Ashes of Creation Dev Tracker

Does anyone remember what type of node this one is?
I remember the raiding node was an economic node, but this one...?

You all chose to head to the scientific village back in Chapter Eight! And now look at how far you've come <3

Our quick thinking and swift actions have lured away the colossal quarrior! With the scales and gem fragments left behind in the chaos, we could surely make a tidy sum by selling them to our neighboring nodes.

What should we do with the gold?
🤑 Fill our own personal bank
💰 Replenish the village’s coffers

Glorious Ashes community - we're excited to continue our new series called Guild Gatherings! Guild Gathering topics are a "reverse Q&A" similar to our Dev Discussions, where we ask you about your thoughts on everything related to guilds.

Our team has compiled a list of questions we'd love to get your feedback on regarding guild tools, gameplay, your previous experiences, and more. Join in on our Guild Gatherings and share how your gaming family is special to you!

:O BEFRIEND IT!!!

Errr good luck with that...she seems pretty upset already considering she thinks you stole something from her baby >>

Barbecue

I wonder how the beast tastes like. Probably it's really yummy.
We can make a big BBQ party, since it's huge. :*

How do you plan to get past that rock-hard exterior?!

GodIsHereForU

I'm usually all blood and carnage... but that is the cutest f***ing thing i have ever seen in this game so far.

Even when it's 50 feet tall and angry?!

As we finish fusing the jewel’s power into our sword, a low whine begins to resound, cascading into an earth-trembling roar. Bursting upwards in a cloud of dirt, a colossal quarrior has tunneled into town! Your gem appears to be a strikingly similar yet smaller version of those that dot its armored surface. Perhaps you’ve made a mother mad...

How do we handle the quarrior?
💪 Attack the beast head on
🎣 Lure it away from the village

But, what's "latent essence" supposed to mean?

The essence is what helps shape what could be considere... Read more

Glorious Ashes community - it's time for another Dev Discussion! Dev Discussion topics are kind of like a "reverse Q&A" - rather than you asking us questions about Ashes of Creation, we want to ask YOU what your thoughts are.

Our design team has compiled a list of burning questions we'd love to get your feedback on regarding gameplay, your past MMO experiences, and more. Join in on the Dev Discussion and share what makes gaming special to you!


Dev Discussion #29 - Mentoring
What kinds of tools or rewards most encourage you to become involved in a mentorship program, either as a mentor or mentee?

Keep an eye out for our next Dev Discussion topic regarding crafting!

Hi again everyone! Thank you so much for taking the time... Read more

The one with the sword was responsible for chasing down the rogue and recovering the gem, so... they should probably get the weapon.

Why can't someone as generous and thoughtful about loot as you are be in every party we play in 🤣

With our blacksmith complete and our weapon smithing skills up to par, we discover that our precious jewel is a potent source of latent essence that we can use to bolster our power! Grateful to have uncovered its purpose, we’re faced with yet another decision - what do we make with this gem?

What should we do with the jewel?

⚔ Create a magnificent sword
🏹 Craft a glorious bow

Hiya frands! Thank you for sharing your notes here on what you'd like to see on a login screen - providing you that kind of information can definitely be helpful in making sure you have a smoother gameplay experience overall!

Would love for more folks to elaborate on what interesting/off-the-wall ideas you had for OP's suggestion of "something to do while waiting" 🤔 (though I'd say the hope is that you won't have to spend too much time doing that 🤣)

Hiya! Just a couple of quick notes here - first, the cosmetic pets/mounts that have been released are variants of creatures that will be visible in-game, such as NPCs you may be fighting! These NPCs may have a variety of different looks and styles based on the environment they're located in and other factors (so there's not necessarily a "base" version), and the version available as a cosmetic would then only be available as a skin in that regard. These creatures are all ones that are needed to populate Verra anyways, so offering a version in the Shop works in tandem with creating other versions for in-game!

In addition, here's a bit more on what we've shared as our plans for in-game achievable goodies as well:

"Equitable cosmetics, both from a quantity and quality standpoint, are achievable through in-game means. Cosmetics achievable in-game will be on-par, and in the case of legendary skins, even more elaborate than shop items." (... Read more

Oh YAY excited to see you back with another glorious creation! I love the soulful eyes on our large leporine friend 😍

Hope that egg isn't destined to become a giant omelet 😬

Knowledge and learning is better then playing with rocks.

but what if the rocks are ✨ s h i n y ✨

Our successful campaign has won us the mayorship! As we sit down at our post in city hall, a familiar deep orange glint catches our eye from the corner of our desk. With the newfound power of planning in our hands, we could build the services needed to find answers on our jewel.

What building should we construct?

I recall the DEVs saying a upcoming DEV Discussion was going to be on AC vs TT. I want to lay my thoughts out in great detail in that thread.

Indeed, our next Dev Discussion topic is slated to be right up this alley in terms of getting your thoughts on hybrid combat <3 we're looking forward to seeing all your detailed responses in the replies!

"Hold the Line"!

🎶 LOVE ISN'T ALWAYS ON TIIIME...WOAH WOAH WOAH...🎶

Wait sorry was that not what you were going for?

What would I recommend for the future?
Classes page - Example of the abilities of each class, a little GIF/Video of said class.
Lore (Optional)- Dedicated lore section once the game is out
Game Guide - (What the game is, FAQ, Races, Crafting, Housing etc all there) - I separated classes because when you're into an MMO I want to see what classes are available immediately.

We mentioned all of these things in the live stream. ;) (They are coming in future phases! <3 )

As always, listening to your community can be a double-edged sword but I fully believe you have made the right choice for this issue. Special Offer can make a comeback once the game is fully released. :smiley:

As we finish 👊 teaching the local bandits a lesson 👊, we spot a caravan trundling along the road nearby, with its driver seemingly unaware of the brigands closing in on all sides! If we choose to help attack the caravan, we could score even more resources - but if we choose to defend it, the trader might just thank us with a fitting reward.

How do we join in the fray?

⚔ Attack the caravan!
🛡 Defend the caravan!

Hi there!

We are going to be working with the Design Team regarding ALL of the cosmetic options vs which items they can be applied to, and I will provide further information at a future date.

(We know y'all have been asking for this information for awhile. Design is super busy right now working towards our Alpha One milestone, but once they have time to send that information over to me, I will relay that and make sure it's placed some where that is easy to consume - as well as updating information in various places to coincide with it for past items, etc. We appreciate your patience in the meantime! <3 )

I’m sorry, but people like you are not welcome here.

Anyone who loves MMOs and wants to see the world of Verra take shape is more than welcome here <3 Let's please remember to be kind to our new friends here on the forums, and rather than telling them they're not welcome, share with them our vision for Ashes of Creation and why it excites you!
