side of the Auction House, but they can still party with anyone. A faint red aura marks them in the world, and the Ledger ranks the highest still alive.

Party frames

Every party member gets a pop-out frame showing their HP, SP and buffs. Size, colours, outlines and which details show are all yours to set.

Stylist

One window for hair style, hair colour, cloth colour, costume dye, your nameplate and your chat bubble. Every option shows on your character in-game before anything is applied.

Death Recap

Every death opens a Death Recap beside the respawn menu: the killing blow, every hit from the last half minute grouped by monster and skill, and how much each source dealt. Hover a skill to see what it does.

Prestige

Transcendent and expanded classes at Base 99 / Job 50 can be reborn up to three more times. Each Prestige raises your EXP rates and unlocks a form drawn from your class's future.

Client settings

The client is yours to tune: a dark or classic preset, every surface and accent colour, and a layout panel for the HUD. Smart Cast fires a skill on whatever your cursor is over, party frames included, and every hotkey rebinds with a click.

Settings: theme presets and colours Settings: Smart Cast and hotkeys

Bounty Register

Standing contracts at the Prontera Hunters' Lodge. Pick a monster near your level, choose a 50, 100 or 150 kill contract, and see the base and job EXP it pays before you accept. Contracts never expire and can be taken again once claimed.

Bounty Register

Artisans' Registry

The Artisans' Registry lists every headgear and weapon design. Each shows its materials against what you already carry, Kafra storage included, and accepting one adds a quest that tracks your progress.

Traveller Passport

An account-wide travel document. Stamp a town once and every character on your account can travel there from any Kafra branch. Exploring the world earns achievements along the way.

Auction House

List items for sale and buy from anyone, from anywhere. No vending required and no shop to sit at: your listings stay up for days while you keep playing.

The Auction House browse tab

The Ledger

Twelve server standings, from wealth to monster kills to deaths, read straight from the record book. See exactly where you land.

The Ledger

Card Compendium and Pet Album

Two albums that fill in as you play. Every card you hold is recorded in the Compendium with its effect, and every pet you tame goes into the Album with its taming item, food and loyalty bonus. Both count towards the Ledger and achievements.
