#

you guys are wild thinking that we'll have enough people for more than one server on aug 4th imo

frigid warren
#

For the most awaitied server opening for like, a year? Yeah I'm expecting at least five thousand. Didnt p2.5 have like, 5k? Or am i misremembering

dawn dagger
#

and p1 was most awaited, then p2, then it was 2.25,2.5 etc. It's just a massive cope. Anyone who was interested in Ashes already played it or watched people playing it. Sorry, testing.

#

And a lot of people didn't get P2 because they were figuring, rightfully so, that there'd be a wipe for P3

#

There's probably a good number of keys bought but it's still gonna be dead as shit

tardy warren
#

P3 will most likely have wipes as well. i do hope ppl realise this as well

lament eagle
#

The only way that changes is if Intrepid is going hard enough this month to set interns on fire

lament eagle
tardy warren
#

well, that's inevitable as well. it is what it is.

torpid hill
#

because the next time there will be a wipe after Aug 4, it'll be called Phase 4 gigglgers

tardy warren
#

Steven said that when they bring up a system, which i forgot what it was, we might expect another wipe

#

doesn't say much but this is what i remember 😄

#

might remember wrong however

torpid hill
#

i think at the current state of the game it's good to have wipes regardless.
fresh starts are one of the most fun parts rn IMO.

#

there is not much to do at max level anyways currently

#

(this might be a hot take tho)

If hes giving us one server good if not roll EU

unless you wanna dodge

dont blame anyone for not wanting to get rolled

Just make the server in Australia, everyone suffers equally.

dawn dagger

tardy warren
#

they should add geolocation verification. ppl from NA should only play on NA. ppl from EU, they can play on which server they want because they bring positive vibes and love

sacred orchid
#

nah i want na come to us to compete peepoSmash

tardy warren
#

oh ok, so you want a separated server, got it

glad abyss

I will not be surprised if they just make a single server again. There’s not much by way of the alpha and I expect it to die off relatively quickly.

custom server prime time Prayge

torpid hill
#

or you mean a primetime that's good for both EU and US?

glad abyss
#

(im sorry oce)

torpid hill
#

Hmmmge that'd probably be much better for EU than US

sacred orchid
#

eh fuck em, their own fault they live in the back end of the world

torpid hill
#

i mean the shared primetime

dawn dagger
#

nah, played enough MMOs where OCE zerged NA servers hard when NA slept. Let OCE feel the pain always

sacred orchid
#

everything else is just cooked

torpid hill
#

yeah but late EU is still workday for US

#

so that'll suck more for US

sacred orchid
#

still

torpid hill
#

as EU i'm all for it tho gigglgers

dawn dagger
#

1 server is bis if Intrepid would just finagle some timing for sieges and what not. Prayge I only have to have 1 server to have chars on next phase too

sacred orchid
#

also US poopers only work from 9 to 5 so they dont work much anyway Smugsit

glad abyss
#

from my understanding rn server is set to west coast prime time (even if im pretty sure steven said that it would be east)

sacred orchid
#

the location is east

#

dunno if he said he would change the time to it

glad abyss
#

so its an east coast server with west coast prime time?

shut fossil
#

Just let us set siege timers within a certain time frame like 7pm-11pm CEST and same for east coast timers akashrug

glad abyss
shut fossil
#

Or just flat earth it then we all have the same timezone

tardy warren
#

i think it like this, multiple servers could potentially help when a big and impactful exploit arises

#

it would also keep the "end game" further away, progressing slower

#

different servers could end up shape differently

#

meaning more mixed data for them

#

but that could be ok if there are enough players for each server. which I think was the case for P1? was that a relative "small success" or servers died quite fast?

shut fossil
#

More servers is just bad the time investment to get anywhere and the speed at which servers die off will be even faster without a healthy pop

single server is the only way

torpid hill
#

depends on the pop, if they absolutely hit it out of the park with the changes and maybe 1 or 2 bigger streamers start playing then 1 server definitely won't hold all

It would beetle

#

Kaicenat Ashes stream p3 bois, that will get us a server that isnt dead in under a month

torpid hill
#

Pirate might play

tardy warren
#

Pirate would be awesome

#

but because of guild size

#

i don t think he will

#

sadly

torpid hill
#

we'll see NODDERS

dawn dagger
#

pirate playing ashes would most likely have the opposite of the desired effect at this point of his career

noble elk
#

The only big streamer who has any chance of trying who hasn't already would be soda

torpid hill
#

and Quin69 probably

noble elk
#

But he's nowhere near as big as any of those ppl

dawn dagger
noble elk
torpid hill
#

Quin almost played it with P2 but the servers were down on the day he wanted to so he decided to play another game

noble elk
#

Oh nvm then

dawn dagger
#

Quin would quit fairly quick too

noble elk
#

Quin has 5 brain cells he would rage quit in minutes

torpid hill
#

you can say that for any streamer Shruge
until the game is fun enough to hold players there is no point

