appreciate it
you're welcome
I've a question , is anyone free to stream ashes ? where can i read more about that?
Anyone can stream the a2 servers. No one can stream the ptr.
whats the ptr ? sorry to ask
Private Test Realm for ppl who had A1 access
same for me
Quest items unable to be deleted from inventory even after abanding quests attached to items. Quest inventory is full this in consequence means I can no longer do anything that requires picking up items for turn in.
Any suggestions aside from deleting the charecter and starting over
Send in a bug report at the least
Did that
it has been fixed i assume to allow you to craft even with the zinc in your quest bag
are there dungeons in the game yet?
Several
so whent people type in global "LFG" they mean for dungepons?
Depends on where they are grinding. If you are thinking something like WoW dungeons, instanced that people go in small groups away from everyone else, then no. People find a spot that have the mobs that drop what they are looking for, or provide the best exp/hour grind and focus on those.
ah, so no instanced dungeons yet?
There will be very little instancing in Ashes. Any dungeon that does have it will be part of a storyline/arc and will drop substandard gear.
so what kind of dungeons are in the game yet? just POI's to explore around the open world?
Dungeons in Ashes of Creation will range in size and will be mostly open-world.
Open world dungeons will be populated to facilitate multiple groups within the dungeon.
80% of dungeons will be open world.
Instanced dungeons will also be present and will cater for solo and group questlines.
20% of dungeons will be instanced.
Some boss rooms (within...
Currently there is no instanced content at all in Ashes
Is paying taxes bugged? I've paid 224 tax receipts towards 118 in dues for Feb 20th and it still tells me I owe 118 in taxes for Feb 20th.
anyone have a source for crafting experience needed per level? example carpentry.
Citizen Reputation Vendor does he exist and if he does where?
Ive repaired, reinstalled and even shut my computer off and my game still isnt launching. Does anyone know why
anyone found an answer to this?
What does it do
hey I forgot abou this game for years... are you able to change your username or in-game name?
You mean in discord or website?
website
You can change what name is shown but don't think you can change your username without a cs ticket and don't think they will anyway
Someone answered you the first time your asked in #alpha-two-general
whats a good class to start off with?
if i buy the alpha 2 second wave now do i have to buy the new pack for alpha 3 or does it cover everything going forward?
I click launch on the game. The game starts to load on a black screen then crashes. No crash code. Nothing. I also updated my drivers.
None did?
Try these two things
I will thank you
Do you know where is it? , cuz he doesn't know he's guessing
Did you check there?
Yes in Miraleth
Well that's the only place I've seen them
where do you get zinc?
Mining node
any specific nodes or just any of them?
Zinc Nodes
Not nodes as in areas, but nodes as in ore deposits
yea i figured that just didnt know if they were a by product of mining anything of if there were zinc nodes. Is there a specific location to find zinc nodes?
not really
technically zinc can drop from granite and basalt as well, but the chance is kinda low
ah okay
And on those it shares the pool with copper and ruby
so even if you get a drop, still only 1/3 its gonna be zinc
how rare are zinc nodes then because me and a buddy have been searching for almost an hour and havent seen one yet
Do more people have that the servers are extremely laggy? I cant even walk right now
Do highwaymen lvl 1 1-12 do drop forsaken items?
I hit lvl 10 in lumberjacking and then filled the bar to go to lvl 11, I got the promotion so it says apprentice but I still have a lock on the xp bar that says get apprentice certification from the lumberjack guild. Is there a way to remove lock or is it just bugged?
how to disable this?
Page Up Key
thx sweetheart <3
Why the Warrior's spell Whilrwind (spin) get auto cancel after 1 or 2 spin, i dont understand, the skill stop, its random, its stop even when i dont even touch the keyboard or mouse
Where can I go to learn more about Guild Progression?
"weapon combo" means pressing Q?
think taht is the 3rd attack
You sir are a legend TYSM!
Was the quest to farm wreckless gear from pirates meant to be disabled or just a bug with new patch?
can you not load a preset of a character you saved?
It's hit or miss currently with mostly miss
damn
Do highweyman monsters actually drop forsaken items?
does nodes can levle up yet?
Yes but the max level is 3 atm and every node is already level 3.
because of players progression or they started at lv 3?
The final version it won't be possible for every node to get to 3, but the vassal system isn't in yet
Player progression
they started at 0
all of the nodes show as lv. 1 for me
They shouldn't
I'd assume that's because once they've hit level 3 they can't gain any more xp
when was the last "wipe"?
December 20th
i assume the next wipe is expected at may?
They're planning to add some new servers come May when Phase 3 starts, but the current servers will remain up. So people that want to stay on the existing servers can, and people that want to move to new servers can also do that
oh that's nice. whats the current level cap?
25
We don't know when they intend to raise it
Max level come launch is planned to be 50
well thats more like 2026 stuff xD
so at level 10 i can "pledge" as a citizen to a specific node?
is there any pros/cons per node that i can see?
Iirc the Highwaymen at the Highwaymen Hills do, other Highwaymen don't
Certain nodes have certain buildings built that other nodes won't have
Currently though all Nodes are the same "type" (e.g. they're all Scientific/Academic atm even though they'll be classed as different on the map) as currently only Scientific node types are in
And they're also all Kaelar Human aesthetic atm as other racial aesthetics aren't in yet
What does Lirc mean?
If I recall correctly
I'm saying I think that only Highwaymen Hill mobs drop Forsaken items
and how can i get some health potions? I got 3 of those but they lasted not very long..
Buy off other players, or craft your own by getting the Recipe and doing it with Alchemy
how can i get the recipe?
For salves you start with it by default I believe
any luck on this? that's happening with me too
he wrote that drivers update fixed it
where can i drop off the parcels tat i picked up?
how can i get different mounts? i saw people ride on wolves, bears etc
Set to Motion quest is duable? cause i can't find all the evidence spots
animal husbandry or buying one
are servers down ???
Havent tried yet but hows tanking, similar to any other mmos(pulling wall to wall) or is the tanking a higher skill role with skillchecks/strats or need more group synergy for pulling a pack at a time
Anyone know where is Howling Oak?
seems to be a quest line that is bugged called the boneyard brigade the multiple people around me about 6 hasnt been able to turn in the quest any help ?
i cant post in bugs so here it is
You can /bug in game and report it there.
If you want to post in a2 channels you need to connect your discord to your intrepid account like it says in #read-me-first
None of the classes are in their final form or even near it.
Yesterday I saw two mobs being stuck at their spawn locations, how to I report that?
And is it worth reporting every thing I encounter? Like visual bugs?
Use /bug in game when you see anything
If you have screenshots you can use the link before to report out of game
!cs

The in game report will take a screenshot automatically along with other things
any adcice on which race for cleric and Ranger??
how do i sell on the market
race doesnt matter yet. Just looks.
you need to be level 10 then you can.
ok ty
are the pre-order packs like mounts and cosmetics available in alpha 2?
Not yet. The cosmetic system won't be implemented until sometime in Phase 3
Anyone know where the vendor that sells stuff for aboreal cocoons can be found
Just found a copper spellbook which is way better than my starter wand. The problem is this damn book is right in my face. Is there a way to hide it?
Surely there must be a better idea than a spellbook in your face
I don't have the auction button active, I can't put up the items, what could be the problem? Is this a bug?
Are you lvl 10?
no
You need to be level 10
is there any real puzzle to solve at the chest in new aela
can anyone tell me if the scorpion broodlys actually drop from the scorpion broodlying huntabels?
