Yes, unfortunately the server is dead. Class changes without any warning, patch locks (deadz, somik, ...), lack of decent farm area for new players led to this. I consider the current Viserion files to be the best on H5, but without an active staff it is difficult to keep the server alive.
It's hard to understand how edited servers with horrible files, like Exilium, have 20x more players than Viserion, but that's the reality.
Wipe is an alternative, but not necessarily the only one. An incentive campaign for new clans, an incentive campaign for videos and streamings, a decent farm area where a new ppl wouldn't have to spend months farming to make the char full, change of schedule from oly to Latinos to fight (I guess after Russians , Latin players are the biggest community), inclusion of another connection route to decrease latency of non-European players, could revive the server, but with the little time that GM Max dedicates to the project, it is unlikely that anything will be done.
As everything here at Viserion is slow and even a decision to reactivate the server should take months, as unfortunately Max doesn't have time for the project, we are looking for other H5's to play, if anyone has a good recommendation it will be welcome.
