You can go to the mainland, which is much much bigger, and much more fun imo!

Re: Paid Account

Instead of this you get this, which is BIG.

More people, guilds, missions/rites, regions, higher level mobs, mats (crafting), more content like outposts... more Ring options, the list goes on.

Re: Paid Account

Differences between Silan and mainland

- you can't past level 60
- no ranged weapons
- no outposts, no GvG, no FvF (really a big part of Ryzom)
- no mektoubs (hosting and mount)
- no personnal housing and guild housing
- you can't change your tattoos and hair
- no prime roots
- mobs are too easy on Silan. More challenge on mainland
- mammals are not social. More challenge to hunt.
- no excel and sup mats
- Silan looks pretty, mainland is beautiful. No comparison.
- Roleplay is far more better on mainland

Re: Paid Account

Bigger, badder, yubos!!

Seriously though... Mainland is absolutely HUGE, and offers a wide variety of things to kill or be killed by. There are some seriously beautiful landscapes, lots of great people, and lots of great Guilds.

I subscribed and came to mainland in my late level 30's, which might have been a little soon for any serious exploring, but I've never been happier with a game subscription. 6 years of MMO play, and 2 of them wasted on another game or two while I could have been here!

Andarr summed it up very well I just wanna add, what's on island, flora, fauna, and lanadscapes, is not even the tip of the iceberg Also in my 3 years of mmo play I have not found a better community of players.

Re: Paid Account

The main difference between Silan and the mainland, I think, is that it is possible to have "done it all" on Silan. Never on the mainland.

BUT: On Silan, the things-to-do are mostly pointed out to you, and you are guided through them. On the mainland, the game does not guide you.