#

I was just saying that P3 will give us some well needed improvements that might get us closer

noble elk
#

Summit will probably come back for another try at some point

torpid hill
#

i'm not saying it'd be good for the game if big streamers tried it tho gigglgers we still need it to cook some more

noble elk
#

It's not good if they stay

#

It's good if they show up and try it

torpid hill
#

the game is just not good enough to be shown off to the public rn on that scale

dawn dagger
#

Summit and Shroud don't stick around in any MMO they play and really don't get many people to play whatever MMO they're trying

torpid hill
#

I don't stick around in MMORPGs either because they are not good gigglgers they usually say the same thing

#

last MMOs i was into long-term was probably GW2 or Wildstar, nothing since lasted more than a few days

dawn dagger
#

out of current streamers/ex-streamers, the biggest one left playing is Dellor. Do with that info what you will

noble elk
#

Last one I played was 14 but RuneScape is my long term home harrharr

torpid hill
#

FF14 was too single-player/story based for me to enjoy

#

OSRS tho BasedCigar

noble elk
#

Ya as long as you treat it like a single player game it's good.....actually RuneScape is similar in that

#

Single player games where you can sometimes interact with others if you have to

torpid hill
#

yeah RS is also kinda single player, but at least there is no main story

#

I also hate that you can play all jobs with 1 character in FF, that alone is a game breaker for me

noble elk
#

I'm looking for more group focused stuff now though so that's why I'm here

torpid hill
#

I'd never play an MMORPG with that system personally

noble elk
#

Oh I love that part. Not needing to level alts was great

torpid hill
#

i don't like it for RP/Immersion reasons

#

it's definitely convenient

#

same reason why I don't like any account-wide progression

noble elk
#

You have the option though. If you'd rather all your classes be seperate toons you can do that too

torpid hill
#

nah, it breaks my immersion when I see a character playing as a warrior and then they switch to a completely different identity as a mage

#

it's not just myself, it's others

#

i want to think of people as specific roles

noble elk
#

Warrior.......black mage......it's all the same

dawn dagger
#

only needing one character per account is actually the best thing ever

torpid hill
#

it's convenient

#

you are playing an account, not a character at that point gigglgers

#

which is fine if you're into it

dawn dagger
#

I'm immune to the muh immersion arguments

torpid hill
#

i don't have to convince you with this, it's upto taste

#

i'm glad AoC won't have this, and I hope we won't have much account-wide progression either

dawn dagger
#

the way things are heading, won't see a fleshed-out, account-wide corruption system so people will have corruption alts they grief on and then pop on main like how do you do fellow pve gamers 🤣

torpid hill
#

okay corruption i'm fine with Deadge hope we get that account-wide

#

worth the tradeoff for me

dawn dagger
#

btw, it's wild how you're more rp with the immersion than the actual rp guilds

torpid hill
#

yeah i'm pretty sensitive about immersion gigglgers

#

but I don't think it's a hot take to want 1 character to only be 1 class

#

this is the case in the majority of RPGs

noble elk
#

I remember when a guy named blight rolled up on me in p2

#

Was like hey maybe he won't kill me

#

Was wrong

nimble wind
#

Alts will be useful for crafting. Keep them in the area where the best mats/benches are. Also, if your so inclined, have battle ready alts in different locations for PVP for a quicker response.

Finally installed and giving it a go this week. What's the state of the server? Worth grinding it out solo at first or are there any Guilds that are well organized?

noble elk
#

Server is pretty well dead at the moment while people wait for the fresh phase in August. Best just to familiarize yourself with the game for a couple weeks before the reset.

I’m just worried they drop a lackluster p3 with not many new features and we get a very lethargic start.

