So, I am somewhat curious as to why Roshen hasn't voted in the poll.

Would you believe it's because I'm shy? 🙃

Certainly a comprehensive and interesting design! I'm glad to see other folks in here adding their thoughts and feedback to your ideas! Great conversation, everyone!

You're in luck! As others have pointed out here, Italian is a planned supported language ^_^ You can read more about it on our support page, here: https://support.ashesofcreation.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016194714-What-languages-will-Ashes-of-Creation-be-in-

Very neat quest ideas! I'd love to see what other quest ideas you all can come up with :)

Just when I was about to harvest the crops on my Freehold, the node triggered a Frost Dragon. Now it's snowing and icy. I fear for my plants and the Gibbering Maws have come out in full force. My npc's keep shooing them away and my Mule keeps slipping on the ice. Ugh... now I have to go help fight the beast and I'm still wearing my summer gardening clothes. Never a dull moment on our side of Verra!

Indeed! In Verra I have come to expect the unexpected.

Nothing boosts engagement like 'being able to see who disagrees with you at a glance', amirite?

I assume this comes with an option to change your vote then?

I don't see an easy way to change the vote after you made it.

Hopefully how people vote regarding hard hitting questions like "how is the weather" doesn't result in too many disagreements, and "private polls" might be better for public forum polls in the future.

First poll?

Who could say for certain 🙃

For me personally (and I'm not sure why) when I think of grinding, my immediate thought goes to harvesting for crafting. Going out and 'grinding' for herbs, pelts, ore, etc.

I'm not sure if I can think of another MMO that I felt did this aspect of grinding resources perfectly... I feel each that I've played has done well and not well with this.

For me, I think open-world PvP will create an element to grinding resources that makes it more engaging :)

My thoughts on hijacking ships ARRR 🏴‍☠️ as follows 😜:

Y'all better watch your backs out there because I'll be hunting for booty and I'll hijack whoever I need to for it 😈

While we have decided not to talk about our security measures publicly for security reasons, I can assure you that we will have robust systems and plans in place to combat bots, hackers, and other security concerns :)

You can read more on it here, on the wiki!

I can't wait to see Alpha-Two PvP and combat tests! I'll be watching you from the shadows 😈

What kind of combat scenarios do you plan on doing? 🤔

@Lex to the rescue! 👐

I'm excited to see people who love PvP experience open-world PvP for the first time when Ashes of Creation releases!

Do you all have any fun or interesting open-world PvP stories to share?

Hello glorious community,

Let’s start a discussion on the Enchanting system! If you haven’t heard of it yet, feel free to read more about the mechanics we’ve shared so far here: https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Enchanting

In a nutshell, Enchanting in Ashes of Creation allows for the vertical and horizontal progression of items. Vertical progression is an increase in power like more damage or increased mitigation for example. Horizontal progression is your situational advantage for instance doing force damage instead of holy damage because the monsters you're fighting are weaker to one over the other. Enchanting is one of the services that a player can provide at a player stall. One final thing to note is t... Read more

Nothing beats finding good treasure or a hidden path where you least expect it (or perhaps in this case, where you expect it most 🤔😊

In addition to secret waterfall passages, what else do you hope to find and where would you hope to find it in Verra? ^_^

Very neat idea! I especially liked some of the examples you provided!

This is a feature I had always hoped to see in Sea of Thieves :sweat_smile:

What ship names can you all think of for your ships in Verra?

Yeah, in Everquest 2 I used Monk. Loved Monk. It would be nice for both versions especially while combat revamp is underway (no pressure IS lol).

I'm generally a monk player in MMOs that offer it, as well!

Seeing martial arts in Ashes of Creation would certainly be cool! However, I can assure you that nothing in that image, between my exposed armpits or Margaret's fistful of fingers, has any hints or confirmations for Ashes of Creation 😅

The corruption system and designing a system around player intent certainly poses quite the challenge for our design team.

This thread has been a great deep dive into an interesting interpretation of how this system could work! Great conversation, everyone 😃

I like where your head is at with this idea! We know immersion is important to our players but I wonder how this would work! I'm no game designer, but I wonder if this would go too far in the direction of anti-"game-y" gameplay 🤔

It's so cool to think about persistence and making long-lasting impacts on the world of Verra. It's something I look forward to when placing my freehold :) I wonder what other unique and immersive gameplay ideas you can think of!
