The name of the server is Existence Ragnarok Online. Keep in mind the game is different style then conquer online such as it does not have jumping although this might save your fingers from having to hold down your control button and also save your control button from brutal abuse. Another thing is their is more classes then what you can find in conquer which means more skills and more ways to play your class. Existence Ragnarok Online is very pvp balanced as well which was not much of a case in Conquer Online. The system of upgrading gear is somewhat different in that your plusing your gear instead of trying to slot it unless your just striving for a more unique style headgear or armor which requires slotting.
Some other things which are different is the style of characters in Existence Ragnarok Online. The characters in Conquer Online are only 2D so you only manage to see one side of the character the world is also 2D. In Existence Ragnarok Online the characters are 2D similar to that of conquer but the world is 3D giving the game a more opened feel. Similar to conquer the game is open world but one of the biggest difference's is the fact that Existence Ragnarok Online has 956 maps and can constantly create new content. Conquer Online is limited to only a small amount of area's which can make it very boring. The amount of quests and things to do is amazing in Existence Ragnarok Online you have many small mini games and quests and dungeons along with more group orientated things to do like Guild vs Guild which happens twice a week. Capture the Flag that can be played at anytime. A Mortal Kombat arena which can be played at anytimes and is also used for events. And the big holiday events which leaves everyone with tons of amazing items and challenging boss fights.
Some things that you will not find in the game are things such as the imbalanced item mall. While there is a donation shop which does contain items that can be purchased all items drop from there respected monster. Items which have made there way into the item shop first get balanced based on pvp some might get nerfed some might not be offered completely all newer expansion cards for armor, weapon, head, garment, and accessories are not donation items. And some of the older cards have either been added to that list or nerfed to support a balance between donators and non donators. Donation credits can come from different events such as holiday events, Russian roulette, and the daily poring invasion event.
The pvp system is pretty close to conquer with only slight changes. Instead of switching from peace mode to PK mode you have commands which can be used:
@pvpkillon - turns pk on, allowing you to attack anybody within the boundaries. this is enabled by default.
@pvpkilloff - turns pk off. With this off, you wont be able to attack anybody, preventing you from accidentally hurting others with your AoE or accidentally clicking them with an attack.
@karma - shows your current amount of PK points.
@showkarma - Displays when you gain and lose PK points. Also shows a total.
@pvpcapture - Allows you to kill anyone with 100+ PK points without risk of gaining PK points so long as your PK points are 30 or below.
@ally - allows you to talk to your guild allies
There also is an exception you cannot kill anyone who is a novice or class under level 65 for the time being because the server is still new and it was done to allow people to level up before worrying about killed. This might be lowered in the future when the server is more full. Killing people can also be done using certain class pets as well as a hired mercenary which can make things even more interesting.
When you kill someone you gain 1% of what ever money they have on their character and 1% of their experience. After you have killed too much you will get a red ring around your character which other players can see warning them that you've been killing. If you are killed with a red aura you will have a small chance to drop one of your items. Beware that you do not go to jail when killed so someone could revive you and kill you again and again if they choose. If you continue to kill more people the red aura will turn blue at this point you will have a chance to drop more then one piece of gear and the chance is increased some but you will be sent to jail right after being killed. If you still continue to kill more with a blue aura it will turn black and this is the highest aura color when killed you can drop 1-3 pieces of gear at the highest chance and get sent to jail directly.
Drop of points takes 2 minutes per PK point and market and paradise island are the safe zones if you walk into a town other then these maps you will be caught by the guards and set to jail. You can either bribe the jailer to get out or wait until your points return to normal to be released. When a Pker is killed they will lose 2% of their money they are carrying and up to 4% of there experience when they have an Aura.
Another part of the system is the bounty system which takes place automatically when someone kills another player 1% of the money that is lost when a PKer kills a player (aside from what he personally gains) gets added to a bounty system against the PKers name the more he kills the more will be gained against him as a bounty. Other players can take a bounty quest to kill that player and when they do they will receive the money as a reward for killing the PKer and collecting the bounty on his head.
