What's the benefits of upgrading to a paid account?

You can go to the mainland, which is much much bigger, and much more fun imo!

indeed as Sxarlet says.

So much more to see and do and die from , and also get those higher lvls faster

And all the Ranged skills

Nevrax staff get to eat again

The start isle is an unlimited 'demo', there is more content on the mainland, active guilds, a vast continent, generally more of....everything....
Oh, and you get to play with big shiny ranged weapons

Differences between Silan and mainland

- you can't past level 60
- no ranged weapons
- no outposts, no GvG, no FvF (really a big part of Ryzom)
- no mektoubs (hosting and mount)
- no personnal housing and guild housing
- you can't change your tattoos and hair
- no prime roots
- mobs are too easy on Silan. More challenge on mainland
- mammals are not social. More challenge to hunt.
- no excel and sup mats
- Silan looks pretty, mainland is beautiful. No comparison.
- Roleplay is far more better on mainland

Bigger, badder, yubos!!

Seriously though... Mainland is absolutely HUGE, and offers a wide variety of things to kill or be killed by. There are some seriously beautiful landscapes, lots of great people, and lots of great Guilds.

I subscribed and came to mainland in my late level 30's, which might have been a little soon for any serious exploring, but I've never been happier with a game subscription. 6 years of MMO play, and 2 of them wasted on another game or two while I could have been here!

Andarr summed it up very well I just wanna add, what's on island, flora, fauna, and lanadscapes, is not even the tip of the iceberg Also in my 3 years of mmo play I have not found a better community of players.

The main difference between Silan and the mainland, I think, is that it is possible to have "done it all" on Silan. Never on the mainland.

BUT: On Silan, the things-to-do are mostly pointed out to you, and you are guided through them. On the mainland, the game does not guide you.
