Difficult ones.
Iโve been so out of the loop this is some juicy stuff
Stay tuned to find out ... Next week on: Whos On Top
"TMX uses DA's account PI money to go europe, hires Miruku and friends and comes back to start hiring americans to Polar"
have u been playing?
ngl kinda finding your efforts pathetic
Samesies
Didn't know Oni was an officer ๐ฒ
oni was v3 v3.5 officer chat admin chat TMs chat
you think thats the only one? xD
damn you guyys slow
Shut up you damn kids Iโm trying to nap.
dave leak polars officer chat pls
Sorry grandpa
i just posted something naughty about u
dw you'll find out soon enough ๐
Essentially yellow a shot caller and leader in aura. Went back to polar since he helped create it and was in it for 10 years. Doubt its anything more
what was that? xD
ChucklingOutLoud
Yellow going back to polar tickle me surprised
idk u tell me. ur the one in our "officer chat" that def exists in polar discord
Old but gold barcode/ aura losing officers to polar lmfao
i've gotta tell you what you dropped on me?
damn you guys need Aura to do everything huh
Who's shot calling now? Hope it's not Chase. Tanko was running circles around him.
use your contacts
oh wait
Yeah I mean eod its a game if u feel you'll have more fun in another place have at it imo
For the love of god someone pls mute lexicat.
he's having a public episode in his favorite video game that he's not allowed to play....
damn it polar
who needs a shot caller? this game doesn't have pvp
Tbh it wasnt from this but awhile ago. Tbh at this point I dont remember what it was lmao
You telling me you wouldnt like TMX yelling in your ears?
GOOD COMMS
Oh it was probably from one of my many times of being a shit gibbon
Well not aura since they keep losing them to polar ๐
I was in a scrim once and he joined our side... I bounced right after.
hey scary
Maybe prob had to do with something about crafting
did ur 8 man have a good officer talk about yellow? did shatter, roidzilla, oof, darkwynn,chase ect have alot to say?
calamity bong
alot of people had alot to talk about!
yeaaaaaaaa, that was a touchy subject for a lot of people and I can't help myself
No we were in our own discord playing a different game
Fair lmao we gotta find content somewhere
how would u know tho
or are u a name bender as well
Because we arenโt playing the game lol.
@untold canopy your entire guild vs polar
Oh and ex guildies ๐
then log off and stop typey
i didnt type for 3 months in 2.5. aura seems to insist they aren't playing but moderating this discord for every msg
very interesting
funny how you got ALL the memes but none of the hands xD
send pvp clips
i dont like this one because I like loki
This gonna be y'all's caravans next few weeks
Loki series was peak
I donโt think Iโm moderating anything I was just catching up on the juicy drama
Last night Maggie said something about their CS team reading all the posts and having create summaries to push up the devs. Does the person assigned to this channel just write 'guilds still shit-posting at each other' everyday?
wait what happened to Aura?
they disband or smth? ik a bunch of players said fuck this phase
lets be real the cs person assigned to these channels has the most fun
They keep loosing their officers and core members to polar
I wonder if they got a shit list and if im on it lmao
oh yeah totally
is only 3 mins
an entire video about recruiting 1 fuckface xD
I get so hyped everytime the song starts.
so not the standard 15 min nonsense. tik-tok version next
the cope is amazing
If they have such a list I'm pretty sure we're both on it...
@untold canopy WE NEED TO RELEASE SOCIAL MEDIA EVERY RECRUIT SO WE CAN BE AS SPECIAL AS POLTARDS!
are u asking srixun to dox his own guild? he probably would but just wondering
very confusing sentence
Ya man we're good. as much as AURA wants to make this all IRL we'd prefer to continue stomping u in game. thanks for asking if we wanted to escalate it tho!
Except your officers, a victory, a siege, and every other aspect
The only thing you guys have and do better then us is lose
i'd try to change the subject after that too
Also lost xant too ๐
weirdo much
oh no xD
And every war dec and siege
We were like 20-0 in G Wars in 2.5, 3-0 in sieges, 10 AURA caravels down. Biggest polar W in 2 patches?
srix its just a game. dont dox me pls
Honestly the first 3 days this phase was the biggest W 40 lvl 25s while everyone else was lvl 14. It's the biggest generational gap of all time.
pretty sure all the doxers are in your guild now?
shatter joined polar?
Me and my rocks are leveling slow ok?
our group would have been right behind you guys by a few hours if our tanks internet cables didnt get fried
i'm sure you think that ๐

and you took him back
We only make fun of AURA and Supple. Supple been claiming for months that they are going to shit on us and AURA well.....its AURA idk man.
No explanation needed on the AURA tag
I dislike Tmugsy a looooot and even I defend polar against people like Srixun
sooo o
North had to be convincing. That's why he's the greatest 007 of all time.
My afk fisher hit lvl 14 in 3 days... not really sure hitting 25 in 3 days is that much of an achievement. That said I have no problem with ppl showing the devs the weaknesses in their design - just needs to be fixed for launch.
shatter is not in polar. i know ur having a mental breakdown rn but get it together Mr Euro
This was so peak when they kicked their own guildies from their siege roster to make room for better players in other guilds to beat us.
Well you ain't scary so what else would we call you? Floor pov
True .. Timothy is a mug, so that one does check out
Barcode got scanned out and had to rebrand to aura only to get aura farmed again by polar every phase ๐
Jamaica is my choice
Damn you guys are freaks kinda cringe
oh no you got us! .. quick let me get the water to treat the harsh burns

