Tera: Online Random Question Thread

[Senji]

Any money you spend enchanting up your weapon (especially just using junk fodder you find) is a constant drop in the bucket to your cash reserves a few levels later.

Priest actually cuts through normal mobs pretty fast. Duoing, rounding up six at rip, +6 weapons, with those close range aoes; one quick rotation, no downtime. Use those damage glyphs, you don't need to level up holding onto an endgame raid healing build.

Guild offers/recommendations would depend on your choice of pvp or pve server. Most of us are pvp.

Priest is ok... till around Lv 50's then its like "oh my god, make the pain stop"
If you can actually find a dps to duo with though, its pretty good~ (especially a lancer+sorc combo!)

[Aleste]

So, finally dinged 60 (its my first, and a lancer at that) and honestly, I'm not really sure where to start. Ideally, I'd prefer not to suck.
[I currently wearing a reasonably cheap set of T14 body/hands/feet, and am using the free lance you get for dinging 60 in the meantime]

I've done a bit of reading into my gear choices (where its obtained and what I should be aiming for), master glyphs (and glyph builds in general), and watched a number of videos on the various dungeons that were unlocked at 60.

Although, I'm finding it rather hard to figure out where to start, specifically.. Is there some preferable (easiest) way to going about doing things at 60? Should I start farming mobs/dailies for gold to purchase T14 enchantable, or run the dungeons (assuming I don't get horrifically slain in the process) first? I imagine I should leave worrying about the master glyphs until I'm in a pretty decent set of armor, and then start learning HM runs ?

Any tips at all would be awesome; also, any idiot guides on how to go about masterworking and rerolling stats on gear would be amazing.

What is the difference between the three tiers of Panaceaic Bolsters? Duration?

[Foxer]

You have to learn dungeons, so I would start off with AC NM, since it's a 142, and people still kinda do it. That drops t13 enigmatics and T14 fodder. Once you get good, you start farming the 147s (SG/ACHM/MCNM) and you start making money off of that, assuming you have a steady farm rate.

I would just stick to Nexus/NT as much as possible, TBH, and try to collect the T14 set from there, and enchant as you go/farm.

Also, you need to seal with a masterwork scroll, and unseal with an intricate scroll (50g at vendor). You lock stats with spellbindings, 1 per tier, per lock. They start doubling after 2 locks.

Yes to the bolster question.

I have a friend in Japan that wants to play Tera on the NA servers... Does anyone know the best way to make so they can access it through the region block? I somewhat remember what I had to do to play on the JP servers myself but I don't know if those steps in reverse will work. Any guide or link to a guide would be great. Thanks.

Need a bump for this. Also, ppl who are playing from outside the US in region blocked areas, are you playing with your OS set to the language of the current country you are in? If so, did you have to change your OS to english to get this to work?

Need any help I can get with this. My friend really wants to play on US servers with us and not the JP servers. =/

A friend told me that it's easier to masterwork an item that isn't enchanted at all yet. This seems like superstition to me, but is there any truth to it?

think so, considering all my gear I mw'ed under 6 tries each at +0. But its hell enchanting later on for sure!

It is nothing but superstition; enchanting something first won't make it's chances to masterwork later any lower.

base stat * 0.03 * enchant level = bonus from just enchanting

enchanting bonus - total enchant bonus = MW bonus

MW bonus / base stat = 1, 2, or 3%

Just FYI, that equation appears to only be accurate for weapons. For armor (body, hands, and feet) it seems you need to change the 0.03 factor to 0.045

theres a MW bonus % too for armor?

You should be able to use a proxy service for that.

[Divinius]

Indeed there is.

[Eddard]

Trying to do it w/o having to pay for an additional service. I know someone on these forums currently pays like $50 a year. But was hoping to do it for free. Any proxy services that you recommend? I'll pass them on to her if she doesn't mind paying for them.

Oh, thanks!

I thought I added a line regarding armor.

[Eddard]

Nevermind just found the thread for it.

[Pyree]

Could someone explain the process of rerolling stats on a masterworked item? Do you have to use spellbinds on +10, +11, and +12 in order to keep it masterwork? Do you have to keep using master enigmatic scrolls to do it? Will rerolling it with spellbinds also change the 1%, 2%, or 3% bonus?

I'm about to start masterworking my abyss weapon so these would be good things to know. Thanks!

You need master enigmatic scrolls (rare/blue ones). Can get these from Dungeons or Trade broker (hover between 200,000-250,000g)
Need the intricate identification scrolls (uncommon/green). Can get these from any normal merchant vendor the 50,000g Scroll

Each time you use a Master Enigmatic Scroll (MES) and identify with the Intricate with. You have a small chance to get a masterwork'ed weapon/armor.
pretty much use the blue scrolls to seal > use the green scrolls to unseal. Rinse and repeat till you get a masterworked item.

Once you get a masterwork'ed item this is when the spellbinds come into play . Spellbinds lock the Random bonus stats in place. You have to use the appropriate amount of binds per lock
T14 = 14 binds for 1 stat locked.
Then after that it doubles for each so 28 spellbinds for 2 stats locked then it starts getting ridiculous each stat you wanna lock becomes double the amount of binds. Spellbinds only work on 1-9 stats. +10/11/12 are a static Power for DPS / Aggro for Lancers / Healing for priests ( lancer/healers are only on new weapons).

But for every time you re-roll by sealing/re-sealing You HAVE to keep using Master Scrolls. Otherwise you will loose your masterworks

the 1% 2% 3% bonus you see us talk about. Is each time you enchant from +1 to +12 . The attack bonus thats given in the green as (+attack / + impact) these are percentage based off the main attack (what you see in the white). It's either gonna be a 1-3% bonus, Just do the math of the formula given and you can find out what you have.

[Pyree]

Ah, I see, so if I'm understanding correctly there's no rerolling for a 3% bonus, you just get what you get.

Thanks for all the info!
