Races
Ashes of Creation offers nine playable races.[13][14]
Parent race | Races | |
---|---|---|
Aelan Humans | Kaelar.[11] | Vaelune.[11] |
Dünzenkell Dwarves | Dünir.[11] | Niküa.[11] |
Kaivek Orcs | Ren'Kai.[11] | Vek.[11] |

Verra is a world with rich and diverse cultures. Much of its important history has been dominated by the major races. Humans of the coast and plains, Orcs within the hills and the marshes, Elves in the forest and the riverlands, and the esteemed Dwarves of the mountains. The major races have held dominance through countless wars and skirmishes between the lesser races of Verra. Decades may pass between these flareups of violence. There are many minor races on Verra. Some of the minor races exist in makeshift villages or tribes if you will. Some of the major villages among the minor races are comprised primarily of the Giants, less reputable sects of Human, Gnomes, and Halflings. The Halflings are not Halflings in a traditional sense but actually half-bloods of different races.[16] – Steven Sharif
Wandering the darker places in the world lie truly sinister abominations of creation. The great churches of civilization often dispatch heroes of the state to eliminate these threats to mortals. There currently exist four great nations on Verra. This is 25 years roughly before the fall: The Aelan Empire, Pyrian Kingdom, the Kaivek Protectorate, and the nation of the Dünzenkell. There was not always only four great nations. Long ago the races were more divided into many nations and city states.[17] – Steven Sharif
In the 7,000 years of recorded history, wars upon wars were fought. Some for land, others for resources, many for beliefs. Royal houses stood and fell over the years. Some now long bereft of lordship. Many city states exist in Verra. Some self-governed bastions of democracy and republics alike. Others are vassal states at the behest of their benefactors.[18] – Steven Sharif
Character/Racial benefits
Character benefits in Ashes of Creation are mostly tied to that character's background rather than their race.[19][20][21]
- We want players to have the freedom to choose the race they want to play because they're excited about it, and avoid situations where players feel forced to play a specific race because of gameplay benefits.[22] – Steven Sharif
- Race likely won't affect the artisan system.[21][25]
- Race does not affect a character's base stats.[26]
- Racial augments are intended to provide additional flavor to primary skills.[19][24]
- Race likely won't affect the artisan system.[21][25]
Character backgrounds
Backgrounds in Ashes of Creation house character benefits that are traditionally tied to race in other games.[20][21]
- Backgrounds are similar to "racials" in other games. Instead of the race you choose giving certain benefits, players will select a "background." We want players to have the freedom to choose the race they want to play because they're excited about it, and avoid situations where players feel forced to play a specific race because of gameplay benefits.[22] – Steven Sharif
- Backgrounds are chosen during character creation. Choice of background may provide benefits such as passive abilities, titles, and different narrative choices in the game.[19]
- We wanted a background system that you can choose as part of any race. So, if you're a Street Rat background as a Kaelar or as a Vaelune, it's the same Street Rat background across the races. and now you have you know a five percent luck bonus to find additional Glint on a mob, or you have a narrative structure that engages you as a predicate for the Street Rat arc that has a different type of itemization loop. Those are things that just add flavor to your character and influence the gameplay to some degree, but doesn't carve out these kind of pigeon holes that players have to do as a meta.[19] – Steven Sharif
- Backgrounds are independent of race and racial benefits.[27][21]
- One thing we've talked about in the past is replacing the racial abilities with more of a background style, where you get to select your background regardless of race; and so those two aren't tied intrinsically.[21] – Steven Sharif
Character sheet
Stats in Ashes of Creation are derived from primary attributes (Constitution, Dexterity, Intelligence, Mentality, Strength, and Wisdom) via a waterfall system.[28][29]
- A waterfall stat is a derivative of an attribute. So, if dexterity is your attribute stat and a waterfall from dexterity is critical rate, that would be considered a waterfall stat: the critical rate.[29] – Steven Sharif
- Primary attributes are also referred to as Core stats, Primary stats, and Base stats.[39][26][40][41][42][43]
- Base stats are defined by a character's primary archetype.[26]
- These can be improved based on gear, tattoos, and other enhancements, such as socketed items.[26]
- Concentration will be a stat for spell casters.[39]
Stat adjustment (via the Tattoo system)
Tattoos in Ashes of Creation refers to.
- Decals applied through the character creator.[47]
- The developers are considering whether to allow custom tattoos to be uploaded by users.[48]
- Cosmetic items that allow players to customize their character in-game.[49]
- Tattoos that can be applied to a character to adjust their stats.[46][51]
- These will have slots to allow stats to be migrated with a give-and-take relationship.[46]
- Higher quality magical tattoos can be applied to adjust stats.[46]
- They may also provide stat augments or other boosts.[51]
Tattoos can be removed.[51]
Nameplate
Nameplates are displayed above the head of player characters and NPCs. These are currently undergoing rework by the UI engineering team.[55][56]
- The size and priority of nameplates will be relate to their distance (away from the camera).[57]
- Default nameplate visibility is set around 75-100m, but this is subject to change.[55]
- Nameplates can be obscured by in-game objects, such as trees; by utility skills, such as Camouflage or Stealth; or through the use of disguises.[55][58][59]
- UI settings will enable nameplates to be hidden, resized, and customized.[60][61][62]
- You can set nameplates to always appear. You can set it to only appear on targets. You can set it to only appear on targets that have taken damage. You can set it to only appear on targets that are aggroing you or your party members. You can set it for your allies, for yourself, for whatever: There's a lot of highly customizable options that are currently in the game.[61] – Steven Sharif
- Player character nameplates
- The name of the character's guild is displayed next to their name.[63]
- An icon will identify the character's class.[64]
- Hovering over a player nameplate will show information such as level, class name, and archetype combo.[64]
- A buff icon will indicate the character's gear and grade.[64][65][66]
- Players that are not in the same party, raid, alliance, or guild will not be able to see other player's exact health bar values or percentages.[60][67][68][69][70][71] This information will instead be displayed in quarters. A player may be able to progress to see sixths or eighths.[67]
- Nameplates in the party UI indicate the player's choice of secondary archetype.[54]
- A padlock icon indicates that the secondary archetype is not yet unlocked.[54]
- Summons nameplates
- Summoner summons' creature type appears in the nameplate above the summon. This cannot be changed by the player.[72]
- Mob nameplates
- Mob nameplates will have indicators that identify resistances, buffs, end elite status.[73]
- Player character nameplates will have first, and optionally last name (surname).[56]
Threat assessment
Players will have a buff on their nameplate that indicates the gear set they are wearing. Other players will be able to see this buff by targeting that player at a distance.[75][64][65][66]
