Tera, the free-to-play MMORPG from En Masse Entertainment and Bluehole Studios dropped new info (courtesy of Steparu) about the latest class coming to the Korean version of the game and yes...the class is race locked, this time to the Elin.

Judging from the video, the Shinobi class wields a very big shuriken-like weapon and darts in and out of combat sneaking in close to land a few hard strikes then jumping out of the fray to throw a few abilities from a safe distance. The ears flopping around is a nice touch.

While no official release for the class in the Western version of the game has been announced, if previous new class timelines are used as a guide, the Shinobi should make its US debut in about 5 months. That would put the US class release around June.

Game has been F2P for over 2 years now, people who rage at gender/race locked new classes should consider that making each new class available for every of the 6 races would mean a lot of work in textures and animations, that is time-money to spend that probably the microtransactions cant cover for, compared to subscription or b2p games. BHS didnt have a publisher for south Korea till just a few weeks back when Nexon took over, and with Elin being the MOST POPULAR race for the Asia region, that should appeal to that playerbase.

This is getting ridiculous, the amount of race and gender locked classes is already unacceptable, it's starting to feel like a money grab of classes not actually finished lazy assholes only doing a couple sets of armors
