alpha-two-lotharia-eu

[viscid cove]

at this point just go play league of legends if ur that blood-hungry for all of the time pvp

[versed marsh]

They can either flag to contest or give it up

[mossy bramble]

See I don’t mind that, I just have concerns it’ll lead to more griefing than it solves

[versed marsh]

That should be how it works as a minimum I feel

[keen scarab]

It will

[still vine]

Yes please, I need more people jumping me to take that common Ash tree from me

[keen scarab]

And It results on a dogshit gameplay of Who spam the gather button First instead of fighting

Dmg to interrupt gathering Is not the solution

[viscid cove]

if u allow perma purple ur just gonna hve groups of 5 people jumping anyone in an area for no reason and griefing people constantly

[distant hill]

I won’t be able to damage lvl 6 gatherer tho cause i might one shot them

[versed marsh]

Its a step in the right direction tho

[keen scarab]

No, people fight for resources

[mossy bramble]

Leave my fishing alt alone

[still vine]

well, level 6 gatherer won't be gathering a resource you need unless you are also level 6, meaning you won't oneshot then

[viscid cove]

sure buddy, of course, youre so right, have u ever seen how people act in open pvp zones in other games? Theyre animals. If there is a way to grief someone, they will do it for shits and giggles

[versed marsh]

Like Jayco says there is nuance to this

[distant hill]

Im gonna make shit ton of White lvl 20 gear and corrupt on all the fishermen

[keen scarab]

There Is no griefing in open pvp zones

[distant hill]

[versed marsh]

Unironically do this would be hilarious

[keen scarab]

Griefing happens in pve zones

Because u can Just kill the griefer in a pvp zone

[viscid scroll]

At this point I’m kinda just giving up on any games really wanting a hardcore mmo PvP experience people are just to soft man rust is the only game that can scratch the itch even though i really want a mmo to

[distant hill]

Maybe in their mind Killing people in a pvp zone is griefing tho

[mossy bramble]

That’s pretty funny actually

[distant hill]

[viscid cove]

"u can just kill a griefer" LMAO, a group of tryhards on discord killing every newbie they see and u think anyone has a fighting chance?

[versed marsh]

Guys, lawless isn’t as terrifying as you think it is

[viscid scroll]

Rise up peasant

[mossy bramble]

It’s actually good fun

[keen scarab]

Killing Is not griefing

[versed marsh]

We had a bunch of 21 rogues fuck with our lvl 14 party and we successfully killed them until they called for back up

[viscid cove]

its basically spawn camping

[keen scarab]

I think this game might Just not be for u

[mossy bramble]

Did they come back after I left lol?

[distant hill]

Why take the risk of going in a pvp zone then, keep to your safe zone

[versed marsh]

Yup, and they brought friends

[keen scarab]

How can u spawn Camp? Everybody has a home teleport when they die

[still vine]

Except a gatherer doesn't have the slightest chance of killing the griefer..
1 - griefers are often max level, while gatherers.. not that often
2 - gear difference is massive. My legendary lumberjack axe doesn't help against your legendary sword
3 - griefers are herd animals, while gatherers prefer being alone

[keen scarab]

So ur complaining that people with Better skills and Gear kill u?

[viscid cove]

id say the same thing for u cuz ur advocating for a perma purple way of playing the game and that is just not a viable state

[mossy bramble]

Rude tbh

[viscid cove]

and it will never be

[keen scarab]

Im advocating for fighting over resources

As this game Always advertised

[viscid scroll]

The pvers won we lost we gotta rap it up

[viscid cove]

youre hiding the bloodlust of killing lowbies behind the excuse of fighting for resources

[keen scarab]

Remember when Steven said that scarcity Is the best way to promote player friction?

[versed marsh]

Im not as hardcore on the pvp side and I agree with Ado, that functionality is kinda fundamental to the core game design

[still vine]

Complaining? No. Just saying that a gatherer has basically no chance of winning in a pvp setting.

[keen scarab]

U cant kill them if they dont flag

[keen scarab]

Get good? Idk what to tell u

"people Who are Better at the game than me are more succesful, pls intrepid change that"

Thats how u sound

[distant hill]

Really not, but why would i let a lvl 6 Steal my shit, go level up and come gather/fight me after

[viscid scroll]

lol no one cares about kill low levels u guys don’t matter only shitty players like envues care about that

[distant hill]

If you want to steal my shit

Be ready to fight for it

[viscid cove]

guys, u just "GET GOOD" instantly whenever a group of 8 people who play 12h/day jumps on 1-3 players

[mossy bramble]

PvX means both sides that integrate well. Have artisan rewards through a PvP system, Ezpz

[still vine]

Can you link a message where I asked for a change?

[keen scarab]

Also crafters are already so powerful, they are the only way to get bis gear

[keen scarab]

U should ask for a change since the current iteration Is dogshit

[viscid cove]

all of these PVP-maxxing andies will bring nothing but trouble

[viscid scroll]

What do pvers provide in a game that has no pve….. I’ll wait

[versed marsh]

I think some of you are scared of a problem that is mitigated by a bigger map and higher tier gatherables spawning in areas that lowbies are unlikely to be in

[still vine]

I am having fun as is, so I don't need that

[keen scarab]

Yeah i dont understand if u dont like pvp why even play this game? Pvp currently Is the only decent aspect of the game bc of the combat system

Pve, gathering, crafting etc.. are the worst aspects of the game

[mossy bramble]

@keen scarab did you see the arena news?

[versed marsh]

Until November when fishing is BIS gameplay loop

[keen scarab]

I stopped listening to what Steven says

[versed marsh]

[viscid scroll]

OH NO I REALLY NEED TO FKING CRAFT THIS LEGO BOW SO I CAN KILL GREMS WITH IT AHHH IM SUCH A GOOD PVERRR

[keen scarab]

I really dont care about all his bullshit

[neat barn]

gathering is fun though? And crafting isnt too slow at all, simply the Wait is all thats annoying. Go to tropics, farm 500 Vulcanic rock, slap it in the smelter, 5 hours later: Boom, Apprenice Smelting. Most of this stuff is doable like this in 1-2 farming loads.

Just get an understanding of it 😮

[versed marsh]

Fun is subjective

[still vine]

You are wasting your time here...

[neat barn]

ofc, yeah

[bleak badge]

Out of curiosity, how much does smelting 500 volcanic rock cost in terms of reagent + processing fee?

[neat barn]

right, and you are not

[keen scarab]

Yeah thats sounds horrible to me bur everybody enjoys different things

[neat barn]

think it was like 70 silver ?

maybe 1g, not sure

[versed marsh]

You get double fucked by the tax rate processing now

[still vine]

What I mean is that explaining crafting to Ado is not gonna change anything... They are a PvP player, so unless the rock is in a player's inventory, it's not interesting

[versed marsh]

I’ll vote for anyone who gives me low taxes, BUY MY VOTE

[viscid scroll]

Okay but crafters serve the PvPs like this is not a pve game ur number one customer are PvP players so kinda doesn’t make sense to bitch about PvP

[viscid cove]

LMAO "your number one customer base is pvp players" what a dream

[still vine]

My #1 customer is me.

[neat barn]

XD

lol

[keen scarab]

Pvp players are also the most hardcore gatherers and crafters btw

[viscid scroll]

ALL U CRAFTERS FKING SUCKK

UR TRASH

SCUM

HORRIBLE

[keen scarab]

[viscid scroll]

NOW GIVE ME MY LEGO BOW BEFORE I GKICK U

that’s how the convo would go don’t lie to urself

[viscid cove]

say one example of a MMO that is pvp-focused that is not a niche

[neat barn]

im not bitching about PvP? Im saying the PVE aspect is quite doable, and not overtuned I think. As soon as apprentice stuff is ready, i have multiple professions ready to craft apprentice gear. And then sell/PvP with it... i think its enjoyable atm!

