questions

[tawny cedar]

No worries. Map can still need like tweaking to make it look a bit less cluttery and stuff.

[weak dome]

dang someone was faster than me lol

[proper crag]

Wooooow I'm a dingus. You guys rock ❤️

[valid condor]

Novice cooking station, anyone know where?

[tawdry mason]

dont fall in the holes on the bridge

🙂

[calm cosmos]

Pretty sure there's one there, I think theres also one in ever node.

[valid condor]

Thanks!

I see it

[quick moss]

Hey guys, I'm trying to reinstall on a different drive, but the launcher isn't actually uninstalling/reinstalling when I select the options. It just closes the launcher and reopens and prompts me to log back in then continues patching again. Any ideas?

[calm cosmos]

use control panel?

[quick moss]

I'm not sure that will uninstall the game since it seems to only show the launcher there.

NVM, it seems it uninstalled it ok that way. Thanks

[tawny totem]

I had this issue. Had to let it finish patching, then completely uninstall. Then reinstall and it asked me to choose a drive

[dire oak]

What is the glint -> money conversion?

[kind estuary]

10 crappy white glint = 1 silver

[stable plover]

Alternatively, you could trade the glint for caravan goods and take it somewhere else for higher profit.

[dire oak]

do you know if you go further with the caravan, if it will trade for more?

[near stump]

How do you get stop mobs from flashbanging you?

[stable plover]

Typically, I think there's simulated supply and demand going on so maybe doing some underserved route might get a better result than just a far one. Profits seem to be in the 4-10x range. I definately don't know the exact math going on / haven't seen a well researched breakdown of it yet. (One might exist that I'm unaware of)

[near stump]

Reset graphics settings and it didnt help

[frail ravine]

do you keep your citizen vendor tickets if you switch node citizenships?

[kind estuary]

Are those generally pretty safe solo? 12 of us joined someones caravan and nobody (including the person who started it) got anything lol. Might go try some solo if so.

[stable plover]

They're not intended to do solo really, but theoretically possible. I think the current ideal atm would be something like 12 people each with their own caravans who travel as a group but defend each other. Could also do organized payouts amongst a friend group. Rewards/bribes for helping defend a caravan are planned but not implemented.

[kind estuary]

ah tyvm!

[sage ferry]

Is there going to be a character wipe when the servers go up 5 days a week in december?

[near stump]

Yes

[sage ferry]

ty

[mellow granite]

is the lasting rate random for this?

Im wondering what makes the channel hold

[elder stream]

is Slivers of the past quest time based or just not finishable rn?

[west smelt]

so wave 2 of the alpha 2 starts on december 20 right? if its 5 days a week what days because december 20 is a friday?

[valid condor]

Anyone know a use for raven or grem meat? I wanted to level my cooking so I made them meat, but now I can't do anything with them.

[sand parrot]

Dec. 20th is the first scheduled wipe, according to Sir Steven

[frail ravine]

do you keep your citizen vendor tickets if you switch node citizenships?

[tawdry mason]

where is the best place to level to 10?

[hearty basin]

Not really one spot you can stay the whole way to 10

[tawdry mason]

how about from level 6, what should i be doing?

[hearty basin]

Grem event NE of Briarmoor imo

Get a group, sit there and just do the event over and over and over

No Loot, but better xp than anywhere else

[tawdry mason]

i'll give it a shot, thx

[azure vessel]

[vivid token]

I have a mayoral commission that has the green check, all the listed objectives are complete, but it wont let me turn it in, the button "complete commission" says the quest is incomplete. What am I missing or is this bugged?

[quasi grail]

Just finished moving a caravan from one node to another but when I got into the node the caravan disappeared and it is asking me to unpack 3 crates. Where do I find the crates to unpack? Is this bugged?

[azure vessel]

the new nodes caravan master

[quasi grail]

It appears to be empty

[azure vessel]

idk mine was there, i'm assuming youre in winsted

[quasi grail]

yeah

went from Joeva to Winstead

[azure vessel]

strange idk mine was there I went from New Aela to Joyea

[quasi grail]

were you able to access the crates right away?

[azure vessel]

well I got attacked by like 6 players, made it, taunted them, they killed me and I had to run back

so not right away right away

[quasi grail]

I guess ill check back later

[azure vessel]

it was pretty quick though

if you're thinking about unpack time, that happens later when you retrieve the crates

then you have the 5 min wait

[quasi grail]

hmm I guess I'll go post to bugs

[azure vessel]

yeah and maybe just to be extra safe check halcyon

[quasi grail]

It would be weird if it were there since the radius was in winstead

[azure vessel]

ya idk just a thought process as the caravan line is weird

but it's probably not there

[timid magnet]

where do i get recepies for lvl 10 armor ? or how do i gear up afther things like river stalker set are not the best to have anymore ?

[light python]

hello, i got a blackscreen when i load the game, around 18%, then i got a error message "can't retrieve..." someone fixed the same problem?

[keen siren]

did devs do anything to the pallas cat spawns in my server Aeterna i can't find any in the normal spawns

[scarlet light]

[scarlet light]

It's auto saved. If it's not showing up, report it as a bug

[frank fractal]

Ok thx

[scarlet light]

LOL, no. I just happened to know because I spent about 5 min looking for it the other day and looked over it countless times.

[lilac sorrel]

i have growlers and juicers helmet, but they are not showing up on my character, is there a toggle on and off helmet or something like that? Or a bug ( female empyrean) ☺️

[main thunder]

if i was to say buy the (Alpha Two First Wave Bundle)
right now, how much more time would i have to play it

the full day of sunday then Next weekend ,/ the next?

[short flint]

Sunday, and then every weekend up to Dec 20th. Then it'll switch to the 5-day a week schedule

[strong dagger]

I thought the devs fixed the stash issues, so WHY DID MY STASH GET WIPED 5x ALREADY THIS WEEKEND?????? All my heroic items, all the stuff I was saving to do a mass sell...just gone.

[main thunder]

thanks for the information Threather, i think ill be joining in 🙂

[west smelt]

[ocean glacier]

I'm having issues enabling Frame Generation? Mine says "Not supported by your RHi

[fading linden]

I cant attune at emberspring's?

[ancient egret]

are you in combat

[oak saffron]

Sorry if this isn't the place for it, but I'm curious about Whirlwind with the Fighter Archetype. Don't know if it's a bug or it's designed to be this way, everytime I hit a target it grants more momentum than consumes creating an infinite Whirlwind as long as the target is alive

[west smelt]

given that the game is account based, are vpns allowed (for connection issue purposes if that matters)

if not no stress just wanna know what my options are for when i get the game if i have connection issues

[primal trail]

do /bug ingame and report it if it feels like one

[median nova]

im trying to get the herbilism cert but for some reason everytime i try to talk to the dude nothing happens... any tips?

[primal trail]

level 10 herbalism for apprentice

[median nova]

ohhhh i seeee thankyou

i thought they gave you quests that you can use to lvl up

[quaint void]

how to show Ping and FPS in game?

[simple tusk]

how did you notice because i died like atleast a hundred times already trolling around testing things i still have the same stats and deal the same amount of damage on my ranger ?

[broken anchor]

is there any way to turn off the fog, the whole world is so foggy

[devout bane]

what is with xdelta3 whenever i try to update it opens 3 of em and grinds my computer to a hault eating 100% of ram

[wind silo]

this the emberspring, right?

even the cleric says so

so where do i attune to this? is there an emote i gotta do or what?

[glacial star]

Will I be able to play the alpha with these specs? I checked the minimum requirements and it seems I barely get by?
Intel i7-4770K, 16GB
GTX 1070 Ti, 16GB
1440p

[sly monolith]

i play on medium with 1080 TI

its okish

will buy new comp

[lunar sky]

I am also rocking 1070Ti with amd 7500F and it works good on medium 1920x1080 ( i have 4k monitor but it stutters way too much on 4k)

[wind silo]

i'm on gtx 1070, 1080p, its playable but it has its quirks

think defaulted to medium settings, sitting at around 30-45fps

[lunar sky]

yeah its not perfect but its ok for testing purposes

[glacial star]

Hopefully it'll only get optimized and more lenient rather than more demanding

[wind silo]

not sure if my eyes are getting worse, or if this is actually hard to read

the letters kinda want to blend in

[hard bay]

Husbandry Station says I have insufficient ressources. Am I missing something?

We have enough fuel to start the job and we also have enoguh Silver

[glacial star]

It's hard to read, yes.

