Next gear patch + Starfall?

I saw the thread about how apparently there is an influx of +15 T9 scrolls on the broker due to some glitch..
People were saying T9 will become worse soon since T11 will be released.

When did KTERA get their T11 gear? I know we don't have a date for this yet, but I am just curious as to how soon this patch may come since I was considering +15ing my starfall weapon on either my Reaper or Mystic.

I currently use conflate on my reaper for PvP and slaughter on my mystic for PvE, but have to mats to craft starfall.
Is it still worth to do it now?

    If you have mats and are very close from +15ing, I think you could go for it. if you have nothing in that matter, just save your mats. The next patch will add VM8 which is T11. T10 will become mid tier and T9 will be starter. If you do happen to get +15 scrolls for T9, then use them now and save other mats for next VM or for Imperator which will be viable. Though what I have not heard is if Imperator will be as available next patch as SF is now, or if BHS will want to finally limit the numbers of people with VM gear and push the majority to mid tier, as it should be in my opinion.

    As for dates for NA, I don't know yet.

    15 Starfall will still be relevant for next patch, it will be almost the same as the new T10 mid tier gear.

    I was thinking of buying a +15 scroll if they're as cheap as people are saying, I haven't logged in yet. But I don't wanna buy it if it isn't worth it.. @Nopi @Zoknahal

    Also, it's good to be geared in full +12 T9 for now in general though, right? My boyfriend is new and just hit 65, I was going to help him gear up to +12 slaughter. I guess it would be necessary to have this to at least be able to run the new dungeons for the new patch?

    Slaughter gear +12 will probably be enough for the mid tier new dungeon, as i believe that will serve as a gearing dungeon. Maybe Loriri has more details about it. I suppose is enough, considering a fully geared +12 slaughter character with correct etchings and rolls on armor and weapon, can clear SSHM.

    Consider what you can do right now in terms of end game with +12, properly rolled Dreadnaught gear. That's more or less the same you will be able to do with Slaughter on next patch. Remember also that today is now and we still don't even have a date for the patch on NA. So if you want to play the game now, then gear to what we have now, but leaving some back up for when patch hits and tomorrow becomes now. Meaning, if you have a lot of money and you have SF gear, just get the scroll off the broker and happy +15. As for DN and SL, remember that those gears are meant as mid tier for only one patch. Next patch they drop to starter, and the patch after that, they are obsolete.

    1. People were saying T9 will become worse soon since T11 will be released.

    To make it short and simple, T9 is between Low tier and Mid-tier-- basically Low-Mid tier. Slaughter will be Low tier replacing Dreadnaught, while Starfall would be lower-mid tier which would be better than Slaughter. However, Starfall weapon won't do as well as Imperator, Lilith, and VM8 because they were buffed by 5% attack modifier on August 11th.

    2. When did KTERA get their T11 gear?

    T11 gear was released on July 21st on KTERA. Just as side note, we are currently in KTERA's June 19th patch.

    3. I currently use conflate on my reaper for PvP and slaughter on my mystic for PvE, but have to mats to craft starfall. Is it still worth to do it now?

    Personally I'd say the boots and gloves are okay compared to T10 midtier (Lilith). I'd go for just conflate boots for extra tanky defense though.
    From what I hear so far in KTERA, Starfall isn't much worth it unless you +15 it-- but that's probably people being salty and QQ.
    I'd say they are good enough for top-tier dungeons though, which would be Lilith HM, Rakelith NM, SSHM, SCHM. I mean, SSHM wasnt even that bad as full Lucid Lancer myself.
    For Mid tier dungeons, even dreadnaught +12 was more than enough to tank it. I did it on +11 dreadnaught in KTERA lmao;; I admit i did die a lot because the mechanics are kinda bs and 200+ ping didnt help.
