As for Gold it seemed to be okay, although it was noted that it is difficult to judge without a real live in-game economy.
The results revealed that dell'FGT classes require an additional balance to enable the creation of specialized roles for all, but leave at the same time the opportunity to play solo. In this version pre-beta TERA most popular classes are the warrior and sorcerer. The favored races but had a wider range of variation between Aman Castanic, High Elf and poporo.
