Open World PVP

in TERA PC - General Discussion

Please bring back alliance and nexus. Why have a pvp server if there is no pvp? And have it to where you can be an outlaw at level 12 and be able to be killed at level 12. But have high infamy for killing players lower then you. And if you're an outlaw (red) you have your flying privileges revoked. That way there's a penalty for pking but still an available option to do so. Also what about GVGs where you take over a territory like you did in the beginning. For ex: when people would fight over a territory and win their banners would be all over that area. It was a way to advertise and get noticed. And when a guild declares a battle the other guild can't decline, they either have to wait it out until it's over or battle it out. Please bring back OPEN WORLD PVP. If people don't like it there's a pve server....

    Just going to be honest... we're the only region of the game left that even has a server with a PvP label anymore, and I'm not convinced that'll continue indefinitely in the transition to a new publisher. The developers are now investing in the new MOBA mode for TERA, and I think that is really going to be their focus for things PvP-related going forward. So yeah, I'd say odds are quite low, but hey, you never know...

    I would really like to see OW PvP stay. It would be pretty sad to see the last relic of PvX stripped away.
    Of course I'm in the camp with a few other players where I think that pvp under level 65 should come back as well.
    There's nothing better to break up the usual grind of an MMO than some OW pvp. CS at level 30 with a pretty descent matching system was also part of that. Every new player who queues for Kumas Royal while leveling immediately gets the impression that modern TERA battlegrounds are a joke.

    I think this game has a really bad habit of sunsetting content with nothing to replace it. But seeing as how the publishers have a fair bit of control over what content is actually gone for good (IE pvp and event dungeons), this should be something the player base can work to change.

    There's actually been a pretty substantial portion of players who quit over lacking pvp content in this game and Bluehole really doesn't know what they're doing if they think that a MOBA can actually replace real MMO pvp. I honestly hope TERA Battle Arena does well but it shouldn't cannibalize TERA the MMO.

    PvP does still have a chance if it's actually given one. As a small example of this (hopefully this isn't breaking any rules but I'll be vague), there's a certain tera server that exists on the gunner patch that is hugely popular for it's pvp just look on Youtube. Also several streamers even high profile ones like Summit1G said that they quit tera when they got rid of "real" open world pvp.
