I’m aware of the proposed schedule. We should all know that things could change and may not be as consistent as they hope for whatever reason
Sure no doubt itll be up a lot of these days is says itll be off because intrepid are cool like that, but this is the schedule everything else you cant really plan for.
People that need consistency should go play a released game.
100%
People paid for test and provide feedback, but reading this discord, sometimes it seems people are expecting a finished game.
im expecting an unfinished bucket of bugs, am i in the wrong place?
The joke is that AoC as an alphaII is far more playable than most mmos on release
but then again, i mainly play star citizen
Still need years to be done, and community support to be great and reach its maximum potential.
The haters and whiners will get bored and drop off I think… I hope..: or we get ganking fodder 😊
So I assume it will be mid morning, maybe noon, when the servers boot yeah? I assume they don't schedule them for right at midnight
yeah its in the news page where they give the times in your time zone.
I just need a little fix and I’ll be fine … just a little taste govener 
Ah, I apologize
No need to apologize! I'll see you in game tomorrow!
Sounds like a threat 
what time do the servers go back online
whether it's a threat, a hope, or a promise, they are all appreciated (and feared? I guess?)
Follow the news section for update m8 but 13 hours
You two are the 567th and 568th ones to ask
The duality of man. Literate enough to ask questions, but not enough to read.
yes
https://tenor.com/view/yoda-gif-24983832 awwww. it was a Yoda one. :/
honestly I kept scanning through the status an maintenance channel, and the news channel, hadn't considered the alpha two only channels 😑
for those of us who have nothing better to do -- we watch news channel for when they have the servers down even for a few minutes or hours. Plus, we're watching the patch notes like crazy people.
like?
Bold of you to assume any of us were sane in the first place.
insane in the membrane
Where do you find the patch notes again?
all kinds of things in the patch notes. what fixes they've tried that they want us to test out. what new content they might introduce ( like one day they will state the rogue class is available to test). what bug fixes are implemented. stuff like that.
i look at the patch notes they list in the alpha 2 News channel. I 'm sure there is a place on the forums but I don't have a link to it, sorry
No problem, and thanks
ah, my like was meant as a silly. I was questing your use of the word 'like' at the end of your sentence, imply we ARE crazy
well, they say that if you KNOW you are a crazy person then you aren't. hence, the "like". hahaha i just made that shit up.
the ol catch 22
That's some 'I'm the only sane one left' logic.
links broke
yeah, these aren't working. oh well.
im sorry
It's a sad world when gifs are blocked.
also we are def. shitposting in questions rn lol
Quick. Er, where can I find good willow?
Which hour's back up servers
I got edition 165 dollars
You should still be able to see it.
Uh QQS how many players have opened their inventories?
Has anyone considered making caravans portable crafting/processing stations for people who opt to defend them?
I feel if caravans were mobile camps, it'd make sense. But currently they are goods transport and gold earning.
haven't gotten to the point were I can get one yet so if they're already good for gold earning then I guess that would be a little much to add 🙂
Do you get stats like Magical Power Rating from your secondary weapon or just the one you are currently holding?
yes
Both
any idea of where to farm dropplings on lvl 25?
The players south of lionshold
south left? but ill get corrupted?
Yes.
no bueno
when will the servers be up again?
11 hours
thx! 🫡
what the TOS rules for this alpha? Can I record and share or stream it?
thanks ill go read it.. i must of missed it.
Does anyone know if there's going to be ping meters for different servers at some point?
looks like it will come as there is row for ping in the server selection
Ah, nice, thanks 😉
it has been more than 48 hours and i started to have my withdrawls come on lads
10 more hours, you've waited 48hrs, whats 10 more?
10 too many
home office day gone to waste 😢
I doubt I'll be able to play in 10 hrs very much, but tomorrow morning I'm hopping on and grinding all workday for sure!
Gotta love those free fridays at my school ^^
yeah the exp waste is awful 😅
I might have to reroll on a different server though as I was put on VeraUS sraight up, but I looking back I feel like my ping wasn't what it should be, so I might have to hop on to the EU server
But I only go up to lvl 5 in my 6 or so hrs I was on and I feel like I should get to that level faster the second time around.
Oh!! A question regarding races.. The descriptions say that some make better mages and what-not, but do the races actually have any significance when it comes to race/class combos?
The races are currently only cosmetic. Backgrounds cover most racial traits that you'd expect from an MMO instead. Racial ability augments are a thing that's planned but not implemented.
Thank you!
@crystal beacon Make sure to go #read-me-first and select a language to see other channels
Realms are estimated to come up <t:1737050400:R> on <t:1737050400:F>
I read on a thread someone said they have a year of game time in Embers from a pack they bought , in the Alpha Two Wave Bundle you get $15 embers can that be converted to game time? or is it a different currency they are referring too
@sly rose
The embers are supposed to be convertible to gametime through the ingame store. But as alwa5, things are subject to change.
always*
So 15$ embers is 1month as a educated guess ?
Yes
1 ember is = to 1dollar on NA servers. Currency will be dependent to its local server location. More server locations are scheduled for the game release.
try see upgrades Voyager Plus = 9month game time
I can only see x3 bundles alpha 1 (not avalible) - alpha 2 bundle and alpha 3 bundle
ohh dont have buy one yet then 😉
All packs currently available hold much less total value than the packs that came off sale last year. January 14th, 2024 and earlier you could buy packs ranging from $50-500 that included cosmetics, game time, and other things dependent on pack tier. There were also kickstarter packs from 2017 that had far more exclusive rewards
thinks is fair as it is Crowfunding, soo earlier packs has more stuff in it
Is there any clear distinction between these two other than the fact that one is in four months and one is $10 more?
10$ Extra means that you can start already now. The other one starting on 1 May
May 20th.
Nope, May 1
Wait when did they change it
It was always like that
shakes fist to the sky Steven!
Some of yall need some help balancing your life out.
Nah, balancing out our build more like it..
missing the question 😉
so i have alpha 2 but cant play? thought servers were only down tuesday wednesdays?
they're up again in ~ 7hrs or so.
😦 great when i work then
does anyone ever read the alpha 2 news announcements?
ah ty didnt see that news room XD
im not chronically online so no...
Deeply relatable mate. I just grabbed a key today after work.
rip lmao
sad day for us both XD
Well new people are trying to get a hang of things. It might be tedious, but new players are players too and I think it goes a big way to kindly refer people to info, that they might have missed.
New players are potential guild mates in the future 😉
facts 🙂 appreciate it
Or potential people to go against in PvP and loot their corpses 😄
is there a place to see a list of known bugs to know if one ive run into needs to be addressed?
not gunna scroll through the bug page for hours XD
As a new starter (when I get to start) I think my main question is whether there's a recommended server or group for Australian player?
no need to do so, but before asking you could atleast check 
It's good to report ANY bug that you find, whether it has been reported yet or not, as more people reporting a bug raises the priority of that bug getting fixed.
except im new to the channel see the green thing so i havent seen everything here yet lmao all you had to do was not reply or say to check the channel but you wanted to be sassy for no reason
you would do well to go to the thing called #read-me-first
the same question has been in here for the 100th time and I'm just confused why people don't read or use the search function before asking things 
why confused when ppl that are buying on Alpha dont even read what they are buying 🙂
It's an inevitable part of being on the internet, I've come to find and I feel that it's best to educate people on this sort of ''code-of-conduct'' than to pour oil into the fire.
