Tera: Online Random Question Thread

[Meresgi]

To add to my other question, what rep should warriors be working on to start? Looking at my rep page I don't know where to start D:

[Pilfer]

As a warrior I chose to do velika for the attack speed zyrks. I am not sure if these are best bang for your buck due to lack of min/maxing knowledge but from eyeballing it(lol) I seem to get best results with as much speed as possible. Other options would be the power or c.rate zyrks.

72k rep to grind to max reputation, getting ~1k rep, each event. 6 events a week, is 6k a week, so, that's about 3 months to get the reputation, for your gear. Pretty sure you'll have all of the credits needed by that point too. I'm not certain that there are Nexus daily quests either, but if there are, that could bring the time down some.

Yummy, laggy grinding. Add in annoying GvG, and it's peanut butter jelly time.

[Meresgi]

Ugh 3 months of doing them all kind of sucks, granted it's only 6 per weekend...but I hope they add more during the weeks since even with only 6 per weekend I still end up missing 1-3.

[Leashedragon]

It seems credits cap at 6000. So.. unless you spend them on other items, you'll waste a TON until you get Revered. Once you get the rep, getting the 6k credits isn't that bad, but it's preventing you from saving up enough credits to just buy everything in one go when you hit Revered.

[Scythiroth]

Is there any way to clear the instance matching thing without remaking the party? Just a minor annoyance, but my laziness makes that bug me.

[Meresgi]

So how often do you guys get drops in CR/NT and such farming for your alts on your 60s? Been doing CR off and on for priest robes/staff, have yet to get ANY gold drops at all from there in 12 runs. SM runs always yield 1-4 gold items for me on last boss though >_<

Haven't really done any NT yet, but from CR, I'm probably under 50% on getting gold items (not counting the ring). Last boss is probably closer to under 10% lol. I swear, he never drops anything. >.>

[madpersian]

I get plenty of blue and gold drops i both NT and GL. I don't know about CR.

[Avarice]

The argon in CR does suck, but I do get drops on occasion in there; got lucky earlier today and got plate hands on my first run, and the next run gave cloth body.

[Senji]

Sometimes you get none, sometimes 4 or 5.

[Leashedragon]

CR hardly ever puts out for me. SM is better, but a lot of the time doesn't give me anything either. Although, yesterday, both put out. Bahamut gave plate gloves and Terkasia gave a mystic stick. Malgarios in SM dropped 3 gold: bow, necklace, something I can't remember.

NT I found to be nice for atleast getting some gold vendor fodder due to it being crappy non enigmatics that barely sell for anything on the AH. While clearing the trash yesterday I got 2 golds. A 42 plate chest and an enigmatic slayer sword. The orilisk boss summons put out twice in a row the first time I started farming NT. In two runs one of the adds dropped the gold enigmatic cloth body.

Anyone else experiencing increased latency since the nexus update? Annoys me to no end every time my character position snaps back every time I hit a lock-on skill.

[Meresgi]

So what is the deal with daily quest resets? Sometimes they reset 2-3 times a day for me..other times they dont reset even after a day. The Velika ones have not reset for me in a day and a half.

All dailies reset at 7pm PST.

Are mob kill credits just kinda random the entire game? I've always noticed that sometimes I just don't get credit for kills, even when the orange or yellow "!" is on the mob, but I just killed about 8 mobs for a suppression quest and didn't get any credit. If I had to guess, I only get credit for about 25% of the kills. Working as intended?

[Kaisha]

Suppression quests typically want an item off a mob, which have a 50%'ish drop-rate.

[Meresgi]

I've heard you can kill stuff for rep with factions, but where do you get these quests? Is there one for Hands of Velika? o_O

Do the nexus daily quests, you start with 2 per day at 700ish rep each, it'll make those 3 months take alot less time.

All the bosses excluding the very first, and the very last, pretty much drop near nothing (its pretty much the same if your in the same lvl range as the bosses). Pretty much feels like, their is no difference in loot depending on your lvl at all really, just the random luck chance.

no, and I've had that randomly happen before nexus updates, when running bit torrent downloads, not enough to be bothersome I think.

velika hunt , is the only faction, you can run around and kill stuff for rep, and does not require a quest. (This should be like a sticky notice, i see this asked so much by so many).
You will get rep from killing random stuff before lv 60, I got rep when first entering the zone killing mobs on the way to the town... (guessing most people don't read their chatlog saying they got rep from a kill)

From what I could tell there was no quest. I just kept getting rep while killing things in Argonea. Not sure if there is one for Hands of Velika.
