En Masse Entertainment has announced the release date for their new MMO Tera set to launch on May 1st, 2012. Tera is a beautiful new MMO with unique character races and twitched-based combat system. Where not only your moves but your accuracy accounts for your damage,  being fast at dodging and rolling can assist you in avoiding your opponents attacks. There isn’t a lock on targeting system like in WoW or Everquest, so playing an archer is almost like playing a third-person shooter where you have to strafe and shoot. When you have your sights on a target you can stream moves into them, but you have to be quick and make sure you keep your eye on them.  Buy Star Wars Credits，In Tera you can set up Skill Combos so that when you use a move it triggers another skill or move which you can hit the same hotkey and chain them together. Rather than having to fill up your keyboard with hotkeys you can essentially set up so each key can use a move one after another. This also strengthens moves and allows for unique interactions. Due to this En Masse is also allowing those who love counsel gaming to map their moves to  Xbox controllers (and possibly support more, but haven’t released more details on it yet).

Tera looks like a fresh faced paced MMO that will be a nice change of pace for those looking for a new style of combat. While still maintaining core PvE group experiences and extending that into large scale balanced PvP scenarios. My only concern is while briefly looking over the race specific bonuses they seem to be very inconsistant and almost to specific to either PvE or PvP to be balanced. For example the Aman receive “Stranger to Pain”: When under 30% HP, all damage taken is reduced by 10%. Along with “Blood of Dragons”: Resistance to DoT effects is increased by 10. Which is overall, amazing. While the Elin race only can swim faster and gather plants faster than other races. Then there are the races that have almost too specific bonuses such as the humans who take less PvP damage when under 30% HP (which everyone who pvps will take either Aman or Humans). And Barakas who’s Stamina does not fall below 20% while adventuring (assuming PvE). Hopefully these are rebalanced before launch, otherwise it will be more of a race war when it comes to specific activities. We will see if this is addressed, otherwise we will still have a solid MMO in the wake of WoW, Eve, SwTor, and soon to be D3.

Buy Star Wars Credits，The game currently is in it’s Beta testing and is four patches deep.  They are continuing to work on balancing the beginning questing experience. This also includes balancing the world PvP. Those griefing will be marked with an Outlaw marking (Infamy points that deteriate over time) which notifies other players to engage in PvP with them. Tera also has the unique guild vs guild pvp setting where you can wage a 24 hour war against another guild for rankings and riches (it costs 30,000g to declare war to begin with).
