Hello again.
On #read-me-first I`m setting English as my language. But when I do, several channels appear, and after less than 2 seconds they disappear.
Why is this? Right now, even tho I have selected English (EN) I can only see: Welcome, News, Help and voice. Not community discussion that appear and disappear.

Besides race contribution (building aesthetics) to a settlement node (any level)and being able to choose what buildings to build where with in the settlement(as mayor) … is there anything else (besides previously mentioned and settlement node type )that will be done to stop settlement nodes from feeling like a cut and paste lay out ? (Ie all building plot placements are the same for every node level )
originally I was under the impression as a player you was able to choose what a settlement node would be (out of the four options) I have since found out that the “node type” will be preset across all servers. Is there any particular reason for this besides potential balancing issues ? (I imagine as the game goes on after launch the potential for a “meta content/node rotation issue arising “ potentially reducing/ removing the individual server identity

so what is a settlement specialization then ?
dark jungle
What do you mean by that?
edgy knot
What do you mean by that?
on the link you just provided me about node layout
Q: How long would you say it will take players on average to fill slash build up a node completely from wilderness to metropolis?
A: It's one thing to get a node to a certain level: it's another thing to develop the node; and I can't really give you an on-average expectation, because there's a lot of variables at play. There's how many citizens does the node have attracted to it; what's the type of traffic that the node is attracting to it based on things like its tax rates,** or the specialization that it chose to spec into**, based on the building types it's chosen to build. All of those things are variables that can affect the quote-unquote "average build-out time" of a particular node. So it's kind of difficult to give you an average when there's so many variables along those lines. But the idea is that if there is a particular project that players are interested in in developing based on the node stage, that they would have the ability to complete several of those projects as within a single term of a mayor; and a term of a mayor is one month.[13] – Steven Sharif
that to me would be one of the four presets ? ie military/divine
dark jungle
That is referring to the types of buildings the mayor chooses to build
The list of possible buildings includes general types as well as node type related buildings
!wiki node buildings

The node type related buildings are referred to as unique node buildings

edgy knot
That is referring to the types of buildings the mayor chooses to build
with the military nodes is there potentially going to be more buildings besides the barracks and bounty hunter stuff ? otherwise military nodes are going to be a bit lack luster compared to the other three types... i would like to just say though from what ive seen of the game so far and with the unreal 5 engine reveal its looking epic

I've read the wiki, could someone confirm my understanding of artisan class's limitations is correct.
Of the 3 artisan classes, you can choose two professions within each class, however you can only choose one of the three classes to master, and therefore master the two professions within that class while your professions in the other two classes will be limited at a certain point.
Is that correct?

Presumably you could do that, but there's more risk to it than in say WoW. Gathering mats can be dropped if their on you and you die, lost in caravan shipments, or lost in node sieges.
dark jungle
Additionally there is a massive time commitment to level those professions. Then what happens when the processors and crafters run out of mats?
But if you are talking about low level gatherables and mats then sure it won't be too much of a burden to keep switching
ancient egret
so does this mean everyone will be able to gather everything up to a point? e.g....
you can level every profession but only master 2 on the same path

I would like to ask what was the logic behind giving a streamer who rarely ever covers your content $3,750.00(+Tax) worth of testing keys. According to the numbers, other streamers would be a better investment, with either a larger audience or more time devoted to your content.
This is even more evident given that even with the keys you gave them to give away their numbers are still far below other content creators. I'm not in analytics, but this tells me even their community isn't very interested in your product. I understand the individual is a friend of your that you play other games with, however given the data this just seems like a gross waste of marketing time and finances that should have been utilized more efficiently.

