The most important thing is that, donation doesn't decide anything here, you'll get excellent armor and weapons step by step by completing quests. Regarding loot, there is no tie to tier, you can find the item you need anywhere, so players don't all sit in one location on the whole server. Adequate prices for donation and services, personally I use the VIP service, if you die you'll respawn with your loot, top option for the money, highly recommend!
The community as a whole is friendly, sometimes even too much, a newbie and even an already geared player can be given not bad gear, they'll always tell you, give advice, or even just give you a tour, like with me, on Tisy.
Admins are top, they respond to tickets quickly and help, cool events from admins