- This will indicate the type of armor (cloth, leather, plate) that they are predominantly wearing, but will not reveal the exact gear items.[75][65] The developers believe that inspecting gear to obtain an exact equipment list or gear score may lead to "unwelcome behavior".[76]
- I think that players tend to look at transmog as an additional layer of obfuscation for you, as a player in PvP, to understand who and what you're going up against. And that is why, from a design perspective, I've included this concept of essentially [a] gear composition buff that players, when selecting a target can see they're wearing three pieces of light and five pieces of heavy. That gives you an indicator of at least their kind of damage mitigation stat against what types of incoming damage power. So, I think that to a degree counters the concern around transmog, but still allows for players to leverage that cosmetic flare and customization option.[75] – Steven Sharif
- The border will indicate the level and quality of the tier set.[64][65][77]
- This also indicates if the gear is enchanted, along with visual effects associated with enchanted items.[65][78][77]
- When you see a player approaching you and they're wearing a transmog you don't know if that person is a high damage mitigation against physical damage or against magical damage and essentially the way we overcome that is through you being able to target a player at a distance and they will have a buff that's present on them that you will see, which indicates that essentially the piece set that they are wearing. It is important for players to be able to ascertain from a threat assessment standpoint what they're going up against if they're actively checking that, and that will be available.[66] – Steven Sharif
Health
Players that are not in the same party, raid, alliance, or guild will not be able to see other player's exact health bar values or percentages.[60][67][79][69][70][71] This information will instead be displayed in quarters. A player may be able to progress to see sixths or eighths.[67]
- NPCs will always show exact health values.[60]
- Previously it was stated that a player's name plate would deteriorate to give an indication of how much damage they have taken.[70][71][80]
- If you are targeting another player specifically, another player not an NPC. If you're targeting another player and that player is not a member of your guild, alliance, raid, or party- those are the four affiliation factors. If they're not a part of those four groups you will not have specific information of their HP level. You will have quarters of information to their [HP] level and you may progress to get that a bit more granular, perhaps to sixths or eighths. You're not going to have exact information about what amount of hit points they have available to them. That level of obfuscation protects a bit of that engagement, that TTK interaction. So you might overshoot a target if you don't know exactly if they're down to their last 20% or 25%. That I think is a very healthy thing to have in PvP, but it is not a normal game design mechanic.[67] – Steven Sharif
Alts
- There will be a "comfortable" number of character slots available for alts.[81][82]
- Progression pathways in Ashes of Creation are per-character.[83][84]
- Storage space is shared between characters on the same account.[83][85][86]
- Characters on the same account are able to share player housing, including furniture and freehold workstations.[83]
- Cosmetics can be reassigned to characters within an account, with a potential cooldown period.[87][88][89]
- Alts within a single account may have different professions.[90]
Character slots
There will be character limits during the Alpha and Beta testing phases. These are probably going to be more relaxed than for live launch.[91]
- Allow testing of different builds as needed.[91]
- Provide equipment needed to test various scenarios.[91]
There will be a "comfortable" number of character slots available for alts.[81][82]
Banking
Nodes advance to the first stage quickly. This enables NPC services such as vending or banking items.[92]
- Banking between characters will likely be restricted to furniture and completed items.[93]
- A warehouse ability may enable a player to transfer non-material goods between alternate characters. This excludes resources, materials or anything that relies on the caravan system.[94]
Character creator
The character creator (or character customization system) allows players to define the look of their in-game characters, hired NPCs; and potentially creatures raised by the animal husbandry profession.[96][101]
- Character appearance can be adjusted through a wide range of presets and sliders.[96][101][102]
- Character blending provides easy to use customization by morphing together two or more character presets.[103]
- Character sculpting allows detailed customization of every aspect of the body.[104]
The Ashes of Creation character creator is 100% developed in-house by Intrepid Studios and is not MetaHuman.[99]
Additional character creator features include.
- There will be unlockable features for character customization.[105]
- You have that scar because you participated in this siege, or these many sieges; or you have this tattoo because of your of a cultural background, or because of a quest that was accomplished where you're able to get that.[105] – Steven Sharif
- The beauty of it is that you can save your character- and we already have some of those features available- and load them; and in the future we want people to be able to share those characters amongst each other.[95] – Margaret Krohn
- The ability to undo changes (Ctrl + Z) will be supported, including undoing changes that were made several edits earlier.[107][108]
- Choosing base idle animations of characters will be possible in future.[109]
- Certain animations, such as blinking, will be present when they don't interfere with the customization process.[110]
- Certain ability sound effects will adhere to character customization selections, such as race.[111]
- Adjusting the background scene and lighting is a planned feature.[110]
- There's going to be a lot of environmental controls that are offered to the character creator so that people can set it up their scene the way they want to grab screenshots or to grab recordings or whatever they want to do.[112] – Steven Sharif
- Asymmetry in terms of manipulating different components of the body or different body features such as hair, beard, and eyes.[113]
- Asymmetry is going to be functionality that's possible in manipulating either different components of the body or different features like hair. The beard we saw a little bit of that blending with highlights that you can do. Margaret talked a little bit about the eye asymmetry that you can include. Obviously those are going to exist within certain parameters that we want to define on a per-race basis, but it is something that we think is cool.[113] – Steven Sharif
- Body adornments, such as piercings will be possible within cultural limits.[114]
- The developers are considering whether to allow custom tattoos to be uploaded by users.[48]
- A future development, post-Alpha-2 launch, may enable users to upload an image to use as a basis for a character's appearance.[115]
The aim is for the character creator to be on par if not much better than that of BDO.[116][117]
Character appearance customization
Character appearance can be customized in the character creator (CC)[121] and via in-game salons/barbershops.[105][122]
- We want there to be a lot of room for people to manifest their own identity, to role play how they want to from an appearance standpoint. There's going to be parameters within which you will be able to customize a character. We want the culture and the identity of the races to exist in a range that makes them easily identifiable from other players and other cultures. So, because of that, we have to have a spectrum you can exist on. There will be a lot of hair variants you can do, body art tattoos that you can apply. You'll be able to play with the scales of the facial structure, the bones, the height, width, the body fat percentage. You'll be able to add body hair on different parts of the body. If you want to have hair on your feet, you can dial that up.[123] – Steven Sharif
