Birthday + Halloween + Cash Prizes & More!
15th Anniversary! QuinceaƱera for heRO!

HeRO is reaching the amazing milestone of 15th anniversary this month! Always stable, never any wipes. We believe this makes us the longest running RO private server!

We have surprises, original content, events, quests and more in store to celebrate in style and properly reward you, our lovely players!

The Hero's Journey

How do our adventures and memories impact us as a person?

Embark on this epic questing experience with Tiamat and travel through official and custom areas to become a true hero! Start with a new novice and grow to level 80 by questing, with little to no grinding involved! The first 10 players to complete The Hero's Journey will get some special extra rewards.

Halloween Quest

Lord Huppal has been living quietly for the past few years, sadly his manor is invaded again, by several ghosts and a witch, poor guy. Find him in Prontera to assist him!

Pandelina the Queen of Backpacks

Pandelina graces us with her presence as always, with free goodies and several interesting deals to offer the veterans and newcomers alike. Talk to her once per account for your free rewards. Then accumulate points by participating in events and exchange them for all sorts of Backpacks.

I enjoyed doing the Hero's Journey quest as not only does it have a good storyline, it also shows how much time and effort was put into creating these quests. Even though there were minor issues here and there, the GM team would always be quick to solve them. I also loved the new events, where they made slight changes to existing events to ensure it's not the same old events every year that would be as expected or dull. My favourite part of any event is of course the costumes. Who wouldn't like some cute or sick costumes? :3

Thank you to the GM team for all the hard work you guys put into the game. Y'all are appreciated <3

The full screenshot shows my name but if the GMs want the original screenshot, I can definitely provide it.

I liked the last few steps of the journey. Having been on heRO for many years and knowing some of the past, it was very touching.

I really enjoyed the Hero's Journey quest. I love how it introduces heRO in a unique way to new players while also paying tribute to the veterans. My favourite part of the quest was probably the poem/song that you had to help the bard write during the festivities portion of the quest. It was a very cool challenge. I also really enjoyed the portion where you need to find the cure to being poisoned by payon cave. I have never seen a status effect used like that in any quest and it was very interesting. All in all I have done the quest a few times already and plan on doing it several more times before the month is over.
Thank you for a great birthday month!
