  • About Weapon/Armor Feedstock

    You can farm world-/elite bosses on Exodor. They have specific spawn locations and depending on which boss you killed, they'll drop a weapon, boots, gloves or armour chest including one(!?) guaranteed piece of feedstock and an rng item: either more feedstock or a green/blue/orange item (once again, depending on the kind of chest you looted). 😊

  • Eindruck über aktuellen Patch: Fazit nach 5 Tagen (Failpatch!!)

    Den Patch gibt es doch mittlerweile seit einer knappen Woche. Und niemand beschwert sich darüber, nach einem Tag noch nicht BiS zu sein. Auch möchte niemand +15 Rollen. Dafuq - woher nimmst du denn solche Aussagen!? :D


    Es geht doch einfach darum, dass man in einem angemessenen Zeitraum eine angemessene Belohnung bekommt. Und wenn ich hier lese, dass in 40 Runs 6 goldene Items gedroppt sind, dann läuft doch was falsch. Und da hört der Spaß ja nicht auf! Goldenes Item droppt - ja schön und gut, aber ist es auch die richtige Version? Sind überhaupt Rolls drauf? Sind die Rolls gut oder kompletter Crap?

    Jetzt stell dir mal vor, du läufst 40x den neuen Dungeon - und das ist ganz objektiv 'ne ganz schöne Hausnummer - ein goldener Bogen droppt und voilà: magische Verstärkung drauf. Also jeder, der das ohne Frust hinnehmen kann, sollte seine Frustrationstoleranz sinnvoller einsetzen, als in TERA - vielleicht irgendwas mit Kindern machen oder so.


    Du schreibst, der Patch sei solala, aber wenigstens habe man die ganze Zeit was zu tun, auch wenn das langweilig sei.

    Kann das das Ziel eines Spiels sein? Und viel wichtiger: kann das ein Ziel sein, dass du verfolgen möchtest?


    Für gewöhnlich galt bei vielen MMOs immer eine Gleichung: du spielst viel, du kriegst viel. Gleichermaßen: du spielst wenig, du kriegst wenig.

    Mittlerweile verschiebt sich das aber dahingehend, dass die Spieler, die viel Spielen und mittlerweile 50+ Runs in der neuen Ini haben, halt nichts rauskriegen. Und das kann's halt einfach nicht sein. :P


    Ich verstehe nicht, wie es so schwer sei kann, die Gear-Acquisition so anzupassen, dass man in jedem Fall irgendetwas davon hat, zig-Male irgendwelche Spielinhalte absolviert zu haben und nicht immer wieder das Gefühl vermittelt bekommt, dass stundenlanges Spielen unbelohnt bleibt. Beispielsweise ein Token, mit dem man sich Rüstungs- oder Waffentruhen bei den neuen Rufhändlern ziehen kann. Oder dass man diese Kisten für X Rufmünzen kaufen kann. Vielleicht in verschiedenen Seltenheitsgraden - was weiß ich. Das kann ja auch gerne random sein! Aber so hätte man wenigstens ein realistisches Ziel, auf das man hinarbeiten kann.


    Bezüglich des Cash-Shops und dem Verhältnis von Cashing und Mats, die man selbst farmt (Dailies, Grinding, ...) will ich gar nicht groß anfangen. Es ist selbsterklärend, dass hier etwas gewaltig nicht stimmt.


    Ich weiß, dass Gameforge's Einfluss darauf ungemein limitiert ist und dass es ziemlich schwer ist, Druck auf Bluehole/KRAFTON auszuüben. Aber bitte, falls ihr da irgendwelche Möglichkeiten habt, dann nehmt sie wahr.

  • About 2.0s

    Chances of getting a 2.0 mount are sure higher than getting a 40 power pet; however, since there will be new pets ingame providing magical or physical amplifying, I don't see a point in further comparing 2.0 mounts to pets. Furthermore, those two things are barely comparable imo: as for damage amplifying mounts, you either have a 1.5 or a 2.0 and that's it. As for pets - and I'm sure we'll agree on that - you'd be satisfied with a pet giving anything above 30 to 35 power. At least, that's what I'd be satisfied with.


    Indeed, with the upcoming patch and less crit multiplier (correct me if I'm wrong), 2.0 mounts become even more valuable.

    I still can't think of any solid reason why they wouldn't make it so that players can buy a 2.0 mount directly from the shop. I am pretty sure that a vast amount of players who don't even think about getting a 2.0 mount yet would consider buying one.