- Character models are focused on realism.[124]
- A player will see a generic character before customization.[125]
- Character designs will have influences from a wide range of cultures, such as European, African and Asian.[126]
- Lolis will not be in the game.[127][128]
- Sliders and other controls, such as color palettes, will offer flexibility in customization but there will be limits based on race, gender, and the artistic style guidelines that the developers are adhering to.[129][130][127][131][132]
- There's going to be constraints to the sliders, so that was one of those big questions as work began on the character creator: How much agency do you want to allow pulling like the lower lip all the way down in this weird deformed look, or having like [an] offset cheek that's just asymmetrical to the side of the face. There's not going to be the ability or agency to create those types of weird character things. However you will have the ability to move, slide, change, grow, decrease all those components, but they'll be kept in a more reasonable and presented way in the same sense you won't be able to change the appearance of the dwarven, nor the Dünir or the Niküan races to, in my opinion, create what would be traditionally considered a Loli character.[127] – Steven Sharif
Body appearance
- Body presets.[135]
Head appearance
Face appearance
- Facial features.[154]
Appearance details
A "default player appearance" may be automatically applied during sieges or other large scale battles to improve client-side performance.[157][158][159]
Character sculpting
Sculpting provides the ability to customize different segments of any part of the body in the character creator.[160]
- Plates are used for moving features around.[104]
- Dots are use to change the shape of the character's features altogether.[104]
Examples:
- Adjusting the length and proportions of limbs.[160][136]
- Sizes of calves and thighs.[160][136]
- Adjustments will allow a character to appear more feminine or masculine.[139]
Character blending
Character blending allows the combination of two or more presets from the character creator. It allows users to click and drag to morph between the different presets to create customized characters without spending time adjusting each angle of every body part.[103]
Genders
There are female and male genders in Ashes of Creation.[163][164]
- Races and Classes are not gender-locked.[23][24]
- Armor appearance adapts to gender.[165]
- Costumes are not gender locked.[166]
- There are no plans for gender neutral pronouns.[167]
- Same-sex marriages are possible.[167][168]
Animations
- Combat is animation-driven to ensure it is impactful and responsive.[170]
- Basic attack animations are triggered by the weapon combo system based on weapon type.[171][172]
- Skill animations are (generally) not impacted by the type of weapon equipped.[173]
- We really wanted to build the combat system to- like i said earlier- be as physical as possible. So we have it very animation driven. Everything is handled based on a reference of animation as opposed to nebulous timings, which allows it to feel very impactful and very responsive.[170] – Keenan Reimer
- We're not going to be having I think unique combat animations. However we will have unique non-combat animations, such as your idle, your walk, your run cycle: things that the combat attacks do not have to blend back into.[174] – Steven Sharif
- Animations that aren't significant to gameplay may be throttled to improve client performance.[176]
Idle animations
Idle animations (non-combat idle stances) will be selectible by players in the character creator.[109]
- Part of the feedback that we got from the tank demonstration when we were holding that two-handed sword was that people would like to see variants of the types of non-combat idle stances that can be had with certain weapons; and so we decided to introduce a variant of that with having the [sword] rest on the on the shoulder; and that is something that we'll be exploring further to see just how much runway we can get out of custom and/or selective idle stances.[109] – Steven Sharif
Character racial appearance
Character appearance can be customized in the character creator (CC)[121] and via in-game salons/barbershops.[105][122]
- We want there to be a lot of room for people to manifest their own identity, to role play how they want to from an appearance standpoint. There's going to be parameters within which you will be able to customize a character.

Aelan appearance
Vaelune have Jinn influence in their lineage, which manifests as an essence-like rupture in their skin after stepping through the divine gateways.[179]
- The Vaelune have an interesting lineage and there is some influence there that when the Vaelune step through the portal, some portions of their body begin to exhibit this almost essence-like rupture in the skin; and you guys are going to see some examples of that in the future; and it is a bit of some Jinn influence in their lineage as a race that sets them apart from their Kaelar counterparts.[179] – Steven Sharif
Dünir dwarven appearance
- Facial hair has been portrayed on Dünir male and female characters, and Niküa male characters.[5][2][180]
- Body hair may also be a character customization option for female Dünir.[181]
- The developers updated the Dünir dwarves' design to have a more stout traditional fantasy appearance based on feedback from Alpha-1.[182][183]
- Niküa dwarves have a "halfling" appearance.[182][183]
- Facial hair is characteristic of the Dünir, not the Niküa.[123]
- Female Dünir beards will not match that of the male. It will be more of a braided option that is not as voluminous.[123]
Pyrian appearance
All Py'rai will have antlers, but their length, size, width, color, and other components can be adjusted via the character creator.[185][186]
- The horns are a unique feature of the Py'Rai, but it may be possible to remove them.[187]
- Py'rai will be capable of having brown skin.[188]
Ren'Kai Appearance
Ren'Kai are large and 'buff' in appearance.[190][191]
- They are the tallest race in Ashes of Creation.[190][192]
- They are considerably taller than their human counterparts.[192]
- Red or green skin tone is selectable via the character creator.[192]
Vek are "goblinesque" in appearance and have a somewhat "contorted" stature.[109][191]
- The Vek are taller than the Dünir but appear shorter than the Kaelar and Vaelune due to their stature.[109][193]
Tulnar appearance
The Tulnar race does not have sub-types. Instead, players will be able to significantly customize the appearance of Tulnar characters based on three base influences; or blend between these different influences.[194][195][196][197][198][199]
- Simian (or mammalian).[194][195][196][197][199]
- Bestial/feline.[194][195][196][197][199]
- Reptilian.[194][195][196][197][199]
Races are primarily humanoid in appearance.[200]
- There are feline and bestial components that can be scaled up when creating a Tulnar character but Tulnar do not equal furries.[127][196]
- Catgirl and Loli Tulnar are not able to be created.[127]
- Tulnar do not equal furries, but there are definitely some bestial components that you can scale up when you're creating your Tulnar character, so you could max that setting I guess. Whether or not that would give you what you would think of as a furry, I guess it's going to be up to your interpretation of what a Furry is.[196] – Steven Sharif
- The Tulnar do not have avian characteristics. The sentient avian races (such as the Sladeborne) did not take refuge in the Underrealm.[201]
- Q: Will character creator allow us to make Tulnar that might look somewhat like Kobolds from Pathfinder or DnD?
