It's only working on Fey Forest right now. We're investigating why it's not working on the other servers. I'll post back with more info as we have it.

Is the event on right now? @Denommenator

It's noon PDT but I am not seeing the UI for the rewards. Restarted launcher as well to be sure.

We're verifying ourselves right now. It's active on Fey Forest from what I can tell. What server are you on?

Hi there. After discussing with some folks in the customer support department, I wanted to give you an update. When tickets are filed under "Player Reports," there IS a form message that goes out in response because, unfortunately, there's nothing else we can state on the situation for privacy reasons.

That doesn't mean that these tickets are tossed aside. Customer Support does investigate further - they just want to let folks know that their ticket has been received with the response you got. When they go to review the ticket ticket you mentioned in more detail later, they'll find it's blank, and move on.

I'd urge you to please report this player, with the included screenshots that you mentioned to me via PM, so that appropriate action can be taken.

When the daily timer resets, would we have to relog or does the next day timer start on its own?

Your daily timer will reset back to 0 hr 0 min played for that day. Once you log back in, it will begin to tick up as long as you are in game until the next reset.

So, you mean, the timer will reset to 0 but won't start counting for the new day until a relog? I'm suddenly very glad I have a clock on my keyboard....

The time at which the daily counter resets is fixed. It's at 4 a.m. PDT.

Your personal counter ticks only when you're in the game on a server.

I think this will all be much clearer once the event starts in about 90 minutes and you get a look at the interface.

Yes, that was what I had been referring to, but checking it now, it appears to be a Troll code.

I could have sworn that there was a code written in paint on the wall towards the very beginning of the Stream...

In case people wanted to know, here are the rewards. Seandynamite updated the news post, too.

Daily Rewards (repeatable daily)

30 minutes—Expiring Anthrozombie Elixir (6 hour) ×1
1 hour—Strong Bravery Potion ×3
2 hours—Lamb Bulgogi ×3
3 hours—Noctenium Infusion ×400
4 hours—Crimsonheart Loot Box ×1
5 hours—Crimsonheart Loot Box ×2
Event Rewards (one-time)

2 hours—Tier 11 Feedstock ×300
4 hours—Strongbox Key ×5
6 hours—Lakan's Scale ×5
8 hours—Badge of Loyalty ×5
10 hours—Lakan's Banner ×5
12 hours—Talisman of Lakan ×3

Follow-up. I spoke to Seandynamite about this. The answers to your questions are as follows:

Blue Bar: If you log out and log back in, the timer is only paused. It will not wipe.
Purple Bar: You only get the rewards once for the event.

The cumulative time and rewards are per server. If you play on 8 toons on one server, that has no effect on your characters that are not on CH.

That is still not really clear. If that is the case, then both bar are the same? If we reach 5h, the blue bar reset?

You said the purple bar is per server. What about the blue bar? Is it per server too? or per character?

Both timer bars are per server.

Have I missed this or something?

So I've been working on one for a little while now. I've gotten far, but there are so many missing pieces and misinformation out there from mistranslated lore it seems.

This is a legitimate request. I dunno how to ask for it, but I know that roleplayers would actually be interested in LEARNING about the Gods if they weren't so scattered and their relations not just thrown together for them to piece up.

I know it's probably not going to happen. This is just a rant after a lot of hard work going capoot, but ah well.

The Writing Team came up with a LOT of lore for TERA. Sadly, much of that has been lost to time, but I'll see if I can get them to piece something together. I'll dig through my old notes, too.

Ketoth wrote: »

is no stop time or i can relog without losing the time counts?

Fair question.

If you log out, you lose your time for that play session (the blue bar), but it still counts towards your cumulative total (the purple bar).

Ah. I see the problem. The image link was wrong. Thanks for the tip. I'll fix that right now.

The event isn't on the launcher yet, so there is no link from there. Here is the link from the News page.

We've been getting reports from multiple servers. I don't think this thread needs to be AV specific. As far as we can tell all TERA servers are experiencing connection spikes.

Edit - Also, thanks saltedcaramel for creating this discussion.

In all honesty, an updated character creation window would bring TONS of players, new and returning. Just add body sliders and much more customization options, like ability to mix and match ears, tails, and hairstyle for elins. Same for castanic, and more horn types for amani male, more hairstyles and makeup options for femani, the list goes on.

