  • This depends on if you are talking a Renewal or Pre-Renewal Poring, as Renewal stats range from slightly higher to very inflated and gives the traditionally weak Poring some sense of defense, greater HP, and more damage that would allow them to more easily overcome the significantly higher Soft DEF (also known as VIT DEF) of the Slime.

    • Neeeeeerd.

      But yeah pre I guess because that's when I played. The ghostring were tough too I think?

      • Oh yeah, a Ghostring is significantly stronger than a Poring. There's a dozen different variations just like the Slime family.

        • Memory is hazy but I do think I was killed by one in the desert part of Midgard.

          • The ones in the desert are usually a Drops. They're equally cute.

            • little fellow jumping around

            • oooooh yeah! I didn't get to endgame RO, I just use to muck around on the maps around Prontera. Highest mobs I was hunting were orcs in the orc village or zombies in Payon.

              • Thats about as far as I got back in the day but I played a lot of private servers over the years also and made it to Hyper Assassassin French Guillotine Cross level 275 and whatever. There's 4th jobs I'm not even familiar with now.

                I have 0 negative memories from any time I've ever played that game though and still think the sprite art is so beautiful and some of my favorite ever in video games. My dad got an install disc sent in the mail and it was my first online experience interacting with other people outside friends in AIM or something.

                If there were enough people on this site that wanted to play, I'd definitely do it. Pre-re or Re. There's good private servers for both that dont go overboard with custom stuff or shut down every few months.

                • lmk if you ever want to play I'm down. I mucked around with retail and a private server, Payon Stories last year but only made it to job class 1. Prontera on retail is a nightmare to navigate.

                  • I started looking into it and I guess things got pretty shaken up the last year. NovaRO, the biggest private server, lost a court case against Gravity when they went on a private server crackdown. The highest pop private server seems to be around 180 people? Which you dont really need thousands of people to make an MMO work. FFXI does fine with a few hundred. It sounds like jRO or twRO are the best ways to play nowadays since iRO is still a wreck and kRO is inaccessible without a Korean ID. I'm gonna look into it more and maybe make a post soon, then I'll tag you for sure.