Some things are not intuitive/straight forward to people, me being one of them, but I like to learn.
we have a litteral channel called read me first and they cant go there first why do you expect them to have the brain power to check with search or the news channel XD
As there's no Oceania server (yet), either of the NA servers would be your best bet. So Vyra or Lyneth.
Thanks kindly 😄
Anything for a fellow Aussie!
The Connect Discord bot has too much power - I hit cancel on that. Join for me - pfft. Know what servers I join - pfft.
@slow sky Vera has a good Aussie population, so far I’ve met more Aussie’s than Americans haha
I reckon Vyra should be taken over by Aussies...
What time can I download?
Vyra in Phase 1 was the dedicated AUS server, and Phase 2 everyone stuck around
If my PC upgrade lets me play for more than 20mins at a time, I'm down.
Good to know
In 7hrs.
Oh that makes sense haha, yeah I’ve been enjoying it with fellow Aussie peeps and NZ peeps
Vera it is then, thanks.
Ya'll need to tell me where you're at. Can't find my Anzacs to save my damn life.
Woops Vyra* I meant but you get what I mean haha
Serenami add me on AOC, but yeah I genuinely have met more ANZACS than Americans even when pugging 🤷♂️
Which is really nice to know there’s a lot of us on there
More of us there are, the more likely an Oceania server, sounds good to me.
I really hope they make an Oceanic server, but hopefully they don’t over saturate it with too many oceanic realms
And I'll @ you once I get my PC back. XD
I remember watching an interview with Steven and I’m pretty sure they said Australians are currently a big player base so that was interesting
Hahaha all good, my name is the same as my discord name
Perfect. Wonder what's tagged so many Aussies into AoC.
SEA or Oceania will 100% be getting their own server. Feel free to VPN over still, though, we love yall!
I hope so, would be nice to have a Singapore based realm to service Oceania or better yet a server based in east Australia hehe
Ping below 100 for once in my life? Unthinkable.
Haha ikr, at this point most of us are used to having such high ping that when we don’t it feels like such a treat
I think if there was a server based in Singapore our ping will be around 80-130 pretty sure
We've got plenty of nice DCs here in Melbourne they could set up in.
Singapore would be better for the reigon though as a first pick.
@ancient egretmore sass lmao
idk whats so hard about ignoring it lmao you just want attention
because every single read me first is the same most people skip them like terms of service lmao
6 more hours. You can do it.
nah thats just you being lazy
sure thing bud stay mad for nothing lmao
No need to add fuel to fire.
are servers up? for the last 3 days ive been trying to log in around this time and it says servers are down for maintenance
in about 6hrs more
careful asking questions like that youll get bitched at XD
lol
ty
last one just was too funny not to say
cope
wow that is so clutch ty so much
Okey, I was understanding at first, but now you're just deliberately being salty.
When is the livestream of Steven and pirate? And if it hasn’t happened yet is there a way to submit questions or not?
people wanna be pricks when you ask a question in the question tab and im the problem? lmao
Just move on...
Hasn't happened just yet. Is on the 19th.
Ty
Not 100% on what variant of 10am it is, but I think it's PST?
In alpha 2 news it does, not news news.
sorry yeah
All g!
Wich hours it's realsed servers up
6hrs.
also from Melbourne, I’d absolutely love a Melbourne based server.
just joined the alpha last week, how do i get perms to post in alpha 2 channels?
i just want access to the bug one so i can complain XD not really but would love to actually help the game
You have to join your intrepid and discord accounts.
#read-me-first step 3, the first linked link there.
You can report bugs inside of the game though, by either pressing ''esc'' and choosing ''report a bug'' or by typing /bug inside the chat.
ahhh good to know i never noticed it in the menu
then im fine
ive only gotten to play like twice
I got to play once on monday. Really excited to get back ^^
sameeeee but sadly i gotta go to bed now and wake up for work :(((((((((((
You could start an early download of the patch by using TeamViewer or some similar program, I believe, if you have access to a computer at work.
Or just start that up once you wake up..
You can use your phone to access your pc, but that's a but clunky due to your phone screen beign small.
wheress the pre patch and download notes?
They are not released yet, and will be posted when they have them ready, in this channel
https://discord.com/channels/256164085366915072/1299155635220512788
are we allowed to reference other games?
talk about other games and stuff? yes. but a mod might gently boot you to #general-discussion or something if it takes up too much time or the like in a different channel
ah. lol, thats where i was going to talk about it. Just didnt want to go name dropping and get booted.
I wonder if they could pin #alpha-two-news as a comment in here to answer more than half of all the questions.
Tbh, the majority of the answers are found just 1 tab down from this chat. Drives me nuts they type all that when it's a click away. 🤣
we have people still asking if they need to buy the P3 key after the P2 key so 
i wonder how many people actually read the pins. Maybe a bot automation to redirect them to the news like you suggested?
People are new, and excited. I dont mind. Teach them to fish.
This is the place to ask questions and get answers, so repeating questions are expected 🌸
hello everyone good evening uhmm servers are still down?
yep Keep an eye on this channel They will post when they are coming up.
oh thank you!
No argument there. I just thought we could save everyone some time and help them out even quicker. Also I like to use that Link Pic.
how do i get permission to join alpha 2 chat?
You link your discord acct to your Ashes acct
https://discord.com/channels/256164085366915072/908174013346508870
:3
Ah. Danke
What time zone is the server in?
I think CT, but this post shows you the time in your local time
central I beleive, but they do their times based on Pacific
is there a reason edit: that I am being dumb about that I can't talk in #alpha-two-general after linking my account?
It seems like you still didn't get the role in discord, if you just linked the account - please wait a bit, if you linked it earlier try unlinking it and linking again 🌸
Is viscera slag in the game?
expoliters being punished yet?
Can you not download the game while the realms are down?
Nope.
nope normaly not
How big is it?
hard to say as we dont get that info !
around 60GB Download keep 100GB free 😉
Are Lord oakenbane and Sergeant of the Grove in the game?
Hello, where can we go to see if the servers are online/open ?
they're not
12 inches
Thank you, when Margerette says 1:00PM do you know what time zones they are speaking in?
Please read what it says
look agian it auto covert to my time zone
but my time zone there 2h minus 5min to server will open
Thank you 🙏
Why can’t I type in the general channel
Link your discord #read-me-first
can someone tell me how to create a time stamp like this in discord i tried looking up how to do it and it seemed more complex than i feel like it should be lol
https://whatismaven.com/tools/discord/ would this work? <t:1737025200>
google hammertime
first link my man
nah i want it to show the in x hours
https://hammertime.cyou/ is what you want
thanks checking it now
I use this https://hammertime.cyou/sv
There’s lots of different tools to use tbh
Hey since you're here, I left the server because I was testing something with my Discord and now my permissions are gone :/ I've reset the discord - ashes connection and re-connected, I can see the channels, but can't write. Should I just wait another day or two? Is that something that needs time to sync?
Is there a good high level overview of professions? I've watched a few YT vids and I have the codex and I understand that there are 3 categories but like ... when I browse the codex to read about each of the much of the info isn't clear (for example why does everything under arcane engineering say it teaches Journeyman Arcane Engineering? These different craftables all do the same thing?)
It's very much work in progress, the info there might not be up-to-date.
Have you tried the wiki
Fair. Guess I'll wing it when the server comes up!
It has developer quotes about intent with design
You have Crafting, Processing and Gathering, is that what you mean by 3 categories?