I can't wait for POLAR Officer Quoncy to come back ๐
im waiting for eph to come back
Still waiting on my mount
Crazy competition on na guys 
They will once Supple begs Alec to take over and rebrand to EPH.
@quick notch Can the world first 25 group get some mounts ๐
Doxxing is any personal information that isnt shared with permission
almost like its a legal definition
Can't ... servers down
Do not post yours or anyone elseโs personal information, this includes addresses, phone numbers, and information within pictures.
Doxxing is a serious offense and is no joking matter.
Seeking out an individuals information and posting things on the Ashes Discord from their social media is not appropriate even if its "public"
- Being provided this information by someone else then sharing is not appropriate either
It does not belong here.
- If someone is sharing their or others personal information please DM a Moderator
Lets keep chat civil and related to in-game matters.
so if its in the public domain already then its fine?
dumb rules xD
within that platform and the information shared publically
if you link your FB on your discord then its not doxxing x.x
Lets get thee human activists on top of it
i guess the USA freedom of speech stops at discord xD
... I didn't know you couldn't share your own info, kind of a weird rule but it's their server
ones freedoms should not impede another's or prevent them from pursuing their human rights
Were you in Helios and Himerus group?

thats why you cant scream fire in a public space without reasonal cause
nawww, we had our own
is it breaching rights to call someone their name?
thats dumb
we all agreed on terms and conditions that prevent us from doing certain activities within their space.
so wait .. my Display name breaches these rules? xD
their discord their rules hombre
true, but i can still say its dumb
Are we not allowed to call Steven Steven?
yeah we got queue bossed day 1 but we were on pretty consistently afterwards. just forced to pug lol im not even 20 yet. Thats how behind we got lol was maddening seeing people hit 25 while rando tanks overpull and boom out after 1 death
Their discord is on the Internet which is monitored and regulated to not restrict We The People of our Rights .... err no
the rules and guidelines are pretty easy to follow. people just struggle minding their own business ๐คทโโ๏ธ
just because something is easy doesnt mean its not dumb
We had two people lag behind from queues but our 1-10 route can be done solo so they caught up pretty quickly and we just zoomed from there.
I didint sign. They tricked us with flashy fun mmo game. Im suing
you like your right to defend your domicile correct? if someone thought it was dumb do you think it should be changed?
answers no
that depends if i was acting in the public domain
like a media release such as a game
"your domicile"
if you open a shop you cant sue somene for trespassing if they come in
"domicile" haven't heard that phrase used since Demolition Man
you can give a warning and if they dont listen you can call the police for tresspassing...
happens all the time
if someone comes in with a gun and tries to rob you, you have the right to defend yourself on equal terms
thats why if you shoot them in the back it turns into homicide rather than self defense
im not convinced dave owns 2 businesses in the USA if he thinks that way
people get trespassed in walmart
i own call centers, they are not based in the UK, but we do live chat and phone calls for the Goverment
from English speaking countries
such as Jamaica ๐
This is you coping with your failed guild ๐
thats particular states and how they handle that
All this effort is amazing
ima frame this and put it on my wall
good effort
its a meme template anyone can do it
Depends on the state I think.
they gotta be in there for a x amount of days in a row
Previous generations put men on the moon... this generation creates meme templates
squatting is a good way to end up buried in someones backyard lol
Tbf this generation also has reusable rockets. Id agree tho on average this generation is prob more dumb me included. Wonder how much covid causing zoom call schools for 2 years will affect things later on
lotta funny rules with it
Isnt this mostly California?
a lot of it varies by state so its hard to track for everywhere
Tell me you don't enjoy the ragebait here. Honestly more fun than Ashes right now.
i come here for it
TMX used DA's account PI money to go europe, hires Miruku and friends and comes back to start hiring americans to Polar?
The discord pvp is more enjoyable than the actual game....
Totally should vote me for mayor of winstead the only thing i can offer you is a party every wendesday, with free beer, and belly dancers in the sand nodes. Wa1rus2025
That's your perspective, I enjoy most things about the game so far.
So this roll back they are doing will basically make it super rare again to get legendary and heroic gatherables?
It's majority of the player bases perspective but thanks for the input.
That's a bold claim.
He isn't wrong
Your name literally has PVp in it, lol...
Yea and it needs to be fixed
It's in Alpha.
Pvp was better in phase 2 and halfway to 2.5 made it worse
Then made it worse again in 3.0
year 2028 "it's still in alpha, you must never played an alpha before!!!!!!"
I havn't tried pvp yet very much, but I am sure I will be swayed when I do.
What?
Saying it's in alpha isn't a excuse for consistently bad decisions and bad game design choices back to back.
Alpha is a excuse for things not working correctly and adding new features to make the game
Not bad decisions.
Yeah but if you know it's in Alpha why would you complain?
Just make bug reports.
Pointless
My character being bald and bugs and glitches yea it's in alpha
The lack of in consistent art yea it's in alpha that's a excuse
Removing content with no alternatives, hitting your only pvp loop, then making worse pvp decisions despite back lash, refusal for basically balance fixes and pushing out phase 3 when it's not ready for p3 that's not a excuse to go well it's in alpha that's just straight poor decision making
I get where you are coming from.
And they need to do better
Well ease up, I am sure it's not an easy job.
I'm fine with the game taking 6 more years to make if it becomes a great game. It they really need to rethink some of their approach to alot of things their doing.
I will say them rolling back the servers is an improvement already compared to last phase
brother beta ain't happening till like 2028
Tbh I see phase 4 before beta right now
it's a matter of weeks before the player base dies again
Their biggest crippling problem that needs to change is
Longer ptr testing stop testing shit for a day then rolling it out.
When you test shit and ask for feed back doo something with that feed back
If majority of people are saying these are issues and will scuff the phase it needs to be fixed and you do nothing that needs to stop we're not talking about stupid feed back like omg we need cosmetics
