I've decided to no life mabi once again but the last time i played was when shyllien and hilliwen came out so im a bit unsure on what i should be focusing on and how to progress. I also learned about the server merge, and i tend to whale a bit since i do like selling and buying stuff, hows the economy for both server if i may ask?

    There are fears of decline on Alexina after the merge, but still not enough data to prove if there is a true decline.
    Nao's economy is a lot more fluid now, but prices have gone up overall.

    If you have characters on both servers, it is best you have a look yourself to see which one is more comfortable for you.
    If you're looking for fluid transactions with big numbers, perhaps Nao is a bit faster than Alexina now, but I'll let those cross servers to decide.

    There are plenty of skillsets to help you build and strengthen your character, and if you're starting anew, like Helsa mentioned, chain blade is a good investment, especially if you're already familiar with the basic combat mechanics and you'll have various boosts/incentives with a new character as well.

    There's something called the auction house. Renting houses isn't a thing anymore.

    Although people can lease the house on their homestead (which cannot be used to sell stuff).

    First off, tackle the generation quests you need to catch up on. Worry about equipment and skills later.

    Although getting some skills to catch up on generation quests do help.

    No proof because you aren't from Alexina, but as Alexinian i can surely tell it became more dead with each month and it's hitting records of decline more and more i'm pretty sure.

    Now you know how we felt.

    But only slightly.

    To truly feel the sting, you need to experience it for a good few years.

    Another Alexinian; it's pretty dead here. I have not even seen Channel 1 Busy in quite some time, even before school season began.

    everyone saying alexina is dead yet i went to musical place and even my pc lagged being there with how many people were there. it all depends on the channel you are on, its completely dead on ch 5 for incident in most places that i see, but say ch 1 or ch 6 have more people for some reason.

    people just really want it to be dead i guess.

    It's busier for this event. Since it is a fishing event folks log-in for a while.

    Nexon has placed a firewall to stop traffic information, about the servers, being viewed on the wiki page; ain't that curious.

    Probably 80% of whole active server playerbase decided to gather up because everyone needs to finish that annoying ass campfire sharing task.

    Well, if there are numbers and data reported, they will back up your experiences of decline won't it?

    Leave, don't come back. Find something better to play, mabi has had a steady population drop all this year and most of last.

    You two are part of the doomsayers, aren't you? :P

    Economy is a bigger mess than it used to be but that's already been covered. Hope you enjoy your return though and good luck to you