I just got an error message “heartbeat timed out” what does that mean?
Alpha phase 3, will all classes and combos be open to test?
not all from what we know but most
Thank you. I am looking into buying into Alpha, but still trying to get information. Again, thank you.
its worth getting to test out and see how it feels for you
is the deadly large fishing derby bugged
is the broodling mount glitched speed or is it going to be 185 for the forseeable future?
Phase 3 is a long phase, basically will run for multiple years. At the start of phase 3, no, not all classes will be in. In fact at the start of p3 we might still be missing the Summoner archetype and have zero classes still. By the end of phase 3 we logically should have all the classes
My graphics card doesn't support DX12, so I won't be able to play the game, right?
Why isn't coal being mined? I spent 2 hours mining granite, basalt and other rocks, but never got coal.
Where can I find Journey Man equipment for Lumber Jacking & Lumber Milling?
how do I apply for a refund? you need to start your launcher at 1 AM to play the game at 6 PM, this is the worst experience I had in my life
Policy, instructions, and link are here: https://support.ashesofcreation.com/hc/en-us/articles/360018517854-What-is-the-refund-policy
hey guys ive been ea for a almost a week now still not able to join the other discord channels ive linked my discord to intrepid any help is appreciated
actually it still says im new here????
i asked this question 3 days ago and was told it may fix itself if i wait what an odd lil bug
why does the game keep crashing - Character loads for a second and then crashes back down to launcher
Did a repair and it seemed to fix it.
Is there a confirmed date for Rogue/Thief release?
No yet 
So desert having an issue - keeps freezing with the caravans launching.
Since only mayor get flying mounts what if I'm not the mayor anymore do I lose my flying mount
is there an interactive map? really struggling to find copper & zinc to make armour.
You can try to:
- Make sure that you're connected to the right account if you have multiple Discord accounts. Sometimes the bot automatically chooses your secondary discord account.
- Disconnect and reconnect using a different browser and/or incognito mode
- remove aoc-robo-kot from your authorised apps and reconnect
How can we start play? I just came here?
If you want to play, then you have to buy access to alpha
check out ashescodex.com it has a map.
Copper and zinc are tougher to find for sure. They have a chance to drop when you farm granite and basalt. Do some treasure maps they can give you some as well.
Yes you lose your flying mount.
got it working as always thank you been reporting a ton of bugs wanted to ask in bug issue chat about if some were known thank you again
When rogue and summoner will be available
why can't we trade pylons ?
why does my character's hair and beard change when i change weapons?
most important bugs still alive since 2 month caravan etc
When is caravans being fixed lol
this is horrendous
2/4 hours of traveling just to lose a caravan
waste of time
No ETA on a complete fix
Been like for months
Indeed and they've been squashing caravan bugs
what is Code:32
It's actually a timeout message but go on
will do, thanks!
Am I able to play a healer, tank, mage or warrior currently. I know single specs, but what are there allowed and not able to play currently? Also, is the house building up?
Currently Tank, Fighter, Cleric, Ranger, Mage, Bard are in. Rogue is the next archetype to be added within the next few months.
House "building" isn't in, but the very basic initial implementation of Freeholds (open-world player housing) is in
Thank you
Also you mention "single specs", but there aren't any classes in atm (the dual specs as you'd put it). Classes are planned to start being added sometime after May
Thank you. I will keep looking into more about the game. I sent you a PM for future info, if you do not mind.
GPU Crash dump Triggered | I got this message poppe dup. any reason why?
It popped up because the game crashed
Can you take all the artisan skills to journeyman?
no you can only take 4 professions to journeyman
Artisan progression occurs based on experience (repetition of tasks) as well as achievements of certain benchmarks within each artisan branch (Gathering, Processing and Crafting). Progression in each artisan profession is per-character.
Artisans start off as novices in all 22 professions. Only 5 professions may be Apprentice and higher. Only 4 pr...
i have been trying to figure this issue out i have even limited my frame rates for ashes and its still maxing out my cpu, I currently have a Intel Core i5-12400F 2.5 GHz 6-Core Processor any suggestions?? as well how do i get perms to talk in the alpha-two channels?
go to #read-me-first and click link to connect your account
thank you
Anyone know how to stop crashing in Aithenar? I can't load in... i've been trying for about an hour now. turned down all my settings. updated graphics drivers. repaired the game installation. I think there are too many people in the node or something
anyway to report bots?
/bug in game
If you have proof that's saved on your computer instead you can use cs link below

f.... i still can't sign in. been trying for the better part of two hours to not crash.
Rebuild
trying to reinstall then, cus repari doesn't work.
That sucks
how do i sturt this quest?
which one?
"Establishing a settlement"
Deliver cargo to the storage clerck at any crossraods or higher leveled nodes
where cna i find said storage clercks?
in the node towns
Joeva for example?
Yes. Look at your map, you cant miss the towns, they have big colored icons.
so far there are 8 mayors per server then?
and who are those vigilants that I need to give the lost parcels along roadways?
Along the road to any node town, a bit out from the actual town, is the guy, around a tent.
Is there any way to get back the caravans I have lost? they vanish from the game
gotta be 6 different ones or can be the same npc?
Anyone else rubber banding really badly today
Depends on the prob. You can try logging out for 15 min or so, see if that resets it, might not. Alot of people lost caravans to bugs and stuff. /bug in game if you cant get it back
no dude, 6 parcels, 1 guy
nah,, did wait for many days, many bugreports and still nothing
Not much you can do then. : (
Have Steven or any Dev spoke about tank problems recently somewhere?
not that I know of. YOu can check the weekly feedback on what people are reporting, is the best idea of waht people are trying to get fixed. they work on the biggest items on the list the best they can
reinstall. and my client just closes still... sigh what the hell
I can't get into the server I got in for like 5 minutes long enough to submit a bug report for rubber banding then crashed
Devs are aware that the older archetypes need work.
For example, during the PTR test on Wednesday where we tested the Rogue, one of the devs said that they're aware that archetypes like Bard and Rogue are far above the older archetypes like Tank, Fighter, Ranger, etc. and those archetypes will be getting love in the future such as new abilities, reworks on their existing abilities, etc.
Tanks had modifications very recently. among some additions that allow them to inflict status effects more frequently like tripping on the 3rd hit of Vengence? and it became more tedious to keep defense up, but you get 10% more physical defense from the spell grit i think, but lose out on some threat generation.
hey guys!! what time the servers is going to be offline today ? (time and timezone)
I was doing a Caravan, had to return to Aith because I forgot to load. I then get teleported to Carph. When I tried returning to my Caravan, the game froze. When I try to connect to the character. I am unable to.
How can I get this sorted so I can continue playing?
2AM is the planned server reboot
Repair your launcher and log into another character before trying your bugged character again.
Happened to me too
I was told by someone that you can not get to the caravan unless it is destroyed or something. i had this happening to me when i was being attacked the ot her day. i couldn't log in until they burned the caravan down and took the items out of it
There is a daily restart at 2am PST
best to just give them the link to see themselves lol
A lot of people just want their answer and not a wall of text tho
tks guys!!
Has anyone here bought an upgrade to alpha from beta2 package ? if so will it grant access to beta1 as well ? i assume so but mate wants to upgrade but seems too expensive to upgrade to alpha with out the beta1
It does include Beta 1. Alpha 2 is the long phase though most likely running multiple years with the Betas planned to be "short and sweet".
ok so he has beta 2 already but want to upgrade and if does will get access to all right?
all subsequent testing i mean
if he upgrades to a2 then he will get everything after as well
cheers guys
UGH. finally loaded.... woo! back to it!
