TERA Online from Bluehole Studio

level 20? Does it mean the new class goes through full leveling, instead of the express thing they did with reapers?

You only got a Reaper if you already had a level 40 or greater character.  Brawlers, like Gunners before them, start at level 1.

Aww man, that sucks. I only managed to get one char to 50 before the reaper, and then reaper was fast enough to get to 50 too, but ain't no way i'm doing the whole thing all over again.

[Furiously]

They have a 100% exp bonus going right now I believe. I have not done a single quest besides the storyline and I've been ahead of the level curve.

This game is my new benchmark for "we're not taking it seriously either" levelling experience. Any shred of immersion is destroyed by the maps, models, quest text, cosmetics and power-levelling veterans with fusion cannons.

Don't forget the cars!

This game is my new benchmark for "we're not taking it seriously either" levelling experience. Any shred of immersion is destroyed by the maps, models, quest text, cosmetics and power-levelling veterans with fusion cannons.

Honestly its good they did that because the zone design is fucking atrocious. Just packs of mobs that scream "I am here to be killed by you player". There's nothing living or reasonable about the world which is a shame since visually it was quite pleasant. That said if it wasn't a massive massive install and I wasn't so bandwidth limited atm I might install it to fuck about because its quite fun gameplay wise.

[Kageru]

I liked that the mob density and nearly immediate re-spawn just to let you know that killing any individual mob was truly meaningless.

If you haven't tried the new brawler class and this is still installed, you gotta try it. Auto attacks are killer if there followed by a block (that is left click, left click....right click). And they all do different things and they do them well and your building power for your specials and you have specials. Its op through the roof but its fun while it lasts. Gunner is a good dps class and wears heavy armor but brawler is through the roof. Ok I said that and its an old game and you can fault the games basis and I would understand

[Hoax]

Sadly I always liked Fem Amani the best and they aren't popular to be given access to any new class. That coupled with the 25gb install and BnS being the new shiney... RIP Tera.

Its pretty gross really the /vg/ Tera thread is now basically 100% Elin pedo shitposters instead of the old 60-80% Elin pedo shitposters. Everyone else has left for other games.

Black desert has now taken the spot for best MMO combat from Tera.

[hal1]

 In Tera. They have redone the sorcerer and it is strong. I mean lvl 10 and your feeling it. Lvl 20 and its not that hard or that long and your 2 shoting mobs. Its a lot of fun.

[hal1]

So I logged in to blade and soul in the monastery witch is a pretty heavy quest hub. Lvl 16 to 22ish. There was no one not a few but no one. So I logged to tera. And somehow I had lots  of emp ( the currency there). So I bought a char slot and bought some sexy for her to wear.  And there are people here not to the point that you can't do what you want to do but there are people here. Now can I get a group at lvl20 when i will need a group? I do not know and I will report back but if your looking for an alive MMORPG I gotta say try tera.

[Signe]

Tera is a nice looking game with horrible content, meh classes and fun combat where we can all be kittens together. 

I really did enjoy the combat. 

[hal1]

So I logged in again and started a newbie or so. And there are people here, even more so than a few years ago. Newbie island *lvl 1-12) to lvl 32 I am constantly seeing other people. So if you have the mmorpg itch The dungeon ques aren't that bad even for dps. If this is a thing you like to waste time on this is the game. And the quests have been streamlined the leveling is quicker. I qued  for BOL at 21 left at 26. Qued for SM at 27 left at 30. Just saying.

[hal1]

So Ive re-downloaded Blade and soul and Tera. And theirs more people in Tera. Blade and soul is 1 year old and giving away stuff to returning players. Anyway its happening and if you have a hankering for either game there it is but I gotta say Tera has more people.

[hal1]

OK  33 and 35 the ques don't wanna pop. But at lower levels there is a lot of activity.

I mean, this is in the graveyard so not like anyone will see it but for those of you who go back to Tera on and off again. Krafton (what was Bluehole) has shut down their NA publishing subsidiary, EnMasse Entertainment so the NA service is moving to Gameforge in early November.

If you want to have your account/characters moved over they are going to start the process for signing up to do so on Oct 22 and it goes until early December with the EME Servers going offline Nov 9 and the GF servers coming online Nov 12.

I haven't played Tera in almost a year, but still am on discord with my old guild and this popped up today:

Tera shutting down for good on June 30th, 2022

[Trippy]

RIP TERA. I had a lot of fun with it during its heyday in the West and you can clearly see the influence it had on the Korean (MMO/A)RPGs that came after it.
