| 41s | um excited to be here again showing you |
| 44s | guys ashes of creation and its current |
| 46s | progress towards Alpha 2. I have joining |
| 50s | me today to Stellar senior designers on |

| 54s | senior designer Trad and Jeremy how are |
| 57s | you guys doing |
| 59s | I'm doing well I'm just looking forward |

| 71s | we've got this time yes and I my first |
| 75s | my first ah |
| 77s | is of course the world just the |
| 80s | unbelievably beautiful environments that |
| 84s | uh the environment team and the design |
| 86s | team have just come up with with these |
| 89s | ruins and this Forest I mean where where |
| 92s | are we at right now Jeremy |
| 93s | we are in the riverlands and which was |
| 97s | the former heart of the island Empire so |
| 100s | we're among their ruins from a long time |
| 104s | ago after the fall yeah people saw some |
| 106s | of these things |
| 107s | um in the weather and Seasons |
| 111s | um showcase uh so you guys might |
| 113s | recognize this stuff but the alien |
| 115s | Empire that was one of the largest if |
| 117s | not the largest Empire at the town at |
| 119s | the time of the Apocalypse right right |
| 121s | it was at the height of their golden age |
| 124s | when the uh |
| 125s | the fall happened so we are just |
| 128s | standing in their ruins now and it is it |
| 131s | is so cool I always love environments |
| 133s | where |
| 134s | you have |
| 135s | these ancient |
| 138s | almost artifacts and and just locations |
| 141s | that you get to explore |
| 144s | um |
| 145s | it's really compelling yeah is to to |
| 148s | make a living breathing world that's an |
| 150s | actual character of our game Vera should |
| 152s | very much feel like a character that has |
| 155s | so much history and story behind it uh |
| 158s | they're like great fantasy worlds of the |
| 160s | past and other franchises bearish should |
| 163s | very much feel like one of those that |
| 165s | just hearing the name invokes all kinds |
| 167s | of history and character and and living |
| 170s | breathing and and actually a world |
| 172s | that's been in trouble for a long time |
| 174s | now and the players are coming back to |
| 176s | help rescue and recover that I love it |
| 179s | and I also love the fact that Chris |
| 182s | Atkins threw in some slits for this |
| 185s | elf's ears to come through oh my gosh |
| 188s | it's so awesome I feel a lot comfortable |
| 193s | adorable they are adorable this is such |
| 197s | a great outfit |
| 198s | um I'm loving the cape cloth as well |
| 201s | that's very cool so you were mentioning |
| 203s | we are in an area yeah that is uh |
| 206s | relatively dangerous right this is um |
| 209s | these aren't Elite monsters right but |
| 211s | they are still deadly these are looks |
| 215s | like a Minotaur uh Hunting Party war |
| 217s | party that are investigating this area |
| 219s | for some reason it looks like some |
| 221s | Shaman have have come down to this |
| 224s | Riverland area |
| 226s | and they're checking things out and they |
| 228s | have some like guard dogs with them |
| 230s | they've got some drudgers with them |
| 233s | um kind of like reptilian dog kind of |
| 236s | things that are acting as Lookouts and |
| 239s | guards while they're looking around for |
| 241s | things oh no oh I'm walking oh God |
| 250s | hold on one second |
| 252s | Chad what should I do what should I what |
| 254s | what what items or abilities |
| 257s | uh spam two on one of them take that guy |
| 259s | down |
| 261s | all right that was a quick shot right |
| 262s | there |
| 264s | um so quick shot is an ability that has |
| 266s | three charges |
| 268s | um and each shot does more damage than |
| 270s | the last to the Target that you're |
| 272s | attacking you can kind of use it as an |
| 273s | opener Alpha strike kind of ability just |
| 277s | drop somebody it's gonna have that two |
| 279s | back again the quick shot |
| 280s | yep yeah we haven't done like full |
| 284s | cooldown pass on this or anything so you |
| 286s | could pretty much disband right now but |
| 288s | you've got that oh that guy oh God I |
| 290s | have 16 health no no no no |
| 294s | the shaman are not something to mess |
| 296s | with they're they've got that chart how |
| 297s | did we draw so how did I grab so many |
| 301s | they're paying attention okay hold on |
| 304s | yeah you have to be aware of your |
| 307s | surrounding I did not |
| 309s | I was not aware of my surroundings okay |
| 312s | you guys may notice |
| 313s | that I'm not dying right now and I would |
| 316s | just like to comment that the stream |
