Servers holding on all weekend just to go down last minute
this was planned to make sure all the degens can get a good nights rest before going back to work tomorrow
oakenbane is gonna be a sea of corpses
EMERGENCY MAINTENANCE
RIP CODE 30
ya same code:30
emergency? ruh roh
YOU"RE NOT REALLY SANTA
who let the intern push the patch
Time ot jump on Eve for alil 🙂
I can finally go pee
everyone watch Bad Santa while they figure this shit out.
30 min, go sleep
No warning for emergency maintenance?
Steven 😇
— 7:02 PM
@Alpha Two Realms are down for emergency maintenance. Estimated downtime is less than 30 minutes.
How long do we think the "unexpected delays" are gonna be for this oen
30 mins;3 hrs real
sleep is definitely a thing
Emergency mainenance? Hmm?
good night, ladies and gentlemen. o7
renkai chest too big. my nips falling out of my armor
#alpha-two-news message someone forsure found a new gold dupe 
Honestly shocked no one found something like that already
Any dark guilds here?
looking to join the path of the necromancers
Nah but <Swingin Richards> is recruiting. For those who like dickin' around
Good enough for me

Hello ...
legit question though, do the items that you had crafting return when the server comes back up - or are they gone?
<----- /wonders ..... any grownups in the room ?
😑
Ahahaha. Arc raiders. What a terrible slopfest that turned intop
hello all
#alpha-two-news message do Shol next 
Hello Just bought the game and waiting for servers to start checking out all the hype
Worth the wait. Shuold be soon, they said less than 30 min about 5 or so min ago
our servers full go somewhere else 
all my people are already here sorry
lol all good im just trollin
my idential twin is already here been playing a few days
so another npc with the same skin joins the party
sounds like a fresh start on vyra would be acceptable 👀
Lotharia and Pelune are up now
Vyra was smooth as butter but my friends dont want to switch(
im coming into this with knowing nothing about this game
its a alpha bro
yeah sounds like there still a lot you can do
yeah its come a long way in the past year
thats good
wait, what hype? I swear alot of the yt content ive been seeing has been neutral or negative because of the server/login issues LOL
in spite of all of that, what I've tested so far has been an enjoyable experience
Its called clickbait for engagement
im just confused about this 'hype' you speak of because I never saw any hype anywhere for the last 3 days, only frustration 
no I get it, im just trying to understand what part of the algorithm this person saw
so I could also see this same part

The hype if from those of us who bought into years and years ago, who aren't $42 redditard review bombers who cant read or understand what an "alpha" or "Early Access" is.
I guess mr latch was checking chat channels and ashes specific content creators then
i bought in via steam but I knew what to expect
so none of this phases me lmao
Glad to hear it! I hope you enjoy your experience with the rewst of us in Vera!
its also 2025 where I have 1-2 other games that I play to keep myself from feeling the frustration of 'my main game' being down
and i think more people have to accept that every piece of 'entertainment' is optimized to take your attention
so having it in just 1 game is often a thing of the past now
you all assume way to much
no love for the us servers
I didnt make any assumptions king im just wondering where u were seeing hype since i'd like to fix my youtube algorithm
Any guilds recruiting?
im a king?
Whats with EU servers coming up first? I dont know how i feel about that
lol
hello pve server! how is everyone
Because theyre not as populated as NA servers
fighting lots of bad guys?
Was this an exploit issue?
it's probably also cloud based infrastructure for eu
Most populated and lively server you mean
@stuck notch I think Ashes is on the same boat of Star Citizen, The game is promising and ambitious, given the time and funding they have had, they are getting so much hate because of how open they are with development and tests. Given the tech that they are implementing, it's actually amazing but people cant see that because "Omahgerd I cant play properly, not enough content reeeeeeeeee" but if you look at it, the amount of players and how the queue is implemented, the server meshing, everything, no other MMO other than these two has this.
i was driving to the shops earlier, i saw a girl driving while on her phone, what is wrong with people these days, no care in the world, i was shocked, so i rolled down my window and threw my beer at her
I don't think $900,000,000 in funding can be considered in the same boat... Maybe the same port? But definitely not he same boat...
Not the funding, but I mean more so on the side of how open they are with development and opening it to the public to play, people will look at the time spent and costs and think why is it not ready? when clearly they are going out of their way to implement new things that is not in the current MMO industry
me want PvE
Because those are all redditards with the attention span of a snail, who probably came from dead mmos that cater and hold your hand every step of the way, and they don't like a more refined and hardcore mmo like what Intrepid is tryig to make here.
The issue with the current state of star citizen is the lack of actual changes to the overall game itself and just funneling in half-baked content to create the illusion of progress but there hasn't been any real development with the game since last year when server meshing was introduced, and that's still a dumpster fire
😡 1 hour now?? what jackass is abusing the gold dupes this time @ polar 
dont think it's for the sun, they said emergency
some people are suspecting gold dupe
Who said it was for the sun? Praise be btw
No one said it was about the sun... They literraly did a broadcast today in game saying the sun fix would be pushed durring normal maintance.
so what happens if you were doing a caravan when it crashed?
^found the duper
in the past it just would be there when you log back in in a recovery dialog
ok cool me and the clan were doing the first one and have been greatly concerned that itll just be sitting there
Its gone...
while we wait ^
Quick touch some grass and refill the holiday nogg.
Anyone got a good link to a resource for gear progression for tanks?
crafting seems the best imo
6/8 Riverlands exp party LF lvl 13-16 Tank+Cleric when server comes back up
ok whats a good city to do this at. I know you cant exactly do it all yourself. with how skills work
Glop is life.... thanks
deff wanna clan up. this game works well with a crew. each person taking a roll
i'd go to bonfire craftsman area in the anvils, i did it on my cleric, farmed all the mats and did each profession, and now im sitting strong with nearly 1k mag power on my weapons etc
hows shol so far? what guilds have 25s
FULL
yeah shol is character locked
EXTRA FULL
OMEGA FULL
good
probs means that cant create new characters, but u can still play existing ones
luckily i made 4
I got one north 1 south just cuz queue was horrible day one
Now you have both down
lol yeah, cant win
you can just cant join as a fresh character
So is there some good shit talking in this channel since the Servers are down? Hmm.. Do I scroll up?
What? I thought this is an MMO on the internet...
its not archeage
😁
My Rogue ambushed your mom
Never played that one.
hey yunlaw
where is my glider steven
we keep it classy and only shit talk in game.... the Joeva citizen chat is going stronk for mayor elections.. lots of accusations
i wanna join that town
Ah, yes. I'm exctied to find a good Pro-Armorsmith Canidate.
is there leve rec to join
please list the accusations
baby punting.. money laundering.. guild favortism
racist dwarf beatings i heard too
ah a true offical running for office
Excellent, my chum is working.
yes one offical would not comment on if they support Dwarfs in Orc sports or not
vote thefixer joeva mayor, i hate you all the same
Yes, let the hate flow.
Isn't that an Event?

