Class Changes

Class Changes #12 by Yosha

New Items

There’s a new equippable item, the circlet.  It goes in the head slot of your profile, and any cosmetic item previously in that slot has been moved to the costuming tab. 

Circlets offer Defense and Balance modifiers, and affect your item level.

They drop in Ruinous Manor (all), Broken Prison, Lilith’s Keep (Hard), Shadow Sanguinary (Hard), Sky Cruiser Endeavor (Hard), Harrowhold, and the Civil Unrest zone.

Also available from battleground reputation stores.

Included in equalized gear sets for battlegrounds.

We’ve added a way for you to enhance existing noctenium infusions.

An Uncommon Noctenium Refiner (available from Vanguard Initiative Quartermasters for 700 credits) condenses 400 Noctenium Infusions into an Uncommon Noctenium Elixir.

An Uncommon Noctenium Elixir increases a skill’s noctenium effect by 50%, and increases all skill damage for 10 minutes, during which time Noctenium Infusions are not consumed.

The effects of an Uncommon Noctenium Elixir are cancelled when entering a battleground.

Additionally, Noctenium Infusions no longer increase PvP Attack/Defense. 

Accessory Resizing

You can now improve the stats of high-end accessories, using a Resizing kit.

Manor, Estate, Blubred, and Landsheart necklaces.

Manorborne, Estateborne, Blurbred, and Landsheart rings and earrings.

A resized accessory’s start and random options get a slight upgrade.

You may equip two resized accessories with the same name, but they are not tradeable, and still bound to the original character.

Dragon Scales

We’ve added a new reward type to Vanguard Requests.

Dragon Scales can be exchanged at the Dragon Scale shop for Hardening Dragon Eggs, Health Potions, and Bravery Potions.

Using a Hardening Dragon Egg randomly gives you either an Iron Dragon or Crimson Dragon skill manual, or a Dragon Claw.

You can convert 8 Dragon Claws into a Mysterious Dragon Egg, which generates either an Iron Dragon or Crimson Dragon skill manual.

Guild Changes

We’ve made several changes to guild quests, the guild UI, and Civil Unrest: Velika.

The guild UI now displays the offline time of guild members.

We’ve added circlets and accessory resizing kits to Civil Unrest mobs.

Rally quests now randomly appear throughout the day, and are no longer “first come, first served.” We’ve also changed them so that they may be abandoned.

Harrowhold

We’ve made some balance adjustments to our signature 30-player raid. In addition to overall play balance, we’ve:

Reduced the range of Vergos’ gaze pattern in phases 2 and 4.

Changed the Flame/Dust pattern in phase 3 so that either element can appear at random.

Additionally, the changes to the warrior’s Edge generation mean that Velik’s Blessing no longer enhances Scythe.

Bug Fixes

New Dungeon: The Broken Prison

The Broken Prison is a new 5-person, level 65 dungeon that takes players into Lakan's Prison to investigate some mysterious activity...and a possible escape. 

Required level: 65

Minimum Item Level: 417 (for instance matching)

Entry teleportal located in the southwest corner of Deva Silver, in Oblivion Woods

Entry Limit: 1 per day (Elite: 2 per day)

Bosses: Gorgoth, Molek, Balbatos

Loot: alkahests, designs and materials for Imperator and Ambush sets; designs and materials for Quatrefoil Brooch; Manorborne and Estateborne accessories; Tier 10 enchanting materials.

The Broken Prison features seven new achievements.

Dungeon Updates: Harrowhold

We've made a few adjustments to this raid:

Players can no longer use Goddess’s Blessings in Harrowhold.

We have adjusted Vergos to be more challenging.

Quests

We made various improvements and refinements to Vanguard quests and quest tracking:

When players hit level 65, the quest tracker automatically resets, leaving just the three highest-priority quests.

Players no longer automatically acquire the following early level 65 zone quests: Etching to Get Started, Hands with Many Hats, Engineering the Outcome, Friends of the Family.

We added an item level requirement (item level 417) to the story quest Wrath of Dragons.

For PvP servers, we removed the quest ‘The Outlaw.’ Players can still learn the Outlaw Declaration skill directly from Skill UI upon reaching level 65.

We removed special battleground Vanguard Quests.

Items:

We made a minor improvement to a couple of loot boxes:

We updated the Monarch's Treasure Chest and Prince's Treasure Chests from Tier 5 alkahests to Tier 6 alkahests.

Guilds

We reduced the Guild-versus-Guild declaration fee and penalty:

We reduced the declaration fee from 50 percent to 300/900/1,500 guild funds (for small/medium/large guilds).

We reduced the penalty by 66 percent (2/3) to 5/15/25 guild funds per hour (for small/medium/large guilds).

Battlegrounds

We made some changes to Kumas Royale:

Kumas Royale is now two separate battlegrounds: one for players from level 20-64, and one for level 65 players.

The level 20-64 Kumas Royale equalizes all players to level 65.

We changed the requirement for kicking a player from a party in Kumas Royale from 80% party agreement to 100%.

UI Changes

We made a change to the TERA UI:

You can now change the Raid Party UI size, by going to Options > UI Settings > Scale Combat Elements > Raid Parties.
