Got to say I also agree that server numbers are down. Sales on my stalls have fallen off the cliff. Golds not really selling either. I hardly sell any torches (Mags), after the cutting it from 3 hours down to 1.5 hours. I did ask Scorp about this October 2025 and I got :-

Hey
To be fair we used to have 3 tiers of them with 1h 2h 3h durations but everyone just bought the 3h.

Main reason for the change of time was the fact they are now removeable so people are reducing their consumption by taking them off. The "low" price was set due to the fact they were single use and it was a real choice which one to use (plus once upon a time they decayed in SZ).

I think the new sets are scheduled for later next year.. it's still a bit early for them.

So by his own admission everyone was buying 3h ones previously when there was a choice, even I rarely buy them now. Why not leave them at 3 hrs, what does it cost Scorp?, nothing, but the community would have been a lot happier if you just made them swappable. Scorp may even think that because gg mag sales are down to people taking them on and off. But I wouldn't mind betting its because people just don't bother with them because you cut time in half. He only had to change it because an update he added, did not allow us to be able to use it if we were using torches.

The Easter event when he sprung the restrictions on GG rooms, for me not so much of an issue, but for those other's that had bought Arcadian items thinking they would get the ore to upgrade their kit. Big slap in the face. Also no explanation as to why or that it was planned. I would have liked to of had the previous allowances using DS GG Loyalty and ME. Everyone has a choice then.

Helping Hero I just don't bother much to be honest, stupidly went in one with full moon, I think I was revved almost immediately and reds and blues every where. The moment the range mobs are there game over. I did complete one the other day but the new one wanted 120 Myth essence, so that's not happening just have to w8 3 days now before I attempt another one. There are a handful of members that don't come on now because of what has been happening and being busy with RL things.

It just has felt over the last 12/18 months, and my own opinion only, is the fact that Scorp is having a money grab in lots of ways. Pissing off the community as it goes. Yes it's a balancing act and very hard to keep all happy, but changing some of the basics and not listening to the community, not keeping us informed!. Let us know what your working on, what the plans are. LISTEN and FIX some of what the wide spectrum of your community is telling you, SHARE.

We've had a reboot and no update on the Event boards. Are we getting any buffs for the upcoming Bank holiday?. Is The Badlands coming back in the summer?

Personally I'm not buying anymore GG at the moment, not that I bought a great deal, just cycling through what I have on Gold stall. Just feel like a mushroom!!

Perfectly explained.
 
I quit last year after falling out of love with the game, afterall mir is nearly three decades old now and regardless of how much updates are added the base experience will always be the same.

The server went downhill once ely orbs were introduced, the constant need to collect ores for them just got such a drain.

Then constant events where ely item variants dropped like candy that made all the upgraded original ely items obsolete. This also ruined the economy.

Sadly this was a good server with alot of good people but as people have left the server has slowly died and people are the main reason a server survives long term ultimately.

Ely orbs isn't a mandatory need for u to play the game, there're other kits to use, but if u say u want to compete with other players but couldn't, then i get u. It's a personal choice tbh.
 
The thing is, there’s no middle ground because it’s such a small usercount.

The bosses, the server, the market are all controlled by a few. It’s impossible to catch up without paying real money.

With events being toned down for gg caves people can’t catch up by power levelling in events. Like those that are 205 got the benefit of.

It’s a difficult situation but I think it’s in a managed decline. Which is painful as I love this server, it’s the best Mir server there is hands down.

The people who are 205 plus have obviously put the effort in to reach that level. it's far easier to level now than it was years ago 100% I level my chars not just during event but inbetween too. Makes it so much easier and less demanding when events are on then. If your struggling to level it probably the guild your in that's not hunting as a group and that's when boredom kicks in.
 
each day I’m starting to feel the managed decline of the server more and more. Gm has had enough by the looks of it and is winding down. Nothing makes sense. There’s new Arcadian armours and weapons dropping everyday and no one has even upgraded any yet because most Ely ore sources have been tapped closed. The average player can expect to make probably 1 Elysian orb a year if they’re lucky at this moment in time. Bear in mind one upgrade on an Arcadian armour costs 81 ores. Weapon costs 81ores. Then if u want them to be better than the armours and weps we already have they need elys orbing. So we’re talking 4 years to upgrade a brand new endgame content armour and a weapon that is weaker than the Elysian stuff we already have. What a fucking farce lol. He’s defo handed the server to he’s kids to deal with I think 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m hanging by a thread il be gone soon
 
What we need is user count, make wars fun. PK if anything gets the adrenaline going which I miss.

I just feel it’s rinse and repeat at the moment so have fallen a little out of love of the game but if you have a group to hunt with it is still fun.
 
I just logged on, 103 people online, 16 are noobs in base dress in random towns/stalls

Plus me who isn't really playing. That's still 86 players kicking about on a 13 year old server. The problem is everybody is spread out all over the place - the game is so vast. 86 players probably 14 active guilds and hundreds of caves/zones.

Collectible upgrade quests on every single armour + weapon set after 160 is repetitive & tedious. Never been a fan, then ElysianOrbs with 5% resistance across the board just fucked it up even more

I was moaning in guild during event about the fact that I didn't have a single armour drop during whole event. Then I realised that there was no armours that could drop. Like you say from 160 to now no new armours.

I will partially disagree that scorps given up. With the interactions I've had with him, he obviously is planning and working on other updates for the future. But I just wish he would communicate this to the community and fix some of the issues that have driven so many to leave.

I also don't see elysian orbs as an issue, I am Level 209 I have made 1 L for armour 1st upgrade and obviously the XL for 2nd upgrade. No ely weapon, I gave that to someone. Levelling is a whole lot easier now than when I 1st started playing.
