    Depends on your definition of it. If you think being able to buy endgame gear with real money is pay to win, then tera is a pay to win game by your standards since you can do that now. Just sell EMP, take that gold, and buy equipment from a quitting player. I see it all the time. People who have no dungeons under their belt but magically have the best gear possible and don't know how to use it because they p2w'd their gear in like a day. Since so many elements of gear progression can be sped along with raw gold nowadays, and raw gold can be easily purchased in legitimate ways, a strong case can be made that this game has lost a lot of integrity in that regard.

    Up to your definition though. Imo it's p2w where gearing is concerned, but not nearly as bad as other games like bdo, especially since it's easy to weed these people out and avoid them like the plague.

    Nobody is paying 280~ ish dollars for a +9 wep right off the bat unless they are some spoiled rich kid.
    Then you haven't seen some of the [filtered] I've seen, lol. Legit met people who've geared multiple "alts" in this way, and every week I run into some trap dps in LFG/IMS who has a +7 weapon with garbage armor/accessories because he bought it.

  • If you want the BiS gear you need money and lots of it. Most people dont have the time to grind as you would normally have to for it. So in that sense, the game has designs built in, if you spend money you can get BiS gear, but its choice, not a necessity.
