Your hangout in Rune-Midgard.

On September 13 the server moved from Pre-Renewal to Renewal. Your characters, items and levels carried over. Here is what changed:

• Fourth jobs and level 275. Third jobs go to 200 and fourth jobs to 275. Renewal stats, skills and the level-gap penalty are on, so hunt monsters near your level.
• Eden Group. New characters start at the Izlude training ground. The Eden Teleport Officer in the middle of Prontera (157,185) warps you to the Eden building, where the Starter Pack NPC gives 500,000 zeny, supplies, an Infinite Fly Wing and 24 hours of VIP once per account, plus a bound gear kit after your first job change. Eden board missions give EXP, and from base level 10 you can rent the Paradise Shadow set.
• Auto Hunt. The Auto Hunt window now needs a rented device. The two traders beside the Starter Pack NPC give every account one free 4-hour pack a day; longer packs are in the Cash Shop.
• Cash is earned, never bought. The attendance calendar pays 690 cash a month, every MVP kill pays 10 (up to 50 a day), and the Cash Exchange in Prontera (146,171) trades zeny for cash both ways.
• Card Remover in Prontera (146,166), five cells south of the Cash Exchange.
• Cash Shop stocks VIP tickets, Auto Hunt packs, battle manuals, bubble gum, refine boxes and more, all for cash you earned.

Run the Launcher once to pick up the client patches. Found something odd since the switch? Tell us in Discord.

The server is open. HangoutRO is a small Pre-Renewal Ragnarok Online server built for a group of friends who want the classic game without the grind: 5x EXP, 15x drops, cards kept rare, and no EXP loss on death.

Grab the client from the Download page, create an account, and run HangoutRO Launcher to patch and play. In Prontera you will find a Warper, Job Master, Healer, Stylist and a stat/skill Reset NPC.