- A: I wouldn't say exactly, but there's definitely elements of Kobolds that you could incorporate in a character creator with the Tulnar, yes.[202] – Steven Sharif
- Mammalian Tulnar may have snout features, fur and inverted knees.[203]
- Reptilian Tulnar may have more circular eyes and head shape, and scaly skin.[203]
Character naming
Characters will have a first-name and an optional surname (last name).[204]
- Character names are unique per server realm.[205]
- Character name changes will be possible during server merges.[205]
- There is a minimum length of three for a character name.[206]
- Special characters, including apostrophes and hyphens, are currently not allowed in character names.[207]
- Currently we don't allow special characters in character names (including apostrophes and/or hyphens). It's possible this changes in the future.[207] – Ry Schueller
Character names will appear on the character sheet and optionally on the character website page.[56]
Name reservations
Name reservations were rewards for backing at the Pioneer level and higher and were previously available through the Voyager plus pre-order pack.[208][209][210]
- Accounts will have name reservation tokens, that entitle its holder to reserve a name on a specific server realm when the reservation time comes. These will be able to be entered into a player's account page to secure a name for a specific realm following a wipe.[211][212]
- It would be a field essentially that you fill out in the back end of your account page for the website that would preserve based on a realm basis. So you would select a realm. You would input your reservation token essentially; and then that space would be reserved after the wipe.[211] – Steven Sharif
Name reservation availability
Name reservations are planned for late in Alpha-2 phase-3, but this is subject to change.[213][214]
- We will get back to you on when name reservations will be available. We might try to see if we can get something in place by phase three, but no guarantees there. It might not be until after.[214] – Steven Sharif
Guild name
Name of Guild displayed next to character name.[63]
Friends list
A character may add another character to their friends list.[216]
- In the future there may be a web-based or launcher-based capability to add an account as a friend, but this is not definite.[216]
Families
Families are a means to relate up to nine characters.[217][218][168]
- Family sizes are normally limited to eight characters.[217]
- Marriage increases family size by one to allow player housing permissions to be shared.[219]
- This size increase only applies if the family's head is married.[220]
- A character may only belong to one family at a time.[217]
- Leaving one family and joining another family will have a cooldown period in the order of days.[217]
- There are costs associated with family creation and maintenance.[220]
- Some costs are shared among the family members and other costs are specific to the family head.[220]
- If you can be a family member and you have a whole family owning a freehold together, it'll allow many more players to see the system and partake in it.[222] – Kory Rice
- Players can charge for access to their family via player-to-player trading, but there won't be game mechanics or UI systems around this.[223]
- The family system is not a core pillar of the game and will be changed based on testing and feedback.[224]
Family summon
Skill | Icon | Origin | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Family summon | Utility skill | Long duration cast (30 seconds to a minute) with an approximate 30 minute cooldown that slowly summons each of your family members to your location (up to eight members).[225][226] Players cannot be summoned in the following cases:
|
Gear
There are multiple gear slots in Ashes of Creation.[232]
- 3 Belt slots.[232]
- 1 Mainhand slot equips a player's primary weapon.[173][236][237][171][238][235]
- 1 Offhand slot can equip shields, spell focuses, sigils, and dual weapons.[173][239][235]
- 1 Potion/Pouch/Scroll slot.[234][240]
- 8 Armor slots.[232][241]
- 5 Jewelry slots.[232]
- 3 Artisan gear slots.[248][232][249]
- 1 Artisan tool slot is used to equip gathering tools.[250]
- There may be a specific slot for musical instruments, but this has not been finalized yet.[251]
- Previously it was stated there were 16 gear slots.[241]
- Gear is not subject to inventory weight limits.[252]
Gear sets
Gear sets (also known as tier sets) are a part of Ashes of Creation.[257][256][258]
- Q: How often will armor be part of an entire armor set with other cosmetically matching pieces versus unique armor pieces that don't match or go along with anything else in the game?
- A: There is a balance of both set pieces and non-set pieces and usually you're going to see at higher grades within a tier are going to be more predominantly set driven; and the lower interstitial power levels of the gear for that tier are the potentially bespoke pieces; and obviously those pieces are catered around a number of different interactions, such as ones you get from quests, ones that you get from drops, ones that you can craft, ones that you get from legendary bosses, ones that you get from guild-oriented tasks, or in-game favor and unique currencies. So there's different types of acquisition models and each of them has a spattering of either bespoke pieces or set-oriented pieces; and there are even varying levels of set pieces as well. So you might have a full eight piece set, or a three-piece set, or a five piece set, depending on where it lives within the tier.[257] – Steven Sharif
- Racial appearance of gear sets is tied to the character model of that race.[259]
- It will be possible to store and swap gear loadouts with a single button press when out of combat.[252][232][260]
- Approximately 49 unique gear sets were obtainable in Alpha-1 from crafting, quests, drops and exploration.[261] These were unique sets with different stats, but some may be similar in appearance.[261]
- There are passive abilities that can be chosen to become more adept with certain set types.[258]
- There will be viable non-set builds.[262]
Best-in-slot items
A design goal for Ashes of Creation is to not have overarching best-in-slot items (BiS) that are meta for all situations.[263]
- What is considered best-in-slot is based on a character's role and the type of encounter they are facing.[263][264]
- There's still going to be customization within realms for your archetype that you will want to spec into, knowing you're going into a certain fight, or into a certain raid, or into a certain war, or whatever it may be: and you may want to spec specifically and gear specifically and have people set up in a way that makes the most sense for that.[265] – Margaret Krohn
- Crafted items are considered best-in-slot in Ashes of Creation.[266] Previously it was stated that crafted items will be on-par with best-in-slot items.[267]
- Instanced content will contain scripted and difficult boss fights that drop gear, but the gear drops will not be best-in-slot. These can only be found in the open world.[268]
Gear appearance
- Gear is intended to be realistic in appearance.[269][270][271]
- Armor will not be overly sexual in appearance.[269][271]
- I'm more of the mind that it wouldn't really serve a purpose to have bikini plate armor, just in like reality, if you're going to have armor, it should be protective. I think from a fashion statement is enjoyable for some people, but it's a an immersive issue.[270] – Steven Sharif
- Some armor and costumes will be more revealing than others, but there will not be nudity in the game.[273]
- There might be sliders, but there are not gonna be naked sliders.[273] – Steven Sharif
- Each race is getting its custom geo pieces, which then will share thematic components such as color palette, attachments, design filigree. Those types of things will get shared across the geo but generally you're going to see unique races with unique geo.[277] – Steven Sharif
- The appearance of crafted gear is influenced by its rarity.[278]
- Crafters are able to influence what their crafted items look like.[280][281]
- Cosmetics can be used by all races but there may be slight variations to make them work with the body builds of each race.[282]
- Dye cosmetics can be used to change gear colors.[283][284][285]
Appearance slots/Transmogs
Gear will have appearance slots (Transmutation/Transmog/cosmetic slots) that are used to copy the appearance of an item (in some cases).[75][289][258]
- We have a very extensive GDD on transmogging and the ability to customize your visual appearance of sets. And, in order to still maintain the player threat assessment capabilities, we intend to provide a buff that lives on a targeting plate, should you be targeted by an opponent, that indicates to them kind of gear type composition, but not necessarily what gear specifically it is.[75] – Steven Sharif
- There are rules when applying cosmetics to specific items, unlike costumes, which don't have level restrictions.[290]
