questions

[stark mountain]

ty!

[mossy scroll]

Killing a mob too many lvls above and not getting xp is normal?

[open spindle]

I see some players running around with their cosmetic pre-order mounts, how do I do that? Would that eat up my cosmetic for official release?

[deft locust]

What’s the cosmetic mount?

[open spindle]

The dark undead red and black horse.

"Ebon Omen"

[deft locust]

You sure it’s not the ebon horse you buy from vendor for 42g?

Yea ebon omen is a vendor mount

[open spindle]

ah kk thx, pricey

[deft locust]

42g level 21 requirement

[deft locust]

You in a party or solo? And how many levels difference?

[mossy scroll]

Video for reference

[mossy scroll]

Solo 14 lvls

[drowsy scarab]

For someone who knowingly pulls an entire place to wipe another for no gain or reason what so ever is it considered greifing or no?

[deft locust]

Think it’s either 9 or 10 levels is cut off

[open spindle]

prolly is griefing, but how do you know they weren't legit running? or maybe they did a big pull and suddenly heard the doorbell or felt diarhea and had to immediately bail out?

[mossy scroll]

Oh ok I was just not sure if it was a bug or feature haha

[deft locust]

I wouldn’t say so. Yes and no. But it’s a common practice in games and a way of passive conflict

When people are contesting a hunting spot

[drowsy scarab]

If they doing over and over I would say it is knowingly c:
Im not sure if it is considered griefing or not. ^^

I can see the fun in it for him but when there it no gain of it I dont get it

[deft locust]

Are you contesting an area they want?

[open spindle]

he could ninja your corpse after and likely unflag before anyone shows up. bam profit.

[drowsy scarab]

In this scenario I can see him not looting, he do simply not care. Level 25 just running around wiping level 17s.

He just says that this area is closed for my group, we are not allowed. He is alone and does not farm there

[deft locust]

Then yea that’s more on the griefing side

Unless he is protecting a group of players that are hunting

[timber sun]

Can someone tell me what the respawn timers of Tumok and Firebrand are?

[azure kestrel]

when do the servers close ?

[slender bough]

Will the Slate Weapon Mold recipe at the apprentice stoneworks be fixed during the downtime? 🙂

(despite having all required ingredients, the begin button remains disabled and the tooltip says cannot start due to missing ingredients)

[tame arch]

@digital sonnet What happens if we are doing caravan when servers go down?

[mighty raven]

Do you have the coin fee?

[glossy stream]

Add roles ?

[slender bough]

Definitely - although I need to add more detail to my question. The sub recipe this happens with is Slate Mortar. In fact, the same issue exists with Basalt Mortar. The Granite Mortar recipe works fine. Aside from the obvious, the only difference between them is that the granite variant requires an additional ingredient: daffodil thread. No threads are required by the other two.... or.... are they (just not displayed)?

[unreal thistle]

I think they do this so for example, a bunch of lvl 25’s can’t carry a low level like a lvl 5 and power level them up. After a certain level above you won’t get XP. Just my guess, not referencing anything

[mossy scroll]

I would understand for it being a team but for the solo one it feels kinda weird

[unreal thistle]

I agree, playing solo, I figure if you can kill a mob regardless of level, you should get the XP.

[upbeat elk]

Contact customer support (!cs)

[cosmic holly]

I have never died so many times like I have on this game lol

[meager falcon]

why is server downtime always to EU primetime 😄

[covert spruce]

are all the named mobs bugged? I havent seen Quiet Timmy (or whatever) or Rickard the Purifier ever

[cosmic holly]

Mobs are way overpowered compared to the classes

[nova wraith]

for now it makes sense, later i presume there will be dedicated teams to manage these outside of peak player hours

[karmic prism]

Rickard definitely spawns. I’ve ran into him three times

[low silo]

bosses seem to require a number of players in the area to spawn

[karmic prism]

He’s east ish on a hill from the center of that quest zone circle

[low silo]

but im guessing

[covert spruce]

cool thanks guys. yeah i looked up his location on the codex and sat there for like 10 mins

but will try again when servers come back 🫡

[karmic prism]

Quests that are focused on killing named mobs that aren’t in dungeon areas I just don’t bother with. Or collection quests that ask for specific items. Most of em all are bugged or have weird loot tables.

[humble plaza]

are servers down currently?

[humble plaza]

thanks

[covert spruce]

so basically it's just a mob grind for now to get to 25?

[devout gorge]

is there anyone who knows?

[desert ivy]

Quests/commissions are bad xp so not worth doing to level, so yes mob grinding is the best way

[karmic prism]

Seems to be the best way. Too many quest bugs. Questing isn’t the focus of this playtest though so whatever

[spring oar]

Is it normal to be kicked out of an update when the servers go down for maintenance? Kind of annoying since it was nearly finished lmao

[lethal mantle]

I feel like it makes sense. They're probably pushing a new update you're going to have to download

[karmic prism]

They probably pulled that build while you were DLing it and reset connections

[flint jay]

they did warn 15 mins ago

[lethal mantle]

hopefully that doesn't cause any issues for you when you attempt to download the next one :S

[spring oar]

https://tenor.com/view/snoop-dogg-real-the-struggle-gif-21322527

[spring oar]

hope not lmao, should be fine 🤞

[eager owl]

I got the same

[vernal lichen]

are there any good way to lvl up jeweler? it took me way too much resources so far and I get like lvl4 at the moment

[severe badge]

hey guys does anyone dropped a single piece of bloodrunner set yet?

[digital haven]

Will ashes have instanced BGs for quick play PvP? Or just world pvp/castle sieges?
(Don't get me wrong, wpvp is my fav pvp, just curious)

[lethal mantle]

I don't think there's going to be instanced pvp. I'm pretty sure it's all going to be in the open world

[buoyant coral]

:-? got this... idk

[glacial wing]

Servers down right now, eh?

[eager owl]

For 2 hours yes

Server down for at least 2 hours.

[severe badge]

its this one but i tried to drop some few hours but not even a recipe

[craggy turret]

max guild size?

[manic light]

\

[remote stump]

Guys??? Has it been two hours yet?

[lethal mantle]

almost

[pure kelp]

can anyone link that image that shows what current test servers are for what "type" of player? (ie. Resna is for large guild PvPers).

[finite river]

"Up to 2 hours" is completely different from "At least 2 hours".

[upbeat elk]

This is the only one I've seen

[final sinew]

what is castus for?

also i dont believe resna is the hardcore pvp server, that server feels dead compared to all the others

[pure kelp]

cactus is new for Alpha 2... pretty sure it a mix like Vyra

[subtle shore]

anyone know what would be my ping from eu on a na server ?

[finite river]

maybe not a high volume of players interrested in full on PVP? Also, don't underestimate the amount of PvPers that love beating on streamer communities...