I'm curious why you think body sliders and more customization options would bring in tons of new players. Can you elaborate? Presumably a new player would have no idea what the preexisting customization options were, so they would all be new to them anyway.

I'd love to see where the Argons really come from. I've always imagined it looked like what they turned Argonea into, but what if it was a completely abstract dimension. If all of TERA is a dream, what if Argon dimension is a nightmare?

This is an ongoing forum topic and I've requested that the product team address the issue. We will be meeting with the Operations crew. Look for something soon.

Those items still work. I purchased a couple of items from the Federation Bills vendor and a guildie purchase and used the strongbox keys. They all seemed to function as normal. As recently as last night. *confused and bewildered*

During an event there were items that said they were strongbox keys but did not open any strongboxes, as one example. The players who have those items which are basically useless are getting them removed and replaced with functioning strongbox keys/fed bills.

This.

A small number of players received the wrong items from the Buddy Up program. This is remedying the problem by replacing Korean versions of the items (which don't work) with NA versions. Sorry for the confusion in the patch notes.

Okay. I think this discussion has stopped being productive. Thanks for the suggestion.

Furthermore I forgot to add @Spacecats if things weren't changed or touched, then can you explain why Lakan's Scales are in there when they weren't before? You said twice now that things weren't touched when players have posted getting them, including myself.

What he's referring to are the probabilities for the loot table (which I set up). Yes, the Tier 11 mats were swapped out for the Tier 12 mats, but that is literally the only change made. It is the same table that we have used since I began my tenure here. The Tier 12 mats were intended to be rare drops (and they are). Most of the time, you will earn dragon scales or feedstock.

The truth is that our Operations team is looking into the cause of the crashes. I think if more truth was known about why it went down today, the guys on the Ops crew would really appreciate it, but it's not a simple situation when it comes to TERA servers. For the time being, it's up and running again and they'll continue to monitor.

Consider the amount of issues AV has been having recently. Do you really think anyone in AV cares about about the context in quoted text?

Most people want the truth, not a random quote from a different thread concerning a different topic. It's one of the reasons that misrepresentation is listed in the forum rules & guidelines.

Ascension Valley is back up and running. People should be able to log back in now.

What part of this makes sense to any of you good folks at EME?

A server crash is different from lag. Please don't quote EME staff out of context. It gives people the wrong idea and muddles communication for people that are honestly looking for help.

I commented earlier about latency and how there are multiple ways your connection can be affected (including server performance on our end that has nothing to do with your ISP). Check it out if you're looking for clarification.

I'd suggest contacting Customer Support on this. They can check the status of the delivery and ensure you get founders status enabled.

We're aware of the outage on Ascension Valley. The server is in the process of being restarted. Our Operations team will investigate the cause of today's crash and continue to monitor other TERA servers.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

@Spacecats The noctenium problem has been here ever since Noctenium was introduced. It's not the main cause whatsoever. The way it works is, every time you consume ONE noctenium, the game will make a call to server to open your inventory, search through your inventory for noctenium, and minus ONE out of it. It was just the way the game is coded, and not a bug. Even though it shouldn't be that inefficient, we didn't have problem with noctenium since it was introduced long time ago.

Ah sure that makes sense, thanks. I can see that requiring more data to be sent/received. So it's not just a matter of more skills happening in a given length of time.

So with the move to noct potions, it seems like that issue wouldn't exist. Luckily I'm not the one that has to investigate it, just pass along the info

Fleett wrote: »

@Spacecats
You're telling us that all of a sudden the whole TERA playerbase had a luck change? lol

Nobody's really saying what kind of loot they were getting before, just that they aren't happy with what they're getting now. Threads like this are always a callout for people who think they aren't getting enough loot. I'm not saying the loot shouldn't or couldn't be better, but believe me that the settings have gone completely untouched. The chances of each item appearing in the jackpot is the same as it was during all of May and the start of June. They just swapped Handkerchiefs, Envys, and Hypnos with Banners, Badges, and Talismans when the new armor set came out.

I'll suggest to the TERA product team that the rewards be increased from what they have been. If PvPers don't feel like they're being rewarded for their time in BGs, it's definitely something that should be looked at.

