I guess the only purpose of it for me is to have it at level 1 and to have a flaming horse for Halloween.

The Oblivion horse armor was only $3 though and the community still revolted. This is so blatant its actually sad, EME clearly doesn't give a fuck anymore.

Wheeee, finally got back to TERA : D
I started a zerker. He's lvl 12 now. I'm so not used to playing dps. My main and alt are Mystic and Priest. LOL
Zerker is fun, though. ...... so far.

Can't you do that with the Vanarch Horse also?
Yes.

WoW has 10 million players. To put it as crudely as possible, WoW can get away with shit because WoW is WoW. If your struggling MMO does the same thing as WoW and tries to justify it by saying WoW does it, you are just committing suicide. Or going F2P. Tera might go F2P in Korea in a matter of months if moving up the QoA2 update, itself a desperate attempt to stave off Blade & Soul, doesn't bring players back to K-Tera.

I hope we get Queen of the Argon Part 2 and all the other promised updates by August 28th...
I know a lot of TERA players dislike Guild Wars 2 but you can't deny that it will have a negative impact on TERA's user base if we don't get any new content soon.

Are people buying?
That's terrible. So it would be almost 40 bucks for a weapon selling scrolls. :I
New patch coming tomorrow:
Patch 17.32.02
Cool New Stuff
Bugs Squashed
Miscellaneous Changes
Zones
Patch 17.32.02
Cool New Stuff
- Guild vs. Guild (GvG) competition has been added to the political system. And you thought politics was cutthroat before...
- Would-be vanarchs select either “Voting” or “GvG Competition” when they register as candidates. Two provinces on each continent have been reserved for vanarch GvG and up to 50 guilds can register.
- When the competition phase begins, the guilds of candidates who selected GvG enter a modified GvG battle with the other guilds on that continent that also have candidates who chose GvG.
- The vanarch GvG battles last one week. Only kills scored on characters level 40 and up count, and the points a guild can earn from defeating a specific other guild has been capped.
- Players in candidate guilds can check their current vanarch GvG points, but not the point totals of their competitors.
- The two guilds with the most points on each continent get to rule.
- The warrior class can now choose to be offense or defense in the instance dungeon matching system.
- Warriors who choose defense automatically receive a buff when entering the dungeon.
- 30 percent decrease in damage received.
- 40 percent increase in aggro acquired.
- 70 percent increase in endurance.
- Warriors who choose defense automatically receive a buff when entering the dungeon.
Bugs Squashed
- Fixed broken text links in some quests.
- Fixed where in the game clocks appeared twice.
- Fixed bug where trial accounts cannot block other characters.
- Fixed spacing bug in guild window.
- Fixed links to Pururu’s puppy in the daily quest.
- Cleaned up some wording in Balder’s Temple to make the fights and instance flow clearer.
- Cleaned up some confusing names around the mills in the questline “Unveil the Mask.”
Miscellaneous Changes
- Increased crafting skill level-ups per successful crafting attempt. More time fighting, less time in the workshop!
- Frames per second performance indicator has been added to the UI. It moves with the clock, but you can turn off either independently.
- Guildmasters can now delegate GvG rights of declaration, surrender, changing GvG state (PVE server only) to a designated guild rank.
- When warriors use Traverse Cut as a chain skill, damage received now decreases by 70 percent.
- When using an emote more than four times within five seconds, the chat message associated with that emote will not display. You can still /cry as much as you want to, though.
- The social chat message from successful gathering and crafting will no longer be displayed. Save the cheers; save the world!
- Teleport scrolls from vanarch specialty stores will now indicate which instance they take you to.
- Unique art assets have been added for guilds to congregate around.
- Fighting arena outside the Velika north gate.
- Guild gathering spots.
- Podium (at Freedom Plaza within Velika).
- Trial users will now receive options to purchase TERA throughout their trial play.
- Trial characters will no longer be kicked out at level 23, but will no longer gain experience.
Zones
- We found some more loot! Rewards have been increased for six instance dungeons.
- Sigil Adstringo: increase in weapon drops, armor drops, added crystals.
- Ascent of Saravash: increase in weapon drops, armor drops, added crystals.
- Suryati’s Peak: increase in weapon drops, armor drops, added crystals.
- Kelsaik’s Nest (normal): added crystals.
- Kelsaik’s Nest (hard):
- Increase in fanesteel drops.
- Increase in dream bindings drops.
- Increase in tier 13 weapon drops.
- Increase in tier 13 armor drops.
- More refined alkahest and masterwork alkahest are dropped on average per dungeon run.
- More rare crystals are dropped on average per dungeon run.
- Labyrinth of Terror (hard): Increase godsmarrow drop rate, sleeper armor drops, and crystal drops per dungeon run.

LOL, I just bought a Chronoscroll for 2.4k on VoT and extended my sub. I guess I'll spend a day or two farming up gold to buy some extra Chronoscrolls so I can keep extending my sub indefinitely. Thank you to whoever paid $15 to extend my sub another month, and please keep doing it so I can keep playing for free!
I hope this drives down prices of items too.

Huh, T14 with part 2 of the patch, I hope they don't require +9'ed T13 to do it.
Edit:
The prices for scrolls listed make me wish I picked a more populated server. :-/

Damn, 200 gold? Maybe someone meant to type in 2000. You could grind 200 gold easily in 1 hour. I should get a bunch of chronoscrolls from the AH/TB when I log back in lol.
Patch was applied but the server are down...goes to check server status and they say everything is fine lol...
And what's a Chronoscroll exactly,everyone is talking about this all of a sudden.

Somewhat regretting my 1 year sub now. I could easily farm enough to buy these every month without breaking a sweat.
Are these prices due to the current cost of RMT TERA gold or did everyone buy a bunch of chronoscrolls with high expectations and are now flooding the market to get rid of them before the market for them completely crashes? I wonder what the price is going to stabilize at...
From a solo or small group perspective, it's pretty easy to get about 200-500+ gold a day from doing dailies, farming level 60 mobs, farming BAMs, farming crafting materials, or crafting high demand items.
If you have a static group in your guild that is already geared then you can run instances and split the sales from all the loot dropped. You could get enough for a chronoscroll in a matter of hours.

I feel I can get 2k by farming one hour straight on the three towers. So I think that 2 or 3 days or so before subscription ends, I'll see how much the scrolls are worth and just farm that amount.
Rather unlikely that you'll get 2k in one h...
But yah, it's relatively easy to farm gold, especially as a slayer. I had no problems dropping 2k gold on a chrono scroll as the alternative would have been just leaving the gold sitting there on an inactive account.
I don't know. I do 250g in about 25 minutes e sell the loot to vendors for another 100g. So... ok, I'm off.
But still, the point is, one day farming gold = 30 days of non-subscription.

If you farmed your ass off for a week you could probably buy a year's worth of Chronoscrolls with the gold.
Essentially Chronoscrolls make it so players become the Chinese gold farmers instead of, you know, Chinese gold farmers. This is good for everybody, good for the players who farm gold to play for free, good for the players who buy Chronoscrolls to sell for gold, and good for EME who essentially introduce official RMT into the game without the various unpleasant side effects of Chinese gold farmers messing with the game's economy. It's almost the only smart thing EME has done for the NA/EU version of Tera.

Reading the list of QoA2 changes in more detail, I'm not seeing the promised zerker revamp they were teasing. Unless that's coming after QoA2, in which case I'll just farm up a bunch of gold, buy a bunch of Chronoscrolls, and quit until it arrives. I dunno, I could just re-roll a Slayer, but knowing how pointless the game is after you hit the cap, I would rather just quit.
