Worth coming back after long absence?

  • Hello hope not really dead forum,
    I used to play here like 2-3 years ago, so decided to come back play a bit till the game completely dies out (unless it already did), so my main questions are:

    • Is it still alive?
    • Will i be able to do dungeons?
    • Is the community as toxic as youtube comments tell?
    • Is Elitism a huge thing and new people are tosted aside and ridiculed?
    • As a clear f2p user, do i even have a slight chance of getting gear before new update comes up or should i wait for League of Levelers (I've noticed that this "event" is quite helpful if gf still runs it)

    Thank you if i get answers.

  • 1. Imo the alive word can mean a lot of things, its only depend on the individual preferences.


    2. Everyone able to dungeons. But low lvl dungs queue time can be ridiculous.


    3. As in every game mostly the toxic players whom have attention grabbing problems so you can see a lot of them on social medias


    4.Ofc there is an elitist section, but mostly they are unethical players so just leave them alone.


    5.That only depend on you. Since the new gear progression exist you need to play and earn item xp. So if you can play a lot you can reach smth till next update which will be around October if i am right.

  • hi and no xd


    1. Barely
    2. Yes but most of the pve endgame is done by statics and elitist guilds
    3. yes it is, especially with all these cheater proxy kiddos playing the game, they had no (or sad) childhood so they have to live it out cheating in tera
    4. Elitism is bigger than ever, thanks to DPS meters, moongourd.com and in-game rankings
    5. You do have a chance but you'll have to do hardcore (~4-5 hours a day) grinding for at least 3 months, and that's just +9 SC, not even the best-in-slot. No idea when's the update, though.

    This is what i was mostly looking for. ~Sigh~ And i had my hopes up. Whatever, of to another MMO.

    This was never a problem, but since stuff at endgame is done with static groups and elitist guilds, 100% pass as there won't be a chance to gear up.


    Well, ty for the info.

    Hi, im new player to Tera as well, but i can tell you some things relying on my experience playing mmorpgs for 10 years now.


    a) the game of course is still alive. As new player i noticed that maybe the population is a bit low, but the game seems pretty "alive".
    b) as i noticed, dungeons are basically reserved to high level players, like in almost any other mmorpg, and as almost like in any other mmorpg, you will gain access to more and more dungeons as you level up. As the other guy said i noticed that queuing for low level dungeons sometimes its a pain. I myself got stuck in the main story line for 2 days with a character because i couldnt get to do the bastion of lok queue. The instance matching was endless. But i guess its different for high level dungeons (i hope).
    c) the community of almost every single mmorpg that actually bothers to use the general chat is always toxic. You cant avoid that, not in Tera not in almost any other mmorpg. It is how it is. If you want to avoid it, dont use general chat or use private (again, as any other mmorpg).
    d) If you say that you get bored or that you think the game is dying, why the rush to level up and gain exp? thats something i never understood in mmorpgs. The fastest you level up, the fastest you do everything, the worst it is. Just focus on having fun, not on gaining exp at all costs, its an advise....

  • 1. You wouldn't be here if it wasn't.
    2. Yes, so long as you don't rely on queue times and ask for help
    3. Yes.
    4. Yes.
    5. Depends on how soon you want to sign the contract with the Devil.

  • 1. barely
    2. yes but they are boring
    3. 10% less toxic then the youtube comments say
    4. depends a lot on the server I would say. On yurian there are elitist people but you won't meet them often since they are pretty much in their own world. if you ask for help you have 50/50 chance to find a genuine helpful person or a troll.
    5. no

  • I onced took a break and now I’m happy that I’m back in The game again. It’s worth!


    The server killian for example is very active on both pve and pve.


    There are always some toxic players, BUT there are also many nice funny players there ;)


    One thing that might help ur comeback is to get a nice guild.


    Good luck!
