Oh wow check this out, 50 channels. That is why I am not seeing that many people, keeping us all seperate.
I figured out that the opening, character select screens aren't that great to benchmark. The select server screen alone gets 95% gpu, but when I get into the game my new settings generally get between 50%-65% gpu.
New Nvidia Inspector Settings 8xMSAA, 4x SS, 16x AF
Level 10 Slayer General. I get my pre-order mount at level 11.

I found a custom MSAA and AF guide for Tera, I guess the in game AA is unoptimized and just blurs textures. AF will make the textures really sharp.
This picture should really be bigger or more zoomed in, but if you look closely you can see that the in game AA screenshot the textures are really blurry. Compare it to No AA or with the Nvidia forced AA and it should be obvious.