So if i have high rarity on my lumberjacking is it actually increasing my drops? cause im a JM and it feels like all i get are greens
if you get all greens it is working
im still getting more commons then anything but when i do get something else its a green.
Make a higher quality axe and gathering clothing that have +rarity increase on it.
any reason my cpu is hitting 85 utill i have a 7800x3d and a 7900xtx
nvm its fixed just relaunched seemed to just be using alot of resources
wierd
shader compilation maybe?
maybe
i got it lower to about 70% utill but still seems a little high even tarkov doesn't get that high and its unoptimized way more than this. lol
prolly just a bug
still seems to jump up to 90 every now and then which doesn't seem right, only game that seems to do this currently so I'm assuming its a optimization problem. fair since it is a alpha
@obsidian knoll @idle siren caravan glitched, cannot get into it, tried logging out for 10 mins, and coming back, caravan still there, still cant get in. its high end with full load i cannot access. any way to fix and continue? It also states that its not my caravan (different owner each time i click on it, indicating glitched)
hello all
i haven't been around in a very long time, wanted to check up on progress. i am pledged for beta one or two, can't recall.
last i checked it was supposed to begin back in 2022 or so, i think?
sorry to be a bother but could someone please bring me up to date?
when are the 250 dollar packs coming back
They're in alpha 2 wave 2 currently, 3rd wave of alpha 2 is scheduled for May.
Here's the roadmap afaik
Thank you very much 🙂
so nothing regarding beta any time soon?
Unfortunately all I've seen for beta 1 and 2 is that the wiki page says to be announced. :/ sorry about that.
Anyone know if its possible to transfer guild leadership?
I created the guild on what i thought would be my main but have changed course and would like to delete the character and reuse the name later though dont want to risk guild deleting as well

hello everyone, may i please ask is Winstead the only area with those little independent workshops around(cookhouse, woodshop etc)?
and also once i got my fishing to apprentice, is there anywhere i need to specifically go to fish the higher level fishes? or anywhere as long as i equipped the apprentice rod?
thank you
Depends on your server. Each node can specialize into different areas, but each one should have its own unique vendors if they get their hands on the required resources.
ohh i see so the independent work stations are based on the development of node. Thanks for that
Each node should have all the novice ones, but anything higher requires them to build it
oh ok may i please ask what category does fishing comes into? like the vendor to buy fishing gear, is it same as cookhouse or do they have a specific npc like fishing vendor for it?
I thing they would have their own, but idk I'm not a mayor so I don't have access to that system
ohh ok, i'll have a look around town, thanks again for all the help
is there a way to check and see if the party leader has master loot on
Is there a way to get rid of quest items for quests that I abandoned because I couldn't complete them?
i know if they change it part while the party is going you have to accept
but maybe open the guild manager (default to y) and look there to see if you joined a group already going
whats ashes stance on addons(i dont use em except in wow which i hate doing)
thats good, i cant stand mmos where its just an addon crutch with obnoxious players
how do i make money
sell stuff
sell what ? and how ?
sell something that makes a color blind person think they are getting a good deal, like if blues look purple to them then sell an overpriced blue item
that doesn't help
for the first 1-10 you can sell glint. Grab some quests from a node town and lionshold from the town professions board. Gather X. They can be easy to complete and get you some glint and exp. You can also sell mats you farm if you need to. After that, selling items/mats on the different town marketplaces can help. People do caravan runs but they are best done in a guild/group.
but how do i sell glint ?
So what is the official rule on multiple accounts running at the same time? I was under the impression this was NOT going to be allowed... but it already seems to be the meta.
is there a vender i can talk to or something ?
you buy caravan commodities with glint, and transport them, and then sell them (further = more profit)
You sell glint at any vendor. One in lionhold, and others around the different areas in towns.
Hallo Guys I have been searching in the internet to see if there is illegal farm basically i buy seed and plant in the wild and have risk of being stolen ?
because i like looking for hidden spot and plant seeds like in archeage is fun
not a thing... the only way to "plant" things is on a freehold farm
That sucks i hope they implimet it 🙂
what about health potions where can i buy them ?
At a town on the marketplace you can sometimes find them.
You can also make them at a town alchemy table
i dont know where the marketplace is
Go to one of the node towns. They are there its a stall in the middle of town, they all have them
ok ill look for one but what about making the health potions do i need a recipe ?
not for the lower level ones. Find the alchemy table and take a look
Has steven or other devs commented on possibly changing glint in a group? I'd much rather simply split the glint drops equally than have one person get lucky (even if its me) and get 4 bright glint and hour vs someone getting 1
i had a look at the alchemy table but the only thing there is stale snowdrop powder
You are still in Lionhold the beginning area. Those profession tables are just for noob stuff. Look at your map and you will see big colored icons. They are Node towns.
The game does not really hold your hand very much. You will have lots to figure out. It took me a while to learn my way around but it's fun! No rush. Enjoy it
What if my caravan falls out of the map?
I bought the game in 2023 but I can't enter alpha 2 Can you please help me? No matter what I do I can't get into the game.
Because you only have the Wayfarer pack which gives Beta 2 access, not Alpha 2
When can I log in with the Wayfarer pack?
Beta 2 is the last phase before launch which is multiple years away
Hey ! I've seen a Skinwalker in a marketplace somewhere. But no data on where I can find one. Any idea ? Might be a treasure map reward only ?
@tepid dew They spawn around Lionshold on the east side south of the goblin caravan event that pops up. area has lots of spiders and hounds. kill the hounds to help force spawn the tamables 🙂
I paid my taxes but i'm still getting the notification that taxes are due when i log in, is that normal?
Hey sorry if this has been asked a million times, but how long should it take after you've connected your discord account to be able to chat in the exclusive channels? Thanks
what is this?
Its a visual bug likely, although that is pretty funny lol 1969 talk about owing backtaxes. Have that window up and /bug report it.
Its been buggy. You can try disconnecting and reconnecting in an incogito window, or different browswer. Sometimes that helps.
What's unclear here? You need to invent time travel to pay your taxes and become your own great grandfather in the process
i bought the game 2 days ago but i can play it because it freezes in 15-20 minutes , there is a huge ram usage i cant find the solution anyone help me?
is it normal for my auto-attack to not trigger by itself? I have it set to on for all auto-attack settings
for reference I'm a brand new cleric, idk if that makes a difference
It should start pew pewing as soon as you are in range and have mobs targeted (this can also cause some issues lol with aggroing)
are all three of these checked?
wow thats a big pic woops. I need coffee
yes all those are checked, and yeah it works for my other classes but for some reason cleric isn't auto attacking
i need to manually press the button and then it starts the AA
which weapon are you using that this is not working on?
scepter (starting cleric weapon) and a shield
Grab a wand or spellbook as well. Does it still not auto start? You should have ranged and melee weapons, and as a cleric you will use both.
sec let me try
Melee you have to have the mob targeted and in range. If that mob dies it doesnt auto target you have to target and it will start up again.
