Multi-account server or mono-account server?

[Masku⁶₆⁷]

Good evening people, I am an old Dofus player (played for about a decade) who abandoned the game for various reasons (my friends/guild members gradually leaved the game, several disappointing updates, etc..). Recently, I tried playing both Dofus and Dofus Retro again, but unfortunately, they couldn't give me the same vibes as before. After not even an hour of gameplay, I no longer felt like playing (while back then, I often pulled all-nighters). So, I decided to completely leave this world, but I don't want to distance myself too much because I am fond of the Ankama Universe.

The recent announcement of the fourth season of Wakfu got me excited and made me want to come back to play. The problem is that I have never played Wakfu (except when the Alpha and Beta were released at the time), and now that I have started the game, I am faced with a big dilemma: multi-account server or mono-account server?

I would like to know your opinion and experience with these two types of servers and which one is more convenient, what are the pros and cons?

My goal (aside from having fun) is to meet people to play with and maybe even make friends. You might suggest going to a mono-account server, but isn't there a risk of becoming too dependent on other players? So, if you don't find people to play with, do you automatically get stuck and unable to progress? In terms of economy, how are the prices of items and resources? Are they less expensive on multi-account servers or mono-account servers?

Thank you for taking the time to read my message and for your availability !

Multi-account is for soloist rich players nowadays, also low population.
mono-account is definitely the way to go for you, being dependent on others is not a bad thing, join a guild and make friends, do runs with them, also high population.

Thank you for the response, sister!
For now, I've started on a mono-account server, and let's see how it goes!
Indeed, if multi-account servers are like those in Dofus, then it's not worth it...in recent years, if you want to do any group activity, it equals paying with real money (not the subscription for the online, but the player or players in question), which has somewhat 'killed' this type of server and the essence of an MMO, meeting random people to play with, and, why not, if there's a feeling, making friends or, as you mentioned, joining a guild and having fun together.

Things are definitely less expensive on the mono server.
But unfortunately, other than that, there's no noticeable positive difference between it and the normal server.

If you are deadset on playing, I suggest going onto the original server.
You won't find people to play with on either server, so having the option to play with yourself serves as a bandaid for that.

dumb question but what exactly is the difference between mono and multi in this case? im on rubliax and as it seems i can control up to 3 characters right? can you only control 1 in the mono server? or is that something else?

i guess as a solo player rubilax would be the place to go right?

Game isn't worth playing. Also, Ankama hates its non-FR fans, so idk why anyone still supports them. They're such an awful company, lmao.

Yeah in ogrest server you only control 1 character so guilds are very relevant right now for group play

There are no stupid questions, bro !
The difference between a multi-account server and a mono-account server is that in the former, you can play with multiple characters simultaneously on the same computer, which makes you less ''dependent'' on other players. The in-game economy system is also different compared to the two types of servers. In the latter case, you can only play with one character, so you're forced to interact with other players to progress together or join an active guild. In short, in the first case, you can almost experience it like a ''single-player'' game, while in the second, having relationships with other players is essential.

I played this game for about a month for 185 hours, which is "few" considering the content it offers. My experience is related to the French mono-account server Ogrest, which overall was very positive. I always found people easily for XP or dungeons, and I noticed that many active guilds recruited both new and veteran players (with Discord channel), so you feel like you're playing in a game where you're not alone.

Like any title, it has its pros and cons, which more or less are common to other games of its genre, but in my opinion, you should give it a chance !