[lunar sky]

fonts in this game are as bad as Tera used to be

[light topaz]

i found a way to glitch up to the upper levels of tower of carphin

[wind silo]

shame i cant zoom into 1st person's view, harder to check stuff with my char's neck being in the middle

[tired elm]

Do anyone know the Fang the road terror spawns? cant find him...

[edgy pivot]

if i die there is a possibility to lose items completly even if i go back and pick it up ?

[west smelt]

given that the game is account based, are vpns allowed (for connection issue purposes if that matters)
if not no stress just wanna know what my options are for when i get the game if i have connection issues

[wind silo]

you drop materials, if i remember correctly, but not gear or other items

and thats only for pvp deaths?

i could be talking shit, someone double check me

[edgy pivot]

I mean i drop materials after getting killed by mobs - most usually i was able to pick them up but just lost my green mount to be so im wondering if that is a bug or by design 😛

[vague copper]

I think no one can help me with this, but currently kind of ruining my experience. My node material storage does not work. Yes, I can place items there. When I change tab between storage and material, I still can see the materials. But if I close the window and open again, the whole material storage "slot" is closed, prompting me buying it when I open it again (Its free), and all the material is gone.

I love crafting and gathering, but now I have to keep all the mats on me, or use it all

[wind silo]

that sounds like a bug, worth reporting

[scarlet light]

Correct. At the moment, any death results in a loss of mats, regardless of whether you get to collect your remains or not. Seems like a bug, but maybe it's intended

[plush torrent]

isnt it 25% inventory no matter what?

[stable viper]

Is there a known bug for being unable to complete the quest to defend a caravan? Me and abut 20 guild members didn't get the complete and some people before us didn't either

[vague copper]

I heard (rumors) that you drop 50% and have a chance to recover 25% of those items

hey! anyone know how i can change my horse! Mine, Its the ugliest horse i ve ever seen!!!!

You learn this at the starter area quest

[last minnow]

ok my mining is at lvl 7

[plush torrent]

Every skill starts at novice, you should be able to make one once you get the materials (or at the very least, at level 10).

[fickle jay]

Are armors race linked in appearance right now? I have yet to find a cape I was looking for (brown and fluffy), but I am only using Empyrean

[last minnow]

Yea I have all the mats

altho my lvl is only at 8

[fickle jay]

I was able to make all the Novice tools, albiet getting copper and flax is "fun" and I was disappointed that Level 20 is when I can start cutting new trees (level 15)

[plush torrent]

might need to be at character level 10 (I am about to make one myself, and I am not yet level 10)

Copper is annoying. Now that I know what flax looks like I can find it pretty easily

[cinder torrent]

There may be a typo in the arch/steam deck launch options snippet at USEEOS=0. I had to change it to -USEEOS=0 as in the other snippets to enter the game.

How dose level impact loot drops?

why does every mob for quests have so loooong spawn time?...

Why does Ashes look different from the videos posted two years ago? Where are the flowing grasses and flowers?

[short quarry]

Can we link items in chat?

[summer lynx]

No

[fair monolith]

Hey, how do I contact the admin of this server to get 'webhook permissions' in order to add the alpha two channels to this server so I can follow them? Cheers

[cerulean latch]

It's 25% but if you have blight. It. Light be more check your character stats for blight. It. No lights it should be 25. And rarity of the material does not matter.

[fair monolith]

(new to discord)

[broken anchor]

silly q, where can I buy bags and a new wand 😄

[short quarry]

A vendor in any node city

[next gull]

yes thats weird to read

[next gull]

its alpha, graphics get worked on/improved just before beta or in beta

[vague copper]

It sounded like a downgrade, not improvement

[cerulean latch]

No you can. Make novice tools under 10 you have to have all the mats and fuel. Don't think lionhold has the novice stations in it. You have to go else we're to the west or another ciry

[night bronze]

Serwers online?

[cerulean latch]

The wind was blowing Friday for me everything was moving

[steel trench]

I understand. It looks so different from the previous showcase two years ago (Dynamic Seasons and Weather Developer Chat). Thanks for replying anyway.

[next gull]

that'll come in time

now its very basic game graphics, the alpha stage now is purely for server stability

[cerulean latch]

I saw snow last weekend in game coming down

[next gull]

and testing other stuff

[fair monolith]

and how do I join one of the alpha two channels?

[next gull]

and tbh if they crancked all the graphics up now i doubt anyone regardless what pc they have would have a good time its prob not optimised

[cerulean latch]

You have to be part of the alpha

[vital saddle]

Hello, I bought the Alpha 2,, wave 3 back in August, and I bought the upgrade so I can play on the alpha now. I have receipt in email of purchase but my account isnt showing the purchase. I am not able to download anything or play. I purchased it over a day ago. I logged a ticket but havent heard anything. Do any of you have any ideas on what I can do?

[raven mantle]

is there a known bug about quest mobs not respawning?

[hasty nimbus]

Are there any features in the alpha right now that don't exist in other mmos?

[quaint void]

Monster Lost?

[fair monolith]

Yeah I am, I am playing it right now

I got into this chat, but cant access the alphs two channels? Not sure how

[opaque basalt]

Can someone show me their combat settings because i just made a figher and I'd say 30% of the time i cast whirlwind it immedately cancels itself or it canecls halfway through the cast

[tawdry holly]

Hello, can someone explain me a bit the math behind this numbers?

[solemn matrix]

looks like maybe the number displayed in the comparison box may be incorrect?

seems like a smiple mistake or maybe im also missing something lol

[crystal beacon]

Are the copper spawn still bugged, been 2days since i found a single block

[solemn matrix]

i have found more this weekend than i did last weekend.

[opaque basalt]

What do you mean

shortbows shoot faster and are better to proc status effects longbows are slower but do more damage

[crystal beacon]

when? cause the last 2 days over 100 people havent found a single one on the entire map

[solemn matrix]

this is what i missed 😂

[plush torrent]

There were at least 10 found today (I found 2, someone ss'd that they also found a few)

[solemn matrix]

I have found like 4-5 nodes of copper yesterday. i did travel alot and went to some edges of the map while traveling which may be just some spots people havent been to find it

[plush torrent]

and thats just the last 2 hours or so.

[tight pagoda]

anyone know

[opaque basalt]

node cities animal husbandry bench

[blazing needle]

anyone knows where to find servers opening and closing times?

[crystal beacon]

if it was yesterday might it got fixed, hopefully, copper is pretty much used on every first tool/weapon/gear without it you're stuck xD thanks

[opaque basalt]

in #alpha-two-news

[tawdry holly]

what i ment was the math behind the numbers in comparison box

[opaque basalt]

pretty clear to me that its not displaying the intended values. Bug report it

[solemn matrix]

please see 17 copper frags

[crystal beacon]

nice good, ima look then

[tawdry holly]

allright tought it was some % of somethign from something idk....

[halcyon pivot]

the shortbow has a lower dmg rating but a multiple basic attack longbow has higher att rating but only 3 basic attack till finisher

[jolly rivet]

When they wipe will it be a completely fresh start or will we keep our characters and stuff?

[sturdy coral]

its back to lvl 1 for all.. total wipe

[dusky junco]

[jolly rivet]

So like the character and all will be gone or just progress reset

[sturdy coral]

i think the char and all is gone and you need to make new

[jolly rivet]

Ah ok. Just wondering about my character name lmao. Got a cool one don't really wanna lose it

[sturdy coral]

[echo kiln]

Does anyone know how to fix the launcher not appearing? I attempt to open it but its invisible i try to tab to it but nothing appears. I have already tried repairing and uninstalling but nothing.

[sturdy coral]

check the intervju whit steven and Thor/piratestoftware.

[jolly rivet]

Sorry for all the questions I'm sure it's posted somewhere i just can't find it and just saw someone in game talking about it.

But when will the wipe happen? I'm assuming on the start of the next alpha phase?

[sturdy coral]

20 dec is what i have heard

so phase 2

[calm spoke]

Just bought the key to the alpha wave that started early this november. anyone know how to download?
Will need a group also

[jolly rivet]

Ok thank you for your help!

[sturdy coral]

np mate ^^,

[cerulean latch]

You might need to relink your discord with your intrepid account or you never did to begin with

[dusty stag]

How do we get alpha two chat channels access?