Yes @placid pecan and @west meteor I just wanted to read a little more about the various details before making a choice with my first alpha character. But I will remember that this is a pre release game and go in feet first!
You just have to wing it. 😄
@placid pecan @viscid basin hey guys thanks i was able to figure it out based on the info you both provided
are patch notes out yet?
I see that you haven't selected languages yet try selecting language and the relinking your account 🌸
Got it, language first.
Worked immediately ❤️ thanks
Something cool with AoC is you don’t have to pick your initial artisan classes, you start with all 22 of them at novice level
For Eu when ashes servers will online today?
I somehow assume this will change.
I don’t think it will - it’s been their design for a while. The novice level items won’t be that useful in end game crafting so it doesn’t really bother much
That is also true.
Not a discussion channel 🙂
Ok quick question today is going to be my first day playing the game do the servers shut off at some point or are they up until they go down on Monday night
They usually have a daily restart for around an hour or so
the daily restart is about 5 minutes
there are daily restarts and potential maintenance
Ok thanks for the info
the general plan is something like this #alpha-two-news message
And as a guy who usually plays tank in World of Warcraft and ff14 is it comparable in the game?
Well the last 4 daily restarts they did were around 48 mins, 49 mins, 43 mins, and 52 mins
Tank is kinda iffy rn, a lot of people would say it's the "worst" archetype rn 
um, not sure what you are referring to with this. the 4am (my time) daily restarts had the servers down for around 5 minutes.
this wass Patching !

that was updates, the restarts are different thingy 🌸
Which they did every day once they got back 
not restarts, like Alex mentioned. sorry for confusion.
"During Alpha Two Phase II testing, we also plan to have DAILY restarts scheduled to happen at:
- <t:1736330400:t> for NA Realms
- <t:1736384400:t> for EU Realms"
#alpha-two-news message
surprice we are in Alpha state 😉
question, what is pvp flagging, and is it something you can just avoid if you dont want pvp? wondering how that works
You can avoid PvP most of the time. Anyone can however kill you whenever they want but will incur large consequences in the current game state (corruption)
do the consequences for dying change based on flag status?
Help I have a support ticket requesting a refund. I want to cancel my request for refund
Is there a mod or community manager that can help my case and inform support of this change?
Yes and no, the system is a bit complicated to explain.
you can flag yourself by pressing alt + f - that will colour you purple and signal to other players that you are willing and ready to fight. When you are purple you can attack anyone.
If you choose to attack someone and they don't fight back you will colour yourself red, become player killer. System has penalties towards player killers - If someone kills you in that state you will drop gear, loose exp and drop stuff from your material inventory.
If you choose to attack someone and they also press alt+f or fight back they will automatically become purple as well, which in systems eyes is "consensual pvp" and there is no penalty for that. If you die you still loose exp and things from your materials inventory.
so generally if someone is attacking you and you wab't to avoid PvP the best thing is to not fight back. Player killers are a tasty snack to pretty much anyone and dont live long
You should be able updateing your CS ticket as far as i understand 🌸
gotcha, and if i see purple names be wary but not scared, and then if i see red name i should gtfo?
Game down?
Generally, a purple nicknames means that this player either stole something or wants to silently signal to you that they dont want you around.
reds usualy run away on their own as they really dont want to drop gear
thanks so much for clearing it up. im excited to join in the game and see whats going on, the project was always kinda on my radar but i saw more recently and it looked worth further investigation. my main uncertainty is my only mmo knowledge is runescape so some of this stuff makes me worried im gonna suck and mess everything up lol'
Gotcha, I was able to log into support portal and update my ticket. Thank you
do we know rough time server will be up?
Dont worry.... it can be somewhat confusing at the start, but there are plenty of good guides on waht to do as a beginner. The game is very much " f--- around and find out what happens"
ty
patching now 😉
Is the Update big?
downlolading now woop
so 10 min now?
If you got good internet
118 mb/s here and i have 1gb/s

😮
why cant i type in the Alpha two channels yet?
my login screen just keeps going white on the 2nd popup when tyring to login. eventually it will just open the website with me logged in but not on the launcher? any fixes?
when rogue
You need to install the webview2 prerequisite.
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/?form=MA13LH
its been a week or 2 since i last logged on why is my game so blurry did something change?
Check for DLSS
it off
hey guys. i know that i've asked this before and according to the refund policity we got 90 days to ask for it. I've raised a ticket 7 days ago and still haven't been picked up. Is there any other option?
i imagine that the date of the ticket make it a reference, then the payment back may take a while , i m not an admin so don't put too much credit on that, but that s the answer I already red here
Isn’t the ‘uptime’ for this stretch of testing just 4.5 days vs 5+? Thursday 12pm local to Tuesday at 12am? Not complaining but trying to get the timeframes right
what timezone is the interview in? it says 10am but what TZ? #news message
PST
ty
When is the rogue gonna be in the game?
Before May
did this and still stuck on this after correct login info and have verfied that it is on the website
Try:
Top right select cog wheel
Clear Login Session
Clear Game Cache Settings
Log in
when i chop trees, my shield goes away, am i missing something? all i can think to do is after each tree unequip then requip shield...
clear game cache wont work because it says it is patching but i cant tell if it is or not since it wont let me log in
Keep getting error code 32 while trying to get to character selection, allready did a repair action, anyone else having this?
Close it completely (try task manager)
okay
For reference, the launcher has to launch the website using webview2 for your login.
same error when trying to clear and still stuck on the same login screen
If anyone has encountered a problem, the character is selected, I click enter the game, nothing happens, then I get an error.
if i force refresh the page it logins me in but still wont login through the launcher. i also had no issue last play test and everything was working fine.
what is player permission code 14?
This error is generally caused when trying to create a character when you already have too many on the account. During Alpha Two the maximum number of characters on an account is 10. If you do not have 10 characters across all realms you can open a up a support ticket and we can investigate your situation.
https://support.ashesofcreation.com/hc/en-us/articles/360047796594-Alpha-Two-Error-Codes
interesting, it throwed that at me while creating my first character, but then it let me do it, thanks
the code 32 is killing me. Anyone knows how It can be fixed ?
It states "active treasure hunt limit reached" Any1 know what do in this scenario ? Last time I did a treasure hunt was like a week and a half ago 😦
I am in the Philippines, and cannot access website now unless I am running a VPN. I also cannot Login to launcher, getting error code [30] every time, VPN or not. @digital sonnet Anyone, any suggestions?
@digital sonnet New freeholds that were added cant be bought, they are all glitched
Please report bugs you come across in-game using /bug
i did but its a huge disappointment 😦
Totally understood. We want to get bug reports in the right places, so the team can get them fixed more quickly.
This channel isn't the right place. This is place for Ashes of Creation questions and their answers.
Are you going to address those of us that cannot login at all?
We're always working to get people in-game.
If you're talking about code 32 and 33 errors, those often clear on their own after a few mins (but we see the reports of those coming in, and are looking at it).
If it's something else, please report those in the right channels. This is not the right channel for those reports
Code [30]
im stuck trying to authenticate. it lets me login on the first pop up then the 2nd one goes white and stops loading.. ticket already submitted
If you're having issues with Alpha Two (log in, bugs, etc), please put those in the Alpha Two channels.
Then questions channel is not a place for reporting issues
Do we need to abandon the quests that were bugged and could not complete, or should we be able to simply complete it now?
anyone able to answer why i got a prompt that stated the i9 cpu can get possible crashes? are they common?