| 318s | would not be good if I died |
| 322s | trying to fight these things what am I |
| 323s | using here dread |
| 325s | uh that would be snipe |
| 327s | um so unlike quick shot that is an |
| 330s | ability that you can press and hold and |
| 332s | it kind of roots you in place so it's |
| 333s | you gotta you gotta like use that at the |
| 336s | right time but you gotta you do get a |
| 338s | lot of payoff if you can pull off the |
| 339s | whole thing |
| 341s | um so the longer that you charge it uh |
| 343s | the more damage it does I need to get my |
| 345s | some of my health back I I apologize |
| 347s | stream I let me just say that whenever |
| 350s | we do these recordings and I uh am |
| 354s | piloting right I have this very well |
| 357s | thought out outline and plan about how |
| 360s | things are gonna go and somehow |
| 364s | something happens and it just doesn't it |
| 367s | doesn't work I don't know why I think |
| 368s | when Mike Tyson says everyone has a plan |
| 370s | until they're punched in the face right |
| 371s | yeah every now no no plan survives |
| 374s | contact with the Enemy |
| 376s | um but uh so I I didn't I turned on this |
| 379s | cheat code which doesn't let me die if I |
| 381s | fall below one hit point so every time |
| 383s | you see me dropped one hit point know |
| 384s | that I would have normally just died |
| 385s | there and you guys can |
| 387s | um you know take a shot of water or |
| 389s | something |
| 391s | um point for the Minotaur yeah |
| 393s | okay so uh by the way you guys are |
| 397s | seeing where this is early morning here |
| 399s | on the the Varan riverlands |
| 402s | um and you'll see that there's a lot of |
| 404s | weather effects that are happening right |
| 406s | here there's some there's some pollen |
| 408s | because we're in the middle of spring |
| 410s | but it's also early morning so we have |
| 412s | this fog layer that's rolling through |
| 415s | um of course |
| 417s | the Aesthetics of Ashes of creation are |
| 419s | very important we've always said that |
| 420s | game systems makes games funds |
| 424s | um and uh the game environment and the |
| 426s | Aesthetics make it uh make it beautiful |
| 429s | and make it immersive so |
| 432s | um we double down on both of those but |
| 434s | Jeremy talk to me a little bit about |
| 436s | these minotaurs who are these minotaurs |
| 438s | why are they here so these Minotaur well |
| 441s | prior to the fall they were kind of uh |
| 443s | just a nomadic chaotic race they're a |
| 446s | race that really benefited when the the |
| 448s | player races left saying or left |
| 450s | percentage so they in the intervening |
| 454s | time they've gotten stronger they've |
| 456s | kind of found some techniques some help |
| 459s | in some ways from other entities that |
| 462s | aren't friendly so they've they've |
| 464s | really got organized got equipped and |
| 468s | they're kind of actually excited to see |
| 470s | the players come back because they want |
| 472s | some Revenge |
| 473s | so they are looking for ways to uh they |
| 477s | have oral histories and things that tell |
| 478s | of these people that um held them down |
| 481s | and and hunted them and they're uh |
| 484s | they're brutally wanting to exact that |
| 486s | Revenge can I um I'm gonna cheat here |
| 489s | again because I just want to get go up |
| 490s | to them and give people a look at what |
| 492s | these minotaurs look like in the game so |
| 496s | so the terrigora is one of those Clan |
| 499s | clans or tribes uh this one's the the |
| 503s | rain caller who uh has uh Essence that |
| 507s | kind of evokes water he has water |
| 510s | abilities throws water attacks and makes |
| 514s | Shields of of water bubbles around them |
| 517s | this guy is amazing I love the model |
| 521s | work you know Eli's done an amazing job |
| 525s | on these and these are just a shaman |
| 528s | these are kind of the ones that are |
| 531s | Divine and have a little bit of a |
| 535s | connection there there's much bigger |
| 537s | ones much more even scarier ones like |
| 539s | the Marauders and the Berserkers and |
| 541s | even the Khan |
| 543s | oh wow look at that I'm sorry I'm just |
| 546s | looking over in the distance and I see |
| 548s | this this giant like Tower structure |
| 551s | yeah that's the the Tower of Carfin |
| 554s | under a curse that is causing a lot of |
| 558s | problems for the area too oh you're |
| 560s | right actually I think if we approach up |
| 563s | here |
| 564s | we actually cross over into the boundary |
| 567s | of carfen the wreckage of Carfin right |
| 570s | it's like science |
