Dear community,
I'am glad to present you our simply0wn Silkroad-Server.
This server is about Nostalgia and the old essence of Silkroad Online.
I really put alot of work into fixing the japanese Silkroad Files from 2007, and now I want to share my work with you. The reason why I did this is because of the Nostalgia and Love for Silkroad Online, and it's sad how joymax destroyed it. So let's just try to revive this with simply0wn, because this is our vision.


Now let's get to the important stuff:
Here are some simple reasons why simply0wn sro will bring you back to the past:
Silkroad Game Client from 2007 (Japanese Silkroad Online)
Oldschool trading system
No Over Edits
No Bots (At least no working 3rd Party Program for this files)
Old Game Design
Fixed dupe bugs
Silk per Hour System (you will start with 3 silks)

Another reason will be the fact that we are straight against all kind of 3rd-Party Programs!
The rates are fine, you can level up very quick.

Nice, I might take a look.

Reminds me of Silkroad Revelations, one of the best private servers I played.

I will be checking this out for sure as well.

Seems very interesting

Anyone up for it?

I'll be there as well. ^^ Opening time is when I usually have dinner, so I'll start a little later though.

But which character build to choose... I feel like making a Chinese to be honest (either Bow or S/S), but if that doesn't get me in awesome share PTs, I won't.

i will be in for sure.
IGN: Vampore

For china chars only 1 slot in a PT. Even than, a rogue is the better choice as lurer.

I guess we will need Str clerics, I can't be here for opening too. Will download it tomorrow evening.

Yeah, that's what I thought... I'll probably play my CH solo when there's no one else online.

Still hesitating for PT play though, but I might make a Warlock/Cleric. It's what I had on iSRO during 90/100 cap. Only the difference back then was that I was the only high level Warlock on the server and these days so many people choose Warlock. (I kinda like being more unique. )

I'm guessing Bards will need to be with 2 to dance here? Don't feel like making a Bard/Cleric anyway. Euro characters I'd pick would either be Warrior/Warlock, Warrior/Cleric or Warlock/Cleric.

PT setup will be 2x Cleric, 1x Warrior, 1x Bard, 1x Lure and 3x Wiz. You want to be unique? Make Wizard/Warlock. I had one in old Revelations: for PT grinding it was amazing. Go Warlock for a min -> full zerk -> go Wiz -> repeat.

Really can't decide between a Warlock/Cleric, a Rogue/Bard or a Rogue/Cleric. Ah well... might go Rogue/Cleric.

At least I can then both be lurer or strength cleric.

You guys better join before I hit cap. o.O
Also BlackHand is recruiting legit players. ^^



Also, a staff member liked my Warlock zerk-grinding.


(Nevermind that part about failing. I definitely didn't die... I just didn't stay alive.)

So I went with a rogue and joined BlackHand

I like to join that BlackHand Guild.
i pm you guys when im back from work.

Awesome, thanks!
My current IGN is Valkyrie (Not to be confused with Valkyria's variations... I didn't realize there were more of us until I'd played for several hours yesterday ).

during the week im only 1-2h online , but at the weekend - hell thats fun

pretty great server!

only downfal is there's almost no low lvl parties / no low lvl powerlvling (wich is what we used to do @ Venus so they'd reach penors lvl quickly wich is when parties started to happen)

oh well, not gonna give up : D

however, got someone to expose!
me and Sith were partying earlier and this guys joined us, he's either a botter or a keypresser, here's himself admitting it (he'll get banned right or get legit, either way ppl will notice him : D)


PS: someone was saying dupe bugs work, meh

Nice to see that you joined, man
We do actually do Ong parties to level people up. Just ask in the guild

And nice find. I suppose he was just kidding, though. There really is no bot for these server files, although he could of course be talking about a keypresser. Just report it to the admins at: support@simply0wn.com

They said on Epvp that the dupe bugs were fixed before the server launched. If you know who said this, then it's probably a good idea to report that too. Just so the team can look into it


Anyway, here's a grinding video someone uploaded:

There's some powerlevel from time to time, like ltsune said. Probably more once a few people get capped & geared.
Current problem with powerlevel is that it's useless unless you can also provide the low levels with gear or gold, which I'm currently struggling with even as high level. (Might be due to the guild upgrades though.)

As for people who use keypressers, unfortunately I'm not sure that they'll get banned. We had one in guild. The GM helped us test and he did disconnect him, maybe give him a warning, but that's all. Anyway, you can still report it to [GM]Kappa ingame if he's online. He can test it.

As for the dupe bug, if anyone wants to test it let me know. Just so we can report in case it's not fixed. (I only remember one though.)