Confirm exactly what the conditions are you are not seeing it start. Also, turn those boxes off and on again, restart ect ect. If still an issue. /bug report it. But it may just be something you are doing/not doing as well.
weird, i have a wand equiped in my second set of weapons and now it works, yet I'm still using the scepter
yup, and if i unequipe the wand (again, from my second set of weapons, not being used) it goes back to not auto-attacking after using a spell
im trying to complete a foragin ahead commission but i cant find the mayoral commission depot, anyone know where it is or how it should look like?
Its a box on the ground by the board where you got the quest
how long does this last
ik alpha is still alpha but for artisan stuff will professions be more interactive in future, like will the timer aspect get removed and replaced with something that keeps you more engage, like the lumbermill having you scrape/shape the wood, blacksmith having you smooth out the edges of the armor, tailoring having you im guessing sew certain parts of the cloth together, cooking having you add ingredients, cooking something just right and then product is finished(think cooking mama lol) if not its fine, also i havent did any professions yet but lumbermill cause i just started maybe 10min ago
like irl i work deli/butcher(i lean towards cooking proffessions in game), part of what makes those enjoyable for me is doing things accurate and consistently for a period of time and possibly training others in those, so with some mmo players who might treat it as a fulltime job they'd be more engaged and make teaching others come off as professions feeling like a minigame for someone whos never did it. ik the normal system is timers tho so idk if itd be well recieved
another random but brightside is it could combat botting as a form of captcha, like if ur blacksmithing and armor is laid out on a table and to smooth the edges or whatever you gotta hammer certain areas the correct amount of times and any overkill could make you have to restart on that piece, a bot could make an average 15second process take much longer to finish and a player whos very familiar in the profession could turn a 15sec process into 5seconds, just a thought tho
I have two doubts...
Will the game still have graphical updates before launch or is it already in the final version? I see that the attacks go through the monsters and there is no animation for taking a hit
and the second:
One of the things I like most about Albion is inspecting attributes, you can see how many kills, victories, fame, etc. the enemy player has
The game is literally multiple years from launch. Quite literally nothing is final or even close to final
Combat, VFX, animation, graphics, lighting, nodes, UI, economy, artisan skills, classes, mounts, movement, etc. etc. etc. none of it is done
For context, currently only around 8% of the world size is currently in the game. That should give you an idea how far away it is from release
I was told that the game might be released in 1-2 years
And since it's been done for 5-6 years... I thought we were already in the final stretch
You were told wrong by someone obscenely poorly informed
really?
That is likely either from people that don't know what they're talking about, or are misunderstanding the "phase 3 will last until at least May 2026" statement.
The game has technically been in development since around June 2017, but they started with only around 12 employees. They had to build up to the 240~ they have now
more 4-5 years then?
All comes down to how much money Steven has. If I had to say then I'd say yeah, 2029 is probably a good shout, but it all comes down to if Steven can fund it that long
Yes. The game has not been "Done for 5-6 years", it's not done at all. The game is in Alpha. It is in testing. That is the purpose of what is going on, testing, feedback, bugfixing. When all of that is done, years down the road, THEN the game enters Beta. Beta is when things like graphics and audio polish become more of an active focus. That's not to say that they aren't a focus at all even now, but, the primary focus right now is more along the lines of like
Can your character go from Town A to Town B without falling through the world? Can they interact with vendors? Do their skills work? Do buffs work? If stuff breaks, how does it break, and why? And fixing any sort of issues with that, and more
The game is being worked on, updates are occuring, things are moving forward, it's just that the scope of the intended game is extremely large and it is going to take time for that to be finished
Are there some concerns? Yeah, absolutely. There's some periodic issues with communication from the devs. There are concerns that given the scope of the game and the length of development that may be required it's a concern in peoples minds of whether there is enough funding for it, which there probably is, but people are gonna worry.
But
Overall?
Stuff is progressing, now that the holidays are over updates have been cranking out
Alpha 2 is probably gonna be running for at least until sometime around 2028-2030 depending on a large number of factors at a guess
Thank you very much for this amazing information... I tried to search a lot of things, but I still cant find it in my language
We'll see how the next 6-12 months go
In that time we'll get a better idea how the pace of development may speed up
i have the game, but I havent played much yet and I dont have a guild
Good
Regarding question number 2, do you have any information?
Which question is that?
I'm extremely competitive, and one of the things I enjoy most about MMOs is when you can show how strong you are to other players. 
One of the things I like most about Albion is inspecting attributes, you can see how many kills, victories, fame, etc. the enemy player has
Basically inspect enemy attributes/achievements, such as kills, etc
AFAIK there aren't plans for a direct inspection system, but people can see your gear and stats do have an immense impact, but gear and balancing will change drastically throughout development
By see your gear I mean like, visually
Not the stats
You can be dripped the fuck out
anyone here been able to get the wreckless quest to work?
Anyone know where the HUD Profiles are saved on the computer? Moved to a new machine this weekend, and dont want to spend the hours re-mapping all the UI element locations for each character if I can avoid it...
A lot of quests are bugged or unfinished. I wouldn't waste you much time hoping it will complete
Is it a way to move the "You have died...." window?
I'm stuck in the world, I tried to climb but went into the mountain and now I can't get out of the space. How do I handle? I logged off and restarted game but that didn't help.
Problem fixed on its own.....
my map is stuck at the top of my screen, ive tried everything i can think of to get it unstuck. resize the settings, reset hud, windowed/unwindowed etc game. nothing lets me grab it away
what is the unstuck cooldown?
where can i get the Fox of the Pyre mount ?
guild crafting: with the limited amount of bank space and guilds trying to pool mats and gatherers to crafters, I am reminded of the game Shadowbane(the OG of PVP mmos) where guilds had warehouses that stored mats, craft from, guild leadership gave permissions to ppl and the log was viewable by the whole guild...think we can do something like that?
currently i have wood stored in one bank, rocks in another. Ppl are using Alts as storage..its very inefficient
Yes, many systems you see now are either placeholders or not done.
https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Alpha-2_phase-2 Here is a list of planned things
Scroll down Phase 2 Systems you will see "guild storage"
Hey Folks, my game looks horrible. 4070ti mobile.
Is there auto upscalers being turned on VIA Unreal Engine 5?
There must be, even if you go to 4k on a 4k panel and turn off all upscalers you get a blurry mess around the character.
i really hope you guys turn that off, no one should have to suffer that loss in fidelity, for any reason other than a personal preference.
Step 3 will assign you the Alpha 2 role (Linking your discord to your ashes acct). It could take a bit to update though.

Can anyone help me figure out why my resolution quality setting isn't working? Like the tab is there to change the quality but nothing drops down when I click on it.
What is allow dual defensive and offensive target lock?
Its basically good for super classes
Allows you to have a friendly target and enemy target at the same time and use skills on them according to how the skill works
mayors need to construct artisan buildings in their node to get access to those trainers
Do any of you know where the actual game client is in the folders?

How do you quick swap between your first hand and second hand weapons?
Any news on when rogue is coming from PTR to a2 servers?
So when you are in action combat mode, is there a way to make your mouse appear when you open a window? because having to swap back to use a menu is really annoying.
Not currently. Though I have found pressing Z works
Right, that's what I was saying, you're just swapping back.
Oh I see. Then yes that is the only way right now till functionality is improved on
That would be something I would like to see added, it's very inconvenient to keep having to swap combat modes use to use my inventory or dialogue.
So I can’t pay my taxes, if I’m ejected from citizen, will I lose all my materials in storage?
Sorry I posted in wrong channels I believe
Servers are still online?