| 571s | and Carfin was a one of the great cities |
| 574s | of the island Empire and it's now and |
| 576s | and |
| 577s | there we go yes |
| 580s | I see it |
| 582s | that my friends that you're seeing off |
| 585s | in the distance is gonna is in Alpha two |
| 587s | obviously |
| 589s | um and Jeremy tell us a little bit about |
| 591s | the tower and it's and what you know |
| 595s | just a little bit not nothing give away |
| 596s | too much but just a little bit about the |
| 598s | tower what is it what is the tower it |
| 601s | was a focus of the the Mages and study |
| 604s | of the alien Empire |
| 606s | Carfin was a city that that kind of had |
| 609s | a great Mage population so it had a |
| 611s | university there |
| 613s | um |
| 614s | and things went bad there during during |
| 617s | the last days of the of fall |
| 619s | um they made some desperate measures and |
| 621s | a really awesome |
| 623s | uh Quest series that um that Scott's |
| 626s | written up and and implementing things |
| 629s | awesome so it's it's going to be a |
| 631s | pretty fun tower that was intended for |
| 635s | many groups to exist within and fight |
| 638s | now track |
| 640s | question |
| 642s | what type of weapon am I guess thank you |
| 644s | what type of weapon am I using here |
| 647s | this would be the Longbow |
| 649s | um so you can kind of tell like when |
| 652s | you're when you're shooting your basic |
| 654s | attack that the shots are a little bit |
| 656s | slower but have more power behind them |
| 659s | um yeah I really like the model that |
| 660s | Atkins threw together for this oh that's |
| 662s | so good the snockets of an Imperium |
| 665s | design |
| 666s | bow makers of the past maybe someone's |
| 670s | remembered the techniques to make it it |
| 672s | looks so good |
| 676s | like go ahead and uh and hold the button |
| 679s | down one thing that we're playing around |
| 681s | with this that we haven't done with our |
| 683s | melee weapons is has a contextual |
| 686s | Behavior based on if you're tapping the |
| 689s | um just you know pressing the the button |
| 690s | versus holding it |
| 692s | um so it kind of like snipe you know you |
| 694s | can actually hold these attacks and |
| 696s | instead of doing just a rapid fire sorry |
| 698s | just Chad one second something happened |
| 701s | these like these little birds just |
| 703s | spawned right near me and they're like |
| 706s | eating on the ground if I move will they |
| 708s | move |
| 710s | I hope so |
| 713s | okay let's see let's find out |
| 716s | Birds |
| 718s | [Music] |
| 719s | how are you just gonna sit here |
| 721s | and let me run around you |
| 725s | what what are they doing they're just |
| 727s | kind of they're eating I guess oh no |
| 729s | okay wait what do you want me to do this |
| 731s | weapon |
| 733s | um hold your Q button and charge up an |
| 737s | attack uh Houston we might have a |
| 739s | problem all right ladies and gentlemen |
| 741s | get your shots of water ready |
| 743s | we may be uh been a little early I'm so |
| 746s | sorry let me see if I can don't worry |
| 748s | I've got it perfect all right sure I |
| 751s | just don't want to give the minute oh |
| 754s | yeah what was that did he charge me he |
| 758s | got him |
| 762s | let's hit me with those water bolts oh |
| 764s | that's kind of cool so I can jump while |
| 766s | shooting this |
| 772s | now just imagine that I have a lot more |
| 774s | Health nobody look at the house don't |
| 777s | look at my house |
| 778s | what are they shooting at Us Jeremy |
| 781s | uh those are from their their casting |
| 784s | this water bowl this really hardened |
| 786s | water that's just slamming into you for |
| 788s | Force damage that hits yeah |
| 792s | that's kind of cool all right Chad I |
| 795s | apologize I am now going to |
| 796s | appropriately engage from the correct |
| 800s | get the jump on them Physicians Okay so |
| 803s | something cool about the longbow oh now |
| 806s | they fly away look at that the birds are |
| 807s | flying |
| 809s | something cool about the Longbow is that |
| 811s | as opposed to the short bow you are able |
| 814s | to actually hold and charge each of the |
| 816s | basic attacks is that correct |
| 819s | yep and doing so what does that do for |
| 822s | the weapon user |
| 824s | uh currently it's just a damage increase |
| 826s | but you know some we can do all sorts of |
| 829s | things with this later like you know if |
| 831s | you're charging it up longer then you |
| 834s | can set up some kind of status effect |
| 836s | combo there's all kinds of things that |
