New to game yo

[Pursueth]

Downloading the game, fairly excited Loved Tera for its combat hated it for everything else, Looking for something more casual than wow and other MMOs. Was going to try the age of conan since its been remade, but it kept crashing so I said time to give this game a shot. Looking forward to it probably going to be playing melee!

I've only gotten to 30 or so in Tera so far, and I still prefer DN's combat because it feels more fluid. Thats not saying Tera is a bad game though.

Youre also in luck, warriors are pretty much the fastest class to level. It will probably take you anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes a run depending on the difficulty and area. Your exp and drop rate will be boosted by Empowerment Points (or PWR) [This is NOT fatigue!] you get 800 daily and 500 weekly. For levels 1-49, you use roughly 20~ per dungeon run. At lvl50, you will use 300 for abyss, a considerable increase, so keep this in mind if you plan on farming at cap. Fastest way to level would be to collect all quests in town, and then run whichever dungeon has the most quests for you to complete. Played right, you can earn a fourth or more of your level in just one go.

Back to classes
Warriors branch off into swordsman or mercenary
and then later into Lunar Knights(Magic Swordsman) Gladiator (Physical Swordsman)
Mercenarys evolve into a class which specializes in one weapon or another
Barbarians (Axe Mercenary) and Destroyer (Hammer Mercenary)
Your second class specialization chooses which skills you get upgraded versions of (Such as Stomp + [also known as Stomp EX]) these + or EX skills add utility and damage to an already existing skill.
Acrobat (Close range physical archer), Paladin, and soon-to-be-released-Kali are also good melee choices.

If you have any other questions feel free to add me.

[Elefyr]

Yeah, taking a break from mmos does not mean taking a break from stalking forums 8D
Should only be another couple days before i get tired of taking a break too

[Pursueth]

Sorry for lack of response, Been working alot and playing the game in quite a few different ways Solo on my archer 16 that is going down the longer ranged tree, it escapes me.. I'm tired. I believe its marksmen tree. I also have gotten my warrior to 11, before getting my cleric, Now a priest to almost level 23. I've got a roomate with a 18 warrior, going swordsman now, and my friend tinkerer going engineer is also about to be 23 with me.


Thats a jumbled mess...

I'm on server Gerrant

Characters now - 22 Priest Glowen
12 or so Warrior Mcdoobinz
16 Marks(archer) Pitseleh

Been feeling the game out My biggest concerns

Paying for respecs

Are scales easy to farm to the piont that they can compete with my urge to buy things at level cap?

Things I love

Knocking ♥♥♥♥ off walls and overall having a blast with the combat

my friend on his engineer and me on my priest have been two maning the abyss modes and its a blast because the bosses still present a good challenge and coordination. Just killed the manticore earlier and it was epic had a good time learning to jump when it was falling from the sky etc etc

I'm hoping fights like this are only the tip of the iceberg

[Pursueth]

PS Priests are dope and the class bleww me away chain lightning on a healer hell yeah

[Elefyr]

As to your concerns about paying for respecs- You get one at your first class change, and another at level 50. Nexon gives out these respecs as well (I have a couple on my characters that I dont even need to use)

Use this site http://dnarmory.com/skill-calc to calculate your skill build early on and you will never have to pay for a scroll of unlearning.

Scales are given away from certain events that are (sadly) pretty rare. Costumes only make a small bit of a difference. On your main, it might be worth droppping 20$ for. Its definetly not necessary though. I only have costumes on 2 of my 9 characters and its fine :)
The main consumables that you might want to buy with $ are Jellies and Stamps. You can buy both of these from the ingame market place as well.

Combat only gets faster as you level up. Bosses become more complex. Oh and, Chain Lightning is one of your highest dps skills as a priest. On my Inquisitor (attacky-priest) I keep mine at lvl11. Skills take damage jumps at 6 and 11.

[Pursueth]

Loving the feedback! that takes a load of my mind about the real $ market as well because I was worried that it was going to make things a real hassel.

[Elefyr]

I havnt paid a dime for DN in....8 months or so now haha. I don't think DN is p2w status, however, if you do pay...you can get a head start gold wise. Because there are alot of non$ players willing to buy jellies/stamps all the time

[Pursueth]

Also what is this mentor system all abouts?

[Elefyr]

The mentor system is where a max level (50) runs with you through dungeons and such for extra exp and no durability loss. Youll get items boxes at different lvls as well. Mentors are pretty popular for ACL (Astral Coven Labratory) because they get dimensional box keys at the end.