We're talking mechanically game breaking stuff that kills the server.
Dude you don't know that lol, and I have to say you are a pretty cynical person.
Making an update at midnight and having to rollback at 3 am is so wild.
This
This is why they need to fucking test on ptr and get feed back, then do something with the feed back when issues are reported rather then trying to rush to the next thing and leaving it in a bad state
It is legitimately why the game gets as bad as it does
That Winstead ember shrine was reported on the ptr multiple times along with joeva yet they didn't do shit with it
Leveling progression speed and lack of drops was negative on ptr they did nothing with it
Cc white names same thing, lawless zones same thing.
Balancing and the 3 shotting with certain gear same thing
Or they could have just waited until tomorrow to push out this obviously important update. Idk call me crazy.
White names? CANCELED!
And they ASKED FOR THE FEED BACK
Iโve never seen a game have its peak in an early alpha before
Lol this
They would only need to rollback to before the update and it would be during work hours and not 3 am. You seem confused lol.
The update should have never happened last night. It should have been rolled out Tuesday morning.
Liken years later and they still can't push simple updates without breaking the game and old stuff returning
Stuff that was fixed many times, ya got a wait like 2 years in hopes they make small number tweaks to classes.
They rush stuff off the ptr that isn't ready rather than fixing it and brick live servers,
If they can't get this together as after years how TF would they handle launch day
And all these issues stem from bad decisions being consistently made
So....who's getting banned?
To just before the update......like they did last night. The update yesterday made it 10x worse. You were getting epic and legendary mats everywhere not just specific spawns.
Roll back to before static rarity
So Apoc?
Ya. Just start over. Maybe game good this time
Open Development was a mistake ๐
It seems like the bones of last nights update were good but there was just way too much high quality shit. Ngl tho they added the rarity to hunting so I hope they keep it in line with the rest of the gathering skills so we can actually craft some high quality medium armor.
Someone put the decimals in the wrong spots
Claude please produce an update with no mistakes 
so i missed it all, what is the 'rarity' issue from the patch last night (went to bed when it went from an estimated 1hr to 2hr downtime)? Drop rate for higher rarity stuff on gathering was too high?
aaaaah ok, thanks
25+ comes when we get 2nd classes I think
buying all blue - heroic animals when server comes up, dm riddic. not carcasses
It's not. Summoner is being released in November (hopefully) then once it's out they are doing a re-work to the original archetypes. Dual archetypes will come after that. My guess they won't release dual archetypes until March/April IMO.
I just want the artisan system to be balanced and functional for now
Took way too long to cook in the first place and still needs more time
I have hard evidence that POLAR is exploitingโฆ how do they have both smiley fries AND tendies?????
Those dinos?
Actual food requires poop to grow. And since you can't grow rarity to increase the xp like all the other processing professions (other than tanning), it is one of the most expensive to skill up (i.e. farming is). Cooking itself is very easy to level up so long as you don't actually make food and just vendor fillets.
Those arent tendis those are nuggies WTF is wrong with you?
Yeah they can but drop rates nerfed and need like 4000 droppings to level to 10.
Also like 20 gold to buy vendor reagents and process. It is doable but not the priority when every other profession is cooked.
It's tough as the market price is over 4 silver per dropping. Need guild funneling droppings but no one wants to kill animals as they don't drop gear.
I don't even know where that is... lol
Oh look, another problem that would be fixed by making every killed animal corpse gatherable via hunting.
It'd also help a lot if they made it so consuming food gave droppings. Circle of life.
but what are you dipping it in .... inquiring minds need to know.
Can also level up farming with mulch...dont need droppings
Guild secret buddyโฆ nice try
Captures can be accounted for by way of, "oh look this animal I thought was dead is still alive" - makes way more sense than petting animals to death, at least.
Cost is twice as much and mulch useless without freeholds, but yes that is an option and I haz lots of woodchips just in case.
Its just nuts to me. The fix is so simple. Other MMOs figured this out decades ago. It makes no sense that you can kill 50 wolves and none of them can be harvested for hides or meat.
damnit :<
That would be a reasonable compromise, but I still think the docile hunting animals are a weird bespoke thing that needs to die.
12 hours downtime and not even one PvP meltdown in here? Everyone gotten too humble? Might aswell turn it into a movies night channel
that was a clean edit
Ngl, most interesting thing to happen in this game in a while
Still not playing tho
Thanks
do you need weaponsmithing to make apprentice tools ?
anyone else keep getting a bug where you just constantly are spinning around as if one of your direction keys are just stuck pressed? it's gotten me killed twice
anyone doing leveling groups ? lvl 8 mage lfg for riverlands
yjovain called me the n word
any GM's on?
General Motors is out of service.
Need to place more General Vendors, Storage Vendors and Marketplace Managers, split up the area where we all gather and divvy up the demand of clicks.
not 100% sure but pretty sure the whole point is for people to gather in large amounts so the world doesnt feel empty, also it being the type of mmo where u gotta constantly travel for things to keep u on longer. It sounds like a nice request for effiency but alot of this game is intentionally not efficient from what ive seen
I agree with your statement somewhat.. but it shouldnt take me 10 minutes to travel from a Smithing bench to a Logging bench so i can craft weapons/armor. and then back another 10 mins. also waiting 1 minute for the single craft to finish.
you know it better than i do, so your probably right lol, 3 minute travel time would be realistic at most
I understand it is alpha, and the interior or "city" part of the dwarven zone looks good even with medium graphics, pretty empty but im sure that will change later.. i do hope they dont make it a starter zone but an actual trading hub where there is NO storage, but have a marketplace that gives you discounts on selling/buying things.
Too many dicks on the dance floor !
Well strippers need poles...
too many misters not enough sisters
There are plenty of sisters but they think they are men.

