    Congratulations. You wasted 1 month of your brain cells to farm basilisk daily without any boost or events when it takes 1 week now :D . I only feel pity for you though. I'm suprised a toxic person like you is not banned from the forums yet.

    I havent farmed a single basilisk except for dailies.

    Im not toxic towards you yet but eventho you have saved plenty of your braincells they appear not to be functioning properly. :cookie:

    Can just add tears to the river. After opening 100boxes 0 perma 2.0. Just three 7day ones.


    Worst part of it was finding out how crappy is the rest of the loot from it. You get Metamorphic emblems and veteran dye, along with few VG credits. If it dropped CA pots, mementos, etc. OK still gamble but at least decent fail outcome.


    This rng and partners rng are historicaly the biggest scam in the games history. There is no worse casino.


    I tried to get +40 power pet quite a few times but never got better than +19.

    Even if you use Superior lvl10 partner as food for increasing fellowship - you can get less fellowship than feeding it with Green lvl1 partner.


    Given you make 10 superior lvl10 partners as promotion food - you can have worse result than using Green lvl1 AND ofc not geeting even 20 power.


    If i didnt liked this game so much I would withdraw all my money back and let them delete my account.

    Will the event also boost adv skill points exp? Theres still many of us at lvl 70 still doing portals for adv skill points and losing braincells. Would be awesome if it would boost that too otherwise you would have to stay there regardless leveling fast if you want to max it. Especially with the upcoming adv skill scroll event from guardians.

    I farmed max lvl and max skillXP as intended without any extra-boosts or events.

    It took me months of almost daily grind to get it.


    Yet you complain about farming one or two weeks to get the same.

    I rarely care but the new website is pure garbage. Like srsly.. old page was pure awesomeness compared to this.

    So much info and such a nice game related design.

    This blue trash modern style is huge downgrade.

    If I was new player I would be attracted by the old webiste like 100times faster.

    I will hijack this thread a little and ask you guys how to safely get +40power partner?


    Ive combined 10 Rare Partners promoted them to lvl10 aswell and promoted Superior one with them. Ending up with -1 power than Ive got before with simply feeding Superior one with Green grade lvl1 which ended up at +18 power.

    So even If I promote Superior grade partner with another Superior ones Im not guaranteed getting the max. fellowship...


    Partners are such a stupid scam system and noone should care about it. Ignore this feature and never waste too much money on it.


    9 ouf ot 10 its pay to loose your money and gain absolutely nothing. Upgrading/enchanting your gear is walk in the park compared to this...


    Just get 1st good partner and never bother with it again.

    With such dedication to the game I would've expected you to feed less in BGs Tommy...

    Thanks for your input and I will use your comment to talk about a bit about the combat system.

    Im not always playing by the books. I feel like im chaotic good - sometimes playing amazing but most of the time average and sometimes playing like a scrub. If I feel like doing stupid stuff (to maybe surprise my target) I will do so.

    There is a hidden beauty of this combat system. You have some main guidelines of each classes skill combos right? These are most effective ones with high success rate etc. and some condition combos depending on a bit of rng (retal/skill resets) etc.


    But also in Tera you can do the unexpected and still be successful doing so. Thats what makes Teras PvP so special compared to PvE which feels good but there is nothing but one perfect way of doing it.


    Of course the odds of you winning a PvP encounter with such a move are lowered (or very low against skilled peeps) but its the fun the joy of combat which feels so rewarding even if you make 1 out of 10 tries and the kdr goes the way which makes You write such a comment.

    Of course I can stick to the usual everybodys routine and kill ppl same way 24/7 with high success rate.. but why? Is it fun for me? Welp its not.

    Should I master my class and abuse apex 5.8sec stun combo which kills even lancers? So much fun yeah.


    I might be bad and I might stay bad but Its MY way of having fun and now this publisher want to take it away from me...us.

    Cause who cares about pvp


    This is a pve game


    Being able to hit people should be enough tbh

    Why do you even respond when you have no interest in PvP. We dont make fun of your manly scripted skills to defeat an AI opponents aswell.


    As for topic. GF was super lazy while translating and forgot to add desc. about which EP attributes work for PvE and PvP. Had to do plenty of my own tests to figure out which attributes work in PvP and which doesnt.

    Hi friends and foes,


    It was the 4th May 2012


    I created my ingame character. I entered the online world of the new true action combat MMO TERA: The Exiled Realm of Arborea. As a seasoned mmo veteran I rushed with my friends to enjoy the endgame where the fun was. Game was brand new, we had some gameplay knowledge from Ktera, facing some trials and errors of an new online world experience, fun times. All the players at that time were stunned by the gameplay and the visuals.

    We got to the endgame. Tried and more or less enjoyed every feature/class/content available. The TERA was growing on us. As true nolifers we were taking sick days or vacations just to enjoy this amazing gameplay with friends or foes. I´ve seen real life friendships being broken by legendary Manaya (Hard). I´ve enjoyed 3fps massive Nexus GvG clashes between dozens of raids. Zulfikar and Kanstria being drowned in everyones blood. These areas were small for such battles! We were setting up alarm clocks at the night just to login and prevent enemies from taking keys in Alliance territories. Had over thousand Kelsaik nest/Labyrinth of Terror solo runs. You name it. You choose your own memorable moment of your Tera virtual life.