- Cosmetic slots can be toggled on or off on their character by the player.[291]
- Cosmetics, whether purchased from the shop or earned in game, are an important component of MMORPGS I personally enjoy; and there's a lot of collectors out there who spend a great deal of time either in-game achieving these things or spend money purchasing them from the cosmetic only marketplace; and we don't want to demean or reduce that achievement or that expenditure. So it's going to be situational where the default appearance will be applied and can be activated.[157] – Steven Sharif
- A default player appearance may be automatically applied during sieges, PvP events, or other large-scale battles to improve client-side performance.[292][157][158][159]
- When you enter into a siege environment, when you enter into a PvP event you are then able to utilize the default player appearance perspective, which removes cosmetics and removes specific gear visuals and instead gives a basic appearance for each armor type, whether it be cloth, plate, or leather. This obviously cuts down on the rendering performance issues that can occur in high density battles.[292] – Steven Sharif
Attachments
Attachments are able to be unlocked as flair pieces to armor to create a customizable look.[293]
- There will be hundreds of attachments available ranging from a small clasp to the front plate of a breast plate.[293]
Gear appearance priority
Players can set the appearance priority for the items they wish to show in their Back and Belt slots.[234][240][294]
- Only one item can show at a time, and that is determined by player choice.[235]
- Some ranged or melee abilities require a specific weapon to be equipped. Weapons that are equipped in the character's ranged or offhand slots will automatically swap in and out as required by the skill.[173][236][237][238]
- Players may toggle back and forth between using their ranged and melee slot for basic weapon attacks.[173]
- Idle animations will be selectible by players in the character creator.[109]
Progression
Progression occurs through a variety of pathways.[295][296][297] The goal is to provide both vertical and horizontal progression.[298][299][300][301]
- Having the ability to gain power at a sacrifice... That's a way to reach a horizontal type of progression. It may not be entirely, because there could potentially be a meta if balancing isn't done correctly; but the objective there is to make sure we have both vertical and horizontal progression in the game.[300] – Steven Sharif
- Progression in certain systems, such as social organizations, religions, and node citizenship can be reset due to player choice.[295]
- They're predicated on other player behaviors and activities that could either set back or advance progression in those realms. And then players can also switch out of these progression paths because they're exclusive, such as social organizations, religions, and node citizenships. Those all have progression paths as well, but you can opt-out and join someone else and redo that progression path.[295] – Steven Sharif
- Different progression pathways are designed to suit different playstyles.[296][302][303][297]
- Multiple playstyles should be relevant and viable. Additionally, you have a spread between casual players and hard-core players; and most of us exist somewhere on that spectrum. The progression path in a society or religion is more conducive to the time we have to play. Whereas, someone else may be playing several hours a day, and they have a better opportunity for the raid/level progression that might require some more dedication. So we want to have these different progression paths available to accommodate the different times in our lives that we have to play the game. And all of those types of progressions will make us relevant in some way shape or form to the general world.[303] – Steven Sharif
- Progression pathways in Ashes of Creation are per-character.[84]
- The way that Ashes is constructed is there are multiple paths of progression from a from a PvX perspective, a wide net perspective that players have interest in; and you're not going to be able to become the master of everything. So you're going to have to pick and choose, but even picking and choosing that gives you a place within that aspect of the world at a place that's going to be something that you can build up a reputation around.[296] – Steven Sharif
- The ratio that various progression systems influence player power will evolve over time. In the early game adventuring level may be the dominant influence on player power. Gear may become more influential on player power closer toward endgame.[304]
- Q: Could you explain in detail what you mean by 50% of player power when talking about gear influence on player power?
- A: That's just a general allocation of what players can expect to pursue when enhancing their player character power. Now obviously, the distribution and ratio of those types of influences, whether it be itemization, whether it be level, whether it be, augments choices, and/or skill tree choices: those influences and ratios change through the leveling curve. So, at lower levels your character level is going to be more influential over character power than itemization will be, but at endgame or higher levels, or at the end of the adventuring level progression, that's when itemization really gets an emphasis for its ratio of player power.[304] – Steven Sharif
- Repetition will not be part of progression in Ashes of Creation.[305]
- The game hosts a wide array of progression paths, and some of those paths will grant additional paths to augmenting your threat generation. This can be in the form of enchantments and stats ... and even in the form of augments granted from societies and religions. Gear and skills choice are also a big component.[306] – Steven Sharif
Character level
Leveling a character's adventuring level is a one of many different progression pathways in Ashes of Creation.[308][299][309]
- Leveling: the act of of going out and adventuring, of killing monsters, and combat in general is the most tactile and moment-to-moment type of gameplay that you're going to experience in Ashes of Creation; and I think at every step of the way in that adventure it should be fun, and it should be something that you enjoy doing, and it should be something that's rewarding, and it should be something that teaches you more about the immersive world that you're in and allows you to follow a compelling storyline.[310] – Steven Sharif
- Players will have the option to rush their vertical progression to level cap or spend time building infrastructure through horizontal progression.[298][299][300][301]
- We will be on the grindier side of what probably most modern MMO players are accustomed to; and that is a bit of a call back to a more old school approach, of which you will find many callbacks in the design for Ashes.[308] – Steven Sharif
- Experience (XP) is gained through a variety of vertical and horizontal progression paths, such as PvP, PvE, Exploration, Gathering/Processing/Crafting, Events/Quests, Grinding mobs.[315][299][316][317]
- XP will be awarded for participating in objective-based PvP on a diminishing returns basis.[316]
- A character's level is visible to other players.[70]
- Some levels may offer more rewards than others.[318]
- I think you can emphasize some levels more than others and that's a great way to do progression. But I think ultimately that you should see a reward for your progress or effort spent.[318] – Steven Sharif
- There will not be level boosts or auto-leveling (AFK leveling).[319][320]
- As part of our ideals as a game we're not going to give boosts away. We're not going to auto-level up a character. You have to spend time acclimating yourself to what this game is, to what the world that you're part of is; and that's an investment- a time investment; and that plays towards our ideas of risk-versus-reward; and I've always said our game's not going to be for everybody and that's okay.[319] – Steven Sharif
- If I have a skill that does a thousand damage to a target of equal level I don't want my skill to do zero damage to a target that's five levels above me.[321] – Steven Sharif
- A player could in theory level to max level at a single node, providing that node was at a high-enough stage, but it would not be the most effective means of leveling.[322]
Level cap
The level cap at launch is expected to be level 50.[311][323][324]
- My current approach in balancing leveling through 1 through 25 is roughly 100 hours of gameplay is what it takes to get to level 25. Now that is not a linear curve. This is something obviously where we want to get players quickly to let's say level 10, or level 15, or whatever and then it starts to slow down.[312] – Steven Sharif