@quick notch ya missed a griefer. level 25 going into lower level areas and just killing the lowbs
Use support ticket to report players.
Peach you got that bully, just seduce.
is everyone else laggy
No sir! I am on that alcohol!
How about to get a Gm to unstuck a character? <3?
Log out for 10 mins, then login again
Will try again! Stuck in a falling state under winstead. Unstuck does nada for me.
@willow barn 
You walked into a pvp zone and got pvp'd
why are you confused?
@ margaret, someone PVP'd ME IN A PVP ZONE OMG
We are not supposed to engage with the intended systems provided by Intrepid duh.
yeah nope, got past the Q and still failling endless :9
@agile prairie if you see this on the map, it means you will be flagged for pvp ๐
/bug in chat
is it a thing where someone can grab your stuff after u died, get flagged for pvp and they insta logout?
where can i get better gear than crude for gathering in anvils?
do i need to hit lvl 10 first to get better gear?
artisan gear is crafted, they took it off the vendors
ya i thought back in P1 and P2 they gave you novice gear like right away?
it takes a real level 25 to just kill level 12s questing we were working our way out of the area,
walk around next time ๐
dont come in here saying I am griefing for walking into a pvp zone... bad look
its ok, we know where and who to get willow off next time too
must be from all the exploiting the rest of your guild was doing as well. dont worry im sure they got your number
polar derangement syndrome
we all still here
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
so polar is griefing steelblom for 3 days straight without stopping and nobody does anything xd
Fight back
kill them
after they exploited to get 25 haha
those darn polar
who cares
Show us where they exploited

Pretty sure roxis has his vods up
Is it just me, or are other people seeing issues with broken job boards in the Anvils? Specifically Emberspring and Hammer Rest.
Been several days now
Generational gap.
The salt is real lol
Please please show and tell us which exploits we used
Im fucking begging at this point
Griefer shamelessly exploiting bugs in aoe pvp settings in steel bloom
I have recordings 2
Only if intrepid would do anything about it
exactly what im alerting here xd
but every brothel has its whores, probably the cartel is one of them xd
Him and Yjovain, just report and move on.
But thats not exploiting to 25?
not a bug change your settings bud
Ive done that in the past. Doesn't do anything
It is a bug I've confirmed it with community managers
If ppl flag on purple players because of shitty pvp settings or just flagging back its not griefing but gg no re
I have screenshots of my settings + videos
change your settings
@untold canopy come get yo mans
I see you are a man of wisdom and many thoughts
I see I'm a man that changed his settings.
please dont shit talk my good friend miruku
hahahaah be a man (even knowing that this would be impossible for you)
Oof if only darktide wasnt so fucking ASS
Shall I supply the video?
Confirmed bug, has been reported
yet multiple people with polar tags are running around purposely exploiting it
all caught on video
Imagine that your grinding, you see someone coming thru trying to bait, dragging mobs, so you have your group switch to single targetting to not pull extra mobs and then be drawn into purple status by something beyond your control
For reference, these are the combat settings, so its not like I am cleaving anyone with cleave damage
Just some players not in party running through, casting abilities on you which forces you into flagging even though you are not pushing alt to force flag.
Not a bug. Likely a bard or cleric doesn't have it unchecked and they flag you. Change your settings. ๐
do something @tacit viper , every phase 1 only tag always getting in the way of the others xd I honestly think it's gone too far xd
One of your bards or clerics doesn't have the right settings
Honestly I dont see what was wrong with the old flag toggle setting
No we made every member screenshot their settings

he's just trying to ragebait haha
@proper igloo fix your game mate
They changed it after the fact 
Remember when ppl said that removing the ability to cc whites would only lead to even worse levels of fuckery
And all the pve Peters held hands and said no no this is a good change

