Bosses
Bosses fall into the following types, with increasing levels of difficulty and loot tables, requiring greater numbers of players to kill.[4]
- Elites.[5]
- Hunting ground bosses.[5]
- Mini-bosses.[5]
- Dungeon bosses.[5][4]
- Raid bosses.[5][4]
- Regional/world bosses.[5][4]
- Generally in my experiences, when you have a fixed respawn time, you run into the potential situations where the powerhouses of the server can keep a particular boss on lockdown; and you don't want to create that type of a situation; and so one of the ways that we can help to alleviate that is by having windows of respawn times- and we've all experienced this in the MMOs that we've played. It's not necessarily known when exactly to coordinate with your large guild who needs to be online when; and this can give a little bit of a leg up on the competitive advantage front for other guilds that might be more smaller knit, or more niche to organize quickly in response to the time window of a respawn.[7] – Steven Sharif
- Certain bosses and creatures will have voice lines along with other audio cues.[8]
- Some bosses and encounters will feature specific original sound tracks composed by Bear McCreary.[9]
- Named mobs/bosses will usually have a unique character appearance.[5]
Nyílt világ
Az Ashes of Creation zökkenőmentes open-world élményt nyújt.[12]
- Nincs töltő képernyő / töltési idő a régiók közötti haladás közben.
Lesznek open world Dungeon-ök és Raid-ek. A cél az hogy az open world érzés megmaradjon, miközben a példányosítás előnyei is ki legyenek használva.[13]
- A példányosítás csupán bizonyos Dungeon-öknél fordul majd elő, ahol nagyobb a hangsúly a történet-elbeszélésen. Ezeket, és az arénákat leszámítva nem lesz gyakori a példányosítás.[12]
- Az open world és a példányosított helyszínek elosztása 80%-20% lesz.[11][14][15]
We're probably going to do instancing only in certain dungeons and in arenas. You probably won't see instancing too much anywhere else. What you see is gonna be what you get.[12] – Jeffrey Bard
A PvP megjelölés rendszer megnyitja a kapukat a nyílt összeütközések előtt.[16]
Raid bosses
- There will initially be between 12 to 15 raid bosses in the world.[4]
- Legendary equipment is only dropped by Legendary world bosses.[4]
- A single digit percentage of the population will be capable of defeating certain content.[19]
- There will be some in-depth raiding that has multiple stages that will be extremely difficult and... It would definitely be in the single digits of population that will be capable of defeating certain content... It doesn't mean that there won't be content available for the larger percentages as well... There should be a tiered level of content that players can constantly strive to accomplish. If there is no ladder of progression and everything is flat and all content can be experienced, then there is no drive to excel.[19] – Steven Sharif
List of raid bosses
- Brood Queen
- Elder Dragon of Flame
- Elder Dragon of the Tundra
- Elder Dragon of the Wood
- Negalith
- Tumok the Wretched
World/regional bosses
- Világ főnökök will spawn at variable locations at variable times.[21][6][7]
- The general philosophy is that respawns will be variable. We don't want to have set specific times in which respawns will occur, so that they can be camped and farmed. But there'll be variable location respawns as well as variable time respawns. And then that provides opportunities for different parties to engage at different times and locations.[6] – Steven Sharif
- World and regional bosses will scale based on the types, locations, and progression of nodes.[23][4]
- World bosses will not scale to adapt to player levels.[23]
- Some world bosses will have stages of progression, such as defeating acolytes, then lieutenants, then generals, then the world boss itself.[19]
- At each stage there is increasing difficulty. This may be parsed out into different time periods and be behind a wall of development.[19]
- A single digit percentage of the population will be capable of defeating certain content.[19]
- There will be ancillary effects that happen as a result of downing certain world bosses.[24]
- This can positively impact the land management in that area.[25]
- Around 80% of the content is open-world, where healthy competition is an instigator for player friction; for potential cooperation; for the ability to yield alliances; and the political theater that comes with it. This is an intended part of the PvX design of Ashes of Creation.[26][27][28][29][30]
List of world/regional bosses
- Adolescent Dragon of the Wood
- Adolescent Flame Dragon
- Daughter of Depravity
- It Before Whom All Tremble
- It Who Rends The Sky
- It Who Sunders The Land
- Son of Tundra
- Sorrow's Hunger
- Tumok the Wretched
- Yuna
Dungeon bosses

Elites
Elites are a tier of mob or boss in Ashes of Creation.[5][22]
- Certain elite monsters that are not assigned any to any particular hunting ground will roam throughout the world.[22] Other mobs will have leashes that will cause the mob to reset if it moves too far from its point of origin.[33]
List of elites
PvE nehézség
A PvE tartalom nehézsége, mint a Raid-ek és a Dungeon-ök, önmagától változni fog az adott helyszínen, az alapján hogy a csoport a korábbi Boss-ok ellen mennyire volt sikeres.[34]
- Jobb teljesítmény egy Raid Boss első fázisaiban, nehezebbé teszi a későbbi fázisait.[34]
- Minél nehezebb, annál jobb a loot (zsákmány).[34]
- A Boss-ok és a mob-ok nehézségét közvetlenül nem befolyásolja a csoport mérete.[35]
Szint alapú szorzó
Levels, stats, or skills will not be scaled to allow low level players to participate in encounters with higher level players or world bosses.[23][36][37]
- Q: Will world bosses scale when it comes to player levels and is it based on players or the zone itself leveling?