Greetings friend. Not everything Intrepid does will be rooted in analytics or the best return on investments. This is part of what sets us apart from other companies. I interact with “people” not marketers or content creators. Sometimes they have large audiences and sometimes they don’t. As we approach A2 you will see more of this with different people that I feel help foster an inclusive and enjoyable community. Also, the 10 keys he got were not packages, they were A2 keys only for him to hand out as he sees fit. ❤️

Hey all 🐱
Regarding Ranger Class Fantasy
I've two class fantasies for a ranger that appeal to me on a personal level, and would like to please ask if this is something that's already/ currently in development.
First one is a classic elven ranger who primarily uses a long-range bow, for instance, with most of their attacks/ abilities, based around that weapon when instigating an encounter. Stalking upon their prey and gaining a vantage point, up high on a cliff for example, before firing down upon them. Then, if and when their target manages to get in melee range, they switch it up by using a sword and finishing the job.
Second class fantasy, is the vampire and werewolf huntress, whose primary strategy is to get in melee range with blade in hand, slash and stab their target while being able to dodge, weave and riposte, and surprise attack them with a small cross-bow, for example, that's short-medium-ish range for poisoned bolts or something.
My question, or maybe request is, are both or either of these class fantasies available for AoC please?
Additionally, can you switch weapons during combat, and perhaps customise a ranger class build that would be the same as, or close to, as my two class fantasies that I've written about.

@exotic wasp The short answer is - We don't know yet. In theory both your fantasies are possible but we have no solid information on the Ranger archetype just yet, or what any augments will do, so for now it's pure speculation on what is and isn't going to be in the finished game.

Alright then! Thanks for your quick and detailed reply! 🐱
And good luck with the game, it genuinely looks so wonderful and a true adventure to embark upon!

You can swap weapon but you need to not get hit or hit anyone for a period of time. Armors cannot be swapped during combat

viscid swan
so i've got like three questions about Nodes, and i've looked at the Wiki already... may i ask them here?
dark jungle
Shoot
viscid swan
(BANG) Is Node atrophy the only way a Node will loose a lvl? can a Node be destroyed or abandoned through Node atrophy? when a building is destroyed will it lower the lvl of the Node, or would a few buildings have to be destroyed for it to loose a lvl. Or does building destruction not effect a Node's lvl?
dark jungle
Note atrophy is likely not going to be a mechanic that delevels nodes
It will likely accumulate a score that will eventually lead to node destruction if not addressed
The other method to destroy nodes is node sieges
No other methods are known currently
viscid swan
okay. thank you @dark jungle for answering my questions
dark jungle
Also buildings being destroyed will disable services those buildings provide but won't affect node stage
viscid swan
ah, okay that's good to know, for when i find myself protecting a Node
smoky sapphire
atrophy will also likely disable services
stuck cape
Is this game going to be PVP focused or is it meant to be a player choice driven world building experience? From the wiki description it seems to be purely a choice based MMO, but I've seen a lot claiming it's a Open World PVP game so I'm a little confused.
manic holly
Player-choice, though sometimes if you're pvp focused doing pve might be advantageous and vice-versa
desert ivy
Open-world PvP is always a thing. You can be attacked at any time, any where (except Freeholds, instanced areas, and player stalls. There's a system in place to prevent griefing
The developers call Ashes a PvX Themebox/Sandpark
PvE and PvP are both necessary parts of the game, unlike other MMOs where PvE and PvP are separate and don't really have an impact on each other

So question. How long does it take to level a node from 0 to 1.
Or do we not know yet.
dark jungle
it should be in the order of a few hours, but times are subject to change as testing progresses

ebon marsh
Does ashes have some sort of debuff system where a larger group of people lets say have a damage or cc debuff proportion to their group size vs a smaller group
Does the crowd control skills have diminishing effects?
warm onyx
Guilds can choose to spend points in either increasing the guild size (up to 300 atm) or in guild skills. That being said, those don’t apply to party/raids as far as we know.
And yes, there are diminishing returns to CC

guilds can't 'own' a node.
gaunt cliff
Right, but individual players can make up the government of a node, right? So, supposing that a singular guild fills those slots, they would have sole influence over said node, no?
stoic spire
sure, you could see it that way, it wouldn't really be of any benefit to them if they were governing them all
gaunt cliff
Sure, but that brings me back to my previous question, through that logic, could one group eventual have control over all nodes? Is there a case where world domination could be possible?
stoic spire
they wouldn't be dominating anything though, and also don't forget how much competition there will be for mayorship, not much of a stretch to think some random player not in your guild could do more quests than your guildies to take a divine node