Right once again
Remember when they said make leveling harder and make low level crafting better so we have an even playing field? Well the biggest generational gap of all time happened in 2 days.
Crazy how that happens man.
this has nothing to do with not CCing whites, and instead the change to the pvp toggle
Beneficial effects currently have no way to NOT apply to someone flagged, allowing someone not even in a party to trigger effects to cause you to flag, video of polar exploiting this already submitted
Don't feed the troll haha, pretend he's right, smile and wave
๐ ๐
How to say so much yet nothing at all
Already tested the PvP settings and it's always caused from a Cleric or Bard not having that unchecked and their heals/shields flag everyone. I even went corrupt IV to test this. You're welcome.
Yes , you're RIGHT! haha
PVP players never go corrupt 
They never flag
Only pve players flag to claim their spots
Perfect, how did we not think of this before? You guys are amazing!
You seem a little agitated my friend
I aim to please. 
It's obvious we're lucky to have you here, what a nice person!
Who could have seen this coming
NOONE!
The new npcs with purple name plates are really cool
They drop loads of glint
Not being able to CC over spots definitely worsens the mob training necessity for competing over spots.
Its cancer man lol
Imagine grinding for 16 hours in Sephillion with 10g worth of glint in your bag and a 25 comes and nukes you and steals your shit.
Thats a wait for beta angle right there.
Stop using aoes when people are trying to train mobs on you. Let them be eaten by the mob they are dragging
What can they do otherwise?
Well, I'll find out when i get to 25 i suppose
also it better not be connected to rogue invis i sweat to god
... im not going to correct that to swear, sweating fits better
Yup, we tried to tell them, but people didn't believe us. This enables griefers even more.
Yโall donโt want randoms pulling mobs to your group?! Yโall scared for large pulls or something?!
Cleric diff it sounds like. And shotcall issues fr fr
Brother if my computer could handle medal and ashes Iโd save some clips of how to not die from hordes of mobs but my potato canโt handle the sauce
I mean have you watched 90% of these clerics o.o I had to yell at them for only throwing mend and autos
Damn phone ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
I click names tab isnโt reliable with how ashes is now
๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Damn old people do better!!
(โฏยฐโกยฐ)โฏ๏ธต โปโโป
But Iโd be down to actually 100% kill mob training people but canโt now so do what you can and learn to deal with bigger pulls ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Hopefully they flip the corruption switch and let hell break out for a bit. Would be fun.
Hover casting works with every heal now. Clerics should be not using defensive and only using ofensive targets.
Iโm surprised we donโt have 25s running through POIs and clearing it out as red honestly
Majority of even PvPers will do anything to avoid consequential PvP.
Brother if they canโt farm off the timer at 25 they should just quit ๐๐
Fucking losers is what they are
who could've seen that coming
I've heard polar is exploiting citizen affiliation
Ah yes rushing world first out of content is so much more rewarding than making an impact on the players or testing how far corruption goes in p3
Guys be real this is definitely the gorgeous face you want as mayor of winstead my beauty would conquer all.
What's going rate for legendary copper?
Okay so i keep hearing that people are making gold off running crates?
can we get some semi enjoyable early game progression. This the only phase i noped the fk out of on my second day playing. i just cant be bothered farming mobs all day every day for nothing. pve content is wack, the least you could do is feed me some Dopamine
as much as I don't like their current roadmap (because I think the Harbringer system is taking away time from more important features)
they are really focusing on the questing rework, which seems like exactly what you'd want:
I hope this means we get a ton of quests soon
i dont want questing lol i just want loot if im gonna be farming mobs for 10 hours a day.
oh i don't think you'll get that personally, but we'll see 
I think they'll lower gear drops if anything, or maybe raise them but make them weaker
straight up i was having more fun programming then farming mobs for 0 loot and i shut the game off lol
you know game is not doing good if you have more fun programming net code for your own game
programming is fun 
it can be chill ngl
i can't imagine grinding mobs being fun long-term, with or without loot drops personally
i want quests, bosses, events, pvp, etc. stuff to mix up with grinding
i mean thats what alot of games do. poe 2 diablo is just mob grinding
i can enjoy it but this my third time doing it and they make it worse and worse each phase
those are single player ARPGs tho, most MMOs have questing, even sandbox ones
just because of the drop rates?
for me the most annoying part about grinding is the dumb mob ai related bugs
i could be wrong but i would never look to ashes as having good quest. of course they will have fillers but it wont be good mmo questing like SWTOR
I don't think SWTOR has good quest, it was very linear
good quests for me in an MMORPG mean a bunch of scattered, semi-interconnected, small/med size questing hubs that tell the story of the nearby zone / people
SWTOR is known for having enjoyable sit back relax watch dialogue story telling questing.
yeah sure but it was too linear for an MMORPG IMO, i agree that it was rly good as a story tho
AoC will never have linear / main story questing like that
i feel like quests could make grinding more fun too
not really cause you would finish all the quest in your level range and then would still have to mob grind most the time.
there should be more quests than you can finish then
friendly daily reminder to vote for Angelcry as mayor of Winstead ๐
hmm i had not logged in today and didn't know the elections already ended. Did rollback mess with it? cause hasn;t even been 24 hours 
lol
Early for next vote ๐
Hey guys, in order to make apprentice tools; do you need to be an apprentice of the crafting profession or is it enough to be an apprentice in the gathering profession?
Like, do I need to find an apprentice weapon smith to craft me a new pickaxe?
Grats to worldโs first mayor Srix !
๐๐๐
Double hat trick for polar loosing elections. Probably exploits arenโt viable in this module yet hahah
Which elections did they lose I want tea
TAXES ARE NOW SET TO LOWEST POSSIBLE
Aura on top. All hail Mayor Srix!!
Imagine racing to 25 en masse and not winning the first settlement election
Yikes
Unlucky really
Meanwhile hundreds of people were bugged out of citizenship or voting
Good thing we tested lvl 1-9 crafting 14 days in a row
Not that it helped crafting either - it's still completely broken in the Anvils
Anvils crafting vendors STILL selling Riverlands recipes a week after launch ๐

I miss u pookie

I know but this is still a hilarious timeline
pve carebears separeted us
Was angle cry a sobbing mess after not winning
Gac convince Alec to come back asap
Probably not but how would I know?