Eh, I hate that.
so equitble of you lol
no orc right?
There are a lot of Canidates Nominated.. What an honor..
so whats the best care bear guild atm
Im guessing a huge exploit was caught??
So we're saying #SholTide, right?
either that or the crash wiped the database
went through the bug posts.. saw some forced pvp flagging.. towns are stuck at lvl 3 after one goes 4.. the vassal system isnt working and towns are not locked to being 1 lvl lower...
😄
I thought they were just tired of all the floating foliage. Or are just trying to stop me from playing. I ran a crate from Joeva to Miraleth. I was steps from the turn in NPC and the NPCs all poofed.
the floating plants....
Ok, I find Alabama annoying as F, but that's a good one.
You don't like my fancy word? It's how I look down on everyone without saying it.
Ok enjoy the world if it comes back ill check back tomorroqw
Ooof. I ran a Guild Crate this time. It wasn't too bad. It was a white crate and gave me a 19th of what I needed to level the guild.. Is there a max Guild level?
summoning circle crashed server
forced crash means easy dupe
let's see im joking
who else running crates during crash? ima get em
They should of called the Summoner something like Creature handler or Druid.. Unless does it get a teleport group at upper levels?
except shol 
X_X
rip shol
Who did it
RIP
of course its Shol.
it was definitely a problem on shol then haha
Targeted
i told u
We are the problem child
wth you put in that crate that only Shol isn't up?!
I BLAME GLOP, HES THE REASON
What is this dude.. all except shol? BRUH
degenerates
Saint Steven mentioned us again. We are blessed.
we are the testees
Except ours
is there update or no
wiped my group by resummoning my pet mid fight lmao lag bomb

Hell yeah
didn't see one, probably a hotfix
What is the Jeff server and why am I not invited
Alright, they need more time for us. That meas someone here needs to confess.
RIP SHOL
i stole the cookie from the cookie jar
we will know when they complain in global about being character reset
Lol
They should just delete our server. No rollback or transfer, just delete
the crtical bug was that our server was just too good.. steve was like i give up these are the real pro gamers
I knew it!
I hope they hear us and do that!
What's special about our server
WHERE IS MY SERVER
Gone, reduced to atoms.
Zombie must have been a bad boy
[12:58 AM]Steven 😇
: @Alpha Two All realms are now open, except for Shol. We are still needing a few more minutes for Shol. Will update again shortly.
came here to ask why it's us
WHO WAS RUNNING A CRATE
/votekick Steven
WHEN THE SERVER FUCKIN POOFED lol
You ❣️
I’m assuming by now all crates have despawned
for sure T-T
HELP. Shol is not showing in the server list
not up currently
Its down.
RIP BOZO
It’s deleted
If it's down, why isn't it showing as unavailable?
They wiped Shol
its deleted, you have to reroll on vyra
welcome to alpha Shul was just too good.. expect this channel chat to change to a new server name shortly.. lol
Did Steven forget the admin password for Shol?
they're keeping it down for extra testing before it's back up. check #alpha-two-news
if shol is wiped I'll call out tomorrow, dare me
KLISTOR U ARE HEREEE?
It was early in the day. like 11am ish. PST.
THEY HATE US CAUSE THEY ANUS
12/14/2025: Shul beat Ashes of Creation..