[keen scarab]

Albion?

[viscid scroll]

None there all niche this is a niche game

[keen scarab]

Albion Is not that niche come on, sure maybe compared to wow of ff

But its doing pretty good

[still vine]

There are overlaps, naturally.
Distinction between a hardcore 12 hours a day player and casual 2 hours a day player is also a major factor.

And I feel like the most discord PvP happens between Hardcore PvP and casual artisans

[keen scarab]

Def not mortal online levels

[viscid cove]

at this point really buddy if u want 100% pvp just go play FPS games or MOBAs

[queen monolith]

funny enough not for rock smelting

[viscid scroll]

Yah but if u want good pve go play wow/ff14 lost ark elderscrolls like there all pve focused

[queen monolith]

its 8c wherever you do it. but the reagent is more expensive in node so you have to haul it from stoneworks

[viscid scroll]

I’ve already been there done that now I’m onto MMOs don’t like it sorry

[keen scarab]

Most discord pvp happens between people Who know nothing about the game and people Who actually play It

[neat barn]

?????????????????????????? IM LITERALLY NOT COMPLAINING xD Im saying its good man... typical PvP player just tryna ragebait lol

[versed marsh]

You can use the whole “go play X instead” argument against every player base

[viscid cove]

thew gaslighting is insane in this one

[keen scarab]

It Is what It Is

[viscid scroll]

Oh I might be understanding u wrong sorry

[queen monolith]

casual artisans should never expect to make epic or legendary gear. steven has said so numerous times

[viscid scroll]

Not rage baiting rn I promise

[keen scarab]

EXACTLY

U GUYS THINK A RANDOM CRAFTER WHO PLAYS 2H X DAY WILL EVER BE ABLE TO MAKE THE BEST LOOT IN THE GAME?

[viscid scroll]

No but they do lol

[keen scarab]

Recipes Will be gatekept by big pvp guilds Who control the territory

[queen monolith]

steven even once said "the making of a legendary wold boss item should be server wide news*"

[viscid cove]

you dont see the demise in your logic of fully open world pvp game? with crafing and gearing and bag loss? it will NEVER work it will NEVER be a full PVP game it will always fail if it caters to PVP players as they will get sick of killing each other whenever the resource of new/casual players is no longer, it will always cannibalize

[still vine]

I think this is missing "by themselves".

I can play 20 minutes a day and make leg high jm weapon if my guild feeds me

Disclaimer: Theoretical situation if I in fact had an active guild

[mossy bramble]

Can’t wait for the 50,000 wood requirement for a lvl 50 item

[queen monolith]

this but unironically

[still vine]

Better get choppin

[mossy bramble]

No I’ll be busy

[viscid scroll]

To be fair this idea in general is doa unless perfect execution mmos is moving to instances solo world mmo sometimes slop wow and the new Chinese/ Korean MMOs will prove this

[keen scarab]

Pvpers Will rule the game, Just take the L

[viscid cove]

you are dreaming and the harsh reality will hit you

[keen scarab]

Im not, they already do

[viscid scroll]

That’s every game thou casuals legit never win and then cry and mald and move on to slop

Rinse repeat

[versed marsh]

I think if you’re expecting to be top dog with zero pvp interaction on Ashes than you may need to do some reading on the wiki

[keen scarab]

Like wtf are u gonna do when i Will siege Ur node

U gonna craft?

[mossy bramble]

People will respect my fishing boat

[still vine]

I will craft a caravan to take me into a different node

[viscid scroll]

He’s gonna alt f4 hop on wow and cope with his dad friends

[mossy bramble]

I’ll craft defenses like Fortnite

[keen scarab]

U cant Ur whole storage Will be locked

[viscid scroll]

That’s not how that works lol

[keen scarab]

Surprise siege declarations Will be so good i cant wait

Imagine people losing their shit cause they cant access their storage

[versed marsh]

Little bro we will blockage you with our 50 fishing vessels like Nabu in Episode 1

[still vine]

Well, unless you lock the forest, I don't see how that's stopping me

[mossy bramble]

Pvpers are not prepared for the Fools Garden Fleet

[keen scarab]

This game desperately needs node death

[mossy bramble]

Too bad that’s at least 6 months away

[versed marsh]

6 months?

Behave

[keen scarab]

Idk about that

[versed marsh]

Actually we might have a level 4 node by then so…

[keen scarab]

We had a gm telling us that Is currently functional on Dev branch

[mossy bramble]

No, havnt you heard we’re going djinna

[dense stump]

November update probably delayed to Feb, so node siege some time in 2027 TBH 😂

[versed marsh]

Go farm Najash then and leave Carphin

[keen scarab]

And i trust a random gm way more than Steven

[versed marsh]

My 28xp per sandstone isn’t going to get the job done quickly

[mossy bramble]

I don’t wanna farm anymore I wanted to get my professions up today but instead I have to play cs

[mossy bramble]

Play another game?

[thorny haven]

but now im a pver wooot

[zealous pebble]

ok, in that case: PvP sux

[zealous pebble]

and you suck at pve!

[thorny haven]

its ok im a farmer

[versed marsh]

Boom, roasted

[zealous pebble]

[thorny haven]

and in pve i was ranked 4th on wow on vanilla lol

but ok lol

[zealous pebble]

I was ranked first while playing bored

[thorny haven]

for my server

my twinkies was ranked top 15 for lvl 19 class ranger

[zealous pebble]

My twinkles is only 12 inches high, sorry

can't top your 15

hey guys, have you heard about the EU server shutting down forver? now its only going to be US servers

[mossy bramble]

https://tenor.com/view/madagascar-penguins-of-madagascar-skipper-bait-clickbait-gif-7373851025472833661

[zealous pebble]

[proper cairn]

its fine, EU is dead anyways

[crimson salmon]

https://tenor.com/view/minions-tuesday-happy-good-morning-gif-27268042

[dry plover]

I’ve only heard bad things about the US server. Funny enough.

[keen scarab]

I pray everyday for this

[subtle adder]

im curious do you guys have an encampment?

[dry plover]

The US guys?

[subtle adder]

nah does eu or lotheria have an encampment? heard low pop and all

[keen scarab]

This Is winstead rn

[versed marsh]

Less stones

[pure knot]

Yea

Just no village yet, about 50% to one

[minor owl]

Winstead is village soon

[versed marsh]

I mean vs NA we’ve lost what, 9-10 hours of “primetime” since launch

[mossy bramble]

yeah that hasn't helped

[versed marsh]

We’re definitely more than that away from leveling Winstead

[pure knot]

While it doesn’t help it’s not the sole reason, we are a lower player count

[versed marsh]

Which is odd, because its pretty finite play space

[nimble light]

any tips besides touching grass - during the server downtime ?

[dry plover]

The way I see things currently. Is the idiom saying “It's not a sprint, it's a marathon.”

[keen scarab]

Ye but if pop Is low so soon into the server what happens in a month time

[pure knot]

Are you a crafter or gatherer?

[pure knot]

Yea we are seeing low numbers, so not sure maybe they wipe eu on the summoner and sub classes release and go full in 1

I’m still playing either way

[nimble light]

i play solo so i feel like im both

[keen scarab]

This Is why a mega server would have been great, but some guilds Just cant keep their mouth shut

[dry plover]

Doesn’t matter if it’s dead or not. Things will get done. If things change. Things change. Just don’t force people to play a particular way.

