I've done most the translating for a lot of the federation update / raid patches and I've never seen anything about group sizes other than the standard 20man 10man stuff. I have no Idea where people are getting this 3man 7man instance stuff.

I think the numbers on the on the slide either represent a date when they'll preview slide or a day that they'll release whats on the slide. In one of the earlier GO posts they did mention they were planning to release much more content during the rainy season in Korea (June-July), so days makes much more sense to me than instance group sizes.

Because second wind is a heal?

In 2-3 months like always (we've have a few exceptions but for the most part have sticked to that). Unless as Rune said above that this might be a J-Tera only update.

Hangame as a massive company while EME is tiny.

I'm sorry but these are very much so lore appropriate. Actually most costumes can be considered lore appropriate with a few exceptions such as the whimsical weapons, etc. In Kanstria you can find a castanic in a maidish type outfit, in a few places around the world you can find elin in sailor outfits, so yeah there goes trying to say not lore appropriate when there is similar things on quite a few NPCs.

Tera is an MMO and therefore requires a good CPU and with TERAs graphics you need a mid-ranged GPU as well (which you have).

That CPU I'm going to be honest is beyond [filtered], its the worst [filtered] piece of garbage I think I've ever seen. You don't need a 3.2 GHz CPU (its recommended though) but you at least need some kind of modern mid-ranged processor (intel i5 or amd a8 / a10).

How a good GPU like that got paired to that trash called a CPU is some kind of disastrous failure of laptop building on the part of the manufacturer.

If possible I'd return it and find something with a better CPU paired to the 8750m.

I hope there's more than 1 ticket items like say: 2 ticket items, 3 ticket, or even all 4 for something awesome.

No.

At medium settings, then yes.

Tera can't use Crossfire so the A10-5800k + 6670 dual graphics is worthless. And the CPU part of the APU is a weaker version of the FX-4300 and are basically compared performance wise to i3s. The rest of your system is fine though.

For good fps at max settings then you'd need a need a new cpu (and mobo (am3+ 970 or 990fx or lga 1155 z75 or z77)) and new gpu.

You're going to be able to spend them after the Tuesday server maintenance anyways so not like it matters.

Every one has issues in BGs, a fix I've heard on the forums is to simply disable shadows and lower the draw distance in the options. Haven't tested it my self but I heard there are draw distance issues in the BG that lowering it will help.

If you're getting 10 fps in the open world (not during nexus) than I will have to call BS there.

Instance wise, as above simple disable shadows. There are a few problematic bosses as well such as the crab boss in FoK or the 3rd boss in AC that cause fps drops for no apparent reason.

Also Sorcs. Hailstorm is simply murder to the fps.

The game is rather disappointing.

-Combat: I was hoping for true non-target combat, but instead we got soft targeting homing missile extreme. Its still basically tab target but instead of a tab button you get a crosshair that 'target's what ever its over and everything is a homing missile from there. Its better then WoW certainly (not like its difficult to be better than WoW now a days), but its no TERA. Hell as said above even RaiderZ has better combat than this.

-Character models / Animations: The world itself looks rather amazing but the character models are just plain horrid, it's like their not even from the same game. It's just so damn terrible. Don't even get me started on animations, they speak for them selves.

-Classes: They did a decent job making them different from each other, but they're pretty horribly imbalanced at the moment.

The Great Weapon fighter it seems the devs either wanted it to be a dps or a tank, but instead tried to make it some weird amalgamation of them that completely fails at both rolls.

The Control Wizard and Trickster rogue are basically the ranged and melee forms of each other. High damage, High CC, etc. They are nigh immortal unless focused on by multiple enemies in PvP.

-Instances: Current bosses in this game are honestly brain dead simple. The only difficulty, challenge or strategy the bosses in this game provide is not from the bosses them selves but from how many and how quickly is summons adds. That is it. Adds. I can find more complex bosses on a SNES game.

-General Feel Opinions: Its a D&D game, but it just seems like that is in name only. It lacks a lot of race and class options that a D&D game requires, the new 4e rule set that the game takes hints from is just a complete [filtered]ization of what D&D was, and removes a lot of choice.

For example old style BGII, IWDII: characters had a a wide variety of things you could customize class wise dps clerics, tank clerics, healing clerics, tank fighters, dps fighters, ranged fighters, etc. It all depended on how you spent you stat points and how you progressed in your feats and items.

-Business model. My god this is some of the worst I have ever seen. You can spend $800 for a free ride to max level, spending $ on Zen to convert to Astral Diamonds can land you end game gear, Of course you can get Diamonds in game but be prepared to spend many many MANY months even for the simplest of items. Gold in the game is worthless.

Respecing cost Astral Diamonds, and is almost required once you reach max level to optimize you build. Even something this simple can take weeks of farming them.

Enchanting is worse than TERA. You have to collect runes (weakest) Fuse multiple ones with an extremely low success rate to create normal runes, than fuse normal runes with an even lower success rate to get the best runes. And of course PWE gives you the option to buy 100% success fuses off the cash shop / Astral Diamonds.

Doubtful to the extreme. TERAs world simply is not built for flying, it would take a pretty massive redoing of the entire world to make it flying ready. And its simply unnecessary in TERA.