Intrepid is not prepared!!!
f

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
5 days brother
brother
Intreped has never been prepared. (fixed)
mayor is elected in 5 days
Where do we sell our vote?
except for shol :3
Don’t vote for me. I only registered for the quest

i feel discriminated cause shol does not go back online lol
We can sell our vote? Did someone kill the server to rig the election?
Now I wanna vote for you. The best Mayor is the one that doesn't want to be Mayor.
Bro You can sell your vote as many times as someone will pay you for it.
Let's go to another realm and explode the initial zone!!!
Everyone please create a Dunir Female Tank Bald with Mustache
wtb free xfers
our server is corrupted, GG boys
lool
Update: Shol is still undergoing maintenance. Next update in 15 minutes
15 min more wtf
dont ttempt the devs.. they will say we are testing server merg and transfer tech now lol
where are serve rtansfers
so i can leave this god forsaken server
shol causing all the problems
Why would you leave the best server?
cause its down more than any other xD
im going through withdrawals im about to reroll on vyra
More for me
im game if ur game
👀
What did we so to deserve thisss
i have never seen a server so well organized as shol we are the true mvps
just means we have the best testers actually reporting bugs

"Update: Shol is still undergoing maintenance. Next update in 15 minutes"
We can only summon the queue boss together. Don't leave me here alone.
Who borked the server
guess theres a lot of accounts getting rolled back lol
Who here wants to humbly take the blame for whats happening to Shol?
My father told me that when he went to buy cigarrets
#SholTide
It was SoggyBeard. Be sure to let him know in game.
bunch of bad apples about to fuck up my "honorable" grind
Alright everyone its @glad tide fault, blame him 😮
Glob did this I bet
I don't know how, but this is all POLAR's fault.
so who is exploiting shol that get in troubles all the freaking time?
is polar recruiting?
No you fool! That's the maintenance button. Every time you press it you add 1 more minute of server maintenance.
are they even on Shol?
not this time no
No its just a continuation of a joke
whos the one whos got the 10k gold they are hunting for 👀
People keep buying my books man, cant help it
🤓 You see if they find an exploit on another server, they us Shol to fix it and rollback the other server ☝️
so you found a dupe for the books 
#FREESHOL
wish we could custom name our crafter items... would be great flavor text..
I wish they use the albion online system, showing the crafter’s name in the item’s description
I found it!
You get mat. You process mat. You make book. You make gold. Repeat.
its going to show it later one, they did not add it cause they were working on other things
I would like this muchly
I did that with XP scrolls, im still poor 
low lvl xp scrolls are useless since the job board gives 25%
just being honest with ya
ive sold probably 500 tbh lol
I was about to say the same thing
I wish we have some kind of auction house
um....
but which job boared gives 25? 
Gathering commission board, you are already gathering so might as well grab them
interesting didnt know that was a thing, ty!
I promised myself I wouldn't only gather this time around. So I've only gathered 2 settlements worth of storage space.
Its next to animal husbandry in towns
neither did 500 of your customers lol
in towns lvl 3 or higher
true lol
It wouldn’t of happened if we mined more rocks
News
[US] Shol will come back as New Realm, we had to wipe it.
troll
too many gold buyers, had to wipe everyone, try again
acceptable.. but dont name it shol.. it must be new shol or st.shol
How dare you?
sh-thole
We could spam guinea pig gifs until we get a shol-specific gunea pig emote as payment.
sorry my banana went to my head
sht-hole
Everyone, I am having trouble logging in. Is it all the Porn?? PLEASE for love of God tell me it wasnt all the Porn.

Enjoy your "free" time while shol is coming back soon
Any ETA?