[pure knot]

Gl my solo friend, but I’d recommend looking at ashes codex and prepping for what kind of materials you need for apprentice gathering and crafting

Then figure out a route you might want to take to get that stuff

[pure knot]

I’m indifferent, I like full EU because when I’m asleep so are a majority of others so the community is condensed into playing all at one time

However if it was eu and na in one I basically wouldn’t interact with half the players

But on the other hand more players on a single server means more chances at content

[dry plover]

As a person trying to play with US tune on their timezones. Its not fun. Where my sleeping schedule got destroyed. That it started affecting my health.

[keen scarab]

I get that and thats super fair argument

But i do believe that having an alive server 24/7 couterweights the downsides

[dry plover]

I try to avoid playing US side of things. As much they keep saying come play with us on multiple games.

[pure knot]

Yea after all this is all for making the game better, if intrepid needs everyone on a single server to do testing, then that’s their call

People that don’t like that can come back at beta when it splits again

[keen scarab]

Yeah i Guess the worst part Is that they did Say that another mega server would be beneficial for them, Just to cave in when some people complained

[nimble light]

its kinda funny that rogues can use weapons like the 2h great axe and still have access to their "rogue" skills like backstab -
great Class Identity

[zealous pebble]

Let me backstab you with my 2H MACE!

[pure knot]

It’s a hard balance to appease the community and their tests. I’m just glad I’m not the one making the choice it’s impossible to keep everyone happy

[nova heath]

there is no class identity between weapons

which is also the point

nothing is locked

[pure knot]

Yea I love being a tank with a wand

[minor owl]

it's fun people thinking im a rogue when I run around with daggers, rogue with heal skills 😄

[pure knot]

Haven’t had a good bow drop yet but I got a decent phys wand

[nova heath]

you can, if its against your immersion you dont have to

[nimble light]

i get it like a sword or a spear even maybe 2h sword - but backstab with a mace or axe is new to me xd

[nova heath]

i wish that were the only issue i had with the game

[nimble light]

no issue just - as i said its just new to me 😄

[pure knot]

If you’re new I’d seriously consider not playing solo

The big thing for this game is the community and social trading aspect

[dry plover]

Last I remember the mega sever happening. Some EU guilds banded together. Destroyed the US players completely. That they didn’t want to come on for a time and then that passed. I heard the US players started fighting with a particular group of people that the EU people shrugged and the US players focusing on something else. The EU players did their own thing.

But as far as history goes now. I believe. At least what the difference is in history of the servers currently. Ive been hearing. Is that the US players are disorganised and constantly fighting one another. Whilst I hear EU side of players are more organised in trying to (still) figure out mayorship and plans.

[pure knot]

I’m not sure, it’s quite civil atm but we haven’t had any elections yet there could still be sniping etc

Also I didn’t play 2.5 so missed the drama

[dry plover]

I played at the start and saw the loops beginning to form. Until I heard the conclusions of those story with the guild I am part with.

I stopped playing at the start. Waiting for phase 3 etc

[lunar osprey]

can me someone give a real quick run down off all the major guilds in eu and what their goals are?

Would prefer that only guild members would represent themselves. Dont care about your current drama. Just wanna know what i can expect if i see your tag

[glass belfry]

What do you mean you don't care about the current drama? That's a half of the gameplay.

[brave sage]

Check the eu-guild-recruitment channel.

[lunar osprey]

just wanna know if your guild is focusing on pvp, crafting, has a goal, or just wants to troll

[lunar osprey]

ah thx, somebody pointed me here

[ripe sand]

haha nah go recruitment. all guilds post their ambition there

take some time to read though

all guilds have their niche

[abstract kayak]

I wonder if it is worth it on the server to get better tools now or wait untill a building is up in a node.

[ripe sand]

well the tools are not yet fixed for artisan.. but personally I consider it wise to grind up to your desired tool

problem is that you need weapon crafts that you know can reach level 10 as it cannot be player made any more

[glass forge]

Have materials ready for it

The minute the bench comes up it’s gonna be a race to collect all the next tier shit that’s been growing

[brave sage]

Most guilds have all types of players, from pvp-ers, pve-ers to trolls. Some are more hardcore then others, usually an indication on the sort of drama/trolling you can expect.

[glass forge]

And trust me, you’re gonna lose that race

[ripe sand]

true. without a level 10 weaponsmith ready though that race might be relatively narrowed down to a few guilds 😂😝

[abstract kayak]

You see, like @brave sage said, trolls 😄

[glass forge]

Not trolling, just facts. There are guilds with level 10 weaponsmiths already done and materials gathered for 10+ gatherers

[ripe sand]

oh for sure man

[abstract kayak]

Looking forward to the construction of the settlements in the world. I think it will add so much to the gameplay coming forward this week.

[shrewd wren]

There are solo players with 10 weaponsmithing too. (me for instance) It's not that hard, just expensive.

[ripe sand]

exactly

i kinda would have liked to do that

just felt unobtainable

[glass forge]

Yup there will be people like that too, but you’re fighting a losing battle against dozens of others to collect the first major wave of T2 resources

[ripe sand]

maybe a nice project for when I'm bored.

[abstract kayak]

I wonder how to make money in a rather good pace. What I found was woodcutting did a good job at it, low repair costs and high yield (adults trees only)

[shrewd wren]

Yeah I'm going on holiday tomorrow so I'm losing by default 🥲 Was hoping the apprentice benches would come up before then

[glass forge]

We’re probably still a ways out from apprentice benches

[abstract kayak]

Like someone stated before, no one other then myself can make gathering tools for lvl 10+?

[ripe sand]

PvE glint makes good money.. once markets are out people will buy anything you have too of resources you're not donating

[ripe sand]

that changed

[glass forge]

Yeah you can trade the tools now

[ripe sand]

I like that tbh.

[abstract kayak]

Nice! Just trying to get my facts straight. Been out of the running for a bit.

[glass forge]

Should have been like that in the first place

[ripe sand]

reminds me of runescape woodcutting axes back in 2001 xd

[glass forge]

Every tool replacement before just deleted it

[ripe sand]

yeah

[abstract kayak]

I think on some ideas intrepid (or steven) have sound great in the mind but do not work in the world they created so far.

[ripe sand]

I kinda feel like levelig weapon smithing now. damn you

😂😂😝

[abstract kayak]

Same, now I wanna do that as well 😉

But I am doing animal husbandry now and that is taking a LOT of money ....

[ripe sand]

yeah that's hard

but it is good profit though

if you get 20 by journeyman's

[keen scarab]

I wish but this bobs dont want to

[abstract kayak]

Depends on what you ask, been debating howmuch I should/would/could sell something for with the current economy in the game being there. So getting it started takes 75 Silver. Then there is a 50/50 chance it either being a carriage or mount. If it goes wrong it is, in this stage of the server, wasted if it is a carriage unit. Then if to sell it, 80 Silver? 90 Silver? 1Gold? Because of the 50/50 you preferably wanna ask 1.5G to get 2 done and hopefully 1 will be a mount you can ride.

[light brook]

any idea when the server is supposed to come back up?

[ripe sand]

probably few can pay 1.5g though

[abstract kayak]

Check #alpha-two-news there should be your real time there.

