This is why spending money on gear is such a waste.

such a shame they chose to separate PC & console,yes i know console is behind in patches but still, the game need tons of players and they obviously don't give a shit about fixing it
Console is in a diferent direction than PC version, its not about being behind patches, classes skills are diferent, they have diferent glyphs effects and story lore wise they have it more development (even if its just a little).
If I have to make examples on one skill, Slayer Overhand Strike cooldown time is 2 seconds and can stack up to 2 times before going to cooldown again, while on PC version it cooldown is.. around 3.5 seconds (max cdr stats) and it has chances to reset after casting the skill. There are more diferences on other skills like Overpower, Hearth Thrust, Wirldwind Strike, Knockdown Strike and more. And just like Slayer all classes have diferences on their skills and glyphs compared with PC version.
Story wise, they have a Story line quest that is a follow up from Stepstone Island, where you get to meet Anya again and this Story line will unlock quest at every 6-4 levels.
The Apex quest is even larger than the original PC version we had first. They have introduced a new NPC in the quest before meeting with Verdas and you have to complete several things before reaching the point where you meet Verdas.
To be honest there are lots of interesting things on Console version and it feels devs over there making a better work than PC devs so far.

You know what pisses me off even more? They are adding a lot of p2w mechs and lowering the difficult of an already relatively easy dungeon to a complete joke to make those buyers happy. That's straight up mobile money grab marketing strategy.
You sell stuff to player to progress faster and make the game easy so they don't feel they wasted money. Company gets money and be happy, Whales can play the game no matter how bad they are and be happy
What bothers me is... When they will fix vanguards? When will they fix lost items on main story quests? When will they fix party glitchs that wont let you leave them? When will they balance content, Solo or party, to make it worth the time spent on it? When will they fix issues mentioned every week that has been in the game since... development stage? xD
It wouldnt bother me at all these cash grab tactics if they game actually had improvements and issues fixed but each patch we get more and more issues, more and more bugs, more and more glitches and becomes less and less enjoyable.

No as far as I know.
GameForge cleint wont let you install the game inside a folder that has already files.

after patch I have done ACE and Solo Instances with 2 characters. This means 60 tries in the past 2 days and I only got 4 improved feedstock from them. If those instance were bad enought for the past 2 years now they are just a waste of time. For the ammount of coins you spend of them better use them on GV. At least if you dont get improved feedstocks you may get your hands on something more useful than a handful of skill advanced scrolls, like Tier 4 etchings for gear or Tier 2 etchings for Accesries.
Oh, and GG droping Scout gear and Ethereal materials... isnt this a premium dungeon for GameForge? What a joke.
Something even more dumb are the contents on the ACE medal shop or Island of Dawn token shop, between other token shops. I dont know what devs have in their heads but sure a brain is not the case. How they cant get in their minds that Glyphs in those token shops are meaningless when you get all your glyphs handed at level 65 when you claim your Kaia gear and you get again enought glyph tokens for that from your Apex quest...
TERA dev team just should be fired and get a new group of devs, TERA is in a mess not only at end game but in all content right now.
-
I aggree that improved feedstocks should dropp more often. But Sweet.Shiro.Neko in which universe is kaia gear harder to upgrade than new gear? Have you played the content and farmed your mats from hardmode?
If you cant see the issue then you dont even try to understand this.
There is an huge disadvantage from a system that will downgrade your gear vs a system that wont downgrade it. This is realistic and many players werent able to reach +15 on Kaia even when the enchantment event doubled your chances.
New Kaia Soul "garantues" you to reach max enchantment level at some point while you could be stuck in Kaia below +15 forever.
-
The only way to fix the current gear progression issue with Kaia is removing the downgrade from it.
Its a joke that Kaia becomes harder to max than new BiS gear.
-
The only way to complete the story line quests while leveling is doing the Solo dungeon.
There is no other way around but still you can get inside the 3-man version, even if the story line quest wont get any progress.

After playing on Mystel and Velika and comparing it with Console population... probably 3 or more times the active player base than PC has.
Just active the Cross-Platform option, that way you will be able to play with PS players too. Otherwise Xbox player base is kinda low by itself.
Btw, I recommend you to join their discord server https://discord.gg/teraconsole there you could get your questions answered by active players and Console staff.

A symphtom when a game is no longer profitable because subscritions and cosmetics are not selling enought is making the game blatantly p2w.
Often this is made when the game has no ways to be saved and publisher/devs will try to milk away money from players with gear progression cash shop before closing their servers.
I do not get why important materials can't be group loot? Whats the problem Gameforge? How hard can it be, to make the new items drop for everyone in the party. Why can it be, that you clear a dungeon and get nothing from it, what's the point of that? Why is everything - even the dungeon loot - RNG?
Also, can you fix your freaking Instance Matching?! Why do you release such bulls***?
I guess this is one one the most important reasons why people keep leaving the game (besides with whatever personal reason others wanna put above it).
It is true that its ridiculous that rewards from a dungeon should be "rng" then these rewards are not equal for each party member, not even about their individual performance, they are "random" too.
So, one of the most discouraging things in this game that has dwindle the player base over the years has been that and devs just keep ignoring it.... |-| oh, but well, why should they change it when they just can simply make it full p2w for those people annoyed of the rng drops <- I guess this how they think and if they actually thinks like that no wonder why TERA for PC is in this sorry state.