No joke.. I am willing to test server transfer/merging.. it is an inevitable thing in amm most might as well figure out the tech now
WoW is dead in my eyes
Do it devs... you know you want to join th3 darkside... wipe us...
@proper igloo your time is over!
where is our Shol?
If there is a wipe I expect everyone to re-roll as a dwarf, they are the best race after all.
The fact we dont have a fat large race upsets me..
which one?
Im a little jealous I didnt pick one of the small races, I miss my everquest gnome
We don’t deserve a server
Guys
Dunir ofc.
Please... let's get Steven attention...
everyone... please mark him here!!!
to many gold buyers on our server, they are closing it down to teach us a lesson 
@proper igloo where is our Shol?
Probably
yall so demanding
Yes...
Everyone TAG HIM!
or dont
Probably I'll be banned!
STEVEN IS TYPING
No thanks.
STEVEN IS TYPING
YO HE TYPING BOIS
save us steven\
I told you
people are desperate for another announcement that theyre still working on the problem
WHAT THE FUCK
we need to get his attention
😢
Its over D:
STEVEN IF YOU SAY 15 ONE MORE TIME
Why does steven do this to us
JUST WIPE THE SERVER AT THIS POINT
Nah steven hates shol. its confirmed

Shol rollback 24 hrs
Steven is currently in a discord call discussing the situation with Glop (future mayor of Joeva)
We are the redheaded step child
Can we vote here for the mayor of Shol?

Sap for Mayor 

STEVEN NEEDS TO STREAM THIS
The sholskippers

SHOL UP
I want to thank Glop (future mayor of Joeva) for negotiating the server being brought back online
NECROMANCER BROUGHT THE SERVER BACK TO UNLIFE!
well yeah no shit its a shitty meme
WTF
Realm Up, Realm Full.
yay shol back
LOADING IN
and right in
summoning circle worked
rip, timed quest expired
MY GOAT @proper igloo
lol, all of the death
perhaps make crates an expire time of 5 mins if not picked up?!
they are already like that
just that the server restart wiped them
they reset after 20min i think
someone verify
Nope.
haven't experienced the issue
well that's another bug filed
im stuck in a building
Is it better to stay in Shol or move to Vyra? I'm level 10 so far
stay on Shol. I anticipate a server merge in the future like it did in the previous alphas lol
is that Glop?
Ok, ty
yea he is the one flashbanging the server
anybody want to kill minotaurs? LFG Fighter LVL12 , Anvils Eastern Harbor
Anyone else on Shol have issues completeing The Legion's Arm?
Anyone else experience all of their profession certifications being gone after the reboot? Logged in on a character and I can't do anything professions related, says I'm missing novice level 😅😵💫. Talking to an NPC to upgrade my certifications does nothing either.
The game is also not remembering my skill choices and it keeps resetting them to empty/null. Noticed my level bar at the bottom also says I'm level 1, but I'm level 7. Things got weird after the servers were turned off and back on tonight.
oaken sw down?
DC'd at Oaken
where were you?
north of oaken
SE side?
crossing into briar
Shol down in oak got the boot
damn yeah i got dced as i was leaving miraleth. logged into an alt just fine tho
Yeah code 37 rip my character in oak lol
seems to be back up
I'm scared ya'll
Anyone else DC? Don't know what SW we were on. Code 37 trying to get back on for my group.
Yeah I dc'd too
I had the same thi8ng but just got back in
saying realm is full
Got in. SW: 39 Just in case
oh nice, back in now yeah
F?
Guess it went down again.
cool
oof
Miraleth seems to have an issue where it's not leveling up to Town from Village, and there are now some disconnects etc
only part of server is down, i can log into strater area
damn say one tyhing about fast travel and BAM joeva blows up
are there even able to be 2 level 4 areas in riverlands?
They aren't adjacent, but idk
So I got citizenship earlier today, it was gone tonight, went and paid the glint again for citizenship and instantly im not a citizen again, anyone else having that issue?
is miraleth a town yet?
Who is the top shol guild
Boo, Bandit Commander still ain't spawning lol
New player looking for a guild for me and a couple friends. Looking for a guild that's chill, non toxic and doesn't have any requirements. Looking to learn the game. NA EST if that matters. 
My guild would be nice, but has some RP related requirements. That said, though its not my guild, a good one I can recommend is "Otter Nonsense". They're a solid all around guild, loved by the community, and are very 'new player friendly'
you can find their guild info links in the #1418327801437884616 channel
TBD. Give it another couple of weeks to let the dust settle
Nothing like upsetting the gold farmers in the morning,
Lmao... this is why we need to have tariffs on software lmao...
$150 if west Taiwan wants to log in
is there a certain level i need to be in herbalism to level up? like journeyman and such?
@kindred nymph yes
lol
What did you do? Hahah.
what level would that be at? from novice to the next level?
Every 10 lvls
Just killed him and interrupted him. He is still whispering me all types of stuff its great
For extra gold stars. Screenshot it all and report it in a ticket on website.
!cs
Include more keywords after this command to search for answers to some of our FAQ (ex. !cs password reset), or open a Customer Support ticket directly here if you are having account or technical issues: https://support.ashesofcreation.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Ive reported 6 already to CS just on shol alone
Nice work!!! Everyone should be slamming reports in.
I swear I thought a few of them were trolls. Dunno.
Fighter and cleric duo looking for guild, interested mostly in PVE and crafting, but still somewhat interested in PVP as well
node planning is already underway but if you would like to have your voice heard head on over to the shol discord