- On release the developers anticipate max level should be attainable in approximately 225 hours (45 days if playing 5 hours per day). This is expected to be "grindier" than most modern MMOs. Leveling speed will be evaluated based on testing and feedback.[308][311][312][313][314]
- My idea there might be a bit more on the grindy side. This is obviously subjective, but but I think it ties in again to that risk versus reward philosophy. We're spreading out also things that can contribute to leveling. It's not all just through grinding: There's quests, there's artisanship, there's gathering, there's PvP. Those things all contribute to gaining progression experience. And, there's a lot of different dials along the progression path that people have the ability to interact with, whether it be their weapon level progression, or their adventuring class progression, or their artisanship level progression. There's areas where players are going to be distributing that focus.[312] – Steven Sharif
- The developers estimate that players will reach level cap before a quarter of nodes reach Village (stage 3).[323]
- Alpha-2 phase-1 is expected to have a max level of 25 for both adventuring and artisanship professions.[325][326] This is expected to increase during Alpha-2 phase 3.[327] Previously this was stated to be level 30.[328]. Level 35 was expected prior to that.[329][330]
- Alpha-1 had progression to level 15.[261]
- The developers expect that lower level characters will have usefulness in mass combat (such as Node sieges) that is not directly dependent on their character level, such as manning siege weapons, helping repair fortifications, bringing proximity-based buffs to key positions, using stealth or scaling walls.[331]
- The idea is not to be a game where somebody can essentially no life for a week and be max level. The idea is to incorporate some significant chunk of time but still respect the casual player, because the way we respect the casual player is not everything is driven in our game through the adventuring progression line. Not everything is driven through your class level per-se. There's a lot of different progression paths that are available and make you relevant within certain systems and mechanics within the game; and some of those paths are more casual friendly and some of those paths are more hardcore friendly. So with regards to the adventuring class, the idea is to make sure that investment needs to be pretty significant and that the reward then is respective of that investment.[313] – Steven Sharif
End game
Ashes of Creation will not have a typical end-game where content is essentially static and repetitive. Instead, max-level characters will be able to engage with many different gameplay loops that open up based on how the world progresses over time.[332][333]
- Endgame to me communicates static. It is static structure. Okay, you've entered this loop, now and this is your end-game loop that you will repeat over and over. Whereas instead, the approach for Ashes is you have now reached a point where all of these loops are relevant; and the loops are present to you depending on how the community engages the world. And it's up to you to identify the most promising loops because you have a finite amount of time and resources in which you can engage with them. And that's then where strategy becomes a part of the picture: How will I choose to engage with these loops to maximize my return, or to maximize the specific benefit I wish to bring in individual, group, myself, or guild.[332] – Steven Sharif
- Part of the whole experience with nodes is that there is no real end-game, in that the world is constantly shifting every day. Month one is going to be really different from month two; and that's for the level 50s and level 1s.[333] – Jeffrey Bard
Class progression
Class progression in Ashes of Creation proceeds as follows:[334]
- Players receive skill points as they level. These can be used to level up skills within their skill tree.[339]
- It will not be possible to max all skills in a skill tree.[339]
- A player may choose a secondary archetype when they reach level 25.[340][334][335] The combination of primary and secondary archetypes is referred to as a class.[335][338][341]
- The secondary archetype does not provide additional skills.[342]
- Secondary archetypes may be changed, but not "on-the-fly".[337][343]
- The player can then augment their primary skills with effects from their secondary archetype.[335][336]
- When thinking about how augments work, they represent the core function of the archetype that you're then getting augment schools for.[344] – Steven Sharif
- Class progression does not relate to a player's artisan progression.[345]
- World events do not directly impact class effectiveness but there may be ancillary effects in terms of availability of equipment, enchantments or tattoos.[346]
Artisan progression
Artisan level | Artisan certification | Profession limit per character |
---|---|---|
1-10.[350][250] | Novice.[347][351] | 22.[347][348] |
10-20.[352][250] | Apprentice.[347] | 5.[347][348] |
20-30.[352] | Journeyman.[347][349] | 4.[347][348] |
30-40.[352] | Master.[347][349] | 3.[347][348] |
40-50.[352][353] | Grandmaster.[347][349] | 2.[347][354][348] |
Artisan progression occurs based on experience (repetition of tasks) as well as achievements of certain benchmarks within each artisan branch (Gathering, Processing and Crafting).[356][357] Progression in each artisan profession is per-character.[358][359][360][90]
- All 22 professions, the players get to be novice of; and then it starts narrowing from there. So, after that you'll only be able to be apprentice of five things. You can be a journeyman in four things. You can be a master in three things; and you can be a grandmaster in two things. So you'll need to narrow, but you can also diversify to support the professions that you want to first push further in.[348] – Kory Rice
- Progression to each "tier" within a profession grants skill points that can be utilized in a character's artisan skill tree.[362]
- Artisan certification quests must be completed to gain proficiency in that tier of artisan progression.[356] Completing certification unlocks benefits for that profession, such as artisan tools for gathering professions and recipes for crafting professions.[363][364]
- There are limits to the number of professions at each certification tier across the three artisan branches.[347][354][365][348][366] For example: a character may only ever be a Master in up to 3 professions and Grandmaster in up to 2 professions across all artisan branches.[347][354]
- Grandmaster artisans can max out their entire profession skill tree, but a character can only be a grandmaster of up to two professions.[367]
- Achieving an artisan certification in a profession also implies that the character also achieved any lower-tier certifications up to that point.[368]
- If you are grand master in that profession you can max out the entire tree. But you can only grand master 2 things.[367] – Kory Rice
- Choosing a specific path in the skill tree allows the player an opportunity to specialize in a certain area. This encourages player inter-dependency, enhancing the artisan experience.[369]
- Artisan progression does not directly relate to progression in a character's adventuring class, but is designed to be complementary to character progression.[370] Additionally, there are requirements that take into account dangers, locations, toolsets, and surveying options that are level dependent.[371][372][345]
- Characters gain XP as they progress their artisan professions, but it should be expected that some artisans will have significantly higher artisan level than their adventuring level.[315][364][371]
- Choice of profession does not affect a player's stats.[374]
- Artisan classes and their professions are not affected by a character's religion, or class.[21][25]
- Race likely won't affect the artisan system.[21][25] Certain influences may instead be housed in a background selection that isn't intrinsically tied to race.[21]
- When it comes to balancing a system that's something that we do during testing phases. When it comes to architecting the system itself and identifying the areas in which certain certain professions excel, where they interact with ancillary systems, their interconnectivity across the artisanship system as a whole, the important part there is to identify how that the interconnectivity lives with the other professions in the artisanship system. And what type of reliance you have on particular professions to complete the path of crafting or introduction of new items into the economy.[359] – Steven Sharif
- Q: In regards to character level and artisan level. We know that currently there are two separate things. That being said, what prevents a player from staying level one and partying up with a level 50 player to then gather level 50 resources in the high zones? That way, anyone who wants to take those resources will have to kill the gatherer who is level one and get a large amount of corruption for killing a level one as a level 50.
