Ok, I'm downloading the game right now and I have couple more questions after some reading on their site. There seem to be racial skills, are they of any significance, or more like tiny extra things? Since I'm kinda interested in doing pvp sooner or later, and humans seem to have passive to take less damage in pvp? Also, which server would you recommend to start with on NA version? Thanks.

Picked this up 2 weeks ago, only playing on the weekends though, so not getting many hours in. Made it to level 25 and I must say I'm really enjoying it so far. It's not nearly as grind heavy as I expected, it's fast paced, you're constantly on the move and I like the dodge mechanic a lot more than say gw2's.

Dealing with the fat demons that remind me of pudge and large dragonkin now. Supposed to party them but honestly, it's fun to solo them 0_o Playing a Slayer.

This download is ridiculously stupid. I have tried with and without P2P and it's over 5 hours. I don't use 75 mb/s internet to get this shitty download time.

Edit: Oh hey it decided to start working... for now.

Yeah the download was a bit slow at some spots and I have a 100 mb/s university internet.

Since someone said that there a guild in Tempest representing TL, I decided to make a lancer there.

Can't find the streaming download on their website right now but I'm in class.. I got it from their main page a day or two ago. It downloaded the first 2Gb and I was able to play right away and continued to download the rest in the background..

Just picked up this game recently and I got a small question. Would you guys recommend doing dungeons runs or questing for leveling up quickly?

Questing is definitely faster for leveling. There are usually multiple quests you can pick up for each dungeon so it isn't a bad idea to run them at least once. The main quest also requires you to run most dungeons.

Wait a second. Is TERA completely free-to-play now, or is the subscription fee just removed?

It's free to play apparently. I just downloaded it randomly last night after seeing this thread and started playing lol.

Oh and is there any way that I can make the font bigger? I have a 15 inch monitor... 1280x1024(?) resolution... and the text hurts my eyes.

You can scale the game UI under the options menu. You can also change the chat text size - right click on the chat box and go to options.
