Hey guys,

Im new to the game, just wondering if there are any good Powerleveling guides I can rely on?

Appreciated, thanks!


I just use GM commands to skip to max level ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Joking aside, what ShadonSol said ;)

ShadonSol

Welcome, we just headed out of Alpha1 and no release date is known yet. There's also no public playtest available currently. I suggest you join the Discord server if you're interested in receiving the latest news!

I, too, want to live out my fantasy of being a (not a furry, before anyone suggests it) werewolf. Tulnar here I come!

But.. Then again.. The Niküa are so cool...

Story is definitely important to the team and the game. The game's lore is based off of many, many years of story development done by Steven. We have an awesome team of writers who have taken that foundation of lore from Steven and have begun developing it into something epic!

Also, since you mentioned WoW, Ashes of Creation will also have expansions that will surely have story and lore developments, I imagine ;) https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Expansions

I get what you're asking for Jesmotguin, potentially the game's phone app will give you this.

EDIT:
to be clear, I say this because multiple people (me included) requested in-game chat integration in this Dev Discussion: https://forums.ashesofcreation.com/discussion/51119/guild-gathering-8-app-integrations



Haha, I was going to say exactly this until I reached the bottom of the thread and read this comment. Many people suggested this feature with the app integration topic as @maouw said. I sent that information to the designers and they'll take it from there and decide what to do!

Just know you're not alone in that request OP :)

Identity of the Tank is to:
[list]
[*] be a threatening presence to the enemy
[*] engage the enemy on the front line
[*] absorb damage(and other stuff) on behalf of the team
[/list]



Interesting!

So, with that being said on Tank identity, I'd ask - *should* Tanks have an effective taunt ability in PvP at all, or is their identity as a Tank strong and potent enough in PvP that it doesn't require it? Good topic!

Don't suppose the old artwork is around anywhere for us to enjoy? Your artists are that talented that it'd be a shame to have missed out on anything they've done.



Nerror

What he said @LieutenantToast ! I mean I had noticed the changing backgrounds, but I never really thought to properly appreciate them, and now I feel sad I never did. The one from last month, that was the dunir city you also posted on twitter right? I assumed it to be, but never actually did the whole right-click and open image in new tab thing.



So we also share the high-res versions of these pics with the wiki team each month, and if you check out the recent artwork section here, you c... Read more

Someone finally noticed!!!!!!! <3 <3 <3 So we actually change our background images/cover photos on every social media platform each month (new Twitter banner, Discord background, etc.), and the forum background is also updated to match that! For the most part they are from recent concept art that we've shared :smiley:

Hope you'll enjoy them now that you've noticed them :wink:

I think the beauty of MMORPGs and Ashes of Creation by nature is that they can often be played in drastically different ways by different players. For example, I know some people who have put thousands of hours into WoW and all they do is RP, where as all I do is raid and PvP.

I think a way to look at this situation is to think of and explore all the different ways you can enjoy the game and it's many systems with your particular schedule and lifestyle :)

I’d say I agree with the counters here but can anyone tweak it to make it work instead of shoot it down? How has it failed before and what could be changed to make it work?

To start, maybe some of the skill passes over as a baseline for other skills. So.. you start a little higher with swords even though you’ve never used one, because you’re really good with axes (hand weapons in general).

IMO.. The new content should be hard when it first drops!



I think as Noaani suggested, it'd be better as an addition to the levelling system, rather than a replacement. I remember in the Guild Wars expansion Nightfall, the further along the main questline you were, or the more of a certain type of enemy you killed, the better your Rank in the Sunspear Title Track, and as your rank got higher, you'd get a bonus to your damage against the main questline en...

Very interesting! I hope that every server naturally has plenty of RP players, if I'm being honest. Thankfully there are already large Ashes of Creation RP communities that are being built up and recruiting. We will have to see what kind of impact those communities have as the game progresses in development. I find the idea of having an RP friendly tag on servers just making it so players know that that server might have more like-minded players very interesting, though!

I remember when paying $15/mo for WoW a decade ago was certainly not cheap to me at the time. Now I pay like $18/mo for Netflix as well I think?? I know I play way more games than I watch Netflix haha.