[frail vapor]

Do you think that at Christmas there will be gifts in game?

[finite river]

What do you mean? AoC is the gift that keeps on giving! 😄

[dusk mica]

Does anyone know how respecing will work Wave II?

[faint plume]

What are the rules about creating content for this game? I feel like we are looking at bitcoin when it was $3, and there is some cool stuff we as a community can capitalize (Example: creating a youtube channel with quest guides). I would love to know where I can read about the terms and service. @idle siren (sorry to ping I would like to hear your thoughts on this).

[digital haven]

Have the devs said anything about a possible graphics overhaul before release? I feel the graphics are already very out of date to today's standards and it's going to be several years before release as well, creating an even larger gap. I'd hate to see the game suffer for looking like a 2014 game by 2028 ):

[upbeat elk]

No NDA on the alpha, go crazy. https://ashesofcreation.com/news/guide-to-alpha-two

They'll be some NDA stuff when Beta rolls around, but that will be a while and I'm sure more concrete rules will be out by then. https://ashesofcreation.com/alpha-two

[limber iris]

Dude, it's an alpha. Of course the graphics will get better 🙂

[upbeat elk]

They just redid the lighting last week.

[digital haven]

That's mot always the case for all games in alpha
Hence why I asked if the devs made any comments about an overhaul before release

[mystic narwhal]

Are servers down ? News post keeps extending the expected downtime

[dusk spade]

Any tips to get into the other channels, I followed the #read-me-first instructions, and the website shows my discord linked, but I still "don't have permission" to post in the other channels.

[frail vapor]

its true they open servers in december-january during 2 weeks 7/7 ???

[sleek helm]

They upgraded to unreal engine 5 exactly for this reason they have the possibility to make it look good its just not the priority right now

[faint plume]

Check the news, 2 hours from 9

[buoyant vale]

Just be glad we don't have the wet noodle trees falling down like they showed in one of the original videos

[mystic narwhal]

Yeah the times keep updating as if they are not down

[weary needle]

Do we have any information on what the accessibility options are going to look like or is that not something that's been discussed yet? Things like Text To Speech, Font Sizes, etc?

[crystal beacon]

You might have to use incognito mode, or a diff browser, try unlinking and relinking again.

[faint plume]

yeah and it looks awesome

[dusk mica]

You're trippin if you think it looks like a 2014 game haha. You can tell thats its already more visually advanced compared to say Archeage that was a UE4 engine MMO. I don't what you're truly trying to expect though with a graphics overhaul. I mean the washed out look will be fixed but I'm not sure what you're exactly looking for.

[dusk spade]

I believe Steven said they are working on text size, not sure on the rest

[upbeat elk]

Try linking your discord again, sometimes it doesn't link the right account. Incognito helps.

[hollow spindle]

hey, anyone knows why i cant write in the alpha two channels?

[buoyant vale]

Any update on controller support for lazy gaming?

[upbeat elk]

Link your discord account https://ashesofcreation.com/account/connections

[digital haven]

Id like it to at least be on the same level as New World by the time the game releases

[faint plume]

I think it looks awesome! it can feel a bit janky sometimes but overall hell yeah

[hollow spindle]

Thanks!

[limber iris]

Well, you can ask the dev's but any Alpha I've been in... the graphics are always better in beta or full-release.

[dusk spade]

Some people will never be satisfied. They also need to realize that MMORPGs , by nature, will never have the best graphics. The game looks BEAUTIFUL, that said.

[final sinew]

i need to know if there will be a christmas event where we go to a giant christmas tree and open up presents beneath said tree this is important to me right now

[faint plume]

THis is the modern days of the internet. People just hate on everything that is announced. The only games that are not hated on are ones that come by suprise, like helldivers

[vagrant pewter]

Nah my massive seemless mmo world needs to have elden ring comparative graphics or I riot /s

[dusk spade]

Worked to disconnect and reconnect Thanks! @crystal beacon thanks too for the same suggestion 🙂

[dusk spade]

You might get a sandal tree... LOL

[buoyant vale]

Just hopefully not like new world with giant turkey that had laser beams and fire breath that laid bomb eggs

[noble nova]

are the server down?

[dusk mica]

I mean yea, the MMO here is PVX and more things are supposed to be interactable and will look a little funky cause the world is supposed to be at our disposal. New World was more of a painting type world environment to make it feel "immersive" visually, but if things are going to be destroyed or interacted with on a constant basis especially with node wars and stuff, I can't see it reach that potential you're looking for. @digital haven

[dusk spade]

Check the news channel, yes. maintenance for 2 hours

[buoyant vale]

For another hour or less

[noble nova]

got ya

[pliant osprey]

anyone know if they fixed the issue of items not dropping for people lower than 4 levels from the enemy?

[spice burrow]

are you not allowed to swap file locations and stuff with the laucher when the servers are down? cause my laucher keeps saying i dont even have acces to the current test phase even tho i was playing the last few days

[twin holly]

still bugged afaik

[pliant osprey]

really... thats a shame, lvl 20s cant farm for the carphin items then?

[twin holly]

itll still drop sometimes but at a very reduced rate compared to when you are in the right lvl range

[pliant osprey]

I swear i read patch note saying they fixed it but i cant find it anymore....

[kind estuary]

I think they had a patch for that recently?

[pliant osprey]

^ this

[untold silo]

Clear up some farming questions.

Do blue colored enemies not drop anything because you are too strong?

If I wanted droppings fast what would my best method be to farm?

[pliant osprey]

i cant find it though.

[pure kelp]

I think everyone is getting that due to servers being completely down

[spice burrow]

ah i see thank you

[steep jacinth]

Rn the visuals look weak. Nothing like when they showed it on the livestreams and I have a 4090.

[pliant osprey]

@kind estuary do you know wher that was patched?

@kind estuary i just wanna find it for my sanity lol

[steep jacinth]

They must have the graphics turned way down

[kind estuary]

last weekend or the one before? not sure. Might have been in PTR or something

[untold silo]

Probably. At the end of the day this is a playtest. not early access.

[vital helm]

Are ashes characters saved to a cloud somewhere? What i mean is if I reinstall AoC to move it to an SSD instead of an HDD will i lose my character?

[primal trail]

No you won't lose characters.

[twin holly]

nothing character based is saved client side its all tied to the servers data , so unless intrepid wipe you will keep stuff

[gentle turtle]

Any way to disable camera shake? It is really annoying.

[buoyant vale]

Motion blur in video settings?

[vital helm]

Cool, thank you

[pliant osprey]

can anyone lead me to the patch notes even if they're the PTR about the items dropping at any level? I am on a struggle bus even finding it... <@&519722995778977812> sorry i this is spam... I dont want to grief other players by being in their group at lvl 20.