If it happens again, can you let us know which BAM you were hunting for the daily? Did it show the "Additional rewards" bar underneath the quest in the VG window?

The noctenium theory is interesting. I've passed it on to the team in hopes that it will help uncover some of the spiking issues people are experiencing. No doubt Gameforge has also passed it on to Bluehole since it was brought up in their forums.

As for those saying that EME doesn't acknowledge game latency, let me assure you guys that it's something we're aware of. There are definitely situations where every person in a party experience lag at the same time, and it has nothing to do with their ISP. That doesn't mean when a player is lagging that it can't be a mixture of many things. I know it's easier to look at lag as a single problem with a single fix, but it's not that easy. If you're playing from Estonia on a spotty wi-fi connection, a skywhale bumps your router, and then TERA servers hiccup all at once, you're going to have... a bad time. If you're playing from Chicago that's less likely to happen, but even local connections get lag especially during peak hours of the day.

(Playing from Australia on the other hand... flawless -_-)

What we've found is that when server-side issues occur it's typically a big spike. The whole encounter will freeze and skills will be unresponsive for everyone in the instance. There's been an increase of this lately and our Operations team is still investigating (along with Bluehole) to find out why that's the case.

When it's an ISP or server network issue, players typically see an overall increase in ping and more subtle delays in the response times of skills or inventory/menus opening. Sometimes they just disconnect completely. That can be caused by network congestion in Chicago (like if there's a DDoS attack) or any number of things closer to the player's home that will be outside of our control. That's why we ask for diag files that have routing information.

So when we say that there's no evidence of network congestion on the server side of things, please don't take that to mean that we don't believe you're lagging or that it's all in your head. It could still be game related. It could also be something outside of both your and our areas of control.

Explain your situation when you submit your story and we can probably work something out. Like any contest we prefer to share the winning stories with the TERA community both because they're probably great entries, but also to confirm to everyone else that submitted work what the winning entry looked like. But exceptions can always be made.

The loot tables haven't been nerfed or changed in any way. They're the same as when they were set up. I'm afraid the only thing that's changed is your luck

That would be too brutal. Sorry.

The operations team is doing some migrations and updates across all of our services. It's not specific to any one game or event.

Good morning, TERA Community!

There will not be a maintenance on Tuesday, 6/13, but we will have an extended maintenance on 6/14.

Starting from 7 a.m. PDT on 06/14, TERA game servers, the TERA store, forums, and other account-related systems will be unavailable until the maintenance ends, at approximately 10 a.m. PDT. During maintenance, you will not be able to buy items through the web store, nor will you be able to buy EMP. Customer support will also be down during this period so you will not be able to submit tickets.

As soon as the operations team gives the all-clear, we will restore services as quickly as possible, but please note that the 10 a.m. window is an approximation. Should maintenance extend beyond 10 a.m. PDT, we’ll update this post.

We appreciate your patience! Thank you!

I really enjoyed the meeting Seandynamite. I like many of his ideas, especially about polling/connecting with the community when decisions are still in the formative stages.

That said, I just want to say, Spacecats--you in particular have done an amazing job of not letting your ego and/or hopes get in the way of a better decision when the community doesn't like something.

When the anniversary event didn't go...shall we say smoothly?...you listened, thought, then applied what you heard. Changing how tokens could be earned, prices, and possible PRIZES based on feedback you got.

You made a lot of people very happy in the end, and I think if SeanDynamite does as he seems to be saying, you two are going to make some sweet events together.

I'm really hopeful we can all start pulling together more to support the game.

I think we learned a couple things from Anniversary events in general that I think will help event planning as Seandynamite starts mapping things out for the coming months.



1) With all that we had planned, our slow roll-out method made it seem like we had less going on. If we'd put up a bigger news post at the start of May that listed every single thing we were planning to run for the next four weeks, I think it would have looked more spectacular from the start (even if we modified things after the fact). Part of the reason it was rolled out this way is because Velik's Fate was part of that content, but at the same time was contained in itself as an update.

2) The timing of Noesis' departure kind of borked and confused a couple things. I don't hold that against him because no time would ever have been an ideal time. He still did a TON of work surrounding the celebration. Hand-offs are just rough.

3) Quiz bowl hates me. It's so good though that once it's fixed by Bluehole I can't wait for you guys to see it.

