TERA Reveals A New Tank Class
A new tank class is coming to Bluehole Studio's action-combat MMO TERA. The new class, named the Brawler, is one of several new additions arriving in the game's newest update "Knockout" this December.
Tera's Executive Producer spoke with Gamesbeat about the free-to-play MMO's new Brawler class, explaining how it differs from other MMO tanks saying that, “Traditional MMO tanks tend to grab aggro with taunts and keep mobs focused on them using skills that hold attention but don’t usually deal much damage." He added, "Tanks also tend to stand in one place for long periods of time, soaking up damage while cycling through a series of skills to maintain aggro. It’s a hard job, but it’s not really all that much fun.”
In addition the update will include two new dungeons -- the pirate-themed Kalivan's Dreadnaught, and the Forsaken Island, and new end-game armor.
More information about TERA is available on the official site.

Some say they don't like to watch a dude's ass. Well these games are called mmorpg for a reason. I like to create a male character with looks I like. Get cool skills and armor. It's like your own avatar.
So I don't play female characters unless it's a game like league of legends.
And since Tera came out there are three classes. First is a disaster in my eyes. This game is out for so long and not a single new male class...
This is very annoying, it really bothers me that Devs over see Females tooo much in MMOs as they have the superior class ever or so. Love Tera but please stop with gender locked classes, its old and not so fun. I'm a "Male" and I want to be a male only character.
