Best advice to a new player of rom would be - drop this game immediately. It's one of the most predatory, p2w unfair games that ever existed. If you think about pvp prepare to spend thousands of dollars.
thanks for this , we need more updated newbie contents...to help new players. I hope you also do some guide on how to get gacha vouchers for F2p and new players to boost their handbook damage% or attack.
Played since day 1. Just enjoy the game. It's basically dead af. Prontera is crowded by dummy accounts. Whales are selling accounts left and right. Reason why server merges are gon be implemented. To make it more lively. The terribly poor algorithm a.k.a. RNG (Jesus Christ! Don't be so stupid to believe this game implements RNG) in both drops, cards, and refining is what killed this game. Atleast give decent rates so free to play- mid gamers can catch up. Or just make use of ad banners in game if it's all money you devs care about. Thanks WW for the enthusiasm of keeping the game alive. Kudos!
I think "RNG" in this game is rigged to the rooftop. We already know how it works based on the recent Maple Story drama. Unfortunately, the player base in Rom is much smaller than in Maple Story, so one really cares to expose similar manipulations.
@NightmareExplorer exactly. See the most recent fallen feather box scheme? They milked any pseudowhales left by making them buy the entire 300 boxes, giving them sht in return, and just made up for it by giving the 200m-zeny-worth card. I say pseudo because the real whales have left already long ago. It was marked by the decrease of channels. It was around then, add or take a year. These legit whales literally "invest" to the game while having the luxury to play it their way. It didn't work well so they had to go. See the 4th enchantment vouchers and 3rd enchantment reset now? You'll be surprised to know they are actually available years prior to the legit whales and just being given away like how they give away gift boxes and codes. You can spend your whole damn fortune for enchants and get gd nothing.
@NightmareExplorer I can say the RNG thing only applies to gachas, at the very least. Events and other things, completely rigged. See the recent fallen feather scheme? They milked the remaining pseudowhales my making them buy the entire 300 boxes for nothing. They just issued an apology because of the "extremely low" chances and gave the 200M zeny card anyway. I say pseudo because the legit whales have left the game long ago. It was around when the channels decreased, give or take a year. These whales were literally invested to the game while having the luxury to play it the way they like. The game earnings didn't go well as expected so they left. You'll be more surprised to know that the +15 refine vouchers, 4th enchant vouchers, and the ability to reset 3rd enchants were already available years prior to these whales. I have known legit whales in game, and believe me, their enchants couldn't be more perfect. The devs handed it the way how they give gift packs and codes. It was that easy for them. Recently they made the whole thing available to the public, with limitations, of course. You can spend your whole gd fortune in refining, and enchanting and get no results.
@@kuramakyuubi2245 I stand by every word you wrote. And thank you for being real. Most of the players are either super naive or coping with criticism with good old "if you don't like it just quit", as we have not invested hundreds of hours, money, and feelings. And we don't have a right to point out things that are practically the last nails in the coffin. Because it's whining or crying. In the last year, I have met quite a few noobs by helping them start, not even one of them is still in a game. They quit after a month or even sooner. Even the fact that super op classes that break pve are not available to them is super off-putting. Catching up is impossible, even with a giant investment with real money. For me, the worst offender is the rune system. Devs make new hero classes only to sell rune boxes. This system is impossible. They say to play many classes, but with this system? And ever-growing pool of classes we draw from? Getting runes for Saitama is for new player like a slap in the face.
Personally I prefer cards. At least on our server, snapping a +15 weapon is hard and self refining to 15 is all RNG. I have lost hundreds of millions refining with no results, whereas cards are more guaranteed in value.
Hi WWG, I was a DA for the longest time and just recently changed to Khalitzburg. My character right now only have 20k+ raw Att. Do you have tips for increase Att. I'm not a heavy spender though.
Honestly zero chance you will play to star no guilde donations no 1percent got cha no deposit attack magic attack becomes super weak promise very desaponment
@@louiegreggmartin3477I'm returnee player last time I played was way back 2020 yet with low depo can do solo lost isle brave run 1-2 those whale player I see them as my servant if said I need run they will help me it's all about mind set.
@@louiegreggmartin3477it's always how you view things. A lot players will help you nowadays it's easier to get stronger compare before. Set your expectations real and never compare your progress to veteran acct that spend literally years to achieve it. When it comes to to PvP content use a utility build/job.
@@marksoriano375 I agree with this. At the end of the day, its how you view things that matters. I for one will play a new account if I get to play with friends or a very accommodating guild.
What the definition of new bie zero chance what so over may be after playing 2year and top a tons of bcc may alt 50percent depo its so weak no strength what so ever even got 15+ set its its paper thins..
Yeah, great, and then comes whale with full set of p2w cards, and you can't do a crap anyway. I absolutely adore your positivity Wobbly, but seriously, you seem more and more out of touch with the reality of this game.
Hi Wobbly, I really liked your videos, as I still learn a lot from it inspite of not playing the game for some time now. I would like to return to the game, can you do a video of an updated class for returning/new players for this year? or would you still recommend the one you made last year? Thanks a lot!
Thank you for this! Even as a old player, back to basics is always important in this game.
much needed contents for new players.. thanks so so much
Best guide for me as new player

@@NightmareExplorerthey can play whatever they want stop crying. 😂
@@NightmareExplorer i playing just for fun, not for waste time, I've been busy with my aircraft 😁
@@rovaus6537 don't listen to resentful players, welcome! :)

Thanks for helping newcomers and returnees!! It's very important to keep game alive :)

Nice guide bro! I think this is really needed for Newbies 😁👌
Yeah there's absolutely no way I'm able to farm 227 million zeny in less than 1 year to afford that minorous star card 😂
Minorous star card is a nice to have, not mandatory
Can you make a video for Support Classes
which better to boost attack number? gear +15 or invest in card?
Personally I prefer cards. At least on our server, snapping a +15 weapon is hard and self refining to 15 is all RNG. I have lost hundreds of millions refining with no results, whereas cards are more guaranteed in value.

Do you have any comparison for andre* card vs Norman Card (5% damage to boss) for headwear?
Can we get a spreadsheet of handbook deposit and unlock for f2p and small spenders?
@@miggymigomigs what I can advise is the filter option in the handbook also crafting furniture is much cheaper i hope this help u.
WobblyWallaby do u think it is still worth it to play the game at this stage? I mean for new players like me?

@@dicEdraab Yeah thats what I thought. This game was already established for years. I wonder how a new fresh account would be able to cope up.

Hihi
It's like complaining why other has better life. Lol
Just quit stop crying.
@@marksoriano375 Lol, another brain-dead "if you don't like it than quit" fool. Speaking the truth is not crying. Go bother someone who cares.
@@marksoriano375 No one is crying beside your mother. And those are not happy tears.

I will probably do another recommendation video. For PvE Khalitzburg is the best one
