I started reading this thread and found the first couple pages to be mostly useless. The thread then degenerated into nothing but little children flaming each other for almost another 2 pages. Thankfully, it appears to have been rescued by a few reasonable, intelligent individuals in the most recent 2 pages or so.

My 2 cents will echo what a couple of others have said already. The PvP in this game is a WORK IN PROGRESS. For those who don't know what this means; Its not done yet.

There is also something that hasn't really been mentioned yet. EnMasse is the NA publisher for this game. They have unprecedented input into the content and systems that are going to be released for the NA version of this game. In other Korean based MMOs (i.e. Aion and Lineage), The NA publishers (NCSoft for these two games) are kept woefully out of the loop, and have very little input into the content that is being imported. This means that dredging up info releases from KTERA, and using google translator, is not exactly the most accurate of practices when trying to figure out what end game NATERA is going to look like.

Summation: Be patient, voice your input, and try to have some faith in the fledgling publishing company EnMasse.

I'm wondering if anyone has taken the time to point out the incorrect information in the original post.

Complain about the BG system all you want, but the truth is, the only way to get the ridiculously OP PVP gear is through BG,


Don't state incorrect information as fact.

BG Tokens can be acquired through converting Catharnach Awards, also known as those wonderful things you acquire when completing guild quests.

You know there are other things to do in mmo's than grinding gear... it is not even fun to grind for gear....


Who ever said anything about grinding gear? All I wanted to do was pvp and the gear dropped way too fast. Having 3 BGs (90% huttball as empire) got old, and don't even get me started on owPVP in Ilum that lagged to hell with every on-screen message display.

Question is, with over half of the Tera population wanting LFD and Arena/BGs - are we really going to have any owPVP a few months after launch? THAT's the question. If it ends up being a BG race for pvp gear, then you better believe it won't end up any better than SWTOR. Believe me, I'm hoping it's awesome and sucks me in for months and months ... but based on recent MMO experience...

Well the way theyre allowing OWPVP to still happen is having the bgs on timers. If you cant bg when the timers arent running, then you have to OWPVP which means it is definitely still there for people that want to pvp to just pvp and dont require a reward for doing so.

-----------------

I don't think over half the Tera population wants BGs though (preys to God). Most people are sick and tired of them and have realized from the last couple MMO's (that have failed miserably), that BG's are boring now-a-days. Anyone who disagrees is a fool. The people who want them will only be playing Tera for a little while anyway, then they will go back to WoW. If they HAVE to implement BG's put a cap on them per day. This way people will actually have to come out of town to play rather than standing in town waiting on a queue and making Chuck Norris jokes.......

Personally I hope they don't put a cap to how many bg's you can do a day/ week because sometimes you feel like that sort of competition or random pug battles, options are always a good thing.

I do think there should be a cap to the amount of rewards you can get per week from bg's, weekly instead of a daily cap to help out the weekend warriors.

I'd almost say I'm fine w/ a weekly bonuses... i.e. the first 10 wins give you double points...but you DO NOT WANT caps on these things... what you get is people logging on to do them and then not logging on until the next one... i.e. in wow when everyone logs on to arena cap monday/tuesday night and doesn't log on again until next monday/tuesday.

or non wow examples being aion... people log on to do dredgions and then log off/log onto an alt.

AKA: there will be no OWPVP.

if there is enough hate between players on the server there will be OWPvP
