TERA Talks About The New Gear Progression System
Over the past couple of weeks, TERA has been revealing bits and pieces of the upcoming Arsenal Update. The most recent revelation is the introduction of Gear Progression into the game. Here’s how it works:
“Arsenal's enchant and upgrade system features four new sets of gear. Using enchanting materials acquired from dungeons, battlegrounds, world bosses and quests, you'll enchant each set to its maximum bonus (+6 or +9), then upgrade it to the next set as follows:
Guardian +6 to Twistshard +0
Twistshard +9 to Frostmetal +0
Frostmetal +9 to Stormcry +0
To assist in the enchant and upgrade process, we’ve also introduced Item XP. When completing a Vanguard request wearing a piece of Twistshard or higher gear, you'll earn Item XP for all eligible gear equipped on your character. Item XP significantly increases the chance of enchanting or upgrading an item.”
Players will get a complete Guardian gear set upon completing the level 65 quest “Fresh Arms – and Legs” to help them get started. Enigmatic Scroll/Identification Scroll cycles will also be retired in favor of the new gear system.
Community Manager Douglas Trickle gives a brief explanation of the Gear Progression update in the video after the break. You can also head over to the TERA official site for more info.
