I just started playing. Killing chickens near lumbridge and loving the newb feel of 2004 scape.
I saw the servers only been out like 2 or 3 months and was surprised to see people close to 99s. I thought to myself okay wow this server must have low exp rates (not realising they are the exact same exp rates as runescape)
Then i thought how on earth are people on a 1 to 1 private server with the same exp rates already almost at 99s?
Does legacy account just let you start with your old characters high levels? If so thatsba little deflating that everyone doesnt have to start fresh.
Okay thank you. Then how come whe i made my account it gave me the option to use a legacy account or a mew account. Thats my confusion. If everyone had to restart then wtf is a legacy account?
A legacy account is any account created prior to 18th February 2025 that has not yet been linked to Discord.
Before we started using Discord for SSO, users were able to set an account recovery email on the website. The recovery email system was replaced by Discord on February 18th and non-Discord accounts are now referred to as “legacy” accounts.
Nobody got any sort of advantage, all characters were wiped on February 1st when beta launched.
Okay this clears it up alot. Thabks so much. Im goona do a rank gaming session this afternoon. Currently gathering feathers so i can buy my first srmor and weapon lol