[kind estuary]

You'll grief the fuck out of their xp lol, just drops were the unintended part

[pliant osprey]

If someone cares about XP at lvl 20+ i dont care tbh

20-25 mean nothin atm

[broken island]

Emberspring protection. Does anyone know if this is specific to respawning, or you can get it by just standing there? Might need to test being in PvP and running to an Emberspring to escape.

[pliant osprey]

yes i understood that part @kind estuary ... XP was the intended part, but the items are the point Im trying to find

Ive went on the reddit page looking through all PTR patch notes and cant find it.

[pallid tapir]

Running a 9900k and a 2080s at 3440x1440, really bad performance even on medium in some areas so I'm looking to upgrade. Should a 4080/9800x3d be able to run smoothly in all areas on high? I know optimization happens later in dev process.

[kind estuary]

I thought it was a 1min respawn non-pvp thing, but havent tried

[broken island]

Well I got respawn PvP protection already yesterday.

[kind estuary]

4k in an alpha might be rough regardless. Is your cpu bottlenecking? If just gpu then you might want to just try a gpu upgrade before you go crazy with cpu and maybe mobo.

Theres a lot of areas in the game where performance is just horrendous (like looking across the world from a mountain peak), or near nodes.

[broken island]

Maybe it's a fix? Guess I'll have to see.

[pseudo night]

<@&519722995778977812> can we get a spanish / latinamerican community discussion please? ❤️

[fluid mesa]

can i play?

[broken island]

Not untile Beta 2. Beta 1 is in May

[kind estuary]

wave 1 is the 120 version

and its usually weekends only

[fluid mesa]

how is it running?

[pseudo night]

thats alpha 3 i guess, not beta date yet

[unreal thistle]

Alpha 2 Phase3 is in May, no dates for Beta yet

[pseudo night]

the game is awesome ❤️

[broken island]

Ah, my bad.

[fluid mesa]

better than pax Dei?

[pallid tapir]

Yes.

[pseudo night]

its still an alpha, but yes.

[unreal thistle]

leaps and bounds better than pax dei in its current state

[fluid mesa]

better than GW2?

[broken island]

That's debateable, but I would say 100% yes.

[unreal thistle]

i never played Guild Wars 2

[pseudo night]

better than gw3: putin's revenge.

[fluid mesa]

lol

[desert ivy]

Beta is probably 3+ years away so

[fluid mesa]

better than atari adventure?

[desert ivy]

Channel isn't for opinion discussions, only factual questions about the game

[fluid mesa]

okay....

[pseudo night]

anyone knows if the game is factually better than... ***

[quiet zenith]

Why was frame generation removed with that update?

[fluid mesa]

i guess i will have to wait till may

[quiet zenith]

frame generation really smoothed out my fps

[worn wagon]

To reiterate, the $75 Wayfarer pack grants you access to Beta 2. There's no announced starting date for this phase.
Alpha 2 phase 3 will start in May 2025 but you'll need one of the three "Wave Bundles" currently available in the shop to participate in that phase

[fluid mesa]

...

[rain sierra]

when cooking with higher quality ingredients and selecting the higher quality food is it supposed to be a chance to get higher quality food or is quality food not a thing or is this a bug

[spring oar]

anyone else's launcher making their pc have a complete meltdown? got kicked out of an update when the servers went down and now they're back up, interacting with the launcher is making my pc run extremely slowly and the download freezes a few seconds after opening. trying to repair hasn't worked. am I going to have to reinstall the entire game?

[pliant osprey]

@kind estuary i cant find it in any of the patch notes, but its not in the list of known issues, so im going to go out on a limb and say its not a bug anymore ❤️

[covert spruce]

was having the same issue, had to force quit the launcher through task manager. now it works fine again

[wintry latch]

yes. the launcher freezes everything

[spring oar]

yeah whenever I do that it just puts me back in the same spot I was at, clicking on repair does nothing and neither does reinstall. I'm gonna try and delete everything and install the game again because nothing on the launcher actually works for me

[thorn sand]

just got booted from the game anyone else have this error code 538

[spring oar]

even when I close the launcher my PC runs at a snails pace until I restart my PC

[mossy wadi]

yes i do as well

[thorn sand]

seems to work again

[mossy wadi]

yes it does for me as well

[wintry latch]

Any idea why I can't repair my green sword?

[latent heath]

is there a way to upgrade a wayfarer pack I bought back in 2018 to get alpha access?

[pliant osprey]

@wintry latch equip it and click the repair all button

see if that works

[hexed lava]

how do i link my account to discord to give me access to the alpha channels?

[wintry latch]

It's greyed out for some reason, and the only item equipped is my sword

[pliant osprey]

re-log? put it in storage, logout, login, try again

[humble plaza]

is it back up early?

[pliant osprey]

just throwing ideeas

[pliant osprey]

always check alpha-two-news, tehy'll have the server info up

and yes its up atm

[atomic sierra]

Ideally needs to be installed on a gen4 ssd.

[tacit rose]

Says unable to join... Servers still down, or is there a fix, or...?

[wintry latch]

what worked for me was ahaving a friend give it

the repair that is

so I traded with them and gave them the sword and they repaired it

(of course, do this with someone you trust)

[astral vine]

can any1 elaborate on what a "guild fully functional" means? is there a full list of other systems/menus/storage?/functionality that will be available to us?

[exotic parcel]

That's been standard for me since day 1. Especially with Discord. I just leave voice chat until it finishes.

[spring oar]

Is this gonna break my install while I'm downloading an update like last time?

hope not I just want to get in 😩😩

[lapis pebble]

Been getting this for the last two days. Is this an issue on my end?

[shy dawn]

did you do any gold duping?

[lapis pebble]

lol no Im low level and I can get on every few hours. This error comes and goes

[crystal beacon]

Do the realms work like in WoW? Where a player on realm A can communicate with someone on realm B, for example

[vague shard]

no

[frozen loom]

Is ganking while in a window while trying to buy something. Because a war was decalered? Going to be allowed? I would like to know before ever trying to figure out any crafting. In a node if no one is ever safe. I will play something else. Would like to know definitively. No matter what a gave my 120. it was worth it. But not a crafting game if thats going to happen. REALLY. not going to happen.

[vernal lichen]

how mats spawn work? If I gather zink, will it respawn somewhere near?

[frozen loom]

Not garanteed same spot

[astral vine]

Assman, they have shared spawns could be tin next

[spring oar]

not sure. tbh pvp inside of towns is kind of dumb unless you was flagged before entering. getting ganked while transporting your goods to a crafting station sounds kinda bad

[frozen loom]

I found copper next to 2 horses and the horses love it there. Never saw copper again. but a ruby showed up

[vernal lichen]

so technically it can be iron that no one can gather?

