swtdrgn's Post History

First MMO I played? Lineage 1 and The 4th Coming around 1999.
I haven't encounter any "difficult to reach" places unless it is a [5-party recommended] dungeon instance. Mobs can never catch up to my mount unless they can shoot homing missiles at me.

I didn't think the exploration was exciting...
You can pick up the quest again after abandoning it.

White Knights, looking at you and your level 11 Alt. LOL.

Not just you guys though, so dont feel to bad!


I am not going to even address this crap. GM's of guilds we are fighting don't even leave town. Even so, the owner of our GM has yet to be killed.

We submitted a ticket to the GM's for clarification on this subject.. and no issues were expressed by the GM.


Lol. Sounds like EME needs to remove safety zone and make GMs permanently on [when he/she is not] during a GvG.

It's not necessarily copying WoW, they are doing it when most people are asleep. That's why a lot of games have it at these times. I honestly can't think of a time when it was 3AM and I was angry because a game I wanted to play was unavailable at 3AM. I like sleep.

Could be worse, Vindictus used to have their maints when people were sleeping and then they randomly decided that the middle of the day on Wednesday was a good time for 4-6 hours maints. Granted Nexon doesn't care anything about its community so that doesn't surprise me.


3AM PST = 6AM EST

Although, I haven't get up at 6AM for more than 6 years ago. Still, that's only a few hours before I normally wake up.
For me, I am postponing this game because Diablo 3 will be released on the 15th, and I do not have the time to play both. If my interest for Tera Online is still there after I am done with Diablo, I will subscribe; Otherwise, I will just move on.

Tera Online did impress me. MMORPG has been the same for more than a decade, and I got bored of them long ago.

However, I do not like the idea of different channels. It reminds me of Maplestory. Having channels just make it feel less like a MMO. I guess that the channel system is implemented to lessen the load on the server. Another disappointment was the server capacity. I didn't like how EME disable character creation on VoT/Jagged Coast server. I do understand that they did this to decrease the queue time. The queue is there because their servers do not have the resources to accommodate all of the players being on at once.
As a level 40 archer, I can play it safe and fire from a safe distance when I am with a party for a PvE. This kind of playstyle is just very boring. I will just rotate between all of my DPS skills without evading any attacks.

I don't play like I described above. Even though I am a ranged class, I am right behind the tanks and the melee classes when fighting bosses or crawling dungeons. I drop my melee attacks on bosses and my traps right in front of them.

I never did any 1v1s, but I do get ganked a lot.

It is hard to find party for instances as an archer, at least for me. A lancer has a better chance of finding a party than a warrior.
