in TERA PC - General Discussion
As promised to myself, I went outlaw to run the fields to see how the openworld is like but see nearly no one, not even a red player.

I will try again this weekend when I have access to peak hours. :P

    Hey me too, I even went red in velika outskirts and people only played with me (love taps) :^)

    I tried to get myself PK'ed. But no one wanted to. Eventually I begged someone on my friends list and I had to go to them.

    You have to wait for an event. That's when the trolls come out to grief people or assert dominance in a farming area. Who would want to fight equal levels anyway? That's not fun.

    But wouldn't we all just hop a level 60 alt for open world events? ._.

    Well, in a PvP65 server, you can only fight other people with the same level since OWPvP is disabled for those under 65, and 65 is the cap.

    Mongos and [filtered] like that are the only times people actually get PK'd, usually.

    At this stage I can't really tell, because the number of people actually on is abysmal in towns. A little upset about that. Hopefully weekends we will see slightly more blood.

    2 dead servers merged into one mostly dead server. Seems expected. Merging doesn't really fix anything more often than not. A new fresh start server that everyone agrees to go to as a community usually solves the problem. Worked in a few games.

    Well, HW itself was a sort of "fresh start server." It wasn't mostly-dead overall but was lacking in the end-game community due to being a "fresh start server," hence merging LoT and VoT into it (which had some end-game community, despite low overall population). So there's not really a perfect solution.

    I already have characters in AV even before the mention of a server merge, but my FF characters are there to stay.

    I am no pure PvE player. I play both.

    What kind of logic is that?

    Example: You have 100 people on MT and CH. You have 30 on VoT, 25 on LoT and 40 on HW, merging makes 95 on FF. 3 full servers.

    Your approach: a new server (NS) opens and people from all servers are transfering there for server first, name selling and so on (we saw that with HW). You now have 65 on NS, 90 on MT+CH, 15 on VoT, 10 on LoT, 25 on HW. You just generated one viable server but also 3 completely dead servers. Unlike HW, you dont pour in new players by other means (steam). Those left on LoT will just quit, followed by VoT, HW.

    Please explain how this did work in other games, I'm really curious.

    i wonder when av or ch will get merged into a new server. I think if that happens, many will leave the game.

    I think it is unlikely for a long time. CH has a unique identity and has proven rather resilient over time. It's not the top server for end-game, but it has a stable crowd and is well-populated. AV is also well-populated and has a larger end-game community than HW managed to have (but is still probably a bit smaller than TR or CH). All in all, though, I don't see any pressing need right now, and if they were to merge it would probably be because a lot of people already did leave the game. Plus, I don't think it's likely these servers would need this same style of merger.

    Don't forget you can have an un-pkable level 64 for open world events!!
