If you preordered the CE, you'll be level 60 after the 2nd week of retail.

Open Beta (no wipe) - easily get to level 30.
Headstart - easily get to level 45
2 weeks after retail - most likely be 60, probably sooner since EME is making it faster to level for NA version.

Since we aren't getting battlegrounds, what will you be doing? I most likely will get my endgame orange weapon while getting from level 55 to 60, so I'll probably be farming BAMs for money and trash weapons to get my orange to +12.

For all you people who knows more, what is there to do after level 60 and all +12 gears? Do we still have guild vs guild or is that taken out until summer as well?

how about making 0-60 last longer and not try to get there so fast and maybe spend less time in the game doing other stuff outside of the game, you know like socializing with family or RL friends? I don't see what's the big whoop in getting to 60 fast as possible and purposely looking for a way to bore yourself out of the game.

Look at it like I do: The first wave of people to hit 60 will be like that of the first expedition sent to the Island of Dawn, more or less. They'll complete the content they have waiting for them at 60, cap their weapons, maybe do a little GvG or OWPvP if on a PvP server, grow tired of the game, then leave within the first month.

Then we have the second wave, those that decided to take their time and actually enjoy and/or appreciate all of the content BHS put into the game (because, despite popular belief, there is content in games outside of the level cap). This group will have the luxury of more content waiting for them as EME will likely have added more stuff in, or the BG's will have been released once they get to 60, run the instances, max their gear, etc.

Well once you've rammed your way to 60 and completely ignored the game in its entirety I suppose you can set up a bridge league.

You know, it all depends how much time you gonna spend every day playing TERA.
Love when people complain about leveling too fast, you're just playing way to much.

Hi, how do you make 0-60 last longer? CBT4 was my first time playing NA version. I made an archer and did every content that was available and was able to get to level 30 playing 8 hours on Saturday and 8 hours on Sunday. Some told me that I was actually leveling slow because I took my time to do all the quests.

My schedule suggests only on weekends since Open beta and headstart is only on weekends. At retail, I only plan on playing 2-3 hours on weekdays since I have a full time job and about 8 hours on the weekends.

...Try not playing 8 hours a day...

Though, I agree not wiping open beta is bad.

lol.....what a [edited] nerd.
