The ''Walking while casting'' question was a 100% yes for me



If you have feedback to share on the Mage Archetype prior to this session, the best place to share it is in the thread here: https://forums.ashesofcreation.com/discussion/55467/feedback-request-alpha-two-mage-updates-shown-in-the-april-livestream/p1

I sincerely hope Necromancer / pets will be discussed~
even in brief!



We'll be discussing the Mage Archetype during this session, not the Summoner Archetype (Necromancer is Summoner/Cleric).

Since we only have about an hour for this session, we try to keep discussions on topic. Posting discussion prompts like this in advance hopefully helps people who want to be part of this conversation.

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 - Let's Discuss the Mage
[list]
[*] Would you prefer to have some spells that can be cast back-to-back without a cooldown, or would you want all of your abilities on a cooldown rotation?
[*] Is mana management important to you? Should mana be a contributing factor to a Mage's total output over longer ... Read more

This has already been mentioned, but CC abilities will have diminishing returns. Balance passes and more finalized numbers will be a goal during testing. We look forward to parsing the feedback of the Mage's kit once players are able to play with the Mage during Alpha Two! :)

Abilities like the one shown last livestream, in which the ability animates the character to temporarily levitate, will likely not render the caster immune to ground-affect AoE, but this may be subject to further testing, iteration, and feedback <3

Make sure to drop your feedback on the Mage in the official thread!

The team is working hard on the Rogue archetype, and is excited to show it off as soon as it's ready! We haven't announced any dates for when we'll feature the Rogue on a livestream, so stay tuned to our socials for when the day... Read more

@Azherae The team isn't ready to give a definite and final answer for what augments will be available for the Mage archetype, but I hope some examples of some of the abilities shown on the April livestream helped give an idea of what is currently planned for the Mage's kit.

With that said, we really have enjoyed reading the augment theory-crafting here, and there are some very creative ideas!

Because of the nature of how customizable archetypes will be in Ashes of Creation, along with each archetype's kit, there will be plenty of reasons to play either Mage or Ranger. And you will have tools to make them either as similar, or as different as you can!

I'm interested to hear more about the different desires for class fantasy between Ranger and Mage. Even though they both have ranged abilities in their kits, their fantasies can be quite different, in my mind!
