Moving this to bug forums. We'll look into this right away and post updates here as they come in. Thanks guys and sorry about the change.

This was brought up in another thread. There are a couple odd differences in the server settings for Fey Forest and we're working to even things out. If you guys notice any other inconsistencies besides the Ace shop and the VG shop please post them.

Congratulations!

Hi GM @Spacecats this might be out of topic but how can I change the public identiy? x)

A mod will need to do it. Please message me.

We're planning things for at least a week if not the whole month of May. It won't just be a single day of celebration.

Okay, yeah those are the same. For some reason there are multiple versions of certain items in the game. I'm pretty sure the one with [Account] in the name comes from BuddyUp rewards. Same effect as the normal expansions.

We're still looking into the issue. Out of curiosity has anyone experienced this issue outside of a dungeon? It might help reproduce it on our test environment.

They should have the same effect. Do you have screenshots?

The Bulwark Camp, more like death camp

Thanks for noting these. I'll pass this on to the TERA team.

I will pay you... in Fed Bills.

To clarify, the letters themselves should be useable IF you have all of them. ( T-E-R-A )
If you don't have ALL of them, they won't be able to be combined, and as Spacecats mentioned, it's unlikely that the letters will be reused.
If they are used again, they'd most likely be assigned different ID's in the system, and wouldn't be able to be used with past letters.

On top of removing the spheres from FF, I want to sincerely apologize for the fact that there was an unkillable death orb there in the first place. I knew it was deadly, but not that it could move. If I'd suspected that it could somehow move or be moved into the camp, I wouldn't have spawned it in the area at all. I unknowingly created a recipe for repeated newbie deaths and I hope it didn't affect too many people before the spheres were removed.

I've deleted quite a bit of content from this thread because of the spreading of misinformation that led to accusations, off-topic comments, finger-pointing, bickering, and a general misunderstanding of what was even happening or what server it was on. The thread devolved into toxic discussion and the airing of several unrelated grievances about the game, the weekly Twitch stream, my role as CM, and several other topics.

Here are a couple things I want to clarify real quick:

• I mentioned the things I spawned during the Friday Twitch stream and said they would be gone after Tuesday maintenance. This was referring to all the objects spawned, and the Twitch stream took place before there were any problems with the rogue death orb.
• Different servers had different things spawned on them. Fey Forest got weird Timescape orbs, stone pillars, and a sign that read "blood for the RNG gods" or something like that. These were spawned just for fun. None of the things spawned were meant to affect gameplay in any way other than being an interesting thing for players to look at (and in Fey Forest's case, a potential one-time sacrifice to the RNG gods in return for future good luck, easily avoided by not walking back up to the motionless orb).
• Some objects in TERA can be spawned and not despawned. In almost every case, the unkillable objects are cosmetic and harmless. The orb CAN be removed and has been removed.

It's no secret that I enjoy spawning things on servers and participating with players as a GM, and despite the issues with the rogue death orb I plan to continue spawning things on servers because I believe it's better to risk an occasional mistake or accident than to become stagnant in my mission to make TERA a fun and interesting place to spend time in.

Doing things like this, being experimental, and being playful is in my nature. Thankfully it has also led to some pretty cool (well... at least I think so) in-game events and community activities since I started at En Masse over a year ago. Sometimes I or other players joke that I just enjoy seeing players die out of pure sadism, but my honest intention is to generate fun game experiences while interacting with the community. As a result of spawning BAMs and other things, players almost always die. While 99% of the time they die fully understanding that TERA is a game where monsters and deadly objects kill players, every once in a while an unfortunate bystander is caught in the crossfire. Again, I'm sorry if anyone's day was ruined while trying to level up their character on FF. If you're one of the people affected please message me here on the forums, describe your experience with the death orb and make sure you provide your character name.

It's gone. Sorry for the inconvenience, FF players. The sphere was spawned quite a ways away from the camp, but it looks like someone figured out how to move it to troll people spawning at Bulwark. I just took this screenshot before removing it, and it looks like someone else already came in and pushed it back away from the camp. In any case now that it's clear the thing can be moved it's safe to say this game object won't be used again.

Thank you for a fun stream Spacecats and Smorceror!

You're welcome! It was really fun seeing all of your characters. I loved it.

Well if your server doesn't win the vote I'll just have to think of something else to come visit you for in order to balance things out

You're a ray of sunshine, Nootiful.

We're actually working really hard for the 5th Anniversary. It will be one to remember!

I made dis.

Not official lore, but just some Valkyrie-themed fun. Each server got something different. AV got a graveyard mourning the slain newbie Valkyries that were sure to fall. There were day-long signs with text but they've all expired. Only the monuments stand now, and they'll be gone with Tuesday maintenance.

There will be a news post early next week.

Time to show off your castanic fashion sense! Today I'll go to three servers to show off player Valkyries, call out participants to strike poses, and show off your sweet new character for those on the stream.

VOTE HERE TO DETERMINE WHICH SERVERS I VISIT.

I'll also be borrowing one of the new games we played during the Glaiveathon. We'll do two rounds of item code hangman, with raffle prizes for those who guess the letters. Just like the Glaiveathon, each hangman word will also be an item code that you can redeem at account.enmasse.com just for tuning in.

The stream begins today at 3 p.m. PDT at twitch.tv/enmasseentertainment

This is tricky to narrow down, but we're looking into possible causes. Thanks for bringing it to our attention guys!

That's not an accurate statement.

I check it, Spacecats checks it, Noesis checks it, Halrath checks it, our lead QA ( Quality Assurance Game Tester ) checks it, as well as others.