did miraleth break im sure it should bhe a town by now lol
i was wondering the same thing, it was at 100% last night
Anyone else seeing code37 error trying to connect?
yes
Im going to try and run for Mayor for KT - Will remain level headed and work with server to balance buildings and economy. Vote for me, and we can make KT and the Anvils the best place to be!
bandit commander hasn't spawned in 6+ hours
@main fulcrum @tacit viper @junior breach
His placeholder spawns every few minutes. this is nuts
something is bugged
Made sure the team is aware ❤️
ty! @junior breach
mobs not spawning such as bandit commander?
id say alot dont like, esp the spiders
Big lobbins also not spawning
Did Aven's End SW die?
no but its laggy
What a game, there's a level 17 in Highwaymen Hills killing level 10/11 and we receive XP debt for dying for him??? Wtf is this
Lolololol
welcome to Ashes of Creations, where your ashes are created by Highwaymen on a daily basis lol
that shouldnt be happening btw
only corrupt players receive exp debt
if ur actually losing exp dying to a player while ur not flagged, that's a bug and you should report the bug
the only thing you should lose is a portion of your mats in your materials bag
I think that was because I fighted back the corrupted player, but that should'nt happen too. As the wiki says:
[...] If the attacked player fights back, they are also flagged as combatants, otherwise the attacked player will remain flagged as a non-combatant.
were you in a lawless zone?
if u were in a lawless zone its possible
because lawless zones auto flag you as a combatant
No, I was in the Emberspring - Highwaymen Hills right above Winstead
100 people per single named mob or point of interest on this server what do you expect pvp all you can do at that point? Flag baiting is a thing people love to do.
Do they plan on unlocking Shol? My friend is trying to make a character
They said yesterday that its just a warning sign so get them to try?
They just did it won’t let them make a character
#alpha-two-shol-us message - maybe start an alt with them on Vyra
i mean yea..i just wanna know if they plan on unlocking it..if they dont ill just start over tbh
Hellooooo
Lol what did you do to them?
Hello! 2 casual players (fighter & cleric) looking for a casual guild on Shol. We are leveling up in the vhal area. New to the game.
anyone else getting a failed to connect to server, code 37?
hoy anyone know where to turn in completed “seven save us”? it’s showing to do it out this outpost but the npc isn’t here
New Aela?
yup, just entered the boundary
same
Yep just got it too
SUDO FOR MAYOR OF KAL TORHUM!! IM GIVING OUT TAX BREAKS AND STIMULUS CHECKS!! Make KT GREAT AGAIN!!
My storage keeps bugging and I cant open it
Sounds like you shouldnt flag up?!
By flag up you mean opening the PVP?? That's wasn't the case, the point was that one player came with the flag open and I fought back, the question was if this was intended to happen, since I didn't started the PVP and received a penalty...
Racism @proper igloo
Anyone know where to get the Ebonthread Silk from?
Is this only happening to me????? everytime I login, game works fine for about 5 mins and than I get this Discusting Rollbacking Lag that makes it unplayeable.... but I see people moving past me and playing close to me with no problem, whats goin on, I have 1Gb Fiber, I dont think its on my end.
Does anyone know where Sullied Tower is?
Just FYI @proper igloo @quick notch
Macaco = Monkey
can some people move out of miraleth
ive been in queue for like a hour
Maybe he earnt it? lol
19dps LF group radiant gear farm
If some folks could travel out of Mira, it would be great. Quite a few are stuck in queue
any other summoners unable to summon?
https://i.imgur.com/BwIm7Xu.png server crash is your fault
No Q all weekend. primetime and almost 1.5 hours to get into Miraleth area... wtf?
I'm never logging out in a city again
yeah i'm estimating my queue to take at least 3 hours. i've already been in it for an hour
It doesn't even move
They shouldn't let you fish from inside the city/town nodes
48 -> 5 is about 1.5 hours so far.
yeah i've gone from 78 -> 60 in an hour
holy fuck im not going to get in today then
it'd be great if they could do some sort of "if you've been in queue for 5+ minutes, try and spawn at a safe nearby location instead"
is there anyone we can ping to ask if there's still ongoing effort for handling queue times like this? i know the earlier one was the insane queue sizes, but idk if this is now considered the norm
has anyone tried to cancel and rejoin the server to get through?
i'm not willing to try 😅 😆 i don't think it's a bug/thing that can be bypassed like that, so i'm just gonna wait it out
servers are going down at 12am for 3 hrs
Its 6:54pm
12 what timezone
doesnt say lol
its timestamped to your timezone
It converts it to your timezone
oh it does - it's central
oh ya just notice
5 hours from now
i might be in game just in time to get the fuck outta Mira
I've moved about 3 spots in 20 min.
Is anyone else doing the "The Final Call" quest?
Were stuck on the "que" quest.
