The No Grind (NG) server features a level-less style of character development, where stats grow with skill usage. The name No Grind comes from the fact that there is no level-grinding. Skills & stat gains are quite high, but the caps are low, to encourage multiple characters and mixing of skill sets (see Class Ideas).

Features of the NG server include:

  • no experience or player levels
  • 350% cap on class skills for non humans, 425% for humans (non class skills are not counted towards the cap!)
  • 1000 cap on stats
  • stats are worth 2x their face value (ie 150 STR is actually worth 300)
  • skills go up at 5x reg
  • no restrictions on mixing and matching skills (ie no class cap)
  • fast skill gains
  • permanent death is off

The address of the NG server is euo.swut.net:26668.

How do I play on the NG server?
