Allods or Runes of Magic

Which game is better if i want to put no money into the cash shop? Also which has more stuff to do?

[Dante]

I never played ROM but i left allods because they thought: "Hey why not release cash shop items that you'll need to grind, and if you don't have them you will do close to no dmg?"
But this was quite some time ago, dunno if they changed their mind.

Allods is getting alot better, they are soon releasing a new patch for the Russians that remove what you speak of Dante, they will boost the players up to the regular damage and instead incence will give special buffs that will help you while exploring the Astral.

The only thing you need to spend money on is Runes, but you can get level 4 runes for free by buying from the Auction House, but if you want higher than level 4 be ready to spend some real cash

Runes of Magic might got more end game content, but Allods just got a patch that released some new PvP endgame content. I would take Allods over RoM anyday.

I downloaded and installed allods, tried a few different classes but needing help, seems pretty good so far, i posted in the official allods thread with my questions.
