Hello, TERA fans!

There have been a lot of discussions on the Instance Matching system’s bonuses and we have been listening to your feedback closely. In response to our community’s concern, we have great news to share with you today!

We are currently working on TERA’s launch build so that it will not provide the additional bonuses when using the Instance Matching system. However, we may elect to include bonuses in the future to encourage lower level characters group more. The Instance Matching system will continue to utilize cross-server search to assist players in finding others for instance dungeons.

We will have the adjusted Instance Matching System at launch on 5/1. Thank you for sharing your feedback and thoughts with us!

Very, very interesting. Motivation for people to kick and scream on the forums until EME buys them their lollipop. Have fun kids.

Not sure removing the bonus was the best solution.

I really think that we should just keep the bonuses but make sure partially built groups can queue together as well while the tool fills in whatever gaps that group has. Example: Group of 3 queues based on the party leader adding them to the queue, as long as everybody is off of cooldown, and the tool adds the stray players to fill things out.

This way, if they have a full group, they can just enter through the dungeon finder and get the bonuses still, while a soloist is also able to use the dungeon finder tool and is encouraged to do so.

Everybody wins. Server-based group builders get bonuses and security of knowing who they're grouping with, and people are encouraged to use the dungeon finder tool otherwise.

Good change, grouping with randoms should not be rewarded, the reward is just getting a group to see the content.