| 838s | we can do with it but yeah right now |
| 840s | um it just increases the damage so for |
| 842s | example one thing you could do is you |
| 844s | could do two basic shots and then charge |
| 846s | the final shot and that will give you |
| 848s | like a big spike of damage there at the |
| 850s | end so oh that's cool be charged |
| 852s | individually wow that's pretty cool |
| 854s | and now we have some abilities that we |
| 857s | talked about these are from the ranger |
| 859s | archetype of course we're not going to |
| 861s | show everything that the ranger has but |
| 863s | we are going to give you guys some ideas |
| 864s | of the abilities in its kit |
| 868s | um what is this first ability called |
| 870s | This is snipe |
| 872s | yeah this is snipe um this is the one I |
| 875s | was talking about earlier where it's |
| 876s | kind of like the basic attack but a lot |
| 878s | more powerful you can hold this and when |
| 881s | you see that little flash there at the |
| 883s | end that indicates that it's fully |
| 885s | charged that's a strong ability |
| 887s | yeah you can keep holding it in case you |
| 889s | want to like you know wait for the |
| 891s | Target to get low before you you know |
| 893s | bring them down if they're getting |
| 893s | healed all kinds of things I can do but |
| 895s | after a certain point it stops um |
| 898s | getting charged |
| 900s | oh that's cool |
| 908s | now the what happens let's get into that |
| 911s | environment where I'm getting chased by |
| 913s | a few creatures |
| 916s | see if I can find a couple more because |
| 919s | I know there's another ability we have |
| 920s | called airstrike which is kind of cool |
| 925s | see really cool |
| 929s | so now let's say for example as the |
| 931s | ranger I have these creatures and this |
| 933s | melee guy is on me and I want to |
| 935s | reposition |
| 937s | tell me a little bit about what |
| 939s | airstrike does |
| 942s | airstrike does a lot of things |
| 945s | character and the direction that you're |
| 947s | facing |
| 948s | and it rains three projectiles down in |
| 951s | the path that you're going |
| 952s | and each of those projects does damage |
| 959s | foreign |
| 962s | but it's it's definitely up there |
| 966s | yeah that ability is so rad I love using |
| 972s | it |
| 973s | you can see it's generally nature |
| 975s | Essence to cause roots to come up and |
| 977s | bind to grab the Minotaur |
| 981s | and now this quick shot ability by the |
| 984s | way that |
| 986s | um I see it it has a debuff that looks |
| 988s | like the quick shot icon on the target |
| 991s | what's that doing |
| 994s | uh that so basically each shot of quick |
| 996s | shot will increase the damage of the |
| 998s | next application of that specific attack |
| 1001s | against the against the target so it |
| 1005s | kind of encourages to unload all three |
| 1007s | of your charges for a big spike of burst |
| 1009s | damage but that does come at the cost of |
| 1011s | each charge comes back individually so |
| 1013s | you either have to wait a longer period |
| 1014s | of time to get that burst or you can |
| 1017s | just kind of weave them in here and |
| 1019s | there if you want more readily available |
| 1020s | damage got it that's super cool so I |
| 1024s | have here |
| 1026s | now a reticle on my screen so we've |
| 1029s | switched from tab Target mode |
| 1031s | which is a point and click with the |
| 1034s | cursor or using tab to cycle targets |
| 1036s | based on proximity priority |
| 1038s | right and into this reticle-based mode |
| 1042s | which now you can see the targeting |
| 1045s | plate |
| 1046s | in the top is slightly grayed out |
| 1049s | and we do that to demonstrate that that |
| 1052s | is a soft lock Target versus a hard lock |
| 1055s | Target |
| 1056s | and what a soft flock Target is |
| 1058s | Chad you want to explain a little bit |
| 1059s | about that |
| 1061s | sure yeah so if you if you are in action |
| 1063s | mode and you don't have a Target |
| 1065s | actually selected like you would in a |
| 1067s | tad Target game |
| 1069s | um then it'll just smartly choose |
| 1071s | whatever Target it thinks is the most |
| 1074s | appropriate for where your camera is and |
| 1075s | attack that Target but if you were to |
| 1078s | actually select a Target I think is it |
| 1081s | right Mouse button in action mode right |
| 1083s | right now it's of course all this stuff |
| 1085s | is customizable by the user but if you |
| 1088s | press the the right Mouse button |
| 1091s | in action mode it will hard lock the |
| 1094s | target which means you can take your |
