Custom cap
We've developed a system which will allow players to customize their characters like never before.
Our normal cap is 80, meaning you can grind to level 80 on mobs, after that it will not be able to level up from monsters anymore. To reach level 81 to 85 there are custom quests available in Jangan, each with a unique goal. Upon completing one of these quests you will advance a level and gain a title, granting you the stat points and skills available on the next level. Upon reaching level 85 you will unlock the skill extension system.
Skill extension system
An incredibly innovative never before seen system which allows us to literally provide an endless amount of content and customization to the players. You can unlock skill extensions by reaching level 85. Once you're 85 and your skills are the same level you'll notice that you can push your skills even further. After 85 every skill gains from 3 to 6 new levels. These levels will each cost an immense amount of skillpoints which is why you'll have to take up a quest and go to the job cave where you will compete with other players to complete the quest and get your skill point rewards.
Each character has a limited amount of quests he can do, therefore you have to choose which skills you want to extend further which will allow you to have a completely unique character that fits your style.
Job temple You can enter the job temple at level 80. By purchasing tokens from the hotan blacksmith you'll be able to respawn upon death at the cave entrance, which saves you the journey all the way from hotan. All the mobs in job cave have a chance to drop gold coins. With gold coins you'll be able to purchase a seal of moon weapon from the Hotan Blacksmith.
Grinding
Whether you want to solo grind or whether its party play Venture features a large variety of grind spots throughout the whole map and the Qin-Shi dungeon.
These custom spots have been adjusted to have an incredibly fast spawn rate, hence compensating for the lower exp rates.
Ancients
Over 25 custom ancient monsters have been added throughout the lands of Venture. 2 Types - Ancient and Raid. Ancient monsters have increased attacking power and a large health pool. Raid Ancients are even stronger and in many cases will require you to team up with other players to take them down.
Lower level ancient and raid monsters have a high chance to drop seal of sun weapons.
Grinding spot and ancient spawn maps will be available at our website once Venture launches.
Reviving the item system
Various items have been added throughout the game which you can acquire from either killing ancients or venturing into the forgotten world.
We removed alchemy materials from drops and just added stones to Hotan Jeweler.
Items you can get: Global chatting, monster summon scrolls, pandora boxes, speed boost scrolls*,gold boxes, experience tickets*.
*Speed boost - an item which increases your speed for a short period of time, use it to get away from a troublesome situation or to catch up to your target. *Gold box - item which can only be sold to NPCs. There are different grades and types of gold boxes, one worth more than the other. *Experience ticket - items which drop in all forgotten worlds up to the last one (81-90). You can take a quest in Jangan which will allow you to exchange your ticket for an experience reward. There are different types and grades of experience tickets aswell. This also compensates for the lower exp rates.
The item mall and Magic POP
Various items have been removed from the game to restore balance such as: Devil spirits, premiums*, damage/defense scrolls. In Magic POP you can only win items that wont give you an advantage in the end game, 8d items have been removed entirely.[/center] *Premium will later be added to the game with different benefits - (damage increase and absorption have been removed).
Triangular conflict
Job rates and rewards have been increased. Two of the quests in the endgame leveling system will also provide incentive for players to take on a job.
All job titles have been reworked and exp requirement for levels adjusted.
After we launch we will start working on custom trade points throughout the map with different rewards and challenges.
Team: To fight corruption and nonsense we have a small team:
Perry - Pk2 editing, database editing, website coding/management, balancing.
Feedback
A lot of stuff we haven't mentioned in this thread is because its just too overwhelming to talk about all the features and the gameplay feel that Venture provides. Some of the content we haven't mentioned you'll find out on your own, and we assure you - it is quite a challenge.
Due to an incredible amount of content we've created and changes we've made we'll need you to post your feedback/oppinions and reports to our forums so that we can polish the imperfections that may have been left in.
Future updates
A big and advanced armoury/statistics website
A system for buying/selecting titles on our website
Didn't know you had an acc here lol. Now make a terrain editor and you'll be able to create something really unique. An interesting server, might check this out.

Vsro files I presume? If there is really a terrain editor being developed then I would expect that this would be zelos files. Either way looks interesting. I'll give it a shot.

Developping a server and website practically on your own costs a lot of time, the map editor is pushed back a while, I am planning to work on it later though, and make my current map viewer able to fully edit everything map-related.

Since npcdoom decided to halt development of the emulator, this is the closest server you'll find to zelos (it has me in it, isn't that enough )
low rates, no free silk. People tend to be a little bit too spoiled by most pservers nowadays, and I doubt they'll notice that a pserver that gives out free seal of sun items and silk items is just unmanagable in the long run
It's common for E*pvpers to go all like "NOOB SERWER NO FREE SYLK", but not the SRF. Most of the people here like servers with nice features, and not only high rates servers.

Low rates are a lot better. That usually means there is something else to make lvling faster other than grinding. It's the lazy man's way of lvling faster to just raise the rates.
