This server is probably the best server out there at the moment, but as ahed said somewhere, it would be the true #1 server if the end-game gear isn't luck based. But yeah, you should play this.About sage seekers, that is a no. Why? Yeah, sage seeker is OP on this server but seeker is a 1v1 class. Not many factions are currently recruiting seekers so it will be harsh. And if you don't have a faction with a big reputation (Ducks, NoHomo, Xpendables, HangOver and Sync) you will most likely be ganked and there will be noone to stand up to you. I'm tellin you this as a sin; not many factions are recruiting barbs and sins.Gettin to 150 is pretty easy, a couple of hours. Though, gettin perfect stats on your r8 will take time. It took me 30k ec to get double interval wrists (#DatBadLuck) and only got it because a friend gave me 2k ec at some point. But farming is decent here, not too easy, not too hard; just takes time.Tl;dr - play this server; don't play a seeker, play a wiz/archer/cleric/bm/barb and you will be fine; join one of the factions above and you will be even better but Xpendables, HO, Ducks and NoHomo are the current best imo; donate and get dat op gear and you will be the best.
