    The reason is people probably using over 100keys under 10 secs...

    Just stepping in to politely remind the OP that the "P2W" strongbox event lowers the price of MWA, Spellbind, and anything else that can drop from it, which is beneficial to everyone, not just swipers. While I'd prefer a different solution to the shortage of these things, it does help massively. Prices have already dropped by a pretty large amount in one day.

    P2W : stuff on emp store is better than anything a normal player can get
    Ok.

    So Elite is p2w cause free player can't get it. Thanks for confirming.

    What's that you say? Free player can buy it off other players? Ok then. Make the VM8 +20 tradeable, problem solved, it's not p2w, normal player can get it then just like they get Elite.

    Make new +20 gear. Make said gear untradeable. Put it in item shop alone. Ban anyone trying to get this gear without paying real money.
    Alright. Therefore putting new gear +20 in the EMP shop is not p2w as long as it is tradeable, correct?

    If it is p2w even while being tradeable, what makes Elite any different? Please explain.

    And well, comparing with other games who are worse results in the fallacy of relative privation: http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Not_as_bad_as

    In no way does it validate your argument that this game is not p2w by comparing it with worse games. And neither does the fact that some players have difficulty gearing up or not. It's not a question of difficulty to begin with.

    Elite is farmable wtf
    Tradeable +15 gear in the EMP shop is farmable as well. In fact even farmable ingame, so it's even less p2w. Yet people whine about adding gear direct in the shop (gear that is obtainable in the game PLUS tradeable from the shop, too).

    Logic please. "wtf".

    PVP rating when you have the gear before the opposition does, Crusade ratings when you can farm HM dungeons weeks before the others do, etc... First clears, high scores, and the list goes on.

    Tera is P2W, there's not two way about it.

    HOWEVER, it's not so overwhelming that you can't play the game as a free player.

    Tell me what what has gear to p2w? First clear every half of year much wow p2w, Ds1 first clear people got without +15 wow much p2w

    You need skill for high scores and first clears.


    Pls tell me more about p2w tera hahah

    @Borsuc next time you quote someone, dont quote the part that you agree with, quote the rest, ok?

    Also blind isnt the person who can see, is the person who cant see the truth when it is on his face.

    If you belive this game p2w , its your conviction, we are not gonna change it no matter what we say.
  • BorsucBorsuc ✭✭✭
    @Ketoth what the hell are you talking about? Nowhere did I state my opinion, I'm breaking it down for hypocrites who say so much bs.

    The fact is that IF you think Elite is not p2w (and I'm talking in general, this is a LOGICAL CONCLUSION, not you specifically), then VM +15 gears in the EMP shop are not p2w either as long as they are tradeable, or farmable in the game.

    Simple as that.

    However, 99% of people who say you can farm Elite or that it's not p2w will rage or whine about the VM +15 weapons in the shop being p2w, pretty hilarious hypocrites.

    So no I don't need any conviction and I'm not here to share my opinion. It suffices to show how stupid people's arguments are.
