    for anyone that dont want read everything, the rewards are
    With a chance for jackpot rewards of high value such as Tier 11 +15 scroll, Smart Dyad Structure, and BoE Captivation gear
    Also rewards consist of new item: a further improved Superior Etching, BiS gear Ancient Wyvern Vergoth Gear Set which uses the VM8 as a base, outer appearance changing BiS New Brooch, etc


    also i cant wait to see this new gear and brooch stats.

    Im excited for this. Fact that they made it a rewarding dungeon for once is great news
  • If they do work on easing the lag then this might actually be pretty fun ^^. That boss looks epic! Thank you for translation Loriri and Seraphinush :3
  • Another new Brooch?

    Here's to Part 2 of Etching Murder.
  • Thanks for your hard work translating. It's very useful to know what will be coming to our version of TERA.
    I don't believe a 30 man hard core raid instance will do much to boost the player population in NA TERA. If large scale hard core raids are popular, WoW would still have 40 man raids and raid-centric WildStar would be a top MMORPG. I imagine it is hard enough for most people to find four others to do the hardest dungeon. Now imagine trying to find 29 others to clear the hardest raid with four stages. It doesn't seem the development team takes account of NA preferences when they allocate limited development resources.
  • Another new Brooch?

    Yea I haven't even made mine and now this. But as I understand it it's a drop not craftable luckily.

    Look like will be awarded by achievement, from what i understood
  • I'm sorry but did they just recycle Nexus Traverse and reuse Murderous Intent for the new brooch?

    holy sh*t!! retooling is coming back with VM9!!! :D

    It's more like VM8.5. Similar to how ABHM in Wounded World days dropped an archetype (VM3) weapon different from the crafted ones, which was intense+quick archetype combined, people dubbed it VM3.5.

    If this is a pro-player-only instance, I assume every server will have only exactly 30 people to clear these, at most. While it's great to have harder content, when the game starts catering to casuals, only to then release hard content, it's like BHS is sending a mixed message. That or they simply want to please everyone, which would be a big mistake in the long run. We will have to see when the content releases.

    I'm willing to bet it's 10 players that do the heavy lifting while the rest do whatever