    Unfortunately, discourses like this one have never been about how to please your customer, but how to maximise profit - and that's undoubtedly fine for a company. However, don't be surprised if those customers turn their backs on you then.


    PS/tl;dr: still waiting for loot/surprise boxes and the wheel of fortune to finally get banned.

  • 3rd party agreement in Tera

    It would be incredibly interesting to see what TERA would look like if there weren't any 3rd party programs tolerated or involved because - as a matter of fact - TERA Proxy has left a huge impact on how (both literally and figuratively) TERA looks right now.

    Removing Spell Effects from other players, minimise UI, making your DMG become transparent, even the DPS-Meter inside the training area - all of these changes to the game have been officially implemented because of TERA Proxy and because of EME communicating closely with Proxy developers and forwarding their results to Bluehole. In this case, it's fair to say that we've gotten at least something good out of that.


    On the other hand, though, there's cheaters, fishing bots, scripts and what not shenanigans which have found their way into everyday TERA. Those things are unacceptable to me as they not only directly affect the game and it's economy itself but also other players' experience which, at least to some degree, is also the case with a DPS meter once players start bashing you for not dealing their desired damage. However, this DPS meter has been tolerated for years now since it's become an integral part of what constitutes one, if not the biggest part of TERA, namely competition. Although it's always a question about what you make of something, I have yet to cross a MMO which is so insatiably focused on how one's or others' performances are - it's almost unbearable. But apparently, that's what the majority of the community wants, otherwise moongourd would've been taken down a very long time ago.


    To summarise whatever illogical nonsense I might have written down: I'm not a fan of a black-and-white mindset because TERA Proxy has provided TERA non-Proxy with a lot of useful tools and ideas which are officially part of TERA as it is being played now. However, all sorts of bots or automatic scripts which enable players to achieve what otherwise could only be achieved by playing actively should be banned immediately.


    Cheers!

  • About 2.0s

    As a matter of fact, acquiring a 2.0 via TT is nothing but mere gambling.

    Hopefully, they'll get banned in the EU pretty soon. I'd rather pay a set price of TT than playing this stupid gambling game.

  • Next League of levelers

    No.


    Firstly, this is TERA EU. Enmasse publishes mainly in the US, so Enmasse's events have nothing to do with what Gameforge does.

    Secondly, once you reach lvl 65, you'll be automatically accepting quests, providing you with gear and gear enchantments to upgrade your Equipment to Frostmetal 0+ overall and Frostmetal Weapon +4 specifically if I'm not completely mistaken.

  • Tera Spielerzahlen? Zukunft

    Ich glaube auch weniger, dass TERA in allzu naher Zukunft abgeschalten wird, würde es in Bezug zur Spielerzahl jedoch nicht in einen Topf mit WoW werfen.

    Solange es genügend zahlungswillige Spieler gibt und Gameforge keine roten Zahlen schreibt, bin ich mir relativ sicher, dass TERA noch einige Zeit online sein wird, zumal es in der letzten Zeit ja auch wirklich im Vergleich zu den letzten Jahren an Content zugelegt hat.

  • Termination Code 2 after patch.

    Quote from tygurius

    Still stuck after the 2 splash screen tera stop to work, since yesterday after the maintenance, the main problem is they don't give 1 single infos about the resolution of this bug just 'we kno we're working on it". COol but ppl like me who didn't get a char are screwed to get some reward like others say. What about the compensation ?

    Welp... Unless the classic server was the only server available, I don't think any of us is entitled to a compensation.

    And about the reward: except for those server-first rewards which are fairly absurd, I think we can still get all the rewards announced, can't we?

  • Termination Code 2 after patch.

    I'm really interested in knowing what's causing all these crashes because there seem to be so many points and scenarios to begin with...


    1. People couldn't log in before maintenance and can't login after maintenance.


    1.1. People could log in before maintenant, can't login after maintenance.


    2. People can't login with their main account, but can login with an alt.


    2.2. People can't login with their main account and can't login with a newly registered account.


    3. People can login after declaring TERA Classic as an exception in antivirus/as to be started as admin/...


    There seem to be so many random things and I'd personally enjoy to know what causes all these problems. :crazy:

  • Classic Launcher

    Ja, an sowas ähnliches habe ich auch schon gedacht. Witzig ist jedoch auch, dass ich mit einem komplett neuen Account ebenfalls nicht ins Game komme. Gleicher Fehler: bei der Serverauswahl kommt der CTD, manchmal mit Termination 2 Error, manchmal ohne.