[sturdy coral]

log in to the website and in the courner you should se >Get Launcher<

[sturdy coral]

you need connect your acc whit discord

you do that on the website

Acc connections - connect

[ancient warren]

I'm having this issue! Give me the option to connect but I need to verify my account, but no option to do so. I have done the link in the email, but nothign happens

[dusty stag]

1 morw question, do we have guild window in game? cant find this option at all

[ancient warren]

Keybind is U

[sturdy coral]

that problem can''t i help whit sry

[ancient warren]

No worries 🙂

[cerulean latch]

You have to link your discord in you intrepid account. Go to the web page it's. One of your account options

[minor star]

Hey guys, I have a question. I purchased an access key for phase 2 of Alpha 2. When and where can I download the game and launcher?

[scenic owl]

Solid numbers @crystal beacon

[cerulean latch]

When you link it should pop the discord web page to log into to finish the process

[scenic owl]

i already spent 10 of them too

[solemn matrix]

^ this guy fucks

[ancient warren]

This is what I get

[cerulean latch]

Is it possible you intrepid account need the email verified?

There was. A web big awhile back. Can you see the forum discussions fully if not or you can not log into the forum them you need to redo your email with your game account they have a discussion in the help area of the website on how to resolve this.

[sturdy coral]

laucher you can download from the website.. you should see it in the courner >Get Launcher< and play time for you is 20 dec, that is pashe 2 start in the alpha

[ancient warren]

I follow the link, takes me to webpage, I go to account connections I press it and I get that error. But I will check the forums thank you 🙂

[scarlet light]

What bridge is the Burnt Ends quest referring to?

[cerulean latch]

Try to get into the forums first.

[ancient warren]

I can sign in to the forum no issue.

[minor star]

@sturdy coral I'm currently logged in the website but I only see the Join the Alpha button. Does this mean I don't have access yet or I should ask support?

[sturdy coral]

then you need to wait to 20 dec it seems

[cerulean latch]

Try clearing the Ole browser cach and cookies

[minor star]

@sturdy coral ok, I will wait patiently until then. I just wanted to have the game installed beforehand and be ready 🙂

[sturdy coral]

🫡

[ancient warren]

Aye this one worked! Thank you for the help 🙂

[scarlet light]

Does anyone know what bridge is the Burnt Ends quest referring to?

[bitter canopy]

[cinder hound]

yea exactly, its 20th december

[hard ridge]

[near stump]

Caravan defender. It might be bugged if it’s still there once you’re done with the caravan

[near stump]

To speak in #alpha-two-bugs-issues-old you need to have access to current testing and link your discord via step 3 of #read-me-first

[wanton haven]

Anyone got a fix for the not loading” can’t find character list bug

[short quarry]

What happens when you mix ingredient rarities while crafting something like artisan tools?

Does it come out as the rarity of the lowest ingredient used or does it scale somewhere in between?

[azure lion]

Hello good people, how do I join a guild ?

[signal copper]

how to check ping server?

[fresh notch]

hello i have a security error when clicking on the download link for alpha 2 at the following link i found :

https://ashesofcreation.com/download

What can i do ?

[crystal beacon]

@signal copper if in game you can check fps and latency in ms with the hotkeys / macro in game shift alt f

the data will be on upper right side of screen about 5-10% down the right side screen

faint green numbers

[sharp peak]

my friend gets a black screen at like 12%loading into the game and then the game loads in layers and then his 3080 seems to crash, any news on a fix ? forum is dry

[signal copper]

i think this only FPS, and latency of graphic, not connection ping

[crystal beacon]

ahh opk

my bad

@signal copper i am not putting you down in any means but what are your settings at ? 14fps is low in my opinion,

i gte 70 -90 on ultra

get* (sorry , not trying to boast ) i dont think i would like the game at 14bfps

14fps *

[signal copper]

yes in city so bad, but outside is fine, old GPu 2060

[crystal beacon]

is it still enjoyable and not laggy for you?

[signal copper]

what gpu are you using?

[crystal beacon]

ahhh my gpu card was 2060 4 cards ago

4060ti

8gb

[signal copper]

want to upgrade, but waiting 5000 version

[crystal beacon]

ahh ok

[signal copper]

[oak sand]

Does anyone know why I wouldnt be able to ad a comment on the Alpha Two Bug reporting forum. Trying to make a comment on the forum post about this #alpha-two-news message
i dont have the normal Comment box at the bottom of the page and im not sure why

[terse locust]

cant find char timed out

[hollow wolf]

I keep getting "Failed to retrieve character list"
Are they having issues?

[lusty matrix]

will there be another reset after the december one?

[terse locust]

failed to retrive character list is all i see when i try to log in

[surreal gorge]

What is this item for anyone know?

[surreal gorge]

of course the game is in alpha then beta

[terse locust]

failed to retrive character list is all i see when i try to log in

[surreal gorge]

You typed the same message twice people can see what you wrote the questions is more for community questions if you are really struggling contact support the only thing I can suggest is change realm or restart the game which id imagine you already tried

[terse locust]

i did that by mistake but thx

[terse locust]

i copied it to paste it there

[oblique relic]

I reported this bug but wanted to see if there was a work around.. I got dc'd right before entering a town with my caravan. When I logged back in i had to "recover" my caravan. But when I entered the town and it got collected, I went to the commodity vendor and show no items. Are they just gone or can I do something to retrieve them?

[surreal gorge]

I might be wrong but would this come under "If items in your node inventory, or your entire node storage disappears" that they posted in alpha two news?

[oblique relic]

Hmm possibly. I just did a hard reset. The rest of my storage seems to be there just not the commodity items.

[craggy hollow]

@idle siren I kinda don't want my character to be wiped in december.. it's my fault for getting too connected, i know

[latent lake]

i can only recommend not to ping devs unless needed, they are quite busy

[craggy hollow]

Have you seen anyone else share that sentiment? That toons being wiped in Dec. might be a bummer?

[fair monolith]

I still cant contact a server admin to ask permission to add channels?

@idle siren can you help, I have paid to join Alpha an dplaying it but cant access the channels for alpha 2? (not too familoiar with discord but want to get involved)

[latent lake]

yea i get that but its how it is, its a new phase new player will come in and also people replaying from lvl 1 might lead to discovering new/more bugs

[surreal gorge]

On the website it tells you how to connect your discord.

[fair monolith]

ah ok

[latent lake]

also there are mods that are more likely to reply back

[fair monolith]

which website, there are a few urls about?

ill google

[surreal gorge]

the one you purchases the game on

[latent lake]

#read-me-first message

[latent lake]

.

[surreal gorge]

Theres an account section that asks you if you want to link your discord and then you can do it.

[fair monolith]

ah amazing, cheers for that! There is just a lot of info when you join this for the first time and not used to it

just done it

[surreal gorge]

Enjoy your playing 🙂

[earnest lance]

hi all - just logged in again after last week, my load screen keeps starting again - any fix for that?

[dusty stag]

Do I need specific level to do caravanas? I have no clue how to pack those crates with stone etc

[surreal gorge]

They can be attacked by other players so id suggest against doing it without being able to defend it

[dusty stag]

it doesnt matter, I just want to finish the quest and test the system. Im told to pack 3 small crates with 20 wood and stones each. But I have no idea how and where.. I bought 3 small crates from NPC but thats it

[sturdy coral]

is Captian Roderick Bloodbane bugd?

or does he not spawn?

[sharp peak]

ive defo seen him before but ive also seen it bug and cease spawning

[dusty stag]

nvm figured it out myself

[near stump]

Packing crates is bugged for some people

[sturdy coral]

ok thx

[crystal beacon]

anyone else not been able to connect since friday's shut down and restart? message ive gotten since then

[delicate ibex]

[sharp peak]

my friend gets a black screen at like 12%loading into the game and then the game loads in layers and then his 3080 seems to crash, any news on a fix ? forum is dry

[dusty stag]

and so caravanas can only be delivered to other nodes?

[craggy turret]

Will daggers be at the start of phase 2? Considering they the rogue’s weapon of choice.

[hollow kettle]

What do you all think is the most under played class?

[bronze sparrow]

Anyone know how to solve this error. after all research, I believe it is due to my Intel Iris Xe graphic card on my laptop. anyone managed to play with Intel irix Xe GPU?

[fresh notch]

hello, i tried starting the game today and my character is deleted each time i try launching the game. It says cannot access to characters list, game closes and then the toon gets deleted. Can anyone please help ?

[fresh notch]

ah

i get this and i cannot play

[covert knot]

My axe's durability is 0....where do I go to fix it around the starter area?