[frozen loom]

Again pretty random

might have to clear to get them to spawwn

You need the promotion and the tool to harvest

[vernal lichen]

I think that it may lead to the deadend like iron everywhere and some useless thing like basalt

[frozen loom]

Doesnt matter the gank you trying to craft it

crafters are doing stacks

hugh loss if killing in towns allowed

And it is

[wraith venture]

Weird question for the dev team: Do you guys pay any attention to the discord reactions on your announcements? I rather enjoy the mini game of being fast enough to place my preferred emote (🦆) before space runs out. Quack!

[mossy wadi]

anyone else got his citizenship taken and lost the storage place? i just payed my taxes on saturday so it can't be that i got taken bcs of that.

[untold silo]

they said all realms have been restarted but i never got kicked off?

[gusty crest]

any known issues for authentication problems?

[manic scaffold]

Was this garden always here in lionhold ? I didn't know i could find so many flax at the same place in a town

[raw scaffold]

ever since servers restarted all i get is this, for over 30 minutes now

[wary smelt]

I assume I am not the only one, but has anyone encountered an issue where their mouse keeps disappearing, and teleporting to the center of the screen? It hasnt happened yet, but after the update it started happening and it is causing issues when trying to select my server. Repairing didnt help. Any information would be helpful! Thank you!

[kind estuary]

Could try closing all other programs and swapping it to fullscreen or fullscreen windowed

[wary smelt]

that is actually what I am trying to do as we speak lol, but the mouse keeps moving to the center of the screen

[kind estuary]

alt+enter will make it windowed if its fullscreen

[wary smelt]

ah. fair I didnt think of that haha

[opaque nova]

how yall get help on this damn EA account ,ive tried all kinds of AI tek help support shit and just going around in a circle and not getting anywhere?

[noble nova]

The game freezes completly a few seconds after login anyone has that problem?

[kind estuary]

on an ssd or hdd?

[noble nova]

after this patch everything worked fine before

[spring oar]

is this an emberspring lmao? my quest says to attune to it but i get no option

[crystal beacon]

yes, you interact with it.

[kind estuary]

Whats your issue?

[vital owl]

Any linux gamers able to login after the most recent patch? Buddy of mine is having issues and there are no other posts about it.

[crystal beacon]

soemtimes you have to move around to get the option to interact

[spring oar]

still not getting the option, will submit a bug report. hope this isnt the quest for my mount hahhaa

[opaque nova]

i tried to get into my account but couldn't remmber username,password,but now it says blocked after multiple consecutive attempts.

[agile mountain]

what happens if i put stuff in storage when im not a citizen of that node? Will it disappear?

[opaque nova]

and the support stuff isBS

[oblique vigil]

Friend had this issue, restarting their PC fixed it for them.

[patent hearth]

I can't seem to access my characters list, got this error, anyone got this issue too ?

[wary smelt]

I just did that and it didnt 🥲 I am about to test another mouse.

[crystal beacon]

try logging out and back in. Where is that? in Lionhold?

[crystal beacon]

Does your mouse have software?

[signal python]

are any rangers able to proc silence off of their thundering shot when a target is dazed?

[kind estuary]

Not sure if the support ticket doesn't help ya. If it gets unblocked after a while you could try recovering with your email instead of your username. Unless you forgot the email.

[spring oar]

i tried that didnt work:( yeah im at ruins of aela

[opaque nova]

i used my email,,lol

[kind estuary]

That shouldnt be part of the horse quest anyway, horse quest starts at spawn and tells you to go east.

[opaque nova]

and the number i found just hangs up on me

[crystal beacon]

its actually a quest. What is the status of your quest

[spring oar]

im at the part where it tells me to attune

[wary smelt]

yup updated it and firmware was good. Once I plugged in another mouse suddenly worked fine and now my lamzu works fine now. No idea lol

[crystal beacon]

drop the quest and restart it? have you tried that

[opaque nova]

atless your problem is fixed,lol

[kind estuary]

I wasnt aware they had a number, they have tickets though.
https://support.ashesofcreation.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[crystal beacon]

oh lol. Mouses are so crazy, glad that worked.

[opaque nova]

i found one but it was any help tho

[twin holly]

this is the one you attune to north of lionshold

[opaque nova]

i did the request thing and got nothing

[crystal beacon]

OHH thats right wakky for the win. That is confusing

[crystal beacon]

So your account is locked bc too many password attempts.

Did it say anything about timing for it to reset?

Did you put in a ticket via their website?

NOt much anyone in here can do. Your best bet is via email (which can be verified by Intrepid)

YOu will have to probably wait some time before the lock on your account clears.

[opaque nova]

yes,and it still said the samething

[woven breach]

No it’s been bugged since A2 launch

[crystal beacon]

Yes what?

What does it say.

[opaque nova]

ok,ty yall,its just looking like this game isn't for me

[signal python]

TY!

[opaque nova]

yes it had a time thing and when that time was over it still did the samething

[crystal beacon]

What did it do exactly?

Sounds like all you need is a password reset, after the timer is done/

[signal python]

authenticator

[opaque nova]

saying it was blocked becuase of me trying so meny times i guess.

rest password 3 times

then it said it was blocked

[woven breach]

I’ve reported it multiple times and sent a video from my stream to the devs so they are well aware of it

[upbeat elk]

You'll have to contact CS.

[opaque nova]

CS?

[woven breach]

Hopefully it gets fixed asap. It’s one thing making fights against clerics difficult if you doesn’t finish them off quickly with your initial snipe crit/barrage

[upbeat elk]

!cs

[potent thunder]

Include more keywords after this command to search for answers to some of our FAQ (ex. !cs password reset), or open a Customer Support ticket directly here if you are having account or technical issues: https://support.ashesofcreation.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[crystal beacon]

@opaque nova I agree with Ex. You should put in a ticket here if you have not done already. You are probably stuck waiting for a while.

https://support.ashesofcreation.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[signal python]

[violet steeple]

is there not a way to target self when casting a spell without losing your target when healing?

[crystal beacon]

OHH that does suck : (

[opaque nova]

im old and not very good at this stuff,lol

[heady basin]

defensive target i think you can enable

[kind estuary]

They have a lot of tickets atm I believe, so might be a day or two more

[raven mantle]

is there a way to msg a mod or a dev regarding a bug? kinda need to do it directly

[crystal beacon]

Its okay to be old and not good at this stuff.

Gaming is for everyone, all ages. I am sure it will get resolved and we willsee you in game soon!

[opaque nova]

i hope so,game looks good

[kind estuary]

Like a major dupe bug? uhhhh
Could @ the community manager or vaknar if it's some extremely severe issue, if not the bug report ingame is good enough.

[crystal beacon]

in game /bug report is the fastest way. YOu can include screenshots

[raven mantle]

where do i pick up the quest to get a horse?

[opaque nova]

later all,going to go play Ark.

