Csoport dinamika
Group dynamics aim to bring players together.[1]
One of the main philosophical pillars behind our design was that PvE must be impactful and inclusive. We want solo players, small groups and large groups to all have a home within our system.[2]
Ashes of Creation is in development. These systems could change through playtesting and player feedback.[1]
Tartalomjegyzék
Group sizes

The minimum goal is 500 players on a single battlefield. I think we will be able to hit 500vs500 but we shall see.[3] – Steven Sharif
Ashes of Creation is designed for solo players as well as large and small groups.[4][5]
- The party size is eight (8) players for a single group.[1]
- Razziák will have 40 man groups.[6]
- Content will be tailored for 40, 16 and 8 person group sizes.[7]
- Arénák will have 1 man, 3 man, 5 man and possibly 20 man Free-For-All (Deathmatch) group sizes.[8]
- Ostromok vár are expected to have at minimum 250x250 players to be on a single battlefield, with the possibility of increasing this to 500x500 over time.[3]
The idea behind an 8-person group is to allow us to really amplify party roles, and to create a need for each of the archetypes in every party.[1]
Content isn't locked behind guilds.[10]
- Mechanics exist within larger conflicts for small groups and even solo players to impact the battle.[11]
- This includes systems that will likely focus on single group sized participants while the larger battle is occurring.[11]
Experience
- Experience gained from killing mobs and bosses when in a group is divided by the number of party members based on damage done by the group (compared to any other parties attacking that mob or boss).[12]
- A multiplier is then applied that increases with the number of party members. The multiplier is between 1.3 and 1.4 (approximately).[13]
- Experience gained is not affected by looting rights.[12]
- Experience gained from quest rewards is not shared with other party members.[13]
Alpha-0 group size
The party size in Alpha-0 is six (6).[14]
Ashes of Creation Apocalypse group sizes
Group sizes in Ashes of Creation Apocalypse.[15]
- Ashes of Creation Apocalypse battle royale will have party sizes of up to 5.[15]
- Guild mode will have parties of raids of up to 20.[15]
- Ashes of Creation Apocalypse castle sieges will have parties of 5 within a raid, with 5 raids for each of the two teams.[15]
- Ashes of Creation Apocalypse horde mode will have a party size of 5 with a total of ten groups, making for 50 players.[15]
There will be an option in the lobby where you are capable of joining a guild based match that you can link parties together up to a maximum of twenty individuals.[15] – Steven Sharif
Balancing
A hatvannégy (64) kaszt felosztható nyolc elsődleges archetípusra. Az aktív képességek egyensúlya csak erre a nyolc elsődleges archetípusra vonatkozik.[16]
- Minden archetípushoz hozzá van rendelve négy csoportnyi augmentáció. Az augmentációk egyensúlya a nyolc archetípus négy-négy augmentáció csoportján múlik.[16]
Az egyensúly egy oly fontos része a kaszt rendszernek, hogy biztosra akarunk menni, hogy van betöltendő szerep minden lehetséges kombináció számára.[17] – Steven Sharif
Nem azért csinál az ember 64 kasztot, hogy aztán csak négy legyen kihasználva.[17] – Peter Pilone
Az egyensúly az Ashes of Creation-ben "csoport orientált".[18]
Lesznek olyan viszonyok 1v1 helyzetekben, ahol az egyik kaszt egyértelműen jobb a másiknál; és itt egy kő-papír-olló dinamikának kell lennie. Azt akarjuk hogy legyen ellenszer a különböző kasztok között... Így csoport egyensúlyra fog a játékegyensúly koncentrálni, ahol ha megvan a megfelelő kaszt-változatosság egy kompozícióban, akkor igazságos lesz a játszma. Nagyon is a készségen és a stratégián fog múlni.[18] – Steven Sharif
Bizonyos másodlagos archetípusok képesek "áthidalni a rést" az ellenszerük ellen.[19]
Bizonyos archetípusok képesek kezelni a rést az ellentettjük ellen önmagukban. Például ha én egy Tank archetípus vagyok, és az ellenszerem a Mage, a Mage-et másodlagosként választva valamilyen szinten áthidalom a különbséget; és az identitásomat valamelyest abba az irányba mozgatom.[19] – Steven Sharif
Group finder
There will not be a generalized group finder in Ashes of Creation, instead Bulletin boards are used to encourage localized grouping.[20]
Bulletin boards
Bulletin boards are available within nodes[20] and player taverns.[22]
- A market UI lists the current items available for sale in the node and in the same economic region.[23][24]
- This includes items for sale in player stalls and auction houses.[25]
- Players can't purchase directly from the market UI. Instead it gives the location of player stalls where the items may be purchased.[26]
- Encourage localized grouping.[22]
- Enable posting of jobs.[20]
- Quest sponsorship.[27]
Bulletin board jobs
- Dungeon delving.
- Quest related.
- Összegyűjtése.
- Task oriented.
- Unlocked story arcs.
Looting rules
Ashes of Creation intends to use traditional loot rules, selected by the party or raid leader.[28][29][1]
- Free-for-all
- Whoever is first to loot gets the loot.[28]
- Lootmaster
- A master looter (or lootmaster) is a player designated by the party leader to decide how loot is distributed in a dungeon or raid party.[1]
- Round-robin
- With round-robin looting, party members take turns looting.[1]
- Need before greed
- This is a traditional need before greed system based on dice rolls.[1]
- Since there is very little gear binding in Ashes of Creation, it's left to the party to deal with players who excessively roll Need on loot.[30]
- Bidding system
- Intrepid are investigating a potential bidding system, which allows players to bid on items instead of rolling for them.[1]
Party roles
Az Ashes of Creation-ben a hagyományos szentháromság szerepkörök találhatóak meg: Tank, DPS és Támogató/Healer.[1][31]
- Bár a hagyományos szerepkörök vannak jelen, a játékos nincs az elsődleges archetípusa által korlátozva.[1][31]
- A készség augmentációk a kaszt rendszerben elérhetőek, és megengedik hogy az elsődleges archetípuson felül személyre szabd a készségeidet.[1][31][32]
- Meg van viszont a lehetőség, hogy rákoncentrálj az elsődleges archetípusodra, az általa biztosított szerepkört tovább erősítve.[1][31]
We have our eight base archetypes; and the trinity is a pretty strong influence with regards to the eight base classes. However the area in which we actually begin to play with that line between the trinity is in the secondary classes that you can pick. That's where we begin to blend those spaces and allow people a little bit of influence over their role and whether or not they fit perfectly within a particular category within the trinity.[32] – Steven Sharif
Intuitive grouping
There are systems such as quests, events and monster coins that lend themselves toward intuitive grouping, but no specific decision has been made to include this functionality.[33]
Kapcsolatok
An affiliation tree is under development that determines which entities can participate in attacks against other entities within its hierarchy.[34]
There is guild affiliation, there's party affiliation, there's a raid affiliation, alliance affiliation, there's a citizenship affiliation, there's society affiliation, there's religious affiliation. All of these things have some hierarchy; and within that hierarchy there's the ability to participate within certain systems. So for example, if you have a node that has fallen under your vassal state and you're a citizen of the parent node, then you could participate in a siege against the vassal node but if you're a citizen of the vassal node you could not participate as an attacker against the parent node; so there's a hierarchy, unless you were to renounce your citizenship.[34] – Steven Sharif