Why would I tell any of my friends to come back to this train wreck
Because we love suffering
I am just playing this phase to hit rocks and gank caravans
I was even dented enough to roll cleric
Actual brain damage on my end at this point
Wheel me into the retirement home already
Is it possible to get node tickets in Joeva atm? I dont see any quests that give them as a reward so I cant make market crates?
need a mayor to do buy orders and mayoral quests
Got it, thanks
Can I just say thank God it wasn't angelcry...
WTF R U GUYS DOING WERE ABT TO GET LVL 3 IN THE ANVILS
Am I missing something with this crate packing quest? How do I pack it? I click equip and nothing happens?
currently trying to figure out fire
our mages can cast it but we have to find a way to preserve it
Never mind, figured it out. They need to explain that way more clearly
thats a fkn rip
WHY DOES OUR GUILD ALWAYS LOSE ELECTIONS WTF
all Im gonna say is you didnt lose joeva 
theres always next time champ
its gonna be just like in 2.5 the whole server joins to vote us out just because they dont like the little exploiting we do sometimes
are you guys from 2.5 or before? i started on phase 2 and never heard about you guys
polar started gaming in P1 but we only started cheating in P2
well if you aint cheating you aint competing you know?
TRUE
ABCs always be cheating
to be fair its an alpha cheat as much now before the game comes out
Ive never seen this much drama in a alpha before, ๐คทwild behavior lol
Longest running I've seen, usually people give up talking by now, not here ๐ซก
Oh bro you should of seen phase 2.5
i have a youtube recording of the discord drama
you mean when they wiped 2 servers by accident lmao
Like they really hate each other
i missed it and might be interested in this
are your ears though?
People got angwy angwy
you are asking a person on the same discord as @shut widget
hi its me naru
sent to your DM
Grats to @untold canopy !
Salty, salty.
Ty manny! ๐

Gotta be lvl 10
Marketplace manager in winstead
In order to get your lvl3 nodes, did NA leveled all the construction crates or did you simply let adventure XP do the work ?
Hunting crates are missing on EU but they are so boring to do...
Any settlement lvl 3 has a market. They are not linked. You can buy things any level. But you canโt list things until you are lvl 10
if anyone is looking for pvp theres a group of people from ArcheAge wiping level 10s at HH
bunch of level 14-16s
In the Lawless Zone?
Citizens of Vera, we come before you with a most pressing matter: the infestation of homeless polar bears. Yes, these oversized snow rats have abandoned their frozen wastelands and now squat in cardboard dens, begging for coin they clearly donโt deserve. To protect our streets (and our garbage bins), we humbly request a donation of gold. Every contribution goes toward corralling these furry freeloaders back to whatever iceberg spat them out. Give generouslyโbecause the sooner we fund this, the sooner Vera can once again be polar-free.
Why doesn't Joeva have a mayor yet?
its still in the mayor nomination stages
So if I become a citizen today I can vote in the election?
correct

lvl 25s jumping leveling people who're definitely less geared
this is DEFINITELY Medal clip worthy

Idk, not our fault we are ahead of the rest of the server. There is probably like 10 25s that are not POLAR out there. We got slim pickings right now.
@proper igloocan we get any clarification on why crafting was made insanely difficult for no reason after massive backlash to the crafting in p2.5?
it costs 300g in processing costs for a common bow
at level 20
My guess is they really hate crafters! It's an absurd change.
it costs 1050 wood for a bow
can we increase gold cap <3
With the low amount of silver we get from crates winstead->joeva or vice versa we should have enough gold for a 20 bow by beta
could have 300 gold before the day ended in p2.5 ๐
I think the crafting changes are really good, I like a challenging grind
with how difficult it is to get gold right now the costs to make anything lvl 20 is some Korean mmo type shit where they basically force you to buy shit to make it easier from their item shop
"Hey guys we know processing costs are absurd, but for the low price of $3.99 you can buy a potion from the item shop that removes processing fees for 24 hours".
hook it up
are these quest mobs in winstead bugged?
Iโll introduce you to my friend ThankU
bibi and cccc were my hookups but they are in chinese prison now ๐
i agree that we shouldn't be able to craft items really quickly especially not good/high quality ones but with the current system it would take thousands of gold and weeks of processing time to gear ONE player with COMMON crafted gear. it's pretty ridiculous.
the current requirements should be for lego
idc if i have to spend 300g for top end gear
but common is diabolical
We have acoustics in the guild doing the math.
acoustics who can mulitply 175 by 6
also its level 20 crafted gear not 0 or 10 to be clear
where do i find the vendor to buy apprentice tailoring shirts and gathering bag recipies ?
An MMO requiring more than a week of your time to grind to craft items does not mean it is automatically p2w Korean predatory, lol.
good way to get perma'd lol
spending hundreds/thousands of hours on your char then throwing it all away to buy some wood doesnt seem worth it to me at all
I get the game is not super satisfying right now to warrant the grind
But that isnโt the conversation here
If you donโt want a long grind go back to WoW where your progress is reset every 2 years or just play something else
hey this is a really rude way to respond to feedback
But the idea that making weapons takes a while is not really a valid criticism of an MMO that is meant to offer months of character progression
What IS an issue is the fact that mob drops are still too powerful and cheapen the point of crafting
Theyโre getting closer but theyโre still missing the mark completely
if it was actually unavailable i'd agree
Ya not saying they nailed it by any means.... Still needs tuning for sure but its been said from day 1 crafting would be a tough job that required collaboration and resource management
but 1050 legendary ash for a bow is wild with the rate you acquire it
hundreds of gold to make a white bow is insane
More like 1 week for 1 lvl 20 (common) item.
Is it? Why should you be able to immediately craft the highest tier of a weapon?
The alpha has been out for a week
Why should people be running around with legendaries at this point?
Like, do you actually want to play the game?
Bros putting words in my mouth 
Talking to yellow homie
Ya that's crazy but the way it was 6 months ago where you can just find 2 legendary trees and craft yourself the best item in the game is equally stupid so they need to find a balance
Have you considered the following?
Just double up
Then you can maybe craft it before the heat death of the universe
I hope this is the reason lol this game is inevitably going to wipe at some point next year so they need to find the balance between leveling speed and bench availability sooner than later lv 10s should have come up at T2. By the time we got them this phase people had already hit 20 and are getting better gear drops from mobs
If they want to slow people down, make level 15+ a wall thats nigh impossible to grind through without crafted gear and force us all to spend the extra time crafting and gathering
They were on the right track this time around
I think that's the plan eventually but leveling is sped up while node progression isn't..... May not be entirely accurate but they stopped actually telling us what was going on years ago so who knows