| 1095s | reticle off the Target and it won't |
| 1097s | change correct Chad |
| 1099s | right |
| 1100s | that's awesome |
| 1103s | now we have another type of ranged |
| 1105s | weapon |
| 1107s | show |
| 1109s | oh and I can still wow in action mode I |
| 1113s | can still tap to cycle Target as well |
| 1118s | yeah we really wanted to um case a more |
| 1122s | tab based combat here because we in the |
| 1125s | last live stream all of our melee |
| 1127s | attacks were there were more hitboxes |
| 1129s | right they didn't acquire a hard target |
| 1131s | and so we wanted to show a little bit |
| 1134s | more of that in this stream and so you |
| 1136s | know right right here for example Target |
| 1138s | you're not having any radicals or |
| 1141s | anything like that it's more what you um |
| 1146s | but at the same time we still have |
| 1148s | abilities like air strike and you know |
| 1151s | other things that were we haven't even |
| 1152s | shown yet that are going to be more |
| 1154s | action oriented so we can hopefully Hit |
| 1156s | The Sweet Spot of having a nice |
| 1158s | combination of all that and it's more |
| 1160s | fun I've played Rangers in EQ eq2 the |
| 1164s | great Archer types and Guild Wars and |
| 1166s | hunters and wow and what is this mode |
| 1169s | with the reticle and stuff it's just fun |
| 1170s | running around shooting these guys oh it |
| 1173s | is super fun and I've switched over to |
| 1174s | the short bow now so let me see if I can |
| 1176s | show off that short bow |
| 1179s | into a good light one second |
| 1184s | uh I'll exit this mode |
| 1188s | there we go so now I have a short bow |
| 1190s | equipped versus the |
| 1192s | excuse me versus the longbow |
| 1196s | and talk to me a little bit about the |
| 1197s | difference in the short bow tread |
| 1201s | sure yeah the direction that we went |
| 1203s | with the short bow was a lot more I |
| 1205s | almost want to say |
| 1207s | acrobatic like you can use this a lot |
| 1210s | more freely movement it doesn't slow you |
| 1213s | as much it's a higher rate of fire |
| 1215s | basically this is this is the more |
| 1218s | mobile feeling lightweight uh version of |
| 1221s | the Longbow |
| 1223s | um so it's not quite as powerful |
| 1225s | um because you are trade you're you're |
| 1227s | making some trade-offs here |
| 1229s | um with range and attack speed and I do |
| 1232s | think right now we're actually putting a |
| 1234s | higher current rate on this one so it's |
| 1236s | got the first potential but these are |
| 1238s | just the kinds of decisions |
| 1243s | who do I value |
| 1246s | I love the the movement of that yeah I |
| 1249s | think I mean it is a very different |
| 1250s | feeling right |
| 1252s | um one I'm much more mobile being able |
| 1255s | to shoot and not have to sacrifice a lot |
| 1257s | of my movement speed like I have to |
| 1261s | so just from that aspect alone it feels |
| 1264s | like a very different weapon I'm also |
| 1266s | not able to charge I'm just kind of I'm |
| 1267s | holding down the attack and it's just |
| 1270s | firing about you'll see that I can blind |
| 1271s | fire because I'm in action mode |
| 1274s | um |
| 1275s | that's why I've like fired an extra |
| 1276s | there but it is it feels very different |
| 1280s | um and of course it doesn't change the |
| 1281s | way you have access to your abilities |
| 1284s | your abilities are there regardless of |
| 1285s | the the type of range weapon necessarily |
| 1287s | you're using |
| 1289s | um |
| 1289s | short bow or longbow |
| 1292s | and then I don't have to have a hard |
| 1294s | target lock also now for the abilities |
| 1297s | either they tie off of the reticle |
| 1302s | and I know there's some feedback that we |
| 1304s | wanted to collect from players with |
| 1306s | regards to this demonstration you want |
| 1307s | to talk a little bit about that trend |
| 1310s | yeah |
| 1311s | um as always every time we make an |
| 1314s | ability we're pretty much always |
| 1316s | thinking about what is what is the right |
| 1318s | balance between |
| 1321s | restricting player movement for the sake |
| 1323s | of weight |
| 1325s | um you know getting getting the feeling |
| 1326s | of the weight in that |
| 1328s | being able to animate the full body all |
| 1331s | the good things that come along with you |
| 1333s | know |
| 1334s | restricting movement but at the same |
| 1336s | time we definitely don't want to be a |
| 1339s | game that makes it frustrating to you |
| 1342s | know attack and move at the same time |
| 1344s | and a lot of people you know what I |
