I have been here for a short amount of time and I've already noticed what makes this server quite unbalanced to a high state. In-fact I am actually scared to even fully play this server because I strongly dislike imbalance and I don't plan to stay if nothing can not be done here.
But this server does not need a wipe, it needs to be re-edited by the way its set up. Wiping is too risky and only relies on a matter of luck, turning to lowrate will do u no justice. Solely because the other top servers have already done it. What you need is a tough highrate server and still balanced to the bone. Balance is hard but yet possible and I will now list you what is completely necessary in order to make the balance right.
What to Remove
• Scroll NPC
• Poison Bottles from useable NPC
• Stats Food NPC
• Healing Items NPC
I will just state one reason for this, discouragement. The moment myself saw this, I was already displeased and immediately starting working on this topic. This will discourage players from joining our server.
What to Change
• Make Ygg berry and seeds not useable in PVP room and WoE
• Make the ASPD 192 or 193
• Increase prices of Bottle Grenade/Acid Bottle to 90k
• Add 0.5 delay to useable items
My reason for berry changing is because of this: This strongly imbalance the server because it supports mainly for Champions and Ninjas with their two overly powered skills. This creates poor pvp gameplay, pollute the server of Champions only to "asura strike", increases the rate of players being teamed to take down a "berry" user and it makes the purpose of heal based classes pointless to use (Priest, Paladin, Creator and Champions).
As for aspd, 195 is little too much, these make Sins overly powered with their EDP skill and auto cast card skills. Not to mention it creates stunlock on the character being hit giving a huge overly-advantage to Snipers without even having to resort to any skills being used This is why there is mainly them on the server, a one class based gaming server and do we really want that? Making it 192-193 Creates balanced gameplay and rely more on tactical pvping and improves WOE Emp breaking outcomes.
Creator's are quite a terribly strong class to deal with and soon enough with different changes enabled, this class will be the next on the list to be the only class to be used if the prices of their arsenals remain the same. It gives them too much of an easy challenge and it just makes the server imbalance if they are stacked with 1000s of bottles. This is not an opinion I'm writing here, this is a full blown fact. It happened on my previous server and the change greatly improved the quality of the server and pvp.

Original Details Listed Here
Yes, these customs are a 120% overpowered and HAS to be re-edit in order for this server to even last 6 months. 2 months in and you're already getting strong complaints, and by that, you must know something is wrong then.
Here is my re-editing list of your customs in order to restore balance.
Take a good look at this, it will save the server.
Removing those cards are a urgent matter, this is the SOLE reason why it'd unbalance, this will be the downfall of the server. It defeats all purposes of gameplay & tactics. Its now about who can smash they key-button the fastest. You got to change it.
I do not know about the custom cards here, i cant get information about them.
Now i would like to suggest some customs that even a few players here know know how successful it was, it was very balanced on previous server that passed away. Lucky for you, if you are interested in these, I already have the Item_DB for these.
Here is the list
Take strong consideration in these suggestions. I will post another custom set when I get feedbacks here.[list][*]

This would improve the server a lot!
