I have absolutely nothing, so dumping time into grinding and getting items will be a pain.
Not to be the voice of negativity but the server has really slowed down in the past 2-3 years. Like Aaronock pointed out you are pretty much going to be doing quests and solo'ing from levels 1-88. Parties are pretty much non-existent and the economy has stalled. But its to be expected from a server that is 10 years old and really hasn't gotten any new content updates.
But the GM's are still very active and we still have plenty of fun events.
The problem with RO in general is the fact the population grew up and into other games. Once people could afford their own computers, they dropped playing RO because their old crappy computer that could only run a few games is no longer a bottleneck. I played Ragnarok because my machine ran it well, but not many other games. I need to figure out which class I want to play. I've played them all, but I don't know what would be most fun. Hunter was always fun to solo on, Assassin was more of a grind, Knight requires more potions than any other class, Alchemist is solid with the Homunculus quest, but a pain pre-homunculus, Blacksmith is too much money for a fresh start, Rogue is a grind, but dagger would be solid for farming zeny, Crusader is boring to me, and casters have never been my forte.