Intel CPUs are known to have defects
oh okay, thank you
OK dumb question, first time Alpha - how do I get rid of the body paint in the character creator?
Does anyone know if I purchase the alpha 2 phase 2 key, do I need to purchase the alpha phase 3 key when it starts in May as well?
No, A phase 2 key lasts until a month after the game launch.
Thanks a bunch
There are many graphical glitches during character creation that sometimes even persist into the game. It is based on your individual setup, graphics card and others. You may just have to deal with it for now, make your character and see what it looks like once in game. Then /bug it, and grind in your clown suit. The more content you do, the bigger your name, the more you will be seen, thus motivating them to fix those issues. Have fun.
The channel in discord that has the server uptimes and patch note links that you use for communication disappears after you have seen the information and click off of it. Why is this happening, can this be fixed?
It's possible something in Discord is hiding it. Check "Browse Channels" at the top of Discord to make sure you keep the channel visible on your side.
If it helps, here's a link to https://discord.com/channels/256164085366915072/1299155635220512788
You probably have the category the channel is in collapsed which doesn’t show you the channel unless a message is unread
It was checed, I unchecked it and rechecked it now it stays
Weird
@digital sonnet Ty!
How offten are taxes supposed to come up I'm having to pay every thursday and my number is going up by 100s every time, last week I paid 200 ish this week 317 and it says payed through till thursday and I heard taxes were 2 weeks not weekly
How to leave guild?
Are you planning to have Wipe for Start of Phase 3, as was firstly planned?
Yes
Thanks, I saw this one but I am not sure if I fully understand. Does it means, no wipe for current server but they will add new one?
No *planned * wipes and new servers added.
trying to figure out why in my Video settings it says I need to enable my DLSS Frame generation. Any ideas how to turn this on? I have verified my monitor in graphics settings has Hardware Accelerated GPU scheduling turned on.
Is there an easy way to swap inv with other character?
Not yet
ty
what is the max lvl diference to not have any reduce drop rates?
Hello I have a question about how the waves of alphas run.
im at the forge and we have a lvl 19, is that ok?
If I get the alpha two second wave do I get the third wave as well?
or do I have to buy them separately?
It will get you access until launch
got it thank you.
Is this not a huge change from what the original design was or am I conflating the exp changes to be the same as the loot one
I believe the exp and loot tables are different in this case. But haven't bothered to look. The exp nerf when grouped vs level difference is why most keep it within 4-5 is my take. Feel free to research.
Will look into it. Thank you!
does lumberjack survey pilon work? I see buff but I don't see any change in numbers
Even tho you don't get the pop up. if you attack a raft caravan in water will it make you go corrupted? and will you get the loot?
Caravan pvp shouldn't corrupt you
@spiral pine it still flags me purple and doesn't give me the attacker defender pop up
is it because it's passing through lionhold?
What's the speculation on Summoner release?
Phase 3 I heard
i get the same thing and it works fine for me for about 30 mins. Then i get kicked. If i dont mind i can keep doing that. However I get bored of it and havent been logging in. I don't know what kind of defect that would be for my machine with the very specific timing of it. I have no trouble in any of the other games I play (and I play a lot of them) so I take it as something that will either eventually be sorted or i just wont play unless I have enough patience that day. The code and link they give you when you long in sends you to an issue with Fortnite btw. I actually DONT play that lol.
So... with this patch. Did they fix the shield visual bug? Or are we still blocking with fresh air?
Anyone know what this means?
that an error happened
can we equip stuff from account inventory (website) ? such as cape?
For future reference, this page has details of known error codes https://support.ashesofcreation.com/hc/en-us/articles/360047796594-Alpha-Two-Error-Codes
If you don’t see what you are experiencing, make a ticket with customer support or post in #alpha-two-bugs-issues-old
got it
Is there a channel for Technical Issues? I have been everywhere and i do not know why it is not allowing me to turn on DLSS in this game. I have the appropriate video card and the settings are correct on monitor.
ask in #alpha-two-general is a good bet
if you don't have enough space on the drive it gets stuck like that
i have 🫣
Just close and relaunch
it worked, pls give this guy a job at the intrepidstudio team
how do i begin to get money?
Farm glint from mobs -> either sell glint directly or buy commodities from node vendors -> put commodities onto a caravan -> transport caravan to a new node -> sell commodities there for more monies
i can sell glint to node vendors? is that in the marketplace or somewhere elsee?
Any vendor you can sell glint to
I keep getting error codes this morning when loading the character screen and crashing
Are you allowed to stream this game to friends or is it NDA?
No NDA for Alpha
yay

check here for potential solutions
anyone near lvl 15 looking to farm xp ?
I checked this but no solution there for 32 my connection is good etc
I’ve seen other people have the issue post in #alpha-two-bugs-issues-old - you could scroll through their and see if anyone has a fix
I think the recommended fix is wait it out and it will eventually resolve itself but idk
Got somethign i need clarifiation on. The Tank skill "Iron Aura" reads "Reduces damage taken by 2% for all party members within 10 meters." Is that a 2% damage reduction granted to every party member within 10 meters, so that they take 2% less damage, or is that a multiplicative bonus for the tank so that if 7 party members are within 10 meters the tank takes 2% less for each up to 14% total?
It's for other people. It's an aura.
do you remember where they dropped?
Anyone know what Curio coins are used for?
They do not
having issues with game crashing/freezing
is there a way to prevent this
i heard caping your fps works but its grayed out
Why did they remove the additive effects of Ball Lightning? i understand removing the ticks by 50% but now the skill does not add damage as it ticks across
Why if the realm times out, it kicks you out of the whole game? Kinda hard to stream with that in effect
try updating your driver, run the game in 1080p, windowed mode
It is in Carphin but no idea what to do with them and can’t click on them still
but like any idea where in carphin or which mob? 😄 They are for a quest but I can't get any 😄
Request if anyone knows the keybind to get your coordinates to pop up?

Possibly dumb question. Is there a way to make the camera move with my mouse? Like ESO?
I think action mode does? (z key to toggle)
Bless up brother
Turn off Super Resolution and then you can set Frame Limit
Is player housing live?
I'm having trouble distinguishing what is planned vs what is implemented in the wiki
Freeholds are in in their basic form but still missing a lot of features. Instanced apartments, in-node static housing, and inns aren't yet in
Why are there so many flame elementals at HH?
Is there anyone on here from Intrepid that can help me with a Kickstarter purchase in 2017?

Thanks, will try and get one raised 😊
after the patch my game has been freezing up, anyone else experience this?
Whenever switching weapons from long sword to book it gets rid of my shield but when I switch back to sword I still have the animation of holding a shield but there is no shield visible

Thank you
when you get 32 error just leave it on the screen without clicking ok and it will eventually move on
when restart EU?
The post here should show when daily restarts are scheduled in your local time: #alpha-two-news message
it says "4 minutes ago" but it's not there, so is it postponed or will it not happen?
Oh, I don't know. Pinging the team to see if there are issues.
For things like bugs and other issue reports, #alpha-two-bugs-issues-old is a better channel than the questions channel
Probably means starting tomorrow since they just turned the servers on 8 hours ago.
you have to move your mouse over the time to see the date is tomorrow
how do i fix a broken pickaxe?
nah that didn't work at all the chars were missing for over an hour. I had to reset my router and it worked
You go to a vendor in any of the towns, button is bottom left, repair
next time try disabling and enabling your network adapter, thats faster....
