    That's what I thought.

    Brawlers are tanks that tank by doing damage, so they're DPS Tanks.

    Not sure how exactly we're going to meet tonight but I'd figure I'd throw my mystic's name here: Adoniel

    My sorc is Pixygirl. :razz:

    I am not sure what time I'll be available from/to yet.

    TERA last night was fun. Brawler is stupid good. Just zoom-zoom punch-punch things are dead!

    Before logging off last night, I created a Gunner and ran that through the tutorial island. Doesn't kill as fast as Brawler (yet?), but Gunner seems like it can just keep moving from mob to mob, shooting away.

    Yeah, gunners are a lot of fun. Brawlers are just broken.

    Sorc is still my favorite, at least for soloing. Less fun in a group it turns out (being able to target spells when you're playing alone is a hell of a lot easier than when the monsters are being pinballed all over the place, especially for spells with long belly-dance rountines cast times). Solo, the sorc just wrecks everything with crazy speed - my main sorc can solo a level-appropriate group dungeon faster and easier than any of my other characters, including my zerker. In a group, half the time my spells are hitting things already dead.

    I should have rolled archer for the group I think. Or gunner. Oh well. The sorc's artillery power will probably start to become more useful when we start going against BAMs and bosses.

    Anyway, did we ever decide if we are doing this on a weekly schedule, or something more informal... or what?

    I wouldn't mind making it a weekly scheduled thing and/or more informal grouping.

    Looks like I'll be splitting my game time between TERA and Fallout 4 because I'm enjoying both right now. If I'm playing TERA, I'm always up for grouping or even just chatting with people while playing solo.

    Yeah the weekly thing may be best but I'm not entirely opposed to informal. Just have to balance out my schoolwork since that comes first.

    Oh and any complaints I have about mystics? Priests are so much worse...so much worse! I thought I could do it. I can't. I almost ran out of mana fighting the Shade before the Predator (final boss) on newbie island. It's a solo only dungeon so I couldn't grab on to destroyah's big honking gun to drag me out. I was dying on the inside, no matter how cute my kitty looked. He even was Tera'd by the end, reasonable robe to a vest and no pants! Common!

    Literally just started this up last night. It seems pretty okay, but I get a solid bit of chugging sometimes, so I hope I'll be able to keep it up. Playing one of those horned dude sorcerer. Pixie'd like my guy. He has pink hair.

    More than doubled my level tonight (...from five to eleven. Whatever. It's a start!). Definitely seeing what @Pixelated Pixie means about sorcerers. Took out the boss at the end of the tutorial stuff in no time at all. Fire Pillar especially took off huge chunks of its health.

    Here's a not very good picture of my dude. Not sure if there's a way to get a better view of him or not for screens.

    I forget the exact keys cuz my hotkeys are all reconfigured but there's a hide HUD shortcut. I think it's ctrl-z, or alt-z.

    The basics if you can't browse right now.

    Island of Dawn turned into-

    Level 65 BAM hunting ground
    All-new storyline
    Daily solo and group quests
    Tier 7 and 8 rewards

    Dreadspire is back-

    Challenges 1-15 offer crafting materials for gear up to Dreadnaught (tier 8)

    A lot more but I'm not sure what and it doesn't say.

    So I just started playing this (dabbled briefly with it years ago on a trial) - it mentions some kind of new player code i can get (buddy up code?), and wanted to see if anyone could send me one? Not sure if I already invalidated myself by playing some tonight or not. Char in-game is same as forum (Bullhead).

    You have to be on Tempest Reach to use it. And I think you have to not be past level 9 or something.

    Mystic/Priest probably aren't a good representation for Tera as your first character, it's all about hitting things! Not to say you shouldn't play them but if you don't like it give, I don't know Slayer? Slayer got a ton of buffs and is on par with Gunner/Reaper in terms of DPS now. Or Brawlers the totally balanced DPS tank.

    That said leveling Mystic/Priest is super easy since you only need to be a dungeons item level to go into it since partying with randoms is fine and as a healer you don't engage in any combat and just coast through dungeons.

    Also if you send a guild invite to We Are Nice Guys and mention your forum handle you can get access to the guild bank, I can put some white inner armor and maybe a few other things in there for you.

    Triple edit- new costumes

    quad edit- I can't put inner armor in the bank but I put 500 gold in which is enough for about 10 people to get some basic white ones.

    So is that the costume that broke the camel's back?

    While the execution maybe leaves something to be desired. Seeing more costumes that are uniforms instead of swimsuits or lingerie is nice. And I like the jacket as cape look.

  • Pixelated PixiePixelated Pixie They/Them Registered User regular
    Nah, the camel's back is fine. I just think these are ugly. On the bright side, it saves me money. One the down side, it means I'm waiting another couple months for the next new one.

    And they've done a lot that aren't swimsuits or lingerie. The last set was a bunch of cute winter-themed dresses.

    Yup, that's a thing.

    I'm mostly coming of other games where I always go melee, want to try something different. Thanks for the Friend Code BTW, that Zebra mount is badass. And free.

    Solo'd Bathymsal Rise, was kinda fun. @Radiation I think I took him through this dungeon a while ago.

    Same. And slayer too probably. Heck, all the weapons for melee classes look super awesome. Except Brawler, those don't look bad, but there's no glowey energy bits on them.

    It just occurred to me... I wonder if these weapons will still have the obnoxious glowy colors from being enchanted? Because it would be super annoying to have a cool purple glowstick and it still be outlined in electric blue...

    Gloom Doom etc

    Tho you can get the stuff in game and it's mostly cosmetics it's just slower so it's not completely p2w. Going to make leveling alts with friends that don't have your tier a pain in the ass though.