Yea
No im searching to
Kk
what time is the server going down and where can I find that info?
typically it goes down at 10 PM on Monday night, but last week it went down at 6:30 AM on Tuesday morning I believe. (these are all server times, or PST)
According to news it was down 2 days ago
and you should read the comment above the one (i think this? #alpha-two-news message) you are referring to, it says "going down for an update" if i'm not mistaken.
additionally after the note you are referring to, it says the realms are all up, and then provides patch notes.
Everything is located here friendo - https://discord.com/channels/256164085366915072/1299155635220512788
Typically it goes down every week on Tuesday 1am EST

Why Can't I speak in the vyra US
thank you all for your responds
Is it possible to get a special permission to change my nickname on here?
On discord I mean
What u want me to do for 2 days now ?
Literally nothing 😭
I became ashes addicted
ty
Are servers down for 2 days now?
yes
Shii, thought I had a few more hours
im not botting you freak
just another hyper spawn lol
clowns these days
sure dude
I was hitting you for about 5 minutes without your reaction
you didn't even move at all
In the end, I killed you naked and still zero reaction
Why you capping I was wearing my vr glasses and spaming my skill and Target select
yeah, sure
If I buy a subscription in a more expensive region will I have access to the cheaper ones?
If you are in a price harmonized region, then you play in that region
when does this game come back up? literally just bought it yesterday
This post shows it in your localized timezone: #alpha-two-news message
During phase 2 of A2, servers are up ~ 5 days/week and down 2 days/week
ahhh ok thank you brother
anyone know is they are going to wipe caracter on Alpha 3 ?
No one knows and its unlikely
most likely no wipe, they will have new servers
okay I herd about them reseting node but did not anything else
They didn't plan to do it previously but things have become weird enough on enough different things that something is gonna happen to shake things up it feels like
they might do that later on when they implement lvl4 nodes and vassal nodes
is sns the only option for tanking or could you make 2h work
2h can work
thanks!
Welcome cool thing about this game is you can make a lot work. I am currently a cleric using a spellbow and a spell 2h lol its been a blast!
ya i was thinking of doing a fighter/cleric for a ret paladin class(ik the tank/cleric is paladin but im not sure i wanna go that route yet)
either that or fighter mage to hopefully do flame element dmg like a dragonknight in eso
i seen pirate software doing spellbow mage and it looked dope
Yeah once they release all the classes and the sub classes the builds in this game are going to be wild and different! I am here for it all!
how good is bard dps at the moment, i like playing support but i dont wanna be super low on dmg compared to other
another question in addition to that, does bard support abilitys scale off the weapon or just base stats/level, i kinda wanna try sword and shield on bard unless thats not a thing
oh they do magical dmg so im guessing itd be scepter/shield, wand, spellbow or staff
bard has good dmg but its based a lot on auto-attacking. There are spellswords too you could use, just look for gear with int and enchant it , u can try using a shield also, its probably not optimal but there is one that gives int, all magic based classes scale very good with int
does this shield have a level 25 version or do i level up the level10 version
no, this lvl10 one is the only shield that gives int from what ive seen but u should focus more on lvl 10 gear because its a lot less expensive to enchant (enchanting is what currently gives the most benefit stat wise)
oh so this isnt like a tradition mmo where req lvl matters
is it similar to like how poe gearing works
i mean .. lvl 20 gear is essentially better but currently most of the strength of gear comes from enchants + lvl10 gear is a lot easier to acquire and enchant you should check (https://ashescodex.com/db/items/gear/armor/chest/page/1?stats=Intelligence&sortColumn=name&sortDir=asc) for gear, there are for example some named mobs that drop bis lvl10 gear
I cannot for the life of me get a single piece of zinc
I'm convinced it's not real at this point lmao
@tight gale is market place listing fees not going to the node treasurey a unintended bug/state of things, or is it a intended feature?
How it s going on guys? servers are up ?
Info is posted here :).
I find it around mountain or hilly areas and sometimes by water. Just have to watch for it. It seems to be harder to see if there is snow. ❄️
Is there a reason why I cant join the PTR?
It is invite only
Only packs with Alpha-1 access has access to the PTR
Ohh, I see 🥲
There aren't any PTR servers up right now either
Thanks
You really have to frequent areas that aren't trafficked to get it. But I can verify it does in fact exist.
hey there people, Is there any way to download the game through the launcher during realms downtime? I just bought access and I am stumped. Please forgive me if that's a stupid question 🙂
Nah they tend to like to update only when it's up
Thanks for your reply 🙂 So I can't install anything before realms are back up? I have to install the whole thing, when testing starts? Damn... with my download rate I'm losing precious time 😄
Well if it makes you happy people with fresh installs are known to patch faster than those that don't
anny one know when the maintenense is done ?
Do we know when the servers will be back Up?
I jumped on Pantheon for the time being
@small prawn @potent ferry This post shows the start of the next 5-day test in your local timezone: #alpha-two-news message
All servers are down for maintenance and won't be back until Thursday
The servers are down for maintenance
Find the file and delete it
Thats not how most apps works
Launcher just won't connect with servers down. Best way would be to use windows control panel and Uninstaller
They have registry hooks too
I don’t think you can access the actual uninstall until the launcher is up
I tried finding ashes in apps, but its not there
Didnt think to look for uninstaller in the path
Looking now
Yeah not finding anyway to uninstall, wtf
Why not just go into the file directory and delete it 
Thats not how applications work dude lol
For storage space it is
Yeah let me just leave hooks in my registry for no reason
I answered the storage space question 
Click the uninstall button 
I cant get to that screen
Pls halp, trolls need not apply
Wait 2 days for the download servers to be back online so you can login and uninstall

"Intrepid Studios Launcher" is the name I believe.
If you say yes, it will remove everything
Ok ty
Make the bug where you stand on your mount a rare animation that happens sometimes 😦
This is super helpful ty!!!!
I have a Beta 2 key, but I can't use it. I don't know how to activate it on the website and download the launcher. Please tell me how to do it.
We are only in the alpha 2 phase currently. You don't need to activate your key, just wait until that's phase comes online then you can download and log in. Beta is a long long time away and beta 2 is right before launch
So does that mean Beta 2 cannot be used during the Alpha 2 phase? I purchased it in January 2022 for $75. Does that mean this key cannot be used right now? Is it unrelated to Alpha 2?
Yes it's not beta yet
You can log in and upgrade to an a2 key if you wish but an alpha is a unfinished buggy mess of a testing ground. It's not supposed to even be near a finished product until beta. If you don't like things crashing and items getting borked and you characters bricked you might want to wait
Also is currently maintenance and you wouldn't be about to dl and play on the alpha servers until they are back up
So, to experience Alpha 2, do I need to purchase the Alpha 2 Second Wave bundle again?
Many Korean players are eagerly waiting for this game. Is there any plan for a Korean translation?
Alpha 2 second wave is not beta. If you have the alpha 2 wave 3 you have to wait until that's part is open
Translations aren't happening anytime soon
Since it's still being developed
But the website says that the Alpha 2 Second Wave bundle will start from Friday, December 20, 2024.
I think you can upgrade your key to the alpha 2 second wave. (This will give you access now ). Well, when servers come up.
You will have to pay to upgrade. You should have the option in your account.
Is the server open all the time, or is it only open at specific times?
It’s up 5 days a week and down for 2. Give or take.
Thursday-Monday up.
Tuesday - Wednesday down.
Thank you so much for your answers!
