Im so lost help me please

So I played when vm1 was a thing and when vm2 came out you had to invisabam hard to win. I quit on the day gunner came out, by then you could +15 things for the 1st time and sell it off and I did so. Im just now coming back to this game and holy wow Im lost. No more charms and camp fires, flying mounts, all the potions and warding scrolls are useless, all crafting accept for etchings seem to be useless. I got the free gear and +12 it all getting me to itemlevel 397. Any info people can give me, I see there are new glyphs, whats top gear, how do I get it. What should I run? Im an archer on mt with a priest alt. My days of max pve and pvp perfect gear was a long time ago. Maybe someone has a discord I can hang in to get info or something even.

    Start from quest 'raider' s challenge' from HM its will take you trough instances that drop low/mid gear, jewelry. Green glyphs can be farmed from Sabex Armory and Marcellarius Catacombs. Rare blue ones RNG from token shop.

    Current gear is slaughter -guile -imperator (previous patch VM) - Ambush (current VM)

    Welcome back @USStealthOps
    The day they made +15, let alone made it sell-able on the broker is the day they more or less ruined TERA.
    But let's not get into that. That is a personal opinion. And i have been playing since Augest of 2013.

    Anyway.

    For the New Glyph Boxes, they can be obtained with Intercede Tokens (40x)
    But remember, These boxes do not guarantee the glyphs you need. Still RNG based.
    If you wish to buy the Glyph Directly, You need to convert Those Intercede Tokens into Supercede Tokens.
    But the price is kind of [filtered]. 300x Supercede Tokens per Glyph. But it is what it is.
    As for old Glyphs you might be missing?
    They can be obtained with Vanguard Credits @ the Vanguard Merchant
    Or by running Macellarius Catacombs & Sabex Armory for the RNG boxes

    As for gear progression.
    Slaughter +12 > Guile +12 > Conflate +12 > Starfall +15 > Imperator +15 > Ambush +15
    This is PvE

    Guile (t10) Ambush VM (t11) are the latest addition's to the game.
    Slaughter (t9) Conflate (t9) Starfall (t9) was last patch.

    Slaughter can be obtained thru Kalivan's Challange & Demokron Factory

    Guile (which is a small upgrade from Slaughter, more or less to boost your i-lvl)
    Can be obtained thru Lilith's Keep & Shadow Sanguinary

    Conflate which is pvp based armor, can be crafted. But since it was buffed this patch, it's actually pretty good for PvE as well.
    The only line it's missing for PvE that i noticed is the Chest line *Reduces Damage by 6%) which isn't half bad.
    Conflate Designs can be obtained thru BG credits, But since Conflate is Bind on Equip, Someone else can also craft this for you.
    The Colluva Ingot's can be obtained various ways (dungeons, broker, etc)
    The Nodes needed can be obtained with BG credit's or the broker.
    BG boxes such as Sea chests, Kuma Boxes also have a chance to obtain the Nodes & Ingots.

    Materials For Starfall (VM6) no longer drop (that i am aware of) so the only way to obtain this is thru the broker.

    Not entirely sure where Imperator (VM7) Designs drop (sorry) but they also can be obtained on the broker.
    Materials for Imperator (VM7) can be obtained thru Shadow Sanguinary (Hard) Sky Cruiser Endeavor (Hard)
    The Rune of Secret's which is also needed for VM7 drop from Vault of Kaprima, Demokron Factory (Hard) & Shadow Sanguinary
    But the Rune is also sell-able, so it can also be purchased on the broker.

    Ambush, is the new VM (VM8). Designs for this i believe drop in Ruinous Manor (Hard) & Maybe Lilith's Keep (Hard) ??
    Materials can also be obtained thru those dungeons as well as:
    Shadow Sanguinary (Hard), Ruinous Manor, Sky Cruiser Endeavor (Hard) Lilith's Keep
    And some of the Materials needed can also be purchased with BG credits as well, but the prices are kind of high.

    Hopefully you find some of this information useful.
    If you have anymore question's feel free to ask!

    As for Discord. I don't have one (hardly use it)
    But i do have a TS server available to casual late night gamers of Mount Tyrannas
    Address is tx2.gamersvoip.net:9993 if you care to check it out.
    Sadly it's not being used, But I'm trying to get a active community going!
    And mentioning it every once in awhile is the only way!

    And if i misspelled anything sorry!
    was kind of in a rush writing all this, and now i have to get ready for work :+1:

  • Ty, all these comments where very very hepful, if I'm not mistaken, I had all glyphs for both my characters accept for the most resent glyphs, so I'll have to get those. I had some money left and like 47k tier 8 shop credit. Just figured that out and bought some keys and got super lucky with spell bind. So here's a question, if I just drop like 800k gold on shop gear would that be a good idea or with +12 idonel gear what's the best thing to go for right now and 12? I could buy some vm7 then try for 8, or I can get wonderholm equivalent which is what?

    If your just going to stick with PVE I would suggest going with slaughter. Like I said guile is honestly just a side grade to raise your i-lvl. After that just farm materials for imperator.(Weapons first) then either finish imp and call it a day or work on ambush afterwards. Or you can craft conflate but imo it's not really worth it since all bgs are equalized besides 3's and the only owpvp there is is Civil Unrest which is once a week for 2hrs. that and your occasional ganking and group fights. No more alliance or guild vs guilds. But since the gear can be used for both pve / pvp it's up to you
  • OK ty for the info, ill get full imperator as soon as i can, might just buy weapon right away and work from there, sucks because i used to love gvg fraywind and 3s, i was one of those invabam farmers and got full vm2 pvp saying f pve till vm3 came out and then i had both pve and pvp sets since it was more easy to get compared to vm2. So vm7 and 8 have pvp and pve stats? i kinda like that because it saves time but then you cant wreck non pvp people that are in the wrong part of town XD
