**MU Online Classic+ 97–99 – A New Server in Development**

[classicmu]

Hello everyone,

I'd like to officially introduce a project we've been working on for quite some time.

**MU Online Classic+ 97–99**

Our goal is not to create another server that opens, runs for a few weeks, and disappears.

We want to take the atmosphere of the old MU 97–99 that many of us remember and expand it with new systems while still keeping the true **Classic MU** feeling.

Not Season 20 disguised as 97d.
Not a server overloaded with modern systems that have nothing to do with old-school MU.

**Classic MU, but with more depth and long-term progression.**

Here are some of the systems we are currently working on:

**Item Rank System**

Equipment will have an additional layer of progression through Rank Options and different rarity levels.

The Rank System includes its own Upgrade, Refinery, and Merge mechanics. The goal is not to replace the classic MU item system, but to give players another way to continuously improve and develop their equipment.

**Tier 1–6 Progression**

Equipment will be divided into individual Tiers based on its level and progression.

The journey will start with basic equipment and Box of Kundun sets and continue all the way toward true endgame gear.

Tier will not simply be a number attached to an item. It will affect other systems, upgrade difficulty, Item Rank possibilities, and the overall progression of your character.

**Story Quest System**

The server will feature a progressive quest journey through different parts of the MU world:

Lorencia → Noria → Dungeon → Devias → Lost Tower → Atlans → Tarkan → Icarus → Kalima.

Quests will not simply be something you complete at the beginning of the game and forget about.

We want them to be connected with server progression, PvE content, and meaningful rewards.

**Reworked PvE Progression**

Maps, monsters, spots, level requirements, drops, and rewards are being adjusted so that every part of the progression makes sense.

We do not want players to skip half of the maps or spend most of the game farming the same single spot.

Every part of the server should have a reason to be played.

**Extended Guild System**

A guild will be more than just a name above your character.

Guilds will have their own progression system and **Guild Points (GP)** earned through active gameplay.

Guild Points will be used to develop the guild further, including:

* Guild Shop and exclusive guild rewards
* Progressive Guild Ranks
* Guild Warehouse expansion
* Unlocking additional guild features
* Shared progression for the entire guild

We want active guilds to have long-term goals and give players a real reason to cooperate beyond Guild Wars or Castle Siege.

**Zen Economy**

We do not want Zen to become just another meaningless number in your inventory with everyone carrying billions.

Zen will be part of resets, movement between maps, the Chaos Machine, and other systems.

At the same time, we do not want to create a server where players spend half of their time farming Zen just to continue progressing.

The goal is to create an economy where Zen has real value without becoming an unnecessary barrier to gameplay.

**Long-Term Reset Progression**

The server will be reset-based and focused mainly on PvE progression and gradually developing your character.

We do not want the entire server progression to be finished after a few days once a player obtains their first good set.

The different systems are being designed so that players will always have smaller and larger goals to work toward.

The server is currently still **under development and active testing**.

We do not want to announce an opening date yet. We would rather open later with a properly prepared server than rush the release and spend the first weeks fixing fundamental problems.

From now on, however, we want to gradually start showing you individual systems, gameplay previews, videos, development updates, and changes.

If you enjoy old-school MU Online 97–99 but do not want to play the exact same server for the tenth time, we would be happy to have you follow the development with us.

**MU Classic+ 97–99**

Old-school MU feeling.
New progression.
Still the MU you remember.
