Alright guys, since im not getting fifa this year was looking at this server since i had a very subtle email alerting me to its existence.

Whats the deal? any old P faces still play?
Archer good for solo?

Few old faces ;)

Servers alright, not quite as polished as I'd hoped but its getting there. Main issue is lag spikes. Community is good though, feels nostalgic in someways :distracted:

If your thinking of going wiz, know that TS doesn't stun, mobs have no 'struck' time.

I am currently playing an archer and i find it to be a great solo class and a grouped class they have good single target damage towards players and monsters they have decent AOE spells (some that i haven't unlocked yet but know what they are from past servers playing an archer).
They have a few bugs that need fixing but the main problem is the lag spikes atm. They have been getting better the more the gms work on it and should be a new dedi to host the server of tonight to help towards the situation hopefully.
Definitely a server worth putting time into playing because i think it will be up and running for a long period of time with a high usercount.

I played this server with no intention of re-rolling if hunters were "meh".

I don't play the server anymore.

It is a good server, but I was expecting it to be much more finished considering the time they said they have worked on it; like Chriz has said, the lag is the main issue at present.

I would recommend the server as I did have fun playing it, just Hunters were boring to play, and I refused to re-roll.

Server is decent bar lag spikes reminds me of a faster euro Phoenix server.

Finding the journey to 32 so wars are actually decent a pure slog tho.

Started as a hunter and started again after 20

It's alright if you need a time sink, however it feels like there isn't actually that much more than the basic crystal files in the server.

It's not bad, just isn't as advanced as I expecting from something announced many years ago.

This is the one thing I always thought, I mean they do have a few different areas, but it didn't seem fresh.
I am sure a lot of the quests are just the base quests, npcs seem pretty standard to.

It basically seems like its c# files with a socketing system.

From what I've played it seems pretty good so far, nothing new but probably the best Mir 2 thats going at the moment. Lacks a little bit of polish and for something thats been in the works since 2015 its taking a lot of flack for that.

However redeeming quality is that the team behind it are very active and holding regular actual live dev chats on Discord. This for me is the one thing thats going to really help keep the hype going knowing that yeah some things need attention but that they are happy to work on it.

the thread echos my sentiments, got just two socketed items early on, I think a dagger and some piece of jewelry from oma cave, both totally useless since they were worse than what I got at the time or other class in the latter case, also had no use for the sockets, might be my fault for not exploring how you use those on this server, likely you need some other items to combine them but all I've seen are the most basic euro items, not even the more 'exotic' among them, I'd call it lackluster and it is hard to see the reason why make us start at level 1 and not 30+ or whatever

as had been said elsewhere, at low levels you can ease spigot on drops since no matter how you dress up your martial sword or power axe etc, you chuck it before long anyway but I don't see any sign of that here

Chronicles was good 5 years ago when they was newish files, tbh them files are not great vs Crystal, they feel very laggy compared to smooth #C movement, i'm sure Chronicles V2 will be on a newer client though

It’s bang average , for how much “ work “ went into it , the launch was a shambles. Balancing level 7 spells on day one didn’t exactly scream ” we are ready” , not to mention the fact that skills get changed every single reboot. Never known a server to have so many spell adjustments in a short space
of time.

The content is virtually bog standard crystal files , with a couple of new additions which are barely worth talking about , the fact that 3 people made this is worrying.

People were smashing bosses and levels 24/7 because of how easy it was to kill certain things ( almost like it wasn’t tested ) and taking advantage of some spells being OP as hell. Before the GM then decided to nerf said bosses and skills ( a long time after the damage had been done ) , thus screwing the smaller players in the ass.

It is beyond believe how this got 400 users when it’s basically untested raw c files with a couple of renamed items/mobs and a socket feature ( which isn’t even the first of its kind.

If you are bored then it’s a great time sink. But if your looking for the longevity and consistent high user count that chronicles has/had, I would look
elsewhere. They barely made the first 40 levels playable here, and that’s meant to be the easy bit to manage ! Good luck with any new caves spells items.

You're moaning about a good thing...

My thoughts are try it for yourself and If you don't like the server don't play it.

Chrons was smoother and no lag but so many thing were so wrong. Start with Luck then monks. That's the start.
This is awful.
user count high because there isn't anything else.
Yes same old people saying they like pvp that's lies. play 24/7 to get levels then jump and 2 hit ppl making out it's skill(its level n kit)
Already been exploits. No wrist slapping. PK (not fights) is the must do.
It's really old fashioned(nostalgic) none of the modern quality of life for players like chrons or even better marble or zircon.