[kind estuary]

Theres a few yt videos its an npc with a book icon above its head at spawn that tells you to go to the nearby camp.
If you search:
'how to get your first mount ashes of creation' or 'how to get your horse ashes of creation' on youtube.

[raven mantle]

i sent him a msg, thanks

I think theres a recovery system of some sort if you dcd or whatever

[tidal vector]

isnt that just for Launched caravans... all my caravans are now gone even the onces that were just parked in halcion

[sweet jungle]

guys , how to craft forsaken weapons?

[kind estuary]

Think you need the recipes that mobs drop

[foggy pewter]

First time player...I'm getting nauseous feeling when moving; is there a workaround for this? Setting/ini change? Thanks

[spring oar]

If i store glint in lionhold will i be able to access it anywhere in the world or will i have to come back here?

[cosmic plume]

Anyone know how to fix Caravan Bug where it only lets you move forward/backward after summon

[azure widget]

Is there a reason i cant update the launcher. Already running admin

[subtle shore]

anyone know how to get rid of this box to left of my screen ?

[azure widget]

all fixed. Apparently i had 3 instances of the launcher open. Force closed all and its working now.

[keen harbor]

Highly recommend turning off motion blur and if you don’t have DLSS manually enabling 100% aspect ratio, it’ll make your game way sharper overall.

There’s a guide on Reddit :

https://www.reddit.com/r/AshesofCreation/s/JT1U8o8lh6

[foggy pewter]

Thanks, I'll take a look. My fall back plan is to play on my 1080p monitor.

[rain ice]

Is there a way to ignore/block someone in global chat. I'm so sick of seeing messages of some of these people

[crystal beacon]

Yes. You can type /ignore name of person. (I think it’s ignore)

[untold silo]

ping me when you answer. when does flax respawn? how long does it take?

[balmy portal]

anyone else just get booted and getting failed to get character list again?

[quaint rose]

is there a depot somewhere or are some of these commissions broken?

[coarse schooner]

Why I cannot open my storage in any node?

I press end and dialog closes.

[spring oar]

can i store items/materials in a node that im not a citizen of?

[eager owl]

Any admin?

Weird and very scary bug happened, please reach out. Thanks.

[wide delta]

Is this game a pvp dumpster fire?

[valid condor]

This is a quest line you might have skipped

It'd be in lionhold

[coarse schooner]

thx! ill try to find out

[valid condor]

Yes. You can see your storage at other nodes, but can only access the storage of the node you're in.

[eager owl]

How do I add Alpha two to my profile?

[valid condor]

Pvp can be big in the future, most of those systems just aren't up right now and it's making current pvp a bit iffy

[valid condor]

Connect discord with your intrepid account after you purchase your pass.

[eager owl]

tyty

[valid condor]

Flax seems to be somewhat rare, but you can also grow it at a farming station with droppings

[untold silo]

I found a decent sum. I guess i should ask. Whats a decent sum?

[valid condor]

As much as you need i guess? 😅 I don't really know our seen any numbers for the spawn time of resource nodes.

[hallow shore]

Is there anyway to have my name changed?

[kind estuary]

you can report it with /bug ingame

[wide delta]

pvp in this game is more than iffy; is it hot garbage though?

[eager owl]

Is monsters concidered as NPC?

[spring oar]

are there any mobs near winstead to kill as a level 5? just rode over here to check it out but everything seems 9+

[worn wagon]

Your Discord name? Feel free to DM me. It's not possible to change your ingame character name

[kind estuary]

Should be yeah

[hollow lake]

Are there any black zones or good areas for PvP?

[kind estuary]

theres two pvp zones on current map, think on one server theres a mega guild that operates out of it

[hollow lake]

Thank you !

[valid condor]

The low level mobs are around the center of the map, the outer parts are varied for 10-25

If you go up on the walls of lionhold, above the goblin courtyard, there are level 4-8 mobs

[valid condor]

You can use this map to find mobs in your range https://ashescodex.com/map

[untold silo]

does no one know the eta on flax after it's cut to spawn.

[kind estuary]

I mean if it spawns it probably wont be flax in that spot, it'll be a random plant. idk what the respawn timers are on node spots though

[glass lotus]

are droprates decreased if i kill mobs that are way under my lvl? it feels like it at least

[worn wagon]

They are, yes

[spring oar]

do I need my own plot to farm in a node? I need some cotton to craft a Cape as I've got not item drops yet

[glass lotus]

may i ask, at what point does it start do decrease, like if im 3 lvls above them?

[worn wagon]

Drop rate starts to decrease if you're more than 3 levels apart from the mob

[pliant osprey]

@worn wagon where is that info

[sweet goblet]

can you use stolen glint for caravans?

[pliant osprey]

I cant find that information anywhere

[sterile mist]

"The Sweat of Your Brow" not giving mount after completion O.o, bug?

[pliant osprey]

I read it was a bug that items dont drop if you're more than 3 levels apart.

[kind estuary]

you talked to the stable guy too?

[pliant osprey]

its not upon quest completion, you get it DURING the quest talkking to the stable guy

[trail bluff]

anyone completed the "Justice and Redemption" quest? where you have to investigate the ambush site near the Gemspring?

[sterile mist]

hmmm ok. i gotta find the stable guy quest then. cause "TSoYB" is completed.

[pliant osprey]

no

[valid condor]

You can get crops from the farming station found in the crafting square of a node

[pliant osprey]

you should be able to walk up to him and say "ive lost my mount"

@sterile mist

[sterile mist]

but he gives me nada... just i can buy one'

[pliant osprey]

hm

i remember talking to an NPC who i can say ive lost mine to

you check your inventory for sure?

in the items section not materials

[sterile mist]

i told him I lost mine and that was his response

[kind estuary]

you dont have any related quests? weird you should get snowdrop powder and have a quest to deliver

[pliant osprey]

oh.

[sterile mist]

snowdrop powder is the quest. which is complete. not in my log anymore

[worn wagon]

That was a bug, yes. When you're more than 3 levels apart, there's a decrease in drop chance, not a complete falloff. #questions message

[craggy turret]

Best place to get level 10 mage armor?

[sterile mist]

I may just remake this ranger and try again. I made two characters over the weekend, no issue. This one for some reason can't get the mount.

[pliant osprey]

Ook! so its 3 levels from the ENEMY you fight, not from the highest level party member? but the lowest level party member in comparison to the enemy?

is how im reading that

[versed sparrow]

hey guys which pack to i gotta purchase to play now

[graceful cape]

My game keeps freezing up whenever i first get into it. Anyone know a solution?

[queen hound]

$120
Alpha Two First Wave Bundle

[kind estuary]

On an ssd I assume? Someone else had that issue earlier not sure if they fixed it.

