TERA release date announced.
- Thread starter cHk4
- Start date
PvP is fantastic, depends what you mean by good though.
If you role on a PvP server expect to be ganked 24/7, expect it to be hard to level this is something people refer to as not so good.
I think the PvP is fantastic, if you can withstand the initial burst of some classes you can get in to some really good fights, if you're good enough you can 1v2 people.
Great game and while gear does make a huge difference as does level if you're equal with someone else it really does come down to skill.
In terms of actual reward for world PvP there is non but there are BG at end game and you can get good gear from them.
It's the American beta this weekend not the EU one - I know a fair few of you though are playing the American one though.
This is low level PvP have a look
There are better videos out.
I could be wrong but the paid one gets you access to all the betas however the ones they send you get you in for one weekend normally. Again I could be wrong but that is how the EU one is working.
Yes it is a europe beta according to the alienware site, keys going fast act fast about 1900 left!

Played a Slayer this time round, still undecided.
Gonna try zerker and maybe lancer again come next beta.
Got to the first town outside the first city, gankfest, was so much fun.
What was I expecting so close to server shutdown tho lol.
Some Ranger and a slayer both mide 20's were hanging around decimating all us low levels, enjoyed it like, trying to evade/dodge them and trying to get one over on them when everyone tried to attack them, managed to get the ranger down but the slayer was a lot tougher.
what a pain trying to escort pigs with high levels killing everything.
So 2nd day of Weekend Beta and I have maybe 2-3 hours of open PvP.
Thats more than I saw in SWTOR from lvl 1-45 lol and I had even went looking for PvP there.
Looking very promising just need to decide on a class now and see what kind of path were gonna be taking as a guild.
Did notice it appears that you can heal from safezones tho without being PvP tagged which seems a bit odd for a MMO thats been out for so long.
As long as you have an EU and a US preorder key you should get into all Beta events AFAIK dude

Mmm the European beta dates on the EU Tera site say
Yea I'm undecided between
Warrior, Archer, Zerker and Slayer
Slayer seems like an easy class and very good PK class which I like
Zerker seems amazing but pretty much the gameplay doesn't change too much for them from level 12 to level 58 you still just use the same 2 moves, while not a bad thing I'm not sure I could handle that, in group PvP they are a must though.
Warrior - high attack speed, interrupts spells, 5 stuns... Very hard to play but they top the Korean PvP charts afaik.
Archer - seems a little bit meh and if I go slayer they will be no problem.

Says 1840 keys left when I go on the site.
I've rehosted the client patch file.
http://www.divinewind.org/tera/Tera.zip
As previously mentioedn easiest way is to just copy the client folder then copy in contents of the zip telling it to overwrite everything
Shoudl be decent speed on the server too
Does that still work mate, at work so can't test.
Warrior is my choice. Takes a while to get some nice skillls (don't get most of the stuns until much higher level) but once you have Blade Cut and Traverse things start getting really fun!
Looking forward to playing my Raccoon, with 3000 infamy, this weekend. Going to get ganked left, right and centre.
Bring it on!!!

AFAIK aye
We've all patched up the EU client for the last weekend and then repatched using the linked RAR file. Only takes a few mins to get the Tera EU folder copied and then just extract Rar and copy all to your New Tera US folder overwriting whenever it prompts.
Suppose we will only find out come the next US test tho lol
Launcher loads fine and says upto date last time I tried it