[shrewd harbor]

Ok so for a background Bards have the ability to do a flourish a rush forward with 2 charges and a 20s cooldown, this as well as their main ability a quick wit with a 8s cooldown and a 2nd charge as a skill tree item, grants pep a 20% speed boost for 4 seconds stack this with epic melody for bonus stamina Regen and 10% speed bonus then simply sprint and you bards are the fastest land animal with good timing you can have pep almost infinitely by juggling flourish-quick wit
The real question is does anyone actually want to go through all the trouble of doing this when it’s only mildly better than a bear

Any merchant it’s in the bottom left corner of their menu

[last minnow]

Vender will fix it click the little hammers on the bottom left

[covert knot]

Ahhh...I see the icons now...thx

[worn viper]

ive only crashed once

will towns/villages have different look in the future or allways just depending on the level but looking the same?

[signal copper]

depend on race influnce

[subtle lodge]

Is that game time p.s.t. time

[lusty holly]

your local time

[stable ibex]

Thanks! Corrected it 👍

[night swift]

hey, just a short question, is it normal to wait 10 - 15 minutes in the loading screen and it starts every 1 minute again to load ?

[lament bison]

no, try closing the game and launch it again

[obsidian comet]

Is AoC only available on the test weekends advertised or are you guys in a full alpha?

[lament bison]

if that issue still happens try repair the files on the launcher

[lament bison]

for now only weekends, 20dec starts phase 2 which servers will be on for 5days a week

[obsidian comet]

Thanks

[night swift]

@lament bison thanks, now im in game for the first time. 🥹

[lament bison]

anyone has the link for the known bug issues? i still can't purchase a new caravan xd

[lament bison]

cool, enjoy the test

:)

[graceful otter]

whats the button for a screenshot and where do i find them?

[verbal silo]

Can I not Respec Passive to frost now?

[ornate basin]

do we know the approximate time it takes for hunting mobs to respawn?

[lament bison]

should be the usual print-screen key on your keyboard

[lament bison]

respec is free, maybe you don't have enough points, try disabling one ability able the ability you want

[lament bison]

15min ish i think? last weekend they used to respawn faster but i think they changed the timers

[verbal silo]

no like I respec it all back but I can't switch it to show me frost passives, the first thing you pick like frost, fire or electric mage

[ornate basin]

yea i been farming the cats for last few hours and the spawns seemed inconsistent so i wasnt sure if i should bug report it or not xD ive had 2 node i hunt myself then one of the 2 dosnt spawn back over 2 hours while ive gathered from the first one like 5-6 times

i know they added variance to respawn timers so i think when they did that they accidentally didnt add a cap to high end

[worn viper]

Can trade good for a caravan be traded to another player?
to haul in the others caravan

[lament bison]

ah i get it now, there is no ice abiltites you can choose besides the fire one, which is firebolt or fireball

if you get that white cross icon it means you gotta choose between 2 or more abilties, you cannot have both at the same time

the ice skill tree doesn't has a passive that you can choose inbetween

[lament bison]

2hrs seems alot indeed, maybe there is a issue with the timers, not much we can do about it then

[ornate basin]

yea i put a ticket in to be safe. i gues worst case they read it and disregard if working as intended xD

[grizzled yarrow]

have they said when the rogue is coming now that they have said it wont make it to beginning of p2

[crystal beacon]

No they have not specified

[lament bison]

maybe in the middle of phase 2, but no one knows when exactly, it's just wait and see

[desert ivy]

Steven has mentioned that it won't be at the start of Phase 2. He said that it'd "likely" be within the first few months of P2 starting but could always get delayed

[opal yew]

I'm trying to join the Alpha but I keep getting the error when creating an intrepid account : "There was a problem creating your account. Please check the information below is correct and not already in use!" whenever I try and sign up. Ive tried different emails, browsers and user names. I'm meeting password criteria. I don't see people talking about this being a current problem online. Is anyone willing to test this ?

[ripe elk]

Hi, is there a way to stay logged in in the launcher ? Right now you have to do 2 factor auth every single launch which is quite cumbersone after a while ..

[steel wadi]

does any of the moderators know if they plan to unlock areas in asia?
a couple of my guys won keys and they are from Vietnam but are locked out from playing the game.

[keen notch]

Going purple corrupted in the tropics is just for alpha right not offical launch?

[keen siren]

from my understanding yes but in the future there will be zones that work like that

[desert ivy]

Correct. Desert and Tropics are currently marked as "lawless zones" as the Ocean isn't currently in the game (which is intended to be an open PvP zone)

[tender hearth]

Ashes of Creation Wiki

Lawless zones

Lawless zones are open-world areas where the corruption system is disabled. These are intended to be an Alpha-2-only feature to help test what will become open-sea content.

Entering a lawless zone will immediately flag characters for PvP.
Lawless zones are scheduled for release in Alpha-2 phase-1.
Lawless zones are not intended to be utilized aft...

[desert ivy]

Unfortunately not

[keen siren]

will there be land lawless zones?

would be nice ngl

[desert ivy]

Not currently the plan

everytime i try to download the launcher it just bogs down my pc and nothing works

[subtle lodge]

i got 3

[subtle coral]

@crystal beaconMine does that too but if I let run it will eventually connect..

[quasi latch]

is there a way to buy alpha key in order to gift a friend?

[upper garnet]

Is there a way to pick the server you open up to each time you launch? I get put into a different server each time and have to switch to the server for the characters I made.

[little sluice]

never could only thing you could change electric frost or fire was your weapon passive finisher

[desert ivy]

Not atm

[quasi latch]

sad

[subtle coral]

@upper garnetNot that I've found... starts on a random server for me troo every time

[upper garnet]

Thanks

Node Collect Commission broken ? Harvest 25 Wood and Quest is rdy but i cant complete it, Button is grey ..... relog dont work

[crisp nebula]

what did you figure out, i'm stuck at this point too

[light topaz]

what does he mean pushed? Will there not be any maintenance today?

[ionic furnace]

anyone know if the mobs folloin gme to the ends of earth is intended or not? Sometimes have no choice but to take a mob to a town to have a guard get it off me cus its 5 lvl higher and it wont give up.

[crisp nebula]

did you ever figure this out? i'm stumpped on this too

[drifting needle]

Hi fellas, quick question, I launch a caravan without any crate inside, is there a way to cancel it to get back my caravan ? Or at least dont loose the legendary caravan I use haha

[boreal prism]

How to toggle helm visibility on and off?

[slate condor]

cant confirm choices on my cleric when i want to spend my skill points. even with a new character it doesnt work. someonelse got this problem?

[balmy talon]

is it possible to transfer items between alts?

[zealous ocean]

uh theres a majopr PVP bug thats free flagging with the caravans. the flags never go away even in towns after the event ends.

what do i dio because a bug report doesnt seem fast enough.

[vast hemlock]

On Server "Shol" we got a Player named: "imao" so not written with a "L" but with an "I". This guy is in PVP mode and kills people the whole time outside of the city - area south - anything possible to intervent here? Now he killed me inside the city - was standing afk there.

[light topaz]

just ask a friend to hold ur shit then give it to ur alt

[vast hemlock]

my "alt" is lvl 4. i also got a XP decrease by 21k. Other Friends in my guild got a 40k decrease - most of all is 60k...

that guy is really griefing so much... not fun anymore

This guy here.

Can't respawn inside the city - because he bug abuses and kills us. Guards are not attacking him. Bug abusing.

[desert ivy]

@junior ember Dunno if that's something you'd want an @ for

@idle siren

Actually Steven likes punishing griefers

[vast hemlock]

would appreciate that.

i respawned now - got a PVP-Flag and the guards killed me. #alpha-two-bugs-issues-old

[zealous ocean]

what level is he and what world

lyneth?

[echo kiln]

Does anyone know what causes the launcher to be invisible? When i tab to it nothing appears I already uninstalled and repaired.

[noble pine]

For the town storage, can you pull from any settlements storage regardless of which one you're in?

[hasty nimbus]

Isn't that a risk of a "do anything you want, nonconsenual pvp" game? If he wants to be a villain until he gets put down and terrorize a city, if it's possible shouldn't be punished for it.

[tight pagoda]

Well I think the premise is the key word bug if guards aren’t killing him in the city lol

[desert ivy]

Issue is he's bug exploiting to do so

[hasty nimbus]

Then the devs should fix the bug, do we know what the bug is exactly? If we aren't sure what the bug is. Kinda hard to blame him for intentionally abusing it

[manic wharf]

guild war = exploit lol

[tight pagoda]

Well I mean if you’re flagged and corrupted in city with no guard aggro…

[desert ivy]

They've made it clear that they'll punish people if they knowingly bug exploit

[manic wharf]

no corruption it's guild war

[desert ivy]

If you find a bug, reproduce it, report it, you're fine. If you find a bug, then exploit it, you'll get slapped

[desert lantern]

what lvl range can i have in my group and everyone get exp?

