Anything to be said about the caster classes? Any of them good for soloing?

[Loveless]

Sorcerer is the only real caster in the game. Once you get Fireblast (main AoE) and Mana Barrier (absorbs dmg) you can solo things very easily. Still pretty easy getting there just have to be a bit more careful.

Then there are the two supports, the Priest and Mystic. The Priest is your big healer and the Mystic may not have huge heals but they provide great support and probably the most preferred healer for skilled groups with their crit aura (increases crit rate by 100%)

Healing in this game is actually fun. You move around avoiding bosses while casting heals which you lock-on. While at lower levels you may be purely healing... in end-game dungeons you play crucial roles in parties such as providing MP support, buffs, and usually the key person in boss mechanics.

Priest is easy to solo level while the Mystic may want a leveling partner.

This is our group doing the end-game instance, this was our first kill. It's from a Sorcerer POV and he's got his rotations down. He doesn't have his best disc yet but the damage is there.

There's the Lancer (me), Sorcerer, Slayer, Warrior and Priest in this one.

WhyT_T. I like point and click. I just dont understand how you can be moving while casting spells easily.

I'd feel safe assuming that taking the easy factor out is the intention. It is much more engaging than your standard point and click, which is very lack luster - especially in PvP.

i can login at the game website, but not at the launcher. it keeps saying user authentication failed

[Loveless]

Log off at site then try again.

I'm looking at their FAQ and the person who had the problem signed up at the EU site. So just make sure you made the account for NA TERA. You've authenticated whatever you needed to via e-mail and try again?

signed up at https://account.enmasse.com
and still having the same problems
the launcher sends me to that link to create an account too

and i already verified my account through my email
):

[Loveless]

If you are able to log in at the website then I would suggest trying live chat when it goes up again tomorrow and see what they can do. Might be some longer queues because of it going F2P but they've been really good whenever I had to go through them.

alright will do that, thanks for the help

I lag too much, especially in town T_T

[Loveless]

Town are pretty bad especially now that there's a lot of people. For leveling I'd recommend just switching channels.

Also Google "TERA optimization" to tweak your graphics card settings if you can.
