I am. I'm leveling alts, taking it real slow, and my highest is still only 57.

I'm in no rush to hit endgame, and I'm hoping against hope that before I start even TRYING the endgame that EME will fix the whole thing.

I love Tera. I love this combat system so much I want to take it behind the bleachers and make sweet love to it, but I bid RNG progression farewell when I left Aion.

I'm sorry, but I just can't get behind a system where the best Tera player in the world and the worst Tera player in the world have the same chance of success. That's like video game communism. There, I said it: Tera's enchanting is communism.

So I'm waiting and hoping that EME will surprise us with a revised enchanting system and some improved endgame systems. I have a few friends who are waiting to hear what endgame is like and I'm afraid to tell them.

Again, love the combat in this game to death, but the "Too bad, roll the dice again!" progression method just doesn't appeal to me.

PS. How to fix enchanting:

-Have endgame dungeons/level 60 world BAMs drop soulbound tokens (like the ones already in the game).

-Let players spend X tokens and X,000 gold on guaranteed alkahest powders (also soulbound) that guaranteed an enchant.

After all, is it better to have players...

A) Finish all of the content and max out their gear, causing them to quit until more content is added?

or

B) Get fed up with the RNG enchanting system, causing them to quit the game, vowing never to return?

You can only go so slow before you get bored. All of my alts will show you this. Level 60 is what you make of it.

Where do you people come up with this crap? Stop filling the forums with garbage nonsense.

Kettle, pot. Pot, kettle.

the combat and how it varies between classes has my highest character at 50. i am playing alts more than i usually do in this game.

maybe its jsut me but PVE gets dull and this type system makes it even worse so PVP is where this game has its potential.

I don't have a "Main" character either. I'm leveling 7 toons, with 1 more on fantasy island in reserve. All my others are around 40 +/- with the highest at 47. I too had the impression that end game was not worth rushing. But even then I still find myself completly bored most of the time. PvE just really gets old in this game because it's near impossible to find someone in the same quest chain as yourself. And although the dungeons are fun, the dungeon finder and only having 1 class as a tank was just a Total fail idea.

I'd like to say that the game is great, and some aspects of it are. But where it fails, it does it big time.

Will battlegrounds save the game. . . we can only hope. But seeing the RNG mentality of the designers repeated over and over again. I have serious doubts about it's future.

planteside in a fantasy setting that where this game has its market. in my opinion. If it tries to compete in a PVE setting i thin it will fail. It should take what sets it apart and makes the replay fun and corner that player base.

to bad up to date those two markets have been polar opposites. Are there enough FPS gamers interested in a fantasy setting RPG?

PvP is the only thing this game has going for it to me that is fun after the 10000th time. PvP is the only thing I can even see people motivated for in this game. I have no idea how people want to gear up to gear up to gear up to PvE to gear up more and do nothing with it but use it to gear up even more.

Meanwhile, us roleplayers over on Celestial Hills server are having a blast.
