Reading the recent threads regarding the Lawless Open Sea, i saw a sentiment from people more PvE oriented, it seems like they believe that the open seas are a area with PvX more tilted towards PvP High Risk vs High Reward and it made think of the possibility of a Area with PvX more tilted towards PvE High Risk vs High Reward.

In this thread, i would like people to discuss and give their opinions and ideas towards the concept of "PvX more tilted towards PvE High Risk vs High Reward".

Let me provide an idea:

Lorewise we know the Underrealm is the place the people who weren't able to leave from Verra fled to escape from corruption, how about making the Underrealm a Area with PvX more tilted towards PvE High Risk vs High Reward.

How so? How about making it an area where you gain more corruption when killing players, killing monsters and death reduces less corruption, monsters there are stronger th...

I can't wait to read through all the ideas you all generate!

So far, there are some cool thoughts in here ^_^ Keep it up, and don't be afraid to think outside of the box!

There are some other government positions. Yes.

Priests, Bishops, Acolytes...
Chief Bounty Hunter...
Patron Guild leaders...
Possibly Social Org leaders...

Exactly this!

As Steven has said, "There are a lot of things that you can strive for within [a node] that grant you that special treatment."

I merged a couple of similar threads regarding the new map changes together to make discussions a bit smoother for folks!

I'm excited to see what y'all have to say about it! ^_^ Personally, I'm so excited!

If gnomes were introduced into the world of Verra, what do you think their lore, cultural influences, and architecture would be like?

We understand that having robust accessibility options and settings is important to many of our players. We want as many people as possible to be able to enjoy Ashes of Creation! :)

I've taken note that being able to increase font and cursor size is important. If there are any additional accessibility-related settings you feel would be important for your experience, feel free to drop another comment here!

I love threads like these! Keep the ideas comin' ^_^

The pocket watch is present in every single pack they sell :wink: It just represents game time.

This is true :wink:

Its the goddess of time. The sign on the head is similar to the one that is carried by the Protector's Armor.

Unfortunately, the Armor doesn't have any Lore attached to it.

But what's also in the Pack of the Protector's Armor?
A Pocket Watch

The goddess of time...like sand passing through an hour glass.

I agree with @Neurath there

OOhh! You and @Neurath have an interesting opinion that she could be related to time.

Goddess of Hope, Resna, is my number one guess. The pose suggests hope. Sand slipping through fingers can be symbolic of loss of hope, which is appropriate for the Apocalypse. Resna is goddess for the Aela humans, so that part fits too.

It could be that Aelan queen too, the Lady of the Rose, but I lean slightly more towards Resna.

(I'm going to preface what I'm about to say with this: I genuinely don't know and I've kept it that way so I don't spoil it for myself and so I can join in on fun conversations about lore without having to pretend like I don't know ;) )

This is a really interesting guess. I love your observation on the potential symbolism of the statue's pose and static action. I would say that her face might resemble that of being at peace, or perhaps hopeful!

🤔💭 Who is this lovely sand momma?

Well done. 4 plus years of Steven telling the community that Ashes won't be a gankbox to be undone by one tweet.

Who is to say that player doesn't have a bounty? Or ... Read more

I send out a call for help in g chat then we 10 v 1 this guy and steal his wood.

I like where your head is at 😏

Me walkin' up to gank the player 😈

Interesting read!

We received a lot of good feedback after we showed you the 3D models for the Niküa. I, unfortunately, can't confirm at the moment, but you may see some new Niküa-related art soon :wink:

I look forward to seeing what y'all continue to discuss in this thread ^_^

😈 What a glorious day for ganking!

👀 You are on the prowl, and notice an unsuspecting player chopping trees. #WWYD?
