  • Balancing the Queue, New PvP Servers!

    Queues. Bleh. No one wants to log into their favorite MMO only to be greeted by that ominous pop-up message telling you the length of the line you have to wait in before you even get to play. Because PvP is so popular in TERA, all three of TERA's PvP servers experienced queues of varying times at launch. The Valley of Titans server became extremely popular with the PvP crowd—so much so that everyone wanted to be on it.

    Normally, the first thought when you have too many people on a server is to simply open additional servers. The problem is that players and guilds are already entrenched, having invested time and resources on server A, so opening server B doesn't help existing users. To address both server crowding and player aversion to starting over, we added a new PvP server, Feral Valley, on April 29, and opened character transfers on April 30.

    We already have a large and growing population of players (both old and new) on Feral Valley, and populations are leveling out across the remaining PvP servers. There are still queues on the more popular servers, but overall, queue sizes are now half of what they were previously. More importantly, you now have a choice. You can stay where you are and ride out the queue-storm, or switch to Feral Valley now, knowing that you can switch back to Valley of Titans once the queues die down so you can play TERA with your friends.

    We are still monitoring and optimizing server populations, which is why you'll notice we may limit new character creation or character transfers from time to time. Fear not! These are always temporary measures that we use to even out populations and ensure the health of all of our servers.

    by Ari



    Guild Battle #12 has wrapped, and we’re proud to report a Rank 220 finish against none other than Gi Garrag! a relentless remnant of the once-feared Gi Tribe.

    For those unfamiliar, the Gi were a powerful enemy of the Cetra, driven by hatred and territorial greed. Long believed to have been wiped out, echoes of their vengeance still linger beneath Cosmo Canyon and in Ever Crisis, that hatred has manifested once again through Gi Garrag’s hulking, corrupted form....

  • Guild Battle #11 Recap: Rank 236 vs. Twin Trouble
    by Ari



    Another round down, and this one had us staring straight into the eyes of Ra and Iga, the Vajradhara twins! two sides of a brutal, elegant coin. These twin bosses are as graceful as they are punishing, weaving attacks in sync that test both timing and team synergy.

    Despite the challenge, we pushed through and proudly landed at Rank 236 for Guild Battle #11. Not bad for a crew that ranges from spreadsheet warriors to folks just here for the Final Fantasy vibes....

    by Ari


    We wrapped up Clan Battle #9 vs Odin in Ever Crisis with a solid Rank 206 finish! Definitely a respectable spot, but there’s always room to climb and tighten up those clears.