I don’t disagree that the likelihood of it occurring is minimal at best. I’m just pondering at the idea of a single group controlling the wars, the movement of resources, the taxing rates and various other things of villages and metros, etc

Going kinda off of question @upbeat comet asked.. couldn't a big streamer just take over a node during an election... comes to node,becomes citizen of node, has hoard become citizens.

blacksmithing (in games with the 3 professions separated) usually provides tools and building implements for other professions

There will be a curve upon each release where the ones who play more have a lot better gear until regulars catch up proly
manic holly
It's been said that leveling will take about 160 to 240 hours, so that might indicate how long it will take to get fully geared, though that assumes you'll be getting gear alongside your leveling.

PvP gear will become harder to get as the server progresses

Pve gear and PvP gear is the same

Aye, the players who put in more hours of play will most likely have better gear in the beginning of each release. Then others slowly catch up

Even when your game is closed. Your character will stay in the world for some time (30sec -60sec idk 🤷). So other players are still able to kill you.

I know that players can sell/buy static housing to/from other players, but will the same rule apply to apartments and/or freeholds?
ruby swift
They have said in the past that freeholds most likely will not be able to be sold, but they are still evaluating how that might work. The problem with freeholds is that they have character specific progression on them. Instanced apartments being able to be sold as far as I remember has not been mentioned.

stray crater
However for those that have not ever tested before. You can expect in the early start of A2 there will most likely be changed or balancing or I game system changes that will require server and character wipes. So saying a "consistent play through" to beta or even launch is a bit of a misnomer. You should at least have this in the back of your mind.

Also what you can do is doing your caravans when there's not a lot of people around.
And I don't think people will gather a lot of people a whole day just to grief people.

gotta look at the time line for a normal MMO... which is 5-6 years...and the pop out unfinished and get "finished" through patches for the next two to three years... (the exception would be final fantasy 14 a realm reborn... they did that shit in a year)
your guess is, i would say pretty close... if they do alpha-2 this winter, if they have it later then i think it'll be 3 years... it all depends on how much they are doing between tests
i'm just guessing here though so take it with a grain of salt..

Hi just wondering about corrupted players i understand that they lose items and xp on death but what's stopping a high level corrupt from using throwaway armor/weapons to kill lower level players and repeating after death???
lusty kite
Hi just wondering about corrupted players i understand that they lose items and ...
For one, "A player's corruption score (corruption value) increases with each non-combatant player killed. Corruption score has a scaling impact on the efficacy of a character's skills in PvP combat"
and "The wider the level disparity between the players, and the higher the attacker's PK value, the more corruption they gain"
"Corruption penalties occur as the corruption is gained.[16] The higher the corruption score:
The more skill and stat dampening applies (lower health and mana, lower gear proficiency), until the corrupt player ultimately becomes ineffective at combat.[8][17][18] This dampening only affects PvP combat" and more on the Wiki
desert ivy
Hi just wondering about corrupted players i understand that they lose items and ...
The xp debt. It's not a small thing.
lusty kite
@tame sparrow please check the ashes of creation wiki for more information on Corruption and all things Ashes of Creation
desert ivy
For example, Steven constantly talks about Lineage 2 where you'd lose days worth of progress for dying a single time. Not to say it will be like that in Ashes, but if it's anything close then xp debt will be something people will want to avoid, especially when corrupted when you lose 4x as much

Ah okay thats good glad they thought of a countermeasure I was just worried people would abuse it by using lower level weapons thanks for the info

Not emotes per say, but maybe something like I take off my helmet while and hold it under arm if I'm wearing one, or if I'm wielding a battle axe I can rest it on the ground with my hands on the hilt. I realise it would be a lot of extra work, but the devs could add a lot of personality and little Easter eggs if certain conditions are met or something. And not as emotes, just something that happens while idle, at random.
manic holly
Those kinds of things don't generally fit the style of idle animation, but it's certainly not impossible. Things like that though we don't know much of anything about and will likely be something that we get information about later down the line.

