    i've been following pretty close for about a month and have heard nothing about one. are you getting it confused with TSW's vanity items shop?

    I've got the straight edge.

    None at all, it's been out in Korea for over a year with a standard P2P subscription and no plans of a cash shop have been displayed by the Devs.

    Are you thinking about Chronoscrolls ?


    You will be able to buy these items from EME and sell them for in game gold. You can buy these for game time. Kinda the same way Plex works for EVE.

    You can read more about it here

    Nope no item mall.  The only thing they will charge you besides sub fee are.

    1.  Server transfers (free for the first three months).

    2. Chronoscrolls = Plex.

    3. Race change.

    Velika: City of Wheels: Among the mortal races, the humans were the only one that never built cities or great empires; a curse laid upon them by their creator, Gidd, forced them to wander as nomads for twenty centuries...

    Without listing your sources this is nothing but teenage schoolgirl gossip, not even a rumor

    Anyone notice this mmoexposed guy creates topics that try and draw controversy, then doesn't post in it again.

    He can't list his sources because he has a thing about BS and attention seeking.

    Take everything he says as a pinch of salt.

    Yeah, not much exposing in that. :)

    I must say that so far is TERA surprisingly fun... But that is me getting 9 levels.