@idle siren please when are you going to release rogue class :c
Prob not till Feb, Jan is likely ptr
Sad but ok Thanks @crystal beacon
where do I report someone?
Was playing now all of the sudden crashing non stop.
Also if I get in game it will crash if I open the auction house
thank you so much ♥
There’s no main story I should be following (yet), right?
So I should be just farming cash for gear and just go do my own thing?
Or is there something I should be doing? I’ve just been trying to get copper gear
There are a few localized quests. A lot are broken, jank or are classed as level 8 and send you to poke a level 17 3 star POI boss. Nothing current long questlines or chains exist. This is a alpha testing environment so just do your own thing mostly
Sweet. Just making sure I’m not fucking my self over by just farming and exploring
Hey guys, I'm getting an issue when trying to launch the game. It either says I don't have enough video memory, or blue screens and says "KMODE EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED"
Whats your specs?
Processor: i9-14900ks
Video Card: RTX 2070 Super
RAM: 32 GB
I meet the minimum afaik
I've underclocked it already, that problem is solved
How do you under clock it?
Through the bios
reduce the voltage draw, in layman's terms
Yep yep
to Under recommended base settings
Can AoC be run in DX11?
If you can, try running it in DX11 instead of DX12
Minimum requirements says dx12
Ashes prompt saysEasyAntiCheat not installed. Any suggestions how to fix this
There is a BAT file in the folder that you downloaded.. Let me see if i can find the exact spot
If you go to where you have AoC installed it is under Intrepid Studios/AshesOfCreation/PROD/EasyAntCheat
Mind if I send you a DM with a screen shot, of a possible solution, if you havent tryed it already?
Sorry is the next file then use the installer in the easyanticheat folder.
I will try that Fuppo. And yes you may Dragun. I did find the EasyCheat installer. I run it as administrator and it seems to not do anything.
that was dierected at someone else, see the reply 🙂
Sure!
this ? EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup?
@clear coyote could you send to me also? I have same chip and can’t stop the crashing. Just did a bios update/flash with no luck
What is this shape lmao I can't un think it. I'm just curious was the shape intended or am I just a dirty minded person 😆 either way to me it's funny
Here for anyone that might be experienceing it. THis Might be a solution. Has worked for one person so far.
Is the desert area fairly fleshed out, quest and exploration wise?
Considering trying out a new char there, but as a solo player if it's barebones I can't be testing much
No, it's basically just some terrain atm and some mobs
It's also a high level area atm, so you'd get 1 shot by every mob there as a low level
Thanks for the info
Disabling "Fast Startup" is just a good idea anyways. Microsoft's infinite wisdom: Hey! Let's make it so "Shutdown"....and stay with me on this....DOESN'T shut down the computer?! Best idea ever!"
Yes, very much so
So just wondering I just logged on and now in the lobby shows no characters and says waiting for character data validation.... anyone know a fix for it?
How long is the cooldown on guild invite? Having trouble finding out how long I have to wait.
anyone having the bug issue service request timeout code 32
Ah. Yeah friend and I were in a dead guild and decided to make our own. We left, he made it, he invited me, and he got that error, but we couldn't find like a timer anywhere.
I have a simple question was wondering if this is possible, is it possible to switch servers with a character you already made?
No
Do you just automatically get to the level after novice for artisan levels?
What level novice do you get to the next one?
Has it been mentioned if we will ever get more character slots on a single server, I would love at some point to have 1 of each class on a single server.
When you hit level 10 you can go to an npc to promote your certification and unlock apprentice. Same for Journeyman at 30, ect.
Promote it at a foreman for the relevant skill
so are they working on the whole steal someones loot, become pvp flagged, log off, log back in, no longer flagged thing?
No there is no work being done on anything
lol
Well when you loot a corpse if you dont enable flag then it lasts for like a minute. So usually it just normally clears by the time you log out and back in.
Hello, I van finally speak here.
So this is like the official discord for ashes of creation?
I got some question to aska about Alpha 2, apparently you can still buy a pass, and I am considering.
However, is it just for the Alpha 2 phase, or will it include Alpha 3 as well, does it also count for beta? etc? what's the deal?
everything going forward, don't buy it unless you can deal with gamebreaking and seldomly character bricking bugs.
I'm fine with bugs, I know its an alpha, but as long as it covers everything going forward it should be worth it.
whats the install size of the game so far? like how much free space would I need?
yea i was asking because people steal loot, and instead of waiting or fighting, they log out and back in to get rid of the flag. avoiding pvp. exploit right?
around 60gb
ah thats good, I canf ree up that space
ssd too
Dunno. Good to /bug and perhaps do one CS ticket report about it
will do
wont ever come to steam
so I guess if you get the alpha, you get a downloa dlink on the site for something?
yes
well for $110 access now (or with my internet speeds, tomorrow night) covering everything going forward as well, seems a good deal.
is there trade in this game, like can you trade with other players, is there also some sort of market or auction house?
yes
awesome, i know of a coupole MMOS that don't have trade between players, and whose market system is tightly controlled.
But I guess trade is important to the classic MMO experience ashes si goign for, right?
Is there a way to see how much courage you built up?
look for the circle surrounding ur class emblem next to your health bar
oooooo thanks lol
the player market is quite limited. It’s at t0 right now so more will be added (and it’s disabled atm because causing crashes) however, each market is unique to that town/node. it’s not a global market
Sorry, bits of an old message I didn’t finish got caught in there
aight, from what I udnerstand are there two nodes? or more?
9 currently I think. Nodes are the towns and cities in game. And are player progressed and controlled. Mostly.
Or it was 8.
ah taht sounds cool and interesting
ye the node system is the soul of ashes. Go give it a look on the wiki 
yeah im reading it, so how does PVP work? do you have to "opt in" or can you be killed anytime in the world at random?
anyone can attack anyone by flagging up (purple), if you are killed while unflagged (green) then the PKer will "work" towards becoming corrupt (red)
Question is there a npc that sell mount for caravans?
You make your own.
I see there's no npc for it?
no
I've currently got 3 Bear Beast of Burdens for caravans if you want them?
You need to gather mount animals like horses or bears or any of the other ones, get the non-carcass version of them, and then craft a mount at a stable. It's 50/50 between a mount and a beast of burden iirc
so your saying it is always PVP eseentially, accross the whole mpa, all the time?
why is the launcher slowing down my whole pc?
Depends, how many parallel operations did you set? If its alot, it could chug your PC
Still no fix for exploiting and mob training? Been getting trained by the same people for 2 weeks in Carphin who exploited their way to 25, insane that they’re still got a character
is the wolf mount worth it early game?
essentially yes, just depends on if ur flagged or not
@shadow bluff any chance I can have my name changed to match my in-game name, "Glass"?
All good if not just thought I'd ask.
Just "Glass"?
Thanks man! That was fast
Not sure if this the appropriate venue, but i'm sure someone could point me if not perhaps, do the nodes themselves benefits from delivering caravans to them? I'm curious if there is a mechanical reward for a node receiving or successfully shipping cargo.
Taxes technically.
Hi I DM'ed you thanks
Hi Caravan Veterans, just want to ask so is it true that once your caravan got destroyed by players. The component you put in the caravan will be destroyed and gone forever too?
so if you don't flag as pvp you are safe?
You are pretty safe because if they want to kill you they would get corrupted and corruption is pretty bad.