Reposting to see if anyone knows... but are these bugged or am I missing something (Winstead quest chain mobs have been dead for hours)
That mob type (red spirit wolf) does not seem to respawn at all
It only spawns once on server reset
Worked fine last phase idk what happened now
I think that crafting needs to be harder
and should require more mats
its too easy rn tbh
We need to wait a week for the Joeva mayor election. Wouldn't it make sense to cut the time for the first election down a bit.
think about it, if crafting is impossible, i dont have to do it
Raise crafting costs!
Crafting is too powerful!
Gonna rename you to dats3 oof
Visual bug, voting is actually 1 day for the first vote (and emergency elections like if your mayor gets banned)
I have no problem with this so long as you willing to pay cost for my bread. Should be about 1 gold per, so 160 gold for your leveling group to each have a stack. Half now and half on delivery?
That is for common bread mind. Given you need green salt from commission rewards (like 1 in 50 chance to drop) and green milk, 1 stack of green bread should only be about 1 gold cap cost.
My favorite change is rations being 16s per stack and only marginally better than just sitting down

@drowsy scarab I'm not sure if this is something discord management can address Shol chat in-game has been for about two hours full of people ragging on minorities and repeating political talking points by the same 5 or more players

Thanks! We'll sort it out.
You know I haven't had to buy them as I get so many from the commission rewards... maybe I should sell them on the market for 10s each?
WORLD FIRST T4 NODE XD
Still seeing this issue in Emberspring and Hammer Rest. Going on since Friday and a bug has been filed - can it be made a priority?
it was def a server side thing
OOOOH no its intended.
Miraleth leveled up so the overflow XP popped it
vhalgadim also went from 60% to next tier, so i doubt it's intentional
Yeah thatโs pretty fast for a t4
Did winstead take over another village then to vassel?
welp
into the dev journal
that should have taken at least 4x longer
live servers going to have metropolises up while everyone is still running around in starter gear