| 1347s | think a lot a lot of people love them |
| 1351s | free to combat and we want to retain |
| 1353s | that so uh just as you see these |
| 1357s | abilities go off and |
| 1359s | get used in this environment like |
| 1362s | I guess we appreciate any feedback on |
| 1365s | how that direction is going absolutely |
| 1370s | also from the enemy side yes and asking |
| 1373s | on behalf of like Doug's encounter group |
| 1375s | it's |
| 1376s | how fast is the combat playing |
| 1380s | um is it too slow is it too fast does it |
| 1383s | feel good |
| 1384s | um the time to kill or |
| 1386s | what you're seeing right now are is it |
| 1389s | uh |
| 1390s | what what players are liking do people |
| 1392s | lights and and keep in mind these are |
| 1395s | our solo ones right now these are uh |
| 1398s | tuned more for solo fighting |
| 1400s | um these aren't Elite group mobs but |
| 1403s | one-on-one type of fights |
| 1405s | yeah I like um in the solo areas you |
| 1410s | know this for me this speed feels pretty |
| 1412s | good uh given that I'm a you know GPS |
| 1415s | class and these guys are particularly |
| 1418s | susceptible to Rangers because they are |
| 1422s | um they are uh Mage class NPCs but you |
| 1427s | know getting your guys's opinion on |
| 1429s | those things also the differences |
| 1430s | between the weapon types right we talked |
| 1432s | a little bit about the Longbow we talked |
| 1433s | a little bit about the short bow |
| 1435s | um you know being able to kind of uh |
| 1437s | give us feedback on how you feel the |
| 1439s | direction uh has gone now uh is this the |
| 1442s | type of range combat if you're looking |
| 1444s | for those of you out there especially |
| 1445s | who are bow users and enjoy these |
| 1448s | classes you know what is it about the |
| 1451s | games that you have played that you felt |
| 1453s | had good uh range combat uh in it and |
| 1456s | are you seeing elements of that |
| 1458s | demonstrated in this type of combat as |
| 1460s | well I can tell you that obviously |
| 1463s | seeing is one thing in Alpha 2 those of |
| 1466s | you who have access will be able to give |
| 1468s | us kind of your feel feedback and you |
| 1471s | know of course that's not under NDA so |
| 1473s | all of us get to watch and participate |
| 1475s | in Alpha 2 |
| 1476s | um through through watching others play |
| 1479s | it and and getting their feedback and |
| 1481s | experiences as well |
| 1483s | um another thing that I think is is |
| 1486s | pretty cool that I wanted to talk about |
| 1488s | actually |
| 1489s | was these uh weapons and the types of |
| 1494s | skill trees that they have associated |
| 1496s | with them Trey do you want to talk to us |
| 1498s | a little bit about you know how these |
| 1500s | skill trees interact with the weapon |
| 1503s | for sure yeah |
| 1505s | um part of the plan with each of these |
| 1507s | weapons is they'll each have a unique |
| 1509s | skill tree associated with them to |
| 1511s | differentiate them not only in terms of |
| 1514s | feel but also in terms of mechanics and |
| 1518s | an important thing that we really want |
| 1521s | to capture in ashes is is the important |
| 1523s | ability |
| 1524s | basically consider the player can build |
| 1526s | their character you know how they want |
| 1528s | and that's been beyond just their |
| 1530s | classrooms right |
| 1532s | um so for example if I'm the ranger I |
| 1535s | can spec into my short bow or I can |
| 1537s | inspect into my Longbow and those will |
| 1538s | be two different very different builds |
| 1540s | for example |
| 1542s | made Specialized or have have a part of |
| 1546s | its stream that specializes and leads |
| 1548s | might synergize with specific Ranger |
| 1551s | abilities that you know the Longbow |
| 1554s | um might not necessarily synthetize with |
| 1556s | their weapon choice will play into like |
| 1558s | what abilities |
| 1565s | we're just starting to scratch the |
| 1567s | surfaces up and you would also want to |
| 1569s | take into account the enemies you're |
| 1571s | going up against what areas you're going |
| 1573s | into what enemies you're hunting and is |
| 1575s | it a player versus uh a monster players |
| 1579s | very differently and it's a longbow |
| 1582s | getting the drop bottom important are |
| 1585s | you respect for short bow for being |
| 1588s | dodgy and moving around them you got all |
| 1591s | those things to keep in mind |
| 1592s | absolutely |
| 1594s | well guys appreciate you joining us |
| 1596s | today to talk about this stuff it is |
| 1598s | amazing that the the world you guys are |