@tacit viper sorry if you're the wrong person, idk who to ping. I'm concerned about the multi-hour queue times to log in on Shol (i unfortunately logged out in miraleth). do you know if anything is being worked to try and mitigate this? or if it's "as intended" for the time being? alternatively if you don't have the info, do you happen to know who/where i could ask to find out? thanks
Captain Redblade is missing again 🙁
Shol is a busy realm, and queues are expected
We opened the Vyra realm as a way to try to mitigate this. Given player population on Shol, queues are expected, especially for high traffic areas
or or or hear me out upgrade servers to hold more people instead of sitting in a que for hours and not be able to play 🙁
rip.. ok. would be nice if there was like a "if the queue lasts X amount of time, try to relocate the person to a nearby emberspring" or something
That would be a cool system, but it would have to search local nearby SW's to do that and some people might rather not be forced to do that
pretty easy to do the search - and wouldn't be difficult at all to add a button to the UI for opt-in
but i do agree with the forcing it might not be a good idea
easy to do the search sure, but the inter-communication of the SW's could be much more complex depending on which micro-service system they are using. Also, you have to consider what if all of them are busy? what does it do then? If 2 of them are available, it has to consider which embersilk to put the player at, does it kill the player like unstuck does?
in theory yea its simple but there are a ton of edge cases to consider as well.
just warping the player to the spot could cause an issue as well as they dont have any fast travel...
i hear you - i've been a game dev for 8 years, so i know there's always things to consider. the inter-comm layer of the SW has to already be in place for the game to be at this stage, so adding a query to collect # of players in a SW would be straight forward. it's a single process to query all somewhat nearby SW's for that, then loop through them and do a couple arbitrary checks (SW contains emberspring, does it have space, etc). if any found, relocate player (not an unstuck death, because this isn't something the player can choose to make use of as a teleport in a useful way)
20+ years here.
nice 👍
a lot of my 20ish years was not in game dev but server/db stuff so i'm not quite as far in the game dev years 😆
but like I said yea its simple in theory but without knowing exactly how their back end systems are working it could be complicated
true except if they didn't have it set up for this to be simple, i'd fear for the future of the development process ...
it can't be hard at this stage or things just wouldn't go well
that's architecture that has to already be set up
earlier on in the process? would 100% agree
to be fair, alot of mmo's have some very complicated back end systems... adding a simple system to DCU was a pain lol
it has alot of issue to be fair as well
oof. yeah i suppose it depends on how the core architecture was set up to the project. i primarily do systems architecture so things like that i generally take into account. it sucks that's not always the case >.<
thats one of the games I would never want to work on again because of how they did everything
Anyone else lagging?
Nah just a super slow que
I didnt see a que at all over the weekend kinda surprised to see one now
Yeah that's why i'm not sure if it's Shol being Shol since I can get right into others and this happened after logging out to get off my mount lol. Fixed it before so I didn't think twice given I haven't had a que all day
how you doin in the que now
i gave up and decided i'm not gonna play tonight
was at 2.5hr and still 45 to go
or 2 hours .. something long enough that i lost interest. it's too long
i get it
but at the same time like bro i didnt pay $48 to sit in a que every day and not be able to play
by the time i get into the game im gonna have to go to sleep
No queue for my alt it guess
shol messing up??
Seems like Miraleth Server worker has a login que. I can login to my other characters fine, no que on Shol technically, but my main in Miraleth has a que of 138 that's moving soooooooo slow
How to report such exploit?
@proper igloo @quick notch ?
So don't log in miraleth if you toon hop tonight
yep
thats where i am
in oakbane
Is there any type of relog protection? Quite often bugs force a required relog to actually do anything (get off mount for example). Sucks to have a queue after that
That would be nice because even being aware of the bug and to avoid the que, if you get stuck or something in a bad spot it's either sit in game bugged or log and get into the que
Use /bug in game and check the exploit box
Thanks
so my friend was doing a quest the first one where you carry the backpack and he dropped on accidnet andthen it abandoned the quest and we cant figurs out how to get back
You can go abck to the questgiver, there will be other packs available. I did the same thing
it wont let him pick up the other packs
and his quests are gone now no more in the journal showing
I'd like to hear what the Miraleth mayor is doing about the population problem. Close the gates!!
@quick notch Captain Redblade is not spawned in at 2nd Sword outpost

