Sure hope some open world content is planned to keep up with the instanced stuff. I would hate to see this become starwars where you spend all your time in instances.


Agreed. I'm hoping they have a DLC/Expansion planned with world content. Maybe a level enhancement for PvE. Looks like they are toying with the glyphs and character customization by the sounds of these notes. I hope they revisit crafting and make it truly mean something so a true player crafted market can get up and going. Instance drops and all these "hokey" nexus additions shouldn't be where the best gear is found. The best gear should be player made imo. These instances and NEXUS's should be dropping rare ingredient items to craft this uber gear whether the gear is for PvP or PvE...that should be up to the crafter what to craft.

Eh, I've always thought the best gear should come from the hardest challenges, not just whoever can farm the most gold. That's not to say that crafters can't make things that are equal to the dungeon drops, but perhaps not better.

Anyway, this patch looks pretty cool. I'm still working on my way to 60 (got sidetracked by Diablo...), but it's nice to know there's more stuff coming for max level when I do get there.

I heard a rumor that the Korean version of this patch makes any armor's look copy-able. Does anyone know if that's true, and if it'll be in this patch?

But why a _third_ Health/Mana/X-bar? Im not certain that that is needed, nor a sensible thing do to.

Considering that the Mana and (lets call it) Defence bar will have the same behavior as now (ie the defence one will decrease with defence successes) and the Tank has then one almost useless Mana bar. The only reason I can think about is his healing skill, although adding a bar just for his rather weak health restore is ....weird.

Dunno if all this is in accordance to KTera, though I'd stick with the 2-bars system. Its proven to be effective in so many games, why change it?

The 3rd bar is a new bar warriors and lancers get to help with tanking, the korean devs said it would be use for tanking abilities like dodge and block so that as long as you have "stamina the new bar" you wont waste your mana on those abilities and dodge and stuff wont go on cooldown. They said it will regen really slow but it always regens by getting hit. So its just a useful bar for tanks to make it easier to manage abilites when tanking and still be able to use some mana for dps. This is a change for KTera its not something eme is doing themselves.

ARCHER ?


Agreed...these two classes are becoming less and less popular. There were some mentions of zerkers getting some love in ktera but haven't heard anything on the NA side.

I DO NOT want a game changing , i want only one rule set , if one class is not good for something, then leave it like that, pick up the one you think is good, but leave the things in one way so we can chose a class and not being nerfed or overpower from one day to another....

I WANT CLEAR RULES, JUST ONE GAME FINISHED NOT CHANGING ALL TIME.

The TANK is the lancer, warrior is not a tank, is a warrior that can be a mini tank or some kind of one. Also zerk can tank a little.

But THE TANK is LANCER. (shield, heavy armor, slow, strong,heal) like a paladin, like tanks always be (not in wow, but i don't like it)

If they go ahead with chars changes, i think i'll quit from this game.