[hasty nimbus]

Does this mean it's not a bug and someone else is just upset without knowing all the mechanics and complaining about bug abuse?

This is what I was concerned about.

[tight pagoda]

Oh I didn’t know this hm guess that’s probably what it is then and guessing wars make players lose more xp? Just trying to understand everything he said

[manic wharf]

exactly

[scarlet verge]

I feel stupid but been stuck at lvl5 for 3 straight days, how exactly do you like get exp in this? can't seem to find questing hubs and whenever I do find a quest it seems unfinishable

[hasty nimbus]

Which is why crying about hackers and bug and exploits seeking retribution is a slippery slope

[tight pagoda]

Find a good spot and just farm the mobs

[tight pagoda]

Yeah no I agree I was just going off what he said in here

[hasty nimbus]

Fair.

Are there any systems in this game that are exclusive that the devs have made? I know there's alot planned and it sounds like the ripple system books by Kyle kirin(i love them) but do we have any implemented as proof of concept that these promises can be met?

I know I'm a huge fan of the proposed class system creating hybrid, and really excited to play a summoner of some sort

[desert ivy]

He's still exploiting if the guards aren't attacking him. He's corrupted, which means he should be instantly being KOS'd by the guards, yet they're not hitting him

So he's taking advantage of that

[crystal beacon]

check your Dms i sent you some info

[desert ivy]

The game in its current state (and maybe even later on) isn't a questing to level MMO. It's a grind mobs to level MMO

[desert lantern]

Anyone know the lvl spread i can have maximum and still get exp?

[noble pine]

4 or 5 I think

[versed horizon]

with deminshing returns

[trim rain]

are you able to spend node credits in other nodes? my node doesnt have gear I want

[pearl quail]

what will the first updated classes be?

[spare venture]

This bums me out. I’m a quester all the way and would much rather do quests all day than grind mobs or dungeons

[desert ivy]

A few months ago we were told that they were working on updating Tank/Cleric/Mage

[pearl quail]

ooo

yeah I been doing tank, its fun but you kinda just have shields lol

which makes sense but

[desert ivy]

You'll most likely be able to level like that at some point, but I doubt it'll ever be the most "efficient" way of leveling. They want to keep grouping as the most efficient way to play

[cold forge]

Are they going to introduce a system for people that game the corruption system? I'm at a farming spot and this guy continually attacks everyone until they're like 100 hp and freezes them in place in front of the mob they're farming. No corruption gained though since he didn't kill them

[shell tangle]

i accidently hit a wrong button, now my action bar shows even the unused squares.. anyone know how to turn off?

[pearl quail]

I think you can just unlock the bar and drag something and it fixes it, worked for me at least

[shell tangle]

ty

[quick bay]

The wiki says that guilds have the ability to expand on skills and capacity in this alpha, but I don't see that in the guild menu. Does anyone know how to interact with that?

[queen hound]

Not implemented yet

[worn wagon]

Systems for guild progression have not been implemented yet

[quick bay]

Thanks for the confirmation. That's super weird though because the wiki shows screenshots marked as "from alpha 1"

What is the current max capacity of guilds then?

[strange yew]

50 in the A2 currently, I believe.

[quick bay]

Cool, thank you.

[placid vapor]

Is there CC in the game? If so, which classes?

[vestal ivy]

anyone know how to get a good shield for tank

[quick bay]

Yes there is CC, most if not all of the classes

[green cedar]

How does corruption work is it when you kill a green or when you do a certain amount of damage

[quick bay]

It's when you deal damage to a green, and I think it's %hp based

[desert ivy]

Currently corruption is when you kill a green

Attacking a green (doing damage) turns you purple (combatant)

if you kill them, you become corrupted (red)

[quick bay]

I don't think it's only killing, is it?

[desert ivy]

Unless it's bugged, it should be

[quick bay]

I wasn't aware of this. Interesting.

I picked up 2 stacks of corruption because I one shot a lvl 3 abusing the loot body mechanic to fend me off from his friend.

[steady trench]

servers die?

[worn wagon]

If your server worker crashed, you should be able to log in again after a few moments

[tawdry swallow]

Anybody knows how to fix the character list error its killing me. It used to be fxied once I create a new character, but now its happening everytime I cant login

[hasty crest]

is it better to sell greens to the vendor or try to trade them

[hasty nimbus]

Are there any systems in this game that are exclusive that the devs have made? I know there's alot planned and it sounds like the ripple system books by Kyle kirin(i love them) but do we have any implemented as proof of concept that these promises can be met?

[low crag]

Can novice tools be crafted at higher rarity, if better mats are provided? Not sure if novice ones are restricted to common or something

[waxen sand]

Should the game be using my CPU instead of my GPU??

[stuck burrow]

yes I have made uncommon novice tools. its just like normal crafting

Does anyone know how to get multiple beast of burden to pull your caravan or is that not out yet?

[faint plume]

It seems like a lot of the quests that require spawns are broken, is anyone having issues seeing bone crusha?

[dry fractal]

Any fix for that?

[pine echo]

What phase is naval ships being introduced? 3?

[stuck burrow]

relogging I believe does the trick

[dry fractal]

Nope, sadly does not

[stuck burrow]

probably not for a while. maybe beta

not enough ocean to use a ship nor is there a real port city (

[pine echo]

Phase 3 it says "the turquoise Sea" so im assuming thats naval stuff

[stuck burrow]

Nevermind then

Does anyone know how to get multiple beast of burden to pull your caravan or is that not out yet?

[simple vector]

anyone know how frequent a "tick" is on here? looking at intimidating aura, "30% of HP as threat every tick"

[stuck burrow]

would guess 1 sec

[dark jungle]

different effects tick at different rates

[steady trench]

Do bounty quest not complete if you dont get final hit? even if a party member kills it

[stuck burrow]

Most quest that require kills need you to get the final hit I believe

[dark jungle]

i think intimidating aura ticks 2 per second

[steady trench]

gotcha

[sweet jungle]

guys anyone know how long is the alpha 2 test is gonna be?

[steady trench]

3rd phase is may of next year

[stuck burrow]

till may I believe

[dark jungle]

phase 3 will last at least a year

[sweet jungle]

so we can play for a year at least?

[dark jungle]

yes

[sweet jungle]

nice

[steady trench]

more than a year but yea

i think that beta will follow pretty close behind alpha

[sweet jungle]

this is gonna be so good finally a game other than league to play

[steady trench]

your mind can finally heal

[sweet jungle]

it wont heal it will just relax abit xd

[waxen sand]

Anyone know how to get the game to stop using the CPU instead of the GPU?

[desert ivy]

Yes, phase 3. As it's on the phase 3 slide it means they want to get it in the game relatively soon after the phase starts, so can most likely expect it next year some time

[oblique ermine]

Not sure if it works, but cranking graphics settings to the max oddly helps with some games, like star citizen, that are heavily cpu based

[waxen sand]

Well the issue is that it's using my integrated graphics on my CPU for some reason instead of using the actual graphics card 😂

[limber sage]

is there a spawn issue for the undead in killing fields?

[stuck burrow]

some areas they only come out at night

[limber sage]

ooh doesnt it specify that in the journal though? i know for thw wolfs it does

[stuck burrow]

baneswood cemetery has night spawns

[fast bear]

Have you tried making the desktop app (AoC exe) use your discrete GPU?

Open the Start menu and type Graphics Settings
Select System Settings
Click Desktop App
Find the AoC exe (I'm on phone so can't remember the name)
Click the AoC exe
Click Options
Select your preferred GPU
Click Save

Also if you have a discrete Nvidia GPU you can prefer a GPU in the Nvidia Graphics panel

[waxen sand]

Should only the GPU be listed there because that's the only option I am currently seeing under power saving & Hight Performance options

[keen holly]

In which phase are they gonna release instanced arena pvp? Or is it even a thing still?

[waxen sand]

By chance do you know which setting that is? I've been looking around the nividia control panel for something like that

[green cedar]

Dota better haha

[fast bear]

It'll be Manage 3D Settings then Preferred Graphics Processor.

[plain kettle]

what time do servers shut down

[stuck burrow]

10pm on sundays

[waxen sand]

The only preferred setting I can find is the "Preferred Refresh rate"

[edgy glen]

how do I make a new axe once mine is broken?