No its not posible.
TERA for Console is on another diferent path than Pc version, they have a diferent gear and accesories, a diferent gear progresion, diferent level cap, diferences with glyphs and skill effects, and the list continues with lots of diferences that involves all related to level 70 patchs and more things.
I have both Xbox One and Series X and both PS4 and PS5, those are then only cross platforms you can get (Xbox/PS)
To be honest even the Story Line quests have some diferences like at level 23 you get Red Quest for Velik's Challenges and you will get more of them every 6-4 levels, a follow up from Stepstone Island story line. Then at level 65 when you reach item level 439 you can do your Apex quest that has a better developed story line with the introduction of another NPC before Verdas appears. With all the changes it has is like a whole diferent game, to be honest better designed than PC version.

So I couldn't figure out how to transfer my account before the transfer to gameforge so I decided to go ahead and create a new character. I noticed that this game is cross-platform play now, so I thought I would be able to play with someone else who was playing on PS4. So first of all when playing TERA on PS4 there is only ONE server option: NA (North America). Now when I play on PC There are 5 choices not ONE of which is NA! What happened to the NA server for PC? And when I play on PC there is nothing that "pops up" asking me if I want to enable cross-play, and there is Nowhere in any menus to enact it. Is there just no NA server for PC now? And if so, does that mean that the cross-platform play does not apply to PC players? And if not, How do I cross-play on PC with someone else playing on a PS4? Please help. And thank you in advance.
The only Cross-Platform you have on Console is between PS and Xbox.
If you cant see NA servers on PC version is because you are loged into EU region (kinda obvious) and you need to change it from the GameForge Launcher options
If you are playing throught Steam it should let you chose the region once after you click on Play button

CU is a mass guild vs guild contest. Is about man power and strategy where gear, pc specs and internet is part of your guild man power.
Guild Masters and their officers spend their time polishing their skills and raid coordination and make alliances in other guilds to secure their rankings in that event. I dont see anything wrong with that and if you think that is an issue then you must acknowlege first that is a comunity issue rather than a game system issue.
Why would you limit the amount of members taking part on CU to a 20 when guilds can have 135 guild members? Are you saying is fair to not share the glory and spoils of war with all your guild members?
I know Civil Unrest is not the best guild vs guild content TERA has had but if you make that kind of restrictions then people could be more annoyed because there wont be any content to show up man power and get rewards from it.

foxyfun613 I recomend you to get in touch with Melione on PMs. He has been helpful with several guild mates and friends about other issues, even if he is not from support he has tried to pass feedback between them and players the best he can.
Just keep in mind he is a Community Manager and fixing your issue is not on his hands.

Hello,
this is an unusual issue you are facing there. Correct me if I am wrong, but when you registered an account in the support system you still had an issue logging in, and even after you reset the password it won't let you through? Could you send me a printscreen of the error in a PM, please?
He doesnt get an error. Once he clicks on login button all the entered info went blank. And this goes on even after reseting his password several times.
Something like this
It doesnt matter how many times you try, you type everything right but after clicking login you get all the filled info removed and no error message.

If someone wonders how bad BHS handles PC TERA you only need to ask any NA player. They almost killed TERA NA in the past 2 years.

I just noticed there's a stamina system will I have to play more than one character if I have a lot of time?
I play healer so I need group content
If you play the game casually (something like 2-3 hours a day) then this coin system should not be an big issue. The coin system is a little bit better than what we used to have before, with its owns cons tho, however if you are planning on playing the game more hours per day then it will become something you may get annoyed. For this is good to know which content you can run with Adventure Coin system and which content doesnt need it. Most dungeons, solo or party, will need a certain amount of them while battlegrounds (pvp content) wont need them at all. We have few open world content like Guardian Legion missions, Fishing, World Bosses hunt and other almost irrelevant stuff.
To sumarize:
1.- By game design you probably will need two or more characters but thats up to you.
2.- Healers and Tanks are always on demand so you may have an advantage there as dps population is huge compared to them.

Agree with OP.

Tikat isn't exclusively from swiping money, that's the main issue here. It's basicly what you may recall being "federation bill" store in NA years ago (which got merged with Fashion Coupon for us, meanwhile Gameforge made Tikat store apparently). You used to get 5 federation bill daily (250 Tikat in this very situation). Spicing it up would be nice, I agree to that, but Tikat can be purchased easily on broker (due to the wheel most likely) but is probly part of some event rewards at some point (would be my guess) + the 250 daily (if you don't forget it in the Tera store).
The 250 daily is from TERA Club (cash shop item) and the rest comes from cash shop stuff like the Wheel...
Let me know where you can get Tikats that doesnt "involves" cash shop at all from its "real" source.

Yep! Of course, I'm passing along your concerns and suggestions. What do you have in mind? Obviously stopping the auto-looting, but do you all have any other suggestions to make Wintera more fair and enjoyable? If so, I'll pass those along too.

Banning accounts from cheaters.
Tag their accounts for being wiped from the game to give time to save a posible false-positive. And get rid permanently from those accounts that were banned after that time frame while you keep their mails blacklisted. Its really dumb that you keep banned accounts untouched and everytime there is a server merge or change of publishers those cheaters get back their accounts as if nothing has happened.
