The TERA Online site has been updated with new screens and information about the game's centaurs. The fey forest dwellers are four-footed warriors proficient with spears and a deadly hoof attack. The protectors of nature are currently allied with those in an uprising against loggers.

Overview

  • Name: Centaurs
  • Ecology: Fey Forest
  • Attacks: Spear attack, hoof attack
  • Defenses: Will sidestep to either direction to avoid incoming attacks. Will leave combat area to solicit help from nearby faeries and other centaurs.
  • Weaknesses: Can only attack within three meters of their target.

Background

Excerpt from Wildlife of Arun by Rakul

The centaurs of Fey Forest are a small, perhaps vanishing, species. They are stewards of nature and keepers of lore. Even the baraka consult them on matters of faerie history and culture. Until recently, they lived quietly in western Arun, protecting and defending the natural life of their forest home, even the redcaps, for whom they have little patience or affection.

The centaurs are presently allied with the fey creatures of northwestern Arcadia province in an uprising against woodcutters, whose drastic logging practices are in danger of denuding the forest in order to fulfill lumber orders from Velika. They are a danger to any who wander close enough to attract their notice, and will attack without provocation.

Tactics

Centaurs attack with spears and hooves, with the hoof attack being the more powerful of the two. If attacked from range, they will close the distance between them and their foe, at which time they’re vulnerable to attack without the ability to retaliate until they get within three meters.

The centaur will rear up slightly just before performing either attack, but as very little time elapses between the two, the wise fighter will always work to stay out of hoof and spear range, and take advantage of the centaur's occasional retreat for help to attack them from behind.