[ripe sand]

but at the same time, I see your point

In my broke as guild most people have barely passed 20 silver.... hahaha

[light brook]

ahh I see it now, thanks. must have over looked it

[pearl apex]

i would have passed 5g if arcane engineering crafts wouldn't be that fucking expensive 👨🏼‍🦯

[abstract kayak]

So the current market would be more inclined to ask for those who want to buy a 145% or 140% mount speeds would pay? Like a survey.

[ripe sand]

i would pay 1g. then I'd still have leftover for repairs lol

[abstract kayak]

You rich! 😄

[ripe sand]

right.. I'm doing the same shit I do every phase

level every class to 12 before making up my.mind which to push to 25

as thus lagging behind lol

[abstract kayak]

I noticed woodcutting and commissions, if those 2 are combined, give me the most money and/or glint.

What class you working on now?

[ripe sand]

city commisions or lionhold?

[abstract kayak]

City.

[ripe sand]

currently.. my fighter

[abstract kayak]

Then you also get exp for that city and the boxes.

[ripe sand]

i gotta try that

[abstract kayak]

Gathering commisions are when a node (hh,,,...hfge SETTLEMENT) is lvl 1 or 2.

[ripe sand]

😂

one i believe. I think crossroads can do them

[abstract kayak]

Also boxes can give some Guild Exp. I know the little item gives only 1 but if the guild works together, you gotta start somewhere.

[ripe sand]

So lets say you gotta cut down 20 Oak trees. 20 x adult trees is 5 (some rare occasion you get 6) logs. You get glint from the quest, mostly 1 green or a bit more. Also xp, city xp and profession xp when doing it.

A stack of 20 wood (common) is 1 S and that times 5 is 5 Silver. Hitting something will decrease the axe by 3 and costs 2 copper. So total costs are 40 copper probably and you get 4 silver and keep 60 copper profit. The the glint if you sell it, is 1S at a minimum. Then the 3 boxes you get, those can drop scrolls, guild token, potions for healing etc. All of this for 30 minutes of work?

[void bane]

yo

[abstract kayak]

Hi!

[void bane]

i wanna play

[abstract kayak]

The game?

[void bane]

yay

[abstract kayak]

Ahh ok, sorry, mind isn't in the right place. We can this evening!

Play the game that is

[outer creek]

Is this what contesting cartel is like?

[outer creek]

If you see The cartel run away.
if you see Holiday, expect to get griefed.
if you see KDS expect rp'ers
if you see Dark Star expect furries
if you see Actual Pirates let me know so i can farm them, ty 🙂

[golden jetty]

off the top of my head this phase I think it's like:

Cartel, Holiday, Havoc = PvP focused
Everyone else = semi-active PvX/crafting/community focused guilds

[paper hawk]

Wait did Actual Pirates show up on EU?

[ripe sand]

gets better at high level too. the journeyman stuff you can gather and sell sells for tons

[abstract kayak]

If you see anyone from 2nd Wind, expect friendly hugs 😄

[paper hawk]

They skeered of NA so came to attempt to bully us?

[keen scarab]

Holiday

[abstract kayak]

I think the yourneyman, if not mistaken for Phase 1 and 2, sell for 25S for a stack of 20.

[paper hawk]

EU is so chill I love it here.

[golden jetty]

I hate it here

[paper hawk]

Good PVP with way less drama

[keen scarab]

There Is no good pvp

[golden jetty]

I want a server merge

[keen scarab]

This server Is a graveyard

[abstract kayak]

Phase 1 EU was so chill. Phase 2 got a lot more PvP

[paper hawk]

https://tenor.com/view/wambulance-waaaa-wah-gif-13148745021940740568

Everyone is either leveling, or some are even max level and go to Highwayman Hills as a lawless zone to kill lvl ~10

[golden jetty]

https://tenor.com/view/gods-will-dean-winchester-jensen-ackles-supernatural-gods-plan-gif-20385076

[keen scarab]

No way someone would do that

[paper hawk]

If EU is so awful go NA, or can you not hack it there and picking on newbies is more your speed.

[abstract kayak]

Someone no, some guild called cartel steamrolled through it with their lvl 24/25 players 3 days ago it was I believe. Died myself there. It is what it is.

[golden jetty]

why would I go NA when I can just force a server merge

[jagged kite]

Kinda based man

No way i know cartel they are gatherers

[young oasis]

Do u think there's hope the server will be up earlier than stated?(

[abstract kayak]

Seems they are, gathering corpses. Maybe you and I are talking about different cartel guilds, could be

[outer creek]

They came to do pve things in a dead server

I get it tbh

Thats why I want to farm them now

[keen scarab]

Maybe yeah, the ones i know suck at the game

[marsh citrus]

Oh my sweet summer child

[ripe sand]

Anyone has a link to the lotheria server? I would like to see how we are planning to build it up this time.. 😛

[abstract kayak]

Send it to you

[fathom lintel]

Cartel guild helped me gather ash wood for my craft they are great guys idk why u hatin

[abstract kayak]

@fathom lintel .I never said I hated them did I. I would refrain from making assumptions because this could lead to misunderstanding. I am just stating what happened to me and the groups present at the timebeing. And if you would take the time to read to the end of my post there, I did state, 'it is what it is'. I have a good understanding of what PvP is and expect to be killed by almost anyone and anywhere.

[paper hawk]

When is the next Cartel hosted newbie power leveling event. I need to gear some alts

[nova heath]

i was actually lvling mage

lvl 12

i know i should stop

[keen scarab]

next pvp zone, gather there

[wraith moss]

@vast dune

Just read your post on the feedback,

On the topic of corpse looting I agree with you. They need a system to keep the person/ who looted your corpse flagged for alot longer but only for the victims of the looting. So you have a chance to go fight for revenge

[nova heath]

that would mean you respawn right around the corner most of the time which isnt a good thing

[wraith moss]

Why isn't that a good thing, getting party wiped or whatever and just seeing corpse merchants Sat there with no risk.

Can't go back and fight them because corruption

[nova heath]

so if i want to contest something and i have to flag up and kill you, you walk back in 2min which would make it meaningless

which also means i cant kill you anymore because i would lose my gear if i do

little bonus before i get my pizza out of the oven which did happen alot in p2

when doing caravan and people attack you they literally just throw their bodies at it til its destroyed via just walking back to it with all the embers around and having spawn protection, absolutely terrible

even if you wiped the enemy they would be back in seconds

[versed marsh]

not enough discord pvp for the length of downtime theres been

EU really is dead

[wary tiger]

Pvp is a cancerous protuberance upon the body of any MMORPG.

there

[keen scarab]

merge when

[patent cargo]

funnily enough I actually wrote an entire feedback report about this

[nova heath]

ye, idk why every poi needs to have a respawn point but we've been other this

[patent cargo]

hmhm

[unborn tapir]

what is the drama going?

[elfin ruin]

After we get all boss gear we can merge 😄

[keen scarab]

i wonder if anyone will ever contest

[elfin ruin]

i hope

[nimble light]

hey , noob question here : how do you get new mounts ?

i saw low level players with exotic mounts and im wondering how they got them

[pearl apex]

skins from the pre alpha 2 packages

[pearl apex]

animal husbandry in combination with the hunting gathering system

[nimble light]

mhh that makes sense thank you ❤️

[wicked sentinel]

soon

[royal star]

is cooking and alchemie worth doing as professions?

[versed marsh]

any serious player will want food/scrolls/pots

eta 2 hours till i can go back to afk fishing

[plush vault]

[harsh crane]

no way why would anyone come to a pvp zone and kill low lvls... shame

[nova heath]

in theory yes, realistically no unless you have people who do gear for you and shit

like in a cp where everything is covered

[royal star]

and is it good to do cooking and alchemie together and which other professions u would choose because u only can do 2 grand master?

is this combination good?

