New to the game, fresh 65, where to start?

Icyboi

Hello,
I have tried searching for updated guides or tips on what to do now days as a fresh level 65, but could not find anything useful.
So, yeah, I downloaded the game yesterday and got level 64 (and servers went down, sigh) on my Reaper, now how to start as 65 to gear up for pvp/pve?

Any tips, guides, links, suggestions, etc, are more than welcome.
Thanks!

I only really know PvE, but first you wanna do the Island of Dawn quest to get your dread gear and a bunch of other useful stuff. I'd also recommend doing the 60-65 story if you havent already.

You wanna +12 dread gear, by getting mats like feedstock from dailies and dungeons, and then go onto getting slaughter gear. This is as far as I've got so far, hopefully this helps.

Like he said up top do the story 60-65 quests. Then head to island of dawn and the quests there for your dread naught gear then run channelworks, kalivans challenge, abscess normal mode, and IoD dailies to enchant your dread gear to +12. Once that's accomplished u head to demokron factory and run that into oblivion until u have your slaughter gear. From there more IoD dailies and other dungeon runs to get ur feed, mwa, etc to get the mats to upgrade ur gear to +12. Then after that u can now run pretty much whatever u want :proud: . You also will need to upgrade ur jewelry somewhere in there but that's not too bad to figure out when ur running those dungeons ^^

Thanks for all the information!
What would be IoD dailies? Sorry, I have never heard the term.

Gratz on reaching lvl 65!
Here are a few things I would recommend in terms of getting ready for the end game.
If you havent gotten full dreadnaught gear yet I would recommend finishing the quest line for isle of dawn also while you are doing that you should also tackle the lvl 65 dungeon quests... both are gotten at highwatch and should be relatively easy. If you are interested in pve and pvp I would recommend getting to know pve first before you tackle on the pvp side as both are very different from my experience. Also I would recommend joining a guild as it would be beneficial to meet new people that can also give you advice and etc. For gearing after you get full Dreadnaught +12 you will have a much more solid foundation to start choosing a path to work on.

If you want to go the PvP route i would recommend going for conflate gear which you would have to craft, the designs are sold for killing spree tokens i believe so farming your bg's would be a good way to start gearing for pvp. I recommend going for weapon, gloves, armor and then boots in that order. Also note you will need to get a new set of crystals since PVP crystals severely differ from PVE. There are many great guides out there for reaper PVP so you can probably get a hold of those.

As for the PvE You can start farming you Slaughter gear which is mid tier as of now and maybe even try crafting Starfall (I personally dont think crafting imperator is worth it at the moment) gear as it is high tier and probably best in slot gear for now. But you can get the recipe from running dungeons, but if you RNG is horrible like mine you can buy it off the broker, prices will vary depending on the servers.

As for materials for enchanting and such I would recommend doing your daily quests which is accessed by pressing H. You get some good amount of feedstock from doing them which will allow you to get higher enchantments off. Also you will get vanguard credits. Those are very important and I only recommend you to buy lvl 65 niveots (to match your class) and masterwork alkahest boxes. Crystals are 400 credits each and the boxes are 200 credits.

Although there is a lot more, this will get you pretty far and I wish you luck on your adventures! cheers~

welcome to the once finest MMORPG of all time I'm j/k'ing Tera is still a great game.

I would first recommend to find a good guild to play with. This is by far the most important. If you try to go solo in MMO... it'll take you 10x longer to find good groups and 100x longer to get your gear. Plus its 1/1000 as fun.

Next, make sure you have a set of good crystals. If you can't afford niveots yet, just get cruxes. But don't go into battlegrounds with hardy and pounding crystals.... people won't appreciate it. I don't really know reaper but it seems like it benefits from the usual dps crystals.

Third, run sabex armor, marcellius catacombs and farm those easy glyphs. Also farm the island of dawn BAMs and get the rare glyphs. I feel that many people ignore this and glyphs can make a big difference.

Lastly, just go along with your friends and try out instances and battlegrounds. From what I hear, reaper is a very easy class to play and worth investing as your main class.