question why wont captian Redblade spawn
45 people here waiting on same npc and no dice
So my main character was reduced to 0 exp. locking all my skills, and gathering. I didn't figure out I was locked until i got in a fight, and died so actually at -4k exp. I have my hit point and shows I'm 11th lvl but not able to do anything gathering says I need a novice level of exp.
can we get a respawn on Captain Redblade? i now have 3 quests to turn in to him. @quick notch
Wait we can be Carebears? 
joeva crasha gain?
Unable to connect to server code 37?
ok its joeva ,m i can log in the anvils OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOF
man this is why vhalgadim is the best node lol
no fookin q times and no crashing xD
Yep I was in joeva, same thing
same crashed near joeva with my 2 crates D:
dynamic grid harder joeva!!!
#SHOLTIDE
its up
So from the gif above I take it all the tryhards are on their original server?
sigh
well, I definitely died
it's joeva
anyone else locked out of their citizen storage in Joeva?
legend
got my weaponsmithing so close to level 10, I can taste it
then big spellsword upgrade
Now everyone will know.
wtf am i supposed to do for 3 hours

pfft
i need to kill more 3 star mobs
25 aint gonna farm itself
Yes, you got this, I believe in you :3
Obviously work on irl deliverables enough to let company function. And then put in for a mental health days til Jan 9th....
6 days off around chrimas bubbie
my production and generation of shareholder value is absolutely awful, fire me
(so i can grind more 3stars)
I just filled in "will have laptop on" from the 22nd to the 9th lmao
Nap - then rise and grind
how soon till shol gets a smithy up?
both cities focusing on construction iirc
think joeva is doing weapons and mira doing others
idk how long itll be, probably a while
Man , I was hoping to take a nap ... but im not tired i only woke up like 4 hours ago man
LETS GO
lol but EAC erros out the ass
did you close and update steam?
Did we get the Sun Light fix?
you guys dont praise the sun god over there on shol xD
@quick notch Hello, we are currently developing a plugin to translate in-game text, and it's almost finished. Would the game developers allow us to use this translation plugin?
heres a list of some shol gold sellers in need of a ban hammering
damn thats about half the list i have hahaha
raise a ticket
anyway, would be easier if we have an option "report player"
Don't we have any suggestion channel?
wats code 31
Counter Strike?
I do find it crazy that gold sellers even have business in an alpha where we're literally gonna wipe every 2-3months or so
Like how stupid are people? LOL
Actually comical

Select report a player from the dropdown

Btw margaret, we are noticing several bosses not respawning inside of POI's. It's been 2 hours without a single boss spawn inside ursine caves
Yeah, AoC won't even launch.
Do you really think that's the easy way?
It's the only way so either do it or don't 
I have voiced my concerns on this as well. For now, this is the only approach they're giving us to report players for any reason including RMT unfortunately.
\o/
there needs to be a ignore gold seller tab. just to keep it organized long term
ignore and report
well yeah but at some point we may hit a ignore list limit. IDK how many accounts I can ignore 500, 1000, infinite?
Nah. Like 50
Purge them in the Light's name. FOR THE EMPEROR!
are we really wiping every 2-3 months like losing characters? ;-;
an old pic of phase 1 when @slate ore hosted a picture at the end of the server
was good times :)
First mother of pain kill on a live server ... even tho they had to nerf it to lvl 35 xD
Well it depends. See if everyone would just share exploits with the devs so they can get patched and people didn't feel some weird ego trip to necessitate providing business to gold sellers in a wiping alpha then...well...we wouldn't need to wipe at all until the majority of this testing phase concludes
@gentle ruin @arctic pike @frail nebula @upper python bot suspect
However, like many things in life, we are our own worst enemies.
The bad actors will gatekeep and attempt to do game ruining things and engage in game warping behaviors for temporary enjoyment rather than supporting the longterm vision of contributing to the next game they can call home
Thus ruining the experience for the many people who do report and work towards creating a great game
So @sharp vigil you should expect a couple wipes, but do what u can to enjoy content with in-game friends and ur guild while trying to report any sus activities you see
Best place to grind at level 9?
Anyone got a hippo yet.. that is my goal get a hippo before monday
Does anyone know if new players can come to Shol? I know it says server is full but I wasn’t sure what’s up with all that. If not does anyone know if it will be expanded? I have a friend who wants to come play, any info would be helpful.
/bug and report it
I don't know
If it's full probably not
might be in the same situation soon, hope they can join Shol 
i hope so too
Server capacity is 5k and we're technically full but depending on the time of day and standard player drop off ur friends will probably be able to get in and play
Whoever's guild this belongs to needs to hurry up and finish this before they get raided
Wtf is that? We can build in game?
lol no, just meme-ing. I'd imagine it's a placeholder LOD for the bridge that's there
construction sites still missing in Dhurgrum
Anyone know when the Vhalgadim Village election will end? I am curious to know who we got!!!
A BOAT
is there any other SHOL server discords
i think its the PoI that loads in above ground for some reason
Where should I become a citizen? Should I just pick where I am spendig the most time or should I consider other factors?
Well, there are some factors to consider. You can go to a big settlement and help maintain it and enjoy its benefits. You could also go to a smaller more fresh settlement to help shape it and be a part of it. Where you like to hang out is a big factor tho
why do we need to join a not official Shol server?
You dont
Anyone else doing "The Final Call" Quest?
Someone wants to feel special.. I feel dirty even using this.. make citizen chat great again lol
Anyone ever have a bug that reset you to level 1?
Buddy got hard reset, and relogging originally fixed it, but it happened gain and now hes just hardstuck at 1
Did your buddy pick up a type of quest? Comission specifically. I think I heard there was one that bugged you out. Try dropping them and then relogging.
nobody needs to do anything it's just far easier to organize in a seperate discord as this one is not set up for proper communication on a per server basis. If you are just playing and having fun and don't care what other people are up to then don't even worry about it.