[keen scarab]

[nova heath]

sorry but crafting and shit is not my expertise really

im in the beefing type business

@jagged kite is great pve expert tho

[jagged kite]

[nova heath]

ur written herb guides are pretty good, no denying

[crimson salmon]

can update

[jagged kite]

[mossy bramble]

looks good, I'd probably argue Farming to be higher if you're solo or low group, but still good

[royal star]

yeah but i was checking recipies and saw many need fish also at journyman thats why i thought fishing at master is better because u are limited

im max with this setup that why was asking maby someone has a better setup for it ^^

[mossy bramble]

for grandmaster processing/crafting professions you're never going to be able to get all you need yourself. There's gonna be a ton of fish in the market coz people like to fish whilst afk, although that will change when sport fishing comes. Personally I'd rather do the farming myself as it's more specific. But if you've got a friend/guild member who does farming or just really want the other ones then by all means go for it

At the end of the day, it's a good setup, and if you wanna do/enjoy those professions more that's more important.

[royal star]

true thats a good point with the fishing never thought about it that way

[keen scarab]

game saved?

[obsidian citrus]

Does anyone know if there is an apprentice weaponsmithing table available yet?

[mossy bramble]

When Winstead levels

[obsidian citrus]

WOO! Thank you.

[sharp hemlock]

But when

[wraith moss]

I ddon't think you understand what we were on about, not going to explain

[nova heath]

i do

you want a solution to an issue that shouldt be an issue in the first place

[manic jasper]

Anyone knows how the NOdes on NA server is looking? any towns

que the video where some guild forgot the name won a war against us by cutting down trees montage

[versed marsh]

oh god the fishing derby / lumberjack guild wars

LJ gapped get rekt

[nova heath]

yea was a lumberjack war

@woeful veldt

which guild was it

i remember izzy was in the vid

[versed marsh]

I really hope it was one of the dad guilds

[keen scarab]

somebody did the same to us

lost the war cause they chopped trees

was kinda crazy ngl

[nova heath]

it was

[versed marsh]

the idea of a dad guild war deccing SD and chopping trees to win is actually hilarious

(im assuming it was P1/P2)

[nova heath]

p2, idk if it was sd or rent free at this point

[versed marsh]

in nov they better add sport fishing guild wars

fleets of ships trying to fish while everyone also kills each would be a fun time

[nova heath]

i hope there is natural pvp

[versed marsh]

imagine if the open seas dont stay lawless

[keen scarab]

[versed marsh]

IM TRYING

[keen scarab]

no ur fishing

[versed marsh]

im not honest!"

dont tell jayco

unironically if yapping gatherers with their epic/leg mats could process the fuckers winstead would get some good xp

steelbloom is full of parties from what I heard

HH must be

wait processing gives nothing to the node

intrepid are scamming us

[woeful veldt]

?

[versed marsh]

which guild gapped you at lumberjacking guild war?

tank still not reworked btw

[woeful veldt]

none

[versed marsh]

Daven said it not me

[nova heath]

i saw a vid with a lumberjack war that no one fought out but they decieded to start chopping wood like crazy

and ur name was in it

i just dont remember what guild it was

[pearl apex]

which apprentice stations do we already have on the server?

[placid goblet]

Unless winstead did 50% overnight I think none

[pearl apex]

alr i thought so but wanted to be sure ^^ thanks mate

[tacit gyro]

na almost has three lol

although one is a vassal cuck

[pearl apex]

bc they focus on only 2-3 nodes...🗿

and they are more players on top of that

[tacit gyro]

yeah true in EU you can have one node for every player

[placid goblet]

Explain pls what is a vassel cuck

[nimble light]

the Lifts on the way to Hammer Rest are bugged ive been waiting here for 15 min - now i have to go all the way around the mountain lol
is there any admin or someone who should know this ?

[pearl apex]

i thought they fixed it two days ago

[brazen copper]

/bug it, as Gejeeto said this was supposedly fixed already, but I guess not

[lucid sun]

I have the same issue, already reported. I can’t go ahead with that main q

[woeful bolt]

Server ded

merge when

[woeful bolt]

Elevators not working gives me very bad star citizen vibes

[still vine]

Cos the moment 80% of EU people log in, the realms go down

[pearl apex]

kinda true

[woeful bolt]

that's 17 people idk

[pearl apex]

https://tenor.com/view/sad-gif-7523306793289960933

[bleak badge]

not gonna lie, eu is looking kinda grim.. less than 30 people at the cookhouse fishing spot atm

winstead at 66%

[still vine]

It's 12 pm on a workday

[fathom locust]

Exactly

[bleak badge]

surely the people at work afk fish too (couldn't be me)

[spark moth]

That's peak time for MMO fans

[bleak badge]

and i'm sure we'll get another primetime patch today with another attempt at fixing gathering rarity

[fathom locust]

We aren't all students anymore 😉

[maiden mulch]

Bro that's the problem, too many damn fishers, go grind

[still vine]

give me a patch that requires interact to be pressed to collect the fish

[fathom locust]

They already announced Tuesdays as the major patch day going forward ,excluding hot fixes, which there are currently still a lot of

And the only you can do with Frostflash right is oil, which cannot be used yet I believe

[keen scarab]

no shot winstead is STILL at 66%

[still vine]

well, you can still vendor the fish; and if you leave the game running for 8 hours straight, it does add up
on the electricity bill

[keen scarab]

wtf are the pve players doing

[still vine]

definitely not leveling anvil nodes

cos those are nowhere near

[keen scarab]

this shit is so dead

[still vine]

Tho it doesn't really surprise me... when all node commissions have quest areas around other nodes

like... why...

"I want to help Kal Torhum."

• "Okay, now travel to Duunhold."
  

[woeful bolt]

I think I'm gonna move to NA, I've been playing super casually and leveling 2 characters while helping newbs and still can't find any groups in my level range

[maiden mulch]

You can't afk fish for 8 hrs, it kicks you for being afk after like 20-30 mins

[keen scarab]

U should, playing like this Is horrible

And the people Who gaslight u that everything Is fine and pop Is not a problem are even worst

[woeful bolt]

Maybe I can pug for carph or forge there

[woeful bolt]

I think a lot of people are new or took long breaks so they don't know what a full server is like

But the fact that they didn't publish player numbers like they usually did says everything

[keen scarab]

No thats the problem

The majority of players crying are people Who have been playing since p1

The "big" EU guilds

Bunch of fucking pussies

[maiden mulch]

Also it's 11am on a weekday lmao, people are at work and we get fkked because when we get off work they do a 1 hr maint like cmon bro use your brain

[woeful bolt]

We're not talking about this moment

[maiden mulch]

Like ye it's shit but intrepid isn't exactly helping tbh

[woeful bolt]

I'm not even playing at this time, there is no point

I'm playing bannerlord and watching netflix

[keen scarab]

We hade 50 people in the riverlands on a saturday night

Prime time eu

[maiden mulch]

Still though the evening is the 'most busy' but people are kinda already tired of the maint, etc

[keen scarab]

Also the fucking rp guilds are leveling anvils for some reason

[maiden mulch]

A lot of guilds just went NA at the start anyway as well right?

