Me and 4 of my friends have started to play mabinogi ironman mode. This means we do not trade other players than within our little group, we create or obtain through ingame ways (not paying real dosh) all of our items. we also decided to have a restriction on how we can spend nx, we only but pets, and we can't have more than one of any kind of pet.

By doing this post i wanted to know if anyone was playing mabinogi this way already, or if there are people who would be interested in playing mabinogi this way.

By playing this way you really get to enjoy doing all the content the game has to offer. you get excited when you obtain what would be -removed- items on a normal character. It really is about enjoying the game for its real potential. 3 of us were veteran player who were fed up with how mabi has become more and more pay to play (mostly reforges honestly) over the years (not counting the time where you had to pay to rebirth xD). Honestly I've never had as much fun playing mabi as I am now.

We will be creating a guild, and if anyone is interested in playing this way, feel free to pm me, we also have a discord.

    That sounds boring, to be honest.

    Sounds more like playing like a peasant than ironman whose super power is literally having money...

    That's a nuzlocke. The very idea of doing a mabi nuzlocke just sounds... painful.

    It's possible, but you gotta be a real masochist to go deathless. The idea sounds tempting enough ( for that extra challenge ) but hm.

    Ah, that's right. Thanks.

    Well, if someone were to do that, they'd better invest in Hero Rebirths so they have that second character ready to be a little better than the first, haha.

    Honestly, I love the idea. Not sure about the name being called Ironman but the game is only boring if you can't think of anything to do. I find the most fun out of everything I do in Mabi, even if it's with the weakest of monsters that don't give me exp or just sitting around looking at the view.

    I believe that's hardcore/super iron man, not sure.

    Ironman challenge is one of the best! I used it do it on some other games and I thought Mabinogi had the right tools to make it a fun Ironman challenge. Share your progress, its really entertaining.

    For those that don't know - These are a bit extreme so don't have to follow every single one since it doesn't fit each game.

    Ironman Challenge Rules

    All gear employed must be White or Grey. Also, no Heirlooms of any sort.
    No transfer of gear, items or money from any other character (yours or others)
    No gear enhancement(s), thus no Socket Gems, Enchanting or Reforging. Exceptions exist for class abilities. (example: Rogue poisons)
    No specializations, talent points, or glyphs. This restriction also applies to talent points for pets.
    No professions or secondary skills. An exception is made for First Aid.
    No potions/flasks/elixirs (except Quest items)
    No food buffs or other external buffs.
    No grouping or assistance from other characters, even if not grouped.
    No dungeons/raids. No battlegrounds/arenas.
    No guilds. An exception is made for Ironman guilds (no perks)
    No Refer-A- Friend activities. The intention of the challenge is that it be done without assistance.
    No add-ons that assist in combat and/or leveling.

    I thought leveling an elf with just range was the Ironman Challenge :D. . .

    With all the x2 events I was able to finish most of all life skills on a new elf I made~

    (Also, they must wear crocs :D )
