I'll say that just about every time it happened, I didn't see it coming. That's also the reason that it's hard for me to even tell you what classes did it to me. All I ever noticed was instantly dying and immediately getting frustrated because of it.
Since a couple of you have avoided insulting me and instead explained it to me, it reminded me of this: The first time it happened to me was from a ranger near/same level as me and my friend started explaining that it was a charge up skill that I didn't know about and could've avoided it if I would've known what rangers do. So I was fine with that but once we got higher up and the one-shotters happened more often, I just got extremely frustrated.
Also for anyone still wondering, I was playing a slayer and loved it in pvp.
I feel for you, being one shotted blows and a few of the people here feel the need to insult instead of actually thinking/conversing. With that said, you pretty much answered your own question/concern about it. True pvp really should be about practice, knowing your enemies, and being smart enough to know each situation. I'm guessing you really don't have all that much experience with the game and if you ever did give the game a chance, you'd get better and the one shot'd hits would almost cease to happen. I honestly never tried the game, just adding my 2 cents into what I've seen on videos and researched. Still might try this game, but who knows.
Again its not a issue if your the same lvl, yes when youre off by few lvls its like 10 lvl.... idk why the dev team made it that way its kinda is what is it. Upside is with the lvling speed its not so bad, because you pretty much all catch up relativly quicky. When your at the same lvl there is no 1 shooting at all, closest thing you get is archer's fully charge shoot at healers and sorc because well they are suppose to be squishy. but if you pay attention its not hard to dodge those shoots. I pvp various different type of class and player and man pratice matter so much. Against people with no pratice i litterally just spam my attacks and i end up killing them w/o ever blocking and taking almost no dmg, honestly i don't even know how that worked because i like holding left click and using skill yet never got hit. Against people who have experience i have to move around and block much more, i also have to watch what skill i use to mange my mana. Against every skill player will i'm getting toyed around, i pretty much miss a lot and they rape me pretty hard Q_Q getting better though need more pratice. And group pvp is WAY different, so much fun ^_^

Thanks for understanding where I'm coming from on this issue. You should give the game a try, I'm already ready for the CBT 4 event, since some of the people in this post brought up valid points. I'm willing to continue to try the game out because it is better than a tab target system game (which I've grown to hate in MMO's and I think real action combat is the future). I still believe getting one shotted is ridiculous and shouldn't be a part of any MMO, but again I'm willing to try and look past it and go another round in the game.

This is my complaint with the pvp, I would understand more if the one shotting was happening if I was 10 levels under someone else. But that's just not the way it is and it really is a bummer that the devs have "balanced" it this way.
I've been telling people for months that gear and enchants mean more in this game then "skill". You can still be one shotted at max level if your gear isn't enchanted high enough. But yeah, your a bad player cause you're not max geared while LEVELING, seriously? I swear the excuses made by fans of this game gets funnier all the time. Duck Hunt PvP is not skill no matter how much the fans tell you otherwise.

Well i think the reason is that the dev team kinda designed it where PvP is really a end game kind of thing, where people do it when they are capped. Thats why lvl speed is pretty fast, it works for Koreans since well they focus on lvling first, but here in the west people like to try things out. Also pk isn't as big of a deal in korea, unlike us they don't like random pking, they discourge it in fact so they normally don't have this issue because almost all rights are consentsual. Which is why there is no pvp and pve server in korea. But i do think the dev team need to take it in to consideration, i mean if its 1 lvl off from a new set of gears, than yes it makes sense if there is a large gap because well its a entire new set of gear, but with in the same set there shouldn't be so much difference. Hey if enough people request EME to do it than we might just get it, so far EME done a great job at getting changes just for us.

No.... if your same lvl enchanting won't matter as much, i got full +0 blue 27 gear and i can still beat my friend who has full gold and most of them +4-6 with a +7 sword. So when your on the same lvl the enchant helps but skill still matter hella lot more. If your different lvl than thats a different story.

lol and they can't be bias as well? lol not going to lie here but lot of people do like to blame their losses on something, my personal experience is that when your same lvl in same lvl gear, skill out weights any enchantments. Its my view from my personal exerience so believe what you will i guess, can only offer my opinion.

You seem to be missing the key factor in all this. People are being one shotted. It has nothing to do with skill or any kind of poor excuse you can make up. TERA is a game that doesn't require much to be able to one shot people. But as long as people believe fans that only go "well, it never happened to me so it never happens." then just expect a bunch of people to be dropping the game. Just more faults that fans would rather ignore then have fixed.

Yes i know people are been 1 shooted when there is a lvl gap, i stated that already it is an issue with the game with 3 lvl difference feel like 10+. However i'm stating if they were on equal lvl, than skill trumps gear.

There was a quite extensive review from a player posted on the official forums before the website revamp who played the game for nine months and claimed with evidence that at max level vs someone who has fully enchanted gear and you do not, you will be one shotted. Which also had statements from other players that gave similar claims, so, I am more enclined to believe that person since this review wasn't a negative one. This guy had no agenda nor was he quitting the game but he did state that fact and I will believe it. If people choose to ignore this and say that it never happens or that skill always trumps gear when it comes to max level then it's for them to find out the hard way.

