Tera: Online Random Question Thread

[Gulkeeva]

PVP server still has decent amount of players.

As for dps, of course all classes will have their faults one way or another, depending on how good you are, you do the most!
Zerker highest dps, sorc 2nd
mystics are good healers (preferred when your groups good for endgame, priest for learning mode)
and lancer tanks preferred

Does the queen on NM drop white template armor similar to the bonus boss in sky garden? I know that the queen's wrath set she drops can be used as a template, but someone told me she also drops white templates and I had never heard of that before. (This person hasn't actually killed the queen, so I don't fully trust them.)

Thanks!

EDIT: Also, I tried to research this on my own without any luck on google, and the database sites don't seem to get updated anymore. Is there a database site that keeps up-to-date?

[Avarice]

No, she does not.

So I cancelled my tera account around the 2nd month of game release.

Today, I wake up to $63 monthly charges (assuming 6 months) on my account.

Account does not appear to be comprimised, just wondering if this happened to anyone else?

Can someone explain what the grey meter underneath BAM health is? Seems like an aggro meter of some sort?

Also is there any way to make that larger in game?

[Senji]

Has to do with War's Edge combo points.

You can resize the entire mob box in the UI, but not just the bottom meter.

Thanks for the answers/links guys. Does player level effect the amount or quality of dungeon drops?

[Lokus]

I believe it only matters if there is a huge level difference (5+)within the party. Otherwise you can go in solo on a job much higher level than the dungeon and still get decent drops.

Just came back to the game after a lengthy break and looking at finally finishing my lancer off the last few levels to 60. Just wondering what glyph builds people are using these days, and what gear to be aiming for as a fresh 60 since we restarted on pve server

is what i use since lancers got the DD buff and resolve. Most use mutinous crystals and favor a more DPS build

So just curious about this one. Our group is currently a Lancer, Mystic, Warrior and Sorcerer. We do just fine with pretty much everything. We were talking about alts earlier and were thinking about a Warrior Tank, Priest, Sorcerer and ???. Since I am presently the Lancer, I have never seen a warrior tank. With their high movement for BAMS, would the 4th spot say as a Slayer be ok? Or would it just be difficult to stay behind a monster? I want to roll a Slayer but I guess I could also play an Archer if that might fit the situation better. Thoughts?

[Karinastar]

Slayer would be fine. With the addition of block, when I'm tanking on Warrior I tend to tank more like a Lancer anyway to avoid moving the mob around too much. That aside, Slayer has really good mobility and I don't really have an issue staying with mobs between Dash, Headlong Rush and Backstab when I play it.

So my group is working on MCHM and I have a question to those that have done it. I've seen some videos where people avoid the debuffs completely and heal through her strong explosion after, is this the easier method? Or is it easier to take the debuffs as you're supposed to?

Also, as a sorcerer, I'm having a lot of trouble dodging the lasers reliably... anyone have any tips? By the time I see lasers charging, turn my camera to backstep sideways, and backstep, I get hit mid-air and die.

This was before a certain patch. Now it's impossible to do it that way in HM as they upped the DoT to 50% a tic or something. You must do the 3 debuff rotation. In NM it's survivable but really you should be doing rotation.

Never done it as sorc myself but: Watch for the aggro change icon above your head, play cautiously and be prepared to move when you are targetted. You should be able to tell that you are the target before she is even done turning to you.