[keen scarab]

No i dont think there Is a single eu guild Who went na

Eu Just doesnt play this game

[woeful bolt]

I mean can you blame them? It's phase 2.9 and out of like over 100 people who I tried to get to play again 1 tried it

Old problems exist, it's just the same grind again

[keen scarab]

Yeah game has been on a downfall since p2

[bleak badge]

but i gotta work, checking my fishes every 30 mins is the best i can do 😄

[still vine]

Well, you log in, you see that crafting is fucked, you somehow push thru to get gear that's worse than what you start with.
At that point you look around like "what the fuck, game?" and leave to play [insert game].

[woeful bolt]

But ya dunno, been trying to help new players as much as possible and get them to keep playing but many are quitting because of droprates, crafting or griefing

[maiden mulch]

Yup I don't blame them, i sucked it up and playing it in the hopes of it being better and while it's smoother in terms of the server everything else is fkked

[keen scarab]

Drop rates are not even that bad come on

[still vine]

I think someone should politely ask their math guy if he in fact knows how to math

[woeful bolt]

Oh yeah, I'm in full radiant besides 2 items, the issue is that low levels struggle

[keen scarab]

Their math guy Is called grok

[maiden mulch]

How are you not fixing hunting and now moving on to introducing new storylines and shit, crafting recipes broken, mats don't exist. Some are easy changes and it's just not done, even if its a temp fix, just do it for QoL

[still vine]

I take that as a no

[woeful bolt]

The droprates for level 20 gear are crazy, but people quit before they get to the point of doing 20-30 pulls in steelbloom

[keen scarab]

I think people struggle cause they are obsessed with hh, this phase Is Just a bait, there are way Better spots

[maiden mulch]

Ye there are 1-2 guilds just going around and killing low lvls, dunno why lmao. They don't even take the spot, just wait then kill them again when they come back

[still vine]

I would understand if the things that are hard to test were broken. But the stuff that's broken are things that are blatantly obvious without any testing

[viscid scroll]

Why are ado and miriku the only smart eu people I ever see type no glaze thou eu is ass

[woeful bolt]

Ya but the early game means everything to new players, they're not interesting in running around for hours to test spots to maybe get a single item. They want to test different weapons, play the game, get excited

[keen scarab]

Probably because its a pvp zone

[maiden mulch]

Pretty much, like the wilderness essence in anvils lmao

[maiden mulch]

Nah it's not that

[keen scarab]

I agree, First time user experience Is horrible, and that the thing they worked on the most in the last months, its very concerning

[bleak badge]

watch them nerf the lv20 gear droprates as soon as i get to relevant levels

[still vine]

or inability to equip a focus into a ranged slot without having your melee offhand slot filled...

[woeful bolt]

Yeah, people should be in full grey gear with a selection of weapons within a few hours ANYWHERE they can level/grind

[keen scarab]

U can do that, u Need to drag the focus

[viscid scroll]

Also they put Bucky as head of the narrative team. LIKE WHATTTTTT

[keen scarab]

?????????

[woeful bolt]

Like honestly even if 1/10 goblins would drop a grey item level 0 WHO CARES

[keen scarab]

THEY DID WHAT?

[maiden mulch]

Lmao i didn't even know that, i still have my trusty rusty scepter xD

[still vine]

I did that; until my melee offhand was filled, it just went into melee offhand slot

[viscid scroll]

I am not trolling bro that is real. SUMMONER IS NOT EVEN RELASED AND THEY MADE BUCKY HEAD OF NARRATIVE LIKE WHATTTTT

[woeful bolt]

Economy is flooded already, do a few hours of steelbloom and you have enough gear for 5 characters

[maiden mulch]

Also ye I think you have to drag, coz when I crafted a focus and clicked it. It unequipped my spellbook, but when I dragged it into the slot with a melee wep I could have both

[still vine]

the interaction is... messy... to say the least

[keen scarab]

No shot, the only guy who could design classes now is in charge of quests

cant make this shit up

[woeful bolt]

If you do big enough pulls in steelbloom the server tickrate goes down and the mobs barely do anything anymore. it's a snowball effect leading to absolute mad gearfarming

[woeful bolt]

it's probably easier to have someone ruin bard and rogue than reworking everything else

[maiden mulch]

Summoner apparently coming to ptr in the next few months. On god I hope they listen to the feedback we give

[keen scarab]

they dont care about feedback

[woeful bolt]

Can't wait for summoner to be the best tank so you want full magical parties

[still vine]

Like with crafting? or... keybinds? ... or TANK?

[sharp hemlock]

They do care about people crying like dogs for something like EU server

[fathom locust]

Isn't spellboook a 2hand weapon?

[maiden mulch]

Nooooo don't remind me

[woeful bolt]

how many people can even cry? there is nobody

[still vine]

Population is quite high on Discord

We like to cry at work

[woeful bolt]

So people cry for an EU server and then don't play, I love it

[sharp hemlock]

Legit question they all quitted already

[maiden mulch]

True tbh, ppl kinda put it on the shelve coz its kinda worse than we thought already

[keen scarab]

true

[viscid scroll]

Again don’t blame eu for ur dog ass server blame Steven for prioritizing pirate software over game health.

[maiden mulch]

I mean honestly I dunno, I know a lot went NA from the start

[keen scarab]

but those are the paypigs they can milk for money

[maiden mulch]

Bro shut up and go back to trolling in #alpha-two-general

[keen scarab]

he is 100% right tho

[maiden mulch]

How does it have anything to do with pirate? Lmao

[still vine]

care to elaborate?
(I barely know who he is, so I am missing the context here)

[viscid scroll]

Are u mad because im the goat of trolling and also have good takes. Please don’t bring up my trolling in a server only section of the disc when im not trolling

[sharp hemlock]

We re gonna meet where winds meet

[odd topaz]

That game looks pretty good

[viscid scroll]

Okay so Steven know eu doesn’t have pop to maintain server announces it will be mega pirate says I don’t wanna play mega make another server so Steven opens up server for pirate ( big streamer supposedly has 10k player count guild blah blah blah ) claims it’s eu pirate leaves first day of wipe server immediately dead

[keen scarab]

he is a big streamer who was interested in the game at some point, but he got his ass kicked during phase 2, skipped 2.5 and now he is back on p3 but instead of going na he decided to roll eu cause he was scared of the competition, tinfoil hat theories says that this pushed steven to have 2 servers instead of one

but in the end the guy is not even playing the game, and neither is his community so eu is empty

[viscid scroll]

where the winds meets is the first mmo of the new mmo generation( well retail wow too) it’s basically the future of MMOs it’s gonna be pretty fun

[calm tundra]

doesn't bother me in the slightest if Pirate is on Loth, his guild only really plays while he's active. the rest of the time, the server is just as empty as normal. lol

[viscid scroll]

That’s the point they made a whole sever for him because he said he was gonna bring numbers but game is so shit he left and basically killed y’all’s sever

[maiden mulch]

I'd say that's a bit of a reach tbh, but I get the viewpoint

What's more dumb is the ppl crying for EU server and then don't play

[calm tundra]

the server is doing fine, it's just building slower than Shol, which I am also fine with. more materials for me I say.

