Overview

F2P is an acronym meaning "Free to Play." Servers which are F2P are supported by extra Shop Items, and generally have setting modifications that are less "friendly" than the subscription-based servers (if that region has any). These settings changes vary between different localizations of Ragnarok Online, but most common changes among various F2P servers include greatly increased death penalties (up to 5%), disabled teleportation skills/items, and removed safe levels on item upgrading.

iRO's free server is called Valkyrie. A comparison between Valkyrie and the Premium (Ymir & Yggdrasil) servers can be found farther down on this page.

Some of these servers also offer optional subscriptions that can be purchased to increase EXP/Drop rates and/or to decrease death penalties, among other benefits.
