It is a big problem for a lot of folks. Sometimes when your waiting on a match and it finally pops and you hit enter now, it just all goes away and you don't get in, or half your party gets in and you don't making you have to leave the party then get the debuff....

There are a alot of folks having these issues.
We should NOT have to go through that much effort to improve frame rate issues in the game which have been around since pre-beta....

Just sayin'.
OH! that is nice to know, now everyone is included! Great! I didn't want to have to start a new account... 5 more levels to go! haha....

Thanks EME!
You obviously didn't even play the game... Playing until 19 is nothing.

Hello.
My best friend bought Tera as a birthday gift for me. He has a lvl 60 char, completely decked and is ranked very highly and really wanted to share his passion with me.
that being so i gave Tera a good try.
I thought the game was completely solo oriented, and a lvl'ing up / questing style similar to Grand Theft Auto.
I am used to MMO's where you can have parties of 8 people, go to a location, kill mobs of monsters 5 - 10 lvls higher than you and grind out EXP.
what kind of game completely discourages that, makes u just run back and forth to NPCs just for your levels? and god forbid you forget one, you have to go all the way back and do some stupid bull [filtered] mindless boring quest. and there are like THOUSANDS OF THEM.
The game also lacks a lot of dynamics in the classes / jobs people play and is also limited by the extremely small max party size being only 5 people. are you kidding me? this is an MMO.
The dungeons that i watched my friend go through required almost absolutely no strategy what so ever.
I quit Tera and ill never be back, and i cant believe people actually paid a monthly fee for it at one time.
Its really kiddy too, has a huge WoW crowd.
Everyone rides around on Unicorns.
I highly recommend you guys give the Final Fantasy XIV open beta a try, and see what a real MMO is like, and also what a real MMO's graphics existing in 2013 should look like.
anyways, i guess have fun getting all the way to lvl 60 with a grey storyline, and then spending all your time after that just to get gold to enchant your weapon 12 times. In the meantime ill be having a blast on FFXIV.
Welcome to free to play games. They are usually this bad, no matter what game your playing. However, try different servers... The communities are definitely not the same on each one. :)

The bottom line up front, is the entire game like this or only Ascension Valley?

I started playing MMOs back in 1994 with Ultima Online, it has been my favorite genre since. I passed on Tera until f2p, but loving the game and wish I would have picked it up at release, shame on me there.
Saying that, this is seriously the first MMO where I actually took time to go into the tab settings in order to turn off all global/area chat. I am being sincere here. There were times in other MMOs where these chats would get bad, but in Tera it seems like 5 minutes cannot go by without one of these chats blowing up. The newbie area chat last night was the worst I have seen in a game yet, basically if you watched a racist porn movie that would be about what was going on. This is not just in the newbie area though, I was just there playing with a alt.

The main point of this post is not to simply rant, but to ask how the other servers are. I started on the new server that I guess was made for f2p, but had no idea at the time. I am hoping this is why it is so bad but wanted to ask here before bothering to reroll or transfer to another one.
They never said monthly, they said something along the lines of random...
Doesn't do a thing. Just reminds you that you need to subscribe to elite status so you can get another useless icon on your game screen.... :)
Pretty sure they are just across the bridge from where you get the quest, in and around all of the little guys you need to kill.
You can also get it at Amazon, for a premium...

When I bought mine a month ago it was 12.99.... haha, have fun.
Here is what I have noticed playing a mystic since Beta... If you stop healing them directly, they WILL go after the healing balls... :)

Mana users generally go for the mana balls without questions, tanks, melee DPS ect expect to ''be'' healed, I think just due to other games' mechanics. They haven't bothered to learn or understand how a Mystic heals, or the fact that the healing balls also get rid of the purple bar as well making life doubly easy for both the healer and the afflicted.

So, in short, stop direct healing so much if you want them to use your motes.
