There's a merchant in the western flank of Velika, that allows you to replace this, at the cost of a few silvers or coppers. You can also buy dyes here if you wanna try a new color combination for your clothes.

Totalizator posted:Yeah i'm happy with elite, it's not nessesary to play at all but if you want to spend more time at the game it lets you be more efficient at doing it, whitch is how it should be. The Village Atlas is sooooooooo gooooooood. Also the 20 dailies instead of 10 + the rep and quest reward multiplier

You need the armor you want the looks of to say "eligible as template" then talk to the Equipment Remodeler, you can talk to a guard to find out where s/he is, then you put in first the armor you want to actually use, then the one you want the looks off. This will destroy the latter one and make the former look like it.

So I'm trying to give this game a shot. What the hell is up with downloading this game with whatever Happy Cloud is? It's just stuck at 12% and generally being an rear end in a top hat.

It's fun to compare TERAs switch to F2P with SWTORs switch to F2P. Or to compare any F2P launch with SWTORs, really.

Basically instead of making the game free and adding incentives to pay (i.e. like TERA and every other P2P-to-F2P MMO ever), they chopped the original game up and used those as the incentives. Edit: There, look at that list below me. It is breathtaking. Pierson fucked around with this message at 17:50 on Feb 25, 2013 |

My friend listed me a list a while back when he used to play. quote:SWTOR's F2P restrictions are so tight, that many players are labeling it an 'extended trial', as it allows a player to level from 1-50, but little else. For the first time in any F2P MMO I've heard of, SWTOR restricts your UI, and makes you pay money to use it. It doesn't end there. Let's list some moronic restrictions:

Do you like killing poo poo but hate tab targeting? If so you might like this game. The focus is heavily on smooth, flowing combat. I keep trying to play other mmos but Tera has ruined a lot of the older style gameplay for me.

Something that could be positive or negative is the fairly standard way you progress. Lots of kill-quests, and the storylines while pretty good and with cutscenes are generic fantasy. Imagine WoW during The Burning Crusade; a quest hub will give a bunch of quests, leading to other hubs with more quests, repeat until a new zone becomes available. Lots of go-here-and-kill-this-for-money. The main points against it are final levels turning into a grind and the fairly lethargic endgame when you get past it. The community outside of goons has a few bright spots but generally ranges from insufferable banality to extremely toxic and creepy for two main reasons that have already been talked to death.

Makes me really glad of Tera's F2P model. Hell that almost entices me to buy a few more months of subscription to Tera just to reward them for doing it right, when such an atrocious example of how to do it wrong exists in SWTOR.

The worst of it is that this is exactly the kind of bad publicity that SWTOR really didn't need to survive, considering how much money they invested into an MMO that ended up not paying back the revenue lost.

I'm coming to the conclusion that I am simply not ~hardcore~ enough for tera. As I see it, currently the big things are (in rough order of completion) grind rep to get the jewelry, grind gold to get regent, grind gold to get fraywind, grind players to get pvp credits for something (I think more jewelry) and grind SGallery and ToT for glyph badges (or grind gold for that, gold seems to work universally except for BoP faction stuff). Oh yes, and I forgot grind gold or else MES & MW Alk in order to grind RNG for a weapon and a set of pve gear and a set of pvp gear.

This is the end game. I just hit 60 today and am completely overwhelmed by wtf am I supposed to do now. I spent a fortune getting reasonable gear so I could do some dungeons since my 136ilvl wasn't going to cut it at 60. Now I am lost trying to figure out where all the daily quests are and how I can start making some of the money back that I lost. I've heard from loads of people that gold is a joke at 60 especially with elite just pop boosts and done in an hour. I am just lost atm, if there is a guide for new 60s on where to do dailies and in what order and what dungeons to start with etc I would love to look at it.

I am just lost atm, if there is a guide for new 60s on where to do dailies and in what order and what dungeons to start with etc I would love to look at it. I just did this since I dinged 60 a couple days ago. Basically daily quests depend on rep with a faction. Each area in the newer zones has its own faction. So what you should do is complete all the quests in an area that rewards reputation XP, which you'll see as a reward, until you get a quest automatically to talk to some dude in that area. At that point you talk to him and ta da you have daily quests which are noted by green exclamation points. I believe daily quests give around 40-50 gold each, rep XP, and store points and you can do 10 per day in non-elite and 20 a day if you're elite. If you're elite you get a 1 hour bonus per day to double rep reward and another to double gold reward from quests. So you can potentially make at least 1600 gold per day if you do 20 quests in an hour. As you gain more rep with the faction you get more daily quest options but you start with 2. http://tera.wikia.com/wiki/Reputation Has a good brief description. Dungeon grinding is another thing which is self explanatory I suppose but I'm with you where its kinda not obvious which ones to do.

I used to play when the endgame was nothing and now I've returned and am overwhelmed myself. The daily roadmap really isn't explained in-game at all (what faction gives what for which PVP/PVE roles? BWARGH), nor is the enhanced glyph system. It's good they added stuff, but stuff this grindy won't fly well without any meaningful explanation.

What's up with the NPCs in this game all sounding so pissed off at me? Is that a result of direct translation from the Korean, or were they not all dicks there? I mean like when I talk to a random NPC and his voice clip is an offended sounding 'Does this aid me in some way?' with such a condescending tone. But then the quest text is all 'oh hero please save my kitten!' And that crystal vendor in Lumbertown. Man, if any actual shop owner ever said 'Can I help you?' in the same tone that lady uses I would never come back to their shop again. Fake edit: All that is still better than the guy with only one voice clip though. You need my help? You need my help? You need my help? You need my help? You need my help? You need my help?

The sneering NPC attitude goes great with my total ignorance of the quest text, but I think the best examples are the literally translated popori jibes intended to remind Korean cafe gamers not to accidentally die from neglect of hunger and hygiene.

Accordingly, gear goes for 35+k, and trying to masterwork and +12 it will easily lead to a month's worth of daily for that. By the time you've got some of the gold, the better people have already been hard at work bidding up the price, I think the items 20 days ago were like 20k, so you can imagine - after all, if you can get silly gold, so can the other people buying the relatively few things and thus you need really silly gold.

Bleh! I just got tired of mystics at level 25. It was fun, but the only 2 attack spells and the rest being support and heal spells that I hardly ever use got me so bored.

Alavaria posted:You can usually do your 20 and turn them all in within 20 minutes. Yeah they desperately need a gold sink in this game. A vendor that sells poo poo like MES or master alk for gold - but only if you're elite. The main problem with the price inflation is that AH money goes to another player, who bids up something else. So it's not just the stupid amount of gold influx, it's that the only thing to spend it on keeps it in the economy.

I just came up to talk to you, jerk! And the male high elves all sound dumb, the female high elves all sound stoned, and there's that female human voice that sounds like a woman in her 60s but of course every female human in the game looks about 19 years old. The voice acting in this game is mostly terrible, is basically my point.