Currently the planned languages are English, French, German, Russian, Italian, Polish, Spanish, and Portuguese, but more languages might be added in the future. For example, Spanish originally wasn't on the list, but was added later on
Steven has recently spoke about regions other than NA/EU potentially having publishers, so it's entirely possible if Ashes does well, it could be published in Korea by a Korean publisher and translated
When will secondary classes be added to the game?
Plan is some time later this year they will "start" to be adding, starting with the Cleric and Tank secondaries
Is the Ashes Market 3rd party website allowed?
Or is it illegal to use technically?
It's a site someone posted on the Ashes subreddit, where you can see items from all the player markets from each node. Not sure if it works
wait, i thought people had to manully enter their entries, how would they even have access to game marketplace database/info?
Hi, which channel should i use to talk to a mod? Or should i dm?
You can DM or @ them here.
Thank you
These are manually added by players. It’s not scrubbing the data.
So players are manually adding their items on the site? It's not pulling it from the game?
Theres like 10 items on the site bro, what do you think
What? There's like over 100 items there
If it was scrubbing the game data it would be filled with 1000s of items
We looking at the wrong site link, mate
Have you been to the ingame market?
Yes
There's 1,000 items on this site.
Bros looking at all servers and thinks its a lot of items.. cmon man
I was just making sure we're looking at the same website. Why did you say there's only 10 items?
When there's clearly way more
The only thing that is CLEAR is that it doesn’t pull items from in game
Is rogue coming soon_
Depends how you define soon. It's planned to come sometime before the end of P2 (May 1)
screams
It's currently undergoing testing occasionally on the PTR, but it's lacking most VFX/SFX and animations are actively being worked on
was recently said in an interview that it was before the end of February, but who knows.
Steven said all items will be tradable. but this item isnt tradable 😢 since it's been removed from the market i havent tested if i can sell it since then, but sadness.
anyways. anyone knows if that will be a thing?
also should untradable items have "this item cannot be traded" tag?
I wonder what happens if you go corrupt, naked, with just a Santa hat on. Will it drop? 🤷🏻♂️ more testing required. 🎅
one way to find out.
is it worth it to buy the alpha two second wave now or shold i wait for third wave
depends on if you'd like to learn the game and prepare to what you'll be expecting in the game. get to know some of the community of whichever server you end up in.
most people are having a blast from my point of view
Does anyone know when they will add more potions to alchemy?
When a skill like Ranger's Barrage skill says "requires: ranged weapon" to use,
Does that mean I can cast Barrage using a wand or a staff?
how difficult does bard feel compared to the other archs, i havent leveled one yet but i played a bard on ff14 and it has a nice playstyle for me and feels simple
AoC bard is not simple
Yes, I do it all the time
Rogue and summoner are not yet available to test in Alpha 2.
How does it look visually? Are you just holding a staff up like you're about to cast magic, but rapid arrows shoot forward out of it?
It just shoots out of your wand lmao
That's funny, but it's good that they allow that
how long does it take to get answer regarding an support ticket? @obsidian knoll <@&519722995778977812> <@&542059693779058748>
10pm for them right now. Anecdotal feedback is that response times currently are around a week. They only respond M-F during normal west coast business hours. Sometimes during holidays or long periods of no support the backlog can go higher. This channel is for those from the community to answer questions. While developers rarely respond here, they do sometimes. Good luck.
thank you
Hey guys, did you hear about ⭐️ citizen?
League of legends is my guilty pleasure but this convo isn’t meant for questions channel so I’m dipping.
What is the TF game?
is this game at least better than New World so far?
Depends, what you want from it?
pvp
Yeah definitely depending on the server you’re on
Imo the combat here is better but it’s subjective so
thank god i will buy when servers go back up then
i just need something better than spamming OPR in new world and 3v3 arenas. i refuse to go back to wow, for now at least lol
as long as its slightly more exciting than that, im in
This is similar to Archeage if you ever played.
the difference between wave 2 and wave 3 keys is like 10 bucks, right? if yes then sure go on buy it, but i highly recommend to make a new character on the new servers once wave 3 starts in may
Is that… is that a capybara?
Does anyone know how to start the event in Carphin that drops the grass stained pants ?
@icy torrent as long as it makes me feel like pvp did when new world aeternum did when it dropped im good. just searching for that feeling again..
cant really help you since i only played the og new world
the difference is that PVP is always on and it has consequences (unlike in new world). so in new world people would just kill each other if they could, here its not like that at all
That sound like high risk/reward pvp and i am here for it! will i have much trouble as a new player who is seasoned in mmos getting into a pvp active group?
well ye the creators are aiming to bring high risk/reward...or at least to make you consider the risk vs reward aspect of multuple activities. im not sure what you mean by this question...? like if you want you can straight up go and kill someone, but they might come after you with 3-4 friends after that.
also read up how the player flagging and corruption system works, if youre into PVP
https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Player_flagging
Will i have trouble finding a group to pvp with as a new player i what i meant
There’s plenty of guilds doing PvP
good deal
Join a guild, then you'll be fine
Also play on Lyneth, Vyra sucks
Unless you aren't in the US then RIP
ok thanks! im pretty excited to join everyone
Why does vyra suck ?
Barely any journeyman stations, rampant griefing, exploiting, rapidly dying
Oh wish I knew this a week ago lol
I hope they make it tradeable. I picked up extras to put onto alts and can't move them over. :(( also the base sanctus bag can't trade (I use 3 hunting bags now and don't need it anymore, but can't trade it away)
any ideas for getting the game map unstuck?
ive tried everything i can think of to get it unstuck. resize the settings, reset hud, windowed/unwindowed etc game. nothing lets me grab it away
"I don't need it"
Wait until you go to do processing and need fuel
Close the game, log back in fixed it for me.
Have had this happen only once so far though, maybe the bug has evolved 😄
It happened to me once before, but I was able to grab it and pull it back down. I don't know how I even got it up so high in the first place LOL
gotcha ty, i mostly lean toward simple supports so i appreciate the answer! hopefully bard archetype as a secondary might be more towards my style of play when they mention it in the future
If all you want to be is a mana battery that occasionally throws heals, it is fairly simple. If you want to play it to its full potential it gets complicated.
Hi my friend (@tawdry temple) has been having issues with getting their Intrepid launcher to work and we've been trying a lot of different things from forums ect. Anyway, we've been trying to make sure everything Intrepid/Ashes of Creation is removed before attempting a fresh install and have been having issues getting these to files to delete, when we try the following error code comes up, 0x80004002
Does anyone have a similar issue to this that can help?
by the look of the internet explorer icon in the images your friend is running a very old version of windows. make sure they have a machine that is capable of running the minimum specs for the game

they're using windows 10 and use Chrome as their browser, i don't know why the file icon is Internet explorer
Hi im back Groggy :)
Since the game is scheduled to come up tomorrow, it might be best to wait until then to use the launcher to "uninstall" the bits, and fresh install.
valid call
they are trying to open a folder called file://AAtesting.... from what looks like a browser
Your install wasnt the issue as far as I can recall.
Your monitor/something about displays was where you were stuck. Something was affecting the install button not being able to be clicked. It was greyed out for you.
Did you get the game installed after this message?
There is nothing you can do while the game is down. Trying to piece uninstall may even make it worse now.
Yeah, Nat was just trying some stuff since it came up, I hadnt really tried anything past looking at what was left in the files
still havnt got a response on my ticket
so I guess we are just waiting atm
Likely this issue isnt a game issue tho, its related to your system. They may not be able to specifically help you.
