Dear community,
this thread is about Tera and my actual experience with the game after playing it for almost 3 years.
HISTORY:
I started playing Tera on NA servers, 1 week before the Brawler patch hit. When I started, I felt in love with the game, it had amazing graphics and a very good combat system that I have never seen before.
I played Tera for a very long time, I never reached lvl 65 on Na servers but I had a lot of lvl 30 characters that I used to do CS with. I didn`t really have friends nore did I have a very big knowladge about the game itself, but I enjoyed the game, playing it, as casual player.
After playing so long on NA servers I started feeling very uncomfortable with the "population", it wasen`t really about the population, it had to do with the different time on NA, I was a new player, a player from Europe playing on servers from the other side of the world.
I had the idea to move to EU servers, and so I did.
One month before the Ninja patch, I moved to EU servers and started to play over there! I found the Killian server to be a very populated server and I was happy because I wanted to pvp. I found friends very quickly, I found a very good friend that I still have kontakt with until today. I leveld up to 65 as a Priest, I had fun in dungeons and I had fun doing Battlegrounds!
After the Ninja patch hit, I changed from a Priest main to a Reaper main. With this change I learned a lot more about the combat, I learned to chain skills together for very nice combos and I started to work more on my gear because I was lacking dps in both pve and pvp. To sum up it was a very good expirience to improve.
With the time that I invested in the game, I started to duel a lot and eventually doing 3vs3. I wanted to become a better player after all! Trying to become a better player in this game was quite hard. The community did not help and the unbalance btw classes did not either. With the time I actually understood that the game had a lot of issues like very large fps drops, ping problems, a bad community, unbalance btw classes etc etc...
I played with my Reaper for a very long time, I got full conflate and jewelry with bad rolls xD, but I never really wanted to get a +15 weapon, a lot of players said that I had to farm a lot and I was a very lazy player at the time! I played with the class for so long but never really had a very strong conection with it.
After the Arsenal patch I stoped to play the game actively, because I was very lazy to get gear for my Reaper, so I left it with Frostmetal and leveld up a lot of new characters! I played on and off for some weeks and eventually I started to main the sorcerer.
Finaly I started to play actively again and got full stormcry in some weeks, I felt a very deep conection to the class but as expected, in Tera everything that is good does not last for long.
The Awakening patch with awsome Apex skills came to ruin my life and does from all pvp players. I stoped playing for 1 week, eventually coming back and playing until today.
As I wrote above things don`t last 4ever!
I want to leave a warning to everyone playing this game!
And the warning is: This is a game with a shit developer and a bad publisher.
BECAUSE:
The developers do not care about the players at all! We have a lot of issues in the game sence I started playing and nothing was fixed until today.
1.We have FPS drops
2.We have unbalance btw classes, in both pvp and pve
3.We have lack of USEFUL content
4.We have BUGGED SKILLS and WRONG SKILL DESCRIPTONS THAT HAVEN`T BEEN FIXED FOR AGES
5.We have players using 3ed party programms
6.We have Hackers in the game
7.We have Buggs in the open world itself
And instead of fixing every stupid bugg, to make the game worth investing time into, they keep making new useless costumes, they keep adding new stupid classes and every time they say they are going to fix something they actually make it even worse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have boring dungeons with reskined Bosses and mechanics!
We keep getting old dungeons into the game and does dungeons aren´t even hard anymore because they`ve been nerfed to the ground!
So please tell me, why should you bring a new dungeon to the game if it is nerfed to the ground????????????
Just for players to farm it over and over again to get gear.
I`ve to do, the same boring content every day to farm gear, and my question is, what for?
To get 1 comboed by warriors in pvp?
To get 2 shooted by a Brawler or even 1 shooted by a HEALER?
To do the same dungeon every day?
We have no raids, the only raid we got is a 20men raid that has been here for ages and every time we get an actual "raid", we get some shit like DFHM that is ez as hell and is very bad optimized!
We have the same Battlegrounds sence the game started. We have FW/CS/GRID/3VS3 and that`s it, we got a very new Battleground called Kumas but let us be honest it is shit!
Grid got a revamp and it is better now, in my opinion it is actually very good but no one does it because the rewards are really bad!!!
It is a pity how they shit on everything we ask for.
We ask for balance and we get the Awakening patch!
We ask for a better gear system and we get the Arsenal Patch!
I wanted things to change but they keep getting worse every day, a few days ago we got an incomplete patch provided by Gameforge.
OFC, I know that a new patch is hard to bring in, without any issues, BUT Gameforge always has some kind of problem. The servers go down and then they come back 1 hour earlier or some times even 1 to 2 hours later.
AND NOW THE MOST IMPORTANT PART...... THE P2WIN AND THE VERY BIG LACK OF COMPETENCE FROM GAMEFORGE
I will be banned from the forums after this thread but who cares really???
Just wanted to finish, telling the truth about Gameforge and its p2win tactics!
Gameforge, 
please stop being shit and fix the Cash shop!
I mean, everyone knows that you guys reduce the drop rate from items for players to use the Cash shop! That is why it is way easier to gear on NA servers.
You guys are so useless, you even lack the quality to bring us a very important system like the Talent system!!!
Instead you bring us a very stupid consumable called "Combat Acceleration Potion" and make it possible for players to que with it for Battlegrounds!!
Well done, so you have the time to bring us a consumable that complitely destroys the players expirience inside bgs, but you don´t have the time to fix skill descriptons?
Two words for you Failforge: Incompetent publisher!
You guys should compare the prices from costumes on NA and EU servers :D!!
There are some costumes on NA that are like 27k gold worth in game and here they are like 300k gold!!!
300k gold for a costume with no stats great job Failforge!
And you guys fail so hard to actually bring us something good to the game! Even the brand new Hairstyles, we have to get them from the Wheel of Jackpots
I mean, is this a jk?
I could keep writing stuff, to describe how useless Failforge has been. for the last few years but there is no point.
It will never change, Failforge will always bee that little matrealistic bitch that has been for the last years.