They will only kill you if there is a pretty good reason to do it
Correct
that is right. Which is the biggest reason i have not run caravans on Vyra the passed few weeks. I can deal with losing the commodity's, but losing 40 willow wood everytime it gets destroyed to is just to big of a hit
so I guess technically you could still be attacked no matter what?
I got nothing against PVP, but it shoudl be optional, not mandatory.
Technically yes, in practice it doesn't happen... unless you made someone really mad
Not worth it for them in 99% of the cases
This game is pvp centric
well, till someone node or guild decs you at node storage anyway 
Auto restarts not working on vyra?
I was just teleported from my caravan to my home node
Is my caravan going to be there?
Auto restart is not working on Lyneth
Restart failed for sure
We get no Shrek tonight 😭
How do you remove tattoo's in the character creator?
I get that, so for the content which needs PVP to work, it can be that.
However, if you are just farming mobs, or gathering, regular travel etc, you shouldn't need to worry about PVP.
If you can understand what I mean.
Wdym farming mobs and gathering? These are potentially valuable resources and could be fought over. And they probably will if they are rare/important enough. So thats content which needs pvp to work isn’t it?
Ure right tho that fighting someone who gathers low tier/starting resources shouldn’t have to worry to much, however these resources should be valuable for everyone else it will be difficult for newcomers to enter the market if they were worthless.
restart da servers, and my life is yours...
Where to buy the resummon caravan item? Does anyone know?
Does someone know how finisher, deadly finisher and extended once work exactly? Or is there a source where you can read about it? I looked at the wiki but the wording is a bit confusing
Is Phase 3 a full Wipe, start over
No daily server reset on NA servers?
JM Scribe building doesn't have JM Enchanting scrolls, is that intended?
I just got a massive memory leak
How do you come out of purple mode? XD
Anyone know when the Ted guy is going to spawn at the lumber mill?
can someone tell me if there is a difference between novice and apprentice entchaning sroll right now? i guess apprentice is for lvl 10 gear and novice for lvl 0 thats it right?
Correct
alt f
Thank you!
however if you are force flagged by looting a corpse (ashes) it auto goes away after a minute or so
That is what happened, I did not realize it was a corpse. 😵💫
if you alt f then you will stay flagged 
look for the crossed swords on your status thing in top left
Oh it did vanish by itself, I hid in a bush.
👀
by itelf haha
Hey everyone, does anyone have the problem where when they click the mouse the background kinda goes less blurry and then blurry again when you release the button? If i have a menu up clicking the mouse kinda highlights the menu and then goes back to normal again when i unclick..?
Nah haven’t had this issue, but tbh I feel like I’ve had more issues since the servers went down for 2 days than I did previously. I have had a lot of lag all of sudden, have you experienced that ?
How long is marketplace disabled?
When do we get the Summoner?
In phase 3
Should be back after today’s patch
is there a location with really condensed larch wood trees?
Do the map treasure mounds ever respawn in a different location? We spent over 1.5 hours with 4 people searching and we could not find it. I don't want to abandon it as it's a rare map but omg
as I understand it, the location is determined when you start the map. i do many of these, and yes they can be difficult to find. especially if you have a rare with 4 circles -- and the location can be on the edge of a circle, not always in the intersections of circles. you may have already gotten the suggestion to lower your graphic settins to see the marker. it looks like a oblong piece of dirt. it may be cliipped by the land maybe. I (helped others) find their a location for a rare map yesterday and it did take a bit to find it.
Yeah the entire group i had is all familiar with maps and we tried every trick. We even tried cutting down the trees and hugging rocks to try to find it but no luck. I'm starting to assume it's under the freehold that is dead center on the circles.
i hope that isnt' the case, that they are showing up under freeholds. i did see one that was in shallow water though.
mountaintops
There's no water within my circles, I'm gonna give it another hour today and if I don't find it I give up lol
Im still getting 'service request timeout. Error 33' right before character selection. Is there a fix for this? I tried the repair opties allready.
Caravan kicked me off and now cant "pilot" it, how to fix?
I'm looking to create the Journeyman pickaxe, and was curious if you can mix and match the ingredients levels for the Slate Mortar and Slate clay that goes into the slate weapon mold, or if they all have to be the same.
you cannot mix and match rarity in processing actions
but you can in crafting, or no?
you can for completing the pickaxe I believe? I did that on the first pickaxe I made. Just not the ingredients (Processing) before that
yeah. you can mix and match a full rainbow in actual crafting. result is based on a breakpoint system from material quality and any other applicable (you likely will have none for tools) buffs you may have and is not random.
But all processing actions with multiple items must be the same rarity.
hello people. I have having an issue booting Ashes on my new PC. it says i am need DirectX 12 to run the game and i do have it. been playing other games that has and uses DX12 yet Ashes keep asking me for it. is there a fix?
are they as uncommon as like willows or braided in the sense of numbers on any given landscape?
they are heavily farmed, but you can usually find at least adolescent
If they really want testing to occur why is it that copper nodes are still very scarce? I was having a great time but had friends quit since crafting is this huge copper requirement hurdle, is there anything in the works that you guys know of? The granite/stone giving this tiny chance to proc was barely helpful as most know we need a real fix even if it’s temporary by adding more static copper nodes
is leveling still = grinding?
Treasure maps pay out big. Even uncommon ones, I did one, and got 40 uncommon copper.
yea mostly, after 10 for sure.
if you get an answer to this let me know, having same issue
asked before and was given basic troubleshooting steps that none worked unfortunately
Hey so somewhat silly question, for solo players just getting started, what server would you recommend? I'm on Lyneth and I just see pirates everywhere
What time is the patch supposed to be today ?
it seems noone ever answers this things
i check here for answers for this https://discord.com/channels/256164085366915072/1299155635220512788 - the patch question that is
why is it that in an alpha test phase people who find exploits are being punished and not rewarded?
(As long as said exploits are reported)
They aren’t reporting them. They are using them for advantage and to grief others
i believe people are being punished for finding and using explits, not just reporting them.
They want you to find and report exploits. They don’t want you to find, test, then abuse them so hard Christmas morning that Steven makes a discord announcement about it
When it arrives, which will be some time in Phase 3 but pretty much 100% guaranteed not at release so probably 3-5 months afterwards
The intended situation is basically:
- Find exploit
- Do exploit until you have reproducable steps that cause it
- Make detailed report about exploit
- Stop using the exploit and delete anything gained from it, because otherwise it shits up gathered data
What is happening is:
- Be part of a zerg
- Find an exploit
- Identify how to do the exploit
- Tell your zerg how to do it and that they shouldn't report it and everyone should do it a ton
- Abuse exploit until cheating makes up for skill(Never)
- Be aware that you will get punished at some point, pre-emptively make mule characters and trade your ill-gotten rewards off to others so that you can keep them, level up alts so that you won't even have to re-level when it comes because last time they just wiped the cheating characters to 0
- ???
Finding and reporting exploits is good and you should be doing it
don't hate the player, hate the game
Finding and then rampantly abusing exploits and skewing the rest of the gathered data in a way that taints the whole point of this alpha even existing is bad, and when people get punished for it and banned for being stupid they lose any right to complain
And it's largely the same groups of players doing it as in P1, which were the same groups with a reputation for this type of behavior outside of Ashes, and primarily big zerg guilds because that's just how zergs operate
It's why Resna was awful, it's why Vyra currently sucks, because the servers are largely dominated by guilds full of exploiters that are completely incompetent at the actual game and can't even build a town correctly
it isn't up to us, it's up to Steven and the devs what they do with exploiters. it isn't personal.
