EU player, new to Celestial Hills

MathewKunMathewKun
in New & Returning Player Help
Good day folks! As the title of the thread suggests I'm an EU player of Tera and a such have been playing the game on the Gameforge servers so far. However with the declining population of my server, my guild dying and the god awful lack of role play I've been considering kicking the bucket and starting afresh on the en masse servers for a few reasons. First of all, I hear that en masse simply has a better subscription plan with a flat our EXP bonus rather than just an hourly buff with a cool down and simply a better cash shop (So you don't end up spending £200 trying to get a pretty dress!) Secondly, I've known for a while now that the Celestial Hills server is the go-to role play server but I've never actually played on it. I know Tera overall has had a bit of a bash to it's numbers but is there still role play to be found on Celestial Hills? I've also heard that a bunch of other EU players have hopped on over to Celestial Hills for the reasons I've mentioned as well as others, is that the case? It'd be handy to be able to hang out with people from my own timezone so I'm not having to wake up at ungodly hours to do stuff with people.

    I should make a copy&paste text on this ..

    - i changed some years ago from EU to NA
    - Elite (subscription) buffs are permanent, you even get a daily gift with a chance on Felicity. Plus free permanent charms and potion. Not gonna list all advantages
    - shop pricing is fair. You dont have to buy a bundle with slow sellers
    - there are a lot of EU players, on CH should be a lot of them. However, they split up everywhere and are not found in in single guild
    - unlike EU Tera, NA Tera has no day-and-night cycle. You will always find someone to play with. However, peaks are EU prime time and NA prime time.
    - you've joined the right time. EME is having a popular event, called Kyras. You will get permanent cosmetics. All you now have to do is leveling.
    - RP on CH is stil there. Just ask for the "RP tavern" in Velika and global will POI you. However, the RP guilds are not that visible (if you have no idea about RP, you wouldnt think CH is an RP server) even when there are RP events running
    - the "Good day, folks" and £ gave you away. The question is whether you voted out or in :) Leave your ingame name (PM) and I will send you 5k gold for your new start on CH, NA Tera.

    Just wanted to say a huge thank you to SaphirKanzaki for answering my questions and helping me out start off on Celestial Hills by giving me even more things than the 5k gold offered to me on here! The mount and such have been a phenomenal help and I greatly appreciate the assistance! Top quality bloke/lass right there.

    Hi, since there is already an open talk about it, is there a recomended server to start with? i mean with big and friendly community.
    I used to play TERA long time ago (when it was in beta :D ) and coming back now

    I'd still recommend reading Kamizums' Server Guide.

    thank you very much :) looks like MT is the best choice by this thread. is it still like that?
  • SaphirKanzakiSaphirKanzaki ✭✭✭✭
    Yes, it didn't change much. Keep in mind that MT comes first in gameplay, not "friendly" (as you mentioned above). So you have to have a thicker skill to go through several situations where you're labeled as newbie.

    i am not new to RPGs tho but i would like something more friendly to begin with, anything you personally recommend?
  • SaphirKanzakiSaphirKanzaki ✭✭✭✭
    Ah, sorry, cant recommand anything as I was a progress player once and explicitly searched for a laid back MMO and a laid back server. This is why I'm on Celestial Hills. It's just that the general melody on those "tryhard" (as he calls it) servers is a bit rougher. This doesn't mean that you can find a couple of nice people in a guild.

    So if you're first impression is that you would fit into MT (as a performance player), you should stay with your decision.

    as my last mmo was wow, had both char on pvp server and RP server (EU tho, not NA) but both were really nice servers. find it hard to choose haha, i think i will just try them both for a few lvls and choose, since i am going Elite as well.
    Thanks for the info mate.
