  • (Quote) Hmmm yeah, it may have been the case years ago and I just forgot -- that's true. But the OP implies it was recent, and even happened randomly while leveling? Well, who knows... Elite XP is issued by the server in any case, so it should h…
  • (Quote) Well, I'm not saying you're both wrong, but I've never seen this in all the years I've played the game, or in any region/account I've tested, and I don't see any option in any accessible setting to change this. So if there's a way to do th…
  • Oh, as I said in the other thread where you mentioned this, I bet they just forgot about Lumbertown. This is an abandoned game zone now.
  • (Quote) Heh -- I'm wondering if they just forgot about Lumbertown since this is basically an abandoned area now.
  • (Quote) They did make the leveling dungeons significantly more challenging in this patch, but in principle it should always be possible to solo most content in the game if you know your class and good at dodging telegraphs, excepting for a) DPS che…
  • (Quote) Well, from their point of view, you can still duel (by mutual agreement) or do battlegrounds, or wait until you're level 65. What they've removed is basically the possibility for ganking a low-level player. They did this as part of efforts…
  • It's not possible to do this anymore because the game now forbids all open-world PvP for characters under level 65 (except duels). So there won't be any more newbie PK in this game anymore, except potentially at level 65 (but people rarely leave sa…
  • (Quote) Nah, what you're talking about is actually Rested XP, not Elite XP. That's why you saw it for the first hour or so (when you had rested XP stored on that character). It wasn't 50% Elite XP, it was 100% Rested XP (100% of Base, which is 50…
  • The Elite XP boost happens "invisibly" in the game, and you won't see it called out in any way in the logs. What you are mentioning ("half Elite XP") is actually Rested XP, which shows up in blue in your combat logs. This will …
  • (Quote) I get what you're saying, and I really do feel they should be more communicative about the issue. But launch day for any MMO expansion or major online game is pretty notoriously rough across the whole industry. Most people with any experi…
  • (Quote) No, it's just the way it's implemented. Whoever is first on the server will get it automatically, and then everyone else will be awarded it manually after the fact (a few days later) via a script. It's the same way as it was with Ninja, b…
  • (Quote) If you can't enter the server (if you're getting that message), it means that you did not patch. Definitely try restarting the launcher completely to get the latest patch. If it still doesn't work, then there could be a patch server probl…
  • It was a 24-hour event that was explained in the news post: http://tera.enmasse.com/news/posts/new-class-the-valkyrie (It was also the same style of event that was run with the previous new class launch.)
  • (Quote) In a few cases, it could, though you would be more likely to notice client-side slowdown (low framerate/freezing).
  • Okay, so if a wired connection is much smoother, then I think that at least helps to narrow things down a bit. My guess is that congestion or interference on the wireless channel you're using is part of the issue here (my sister actually recently h…