That actually sounds very familiar, where have i heard that one before? Oh yeah, when people were defending EA's launch of SWTOR. yeah i agree with you, just because one person out of millions doesn't experience something doesn't mean it doesn't exist or doesn't happen to thousands of players everyday.

What's wrong Sector13, GW2 section getting a little too boring for you? Why do you make such comments when in fact you don't even play the dam game! How the hell do you know? where is your experence? Do you care to match your knowledge of tera with mine or do you wish to believe any noob that QQ's on these forums as fact.
We all know you prefer GW2 over Tera, and thats fine. But if you want to make a statement like the one above then I suggest you HIT MAX CAP then come back and comment about your experence. Because as it stands now you don't know jack.

Interesting, wish i can find that post. However my guild also has good 10+ people that play KTera that have stated other wise, so i guess we wait till launch and test it out and see.

It's a common fan response to people who claim anything bad that happened to them when playing game. Samething will happen in TSW, GW2, D3 and so on ... fan mentality never changes.

You, sir, need to clam down. In your fan rage you obviously didn't read all the posts properly though I find it funny that you think you know anything about me cause of what I say on here but whatever helps you feel better in ignoring people's actually issues with the game instead of you know.. fixing them.

I would link it but the official forums got wiped after the revamp as far as I was aware. If I find it posted on other sites then I will link it to you.

Thanks, ya sucks they wiped the old site. Wish they at least kept an archieve of the posts.
I can see it being possible getting 1 shotted in this game so maybe I was wrong. If you get hit by a classes most powerful skill then sure but I stand by my statement that its your fault. This is not a game where you stand face to face watching dice rolls. You are in total control of what happens. If you aim / time correctly you will hit your oppenent, if you move / evade you will not get hit by your opponent. This simple rule is what TERA's combat is all about and its what makes it special. Did you not fight mobs and try to get perfect victorys? I sure as hell did and will continue to do so. Learn the game people.

And you bring out the best in me ;P because you see I have played the game to max cap with every melee class in the game and you sir have not. I was playing and testing the game while you were watching video's and reading post on forums by random people.
Can a max player with standared tier12 gear get 1 shotted by someone with +12 tier12 gear....NO.
Can the same player with standard gear beat a +12 tier12 player....NO, but that is to be expected.
Do people over exaggerate on forums...yes.
Sector you wish to believe that tera has no skill and you are welcome to believe that if you wish, but the people that has played tera extensively knows otherwise.

So, why should I believe you over him? How do I know you're not the one who is over exaggerating? The guy whose been desperately defending this game who has more of a reason to like in comparison to another guys personal review that gained nor lost anything by posting his opinions? Your statements are no different then anyone elses no matter how much you claim it cause even if it's true then am I to guess that you did tests personally to test the differences in damage between enchants? am I to believe that you did extensive research on the skill vs gear comparison? Or am I most likely to believe that you're another "it never happened to me so it never happens" fan like I stated before? So, yeah, you can claim anything you want against my opinion but it doesn't mean anything when you compare them. It's just that you wasted more money then I did. =P

He doesn't have to prove anything to anyone, he is merely supplying his experience, if you choose to think of his opinion as not worth your time then so be it, the rest of us shall measure it by its own merits.
Which for what its worth, I'd stake my money on his opinion.

not impressed by the vid - id rather go back to warhammer or play rift imo
Again its not a issue if your the same lvl, yes when youre off by few lvls its like 10 lvl.... idk why the dev team made it that way its kinda is what is it. Upside is with the lvling speed its not so bad, because you pretty much all catch up relativly quicky. When your at the same lvl there is no 1 shooting at all, closest thing you get is archer's fully charge shoot at healers and sorc because well they are suppose to be squishy. but if you pay attention its not hard to dodge those shoots. I pvp various different type of class and player and man pratice matter so much. Against people with no pratice i litterally just spam my attacks and i end up killing them w/o ever blocking and taking almost no dmg, honestly i don't even know how that worked because i like holding left click and using skill yet never got hit. Against people who have experience i have to move around and block much more, i also have to watch what skill i use to mange my mana. Against every skill player will i'm getting toyed around, i pretty much miss a lot and they rape me pretty hard Q_Q getting better though need more pratice. And group pvp is WAY different, so much fun ^_^
Whats stopping you?
Thanks for understanding where I'm coming from on this issue. You should give the game a try, I'm already ready for the CBT 4 event, since some of the people in this post brought up valid points.