This guy Larry from <LF TANK> is straight up macroing while in a party in SB.
@proper igloo
We kicked him and he's still sitting in the corner casting
not even good rotation...macro better....
Did a bunch of OG guilds go Shol for P3? It's the only full server
I rolled on Resna to play with a buddy but I'm worried about a certain guild just destroying everyone else lol
ya there is a pretty big veteran population here
is the discord link a few chats up the most active one?
Ya all new to me.. and i haven't seen streamers, though maybe they are in the other side of map from me
@noble elk I miss you come home
is that you puppygirl
No
has anyone found this 9th hint?
It's in the water on the west side of the peninsula
There's a pillar underwater on its side
can i go under water?? x doesnt work
nvm i figured it out
is on the shore line fallen over in the sand close to the island.
not this one lol?
nope it is laying on its side fallen toward the island.. go close to the beach
thanks, i feel so stupid, i ran over it like 15 times
Still relevant
Is anyone else experiencing this cancerous freeze frame bullshit and have any solutions??
Turn off frame gen and any dlss
Is Darkening Deep still bugged?
Who won KT mayor?
Congrats to Greymaker!
Has anyone seen Bellygrit? @quick notch This has not been located and an only option for Beer in Kal Torhum with a selection of flowers. I've searched all over for the item "Bellygrit" in benches and vendors. While other towns requirement for beer is Blackberry and a selection of tier 1 plants ours is this item.
Yeah I was trying to figure that too. Looks like a missing recipe... Could it be a by product of something and not really listed?
Anyone in a really long que for Shol'? i went to switch toons and it's been over an hour from like 80 or so to 31 in que.. <sigh> just trying to connect everyone on the guild.. 🙁
its based on the serverworker and riverlands side has a longer queue than anvils
Yeah I figured something like that. I think the toon I'm switching to is in Joeva too, which probably is worse.. It would be nice if we saw what times are before we select the toon as that can impact choice and play. Plus once in que don't want to leave.. I did that on accident one day it sucked.
thats a good bit of feedback !
https://discord.com/channels/256164085366915072/1365494991509782558
I also wish that was the case haha
Wow, someone was saying crafting salves is too complicated. You need Snow or Daff and that is all.. I mean XP scrolls only require a Ruby.. I get that the how to is shit and you have to poor thru things. But since they got rid of fuels.. soooo much easier.
anyone else laggin on shol
gang gang
anyone know how to fix connection time out? cant load into shol
Have they mentioned anything about the terrible spawns/lack of spawning of hunting mobs in the Anvils?
Sup yall is there a group up north putting in work on Vexhelm? would like to contribute to the development.
Is there a table at joeva to make the crates to run other places?
yes, past couple days has been fine but today has been bad for me
LF 17+ TANK FOR MINOS, anyone down?
try creating a new character in the anvils, then logging out and back to your guy on the riverlands side
how do we repair gear guys ;-; pls and ty
any vendor, bottom left
ty Derm
anyone else been crashing alot since last nights update?
Same with Wolves in Riverlands
Falling through Joeva. Exiting the game and waiting 15 mins didn't fix
I just kept falling the game auto reloaded and fixed it in mira
Please fix this sun bright
Been falling 5 mins
<@&519722995778977812> tidewarden and aria the flamebearer haven't been spawning for several hours on shol
I tried equipping my book but it keeps putting it in the secondary option (scepter as first option). I wanna use my book as my first option when entering combat. How can I do that?
secondary is ranged
swap weapon
Is there a way to permanently start with book?
?
Or when I press Q to switch weapon I will always start combat with that weapon?
It looks like we can copies of Riverland vendors again this phase.
anyone else got a que on shol?
I do... been sitting in que for a while now
I think it's a feature not a bug. I don't like it either.
The que is if your toon is in the Riverlands. If you have one up north your good.
Maybe just the big towns.. <shrug>
Anyone have an idea why I cant craft a moltenbrand longbow in Kal Thor or Vhalgadim? Needs WoodshopService Building
Yeah I logged in the Riverlands... no character up north. Maybe it's a sign to create a new character on Vyra. Went through the que and got an error
I'm in queue also ! I'm also thinking about a character on Vyra at this point. 😛
HELP! im in a spot where i can't unstuck
any gm's online?
i relogged... i just live here now..
nvm.
Is the server down?
I'm on, fishing
