If you don't like pay2win then this game isn't for you, you'll get bored of getting rekt by nerds with 100k RP worth of gear and scrolls later on at higher levels.
This is the thing with rohan, you always gotta expect to be PK'ed. This game is all about PK'ing for the ****s. At ur lvl I'd stick with Rakhon as it is more of a "trek" for Pk'ers to reach you and it's also harder for them since there are a lot of rooms to search or just do ur daily dungeon runs.
This game was so much better in 2009, less P2Win garbage, and agi dhans were pvp beasts xD, loved killing bitches with 1k crits. Good times.
EDIT: hoy, still see a few active oldies in the forums. Btw GNYU still around? Missed the qq'ing.
