Dev Discussion #47 - Tanking: Threat Mitigation

Post
    Vaknar on Forums - Thread - Direct

-----
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 - Tanking: Threat Mitigation
For people who prefer to play the tanking role, do you enjoy holding threat as a prevalent part of combat? Would you prefer threat mechanics to be a part of combat initiation, or throughout the entire duration of combat?

It's all fun and games while you're out gathering and questing until you turn around and see a giant world boss breathing down your neck :joy:


Free PK, corruption & night in game

Never hurts putting ideas or things you'd like to see out there! I think many ideas, such as this one, make for good thought starters for the event system that will be utilized in Ashes of Creation :)

Side note, the open seas sure will be a formidable place with all of you PvP-loving, corruption-hating pirates out there! 😈😅

What’s your favorite weapon in the genre?

There's something especially cool about wielding a two-handed sword, imo :)

What Abilities Do You Want To See For Your Favorite Classes?

I love threads like these! This is a question we featured in a couple of our Office Hours sessions on Discord. Archetype and class fantasy is important and feeling attuned with the archetype/class you play is what makes playing it that much more special!

Alpha-2 Progression?

It looks like many people have answered the question for you :) But to reiterate, it is highly unlikely that any Alpha Two progression will carry over to launch :)

"you're coming to work with us."

Is this possibly a double entendre foreshadowing of an Alpha 2 date?



It simply means that if you join in on Friday for the livestream, you'll be joining us (virtually, of course!) at our San Diego, CA studio for some interviews with a few of our developers and a small glimpse of our studio! :)

Will some group mounts weapons systems be support focused?



For this month, we put aside the Q&A to focus on other elements of this unique stream! We'd love it if you gave us your question in the Q&A thread next month! Thank you and stay awesome! ^_^

Dual wielding question:

Is dual wielding locked behind some talent or skill trees and can every class use dual wielding?

To set expectations, we don’t have all our snazzy Intrepid Studios decor up yet, but we do have a ton of wonderful folks who are excited to meet you! Because of this, we won’t have a Q&A session for this livestream, but we hope that you will enjoy getting to know more of the development team and we’ll bring back the normal Development Update Livestream in the new year! ^_^[/quote]

A question about travelling and exploring:

Node towns and cities will offer a host of services that can differ, town-to-town. Message and contract billboards, Node-specific channels, and markets for stalls are some of what we know of, thus far. Can you give us a general idea of what kind of things we can expect to see/experience when entering a new-to-us township for the first time, and how we'll know to find our way around?

I'm curious, how long does it take to come up with and do the math for a post such as this one?

It's quite impressive and interesting reading through posts with such meticulous thought put into them!

Winter’s Nevermore

Post


“The Tale of Winter’s Nevermore” is a popular tavern song of Snowstead, a picturesque village nestled in the frozen Northlands. The ballad relates to the legend of the white dragon Frijah, known by many as the Iceheart Dragon and reserved for the coldest of winter nights. She slumbers in her lair atop the highest of the snowy crags of the mountains surrounding the village. Many brave adventurers have set out to scale the towering peak, hoping to do battle with the wicked wyrm. The legend of Winter’s Nevermore claims that if the Iceheart Dragon is defeated it will lift a great curse and bring about an end to all winters, extending the growing season, providing Snowstead with a bountiful, and abundant harvest forevermore.

The Winter’s Nevermore cosmetic add-ons will be available in the ... Read more
