What is a dungeon?

TERA's quests and storyline take you on a tour of three continents and hundreds of locations. The most challenging encounters are hidden away behind implacable teleportals. Each requires players to be at the top of their game, because the only ways out are carrying your shield or on it.

Types of Dungeons

Quests involving dungeon content are harder, more rewarding, and altogether more exciting than regular ones. Be it a short encounter with a notable person choosing to remain hidden, or a full-on, evening-long dungeon crawl, these areas are among the best TERA has to offer.

Extended Encounter

This type of dungeon involves story elements too complicated for a simple cutscene, but not as involved as a full dungeon. They typically have no cooldown, and are available to a character until completed.

Instanced Meeting

Sometimes, the person you need to meet isn't interested in casual visitors. These encounters take place in special, quest-specific areas free from prying eyes.

Open Dungeon

These areas are self-contained campaigns capable of supporting multiple groups at the same time. They typically have a high respawn rate, and are a good place to catch up in levels with friends.

Instanced Dungeon

These are the areas too good for just anyone to see. Hard work and dedication are required to complete these deep story experiences. Once started, they rarely repopulate with enemies, and most have a cooldown period for the characters involved.
