nawrot's Post History

Get better hardware, there is no hope. And its easiest to do.

TERA uses Scaleform which was made by Autodesk, if you ever saw 3ds max nad how happily it crashes, or how messy and terrible interface it has, you would give up on waiting for proper UI for TERA. Because guys that cannot make interface for their own product will never make Scaleform fast. Also there is reason for apple (and everybody) hating flash.

As to above post, Scaleform is same ui rendering engine as flash, but it does not use flash binary that you installed. It is compiled and linked in TERA game.

Yes it is possible. But if you do it, tell us how slow it was. I would like to know how long it takes such setup to zone into instance, is it 5min or more.

On serious note:
Build of Unreal Engine that tera uses was designed for consoles, it should work from usb hdd, but that does not mean you wont get kick out of instance party after they wait for you more than 5minutes.

Wow, EME, tell me why I shouldn't uninstall this POS game you and BHS are so hellbent on destroying.

You took out all the gold sinks (and then put them in the cash shop, which further compounds inflation and destruction of the economy).

Nobody can do Nexus when this patch hits.

Your game is full of elitist [filtered]s who can't just enjoy the game.

There wasn't much to do in this game to begin with, but after reading this horse[filtered] I don';t feel like playing at all now.


120 people per Nexus. You have three full zones of Nexuses. Everyone can still participate, they just have to spread out now. No more AFKing for an hour.


If you really think it's going to be that simple you're a fool.

They should have gotten rid of Nexus altogether and let us do NT straight up via queue or manual entry with no stacks.


++1 to this ^^

Nexus is boring lagfest, with zero tactics or skill involved.

Free Nexus Traverse from schedule. add some instanced (like traverse now) intro part that replaces zerg nexus.

Change current zerg nexus part into simple swap of monsters that are same diff as non nexus ones in area.
There are 2 reasons to long queues:

Lack of tanks, ie. lack of people who are willing to tank, more tanking classes will not solve this. Maybe buffing tanks would, but lancers are already op in PVE. We need to accept fact that majority does not like to play tank role, or at least not as first toon.

Because of above tanks know that they can pop in LFG chat and get party in seconds, so why to bother with Dungeon Matching, personally I almost never use it. And there is one reason for it, while using chat i can ask if group is for story quest also or fast "gogogogo" morons. Also crosserver people do not care to behave (because we will never meet again), so it is much easier to land in lame and borderline hostile company.

Recent example: guildie asked for NT run, we had lancer and 2 dps from guild, but we needed healer. Best option was to just queue, and we used it. 3rd DPS and priest flat out refused to kill few more mobs for quest. They just quit party after last boss was dead. And whole reason to be there for me (lancer) and other dps was to help guildie with quests. I had such situations multiple times, with LFG i can tell rest of group that i am for quest here, and ask if they are fine with it, but in Derp Matching Tool you just land where it derps you.

So before you act selfish during Derp Matching Tool dungeon run, think twice, there are no imediate consequences, but soon or later you will pay for it with even longer queue.

Are Lancers pretty easy to play?


They are very easy to level up outside of instances. Slower than sorc (they are masters of aoe and kitting), but with decent lance you can kill single enemies as fast as any dps. I could solo with ease many quest which were marked as 5 man and were giving me big troubles as sorc.

Inside instances its also easy up until 60lvl instances, those require decent ping and internet or you will get [filtered]slapped by bosses.

As leveling lancer follow those rules:

- always BUY best lance before you go to instance that drops it
- never go to instance while you just meet minmum level for it
- always get best possible lance, and if gold permits enchant it to +6
- if you can afford get dps increasing scroll and potions

Above rules will save you money, because you will kill things 2-3 times faster than gimped lancer.

