Midgard Tales is a free Ragnarok Online private server running on the Renewal engine at high rates, and has established itself as one of the most content-forward private RO servers available. The server was notably the first private server to introduce Episode 20, and has since progressed to Episode 21: Age of Heroes — Chapter 1: Call of the World Tree — with the latest 4th Job class, Druid, fully released. Rates are set at 200x Base/Job EXP and 20x item drops, providing fast progression that respects players' time while avoiding the instant-gratification pitfalls of super-high-rate servers. The max level is 275/60, aligning with official kRO Renewal progression. A Training Camp system lets brand new players instantly reach level 200 with starter gear, allowing them to experience the main content immediately. With approximately 297 players online and over 4,600 characters enrolled in guilds, Midgard Tales maintains a genuinely active and organized community. The server employs Gepard Client protection against bots and cheats, and positions itself explicitly as low-to-no pay-to-win through a Zeny-to-Cash exchange system that keeps premium currency earnable in-game.