- A: Gathering higher level resources requires significant advancement within a particular profession for that gatherable resource. So, if I'm a Miner and I want to access the highest possible mineral, I need to be a master miner; and in order to achieve the master minor status I am going to be gaining adventuring level experience through that process, because many of those quest lines, many of those achievements are facilitated through quest lines. Some of those quest lines interface with adventuring difficulties that are out in the wild at certain levels. So that's going to predicate me- that's going to be a predicate for me to achieve a certain level in order to complete some of these quest lines and achieve that master status. So you will you will likely not see the ability of a level one alt character having the access to high level mineral mining, or any other type of gatherable out there.[371] – Steven Sharif
Religion progression
Progression within a religion unlocks benefits to that religion's members.[375][376][377]
- Religious progression is based on quests that are only offered to followers of that religion.[375][376]
- Religions have a ranking system based on a player's performance in these quests and the number of quests completed.[376][378]
- Changing religion will cause loss of progress in a player's previous religion.[376][377]
- Religions can become patrons of a node.[375]
- When we talk about a particular patron religion of a node, or certain relics that can be acquired, or certain progression in title and rank for players that they can invest in; and that investment requires successful execution of certain narrative portions; and then upon doing so, now they have access to unique vendor tables that intersect with a slice of the economy that provide unique areas where players can corner a market, because they progress to a certain level within the religion.[375] – Steven Sharif
Mariner classes (also referred to as boatsmanship classes, boatsman skills or seamanship) contain different skill trees arranged in a similar manner to Artisan classes. As a player gains experience in these different skills they become more adept at using them.[379][380]
- Interaction with attachments, such as gunnery.[379][380]
- Piloting/driving the ship.[379][380]
- Ship navigation.[379][380]
- Utilizing ship components, such as furling the sails.[379][381]
- Ship repair, such as the speed and amount of health restored.[379][380]
- Defensive skills.[380]
- Utility based skills.[380]
- The benefits of having Mariner expertise is not just related to activities you can do on the ships, but will also incorporate skills that become available when you're piloting ships as well. There's a few things that Mariner classes provide: interaction with attachments on the ship, driving the ship itself, utilizing the ship's components—like furling the sails or not—as well as repairing ships when damage is taken—the speed at which you can do it, the health you regenerate when you do it.[379] – Steven Sharif
Guild progression
Guild progression occurs through participation in different systems.[382]
Guild progression grants skill points that the guild can allocate to unlock aspects of their guild skill tree, such as passive skills, augments and membership count.[382][384][385]
- Guild size can be traded off for guild progression.[386][382][387][388]
- The higher the guild's member cap, the fewer available skill options will be available to that guild.[386][389]
- The maximum size for a guild that chooses all available skill options will be between 30 and 50.[390]
- When you first form a guild and you're level zero, you may have 30 guild slots available to you and that's your core guild group; and you can move people in and out of that group because when you get expansion slots they form separate groups in the guild structure that might be a Knight or Squadron group: whatever you're going to want to call it, because you can customize it based on the guild; and then those groups will have access to certain types of passives. Some of the passive types will be horizontal, some will be vertical; and it will be dependent on where you as a guild member are placed within those groups; and the placement within those groups are determined by the guild administrators. And so, guilds will then spend currency as well as skill points to invest in those passives for those particular groups; and so what we want to do is we want to maintain the strongest passives for the central groups and allow it to decrease in power going outward from there. So, even guilds that select to go expansionist still have some passive abilities that they can spec into, but the guilds that choose to stay smaller they can consert their skill points towards the more central groups leveling up those passives to higher strengths; and those passive types are things like waterfall stat augments, crit rate, regen values. And then they can get a little bit more intricate with the types of effects that they have, like negating a... spell attack against you as a target every 30 seconds, or something. It depends on what we're talking about with the abilities. They they are wide ranging, but the intent is for them to be impactful.[386] – Steven Sharif
- Guild passive skills are assigned to specific ranks within the guild, each of which has a number of slots depending on guild progression.[386]
- These skills can increase certain waterfall stats such as (Regen and Crit rate) relating to that rank's ability to perform in combat or potentially in other aspects of the guild, such as the economy.[386][382]
- Guild passives can have also have more intricate effects, such as negating certain attacks within a cooldown period.[386]
- Guilds cannot respec their skill points once allocated. This is subject to testing.[391]
- Guild members do not need to be citizens of the same node in order to benefit from passive skills and augments.[392]
- It's not always going to be combat. You could have an economic focus guild. You could have a trade oriented guild; and there's all sorts of things that you can put together and give your guild its own identity.[382] – Jeffrey Bard
- Guild halls can be unlocked at a certain stage of guild advancement.[384]
- Guild augments may apply at the upper tiers of guild progression.[382]
Social organization progression
Social organization progression is achieved through accomplishing tasks or quests within that social organization.[393]
- Some progression is static, but more competitive achievements will be seasonal, based on a ladder system.[394]
There are hierarchical paths pertaining to specific questlines for the organization's thematic.[393] These quests will either be cooperative with or adversarial against other nodes based on their mutual war status.[395]
- - For example, a Thieves' guild may have objectives and quests toward securing a particular item to enable players to advance within the organization.[393]
- Social organizations are going to have questlines that players participate in which some will include sabotage, espionage, intrigue... While it's not necessarily player versus player in the combat sense, it is player versus player in pitting communities in those organizations against each other in a competitive atmosphere, where only some things can be accomplished by certain communities; and not everybody can succeed at a particular task. So, I think that that's a unique way to involve meaningful conflict that doesn't necessarily have to relate to PvP, because obviously we have a lot of PvP systems in the game and and there are many ways for players to participate in player versus player combat; but we also want to make sure that from a progression standpoint, from a system standpoint there are going to be abilities of individuals to follow these questlines, these tasks that will pit organizations against each other, specifically from an organizational standpoint.[396] – Steven Sharif
