@@excigaming-uk I was waiting to see reactions for this one before I did more :) as more journeyman tables get unlocked I’ll do more professions (hopefully all) this phase! Appreciate it!

@@LinuZBerggren I haven’t crafted high rarity tools yet, but from crude to novice to apprentice lumberjacking axe I don’t think I noticed any change in speed now that I think about it. I’m not sure if speed ratings are on my axes though. I know quantity rating is working at least. I’ll occasionally get 6 resources from big nodes or 3 from smaller nodes. Would be nice if tools didn’t delete the old ones so we could swap between and test out the speed ratings

@@Kim-e4g4w once you hit 20 you can promote into journeyman… you can still level afterwards up to 30 I think but I don’t believe there’s any benefit currently in doing so… eventually at level 30 then 40 you can become master and grandmaster respectively. But those levels aren’t available yet

i hope. haven´t seen it by day so far. gotta go by night

@@mmo-meditation It spawned during the day, it spawns every ~4 min. If you don't see it. It's bugged

There is not Ashes of Creation footage for this specific lore unfortunately. Otherwise I wouldn't have :)

Or even concept art of King Atrax :(

@@benparker7289 I went back for phase 2 and didn’t find the piece that had no visual marker next to the water… I didn’t stay around too long to look. But I did see the golem still there! Maybe the spawn moved a bit? But I saw him chasing a group of people when I showed up

I find that deaths, although punishing, are also very comical lol

I appreciate it :)

@@heartless_gamer This already feels like a lot of content and its just early iterations, so it’ll improve a ton (hopefully) And there’s still a ton of content to get released

@@dylonnichols539 Per the phase 2 graphic they showed us a couple months ago it says 2 handed axes but I saw someone mention spears in my stream the other day so it sounds like spears are also on the table :)

@@nitrogenetica I appreciate it :)

Yes Crix!

@@DarkMitten will it cost to play the alpha on weekend? and u just can play it on weekend? i dont rly understand this did i need to buy something to play it this weekend? bc i saw something with 110 dollars

@@AndyManovic Yeah to play any part of the alpha 2 it costs $110 unfortunately. There isn’t any free alpha testing.

They occasionally do alpha key giveaways. Make sure to get in the official ashes of creation discord. With Christmas coming up i hope they some type of giveaway 🤞

@@luckygeek6875 There will be for phase 2 starting December 20th. And there will be a reset for the official launch of the game. And potentially a few resets in between if they need to

@@TheWirelessTech hell yeah brother

@@GS-el8ll I guess we’ll see the next 4 months :)

@@matrim_1337 Sometimes tough to find footage for systems we haven’t seen at all yet lol so there are some dry spots! I appreciate it :)

Jesus fucking christ dude. You don't have to participate, and if someone kills you, they get corrupted.

Well it's not a full PvP game. What games are you comparing it to though?

@@williamlaprarie3007 It is a PvX game and based off the content they have planned there should be plenty of PvE content for players to participate in. And with the introduction of the corruption system players will be turned off to open world unsanctioned PvP. And players who really want to PvP will have other avenues to do so that are sanctioned. I think Ashes will have the best of both worlds and players can find meaningful content in PvE or PvP settings without impacting players on the other side

@@williamlaprarie3007 I was killing grem the other day, kind of tried to bully my way into the spot. I'm level 10, and someone was there, lvl 4. Flagged up, and hit me. Now, obviously I could have killed him, and he knew that. But I moved along, because what lvl 4 hits a lvl 10, y'know? It was an appropriate response from him to not get bullied. He may have had a lvl 25 around the corner. But because he had the option to flag up, made that situation so unique, and very nice to experience.

@DarkMitten lol tell that to the people getting pked by people twice their level, a friend of mine has been killed several times by toxic trolls.

@@R173Y Ah, you are correct. Only nodes at the village stage that are destroyed by siege will destroy those “vassalized” nodes under it. So just those stage 1 or 2 nodes are reset that technically aren’t real nodes due to not having the possibility of citizenship! Steven says this at 1:08:10 in the developer livestream from august 26, 2022 - Development Update with New Map and Feature Discussion. I remembered hearing this and thought it applied to all stages of nodes :)

@@UncannySense Lyneth again, or whichever has the shortest queue time if Lyneth has a long wait

Wish I could give this an extra like for Paul Giamatti

Oh it's very interesting I've already found the entrance. Really cool statue can be seen from the door

Super stoked for this weekend :)

​@@DarkMitten hell yeah! 20th is actually my bday, nice to know Steven got me something special 😂

@@wassabiheat Nice! Mine's today, so it kind of feels the same. Have fun!

@@stickyrubb Thanks lol. Happy Bday

It is lore that Steven (creative director of intrepid studios and ashes of creation) has given us over the years through livestreams/interviews for the game. The ashes wiki has this information as well "tower of carphin" , "the calamity" , "king atrax"

No this is podracing

@@Mr_Folf Exactly this. The open world corruption system will lead to fun interactions in most cases. Not a griefing fest that prevents players from actually playing the game. I think people are scared of the possibility of getting PK’d but not realizing it will be a rare occurrence to them if they are just doing casual PvE things and not part of a top guild rushing for server firsts or very specific grinding spots

have u played it?

@@99Myr They’ve massively increased studio size over the past couple of years and kinda reset themselves when they switched to UE5. So I think we’ll see development ramp pretty quick, but this will be evident over the next few months with how quickly we see content added to the alpha. I think combat is great, some mobs are buggy and have delayed behaviors which can make some encounters clunky. But I honestly really like the combat and should feel great after more polish over the alpha

@@SergeantZong I definitely am more of a PvE mmo player, but I still think that the whole reason for grinding out 1000 hours of leveling and getting better gear is to become stronger than other players. So that eventual and sometimes unavoidable PvP is why we are progressing our characters. But I do think the idea of open world PvP is scarier to some people than how it will actually be in practice with the corruption system. If people are searching for PvE content in Ashes I think they will be able to avoid unwanted PvP pretty easy. I think the subscription model they plan to have on launch will be a lower barrier to entry to at least try the game for a lot of those people who think PvP will be a deal breaker for them. (And I think they’ll realize it’s not as much of a hinderance to their gameplay as they think it is)

@@DarkMitten I think there is a lot of truth in what you're saying. I'll try the game on launch and I hope you'll be right - I in no way want to hate and be closed to change, I , like many other MMORPG gamers just want a good, fresh title

the open world pvp is the only good thing about the game

I agree