[stuck burrow]

You can repair it at just about any vendor

its in the bottom left corner of their UI

[edgy glen]

where is the axe in my inventory?

[stuck burrow]

hit h and then artisan tab

or you could just use repair all

[edgy glen]

hmm isn't working

getting an error saying unable to repair

have the money for it

[stuck burrow]

try relogging

[robust relic]

Anyone know a fix for the super dark screen? I lowered the Global Illimunation Quality to Low and I get all these black "smokes"

[upper pulsar]

Frame Generation says " Unsupported by RHI"? Frame Generation worked in the previous weekend testing since launch of Alpha 2. Now it will not with a RTX 4090?

[plush hawk]

turn off GPU logging in the launcher

[edgy glen]

Why is hole censored? is that a meme?

[spiral pine]

The chat filter is currently extremely strict

[edgy glen]

told someone to watch out for the hole and they fell in

[pale ice]

what building do you craft apprentice hunting bow?

[stuck burrow]

need a node with the apprentice level stations and they will also have a tool bench for apprentice tools

[pale ice]

yeah but which building is it? is it the cookhouse?

[stuck burrow]

the tool crafter is a seperate bench

[fast bear]

I'll be in the house in 10 mins. I'll check my laptop.

[stuck burrow]

looks like this

[indigo saffron]

@junior ember Yesterday I presented a question regarding a solution to an error I received "Pending Service Connection. Code:32". I was able to fix the problem by disabling IPV6. Just thought I would post this because I see a lot of people having this issue.

[crystal beacon]

love the game but tbh, the travel time is being a huge turn off, play for 5 hours, 3 of those hours in auto walk from place to place, you guys think this is just an alpha inconvenience, or will persist even when game opens up more of the world map?

[spiral pine]

Get a mount

[stuck burrow]

thats how it is intended and yes you should have a mount

[crystal beacon]

i have a mount 140% speed, still doesnt really do sht when you have to travel alot

[stuck burrow]

also the map will only get bigger

[granite turret]

getting screen tearing and flickering with i9-13900k + RTX 4070TI. Is this due to the cpu issues?

LOL

i figured that was the case...next pc is amd so i have that going for me

[limber sage]

The ball in fireball is censored to lol

[heady basin]

If you attack do both weapon procs have a change or procing? Or only the one your using?

[zealous flame]

Travel time will always be a huge factor, yes. If it's 'of annoyance' is subjective though. Faster mounts will be a thing (think Animal Husbandry) as will flying & water mounts.

[dire oak]

Is there anyway to trade cargo, like commodities with other players

[keen notch]

@tender hearth why do you go purple though? That's different to just being flagged right? You can lose items on purple from what I know

[desert ivy]

No, purple is the "combatant" state. You don't lose gear when you're purple

You still lose materials, but you also do when you're green (non-combatant)

[keen notch]

Oh buzzy. Mb, I swear you did but that makes sense

[waxen sand]

It still wants to use the CPU so maybe a different setting?

[fast bear]

what laptop? with CPU / GPU?

[waxen sand]

Desktop actually

[fast bear]

hmmm

So, the HDMI / DisplayPort cable is plugged into your GPU yea? (im just asking)

[solemn hemlock]

People keep advertising "Level 10" weapons. How do I know what level my weapon is?

[waxen sand]

Yeah it's the Display. All good ask away, I'd rather find a fix that might help others as well

[glossy musk]

Honestly this weekend has been less than stellar. Whatever graphical change update happened has made it extremely difficult to be in town. Very heavy frame drops, stuttering and overall slow loading. 😦 Last weekend didn't feel this bad. Running AMD Ryzen 5 5600G, NVidia 3060 and 64 GB ram. 😦

[junior ember]

Ty for this!

[fast bear]

You could go into BIOS and disable the integrated gpu. (just make sure the display cable is actually plugged into your GPU (which cpu / gpu do you have)

[dark jungle]

it should have the level requirement on the tooltip

if not then you can check on the wiki

[waxen sand]

Yeah everything is plugged into the GPU.
i7-8700K, rtx 2080 Super

[fast bear]

I think they posted that this is down to volumetric fog / lighting that they added.

[cold pivot]

Activate Frame…. has changed everthing by me

from 5 fps to 250

[glossy musk]

Hm yeah just haven't seen many other people mention a stuttering/fps drop. My friends aren't having issues as well so makes me wonder if its my PC at this point which is sad days 😦

[crude jetty]

Do we know when the guild banks will be online? I think I read somewhere guilds will be fully implemented by phase 2 so I am assuming guild banks are included in that?

[fast bear]

Honestly the iGPU should be deactivated with the presence of a dGPU.

[fast bear]

my performance is worse than last week - with stutters etc. On both my 3070 and my 6950XT.

[glossy musk]

Hm well at least I feel less alone 🤣 Honestly was really difficult to want to login with how sluggish it felt. Still sent in a dozen bugs though XD

[near stump]

What is the setting to disable AoE dmg to players other than your target in PvP?

[twilit juniper]

YOO STEVENNNN SERVER CRASHING EVERY MINUTE IN RESNA SERVER PLZ

[gray sedge]

anyone getting error code 525?

[potent sigil]

wwhat time do servers close 1am est?

[waxen sand]

I dont mess with bios really ever so just wanted to check to make sure if this was right? I can change the IGA to IGD instead of PEG but other than that it was already set to this

[twilit juniper]

RESNA server down??????

[gray sedge]

seems like it

[fast bear]

PEG will be using the PCI-E GPU (the 2080 Super)

[gray sedge]

cant get back in

[upbeat smelt]

is there a way to kill my character? i got myself stuck on a cliff

[agile mountain]

click esc and use unstuck

[fast bear]

try the unstuck option when you hit esc

[upbeat smelt]

"cant unstuck while falling" 😂

[cyan light]

If you deletd your caravan and can't buy a new one is there any fix for it?

[nocturne wyvern]

cant login

[waxen sand]

So it's been on the correct setting then

[fast bear]

Yep

[nocturne wyvern]

resna cant login in steel bloom?

[waxen sand]

Guessing I should leave that multi monitor setting alone then?

[plush hawk]

They're investigating resna.

[fast bear]

thats just to add another monitor using your iGPU for display

[waxen sand]

Ah

[fast bear]

Everything seems fine @waxen sand - like.. it should be using your 2080 Super.

[waxen sand]

So now my question is. What can I do now to try and get it to use the gpu?

[upbeat smelt]

then I guess im making a new ranger

[twilit juniper]

Resna Server down! STEVEN!

[fast bear]

what Resolution are you using? and if its 1080p, can you use 1440p?

[waxen sand]

1440p already

[fast bear]

and you are using what percentage of CPU / GPU? (using taskmanager to see?)

[twilit juniper]

Hello Resna server down Steven!!!!

[waxen sand]

Current settings in case you want those as well. Been messing around with them trying different things

[crystal beacon]

is the servers struggling ? i keep trying to login post flush dns and release / renew ip , and i try to load game i hear music but it black screens now finally loading but loading bar goes zero to 100 and then restarts (i am on resna )

[fast bear]

have you updated your drivers for the GPU?

[crystal beacon]

yea

[twilit juniper]

Yes iam on Resna server cant log in

[crystal beacon]

ah nevermind that was not directed at me

hahah

[waxen sand]

Yep, all drivers on my computer are current

[fast bear]

under gpu engine in task manager - what gpu id?

[steep patio]

How do I switch from attack to defender in caravan pvp I accidentally hit attacker?

[crystal beacon]

before i updated neti would get off the horse and it would moon walk then i got off while jumping and the horse flew away horizontally

hahah

[forest elk]

Are we allowed to run ashes using a vpn/vps? Im on business trips and id like to play ashes using shadow.tech

[steep patio]

Huh?

lol

[waxen sand]

Asuming you mean the Zero?

[waxen sand]

lol the messages bumped right when I clicked reply and yours was where my mouse was XD

[fast bear]

in this - gpu-id Also - go to Nvidia Control Panel and make sure Open GL 3D GPU is set top 2080ti

[twilit juniper]

iam stcuk on Higman hills i got DC cant conect back

[solemn hemlock]

So is the PvP mandatory? I'm not a fan and tend not to do it but there are others that have no problem going red. They get back to white in about 2 minutes. It's another Eve Online where no place is safe I guess?

[primal mesa]

So, pure curiosity. What is the purpose of this test phase?

[fast bear]

Server Stability and load

[primal mesa]

Load as in?