Character rewards
Characters will receive rewards on their in-game birthday.[397]
- Daily rewards are not currently on the roadmap.[398][397]
Daily login rewards are something we really have to think about in terms of what we want to offer... We want the game itself to offer enough reward to log in daily rather than trying to make it an explicit like gamified reward.[397] – Jeffrey Bard
Achievements
Achievements record things of note that happen in Ashes of Creation.[399]
- Server first achievements, such as significant boss kills.[399][400]
- Guild achievements, such as guild hall ownership.[399]
- Certain titles will unlock special abilities or stats during sieges and events.[401]
- There will be a mix of character-based and account-based achievements.[402]
- There may be visible items on a character that relate to Titles or Achievements.[403]
- Players will be able to view a historical listing of mayors of a node.[399]
- The achievement System should record things of note so that people are able to etch their name, or their guild, in the history of the server; and mayorship would be one of those things.[399] – Steven Sharif
- Some achievements will be tracked across multiple server realms, not just for guilds or groups.[400]
- It redefines what the players will experience in an MMORPG to come into a wilderness that is devoid of really any structure outside of what the community creates themselves; and then what can be created can be changed, if they want to experience a storyline that's been seen on another server, but you're fighting a dragon because you're near a mountain and the other server's fighting a Kraken because they're near the coast and you want to fight that Kraken because of its drop table. If you want to meta it or because you just want that under your belt: to be the server first to take out that Kraken and you have yet to develop the node there, it's incumbent upon you to manifest that in the game.[404] – Steven Sharif
Titles
Titles are unlocked by achievements in aspects of the game.[405]
- Social organizations.[405][406]
- Religions.[405][407][401][408]
- Guilds.[405]
- Guild castles.[407]
- Node leadership.[405][410]
- Mayor.[410]
- Priests, bishops or acolytes in certain temples.[401][408]
- Patron guild leader.[408]
- Chief bounty hunter.[408]
- Node sieges / Events
There's social organizations, there's religions, there's Mayor, there's Kings and Queens, there's Guild Leaders, there's Guild officers: All of those can incorporate particular types of titles that grant you access to certain things; and that's part of our risk versus reward. That's part of our not everybody gets a trophy. These are achievements that we want you to strive for and there's plenty of those types of achievements within the game because there's lots of nodes and there's lots of different pseudo factions that exist that you get to identify and say "Oh I'd like to do that particular thing very well and better than others." And you can strive to do so.[405] – Steven Sharif
Metrics
Ashes of Creation gathers tracking data to facilitate achievements, titles and other accolades on a server realm.[411]
- Number of successful siege defenses.[411]
- Number of successful siege assaults.[411]
- Number of PvP kills.[412][411]
- Number of PvP deaths.[412]
- Raid participation points.[411]
- Number of firsts.[411]
Visibility of those types of things on the server help to promote a competitive atmosphere. If there is an attainable impression that you can work towards, so that others know your success, you have more drive to succeed.[411] – Steven Sharif
Account management
The account management page is used to assign or reassign cosmetics to characters within an account.[87][414][88][89]
- Cosmetics can be reassigned to other characters (alts), but can only be active on one character at a time.[87][88][89]
- There will likely be a cooldown for reassigning cosmetics between characters.[87]
Player to player trading
There is player-to-player trading in Ashes of Creation.[415][416][417][418][419]
- Q: Will Ashes of Creation have player-to-player trading? Will there be anything stopping me from gifting a friend that's fresh to the game a bunch of in-game money to help them get on their feet quickly?
- A: There won't be anything to stop you from doing that.[418] – Steven Sharif
- Player to player trading, interacting with vendors or NPCs, and the ability to access storage is disabled for corrupted players.[420][421][422]
- The nature of player to player trading already introduces that in an open economy game... that is why we have measures to attempt and heat flag suspicious transactions, active gms and other honeypot systems/agents that will be active in discovering those types of cheaters.[417] – Steven Sharif
Mobile/web companion app
A companion app (mobile app/web interface) allows players who are not logged into the game to have authority over certain services and mechanics.[427][428] Some functionality may come post-launch.[429]
- Crop rotations.[428][429][430]
- Player stalls (Kiosks).[429]
- Mayoral duties.[429][410]
- Pay taxes.[429]
- Fishing (potentially).[429]
- Parlor games (Tavern games).[429][431]
- World event notifications.[429]
- Node citizenship notifications.[429]
- Player housing notifications.[429]
- Guild leadership tools such as calendar notifications is a possible feature.[432]
- Specific dates that you can have running as reminders in your guild UI, this will also be something that I would like to be available on the mobile companion app as well. So essentially you can receive notifications via a calendar update on guild events that the leaders or the officers have the ability to pin within the game will also give you notifications on the mobile app as well. That's my intention at least.[432] – Steven Sharif
- Some of it may come post-launch... but we do want people to interact with the game on their phones when they're away from the computer; and we're going to do as much as we can to make that cool.[429] – Jeffrey Bard
Character page
There is no planned in-game functionality to leave personal notes regarding player characters.[433]
- We don't plan to have in-game tools to provide that tracking. Instead you will be expected to track that yourselves.[433] – Steven Sharif
A character sheet will be available closer to live launch that shows the following:[434]
- What a character looks like.[434]
- Achievements and server firsts.[434]
- Info on a player's class.[434]
- Character's back story via journal entries (that are shared publicly by the player).[435][436]
- Traits can be applied that describe a character's history.[436]
- You will have a unique homepage for each character and that homepage will be able to be customized by the user to display unique information. It will have a small out-of-game RPG component where you can construct background and traits and stuff like that.[436] – Steven Sharif
The character page will be accessible in game by opening a browser through the UI.[435]
- That's part of the character sheet desire for us which hopefully will be accessible in game as well by opening a browser through our UI where you can get back history of a character that that character has input themselves into journal entries that they may choose to share with others... For role play perspective we want people to be in depth with their characters.[435] – Steven Sharif
The player can manage what info is shown on the character page.[434]