[keen scarab]

thats 80% of eu guilds

[maiden mulch]

Ye i dunno, I still see full groups and people running around farming, grinding and trading in the evening

[viscid scroll]

STEVEN KNEW THIS WAS THE CASE WE TOLD HIM pirate convinced him otherwise there is no other explanation as to why u would waste money on a dead sever

[maiden mulch]

So i dunno how ppl are saying it's dead, we always had less pop than NA

[keen scarab]

so what people miss is that sure there are SOME people now, but what happens in a month time? This phase had the lowest amount of people starting that i ever seen

[still vine]

I saw russian in chat, I disabled chat , but I still do see people taking my rocks
Not dead enough for pleasant gathering

[viscid scroll]

How many eu players do u think are on during prime time? If its less then 1k sever is dead

[keen scarab]

brother its way less

[maiden mulch]

Never saw any russian lmao

[pearl apex]

The have alien in area 51, am i right? you're one of those types 🗿

[keen scarab]

i would say 500 to 800 players top

[still vine]

I blocked like 50 on day 1

[viscid scroll]

That’s good atleast I want eu to have good pop I like fighting eu way better then average na

[viscid scroll]

Please no trolling rn we’re talking business

[maiden mulch]

Have we ever had 1k on eu? Pop been going down every test phase lmao

[odd topaz]

based on what source?

[calm tundra]

I'min USA and I joined th EU server becasue I don't like a LOT of the people playing on the NA server. lol

[keen scarab]

i made it up

[odd topaz]

cool, just so we're on the same page

[viscid scroll]

Bro we are expirenced players we know when the server is packed and when it’s dead lmfao

[keen scarab]

im just guessing obv i dont have any sources

[pearl apex]

sure my bad mate, iam sry 🤘🏼😔

[still vine]

Did it help? I am really waiting for the JP server

[viscid scroll]

The fact they didn’t release a player count when they have for p1 p2 p2.5 shows u it’s not very good

[keen scarab]

but i played saturday night, there were like 20-30 people in steelbloom

[odd topaz]

I rolled on the US server. Read world chat for 30 minutes. Deleted character and re-rolled EU. That server was a cesspit of toxicity, quite happy to be on a quiet, more friendly EU server (just my opinion)

[viscid scroll]

How is that good data we don’t want dead servers in this game we want servers packed to brim and only when that happens will another be made

[keen scarab]

and still no one is grinding carphin

[viscid scroll]

That is sad

[woeful bolt]

I lfg for carphin since 2 days

:(

[keen scarab]

i have seen people pulling mobs from outside the tower

i think havoc was grinding second floor at some point

[woeful bolt]

I just dunno what to do, the people with levels for it don't take pugs

[keen scarab]

but its actually scary to see the tower this empty

[woeful bolt]

Well lemme know if you wanna do it

[viscid scroll]

If only there was a mega server with more people to play with

[nimble light]

is there is

[keen scarab]

we are almost done with carphin grind

rest of the phase will be spent burning caravans and waiting for crafting station to come up i guess

[woeful bolt]

if I wait 1-2 weeks for the few people left on the server to reach the level then I'm not coming back

and I won't gather 1080 copper for a weapon

[keen scarab]

u shouldnt, just stop play and hope for a merge

[woeful bolt]

If I stop playing I don't come back until a wipe, I know myself

[viscid cove]

@keen scarab damn another day and lo and behold youre still complaining 🤣

[keen scarab]

not even a bad idea tbh

[woeful bolt]

:(

[keen scarab]

just having a conversation with some buddies

[viscid scroll]

Why are u mad at constructive feedback?

[viscid cove]

LMAO sure

[maiden mulch]

Also that's another problem, some guild groups not taking pugs so ppl are just left out. Make a group in chat, I was lfg for 15 mins and nothing. As soon as I start a group I get spammed with whispers asking to inv

No need to be scared to use chat guys

[viscid scroll]

I’m telling u man I think fungi fellowship would really suit u if ur more of a casual chill player

Like this game u need a guild not solo friendly one but

[keen scarab]

i mean pugging in this game is horrible, cant blame guilds who actually have players if they dont wanna do it

[woeful bolt]

I hate mushrooms

[viscid scroll]

guys it’s a guild based game suck it up step out of ur comfort zone and make friends it’s not that hard and pretty fun

[maiden mulch]

Ye I kinda get it, ppl have that WoW mentality and they don't read chat when u try to even hemp them

[calm tundra]

could always bring your own friends.... if you have any.

[woeful bolt]

:( I'm a good pug I swear

[maiden mulch]

I do but rarely other people do the same

[viscid scroll]

We gotta get out of this mentality we gotta start making friends in game it’s the funniest shit to do I swear to god

[woeful bolt]

Brought over 100 people to the game, 1 of them tried this wipe and already quit

[viscid scroll]

I don’t even know this @keen scarab guy but i consider him my friend because we share the same views even thou I hate eu

[woeful bolt]

the issue is making friends around your level who aren't in a guild

[keen scarab]

[viscid scroll]

Okay that’s sad tbh I feel ur pain none of my friends I started with play anymore but I made more friends

[woeful bolt]

I made friends too, they're now level 12 and I'm 22 and 16

I tried joining a pug group for forge

it took them 12 minutes to kill a single dwarf

[keen scarab]

i feel like in order to grind forge efficently u need to have decent gear

too many hp sponges and mobs with shields

[woeful bolt]

I dunno, I'm fully decked with steelbloom gear

It's forge or carphin, right?

Idk what else to do

[keen scarab]

how much power u have

[woeful bolt]

not much I'm tank, like 150

[keen scarab]

oooh u playing tank

thats decent for a tank

[woeful bolt]

tank and ranger, tank leveled ahead

ya, I'm on 69% defense with buffs

pretty nice

[calm tundra]

My core groups is myself as a tank, my friend as a cleric, another friend as a bard, and a mage and ranger for dps. heh we do well enough.

[woeful bolt]

Now imagine your friends all quit

and you're the idiot who doesn't enjoy battlefield 6 so you remain alone

[calm tundra]

lol

that does suck

[woeful bolt]

I like teaming with new players and having some adventures with them. But I also wanna progress

[calm tundra]

I'd invite ya to come play with us for a while and see if you like it, but my friends are all offline right now, it's just me. we are all US timezones, so...

[woeful bolt]

I dunno my timezone

[calm tundra]

where are you on the big round rock?

[woeful bolt]

EU

but that doesn't mean I agree to EU timezone

[calm tundra]

yeah

we play generally until about 3-5 AM eastern TZ US

[woeful bolt]

time is a construct

[soft ibex]

elevator to Hammer rest dosent work

[woeful bolt]

welcome to star citizen

[calm tundra]

HAHA

[viscid scroll]

Danm Zoltar this made me really proud big ups to you my guy

That’s how we take initiative doesn’t always pan out but never give up

[woeful bolt]

do you run carphin/forge?

[calm tundra]

right now, no, but eventually, yes

[woeful bolt]

:c

[calm tundra]

we are all around lvl 10ish

[woeful bolt]

:<

I don't wanna make a 3rd characer to have people to play with again

I think I made over 20 characters within the last year :( I'm a bit over it

not that they all reach lvl 25 but dunno, the start is getting a bit repeatitive

[calm tundra]

hehe I understand that

[woeful bolt]

go quit your job and level to 20s today

:<

[calm tundra]

don't have ajob, but I'm also in no hurry to level to end game. I am enjoying myself and doing stupid stuff on my way to max level. it is a test afterall.

[woeful bolt]

;_; the closer you are to endgame the sader you get

[calm tundra]

lol

[woeful bolt]

take your time, it's wise

[calm tundra]

yup

[tight olive]

more end than game right now when you reach it :p

We should do gamba and bets on when/if EU will manage to get a city node settlement

[calm tundra]

Winstead is on track for 3-5 more days. heh

Joeva is good for another 2-3 days after I think

[mossy bramble]

small chance Winstead levels tonight

[calm tundra]

I mean, we could force them to grow, by working together on one town at a time tuntil they all do... just sayin'.

[marble badge]

Do commisions from Winstead give it a good amount of XP? or is it jsut mob grinding in it's ZOI?