Vyra has a lot of smaller guilds if you don't wanna Zerg out😂
Resna needs to go back to being Resna, and leave us Vyrans alone.
Condensing servers was a massive mistake, IMO
I hear you. What I meant by that is the design of the game, not the exploits, is why zerg pvp guilds will dominate.
It just might take a bit longer if there are zero exploits in the game
but yea, exploiting sucks, I don't approve of it
Eeeeh, honestly I think condensing down the playerbase was important for gathering data on how people will interact in a confined space, it's just that unfortunately there is an innate problem with zergs because they're the equivalent of a kitchen drain catch. It's just where the worst players end up accumulating. Happens in every game that has large group sizes.
Realistically speaking I think the only way that they can actually "solve" the problem is if they have realms that are designated as the equivalent of Rust Solo/Duo/Trio servers, where you can only actually have one guild worth of people and if you're found to be doing the sort of Guild #1-30 stuff we're currently seeing, your characters on that server just get deleted and you get a warning to move to a large group server.
Any in-game means of solving the problem quickly gets rendered little more than a logistics and organizational issue.
Part of the issue was that zergs can hoover up resources. If they made resource collection fairer, then honorable pvp over other limited resources would be more common. Instead, they incentivized mob leasing and looting, and ganking other people's resources cause attackers always have the advantage.
It's why a lot of people aren't running caravans until something is done. And that messes up a lot of the testing of that mechanic
Honestly the caravan part is more because zergs got bored and ran out of stuff to do so now they're just PVPing whenever they can, and caravans are free PVP
But this is getting to be more discussion than answering questions and one of the mods is gonna get mad soon
True
Probably ought to move to #alpha-two-general
My shield is constantly dissapearing on my tank, I assume this is a known thing?
Yes
thanks
Are there still issues with enemies being invisible?
Yes.
how many bag slots can i end up having?
3
You can replace the Sanctus bag with other bags if you want, but it's a good idea to keep it in your inventory at least
If I have my ranged weapon out, what effects, if any, of my melee weapon tree is supposed to be active for weapon skill points?
thanks, bag management seems to be a bit of a nightmare, atm:)
Ngl I carry both lumberjack bags and mining bags plus the sanctus to juggle as needed
yea i end up doing so as well, but having one bag, just to fit all the other bags to then manualy replasing and rearanging is a bit to get used to, hopefully gets streamlined a little down the line
Do bags keep there inventory if taken off ?
Nope, if you switch a logging one with a herb one, you cant unless they are empty.
Same deal
K thanks
What time is patch today you think?
How did you find any hints? When I enter area nothing does anything.
I don’t think there’s anything planned - the only routine patch we get is at the start of the phase
is this an appropriate channel for newbie questions? do i need to find an inn to log out at?
No inn, you can log out in the wild and sleep by the river or in the forest
thanks!
It is
ty ty
Restart didn’t happen at 4am today so.
Can you enchant harvesting/crafting gear
Yes
You cannot, tools cannot be unequipped
You can do it for the shirts/pants/belts
You cannot otherwise
Axes, picks, sickles, fishing poles, none of them
Well better then nothing 🙂
Just don't waste it on anything below Journeyman
And make sure it has the appropriate stats you want boosted
@idle siren Question: Are drop rates handled by the server and therefore prevented from being data mined in the client?
If so, follow up question: Will the drop rates always stay "secret", having communities to work in gathering information to figure out the drop rates.
Obviously now in Alpha2 the rates are very much subject to change, but this will give me a clear indication as to what direction we have to take within the community to figure out the numbers/profits.
Hey, sorry if the question has been asked a lot already, but does anyone know when they might release the rogue class? I just got the alpha key but that was the class I wanted to play
Rogue is an archetype in Ashes of Creation.
The rogue is more physical disable oriented: Applying bleeds or snares or having precision damage that's situational. Being stealthy. That's how I view the rogue role... The rogue's like you don't see me, I'm coming in and boom I stab you in the back and I do extra damage because of it. Now you're bleed...
^ look in there under timeline
the last quote about the release date is from 8 days agp
Hi - A friend is trying to create a new account to purchase the game but it seems like may have made their password too long and now their account is locked. Is there an amount of time that accounts are auto-locked for?
you might want to have them raise a customer service ticket
!cs
Include more keywords after this command to search for answers to some of our FAQ (ex. !cs password reset), or open a Customer Support ticket directly here if you are having account or technical issues: https://support.ashesofcreation.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
but that may take a few days, so they could also create another account with a shorter password
Anyone know how to get apprentice adventuring scrolls?
Gotcha thanks big dawg
Does this game take a lot of data? Traveling and thinking of using my hotspot to play but scared it’ll use up alot
Just playing,
no downloading patches or anything
~65ish GB last time I checked. Oh, nm. The data it uses when playing is minimal.
ty @dark jungle
theres blue sparks around some stones, but gave up cuz we couldnt find more than 8 and the quest went nowhere, maybe it has something to do with tumok
What is the benefit of crafting gear with uncommon or better materials?
When I click on the stones it still tells me I need a tool, no update. Did you get a tool or same thing?
hmm thats weird, we didnt have anything to do with tools, it just updated the quest after we interacted with them
Where is cotton seed sold? Vendors don't seem to have it? Or at least they did not have it in the towns I checked
are rarietes in nodes just for laughs? i just harvested over 200+ and got about 12 uncommon and all the rest were common ive heard a bit about people testing legendary nodes and them being a constant thing has anyone else tried or tested this? should i just sit in one area where i know they spawn?
One of the things I've noticed is that spawns that are more out of the way from similar spawns seem to be higher quality. I.e. a random basalt spawn in the world likely is higher quality than a spot with 5 basalt close together
ive noticed that a bit but more just seems to be groups that are further away from a road or easy access from others i just wonder if there is a bit of a "timer" to rarity like since the last time it was harvested
why cant i log into ashes?
servers are down rn
go to the news channel itll tell you everything np
idk if this is for ingame questions too, but where do I finish the crate delivery quest? Cause I travelled for solid 30min without finding any "Crossroads" or "Higher tier nodes"
It is - you go to briarmoor farms just slightly NE of Alan ruins
any idea where that is from lionhold?
I think that's how that area is called
Go east through the ruins (where you spawned) then you just follow the road going NE
If you open your map in game or on ashes codex website you’ll be able to find it
It’s a really sprawled out location but there is a POI marker on the map for it
ty 🙏
How do you turn in quest from the bored tried click on the bored and the chest beside it but nether worked ?
IF I buy now the alpha key, when I will be able to play ?
If you buy the one from December you can join as soon as sever are back up (it's what I did)
It's the 110 US one if you use US
In your Journal. You complete them from there
Oh ok
thanks
Np
For level 10 rocks you needa update your pickaxe
Any idea how long the maintenance will be?

Servers will be back up in about 2hr so... Yeah
Go to any node town and talk to the storage clerk. You turn the quest into them
new question... how to get alpha II tag
I was about half way through doing animal husbandry trying to get a wolf mount when the server went down. Will it continue when the server comes back up or did I lose that hard fought for silver and wolf?
It will still be there.
Are you able to check the cost of taxes before becoming a citizen?
Nope
Wait, citizen taxes or the node taxes?