Your monitor issues were an inidcation something is wrong with your set up. I would start there.
Once the game is back up, log into the launcher, dont worry about the Install of the game yet. Uninstall everything from the launcher. Then reinstall the launcher fresh. Does that make the install button active?
That was where you were stuck. There is something about your system that is causing this. : (
Hey peeps, where do I check when the servers are gonna be back up?
Any rogue news yet? 😅
nope
The fact that this is showing the Explorer icon for files, is sus. This usually indicates a problem with file association or the icon cache, meaning your system isn't correctly identifying the file type and its associated program.
That is something you can look at. Its odd. And since this system is already having issues, who knows, could be related.
yeah thought it was very weird too,
when servers are up again im gonna have them boot their pc in safe mode and try deleting those files again (if they're still there 🫠 )
When do servers go back up? im new sorry
Around 24 hours from now
This channel will have updates on server times.
You need to link your discord account to your ashes one so you can get alpha 2 role in discord.

Hi, can I pre install the game while the alpha is currently down?
No, every uptime has a new iteration that is put out just before it opens. There is no predownload.
ah dang, how big roughly is the download?
60gigish
ah oke ty
any word on rogue release yet?
You need to have 100gb free
i need it now!
Yes, when it comes out
ah np ty
anybody know how to effecientally farm SB gear / Emblems with a full 25 party? Sewers? Boss rotation? Another area?
Plans for a duel system? Just for friendly fights.
Yes

Are you jaded or is this a real thing? I saw a few streamers on Vyra, do you have any Youtubers or anyone that shows off the other realm? I'm brand new so that's why I asked the first question
No this is 100% genuine, Vyra had problems because several guilds of "hardcore" zergs purposefully sabotaged towns and refused to build things or built the wrong stuff on purpose for a long time, and the server is now crippled as a result of it
Wait, I think I heard of those, Polar, right? I saw their ad and it made me cringe a bit when I saw the ' We don't play the game, we own it '
Lyneth has Journeyman for:
- Lumberjacking
- Lumbermilling
- Carpentry
- Mining
- Metalworking
- Weaponsmithing
- Armorsmithing
- Herbalism
- Weaving
- Tailoring
- Hunting
- Animal Husbandry
And Stonemasonry will be up next reset, and Arcane Engineering is ready but blocked by a weird bug with building demolition that's hopefully to be resolved soon
Vyra has like half of this, if that
That's insane, so, if I'm from the U.S would Lyneth still be good for me? I noticed you said something up above about that
It's also where the bulk of the people that got banned/reset for exploiting and other issues were
Not all of them, mind
But a lot of them
Which isn't surprising given that three of the big guilds there are just wannabe hardcore griefer-zergs and at least one is doing RMT
And yeah Lyneth is fine, both are US Central
Actually, from that list, I think Vyra is just missing Weaponsmith/Armorsmith/Weaving.
Arcane Engineering comes up shortly (was just voted in).
The servers are in fairly similar places.
Vyra also probably puts weaponsmith in voting next week
Also weird fanfic that Polar was sabatoging our town when Miraleth has been one of the most progressed cities since launch :^)
Let them have their larp man. Vyra bad, Lyneth good.
exploiting outside of reporting exploits is a wild thing to do in an alpha you paid 100dollars minimum for lol
Have a question for bard pvp: what is the best weapons I should be running? I know wand was nerfed and not sure if I go longbow or spell book
Great spellsword and Spellbook
Are the servers down?
Hey folks, is there a page that lists up and down times? just curious what time tomorrow servers will go up
Right here Buddy!
Hi
is that right?
I’d recommend a bug report
Yarp
when is the servers back up
check news
gee thanks why didnt i think off that

To be fair, telling people to read is a necessity in this server.
if i didnt read it why would i be in here im just lost cause i have no clue when the servers are coming back online😂
Is it good yet?
yes just order a Ryzen 7 5700X3D soo yes it is good 😉
nice i have the same cpu, bought it before alpha 2
im not good at navigating discord. what do i need to do in order to acces all teh alpha 2 and alpha 2 voice channels
iv already connected discord to my account
In the Befallen Forge video it looks like all the spellbooks are in tact and looking normal, but typically for me the spellbook is visually totally broken. Is it just me, or do you all also see a broken spellbook mesh?
maybe it was a different type of spellbook?
https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Spellbooks#List_of_spellbooks
Do you have a picture of it to show? I think the ones I’ve seen are alright, but you made me doubt my vision now 😅
It's been all 4 spellbooks I've used the entire time I've been playing : P
I donty have a pic now
Most I’ve seen look like this
But I don’t use them myself as I main fighter.
Is the one you use bugged or are everyones books bugged?
If you haven’t already then you should report it as a bug through typing /bug in the chat in game. Theres an option to add a screenshot of the bug to go with the report.
Then all you can do is just wait until they have a chance to look into it.
Everyone's is bugged.
I have made a bug report but I'm confused because it would be really strange if it's only on my client and no one else.
It's so sad too because the spell books look awesome!
Hmm. Well I hope you’re not the only one then
how does demolishing a building work? is it still useable while its being demolished? or does it get turned off?
Don't forget step #2 in #read-me-first
Server up at noon right?
6 hours left
feb stream announcement when ?
Does dyes for armour exist yet?
Stream has consistently been the last Friday of the month. (there have been a couple exceptions) They usually announce exactly one week out. So you got a day or two to wait.
ok so I misscalculated 😄 thanks 😄
servers are back up in 5 hours or so?
Plus Minus 2 Hours HAHA

Rouge today?
Any advices for my first character ? xd
@steep burrow you just starting today too?
Yep
me too just waiting on the servers...from everything ive seen mage looks like a good bet
Nice, see you there
spellbow mage looks hella cool
patch notes wen?
@lone sable that probably what ill be doing. @tame tide are healers plentiful?
Best to play alone? xd
hunter probably.
Haha! Are healers plentiful. Absolutely, not!
Always LF Cleric LF Cleric.
Tank and Cleric - most saught after (On Lyneth)
i cant wait till more 2nd arch info is up. like if going fighter/mage means fighter abilities get an element of ur choosing id be so happy lol
i either wanna do mountain thane fury warrior vibe or have something with similar aesthetic of dragonknight from eso
Tigru - all the classes are strong. I think the most fun to play is fighter / ranger. I think the most useful and easy to get groups for is tank / cleric.
Personally I don't like the ranger animations - so I stopped playing mine. But if you can get past the VFX then it's super fun.
what would you rate tank usefulness in pvp, i might play tank just to be like frontline support in pvp fights
but if fighter dps has more impact then id go that route
if you want to take dumps on people in 1v1 fights and you're solo probably snag bard (at least for now)
If you learn how to fighter well, and have high level micro, fighter is SUPER strong.
You need to learn spacing though - because their weakness is exposed in the current lvl 10 enchant meta.
in wow i play fury warrior and it melts ppl but also has good utility for teamfights. im hoping fighter will be similar
Yea - it is.
I played 2h Fury in vanilla. You will love the fighter (even more)
It's like if Blizzard made that it's own class haha
Tanks in PvP. They aren't gonna do much on their own at high level play, but in a small group it can be strong.
I think Bard is really strong if you want a utility class that's also really powerful in PvE
what can i do with 1750 embers on my account again boys?
so 1 hour 10min left?
nothing yet

groggy ur the man, ty for the help today brother
servers are back up at 1300 today correct?
