Optimization Scrolls

Hi

What do Optimization scrolls actually do. I have 460 of these things and I get them every day. It says nothing on the tool tip as to what they actually do. Just says Optimize my skills... but how and what. All help appreciated.

Have u reached Lvl 66 yet?

They're useless before that.

You should keep them, tho

I'm just about to hit Level 68 and I have like two advanced skills to level with scrolls that are useless to me. And since getting to 67 and doing the daily stuff all I get are these oprimazation scrolls which don't say anything about what they do.

What are they for ? And how are they used ?

Update: I couldn't find anything on Google about these things and no response here and I so need the bank space so Its safe to throw them away. Obviously nothing of use as there is nothing described in game or even here.

OK problem solved.

Makyu there should be a special section in this forum just for your posts because they are all so amusing to read!

Glad you find them amusing. What I find more amusing is that there is so little on the web about levels 65 to 70 and I literally bumble along each and every day trying to work stuff out. Here are a few to amuse you further:

I get items drop, of varying type each and every day but they are for enchanting I guess. I have so many different types. Just litter the bank so I have to throw them away. I have been playing since May 2013 and had a very large amount of characters at one time. When they merged I had to delete half my chars.

Come this time around and I decided I wanted to empty the temporary bank. So I relunctantly sold lots of my stuff. BUT all the weapons and stuff for the gunner I deleted along with a number of other characters will not let me delete from the bank. So have all this stuff that I cannot delete.

I then sold all my collected items but with six other Level 65 chars sharing the bank I am full. So I am trying to work out what to keep and what to throw away.

I cannot enchant anything cus I have no gold. I don't make any gold. No gold drops from daily quests. I get a modest amount from say relics I sell and infusion items and 500 from fishing and thats it. But the literal thousands I need to just lift an item by one is beyond me. So I don't bother. But still I have banks full of stuff I collect every day. Endless scrolls etc

So today after I had again been struggling as a Mystic doing the quests and completing them all as I do, I was again gifted these optimization scrolls. And they do not anywhere say what they do. I go on Google and nothing. And I come here, but the forum is pretty dead. I still have no idea what they do so I threw them away.

I actually enjoy Tera but I only play MMOs on my own. I have been in the new zone in Warcraft all night with one of my Level 120s. I do do dungeons in Warcraft but hate them. Other players just annoy the pants out of me. Always moaning, grumbling and do the most annoying of things. I prefer playing on my own as I do in Guild Wars, B&S and Archeage.

Shame there isn't an ingame help and a more active YouTube videos for current mystic rotations. But hey... I play hours each day and do things my way. Aint pretty but I get by. Nearly 68 now and then no doubt the trudge to 69. Onward.

Levelling doesn't make any difference any way. I never get any stronger. So matters not in the end. In future if I don't know what it is I'm gonna throw it away. Much easier.

Either you ignored my answer in the other thread where you asked about the other scrolls and/or you have the memory of a gold fish. Anyways here my answer from back then that still applies with the relevant part highlighted in bold

And still in Tera you earn money by doing what you are supposed to do: Clear dungeons in a party and as mystic be the healer/support for your party. You are playing an MMO skipping the multiplayer part.

But you see I was able to kill stuff until Level 65. I had never any issue killing stuff till Level 65. I had an excellent rotation using my Smite and Blast and careful dodge using my Jaunt and working of the Thrall. The game did use to be a skill based targeting game where I could dodge and weave and literally kill whole fields of mobs. I was able to do dungeons on my own and had cleared all but the very last one prior to levelling 60 to 65. And again 60 to 65 was easy.

I chose the class because its the closest I could get to Justicar or say Mage, though less the mage. More the offensive priest. It involves using the Prot, dotting getting in close, knowing when to jump and adjust the position. Checking the Prots health and making sure I heal in good time. But getting the best side of the mob or mobs and then hitting them hard . Worked and gave me no reason to give up on the Mystic.

And then I hit 65 and the first time I went into battle... Smite and Blast no longer worked. What I was given were four basic skills that were RNG nonsense that is totally out of my control. I get augment my thralls... which only blessing is the instant on the Prot, but he doesn't last ten seconds and wont attack flying stuff like butterflies. Next I get the Wrath on a 1.20 cool down that has a mind of its own and does the most bonkers things. The exploding mana and health balls... like that is skill based. And the worst the doom bouncy castle that only does a good amount of damage on the final blast. All thes things need a tank to hold the mobs and I do not have one now. I play tank.

So I now I wait 1.20 or 8 minutes, target the mobs, dot, wait till on me after launching the Prot. Lock and hold, fire up the Wrath and or Doom on 7m stick up a warding and then just try with blast and smite but without auras as the burn my mana and then use my character as a tank to take damage to try and stop the mobs leaving the circle. If all goes well I will have killed the mobs in seconds and I can then retire and wait again for 1.2 minutes and rinse and repeat. If it fails as it often does I just get out of there and come back later. I have no other skill based targetable attacks.

And I know Mystic is a support based healer. Not interested. I can just about do stuff as a solo now but its tediously annoying.

Scrolls only improve healing based skills, which I just don't ever use. So that is why I throw them all away. My gripe is that this content 65 to 70 has no real content that allows you to level using story based content like in any other MMO. You are forced to do dungeons cus there aint nothing else. Or do the 3% per day daily quests and get use to 30 days a level. That's fine. I just play other stuff when I'm done. It's no biggy. Just a shame the game destroyed the targetable skill based Mystic that I loved and gave me the bouncy catle to play with. I get by.

Finally I don't actually need gold cus I don't enchant cus I don't need the gear and I don't need the scrolls. Its a simple process of levelling with what I got and making do. I log all my activity and simply try each day to improve on my score from the previous day doing the daily quests. The score is the percentage XP gain for the day. Yesterday it was 3.96% and the day before 3.73 and before that 3.61. That is the only figure that matters. I create my own rules in games and my own targets. Always have. In 4.75 days I will be 68. I guarantee, and then I'll start again. Simple maths. I play my Tera with a character that is best placed to heal and damage deal to get thro the XP to cap solo.

I play solo. Always have. Always will. Anyway I'm off to Nazjatar now with my 120 mage and silver tabby cat to jump jelly fish eveidently in WoW. I think we are in maint here on Tera. Man is Warcraft junk these days. But hey just a game. I do have a gold-fish pet in WoW... So funny. I love gaming.
