Not long to wait until patch 108 introduces lots of cool changes to TERA at the start of August! An updated list of available instances, two brand-new challenges, Mahtnan items—the next level of gear—and loads more!
New Dungeon: The Fusion Laboratory
The Fusion Laboratory will open its doors as a new instance in normal and hard modes! Take on Rogash, an enemy you should be familiar with from the Exodor plotline. Access the instance in the Verrak Fortress Depths (on Exodor) and you can pick up tons of possible items from the new gear set in reward!
At the same time, the available instances have been updated, with various challenges closing their gates and others making a reappearance, such as The Abscess and Velik’s Hold!
Mahtnan’s Gear
The new gear can be looted in the various dungeons. There are three different rarity grades (blue, gold, purple)—the more difficult the instance, the greater the changes of rarer loot!
The items can be enchanted up to +12, and if the enchantment fails, they neither drop in level nor require repairs.
One special addition are the passive effects: Each time you receive or craft an item, it gets a fixed stat matching the item and class. Search for the best item which suits your character and playing style!
There are also additional effects which can be re-rolled. You can now choose whether you want to accept the newly rolled effects, or keep the existing ones.
No effects can be applied to these items via equipment fusion either—so the randomness of options has been largely removed!
Kaia’s Soul Gear Rewards

**Total Enchantment**
* The total enchantment is the sum of the enchantment levels of the gear you have equipped. For example, if your weapon is +6, your gloves +3 and your armor and shoes both +2, your total enchantment will be 13.
* Only the gear equipped at the time of the server maintenance counts!
* The rewards build on one another, i.e. if you have a total enchantment of 36, you also get all the items from the previous levels.
* Rewards apply separately per character.

And Loads More!
Plus there’s plenty more in the patch. For example, campfires are making a return (with changes), there’s a summer character selection screen, a system for transferring gear stats, plus the LFG group search is no longer limited to your own server!
Have fun with patch 108!