As a GM you are essentially a salesman for the game. Currently it’s hard to sell people on playing P3. There is no big hook or systems I can point to and say no p3 will be better than p2.5 because xyz.

yea though thats not the reason why they should delay as it is an alpha but many other reasons

how is it not contesting

you can sleep the other guy and then start chopping

now if the guy also cc breaks you are on equal footing (as in cc breaks down for both)

now you can fight for it

aka contesting

in what universe do you not spec, wings, blink, roar, shadowstep, disengage

#

if you dont then thats on you

noble elk
#

If the only 2 ways of doing it are what we have now and what we had before I would say revert the change but there has to be another option

sacred orchid
#

has to be but there isnt

#

and tbh i was statisfied with what we had

#

you foght for it

#

"fight for limited resources"

noble elk
#

Ya that's why I say it's the better of the 2 options but it's still not ideal

midnight surge
#

I don’t think they should delay, let them stick to the timelines they currently have in place

noble elk
#

Maybe if they increase cooldowns on some of these cc to prevent people from just standing there spamming it and griefing people trying to gather

midnight surge
#

They need more cc and utility abilities

sacred orchid
kind terrace
#

Like

#

What am I even reading

sacred orchid
#

even if that was planned but not being able to cc whities is just fighting the symptoms

midnight surge
#

Cc what ?

sacred orchid
#

or good desgined

#

which is also not the case

kind terrace
sacred orchid
#

not rly

kind terrace
#

Balancing them from PvP/PvE perspective - that's a valid reason

kind terrace
sacred orchid
#

rogues being able to sleep people for 8-12 seconds twice is silly

kind terrace
sacred orchid
#

which is biggest way you can "grief" people with

kind terrace
#

Rogues def need balancing and not because of gathering

sacred orchid
#

doesnt matter what u talk about

#

one does not contradict the other

kind terrace
#

Yes, it does

noble elk
sacred orchid
#

i dont mind most cd's for the most part

#

id have vine field on 45 sec tho

kind terrace
#

Well, I played a game where you could sleep someone for 45 seconds with like 2 second cd (% based)
Silence for up to a minute (% based)
Or limit someone's HP/MP to 30% for 5 minutes

I don't use that as an argument

noble elk
#

Ya lots of other games would have stuff like vines or marionette/sleep on a 45-60 sec cd

sacred orchid
#

i biggest grain is sleeping darts and marionette though marionette is a cast but nothing you cant do muich against it if you dont have 27 backflips then vine field cd

kind terrace
sacred orchid
#

sure, tldr doesnt matter

kind terrace
#

I'd rather have chance-based CC's/debuffs, depending on your offensive and target's defensive stats
It's weid that level 8 ranger, for example, could root a bunch of lvl 25s with 100% chance

#

With min/max chance like min chance 10% / max chance 90%

#

And obviously reduced CDs as a result of that

sacred orchid
#

id argue its even good so lvl 8 people can at least try to fight against someone higher lvl

#

just when we did the lvl 8 gank squad on the p2 NA server when testing routes

#

they have a massive disadvantage by gear and stats but they at least have the ability to do so

kind terrace
sacred orchid
#

sure but we had the ability to do so

kind terrace
#

I don't think a situation with 1% chance of happening is what should be primarily taken into account

sacred orchid
#

you miss 100% of the shots you dont take

#

and lvl 8 to 25 is just one example

kind terrace
sacred orchid
#

i can tell you how when i was farming growler helmet in HH i looted body corpses in the meantime til it respawned

#

til a lvl 18 and lvl 14 both attacked me and they managed to get me somewhat low

#

while they had the handicap they had at least the chance of trying

#

which i think is good

sacred orchid
#

whats the argument against it

kind terrace
#

"It happened once in hundreds of hours, so let's definitely take it as a foundation of CC design"

#

Sure man, makes perfect sense

sacred orchid
#

why shouldt it be allowed

#

tell me

kind terrace
#

What shouldn't be allowed?

sacred orchid
#

why shouldt a lvl 8 be able to root 25

frank oriole
#

There should be both chance CC and guaranteed CC

kind terrace
#

Never said he shouldn't be able to do that
Read what I said

frank oriole
#

Some skills (particularly big AOEs) make more sense being chance based

sacred orchid
#

you said it shouldt be able to be 100% therefore should be restricted

#

you are going for semantics

#

you can make the argument to make cc go with accuracy sure

kind terrace
sacred orchid
#

i do understand it

kind terrace
#

Alright, so?