    Today is the 9th August 2019


    Seven years later the sole reason why we are all still playing this game is the combat system. Its lingering with us the whole time. Its still unique and there is still no alternative on the market to it. The thrill and the feel of this gameplay is the core of the game without any doubts. Whether PvE or PvP grinds your gears. But if you are a veteran player like me you cant deny the fact that this game was built on Player vs Player experience. Sure there are too many aspects we could be endlessly arguing about like classes, balancing,rng, etc. aint no time for that.


    My personal theory whats happening through the course of time:

    PvE is being dominant because with plummeting playerbase numbers the developer needs to sustain the economical damage with predictable outcomes. In other words they are certain about how long they can keep you hooked with a dungeon designs (AI is the same with little rng in it and it takes only x ammount of tries till you succeed or till its profitable for you to even run it) but PvP is driven by players will to fight. Class balance and gear disparity can be almost neglected by big enough active playerbase. Defeat of the enemy can be achieved within a single fight aswell as 10000 clashes. No matter if its duel/Bg/OwPvP/Cu. From developers point of view PvP environment is highly unpredictable thus slowly being purged as it generates only fun for players and not enough money for the makers of this game. Jokingly you can say that if we would have bought more costumes when the PvP gear was farmable without p2w we wouldnt have had such a huge goldsink(RNG) progression as of with the latest +9 PvP set.


    Shorehold may have dried up because the community kicked people trying it out, but the design of shorehold is to blame. In a BG that is smaller scale, performance of each individual matters a whole lot more. In a game where the winners are rewarded the most while losers walk away with a consolation prize, it makes sense to kick weakest links out to increase your odds on a more rewarding experience.


    Tera of the tommorow aka Tera 2020


    Early P2P build of the game was several months of excessive farming to get BiS or get close to it. More skill better gear. No skill no gear.

    Early F2P helped you to skip content for money. Not fair? Nah its standard from now on. Ok.

    First P2W era gave you option to play 500days excessively or pay 500 Euros to BiS.

    Curent P2W (pre +15 gear) era makes you spend 500 Euros and you still might get nothing from it. Maybe another 500 Euros will do it!*wink*

    You can see the tendency which is also now comming to PvE world with announced +15 non-echantment correction gear. Removal of the gear crystals to make the game available to wider audience is just another proof of it. P2W system will never change in Tera but my biggest concern is that this will drive away everyone as soon as they see through it. Thats what basicaly happend to curent PvP gear and will be soon™ implemented into PvE. You have skill and you have money yet you cant get the BiS gear.


    The server merge


    The most anticipated event of this year but it is too late coz players joining the realm wont even match the players who already left. There might be temporal influx of curious individuals but for how long. It had to be done, it was needed and thanks Velik that its comming. However the way its going to be done is very disappointing. Basicaly closure of Killian and copy pasta its accounts into Mystel. Im sure its the safest/easiest way you came up with but removing one of the foundation stones of the game which was OwPVP wont do anything good.


    TLDR

    Im typing all of this out of personal frustration but can I get answer for following three questions from Community Manager


    1) Is it possible to enable PK/GvG or both in one of the ingame channels

    2) Is it possible to rewamp and return Fraywind Canyon

    3) Is it possible to make event CU with 30v30v30v30v30v... teams?


    Bye friends and foes.

    oh no the feature the game was built around allows you to level up the quickest, what a disaster

    Character progression does not mean just leveling up.


    Your post isnt contributing to anything. Please add some facts instead of useless gibberish.


    In the past you were able to progress fast enough by doing both PvE and PvP. Period.


    Another question.


    What about Jewelry, Brooches, Relics, Halidoms, Belts, Masks?

    Do they work in Shores and where to get them? Only from PvE?

    Yes all of those are part of your gear in shore.

    Brooch for PvE (Dracoloth/quatrefoil) works only when not upgraded to the latest tier. Some DPS classes uses em for burst but as soon as you upgrade it its no longer usable.

    There is PvP brooch in BC merchant which gives you cleansing skill every 1m30sec on grade 5.


    PvP lost its balance with reaper patch so no point in bragging about it now and yes PvP is way less active due to character progression being way faster in PvE.. sadly.

    1) Even worse, sometimes you wont get a single match even in happy hours. Especially in Shore hold BG.

    2) Only EP and Skill XP perks works in BGs. Active guild buffs works only in OW and CU.

    3) PvE is needed for gold gain coz enchanting PvP gear is huge sink of it. Second best jewels mats (HO) can be obtained with BC credits fairly easily.

    4) I dont know how the new +15 gear will be compared to the curent +9 PvP. Kinda curious aswell.


    When there are happy hours you can que BGs and do daily quests or Guardian quests to avoid slacking time and run dungs outside of it.

    Before you que for Shore hold make sure you have Entropy jewel set and +6 PvP set or you will be food for the most of the folk there.

    Sell the map to the map hunters.

    Left side is highly demanded and you can go with 100-140k+ gold on it (on Mystel). To trade it you need to join buyers guild put it to their guildbank and leave guild afterwards.
