Is pvp in this game still viable?

Hello there, I used to play this game a couple years back but had to move due to the ridiculous grind cycles repeating the same stuff every 6-8 months. My question is has the repetitive grinding changed at all with some new unique content or is it still the same cancerous stuff? Also is being pvp focused still viable in this game? I lost my old account so I don't want to waste time leveling to 65 only to find out the game has not improved one bit.

    In the zones you asked for improvement there haven´t been none, sorry.

    There are a bit of more stuff to do with the recent Celestial Arena and Echoes of Aranea thing alongside Ace Dungeons, but they are nothing compared to what you can gain doing dungeons and the same repetitive grindy stuff.

    PvP in the game is not dead, but its heavily centered on gear and elitism made by other players, so it is toxic and such, alliance was removed to and now you got Civil Unrest, but that is practically of "May the biggest win" sort of thing.

    There has been no improvements to PvP at all! :expressionless:
  • Not really any point in gearing just for PVP as the only PVP is open world which with a dead community, blows, and battlegrounds are equalized so that leaves the only reason to have gear "Civil unrest" which happens once a week, can be easily monopolized and abused with a lack of any small mass PVP. It's mostly just like 40v40 and your frames are so bad you can basically aim into anywhere and kill someone.

    TERA is mostly about PvE, PvP would be offered as more of a minigame.
  • PvP is dead. Don't bother. All MMORPG are repetitive gear cycle grinding.

    What PvP do you speak of? You're a year late to the party. It's been dying a slow horrible death.

    PVP BGs has all been "equalized" and gear no longer matters. The problem is the equalized gear is pretty crappy and favor certain classes over others. BGs pop during power and the jackpot weekend rewards are pretty good if you win

    Wow that's incredibly boring because progression is the foundation of every RPG. I may as well play an FPS if everybody in BG's is a clone of each other.

    @sinkra

    you're correct. quite a good % of Tera's Pvp scene (what was left of it) have moved on to other games because of that change.