Well i think the reason is that the dev team kinda designed it where PvP is really a end game kind of thing, where people do it when they are capped. Thats why lvl speed is pretty fast, it works for Koreans since well they focus on lvling first, but here in the west people like to try things out. Also pk isn't as big of a deal in korea, unlike us they don't like random pking, they discourge it in fact so they normally don't have this issue because almost all rights are consentsual. Which is why there is no pvp and pve server in korea. But i do think the dev team need to take it in to consideration, i mean if its 1 lvl off from a new set of gears, than yes it makes sense if there is a large gap because well its a entire new set of gear, but with in the same set there shouldn't be so much difference. Hey if enough people request EME to do it than we might just get it, so far EME done a great job at getting changes just for us.
No.... if your same lvl enchanting won't matter as much, i got full +0 blue 27 gear and i can still beat my friend who has full gold and most of them +4-6 with a +7 sword. So when your on the same lvl the enchant helps but skill still matter hella lot more. If your different lvl than thats a different story.
I've heard otherwise and I'm more enclined to believe them then someone with obvious bias.
lol and they can't be bias as well? lol not going to lie here but lot of people do like to blame their losses on something, my personal experience is that when your same lvl in same lvl gear, skill out weights any enchantments. Its my view from my personal exerience so believe what you will i guess, can only offer my opinion.
You seem to be missing the key factor in all this. People are being one shotted. It has nothing to do with skill or any kind of poor excuse you can make up. TERA is a game that doesn't require much to be able to one shot people. But as long as people believe fans that only go "well, it never happened to me so it never happens." then just expect a bunch of people to be dropping the game. Just more faults that fans would rather ignore then have fixed.
Yes i know people are been 1 shooted when there is a lvl gap, i stated that already it is an issue with the game with 3 lvl difference feel like 10+. However i'm stating if they were on equal lvl, than skill trumps gear.
There was a quite extensive review from a player posted on the official forums before the website revamp who played the game for nine months and claimed with evidence that at max level vs someone who has fully enchanted gear and you do not, you will be one shotted. Which also had statements from other players that gave similar claims, so, I am more enclined to believe that person since this review wasn't a negative one. This guy had no agenda nor was he quitting the game but he did state that fact and I will believe it. If people choose to ignore this and say that it never happens or that skill always trumps gear when it comes to max level then it's for them to find out the hard way.
That actually sounds very familiar, where have i heard that one before? Oh yeah, when people were defending EA's launch of SWTOR. yeah i agree with you, just because one person out of millions doesn't experience something doesn't mean it doesn't exist or doesn't happen to thousands of players everyday.
What's wrong Sector13, GW2 section getting a little too boring for you? Why do you make such comments when in fact you don't even play the dam game! How the hell do you know? where is your experence? Do you care to match your knowledge of tera with mine or do you wish to believe any noob that QQ's on these forums as fact.
We all know you prefer GW2 over Tera, and thats fine. But if you want to make a statement like the one above then I suggest you HIT MAX CAP then come back and comment about your experence. Because as it stands now you don't know jack.

Interesting, wish i can find that post. However my guild also has good 10+ people that play KTera that have stated other wise, so i guess we wait till launch and test it out and see.
It's a common fan response to people who claim anything bad that happened to them when playing game. Samething will happen in TSW, GW2, D3 and so on ... fan mentality never changes.
You, sir, need to clam down. In your fan rage you obviously didn't read all the posts properly though I find it funny that you think you know anything about me cause of what I say on here but whatever helps you feel better in ignoring people's actually issues with the game instead of you know.. fixing them.
I would link it but the official forums got wiped after the revamp as far as I was aware. If I find it posted on other sites then I will link it to you.
Thanks, ya sucks they wiped the old site. Wish they at least kept an archieve of the posts.
I can see it being possible getting 1 shotted in this game so maybe I was wrong. If you get hit by a classes most powerful skill then sure but I stand by my statement that its your fault. This is not a game where you stand face to face watching dice rolls. You are in total control of what happens. If you aim / time correctly you will hit your oppenent, if you move / evade you will not get hit by your opponent. This simple rule is what TERA's combat is all about and its what makes it special. Did you not fight mobs and try to get perfect victorys? I sure as hell did and will continue to do so. Learn the game people.
And you bring out the best in me ;P because you see I have played the game to max cap with every melee class in the game and you sir have not. I was playing and testing the game while you were watching video's and reading post on forums by random people.
Can a max player with standared tier12 gear get 1 shotted by someone with +12 tier12 gear....NO.
Can the same player with standard gear beat a +12 tier12 player....NO, but that is to be expected.
Do people over exaggerate on forums...yes.
Sector you wish to believe that tera has no skill and you are welcome to believe that if you wish, but the people that has played tera extensively knows otherwise.

i think thats really subjective here, i mean there are some people that are just that bad XD unless its a duo than the time probabbly be too short.
So, why should I believe you over him? How do I know you're not the one who is over exaggerating? The guy whose been desperately defending this game who has more of a reason to like in comparison to another guys personal review that gained nor lost anything by posting his opinions? Your statements are no different then anyone elses no matter how much you claim it cause even if it's true then am I to guess that you did tests personally to test the differences in damage between enchants? am I to believe that you did extensive research on the skill vs gear comparison? Or am I most likely to believe that you're another "it never happened to me so it never happens" fan like I stated before? So, yeah, you can claim anything you want against my opinion but it doesn't mean anything when you compare them. It's just that you wasted more money then I did. =P
He doesn't have to prove anything to anyone, he is merely supplying his experience, if you choose to think of his opinion as not worth your time then so be it, the rest of us shall measure it by its own merits.
Which for what its worth, I'd stake my money on his opinion.