[versed sparrow]

when did it begin? and i couldnt find a defined en date just the start of alpha wave 3 in dec

[kind estuary]

its weekends only and active now (though this week is week long)

[pliant osprey]

It began on Nov 8

for everyone

but oct 25 i believe was start date

if you want to join now, pay for 120, if you dont mind waiting till Dec 20, pay 110

[kind estuary]

^ wipes on dec20 too

[spice ibex]

my game is just sayning connecting

[kind estuary]

try restarting launcher/game if its stuck

[versed sparrow]

see i thought it was 5 days a week

or is this wrong

[kind estuary]

thats dec20 onward (phase 2)

[spice ibex]

@kind estuary have, several times

[versed sparrow]

i see ok

[kind estuary]

its up all week this week though

[kind estuary]

I know people had issues with firewall or antivirus but I'm not 100% sure they were the exact same issue.

[sonic loom]

how do i get permission to speak in the bugs channel

[kind estuary]

dont think your ashes acc is linked #read-me-first

[sonic loom]

I did everything it asked

[kind estuary]

Think you're missing the alpha2 role, might take a few mins for it to refresh. Some people said theyve restarted discord to fix it

[quick pasture]

Hi Guys. How can i buy Stuff from the Citizen Reputation Vendor? i have no clue what that kind of currency. Where can i get it?

[kind estuary]

so theres a requistion guy by the storage

[trail bluff]

it looks like the currency you get by fulfilling buy orders

[kind estuary]

or you go to the town hall board and do comissions

[quick pasture]

Ah, thank you, i´ll check it out right now

[high vault]

hey guys i tried to reinstall and now its telling me i dont have anti-cheat installed.

how do i get the anticheat software reinstalled

[kind estuary]

its possible you just need to restart your pc for the service to run. Unless it actually didnt install again, forget if the launcher installer does that or the game installation.

You could try running the launcher installer and make sure easy anticheat is checked if its one of the prerequisites.

[coarse pewter]

How do you fix this

[upbeat elk]

#questions message

[drifting snow]

Am I supposed to have a skill tree for "One-Handed Sword (Piercing)" or is it only Slashing right now?

Because when I get EXP, it's for Piercing.

[scenic void]

Anyone know how AoC is going to handle training mobs to other people ?

[quick pasture]

Can i get fish in any Water or is there a specific Thing i have to look for?

[drifting snow]

It is a little picky on where you cast, but it is most bodies of water.

Try to get at least knee/waist deep if you can. It will usually let you cast then.

[quick pasture]

Okay. but there arent specific spots in the water like it is in WoW?

[drifting snow]

Nah

[acoustic crown]

what do I need to do to be able to speak in the alpha-two-general channel?

[quick pasture]

thanks grimm

[kind estuary]

Just to add, shallow water generally doesnt work oh grim already said that zz

[drifting snow]

All good lol

But yeah, most times if you can see the bottom of the body of water, you can't fish in it.

[upbeat elk]

Link your discord on the site https://ashesofcreation.com/account/connections

(And an alpha 2 key)

[versed delta]

How does one start a guild?

[drifting snow]

You have to purchase a guild seal from any node then craft it at a scribe bench

[high vault]

i restarted and still getting the issue

[kind estuary]

rip if you use the launcher installer does it have anticheat as an install option?

[high vault]

i'm going to just delete everything ashes off my computer and start over from a fresh download off the website

[untold silo]

does anyone know when plants respawn after harvest?

[misty berry]

Just wondering
Besides the level and health upgrade What else is the difference between a say [Rare] Mount vs a [Common] Mount? If anyone knows 🙏🏼

[pine gyro]

anyone know what mobs drop the forsaken blade emblems?

[upbeat elk]

Highwaymen Hills mobs

[pine gyro]

Thanks; pretty sure I got one from elsewhere but can't remember where...

[kind estuary]

you might be able to find them on the ashes codex db (google ashes codex)

[rough sonnet]

Is there any plans in the works for either a Linux port, or a steam version? (where I could then use Proton) if either of those happen I'll totally get yhe game it looks really cool from the bits I've seen

[pine gyro]

doesn't say where drop, just recipes used in 😦

[upbeat elk]

Click the Dropped in POI

[upbeat elk]

No idea, but here's the wiki https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Mounts

[kind estuary]

yeah dropped tab has a bunch

[pine gyro]

I'm pretty sure something else drops them because I got one not in HH killing something solo at level 13

and I never got a single one there after 3 hours...

[unborn wigeon]

Anyone else's character randomly go bald?

[upbeat elk]

It's a piece of equipment you have. /bug it

[tame idol]

where do you get the dinosaur mpount

[unborn wigeon]

which one?

[upbeat elk]

Dunno, it could be an armor piece or a weapon

[unborn wigeon]

looks like it's my light armor chest piece

both of them lol

or...

it's everything...that's so weird

[kind estuary]

If I zoom in, everythings bad. If I stay zoomed out, sometimes a removing a piece of gear removes flashing/janky visual glitches. Though this might be related to running things on low as well.

[unborn wigeon]

even if I zoom out, my character's still bald, unless I remove 1 piece of armor (could be anything)

[kind estuary]

lol dunno then

[unborn wigeon]

I'll just remove my sword for now since I don't really use it...I'm no longer bald now. However, if I remove, say, my shoes, I'm back to being bald again. It's a weird bug to report since I can only attach a single screenshot

tried describing it as best as I can

[wintry latch]

How much do you need to level until you get the next certification level for artisan stuff?

[lavish spruce]

Question for the brain trust. Scribe: I try to make a scroll of processing experience. I put in heroic thread, powder, and ink, but I get uncommon as the output. Is this by design or a bug? Like making the powder and the ink, I don't get a quality reduction, but is it different for scribe?

[kind estuary]

every 10 I believe, so level 10 is when you upgrade to apprentice for example.

[tall crescent]

Any news or infos about housing for next test phases?

[wintry latch]

cool. Did you have to do something to upgrade once you get to 10?

[lavish spruce]

Get a certificate promotion and then make the tool.

[kind estuary]

yeah you go to a node with the relevant area built or find the trainer at a POI, depends on profession.
If a node has stoneworks you could just head there to upgrade mining certification for example.

[high vault]

still

[kind estuary]

Rip, was it an option on launcher install or is it just part of the game install?
Based on the file path I would guess its part of the launcher installation:

Ashes of Creation\install\PROD

Is there an EasyAntiCheat folder or AOCCLient.exe in there?

[kind estuary]

Interesting you can try the EOS setup

or the install bat

[high vault]

a window flashes and then disappears

the install bat worked i think

yep it worked

thx

[kind estuary]

np!

[cunning sedge]

Think its ok to dm Vaknar if its a question only they can answer? :x

Or any of the intrepid people for that matter 😆

Specifically i got questions regarding the verran codex api. Found something on it online but all the articles and reddit posts seem either outdated or deleted. So i thought it would be good to get in touch and get first hand information if i want to create organizational tools for AoC 😅

[dire river]

that'd definitely be a question for the higher-ups afaik

[cunning sedge]

Yeh but is it ok to dm the community managers on discord? 🙈 i guess i just dont want to overstep 😆

Never done anything like this 😅

[coarse palm]

any method of transferring items to another character that don't involve a second account or trusting a complete stranger?