@lone sable nice bro lol
is lyneth a pretty good server?
i heard its more for pve players
i thoughtthe vyra realm was more for pve players?
vyra is the detroit server
Yeah its a great server, especially if you are new. Tons of pvp, especially between the major guilds, while also having cooperation between the nodes. Nodes are more upgraded than vera, better gear and stuff can be crafted
what is vryra known for? im an hour away from detroit
darn now i feel like i shortchanged myself with starting on vyra, im not a super big pvper
hi all, what's the best EU/UK server for pvp/pve?
there is only 1 EU server.. sooo :D)
i honestly didnt know aswell so i went with lyneth, lucky pick lol
that's great actually haha saves the headache
so which one is the pvp server boys lol
vyra it sounds like
both pvp is an intergral part of the game
if u search vyra in the discord, more of em are saying its the pvp server
ok ty
would be cool if ashes would put something on the server when you hover it like "For x audience" or "More likely to encounter x y z"
Vyra = more pvp hard core guilds, more toxic players, more exploiting, but more pvp action for sure. And busier overall.
Lyneth = Still lots of pvp, 2 big main guilds, less toxic players overall, less exploiting.
like pve, rp, pvp, crafting etc
There is no distinction bc this is player driven.
And it can change over time
damn i assumed being that "the big streamers" played on lyneth, vyra was going to be less tocis lol
ya but i was reading lyneth had better crafting cause nodes being more upgraded
but ur right
It does, but Vyra isnt far behind tbh.
ok then im staying
This is a nothing burger. The "Large streamer" doesnt even play. Its just large guilds. and there are lots of large guilds on both servers.
word so its a pointless conversation and just play the game
make toons on both? No real big diff. Its a test, so test away.
👍
Hi! Are the servers still down?
they just extended downtime by 30 min

Does anyone have any recommendatiosn interm of settings to use? I know you can change them can't you in the /local/ file.
thanks!
Im not sure what you mean? Do you mean game graphic settings?
does the game have macros and wheres a good place to go to see all the macro options
no macros. You can use keybinds, some have success with things that way but I dunno.
gotcha
I was having weird things where siometimes a higher res was giving me better frames etc, but someone said to change settings in the config file, as it isn't always set on 100% gpu usage or something
What’s the best way to find a guild to join if I’m just now getting into alpha?
whats the path to said config file?
Why we can't patch yet 😐
post in the alpha two chat for the server you're going to be on
@late narwhal
\AppData\Local\AOC\Saved\Config\WindowsClient
Preciate it
servers up?
nou
not yet.
You should link your discord to your ashes account. Then you can see the server status updates
https://discord.com/channels/256164085366915072/908174013346508870 Step 3
I did that yesterday .. lol i'll go check again lol
you dont seem to have the role, if it didnt work, unlink it, and then redo it in an incognito window or diff browser
thanks doing that now as I was "connected" 🙂
Just switch! Play a new class, try some new content, it's Alpha, nothing is permanent.
possibly my brother in law plays on the same server and he found a bunch of sweet gear so he wont wanna switch
anyone know when rogue is coming out
negative but what does PVX mean? its a new term in not familiar with
ahhh awesome thank you
nope still working on it
gear is very easy to find. Esp at lower levels
so if your farming and wanting gear drops, what type of mobs should i be farming?
nothing at patchlogs, awesome
Nice updates...
@idle siren Is this allowed in AOC for macos?
You do realize that other things happen during downtime right? That you dont see. Techy nerd stuff most people wouldnt even understand.
depends on lvl, humanoids are best. Goblins, humans, sometimes ghosts, depends on areas. Some places better than others
No rogue in February, steven nice job
no kind of macro is allowed and this is not a place to ask steven so dont expect a answer from him
Is that in the TOS?
why u asking that ? shame
Its in the wiki with quotes from Intrepid staff.
"Macros. The developers are opposed to the uses of macros in Ashes of Creation. Their intention is for players to be able to play their characters without requiring macros. Macros may also pose a challenge in terms of distinguishing automated behavior from the likes of script users and botters."
is boneyard bridage still broken lol ?
No idea, try and turn it in and see?
doing that now
sometimes after a reset of servers, quests go bonky and you have to abandon them and redo them. Not sure if that will help
ill just accept it on my alt and see lol i didint accept it on there
yea it might work then, dunno, I know i have redone, abandoned and redone again, many quests esp in the starting area.
Wiki isn't by Intrepid staff, it's a fan project. They just take everything that Intrepid says and posts it there with sources/links to the original quote
pretty good xp on that quest too so mine aswell see lol
hmmm I was under the impression one of those orange guys on the right did it (or oversaw it)
But I believe you! ;D)
also have these numbers on the screen always been there? why are they showing my screen at all lol very trasnparent any one else have that
im assuming its the client numbers but why are they allover the screen now
You can read about known issues here: #alpha-two-news message
yeah already read that lol
It's a bug, and that watermark has NOT been on the screen previously for Alpha Two.
Team is aware. We posted about it under known issues here: #alpha-two-news message
i didint see it on the discord just the browser thanks lol
I just tried to turn in and nothing happened.
Bro why is everything so bright?
whats the best race for mages?
Races are purely cosmetic choose what you like
anyone else having a blackscreen->close to desktop when trying to launch the latest build? worked fine on Monday :\
I can change brightness? it s too much light 😦
is there a release date for the rouge class?
When it's ready
No
just waiting for to come out at this point
I can change brightness? it s too much light
Like flash bang all white? Or just you don't like the brightness
Like the brightness
i have it loading to a black screen and then crashing
If it's not in the settings then me with your monitor brightness
I did the linked thing and it worked, but I had to restart and repair like 10 times and also deleted everything in appdata for it
linked thing?
Yeah there's are a couple different ways to fix
Which is why I just link
doing god's work @arctic sky
Thanks
It's a common bug people get
is not my settings.. because other games are ok..
Yeah it's an alpha. If you can't find it in the settings you'll just have to mess with your monitor brightness.
like this :))
Lol that's the flash bang
Yes, few times
What's you graphic setting at
When I click to start the game, it opens and the black window appears, and it doesn't come out, does anyone know how to solve it?
I know lowering it or raising it fixes it someone's
That’s a common issue for people in that specific zone. Just walk outside the building
Better PC??
How do ride my horse?? It’s in my inventory but nothing is happening
Drop it down and see if it fixes if not bring it up one
Click on it in inventory ( it put it on bar) then when it's summoned you intact with it to mount
Put it on your action bars and click on it
It's a known issue with a fix not a PC problem unless it's on a hdd
Just Change Ur graficsettings to high or low at a specific topic
How tf do I do that 🤣🤣
Don’t use Medium its also buggy on me
Click on it in inventory (or put it on bar) then when it's summoned you intact with it to mount
You drag and drop
And you can unlock your bar by clicking the tiny unlock button
Hello, I came up with this code all around my screen when playing the game, any ideas on how to fix it?
Black screen lasted a little longer before crashing, but still having an issue after suggsted fix
You wait for the patch that fixes it
Lol you are filtering
Known issue don't worry about it
Did you try both?
oh thank you, no. I forgot about the second. I will try that now
drag it onto your action bars at the bottom. Unlock them by clicking the teeny padlock bottom left.
You can even keybind it if you want
o just saw the filtering
exact same for me
It's a known bug ignore it
read the patch notes in News
If you cant bc you dont have the alpha 2 role and access
