What are some smaller MMORPGs with NO pay to win and an active enough community?

What is p2w to you? All MMOs are p2w in some way.

Basically all MMOs????? They're obviously plagued by nagging cosmetic shops but it's only the sloppiest of Korean coombait and chink gacha that actually have p2w.
A lot of them will offer paid boosts to max level but I wouldn't call that p2w because what the fuck are you winning by paying to spend less time playing the game?

All of them sell the in-game currency for cash. Either directly or via cash shop items. Is this p2w? If they don't do it, 3rd party websites will do it.

I was thinking this, but
>Skill unlock pack
>Mercenary heroes
It's not a lot of pay2win, but it's not nothing, either.

You are correct but bear in mind you are interacting with people who unironically think heavily instanced 4-8 player content is 'massively multi-player' instead of literally just being every single online lobby rpg from the early 2000s. The term has been poisoned beyond all repair because MMORPG players have no standards.

mmos make things boring and slow on purpose to punish you
it makes them money both in f2p (buy xp boosts) and in sub-based (slow leveling means more time spent playing, thus longer subs) models

Dragon's Dogma Online, if you don't mind it being a private server.
It has a strong 5k members in its Discord server, and around 600 ~ 800 players on at the same time on weekends.