[waxen sand]

Still confused on gpu-id

[winter oracle]

Number of people online at one time, load on sever

[fast bear]

As in, what happens when there is a load on the server, i.e 7k people all in and around the same area etc

[twilit juniper]

Me and my friend got dc on heightman Hills and now we cant connect back!

[fast bear]

gpu-id is on the screenshot of your TASK MANAGER you send - for ashes of creation.

[dire river]

"PvP in Ashes of Creation exists in both opt-in systems and events as well as open-world PvP with a flagging (and corruption) system."
so if you steal someone's stuff, you immediately get flagged. that opens you up to PvP. don't steal someone's stuff, you significantly lessen your chances for PvP
also, if you travel in a group, you're less likely to get picked on

[upper smelt]

Steveeeen! Can't log in character at Highwaymen Hill. Screen keep re-loading and can hear the game inside in the background but my character never appears. Confirmed with others on discord, they can't log in either.

[solemn hemlock]

Well I'm playing with someone who kills me, goes red, and is white two minutes later so.....

[dire river]

I'm not a huge fan of the PvP either but there are ways to avoid it

the flagging doesn't stay up forever

you'll have to go someplace else if you want to avoid that

[ancient merlin]

YOU TOO? I just did a repair also trying to get it to work

[winter oracle]

As AurachNydSpider said but also there is still a chance of someone killing you in the open world. Without a sense of damage in the world your missing a huge part of being in a active living world.

[dire river]

you have to play this game in a reserved, smart manner. I'm not saying you're stupid. I learned this the hard way. I'm too used to MMOs where I can go wherever I want and not worry. this game......you have to worry

[upper smelt]

Yes, it seems highwaymen hills is bugged on Resna server. Many of us are stuck. We can log in on alt characters tho

[solemn hemlock]

Like I said. Eve Online. Never safe once you leave the dock.

[ancient merlin]

great, I finally get some time again and cant even log in

[dire river]

I never played Eve Online so I wouldn't know

again, you're safer in a pack of ppl

[winter oracle]

It won't be nearly as punishing like that.

[dire river]

if you can find a good group, you should be fine. I personally think they should lessen the amount of material loss on death

it's too punishing imo

[shadow bluff]

Let’s stick to support questions and answers. Let’s take discussions to realm channels or discussions channels.

[upper smelt]

ouch. Yeah. And we were having a blast too with pvp then server had another dc--we stuck.

[dire river]

is that only in the Highwayman area?

[winter oracle]

Don't forget if someone does go Red by killing someone that person becomes a target and if they die while still red, they have a chance of dropping fully crafted items, and in sure at higher corruption they will have higher and higher chance of doing gear, even possible gear they are wearing.

[upper smelt]

Yes. We can log in on alt characters on the same server and all is good

[plush hawk]

Make sure to go to #read-me-first and select a language to access the rest of the discussion channels

[waxen sand]

Do you mean the GPU Engine column for the id? And I believe I have the Open GL 3D GPU set correctly

[dire river]

gotcha. idk if that's the same for Cactus, but I'll keep it in mind

[hazy venture]

hey guys, id rather ask permission than forgiveness... is there any rules against me ltting my dad in another state log in under my login to test out the alpha?

[fast bear]

yeah, your gpu=id should be there - like in mine it says

[queen hound]

Accounts are registered to you personally and may not be sold, traded, gifted or otherwise transferred at any time under any circumstances. Any sale, sharing, or allowing another person to access your account is a violation of the terms agreed upon during account creation.

[upper smelt]

I still have 0 permissions.

[waxen sand]

I'm guessing because it's not using the GPU for the program on my end there would be no GPU value there

[fast bear]

But you have to be. Try rebooting. If that doesnt help you could go into %localappdata% and delete the Saved folder - then relaunch the game (this will delete all settings and keybinds)

[waxen sand]

Just a real quick summary for my current issue just to double check I'm not crazy.
On my system Ashes is currently using the integrated graphics on my CPU which are disabled within the BIOS. Making this scenario very confusing and basically impossible to happen?
And we have also forced it to use the GPU and yet it still will not.
At this moment should I try reinstalling the game?

Well since I have rebooted at least 8 times now XD
I'm going to try the appdata option

[fast bear]

It isnt using the iGPU, there is just something thats maybe not telling the game to run on the GPU

[waxen sand]

[junior shell]

@waxen sand Desktop or Laptop? .. what's your power settings?

[waxen sand]

like power & sleep?

[fast bear]

its a Desktop.

[waxen sand]

Desktop Always on

[junior shell]

Yea, but is it in High Performance? or did you modify the balanced one?

[waxen sand]

High Preformance

And I just learned about Ultimate performance... Should I dare?

[junior shell]

Nah .. should be fine, but if you haven't done an uninstall > install of the game, then do that first

[waxen sand]

K, honestly having trouble finding the saved folder
So reinstall it is

[junior shell]

C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\AOC

[fast bear]

press the Windows key and type %localappdata% and hit enter

[waxen sand]

Ah I had gone to the launcher by mistake

[fast bear]

also through power Options make sure

Link State Power Management is OFF.

[waxen sand]

okay deleting saved folder first to see if it fixes, then trying reinstall if not

[waxen sand]

I don't even know how to get to that one

[fast bear]

Its just through Edit Plan Settings in Power Options, then select Change Advanced power settings

[waxen sand]

Okay save folder deletion does not fix

[junior shell]

Is this an issue only with AoC or other games as well?

[waxen sand]

wait

Only AOC to my knowledge

We had some use 😂

[meager kettle]

Any update on Bone Crusha being non-spawning ?

[fast bear]

leasti t has the gpu engine-id as 0

[waxen sand]

mine was off already 👍

[fast bear]

you dont use HW monitor do you?

[forest minnow]

Surprised nobody said turn the computer on and off again

[waxen sand]

I also just want to take a moment to thank you for having the willpower to help me through debugging this

[fast bear]

if you dont - download it and run it with AoC - then check that GPU usage.

[junior shell]

reinstall the game, or remove Nvidia drivers and install them again .. it's either or ... we've been over all the power settings

[waxen sand]

I do not, have to enable that in the bios right?

[fast bear]

with the GPU 0 - Copy - im sure thats a visual bug - which means its not reporting correct usage. What is performance right?

No @waxen sand its a program

What is performance like in AoC?

[waxen sand]

just double checking, the tab in task manager right?

[fast bear]

I have another righ with 2080 ti + 5700X3D and 1440p and i get like 50 fps

[mild orbit]

are citizen contributions for nodes different from buy orders? if so how do we contribute?

[waxen sand]

I have no idea what my performance numbers actually look like

[fast bear]

Yeah - you can easily uninstall and reinstall but id be looking at another type of program to report GPU usage just to make sure.

[waxen sand]

I have resource monitor that I could use

[fast bear]

Yeah try it please

[junior shell]

You need to go to the plot where the building is being built, and there you can contribute by talking to the npc

You should be able to spot the plot on the map, if you zoom in

[mild orbit]

THX!

[waxen sand]

Okay reinstall complete and it is still using the CPU from what I can tell

[junior shell]

I mean it's also supposed to be using CPU

Both CPU and GPU will have high usage

[oblique relic]

Any way to recover a caravan manually? I had a dc earlier and it gave me the option in the event tab, but nothing popping up now as mines clipped under the ground so possibly still considered here, just underground?

[waxen sand]

The problem is that it isn't using the GPU really at all

[junior shell]

You won't be able to see it on the process.
Mine is still using 82% .. but process shows 0%

[tender wren]

Do you have 3 4090 in a rack in your pc?

[waxen sand]

No, just a 2080 super

[tender wren]

That's pretty neat too. Do the game runs slow or smth?

[fast bear]

mine shows correctly

[waxen sand]

My Desktop Window Manage is what's using the most of my gpu right now

[tender wren]

Mine too. But dunno

[junior shell]

Ohh well 😄 mine works fine withou showing .. not sure why it isn't

[vivid oxide]

only my wood bag is showing at work stations, any idea how to get other mat bags to show again?

[junior shell]

@time can you open dxdiag (click no to the popup), go to the display tab and tell us the version of the driver (right side)

[waxen sand]

32.0.15.6614

[junior shell]

Yea .. well you have all the right stuff .. not sure what's going on 😐 .. how many fps are you getting?

[waxen sand]

I have no idea what my fps is currently, I need something to see that I guess?