sacred orchid
#

you do udnerstand that a lvl 8 does not have the means to get these stats

#

so why shouldt be they able to be to

kind terrace
#

He will have some stat value of the stat that is responsible for that chance
Which will convert in whatever chance it will be
15-20-30% or whatever it is according to the formula and target's resist

sacred orchid
frank oriole
kind terrace
#

Crit chance is also rng, yet that is somehow not a problem
Same as accuracy/evasion

frank oriole
#

But large AOEs should be chance based

#

and chance per player hit not just a "oh the skill missed"

sacred orchid
#

crit chance has not the same value as cc and furthermure it goes against the enemy stats yes

kind terrace
#

Pfff

sacred orchid
#

i rather have not build in rng for no reason

frank oriole
#

Crit serves a completely different purpose to CC

kind terrace
sacred orchid
#

if i manage to get a 5 man root because i landed it and the enemy had poor positioning then i should get the 5 man root

kind terrace
frank oriole
#

I'm saying RNG is ok in some elements?

sacred orchid
frank oriole
#

Just saying comparing crit and cc is stupid.

kind terrace
sacred orchid
#

go to sleep man

frank oriole
#

At least Daven is making smart arguments, even if I disagree with the ethos.

#

you're just being disingenous lol.

kind terrace
kind terrace
#

If you think that crits decide the outcome in 1% of the fights - you are delusional, sorry

sacred orchid
#

just say you are wrong and go to bed

kind terrace
#

I don't care how big this echo chamber gets, the logic you use makes little no sense

frank oriole
#

If you get a CC it enables a DPS rotation to land. If you land one crit without any CC/Silence or other effects it does nothing because it can be out healed or the player can escape.

sacred orchid
#

to you maybe because you cant comprehend it

frank oriole
#

Crit is a vital stat that increases your overall DPS, it's good to spec into and is often the best stat for DPS classes. But in a 1v1 fight it's the crits that add up over time to kill someone. A single crit is not as pivotal as a CC that allows you to land 3 crits.

oh shut up you soy fuck

just because you are wrong as usual

frank oriole
# shut fossil I need a TLDR

we were discussing CC. and this dude is arguing that because % based crit is a thing, then % based CC is fine.

shut fossil
#

% Based cc is dumb af especially in a game with limited cd tied CC breaks

kind terrace

Except the tourney that was cool

#

its not the same thing you monkey

kind terrace
#

You're fun person to talk to, come talk to me 1v1

frank oriole
#

because RNG in one aspect IS FINE and another is game changing

#

and I agree that % CC is ok as well

#

I agree with that./

shut fossil
#

It's not at all

frank oriole
#

and that's what me and daven were discussing

shut fossil
#

Any RNG form of CC is horrible

#

If this was action with a resource based cc break then sure

#

But not in this

kind terrace
# shut fossil It's not at all

With current CDs and CC break mechanics - 100% not ok
Obviously shifting to chance-based CC's implies other changes to them

sacred orchid
sacred orchid
#

then flanker comes in being a silly knobhead

shut fossil
#

Fact check by real American patriots

frank oriole
#

I think %based CC has been good in other games

sacred orchid
#

such?

frank oriole
#

But the game needs to be balanced to accomodate

shut fossil
#

It's still a dumb af design no matter which wat you cut it

kind terrace
#

Alright, we're getting somewhat constructive now

sacred orchid
#

thats the reason for me i still think pvp in wow is not good

kind terrace
frank oriole
#

GW2

sacred orchid
#

in classic that is

shut fossil
#

Only way its viable and not broken as a mechanic is if your CC breakers become a resource

frank oriole
#

had some guaranteed CCs and some chance Based

#

skill shot CCs are guaranteed

kind terrace
frank oriole
#

another good example

sacred orchid
#

cant say didnt played

#

in any case im not gonna go in circles

frank oriole
#

both good games with good PvP and still fairly active communities

shut fossil
#

Any rng based CC is bad

sacred orchid
#

stay mad im always right and #pray4delay

quaint fractal
#

This game needs heartbeat cc break. Sitting 10 second ccs Everytime is lame 🙂

kind terrace
#

Chance-based or 100% - doesn't really matter if:
a) It's not a number of random chaotic decisions, but there is a well-thought design concept behind it
b) It's properly balanced

shut fossil
#

No

#

I will not elaborate

#

I dont have the crayons nor the time

kind terrace
#

@shut fossil which class did you play before rogue?

sacred orchid
frank oriole
# shut fossil Any rng based CC is bad

I think it's fine to have that opinion tbh. There is nothing wrong with guaranteed CCs if there are decent cleanses/breaks. But I just hold a different stance.

