there is a very simple solution. when you leave bg you'll get minus x amount of points, so that if you leave it will hurt your stats. right now for those stat padders, they actually prefer waiting 15 min for dropout to end than add a loss. so when you leave a bg it will count as a loss. also if youre afk and get kicked = loss. or dced and didn't reconnect in 5m or so = loss.

well, if you play an archer or Zerker you all must know this. In PvP while you are charging your skill (penetrating arrow as an example), if a sorcerer casts you paralyze, your skill doesn't reset and its completely stuck in the animation. you cannot cast any other skills, the only thing that can get you out of that bug, is being knock downed or use a bandage. and in PVP is a huge disadvantage, sure the sorc paralyzed me but if we didn't one shotted me i should be able to fight back, instead i'm stuck charging the skill which never fires, and run around like a headless chicken waiting for my death. it also happens when you're fighting with a Boss monster and suddenly the video appears and you get the animation bug. just yesterday a slayer used Backstab while i was charging, and also got the bug animation.

I'm an archer, but I've seen zerkers in instances getting bug also. so this must be a charge only skill bug.

I guess this has already been reported. if not here it is. i just wanted to see if a blue name says they're working on it. because it's really annoying when it happens, to say the least.

1. yes
2. no, when you pk someone, nothing much happens, only you need to get flagged to do so and other people see you red. and our mentality is, if its red its dead. if you pk players under 6 lvls, you start gaining infamy points.
3. no
4. pretty much everywhere, only cities and campsites are safe zones.
5. there are no arenas, we will have instanced battlegrounds though.

wow these kind of OWPVP ideas are great.

i really think that the water needs more work. the flaw that i see, is when you swim, you barely move any water at all. i would like to see more water movement after my path. i really hope that this is addressed properly in the future, right now they must be busy with launch preparations. but all TERA graphics have been over my standards, only to fail in the water.

really!? cool!... I've been waiting for this.

i don't dislike it, but it could use more features. primarily i want to change this avatar.

well for me it's more about style, i like my race to be compatible with my class. my class is archer and has been since the dawn of time, and i like to have a race that looks fast, agile and with the muscular proportions to an archer. so rolling a baraka or aman for an archer seem to me non compatible. they look better as lancers berserkers or slayers IMO, i didn't like the elin and popori class, and male humans are way too buff, they look like Conan. so i was about to roll for castanic, i liked their physique and racial skills, until i browsed their armor looks.. and hells no... running around in tights isn't my thing. so i im a high elf archer, go figure. but im really happy with it.

and well the point im trying to make, i like to play chars that im aesthetic satisfied with them. racial skills and hit boxes comes second to me, although i love to pvp, i wont let that change my preferences.

this made me smile... haha you're awesome.

i do agree with you, about loss and reward. but truthfully i don't see it happening anytime soon. almost all items are soulbound, so it's worthless to anybody else. also even if you loose exp, it will be very easy to re-obtain. l2 mechanics and gameplay got very boring for me. but as the pvp system goes it has always been my favorite. i remember dropping ant queen ring about 4 or 5 times... and baium ring. i hated that, but also made the pvp more exhilarating.

anybody who is in the pvp servers, they are there for the same reason as you. and like most of us we will find you and take revenge. i don't think that people will stay quite like carebears. game its still a in its early steps, lets play it for real this time. and then maybe in 2 o 3 months rethink your statements.

me too, not to brag or flame or whatever people do. just for myself to see how many i've killed and how many times i have been killed.

that's cool, maybe not a counter, just some sort of announcement. like a MVP badge in battlefield 3.