- best single target DPS combo for leveling is: Shield Barrage > Shield barrage > Spring attack, it does more than half of mob hp in just 3 seconds. At some levels i was killing faster than spin to win zerker or sorc, because he needed time to charge it, and sorc needed that right distance. They still far superior/easier to set with AOE.
I think its about 15500 to 46500 gold per 12.99$ (depends how you count this). Now Let me explain how i got that number:

At level 60 you are doing daily quests to get reputation and rep rewards as result of it.
Normal way you can do 10 dailies per day, 50gold each, that makes 500gold.
With elite buff you can do 20 per day for 100gold reward each. So if you count in only increased rewards it makes 31*50*10=15500 extra gold from buff only. But if you count in that you can do 20 quests instead of ten it adds 31*10*100=31000 extra gold.

That sums up to 46500 from elite status which costs 12.99$.

I do not consder my work (farming dailies every day for 1 hour is basically work) doing dailies as part of equation, because i would do it anyway for reputation and rewards.

Honestly, just create a Brazilian server for all the damn BRs. Area chat in low level zones and global are starting to fill up with Brazilian nonsense.



It's against the rules, speak english or get the [filtered] out.


I would like to second the suggestion of creating a server for them. There's no reason why anyone should need to fill their block list because of this.

Anyway, it can't be very good for them to be on a server where the vast majority of people do not speak their language and are going to be aggressive toward them in some way. That can't be fun for them. They really need their own environmen


Putting up a server requieres money and time, things Eme has in a short quantity.


And there is reason why brbr's flood F2p games. They will not pay/buy enough to support their own server.

Also I meet few quite nice Brasilians, so please complain about f2p moron flood or whatever, do not generalize and call all of them brasilians. There are as many amurrika morons as brasilian ones, you got used to your own kind, while brs have their own and new ways of stupid. If you generalize in this stupid way, you are simply joining masses of morons. I still remember days after release, us population did same crap as now fresh blood does.

I pay 15 dollar just for that altas omfg I love that thing. Also the fact you can make 2k gold a day by just doing 20 daily with double gold from quest turn in.


2k? I remember getting about 120 a day from daily quests... So 20 quests would be 240, multiplied by 2... 480?

Did they like triple the daily quest rewards?


A number of quests give 40-50 gold, especially the new ones. 20x50x2 = 2k. That said you're now spending the time to do 20 dailies for that and that 2k gold will be worth a lot less with inflation that is bound to happen.

The atlas is obviously the #1 thing from the elite from my experience but that too is only 30 days and restricted to 1 character. It's supposedly also going to be available to buy in the cash shop as a perm version making it again useless.


Yes that is The problem, now you get 2k gold in one hour of labor, until now average Joe could get 200gold for one hour. Soon you still spend one hour to buy one piece of T13 junk, you just pay for it 2k instead of 200gold. This effectively forces everybody to buy those gold bonuses, or work forever. They are speeding inflation on purpose, to make us all either waste more time on gold farming or to buy it (or bonuses) in cash shop.

Elite status (besides that book) is total crap and not worth 13.99 per month.

First those bonuses it is one per day per account, they replenish, not increase by 1. So i cannot save them up when i do not play for 3 days. I will just have one of each, not 3 after 3 days. Impossible to save them for 50-60 leveling (best quest money rewards)

Then there is that :free: horse that is free advertisement for cash shop horse and while riding it you advertise it for EME.

Basically you pay 13.99 for advertising/watching advertisement of real products in cash shop.

I am cancelling it until they give me choice of bonuses. Ie. give me shop coins (or whatever it is) worth of exactly 13.99 per month, so i can spend them on stuff i like. This would be easy way for me to keep control over my cash shop spending, basically cash shop subscription.
Hopeless addicts, go outside, walk a dog, let them admins work.
For Hyenas do not aim at spot where they are, but aim where they will be. Spring Attack (that one with 3-4 thrusts) is best for it, it has quite long animation and hyena wil run into it, that makes them stop running for second or 2 so you can bash and start second spring attack.

And yes drifting bosses (so common in panda world, not fixed for 10 years now) and bosses that walk over are annoying for tanks. Esp in TERA where you have actual collision box, unlike games with pandas.
