Elin – MMO Fallout

TERA has launched patch 26.04 today, introducing players to the brand new Reaper class. The Reaper is a mid-range DPS class that is unique to the Elin race and uses leather armor and a new scythe weapon. In addition to the new class, reapers also begin their journey on the new special starting area, Ashen Hope. Ashen Hope sees the destruction of Pora Elinu and will have reaper characters start at level 50 in this tutorial area. After completing Ashen Hope, players will return to the main world to play with their friends.

In order to unlock the reaper class, players must have one character on that server that is at least level 40. You can find more details at the link below.

I feel bad for not noticing this sooner, but in my defense neither did any of the other major MMO news websites. On November 25th, Tera Today published an interview with Bluehole Studios on some upcoming updates in 2014 to the Korean service. Alongside a rookie server where players will be able to ease into the game as well as level up a bit faster, TERA will also be enjoying the release of a new class. The class is specific to the Elin race, a powerful mid-range damage dealer, although Bluehole is not saying that the class will never be available to othe races. According to the interview, developing new animations for each race takes approximately eight months.

You can check out the entire interview at the link below to read more about additional updates coming to KTera, and hopefully followed by other regions.