Right now there are no additional details about TERA console to give other than the fact that it's on the way in 2017, bringing the world of TERA to console with a new UI and controller-based setup built from the ground up. The closed beta is still accepting sign-ups for both PS4 and Xbox: http://tera.enmasse.com/consolebeta

Edited title to remove callouts. If you have a question for a specific person please use direct messages.

Hey guys. We've checked with our Operations team to make sure there wasn't any network instability or server resource issues, and there are no indications of excessive load or memory usage. There's also no indication of mass player disconnects following the server outage yesterday (which was caused by an error unrelated to player traffic).

Lag is notoriously difficult to measure and pin down (especially when so much can cause internet latency). The recent reports that we've been getting from the player side indicate that people outside the US are having the most trouble, which makes sense.

Keep in mind that TERA is hosted in Chicago, so if you're connecting to the game from areas a great distance from there, your experience may be less than ideal or subject to interference that is often outside our control.

The CS team works very hard and tries to solve multiple issues at once whenever possible. If these tickets were both reports, the response to you would be the same and the CS agent simply closed them at the same time. I promise they didn't just dismiss the tickets out of hand.

There was no nerf. Same table as before, same odds. Sometimes, you eat the RNG, sometimes, the RNG eats you.

You might have already seen it, but I mentioned that a bug report has already been created, and since the response was sent in the other Thread, I'm going to go ahead and close this thread

As Spacecats has mentioned before in other various Forum Threads asking about TERA Console, although we would like to give you a fully accurate answer, we unfortunately don't have an official answer at this time, as there are still many factors that have yet to be determined.

When more details have been officially confirmed, there will most likely be a News Post announcement provided.

As a heads up, I took the information from the two recent Forum Threads on this and just filed a bug report.

The TERA team is looking into this. Thanks for bringing it to our attention!

We have confirmed and are actively investigating an issue relating to elite hotbar reset times. We understand this issue has, regrettably, plagued some players for an extended length of time (but not everyone, which makes this particular issue hard to pin down). While we work towards a permanent solution we've decided to roll out the following item grants.

Elite players upon first-time login to the launcher from now until June 14 at 11:59 p.m. PDT will receive:

- 10x Elite Consumable Boxes
- 10x Elite Gift Boxes

Each day elite players log in to the launcher between now and June 14 at 11:59 p.m. PDT, they will also receive one each of the above boxes. The reset time for this daily delivery is at 4 p.m. PDT (the same as the daily EMP grant).

We're hoping to have this solved by next week's maintenance, but if it extends beyond that we may extend the above deliveries accordingly.

Thanks to all the players that have been working with us directly to help investigate this issue.

Yes, though it was a bit messy, and perhaps due to a patch lag issue in the old days.

In 2015, the original 2014 models were first updated with new stats:
http://tera.enmasse.com/news/posts/inner-armor-loot-boxes-now-available

...and then the new 2015 models were released with the same stats as the updated ones:
http://tera.enmasse.com/news/posts/velik-s-secret-inner-armor-sale

The 2016 model was released with the new stats, and the older models were not updated (but kept in the store). And now in 2017, the new models have new stats, and all the previous models were removed.

(But again, part of what made this time different as well was that there was no forward visibility to K-TERA, which is where people usually get their info about the stats incoming gear would have. If it had been released on K-TERA first as in the past, the community would have already known about the stats and spread the word. Obviously that's not anyone's fault, but just a different dynamic this time around.)

Gotcha. That makes sense!

My haul was less significant than some of your guys' but I was pretty happy to get these for my Valkyrie:

• Unity stole
• Devil Head-wings
• Angel Head-wings
• Eagle helm
• 5x Bonanaza Boxes
• A potion

Did you pile them into your giant vault so you could swim around in them?

To make it more clear, I think the missing statement people were looking for would be something like "While the old models will continue to work indefinitely, the new models will feature a brand new look and slightly improved stats." ...or something like that.

We're looking into this issue right now. It is definitely a little insectoid...

Purchases through the web store work fine. It's only purchases made via the in-game store that give this error, so that's a shopping work-around for you.

The wording in the news post was like so...

It’s time to close out our inventory of inner armor loot boxes to make room for the 2017 models coming in Lakan's Fury update.

...along with the June 6 date given for both the sale end date and release of Lakan's Fury. Old inner armors are being removed from the store right now, so this discount was your last chance to buy them.

