[Foxer]

lol, yup.

Seems PT EXP might have gotten fixed. Nothing on Priest though. : (

[Rulke]

With our release of Tera still months away, I usually skip reading patch notes. So much change/buff/nerf/balance etc will have happened from now to then I'm just going to play it where its at on release.

[Cichy]

I dont give a flying fuck about any PvP content, is the PvE atleast good? I was looking forward to this game

[Foxer]

Yup. Ever play Dragon Nest? It's like that, just a bit more skill based. I, personally, think it's the best grind wise and as for dungeons, I can never read what's going on but as far as difficulty goes, this is right up there in later dungeons/story.

I'm playing Tera because I think its a great PvE game. Another thing I might add is that Tera is still brand new (like a month old now) and Korean players might recieve/view games differently than we do. Best thing I can recommend a this point is keep your eye on this game, try to get in on some pre beta events, at of course, play beta when you can. You'll know then if you love or hate it. I was sold on this game before lvl 5 and that was over a year ago.

[Foxer]

Yeah, same as BGtemp here. People will tell you you can't judge games by such a short time playing it but t was a couple levels in when I was completely sold on the game myself. It was a couple levels into C9/Vindictus/XIV/Rift where I was convinced I didn't want anything to do with the game, too. That's just me though, but we're discussing TERA here so yeah.

I would look up some dungeon videos when you get a chance so you can see for yourself what PT raids are like. Politics and 15 v 15 battlegrounds opening up VERY soon so you'll get a glimpse of that soon as well. Soon to be 50-60 content coming up as well so yeah.

Also, what BGtemp said earlier kind of makes sense to people - no matter how many updates and lv.0-50 content you see being worked on, added, or patched, we're going to get a lv.60 so it's a waiting game really. As for me, I think it's still cool to keep an eye out on how the game plays and what type of content you can expect with the lv.60 cap by judging lv.50 content, and it's cool to see how often they patch and work on customer criticism and feedback.

[Trocian]

Raised the item drop rate of the bosses in the dungeon (Akasha, Sharti and Lugreva) by 2 times.

Now there's an almost 10% chance of an item dropping, wohoo!

[Foxer]

Akasha's a hoe to get to anyway. Double drops x 0 isn't cool!

[plue]

At least they fixed it rather fast. Remember how long it took SE to increase Salvage drops from 0.2 to 2%?

[Foxer]

Is that what it was? lol .2%?! But I was sitting on like 68 Enlil Gambisons(s) in a year of salvage WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[plue]

Not exact, just a number I came up with. Wouldn't be too surprised if it was representative of the initial drop rates though, I remember running some of those instances for months on end, only to have the one piece I wanted to drop the first time I wasn't there. Good times.

[Foxer]

A must watch for all the perverts that will be rolling Elin and all the perverts pretending to hate on Elin but will be rolling Elin anyway!



Posted for the AA, I swear.....

Nice......AA.

[Charismatic]

Yeah, they certainly do have some nice AA

[Lucavi]

That camera is mighty low. Must be for the AA.

[avelle]

Elin would be pretty adorable if they just wore some god damn pants.

[Foxer]

Yeah, well there is no leg armor in this game. All of the leather/plate leg armor is from the feet armor. For cloth, it's almost impossible to find actual leg armor on females.

[ChairmanMeow]

Such big thighs. :/

[Weltall]

I want this game now

Any more word on US release date?