shut fossil
#

Absolutely hated it

sacred orchid
#

not even fighter

shut fossil
#

I despise caster classes

sacred orchid
shut fossil
#

I played mage since p1 because I knew that shit was gonna be great to grind with

#

Ez money maker

sacred orchid
#

shoulda take ranger then

#

most busted shit

shut fossil
#

Nah

sacred orchid
#

easiest solo farm with gatling gun arrowstorm

shut fossil
#

Just do this

#

Ofc not optimal groups

#

But we just did this and seph in p2

sacred orchid
#

why group for it though

#

yea i know about that

shut fossil
#

Well we needed the cc chains to stop em spitting PepeS

#

And they died before the ccs were over

sacred orchid
#

if i needed glint i just went tropics gatlin gun the shamans and got hella glint

#

though they changed it now

#

well ranger as well so cant do that either

shut fossil
#

I think with peak gear towards the end we were doing 9G-12g in raw glint an hour

sacred orchid
#

too much work

glad abyss
#

rng cc is dogshit

#

just my 2 cents

lilac cliff
#

agreed

#

rng anything in pvp is bad tbh

glad abyss
#

i think there are some layers to it, but cc especially shouldnt be a thing

lilac cliff
#

dodging an attack with a roll and still getting cc'd even though the attack itself missed is actually the most tilting part of this game

hexed needle
midnight surge
#

You can do solo halls at level 21 and still get xp and rewards, and literally pull the entire first floor and all the rooms of goblins , and it’s a massive fuck ton of glint

shut fossil
#

Yea but is it 15g an hour

exotic dagger

Jesus 15g per hour I think I was getting like 12g doing solo lawless Jundark you just killing the grems? Or looping the bat things/wolves/etc

i know u can knockout a roll but trip it?

i thought all damage CC is dodgeable?

candid mauve
#

Because of stagger with disable evasion debuff I can trip roll most of the time if the person has no evasion gear or buffs

#

Also could just be OCE jank tho

same for sprint, and maybe for block, but idk how to do that well without stamina Hmmmge

I can't wait for 2098 when they finally expand the dodge/stamina system

torpid hill

I don't want it expanded, I want it gone Nooooogers
the entire concept of the universal talent tree is just bad IMO

P3 has already been delayed

torpid hill
#

both before P1 and before P2, the game was in a much more instable state than it is now, and i'm not talking about how many features/how much content we had

#

I think P2 launched during christmas or something so they didn't even have 95% of the team in the office while the game was full of major bugs

rocky abyss
#

@tacit viper whats the chances of p3 been delayed again?

hallow bridge
#

Shouldn't be an issue this time around

torpid hill
#

i'm not saying P3 won't be delayed though, but I don't think that's something we have any input in.
they have way more variables to consider on the inside

#

pre-P1 the "movement' was bigger too

hallow bridge
#

I don't think p3 should be delayed, just delay playing the game if you want to wait for certain features

sacred orchid
hallow bridge
#

Vassalization, Anvils, and Economy changes should make it in before Aug 4th

sacred orchid
#

Economy is a big part yea

#

Personally i dont think it will be ready by august but i wouldt mind being wrong

torpid hill
#

ofc, they should be allowed to delay whenever they want

hallow bridge
#

I mean, Anvils is there its just blocked off, Economy changes are in PTR if you've looked around, and Vassalization is in PTR

sacred orchid
#

Yea exactly but some person seem iron about it and try to alter what ive said

hallow bridge
#

They just need to be refined

sacred orchid
#

Very odd

#

Economy has a lot more to it then just on ptr though

tacit viper

makes it seem like you're demanding a delay rather than giving them the thumbs up if they want to gigglgers

The shield flag thing also doesn't work many times..... Usually on uneven terrain much like chain

never seen the shield flag fail

that ability is also insane

nimble should be tuned down a little or given an ICD, gambit should be given an ICD probably

i dont like the energy change tho

#

but it was a bugfix

#

we'll see if they change it in the class reworks

#

if this phase is staying up for a year i might just level every class

ill probably do the same for p3

#

maybe multiple clerics since i have to help people level x.x

yea just annoying that chain doesnt work, flag apperently also bugged (dunno if fixed like it applies to everyone and shit) and annoying grit system which u had to stack twice and keep refreshing every 10 sec which is now 20

still annoying tho

havent played tank really myself though so cant fully say

If grapple damage hits you, it should pull you

#

There's a 0.5s delay between damage registering and it pulling which causes the bulk of the issues. They get out of range or dodge roll in that window its not going to pull em

noble elk

I think it's all force move abilities that are messed up because I noticed trying to Boop stuff around with get off the stage has a similar issue

If there is any kind of terrain collision at all it just doesn't work

The way chain calculates is odd but once you figure it out you can hit chain nearly all the time 😎

Also the banner is good but it's nothing compared to it's glory in p1