Inner armors have pretty much become a yearly installment, with each year not only having new looks but also slightly improved stats. That doesn't make existing inner armor any worse. The old inner armor stats don't decrease or anything. So with a date and the confirmation that 2017 inner armors were coming today, I don't think there was any secrecy to this sale. I'm not sure how it could have been explained better in the news post, but if you have suggestions please feel free to give them, as it might help for next time TERA has a sale like this.

Hi everyone. Please let me first take a moment to introduce (or -re-introduce) myself. My name is Araya, and I rejoined En Masse about two weeks ago as the Manager of Customer Support. I was with En Masse as the CS Manager from before TERA launched through March of 2016. I jumped at the opportunity to rejoin this amazing company and wonderful people, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to help make your gaming experience better.

At the moment, support for TERA is not where we need it to be. Wait times are FAR longer than acceptable. As of today, we have some tickets that are two weeks old. That’s not alright, and I know that very well. We’re working hard to bring the queue down and good progress has been made recently on that, but I also want to share some of the initiatives En Masse is working on to improve the quality of care that we provide:

- We are bringing on additional support staff. They are in training right now, and will begin contributing to the effort in a week or so. You’ll see some new GM names in the signature lines of ticket responses, and probably in-game from time to time as well.
- We are prioritizing “show-stopper” issues. This means tickets regarding issues that are preventing someone from even being able to get into the game are getting a higher priority than other issues, such as race change costume swaps. When we are more caught up we will go back to a first come / first serve basis for tickets, but for now this is what we decided made the most sense.
- We are streamlining the process of reporting issues in the game to the production staff as well as making sure we’re clear about the impact those issues are having on players.

We want every member of the TERA community, both new as well as veteran, to know that we’re committed to getting support back to the level that you expect from us. In the meantime, we appreciate your patience and understanding.

Everlasting Mobstopper!

I liked it personally, but I'm also glad we changed it to something more badass sounding

Are those even still a thing?

Business or pleasure?

Business. I'm not going, but those that are going are often attending various events like E3 to meet with developers, and possibly even discover new titles that are looking for a publisher.

Sorry but we won't have an official booth or presence there. Just a few members of the staff are going on business.

i have submitted 2, one for not getting the emp, and one for the refund. i purchased through debit card.

Mind PMing me your ticket number?

Here's a GM event I held in June 2016. Eldermeow was a confused old man roaming TERA, asking players for assistance. Those who stopped were told broken memories from Eldermeow's past. The memories were hints at where and how to jog his memory. It turns out that clues were scattered across TERA from the old man's journeys, and that he'd slowly forgotten who he was.

As players located the clues, Eldermeow slowly regained his past and remembered that he was actually an ancient king. His crown had been stashed away within his pack the entire time!


Once Eldermeow's past was revealed, he once again donned his crown and rewarded his subjects with a special Kingly ceremony.

thanks for the codes. for some reason I cant get twitch videos to play anymore. I miss being able to watch the tera stream

That's weird. Have you tried different browsers? Sometimes HTML5 acts up for me in Chrome and I have to switch to something else.

Is enmasse going to release a LINUX version?

No plans to do that at the moment, no.

@Spacecats
Why FWC and not CS which has the bonuses?...

Typically I can get more FWC matches in one stream though. Let's mix it up, though! I'll get a CS match in today as well.

I cracked up when I got to that one.

the backend people must have done some things?

No. I wish I could say our Ops crew put on their tactical harnesses, repelled down the side of the data center, and cracked open the Gibson to reroute server data (that's how it works right?)...

... but no changes were made on our end. It could be that your ISP or some link in the chain between your ISP and our server had some extra heavy traffic which went away, or was rerouted. Glad to know the extra latency was temporary.

Yes for some reason being in a party can occasionally mess with the drops. We've even heard people say that their drop will appear in front of their party member instead of them. It's something that's difficult to reproduce because it doesn't happen every time.

Join me in Fraywind Canyon! Starting today at 3 p.m. PDT, I'll be playing on my Valkyrie and hopping in the queue. If you aren't able to join in-game, make sure you stick around the chat channel for raffle prizes and the weekly viewer reward code.

See you there! https://www.twitch.tv/enmasseentertainment
