TERA Online is the First True Action MMORPG taking players into a mystifying world of Arborea. Here’s a Gamescom 2010 trailer:
Featuring in the demo gameplay are 8 classes taking on BAMs (Big Ass Monsters). One of the most prominent classes in demo is the TERA Lancer defending against vicious monsters.
TERA LANCER
Equipped with an almost impenetrable shield and a lance extending far to keep monster away, the TERA Lancer is truly a formidable opponent to be reckoned with. The Lancer is one of the best tanking classes in the game with high defence and agrro drawing shouts. With a durable tank such as the Lancer, other classes can easily head into the fray of battle. Warriors can cause close combat damage, Sorcerers can cast spells from afar while Priests heal the party or revive fallen allies. The Lancer does it all. However, like all tanking classes in most MMO’s, the only drawback the Lancer suffers is agility. Of course it makes sense; heavy armor hinders movement. Though, its really unlikely players will be in a pinch with the Lancer’s high defences and durable armor.
If the Lancer isn’t for you, you can always check out the TERA Sorcerer Guide, TERA Warrior Guide and TERA Priest Guide if tanking is not your style. Check TERA Online Manual for the inside detail of TERA Online.