[dire river]

I think @ing them here to ask to DM might be a good idea

[cunning sedge]

Not yet afaik, only making a friend

[dire river]

not atm

[cunning sedge]

Good thinking. Do you know who'd be the best fit for that sort of thing?

[dire river]

no clue, sorry

[cunning sedge]

I am not familiar with the names and their roles on this server yet, but i assume not steven 😆

[kind estuary]

I'd just ask a cm when they're on, they're orange and between devs and mods when online.

[dire river]

Steven's prob busy so I'd say a Mod would be your best bet

[cunning sedge]

Oh right, theres a mod role.

[dire river]

@/Moderator

[trim rain]

does melee wep power rating effect my bow power as an overall attack power ?

[ancient egret]

they generally dont like stuff like the codex since its data mining and not actually figuring out stuff on your own

[kind estuary]

It functions as a stat stick apparently with your bow out yeah (might be able to confirm on your char stats too, havent tried)

[trim rain]

thanks

[dire river]

speaking of, I'd be curious to know if there are any plans for having official VA in the game and if so, when

and how one would apply for it

[ancient egret]

there is not

[dire river]

as in they've not considered it or they said they plan to go with the AI voice whatnot?

[ancient egret]

they have said its way to expensive to VA the game outside of major quests or cutscreens

AI is something new they are trying

[cunning sedge]

The tool im thinking of is intended for enabling collaboration in large guilds, i.e. you place an item order and it gets split into gathering and processing orders. Furthermore I would like to enable merit tracking, because running a 100man operation merit based by hand is a fulltime job. For that end the app would need to know ingredients for crafts and such tho :/

[dire river]

🤔

[cunning sedge]

I think the closest thing i can compare it to would be ffxiv teamcraft

[ancient egret]

they have said from the start they wont allow access to the API of the game so unless its something completly outside of the game it wont work

[stark vapor]

Hello!

[cunning sedge]

Then i guess a community managed databank would do the trick. What about character data tho? Like the lodestone in ffxiv, where you can see for example crafter levels? That would mean usere of my app dont have to manually update their sheets every time they level

[kind estuary]

isnt that verran api just a third party community thing btw?

[ancient egret]

honestly i dont know a lot of what steven has said is pretty old and have not been mentioned in a while tho they are planning for something like this https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Companion_app

[cunning sedge]

Actually reading a bit more inti it it seems thats what the verran codex api was, a user moderated data bank with an api. So there was no datamining going on ig? Just players using software to share intel 😮

[kind estuary]

Probably third party data mining if anything. If you dont want people to enter skills manualy, you could potentially setup image recognition to grab artisan levels from the artisan tab (people just post a screenshot for parsing).

[ancient egret]

was told it was data mined but i dont know for sure

[cunning sedge]

Oh, thats pretty neato. Would be cool if at least that api is available to players for tool creation:)

[coarse pewter]

didnt work

[cunning sedge]

Hmm dunno. If so that might be why it doesnt show up anywhere anymore and the links are broken. I just read through this Reddit post here https://www.reddit.com/r/AshesofCreation/comments/1ee9b1e/introducing_verran_codex_your_goto_public_api_for/

Just to make sure im not sure verran codex and ashes codex are the same

Ashes codex is definitely data mined

[kind estuary]

that reddit post has a discord link you could check out (if its even active)

[ancient egret]

ah yes was talking about Ashes codex did not know there was another 1

[cunning sedge]

Just saw that too 🙂

[cunning sedge]

I mean chekcing in with ashes codex people would be a way to achieve the goal too but .... Id rather not use data mining and only official ways too

[worthy gulch]

Q: a war was declared against another node. I'm am citizenless atm. A group came in and murdered most of my group at an xp spot. Dead people told me the murderers were all red. They were all green to me. I couldn't attack them. If I had flagged up to help defend/kill, guessing I'd go corrupt?

follow up: what is the intended game play in this situation lol

[cunning sedge]

I think so. They are participating in sanctioned pvp, but youre about to attack them after all

Just like they cant flag up and kill you without getting corrupted themselves

[worthy gulch]

feels really bad lol

if someone (war or not) kills a party member, seems like there should be allowances

[cunning sedge]

Well you "chose" not to participate in the node war by being citizenless, no?

[worthy gulch]

lol

[cunning sedge]

If youre not part of a sanctioned pvp event, i dont think you should be allowed to bud into it 🤔

[worthy gulch]

how are mercenary groups going to operate then? (guessing zero implementation atm)

[upbeat elk]

It's probably a discord issue. Try unlinking and linking in incognito.

[tame idol]

how to make it to where yo ucan see peple from more than 10 feet away

[steep jacinth]

why can't there be some sort of leveling balance system put in so lower and higher lv players and be in the same group. Its a freaking nightmare trying to find people of the same lv to group up with. I've spent most of my day fishing because I'm too high or too low from all the groups.

[warped sand]

animal husbandry station?

tried the codex cant search it up

[drowsy gull]

Not sure what settings controls pc/npc draw distance

[steep jacinth]

its on the side of one of the building in the marketplace center, always across from the vendor

[warped sand]

in lionhold? thank you

[steep jacinth]

in the nodes

[cunning sedge]

My best guess, theyd sign up for citizenship in the node that hired them for the time of their contract 😮 at least with the current systems

[minor dirge]

any fighters in here? what is up with whirlwind cancelling itself 50% of the time?

[wide delta]

Is it normal in this dumpster fire pvp game to do no white damage in melee?

[kind estuary]

It seemd to do it when I was moving at the same time, but I think I might have just been hitting the skill twice and causing it to end early.

[minor dirge]

idk man, 1 tap or hold seems to fail 50-60% of the time even when momentum is full

[trim rain]

how long is the CD between guilds?

Is there a way to download the game or do I have to get an email?

[warm ore]

does halcyon have the apprecntice mining cert?

[ancient egret]

do you have a alpha 2 phase 1 key

[ancient egret]

ask in your servers specific channel it depends on what the mayor built

"Alpha 2 second wave key"

[ancient egret]

then you can first play dec 20th

[vocal fog]

okay, Thank you!

[raven dragon]

so ive noticed when i have a magical and physical melee and ranged i can proc both deadly finishers off one weapon, but it only procs the weapon your using when both are the same type (Ie physical melee physical ranged). anyone know if this is bugged or as intended?

for example greatsword bleed and spellbook burning will only proc together off one weapon when using one magical and one physical.

