Hiya! We definitely appreciate you all sharing your feedback here on lighter armor options, and thank you to mcstackerson for sharing a few great examples on where we've taken this approach previously! There's another great thread over here where folks have been sharing more specific examples of the kinds of armor they'd like to see more of in-game, so we'd love for you to highlight more pictures in this thread ...

Oh I adore this, from the cape color to the armor trim to the saddle blanket to those luxuuuurious eyelashes 😉

Thank you for sharing this with us, and we can't wait to see your next piece! <3

Oh wow! <3 Consider me sold, I'm joining the Ren'Kai! Love seeing your process here as well; it's amazing what you can put together on your phone nowadays :smiley:

Thank you for sharing your lovely work with us, and we can't wait to see what you come up with next!

Ohhh I think I've seen some of her work before, these are super intricate and lovely!

I can definitely see some inspiration for some dwarves here, both for braided hair and braided beards...keep those suggestions coming! <3

Glad to hear you all enjoyed our recent live stream, it's always such a blast to get to put these together for you each month! <3

The flagging reference.

I'm really glad we got to cover this one in the Q&A section as well, since it was definitely a big topic here on the forums lately!

Loving the suggestions in here so far, especially the folks who went a more lore-driven route!

Keep 'em coming frands! <3

How about...the gods do not allow the mortals to go around the globe? :smile:

Us poor mere mortals! What ever did we do to deserve being confined to this flat expanse!

I'm a fan of the "thar be dragons" theory...perhaps we simply yet lack the naval fortitude to outwit the creatures that lurk in the depths...🐙

Isn't that like...their whole job though?! 🤔

⏳ Just in time, our tank rushes forward and blocks the incoming enemy attack. A blast of light shoots from their mage’s staff and half our group is knocked down.

💖 Our cleric prepares to take an action - what spell should they use?

💥Damnation (damage foes)
💖Benediction (heal allies)

Obviously the stealthed rogue right in front of him, trips him over and does a quick poke to his jugular vein so he bleeds out before he can get back up.

Just a quick little pokey-poo 🔪

💪 There's strength in numbers, and we're standing our ground! A dwarf from the enemy group runs forward, their hammer swinging right at us!

Who in our group makes the first move?
🛡 Tank
✨ Mage
💖 Cleric

Hiya! Sounds like some folks already steered ya in the right direction in this thread; we'll be sharing more details on the specifics of the different artisan classes and what's available as we get closer to having you help us test them!

Perhaps some crafters have ideas, they'd like to share, as Intrepid is keen on "our" concepts and ideas. 😁

You know it! <3 keep sharing those awesome processing ideas!

With parlor games available at taverns, we've mentioned before that some might be dice games, some might be card games, and some might have other elements available!

So with that in mind, an Ashes-related game could certainly be in the cards (hehe) - it being tied to anything Shop-related though might constitute what some would consider "P2W", so that might not be an avenue we'd want to go down :P

Nagash

The way you worded it sounds like they will be in game

That's the way I read Toast's response as well. I would be interested in understanding more about why (e.g. what are they trying to achieve), considering the near-uniform reaction above (knowing this isn't a scientific sample size).

I wasn't meaning to imply as much, I was just providing an alternate angle for the discussion as it seemed like lots of folks here were so uniformly against it, and I wanted to shake ya up a bit ;)

And indeed while forums are amazing for gathering feedback and thoughts on these kinds of things, we do always have to keep in mind that it's only a very small and super passionate subset of the community that will take the time to chime in and respond <3

Second, players shouldn't ever feel punished for taking a day off to take their significant other out for dinner, or to spend an evening with their children.

I definitely understand how these types of login rewards that only ramp up if you log in consistently can lead to potential "feelsbad" moments just for living your real life too. However, I've seen some games implement them where they just count up every time you log in, regardless of how long it's been since your last login - so it was more about rewarding you for overall time played. More like a "thank you for being a loyal friend" vs. "you MUST log in every day to get the greatest goodies". I'd be interested to hear more on what folks think about a system built more like this instead :smiley:

Someone that is able to spend 2 blocks of 7 hours a week in the game should not be at any disadvantage to someon...

Smile politely and ask for directions? No? Guess it's time to fight then!

You should definitely ask them for directions...to the nearest graveyard...so you know where to leave them when you're done ;)

GG and enjoy frands! <3 Thank you again for sharing your amazingly glorious creation with us all!

🗻Onwards, friends! As we reach the base of the mountain range, a radiant burst of energy surrounds us, temporarily halting our movement. Another group of adventurers is closing in, weapons at the ready. 😱

Quick, what should we do?