[timid geyser]

windstead 70 %

[maiden mulch]

I think winstead hits by tomorrow no? I'll ping later in chat if ppl wanna grind or smth to help. I wanna get my damn apprentice tools already

[minor owl]

lets just hope we don't get another day of downtime ^^

[woeful bolt]

nono a city, the big new tier with stone walls

[rose zodiac]

I think there's about a 10% chance of no downtime tonight

[acoustic hemlock]

It was 45-50% yesterday it very well could get there tonight, probably tomorrow though

[versed marsh]

👀

[mossy kraken]

wtb rare bluegill

[unborn valve]

@worn zinc Do you know if the Winstead Settlement will level to T3 on EU like in NA at 70%? We got a whole raid waiting in anticipation...

[minor owl]

was hoping it would be at 64% like encampment, can't really remember for village, would be nice though 😄

[timid geyser]

@worn zinc they should just buff the node xp one eu for each down time so that would like 35 % buff

[keen scarab]

no shot

[hushed lagoon]

what is there to do when u hit 25 btw

jw

[mossy bramble]

NA's levelled at 70% so that triggers the copium clause in my contract

[keen scarab]

[mossy bramble]

https://tenor.com/view/believe-motivation-ted-lasso-jason-sudeikis-trendizisst-gif-3529704266728728998

[maiden mulch]

It will be tomorrow 100%

[spark moth]

Steven levelled it up with admin tools because he was bored waiting

[maiden mulch]

Eh?

I heard they did that for the lvl 0 nodes coz they were busted but not later as well right?

[keen scarab]

they boosted them in p2 so i wouldnt be surprised

[mossy bramble]

Man, not being the "Hates EU" allegations

[spark moth]

That was a joke FWIW 👀

[spare glen]

[cold imp]

Hmmm. We got Animal Husbandry Station, then we also need Anime Waifu Station next pls 🙂

[boreal sentinel]

Hey @regal pond, winstead is not leveling after 72% unlike NA server. Is there a problem with settlements leveling up in NA or EU?

[lavish flume]

Becose people grinding in another places and nobody do commisions

[wraith moss]

does the game always set its resolution back for anyone else on start up

my resolution won't stay at 4k

Anyone had an issue becoming citizen of Winstead? I have a tax voucher it says you are a citizen now but it doesnt make me a citizen

[jagged kite]

Relogg for 15 seconds or character dissapears

Try again

[paper hawk]

fixed it, appreciated

[jagged kite]

[bleak badge]

what the fug is going on with the servers

giga laggy

[maiden mulch]

just crashed ye

[soft hornet]

yeah I've just frozen in placebut still seeing others move around

[maiden mulch]

for me

I just closed, and reopening now

[soft hornet]

relog fixed it for me

[limber elm]

laggggggggging wtf whats going on with Winstead

[versed marsh]

@pallid elk We're experiencing server wide lag/freezes

[void bane]

lag freez near winstead Steelbloom

[worn zinc]

We're looking into this. Thanks everyone for the reports.

Hey folks! If you are experiencing lag, can you please relog and let me know if that does not fix it? Please and thanks!

[pulsar rampart]

For a moment it lags as if there was DDoS, I relog, and it continues, but now I don't feel it anymore, I think there is a small DDoS attack

[flint cloak]

I logged off, waited 30 seconds, logged in. Still lagging

[sturdy phoenix]

relogging doesnt seem to fix the rubberbanding on SW 48, leaving the SW does though..

[worn zinc]

Got ya! You were in SW48?

What SW were you in @flint cloak ?

[sturdy phoenix]

Yep from middle of winstead all the way out to the SW 49 boundary you get rubber banding (i cant remember what SW the actual Winstead town is in)

[flint cloak]

I don't even know what an SW is 😅

[sturdy phoenix]

press page up 🙂 it tells you the server worker (SW) youre on

[flint cloak]

ah yep

48

[jagged kite]

Another wipe another first 2 weeks of steel bloom being the somme equivalent of a server

[worn zinc]

It's a Server Worker - it's how we define where you are in the world for our Gridding System.

If you click PageUp, it should show you "SW+no".

[worn zinc]

Thank you!

[jagged kite]

If only this extremely contested POI was in the lawless rotation

[sturdy phoenix]

Assuming 48 is the middle of winstead as well, its basically been bad since the node leveled up. (partly of course because the entire server went there)

[void bane]

lag again after a reboot near winstead Steelbloom

[jagged kite]

Steelbloom being so close it has always made Winstead feel insanely laggy.

[flint cloak]

It was fine untill the the node leveled up and the whole server came there indeed 😛

[sturdy phoenix]

winstead having steelbloom and HH has always caused problems

[odd topaz]

Still happening after multiple relogs. The entire server is complaining about it. Windstead hit village today and all the players have moved there, its clearly struggling a lot

[worn zinc]

Yep, team is investigating.

Thank you all for your patience and answering questions!

[flint cloak]

Finally managed to enter SW 45 and it seems to work normal indeed

[odd topaz]

Windstead seems a lot more stable already. Rubberbanding is gone for me, just usual frame rate drop entering busy town

[limber elm]

not playable the laggs, getting perm. back ported

[tulip swallow]

We did some mitigation, but there were still some lingering issues. If you do continue to have any problems with lag or rubberbanding, you will first want to try relogging on the game client. If immediately relogging doesn't fix the issue, you can try logging out for 4-5 minutes so that your connection completely resets. Then log back in to the game.

[odd topaz]

nice one thanks

[golden jetty]

@worn zinc Can we please get Lawless zones in SteelBloom, Forge and Carphin?

only having them in the low level POI's is such a missed home run

[versed marsh]

Steelbloom has had the lawless before I'm pretty sure

[void bane]

hey wassup gamer

[woeful bolt]

Wait NA has towns and we don't even have a village?

@worn zinc @shrewd sapphire Whats the reason the commission boards at the trading posts in the anvils are bugged since monday's rollback :S. They are stuck at waiting orders -112d,13h,20m

Hear ye, hear ye, noble folk of Winstead!

Long have we prospered under the banner of unity, and long have we awaited a leader bold enough to shape our destiny. When the call was made for EU servers, it was Prometeu who rose above the crowd. With vision, strength, and unwavering resolve, he carved a path that many thought impossible, and through his efforts the gates to a greater realm were opened.

Now, people of Winsted, the hour has come once more. A choice lies before us—not of mere politics, but of legacy. Shall Winstead remain a small town in the shadows, or shall it rise to glory beneath the guiding hand of Prometeu!

He has proven his might. He has shown his devotion. Let us grant him the mantle of mayor, that he may forge Winsted into a stronghold of greatness, a city whose name shall echo across the lands.

Raise your banners, lend your voices, and cast your vote for Prometeu!
For Winstead, for glory, for the future!

[inland creek]

Don’t think it helps that processing alone is 75s and not guaranteed a mount 🙁

[warm citrus]

Is there any focus in the starter area?

[worn zinc]

There should be one in the area.

[warm citrus]

Ok, ty. I have never seen one

In Anvil starter area too?

[worn zinc]

Yeah, should be.

I know I have picked one up before, but could also be bugged. Stranger things have happened. 😅

[sleek tendon]

I know there was one on the PTR but I couldn’t find it in P3

[warm citrus]

Looks like a sword

Just found it

[errant zenith]

Hi guys, me and my wife cannot proceed as we get an error message both:

sorry if its known!

resolved, just need to wait a bit 🙂

Glad they got it resolved.