[crystal beacon]

no

[fast bear]

@waxen sand Get into game and try using the ingame overlay from Nvidia Geforce Experience to see (it shows metrics etc)

[crystal beacon]

there is a keybind , you can put in game shift alt F

[fast bear]

^

[crystal beacon]

and the fps showup 10% down the screen from upper right corner (greenish numbers)

[junior shell]

fps will show in the right side of the screen, when you use that hotkey .. mine overlaps the map

[primal mesa]

What is hte reward for helping with caravans?

[waxen sand]

Good thing I turned the overlay on when I updated my drivers earlier.
Showing 29FPS, 99% GPU Utilization, 61% CPU Utilization

[kind estuary]

I think thats just a common janky windows bug btw. (generally at least)

[waxen sand]

Weird

[fast bear]

Yeah, so Task Manager is just a visual bug, well now you know. Play with some settings, you can get that up to 40/50 easily and it still looks good

[waxen sand]

I'm going to chalk it up to a good reinstall after forcing the GPU in the nividia panel

[fast bear]

Or that! 😄

[waxen sand]

Thank you guys for this lengthy adventure

[fast bear]

https://tenor.com/view/youre-welcome-gif-2309461136654146376

oh wow, no embed breaks my heart

[stiff vortex]

can you explain this further?

[solemn hemlock]

If a PvP flagged person starts wailing on me and I heal myself, does that flip my flag?

[pliant osprey]

i dont think it does

[crude lagoon]

When are servers going down today? 5 pst?

[sturdy coral]

can you still craft things even if you have diffrent raity on the matrials?

[junior shell]

yes .. I don't know if it averages it out or takes the lowest rarity as a result

[sturdy coral]

okej

yeah

darn..

[west smelt]

given that the game is account based, are vpns allows (for connection issue purposes if that matters) if not thats fine, just wanna know what my options are for when i get the game if i am having issues connecting

[sturdy coral]

yes you can

you just add the materials up to that you need to craft

[junior shell]

I should stop giving advice while being sleep deprivated 😐

@sturdy coral yes you can

[junior shell]

do you know if it averages out in the result, or gives you the lowest rarity as a resulkt?

[sturdy coral]

dont know.. just tryed to add on a light armor.. to see if you could

but i need to make a better fishrod xD

[junior shell]

wow I even just tagged you like it was some other guy giving feedback on our conversation .. damn ..good thing this weekend is soon over

[sturdy coral]

no worry xD

[boreal jay]

anyone trade me a wand for a blue book ?

[dim garnet]

are there any youtube videos beginner guides that are actually helpful? every video is like yeah be level 10 and make armor, dude i cant find granite or daffodils how tf am i supposed to get to level ten lmao

new player experience as a solo is actually horrible so far

[sturdy coral]

daffodils is the yellow flowerbed you see all over the world xD and granite is all over the world to xD looks like stone xD

[remote walrus]

Any fishing vendors currently?

[sturdy coral]

go close and you will see

[dim garnet]

i can find eroded granite all over, however it doesnt count for my quest

[sturdy coral]

if you are in the starting zone then yes.. but just travel abit and you will find 😄

[junior shell]

There's plenty of daffodils and granite in the world .. daffodils are large round yellow circles of flowers

well it's a commision .. like kill commisions they can be all over the map

I believe you can find a lot of granite here .. but those two ressource are by no means rate, and all over the place

[static ravine]

How long did it take y'all to get the account verification email? It's been 10-15 minutes of alternating between inbox, trash, and spam and so far nothing.

Hey guys, just bought alpha access im getting an unrestricted error launching the client

[west smelt]

[junior shell]

Can you post a screenshot? did you just buy it like 5 mins ago?

[wild cypress]

Issue was that friend didnt have edge

[noble yacht]

nvm still not working after getting edge

[ripe cargo]

is the alpha currently running? where can I download it from?

[dreamy hound]

Gotta go to their website and get the launcher, then you gotta download the game using the launcher

[noble yacht]

worked after full restart of pc

[humble cipher]

How long till servers go down

[inland hatch]

does anyone know if this quest is still in game ? or got remove ?

[warped marten]

Hey there ,
Quick question. Do we know if or when the servers could be open during the week ?!

[winter bridge]

It's there, but last I checked, some of the NPCs seem to be bugged and won't talk to you. So you can't progress it past that point.

[dreamy hound]

December 20th

[warped marten]

Is that confirmed?!

[dreamy hound]

We go to 5 days a week on Dec 20th and in May of next year full time me thinks

[woven lily]

its increase the days open from 3 to 5

believe its friday to tuesday

[dreamy hound]

And yes :3

It is confirmed

[warped marten]

Awesome

Thx alot guys ! Rly good newa

[tight hearth]

are quest prettu buggy right now? seem to have issues with a few of them

[winter bridge]

Either bugged, or respawn timers are stupid long. Almost not worth doing.

[vale fern]

any idea what time servers go town tonight? is it in 30?

[tight hearth]

okay ty. ill just focus on grinding then. appreciate it.

[placid vapor]

Hunting Apprentice Cert not in game yet?

where to farm lvl 20+ gears for tank?

[shy shell]

Carphin or Steelbloom are good ❤️ Any lvl 20+ MOB will drop lvl 20 gear typically the mob that has that item on will drop a variant. E.g. A marauder in steelbloom drops heavy or an Enchanted Knight in Carphin.

[leaden sapphire]

The "custom designed freehold manor" within the hero of the people kickstarter account: is that "custom" as in designed by you, or "custom" as in they already have it and if so is there concept art (if anyone knows)

[velvet pulsar]

Anyone know who I can message for in game help on Vyra? My character is perma stuck, continually 'falling' in a stone and can't use unstuck.

[pine torrent]

why cant I talk in alpha two general chat?

[junior shell]

There should be a youtube video on freeholds in the ashesofcreation youtube channel .. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHkMaNWiKg0&ab_channel=AshesofCreation

[unreal thistle]

Need to link your intrepid account first

[stable viper]

I'm talking about the cosmetics in the kickstarter package, I was wondering if it was mentioned anywhere

[junior shell]

Ohh

[stable viper]

It's quite a heavy price for a cosmetic I'm not sure about

[junior shell]

I can't see why it wouldn't happen? .. but it may not bee until late P3 .. or maybe first right before release

@stable viper If you search this Discord (top right corner) for "custom freehold" .. and jump to the conversations you found .. you might find additional information from other players

[stable viper]

Thank you 🙂

how do you report griefing in the game?

[junior shell]

You can't yet .. most you can do is record and post in here to shame the person

[placid vapor]

So why does my Wolf clump along like a Clydesdale instead of padding along like a wolf? 😕

[steel needle]

Will there eventually be the choice to request a duel with another player? also will we be able to inspect other peoples gears?

[pine torrent]

its been a month or so since i did

[proper night]

i had to disconnect mine and reconnect it to get it working

[cyan stratus]

is mob grinding the only way i can really level since the quests arent fully fleshed out?

[abstract dagger]

effectively? yes

you could chop trees for the next 5 years if you really wanted to. they give you about 60-80xp each

[mossy ridge]

wait so, hows the xp deficit thing work for when you are killing mobs in a group?
if its 3 or more difference above or below of the highest or lowest in the party it starts to reduce the XP gain? and that scales up to 9 right?

[valid condor]

The exp change for different levels in the group is that the higher level player gets more as the system assumes they're doing more work. So the move give the same exp, just distributed differently.

[junior shell]

Little did they know .. I'm a slacker

[valid condor]

Yes to the first. For the second, steven said there'd be a buff that could tell you the composition of the enemies gear (3 light, 2 medium ect) but beyond that, I don't know.

[steel needle]

AHH I SEE

oops caps

[west smelt]

given that the game is account based, are vpns allows (for connection issue purposes if that matters) if not thats fine, just wanna know what my options are for when i get the game if i am having issues connecting

[junior shell]

I've not heard anything abot VPN's not being allowed .. however we did have some massive DDoS in the first couple of weeks .. so your results using a VPN may vary

[west smelt]

oh yeah, its just im australian and planning on playing on us servers so if i have issues with connection a vpn might hit different nodes and be a more stable connection is all

Does the Alpha 2 Key Addon not give you access to all waves of the Alpha?

[crystal beacon]

yes ,

also i think , tho i could be wrong all beta and 1month paid time upon launch !

[oblique ermine]

It depends which key you bought. Alpha 2 keys are for specific phases, if you bought a phase 2 key, you won't be able to play phase 1, but you will be able to play any subsequent phase. And yes, you get acess to beta, 1 month sub, and $15 currency

Open your Journal (J), select the quest, and there should be a "Complete Quest/Commission" button.
