TERA Online

[spypet]

so i played test.4 usa this weekend, and studied boxing potential and here is what i can report;once fully installed and patched the game sequence seems to run as follows;(what happens when you run each file directly)

c:\games\tera\tera-launcher.exe (loads launcher, launcher loads updater(as needed) then game)
calls
c:\games\tera\client\tl.exe (can't fine ssnl)
calls
c:\games\tera\client\binaries\tera.exe (you must run game with launcher)

so as you can see, with 2 full copies of game, you can't simply run this twice even with 2 accounts. my guess is the only way you can come close to boxing this is running 2 virtual machines on same PC or 2 PC's each running 1 game over a LAN joined to the same router then ISP modem - cumbersome.




after playing game for nearly 12 hours, it's very quest intensive, so you run around game map a lot.this makes boxing less relevant, since boxing is most profitable if you need camp a spot and kill stuff. also various buffs seem to last 5-10 minutes, so if you want to XP a buffer to box, it will be difficult to grind her without questing her too. i'm not sure if any magic alts has a sort of summoning skill where you can bring your buffer and/or healer to your location as needed, but regardless, i think you'll be better off simply joining and active guild - then bothering to box here. so, sorry to put a kibosh on boxing hopes for this game, but i just don't see a easy solution or acute need for it with Tera Online.