When a node is destroyed by a siege, is there a delay to the other nodes surrounding it being unlocked?
Okay thanks, you mean change the other ZOI to neutral or becoming the new ZOI of the conqueror/winner of the siege?
Ahh thanks that clears up alot!
manic holly
A metropolis would technically be the center of a city with the nodes around it all the way down to tier 1 being the city itself.
stuck cape
thanks! i also found this buried in the wiki for those curious https://ashesofcreation.wiki/World_map#Node_simulation
manic holly
So down to stage 3 then. If the nodes are leveled "improperly" could a city malform itself?
dark jungle
what do you mean by malform?
manic holly
what do you mean by malform?
I meant have neighboring nodes under its influence end up leveling up in an inefficient pattern, but by the sound of it that can't be the case.
Though, if you have a level 4 node, and you level an adjacent node to 3 before a node a space away from it but sharing adjacency with a level 5 node can get to 4 itself, then you'll lock it out from being able to grow to that superior level.
dark jungle
not sure what you mean by inefficient pattern? nodes level up due to experience they gain, so the pattern is dictated by who gets the most XP the fastest
the first node to cross over the the threshold for advancing to the next node stage will advance, providing they arent blocked by an adjacent node with the same target level
stuck cape
It never blocks a higher node?
manic holly
How could it block a higher node?
late spindle
1st come, 1st served until they are reduced back to level 0 in a node siege
manic holly
I'm just thinking that every other node adjacent to a metropolis could be leveled first so that a wall of decreasing node tiers doesn't form around the metropolis instead
6 in the center, three 5s around it, three 4s between the 5s
dark jungle
it would be almost impossible to have a full ring of 5s around a metro because their borders would touch
you could have a 545454 kind of pattern though
manic holly
Surrounding a T6 node, yes. That's what I'm talking about
manic holly
But then there's the more likely chance of it going 345432 around a T6 node instead, which would limit the amount the nodes around the metropolis can grow
manic holly
Thus my inquiry about "city malformation"
True. Should have worded it to relate more to efficient design
stuck cape
So sieges are the only method planned for the destruction of nodes other than maybe atrophy?
sterile herald
Also world events
stuck cape
Sounds cool can't wait
manic holly
Would be neat to need to fight off a dragon seeking to destroy a city.
There's also that siege demon that was shown off not that long ago.
stuck cape
I just worry that in the very** long term** (with an atrophy system) there would be an overlevelling problem of nodes, as you can use a trick to allow two levels of the same node to exist next to eachother, can both of those nodes be upgraded at the same time once the central node upgrades a level?
Seems exploitable longterm
dark jungle
there is an atrophy system planned for ashes. the only question is if it destroys the nodes or delevels them
and super unlikely
stuck cape
but if it exists players will exploit it
dark jungle
its not really exploitable because there are no indicators to players about the xp a node has or when it will level
desert ivy
If you're implying that 2 groups of people will intentionally level 2 nodes at the same time then I can never imagine that happening intentionally.
^
dark jungle
also the world manager will make choices of zoi expansion that can interfere with any kind of meta
desert ivy
Plus, even if you could see the xp, 1 single player would throw that out of wack. If a dude wasn't in on the plan and just goes around farming mobs, then the node he's farming in will level first
dark jungle
anyway you are speculating on things that have an extremely low likelihood and would be incredibly hard for players to engineer
stuck cape
I see, well fair enough if that chance is that small, i've met some crazy groups of players before, and if the map is so large with so much unconquered land people could go into a server with the intention of setting this up
dark jungle
best to wait until a2 then show if it can be done or not

Do we pick classes at character creation ? And are there in game trainers or is everything level up and acquired through your menus ?
desert ivy
You pick your primary archetype at character creation (which can't be changed later on). At level 25 you pick your secondary archetype (which can be changed later on with some effort). There aren't in-game trainers. You acquire skill points upon levelling up which you distribute to your skills as you see fit.
You can opt for fewer skills but those skills having more skill points invested in them, thus making them stronger, or you can opt for more skills with not as much power in them with fewer skill points invested.

This may have been answered somewhere else, but I haven't seen anyone discussing healing very much.