[kind estuary]

Oh thats interesting, I could have sworn I did that with a spellbook once and forgot all about it

[raven dragon]

ok i just got it to work

i think its a bug

[pliant kite]

are the apprentice mount spawns not working ive been waiting for swiftclaw for like 45 min

[raven dragon]

when using a magical spellbook and physical greatsword (55% proc on both) its very consistent getting both bleed and burning to proc when swapping it goes to 0

relogging fixed it

[kind estuary]

That the gryphons? I saw a ton of those being farmed (bugged afk) and one was tameable. Would have figured there would be a ton

[pliant kite]

nah its like a raptor

[kind estuary]

idk the codex says it could take an hour

[echo panther]

Hey, I accepted a quest from an NPC (Riktor Haglin) and idk where he is now lol. He doesn’t show up on the map either when I located him. Anyone know where he is or how to find?

[untold silo]

Whats the going rate for special mounts like the alligator?

[primal trail]

50c imo

[untold silo]

interesting whats your reasoning?

[primal trail]

dec 20 wipe

[untold silo]

But that's a logical fallacy since the gold itself too becomes just as effected value wise. So saving it also is pointless.

[primal trail]

Sure, both are worth nothing

[untold silo]

short sighted a bit. since realistically having a mount for that last few days gives you something to enjoy in that time.

so marginally it's more value to have a mount

[primal trail]

Agreed, so in short I have no clue how much going rate for more exotic mounts is

[slate condor]

anyone got this problem or a solution? frame generation is disabled and i got this error.

[candid nova]

does any1 know if spawns are just screwed up rn? i cant find any of the named mobs for comissions no matter how long i wait for them, or even some mobs for quests that drop notes

[spring oar]

some stuff only spawns at certain times of the day

the boss for the goblin camp outside LH only spawns in the day time etc

[kind estuary]

Some of those have like 30min+ respawns btw. (Sometimes they just seem to be bugged out too)

[slate condor]

no u just have to untick gpu debugging int he options in the launcher

[kind estuary]

oh you got it working?? My debugging is unchecked and cant run it rip

[slate condor]

yes he got the solution for me

it was that easy

[kind estuary]

Might just be my old card then, thnx for the info tho!

[green cedar]

How do you mark enemies as ranger

[torn sequoia]

you just target the enemy in question and cast the mark

[spring oar]

with all my graphical settings turned on high the game looks like dog shit but if I turn certain options down to medium it actually looks 10x better. is this a bug or am I just going crazy? on high everything looks all foggy and washed out

[kind estuary]

Lol I tried high for a minute and noticed the same, seems to be some crazy fog on one of the settings

[spring oar]

the game looks amazing now ive tweaked a few things, was actually starting to get kind of disappointed until I managed to change it. my character still looks really blurry and kind of pixilated compared to the rest of the environment etc but im sure they'll fix that when the character models are fully implemented

[prisma bridge]

are there plans on stopping the botting thats already started or?

[kind estuary]

Didnt they get banned already? Or reset.

[prisma bridge]

people are already finding work arounds. on Resna theres a mage in the starting zone with a tab autoattack bot thats been running in the rapid spawn for 5 hours so far

keep in mind they were lvl 12 when they started.

[kind estuary]

Yeah I think those would be mainly relying on player reports for simple external scripts/macro recorders currently.

Possible they have systems to flag them but ehh.

[fervent monolith]

Is rogue coming with the 20'th reset?

[desert ivy]

No. Likely within the first 3 months of phase 2 but not guaranteed according to Steven

[river ledge]

Is hunting bugged? got a single blue item the last 2 weeks with a epic apprentice bow, does anybody know?

[vapid kindle]

Help me understand. You get attacked by someone who flags and almost kills you. You DEFEND yourself and kill them. YOU GET PUNISHED by getting corrupted debuff????? Who is the genius that thought that was a good idea?? Who thought that would be fun at all?? That's not open world PVP. That is giving people the ability to grief and troll to no end and kill the game. Is this intended???

[desert ivy]

If that happened then it's a bug

You only go corrupted if you kill a non-combatant

Combatant v combatant is fair game

[late ferry]

When you guys made those tools, you have to have leveled the appriopriate crafting for the tool right? Like metalworking and carpentry

[idle spoke]

Is there going to be a fix to the lockout of journeyman pickaxe via no access to giant bluebell fiber for the slate weapon mold?

[late ferry]

I feel like how the current system works, where you can't trade tools, and if you make another it auto deletes and replaces. So you basically have to level either metalworking or carpentry as well to even level your tools.

I get trade restrictions of tools might be to stop people from having endless durability but I'm not sure that this is a better way of pushing crafting.

Yo quick question. So in my Ashes of creation graphic settings. When I change the settings, pretty much nothing changes. Like the resolution seems to stay the same. Also recently I can’t activate frame gen for some reason. It say unable because of RHI? It would let me enable it before? Also sometimes and I’d say majority of the time, when I change the settings, it never saves them. Or it will but when I open up the graphic settings again, it has a whole new list of options?

Sometimes called 'node currency', you can use it to buy certain things in your node (e.g. Capes, which you can't just buy with gold). You can't spend it until you reach level 10 and declare citizenship with a node.

what are tax receipts used for? is there a penalty for not paying them? and what happens if I pay them?

[uneven musk]

You need to have Oak logs (not the 'eroded/withered' stuff you find in the spawn town) and use it to craft them at a lumber mill

[uneven musk]

You pay taxes for player housing with them. Useless if you bought them without having them, try and sell them to someone who does. Fun fact: The glint you used to pay for them is actually a type of currency. Hoard the hell out of them.

You should probably bug report that with a screenshot. You should be able to reach your body and spam F to loot it

I've never seen prime oak before... Doesn't come up on ashescodex.com either

[uncut olive]

I am too and a question was what is it )

[uneven musk]

#alpha-two-general message might be related, rare oaks become prime?

[ashen blaze]

yeah it happens with scepter, mace, sword on cleric on every combo hit. kinda weird that i feel like i only noticed yesterday, but def could have been there before

[uneven musk]

I'm playing on full cinematic quality and don't have that. Definitely sounds like a bug

[uncut olive]

I got same situation, Prime Oak instead willow

[upbeat elk]

I think 'Prime Oak' should work the same as willow.

Soooo I just tested it again and realized you are right, there IS a camera shake, my blind ass playing at 60fps didn't notice it because I'm usually holding down right mouse button and moving my camera around.

[ashen blaze]

yeah that's probably why i just noticed recently... but it gets kinda jarring on the bigger hits of melee combos

[wary cedar]

whats the max level up and down range for group play and optimum xp gained?

[uneven musk]

I just sent a bug report about it because it's definitely jarring

I got a question regarding corruption I believe there are two colors purple and red? What’s the difference and what can I attack vs can’t and is there a pvp toggle button or do I just click on the character and use a skill