Yea the losers lost ! Came in last place !
I chock this up to a perfect reason to alpha.
oh ya better to catch it now lol
โSo Mr Srixun , howโs it feel to be WORLD AND SERVER FIRST Mayor of p3 ? โ
Governor*
So it's city has two towns, towns two villages, and then villages have 1 vassal?
Yeah, looks like if a T5 could happen it would vassal two t4s, which is effectively 2 entire biomes of nodes
How far is the zone of influence? Do they need to touch?
Favors touching, it can jump across the water. Like Sunhaven can take Mythbreak
Oh, well fuck me. That could be huge
I think on PTR we also saw some node was surrounded so it jumped over the surrounding nodes - which means some HRE looking mess can also occur lol.
I just want to see two or three kingdoms go to war now.
@untold canopy what building are you going for?
I hear DA in that clip 
i heard he's in Jail
Aerial View of T4 Winstead
Srix flying round the Gwagon got em like oooooooh
Clearly Mir leveling up messed up something
Hmmm... hey devs, don't "if (vassal levels up) { give leader node ALL exp;} " 
Donโt forget a little hello world print statement in there
working as intended ๐
New line: std::cout << "สฐแตสทสทแต สทแตสณหกแต" and then that new endl shit they just added, wtf 
it actually could be intended to work this way, Winstead vassaled Joeva and Mira ...
Mira Vassaled Aithanahr
Joeva Vassaled Halcyon
Who?
Ugh why does sub header trigger automod heeeere i know why but dagnabbit
LET ME SMALL TEXT MODS 
Pretty shot!
wasn't the time to level a node from tier 3 to 4 supposed to take at least over a week? Or am I missing something?
Its so legiti!
I suspect that the entire universe converging on Winstead to craft mightโve sped things up
well thank god this is a test lol
Ew he said legiti
In fact letting crafting or processing contribute node XP at all probably creates a really serious snowball problem
Was this an aerial view because its impossible to load it all close up
all in all it looks awesome though
margaret tell them to put lawless zones on Steeelbloom and Carph sometimes so pvp happens and the lag can be cleared out every once and a while!
Yep!
I bet you can climb it
this is my view
its one of those that gets better the more you look at it
you'll get there soon enough ๐ we got a long old phase ahead of us
They should have just made one big server so there would be more people everywhere. Would ahve helped them stress test the game more
wait holy shit youre right
who would've thought exploiter guild was harboring an exploiter. they already took yokai in, so no surprise there
Moving the tree when the node levels up seems really weird
why u do this
tree should stay in place and grow larger
oh, the tree moved? yea, I agree thats a bit creepy.
I think this was missed from the patch notes...
Animal Husbandry Breeding
Inc Terror Otters..
@otternonsense
The only terror bird spawn in the entire game. Poor guy is lonely
The supple oso aura fed and 10 random small guild alliance is like 500+ ppl.
This is just a repeat of p2 with dopamine these ppl are allying the entire server at a chance to beat us at literally anything
Polar just never willing to ally everyone we rather have PvP content than be a hand holding Zerg.
cope
Calm down peasant. Thats big fan energy right there sugar. lol.
You were begging for allies, I got the dms. cry and try harder
polar mad they wont get a node again XD
Lol
griefs everyone
"why noone halp us?"
The true question now is, will tmx bow down and become vassal of the great aura state?
or will he run to the desert and hide
โLvl 12 PvE players typingโ
actual mayor of a node typing
"Governor TM of ... erm .. "
I was in Dopamine it's literally what's happening 
Im just better at it 8)
Daaaaayum
willing to tell us what building you're gonna go for or is it a surprise?
Should probably DM Tanner and ask him what happens when you deprive a PvP guild of PvP.
i guess Fepsi was just Polars Emo phase?
None of our voter coalition is anti pvp. we all fight and go after each other. its not a carebear group. theres 32 guilds in the coalition
and growdin
We're working with the vassal mayor candidates to get a plan formed
It is one of the worst feelings we experienced ๐
how do you feel about whats going on here? - Same thing? ๐
Idk if you saw the dm's Tanner or Kimmy would get anytime a Dopamine player would even look at a carebares direction. It was so cringe.
Yeah we dont have any Non Aggressions or anything, we pvp supple and oso quite a bit.
any stinky gamers out there go take a shower during the downtime
After there 14 hour gaming session
I don't like it. Rather have content this phase already has less actual PvP than the previous 3 phases I guess.
well, I was talking about part of p1 and p2, when many times it was hard to find the pvp content itself.
There were really good ones, ngl, and I did enjoy the times, now we have to get ourselves rdy, honestly I think a huge fight is looming on the horizon, and we need to get ready to reply ๐
First 2 weeks of P2.5 with Lawless tropics and jundark was peak.
true words.
Not having a lawless zone is kinda weird
Steven made me terrorize all the sub lvl 20 POIs because of this.
and the random POI's being low level related and many ppl there just wanting to leveling, will bring a lot of comp[ainning about it
I think I did hear about this happening hahahaha
32 god damn
and we the Zerg
I mean there is no PvP content aside from those lawless zones. It is what it is.
We arent friendly, we just work together on macro and fight on micro. if TM's foresight was longer than foreskin he would be smart with it too 8)
Can you be friendly and make it so storage doesnโt take 10 minutes to open 
nah this is kinda based if true
Hmmmmm no. 8)
How we worked in eve. Fight each other, enjoy the fun, cooperate for g ame/server health.
Its how we killed goons too. 8)
๐ fepsi was a solid joke for a while
Well I have a good PC
itโs just aids during prime time
Goons as in Goonswarm?
yep
Gimme the NPCs back so I can do storage that way
That's impressive
When they owned half the unverse in eve, I was black legion, we went after them got them downt o a single system
Money Badger wars
All I'm saying is Srix shoulda won with close to 500 votes and we all know who forgot to vote.
ive been getting about, 160 fps cinematic on my 5090
yeah if it wasnt for the bug it woulda been a new vote record. lol.
pfffft you think i made it to 12
Must be nice ๐ฅน i have a 9070XT sitting in my closet waiting for me to buy more parts
Idk the EU's hd like 530 votes in NA in p2.5 actual continent jsut taking over a node
they did yeah for sure
Whos gonna mention Oof vs all of castus though?!
the untold story
was some good times
The avengers will arrive soon
I hope u actually give good PvP when I come back and donโt die Ina month itโs what usually happens
declaring war on 3 towns at once was peak
steven came down from the heavens to watch our war
Joeva v Winstead was fun af
TMX used DA's account PI money to go europe after that offered him safe haven in discord, hires Miruku and friends and comes back to start hiring americans to Polar, TMX can you say something about this?
I promise to hold you close and kiss you right on the forehead and then pvp you til we're both tired
Danm thatโs a better deal then Tim gave me
I mean, everyone whos ever worked with POLAR has died off.
Except us.
purge The Scourge campaign going pretty well I'd say
we have apprentice mining anywhere yet?
winstead/joeva
sweeeeet, thank you. wanted to make sure before i make a trek
I mean anyone who thought enveus wasnโt gonna self explode was delulu
Don't forget that was suggested by the yellow rat
I mean they had so many PI accounts tho... and the ones for sale too 8)
WHAT IS HAPPENING

Is aura, oso, supple, and fed alliance gonna full dodge the siege? Heard your alliance leader @untold canopy is gonna stack the rosters with level 1s instead of fighting. Defense is insanely stacked and OP surely you dont hide from the siege right? A 500+ person alliance isnt running from just polar????
Just wanna clear it up plz feel free to post your excuses below.

lmfao
Alec and Tanner would never dodge a siege just saying.
i thought it was "fed or dead". did i misread it as "fed are dead"?

I dont think top TnL guilds are known for dodging seiges