Citizen taxes
Ya no, they vary for everyone
Seems like we should be able to see how much it’s at. My taxes are quite high, if i was to move and take gamble i get shafted with more tax. Especially if i dont like it and want to move back
Taxes are pretty cheap even for those with high taxes. But they're definitely not anywhere close to done iterating on the tax system. I'm sure there will be changes down the road.
are you in halcyon on lyneth? if so they will not be that high literaly anywhere else the other nodes dont have 30000 citizens
Are relms down?
yeah for about 2 hrs
TY
How will I know when the realms are back up?
Realms are up now
So where are the player punishments I was told today?
There’s still like 7 hours before they leave the office today
They may or may not blast it to everyone as well. They may just send emails and perform action on the offenders.
If they do that atleast make an announcements there freeholds are up for grabs. So at the very least we know they were wiped.
don't think they will do a wall of shame, although i'm all for it. I kinda guess Steven will make an announcement with general actions taken vs exploiters, but no naming and people affected will get a message.
Looks like the storage NPC in the staring zone disappeared after the latest patch ! Lionhold storage is therefore NOT accesibble now for anyone !
Hello everyone does anyone know where i can buy a second material bag in New Aela?
I logged out with a Treasure Map active. Logged back in and the yellow circle on my world map is gone. Is my treasure map lost forever?
does anyone use a spellbow as mage? how viable is it vs spellbook or wand?
Sometimes you have to log in and out for the circle to appear.
If it's not showing in your active quests at all, you may just have to cut your losses.
Oh I wasn't aware it should be showing under active quests. Yeah I don't see anything there
It's probably gone then. When you have one active before an update, this can happen. But at least it doesn't brick the quests anymore. You should be able to start a new one, if not, submit a bug report. They've been working on maps but there may still be some issues to address.
How do I get access to write in vyra chat
step 3 if you have alpha access https://discord.com/channels/256164085366915072/908174013346508870
Yeah which is sad because wall of shame would be funny. However I want one of there none earned freeholds ngtl.
Thanks
Freeholds wil get redistributed later anyway
How nit-picky should we be with bug reports? Report everything so it gets pushed and fixed faster, or just report the crazy stuff?
Report everything - no reason not to
Things like “floating rock here” or “typo here” can maybe be forgotten tho but somebody has to report it once so
Question for yall cuz maybe it's just me. Does anyone else have issues with updating ashes causing their whole computer to freeze during patching?
I report alot of things, Just because someone reported a floating rock once in a diff zone, doesnt mean its not valuable for them to know there are floating rocks in other ones.
SOmetimes more info, gives them the solution!
the /bug ingame function takes a ss and records your coordiates, Super handy
Yes my PC takes a shit aswell during
Try turning down the parallel operations (click cog in the right hand corner, then the patching tab)
Yeaaa I've done that, same issue
Are the taxes ever going to be fixed? because this bullshit it actually ruining th game for sme
i can not see any mention of the bank npc in lionhold being moved or removed but cant seem to find him? anyone know something about it?
How are they broken
TBH i think they are working as intended but its a stupid amount
Yell at the mayor
when did you become a citizen of that node?
when i hit 10 maybe 3-4 weeks ago
i understand its a ranking system but its the stupidest thing ive ever seen
what could be causing this error?
try a repair acasti
roger
when tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty
Death and taxes huh?
still happening after repair
How close are we to journeyman mounts on lyneth?
is there a way to gift an alpha key to a friend?
Why are tax receipt purchases taxed
?
nope
You can always give him the money and tell him to buy it
There’s just no gift feature - doesn’t mean the act can’t be accomplished otherwise
jaja, ty
Can Treasure caches appear in water or on cliffs?
1
Does crashing/relogging lose your cache if you havent found it yet?
no. sometimes you have to relog in order to get the circles to show on the minimap
assuming this is like karma or something?
i do have the circles.,been running around for over an hour
what rarity?
heroic
turn your graphics on low. I did have an issue with one not showing (pretty sure it was clipping under the map like the trees) but no issue ever since they did the updates. Heroic map is a big area and hte more likely scenario is you jus thaven't found it.
yeah, i threw it on low. its not that big of an area tbh theres so muhc circle overlap
where kingfish spawn
that's a pretty big area. check DMs
should be yeah?
still just 1
Hello, what journeyman building should allow npc vendors to sell journeyman enchanting scrolls? We have the journeyman scribing bench now, but no journeyman enchanting scrolls being sold by vendor.
Why does my DSL internet connection say its DLing at57 Mbps but i am only DLing 6.82 Mbps from AoC patcher?
I have reset my router and restarted my PC but its still so slow
I have been at 95% for a looooong time
Is there a chance that the treasure spawned inside citadel? I literally cant find it outside and Im usually decent at finding these things
Nvm im just blind af
Christ
the only mobs here are gravehide creepers which don't seem to count
@noble plover I think you may have to ait for night time if you are looking for skeletons
*wait
ah i see
mobs change day/night
what is making me redownload the game every time i open launcher
i literally played this morning
oh maybe its just an update
Has anyone since the wipe can anyone say they have gotten a Grem carcass above blue rarity (rare) ?
Yeah, patch today
anyone know any reason i cant turn a quest into the person its telling me to?
Been farming grems for a week and nothing above a blue and only 2 out of like 300 have been blue (Rare)
boneyard brigade says return scout things to a specific npc but when i talk to them its just random dialog
most likely just alpha issues pretty standard during this phase of testing
figured as much just checking if anyone knew a fix but its cool
yeah I'm not sure the specific quest you're referring to but I've heard some rumblings about issues such as that
from my guildies
For crafting in general do you have to sit at the station the entire time it’s processing?
nope
Once it is started you can leave is how it is currently.
does any1 know where to farm otter carcasses, i killed 300+ in multiple areas, none spawned there, any help please?
i think you have to hunt them, not farm/kill them
when adding crafting materials, how does mixed material rarity affect the result? For example a few purple + a few blue ?
does material rarity give a chance a craft will be higher rarity or guarantees it?
I'm currently stuck on "Establishing a Settlement" Quest which wants me to deliver cargo to a storage clerk at any crossroad or higher level node, I'm currently at Briarmoor Farms but I can't find any npc to finish the quest, pls help 
You can turn that into one of the node towns. Im not sure you can do that at the Farms?
ah fair, ty
Some mobs you’ll see don’t have HP bars but have a lil target icon above your head. You can harvest those ones
yes so ur saying killing mobs to drop it better?
yes i understand i farmed level 10 to be able to farm otters but problem is i dont know where to find them , been running all around beaches and where they spawn
is this a mount?
Train it first in animal husbundry stations
i dont see one in lionhold, assume it's just in a different area then?
awesome
yeah go to town, or some are in the world...
I do not think they share spawns with mobs, they’re their own spawns. I could be wrong. Could t say an exact location but I have seen a much around the rivers on the western side of the map
Does this game take a lot of data? Traveling and thinking of using my hotspot to play but scared it’ll use up a lot (playing not downloading any patches)
does anone know where/how to get Janie Anybones Pinup?
https://ashescodex.com/db/item/Resource_Raw_Reagent_JanieAnybonesPinup
how do you start animal husbandry?
Hiya, just picked up the test today. Curious what the RP scene is like in the game so far? Think I saw mentions of roleplay in some guild recruitment posts.
one of my guildies just told me to tell you do the repair option on the Intrepid launcher... alot of these errors are client side