Then how come theres still so many of these bugs in the game that remain unfixed? Like all the invisible holes in the map that instantly kill you.

Like this for example, this has been here since I started playing in 2015..... Thats 3 years almost that I've been able to freely jump out of the map at this point.

We report the issues, either as we specifically identify them, or when our players bring them to our attention.

After being reported, issues are prioritized by the Developer (Bluehole Inc).

This means that some things are ultimately determined as being more important or less important than other reported issues, and it's ultimately up to TERA's Developer which they wish to put effort and development into addressing.

Wait, so the titles were for "server first" people? Why isn't that on the page? I'd figure that's some vital info for the rest of us who aren't able to grind our socks off (for whatever reasons) so that we don't end up wasting time chasing a reward that, at that point, may not exist.

This was clarified on already, but essentially the Title is going to be provided to ALL Valkyries that hit the milestones within the deadline.

That being said, it's worth noting that the specific Valkyrie that did reach each leveling Milestone was awarded the Achievement immediately, rather than having to wait for us to manually provide it.

Removed several posts that were steering the conversation off-topic. Please use this thread to talk about the contest.

@CobaltDragon @Spacecats Can't you guys extend for few hours? My friends had trouble getting to 65 because they keep getting bugged/glitched from instance, can't even enter, and they even took leave off their work to aim for 65, I'm sure there's a number of people who got the same problem, coupled with the lags and whatnot, seems kinda heartless when you guys didn't even extend for few hours.

It has been extended from the original deadline to 12pm ( Noon ) which is in 1 hour and 8 minutes.

No. Players who reach the milestones in the first 24 hours will all get the titles.

@Halrath
I arrived at level 65 before 24h but I did not receive the titles ...

I can check into this, but it is my understanding that the players who were not FIRST on the Server, but still hit level 65 in 24 hours will be awarded the Titles manually.

Also, if it's being done manually, I can try to see if we can at least clarify on when we'll start sending them out.

@Halrath
So will it be placed manually ??

As long as your Valkyrie has leveled to the specific Milestones :

Battle Maiden (level 30)
Grim Amazon (level 58)
Dark Raven (level 60)
Fate Weaver (level 65)

Then yes, you will receive the Title(s), and they will be provided manually.

Alec13 wrote: »

If titles will be awarded manually must every person write here that they did it in time and you people to check it and give the titles cos I hit 65 hours ago and I think people want to hit lvl 65 cos of the titles.

No, we will check each Server after the deadline, and all eligible players will receive the titles, most likely applying the Titles in batches ( meaning not done all at once ).

You do not need to post in this Thread and state your Valkyrie is eligible.

Hexblade wrote: »

I'm returning to Tera after some time off. For the new class, like everyone else.

However, on my character select screen I don't have the option to enter a Buddy Up code. Meaning the little banner on the right side is not there. Is this not applicable to me or the Valkyrie for some reason?

Any help is appreciated!

The BuddyUp System will display that little box on the Character Selection Screen ONLY if that specific Server has not be accessed in the last 30-Days.

I believe once you log into that Server ( and hadn't accessed for 30-days ) , there will be a somewhat limited time frame to use the system to select an eligible character ( level 9 or below ) and apply another player's BuddyUp Code.

Yeah, that's a typo. We're not going to be giving out 92 scrolls. We'll fix that. Sorry the error isn't the other way around!

I too would like more outfits for Valkyrie, but i believe that first, the original classes should get the remaining of their weapon skins, which are available in EU TERA and Ktera. We been waiting for over a year for the remaining weapon skins for the original classes to be added, and they still missing. The last we knew about those was that Treeshark was gonna look into it, but with him gone, i doubt anyone at EME even remembers our Fashion Coupon store is highly outdated compared to EU or Ktera.

These items are notorious at this point. I've seen screenshots, but no item names from any version other than the ones NA players have chosen to call them (and not the actual names that appear in the game). If they are in our version somehow, we'll need more than screenshots of what they look like to find them.

As far as Noesis and I know, the costumes added to the store this morning are the only Fashion Store appropriate items in the game right now for that class.

Closing this thread and changed the title. The Valkyrie items are now in the Fashion Coupon store.

Deleted some content from this thread regarding proxies and 3rd party programs. Please remember that discussing these is against the forum rules, and using them violates the TERA Terms of Service.

If you delete your EN.version and Live2-Launcher.version files within your TERA directory, it will force the launcher to check and re-download some files. It may fix your problem. If not, I suggest filling out a support ticket so one of our CS members can help you troubleshoot.

AV, is my server.

Good to know. Did you go into your inventory after you claimed the Extra Slot item?

Okay. Just checked with CS. They said to check your inventory. Claiming an item from Item Claim does not actually "USE" the item. So, check your item and see if it's waiting for you there.

Hint: That's where mine was.

Also, there's another thread for this, so I'm going to close this one down.

Confirmed received fragments. It was a delay as I've suspected.

Sorry for the wait. When a lot of codes are redeemed all at once, the Item Claim can get a little overwhelmed and put things into a delivery queue. Unfortunately that's what I originally thought was happening with some of the earlier item codes, and it turns out they really were borked. I hope the final code with the dragon wings and go-kart helps make up for any missing deliveries.

This is out of the ordinary, and unexpected.

I think some items from the Glaiveathon will have to remain this way. I'll warn people today about it.

No. My birthday was yesterday. No sale.

It's certainly POSSIBLE there will be some sales during the valkyrie release, and similarly during May, our anniversary month.

Stay tuned.
