TERA Online - General Information and Discussion (May 1, 2012)

I have wanted to try that out. How many people did you have to clear the nodes in a timely manner? And how many did you bring down in an hour?

[Coren]

I already have the craft skill at 410 for my t13.

As has been mentioned before, they could easily change the enchant system to where you actually "level up" your items by sacrificing other items (and alkahests). That way everybody would know it takes (hypothetically) 30 golds and 50 alkahests to get +9. Or if you want it to cost more, make it 50 golds and 300 alkahests. Whatever. Then I'm at least progressing.

When nexus first started, we were able to clear them quickly when there weren't 800 people afk around us. I'd guess it would be easy, and lag-free, with 8 to 10 parties. It's probably doable with only 3 to 5 parties, it would just take for-fucking-ever due to the ridiculous HP of the bosses.

[Meresgi]

I wish the Nexus boss hp would scale based on how many people were around it, that way it would be better for groups to break off and tackle nexuses throughout the zone.

I think it does, but it doesn't seem optimized properly. They have a stacking buff that I can only assume is based on how many people are at that Nexus event. I generally only see it stacked to 16, which pretty much has to be the max.

edit: I've only really done Nexus with too many people or too few people. We didn't have enough to get passed wave two and didn't get a chance to see how much weaker the final wave was with that few people.

Less overall nexus credits/rep though that way overall ;/

speaking of nexus, just finished tonight's... all portals several minutes before the end (without splitting up much)

Is there a bonus for doing this or no?

We completely cleared Granarkus (10 areas, I think?) with what was mostly just our two guilds (roughly 30-40 people). It wasn't completely lagless, but the framerate was miles better than zerg areas (I had about 20fps in Granarkus compared to the zerg's usual 1-2fps).

[Gulkeeva]

Is there a bonus for doing this or no?

no, but getting all the portals with the zerg was pretty good last night, near 1,800 rep.

also speaking of frame rates, turn off shadow/limit player thing to 10, and restart tera before a nexus, and your fps will be alot higher , can also relog during a phase 3 boss fight if its going slow. I go from my 1-2 fps to about 20 for the night doing so.

Lots of bleeding subs crying on official forums/elsewhere, and Ive been lvling some insta queue tank altage recently. Literally 95% of the party members on their first char, and 1 or 2 of every pt is their first time in said instance. Quite shocked at the numbers as I expected the majority to be twinks.

Best Buy was selling the game for $8 the other day, and I herd it got sold out. Probably a whole new stack of players joining Tera

Should probably go in media, but I'm sure people are just DYING to know... just how powerful T13 MW is vs T14 MW +12's
also theirs a shandra Manaya kill video about, looks crazy in its own way... from how its tanked to the damage it does, to how super buffed the group is haha

Finalized T13/14 greatsword comparison chart with details on the special stat effects on Shandra and Iron Badge weapons:

Just curious if this might be a mistype, but I notice you don't have "increases attack speed by 8%" checked under any of the PvE/Hybrid weapons, is that true that we can't get them on those two types or is it just a typo?

Additionally, and I may have just overlooked this from the last page or two, but how do we go about making the Iron badge set? It looks like that's probably going to be what replaces the current crafted T13 Fanesteel/Dream Binding set of weapons and armor.

all the T14 shows it can all be MW'ed (this includes pvp gear thats T14)

as the image I posted earlier illustrates

you'll be replacing your T13 with T14 pretty quickly , T13 doesn't even compare >.>
(thats a T13 MW slayer sword vs T14 MW slayer sword)

[Avarice]

I realize that, but I'm asking about how to go about getting the Iron Badge weapons/armor, since it's crafted; what's it crafted with?

I was also asking about the "increases attack speed by 8%" buff that's listed on Jackyl's chart; it has a checkmark saying that it can be obtained on the PvP set, but not on any of the PvE or Hybrid sets, so I was asking about that.
