This is the problem with these topics, people make claims without knowing what they are talking about. Currently, eA is going through a transformation, half of the community wants to split, while half wants to stay. The only person actively working on 3rd class skills in L0ne_W0lf. However, as of yesterday, he has only been able to get a single job half-way done. Note, that this is without much testing, simply seeing if the skills work at all. Currently, the only project that has "working" 3rd jobs is 3ceam. However, they use the old mechanics, not renewal mechanics. Let me quote you an excerpt from their website: "The game play in this code uses the classic RO game mechanics... This project WILL NOT support renewal mechanics." This means that when it says "increase damage by 4,000" it means damage output will be increased by that much. It abides by the old system, not the new one. Furthermore, there have been numerous (and I do mean numerous) exploits found on 3ceam with the new skills. What I mean by "exploits" is on multiple occasions, people have been able to crash the server on demand. Lastly, 3ceam is no longer properly maintained. There have been 5 commits in nearly 2 months. We are relatively up to date. Many thinks are implemented, but not enabled (i.e. battlegrounds) this is because instead of adding something that will function poorly on a highrate, we'd rather wait a while longer and customize it to fit our theme. RO is free now. Anyone that continues to play a private server does so either because their friends play it or because they enjoy the customizations provided by said server.