- A: They will not scale based on player level, no.[23] – Steven Sharif
Fosztogatás
Ashes of Creation intends to use traditional loot rules, selected by the party or raid leader.[40][41][42]
- Group loot rules are defined on a per-rarity basis.[38]
- A majority of party members must vote to approve any changes to group loot allocation changes.[39]
- The developers are considering using a double-tap interaction to loot all containers within a close proximity radius.[43]
- There won't be auto-looting pets.[44]
- It will be possible to kick a player from a party prior to them acquiring loot.[45]
- Yes, technically it would be possible for you to kick a player prior to acquiring loot. However, again because we are a game that relies on social interactions, there are reputations to be had; and if you acquire a reputation as a raid leader, or as a party leader, of doing something dirty like that, then it's unlikely you'll be able to Garner the support of future party members and/or raids to lead efforts against these raid bosses.[45] – Steven Sharif
- Free-for-all.[42]
- Whoever is first to loot gets the loot.[40]
- 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.[42]
- With round-robin looting, party members take turns looting.[42]
- This is a traditional need before greed system based on dice rolls.[42]
- 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.[46]
- Bidding system.[42]
- Intrepid are investigating a potential bidding system, which allows players to bid on items instead of rolling for them.[42]
Loot tables
Loot tables (drop tables) of world bosses or dungeon bosses have a small RNG chance of dropping gear (completed items).[47][48]
- Monsters drop glint, Elemek and crafting materials rather than gold.[49][50]
- There is a much higher chance that materials and unique recipes are dropped that can be used to craft items of equitable value.[47][57][58]
- There is a small RNG chance of looting rare and legendary items or crafting materials from mobs based on the level, status and type of mob. This also applies to harvesting resources with a gathering profession.[59]
- Crafted gear is the best gear in Ashes of Creation.[60]
- Legendary equipment is only dropped by Legendary world bosses.[4]
- Stats on dropped items will vary based on the rarity of the item.[61]
- Loot tables are disabled for player controlled monsters.[62]
- Experience debt decreases the drop rate percentages from monsters.[63]
- Loot tables will likely not be affected by weather conditions.[64] This was previously listed as a possible effect.[65]
- There won't be specific loot drops for artisans.[66]
- Q: Can only one gathering artisan harvest resources from a single boss, or can multiple different artisans harvest different parts from a boss for different resources? For example, a lumberjack gets a special wood from Tumock's tree weapon, while a herbalist gathers the flowers from that same tree.
- A: We don't have the concept of harvesting from bosses. NPCs follow a reward table format, where those reward tables are global. They're not unique to particular players. So, once the NPC is vanquished, you have access to the loot container that is its corpse; and it has a static value of either materials or items that get dropped; and whatever the party loot settings are that you might be a part of, or if you're a solo player you will be able to recover those things.[66]
Loot tagging
Looting rights (also known as Loot tagging) is based on a blended tag and damage done system.[68][41]
- The first party to obtain a tag (on a mob or boss) will gain an approximately 5-10% edge over competing parties in terms of the total damage done when determining looting rights.[68][41]
- These numbers will be balanced based on testing.[68]
- At the end of the fight, the party with the highest damage done, including first tagging bonus, will be granted looting rights.[68][41]
- We have a blended approach of damage done and a tag benefit. So if you tag the boss first, or you tag the loot- whatever the loot target is first- you're gonna get a benefit in the damage overall determination. So if you need to have 51% of damage done in order to qualify your raid, or the plurality of damage done if there's even three or four raids, then tagging first might give you a five or ten percent edge. We'll play with that number- balance it based on testing, but generally that's our approach in competing loot rights[68] – Steven Sharif
- Q: If looting rights are based on a blended tag and damage done system, will there be any mechanics in place to ensure roles like tanks and healers have an equal shot even when they haven't dealt as much damage?
- A: That's the reason for the blended approach. The reason that we're doing a hybrid system between tag and damage done is for the purposes of those classes who may not be as DPS oriented as other classes. The tag system- all classes are going to have a sprinkling of immediate effects- of instantaneous casts and they can use that to tag a target, and that'll give them a modifier on the looting rights: So plus 10 or plus 15 will balance that, but it'll give them plus 10 to 15 on overall damage done if they tag the target and then their damage will make up the remainder of that percentage completion. So if I do 50 damage to a target but someone else has the tag I'm not going to be able to claim that looting right. They'll have done the other 50 plus 10 or 15.[69] – Steven Sharif
Monster Coins
Monster Coins enable players to play as monsters within the monster coin event system. This ranges from playing as a horde of zombies, to becoming a massive dragon.[74][75][76]
- During a Monster Coin Event, players will be able to activate Monster Coins, allowing them to become monsters and wreak havoc! These Events can be triggered in a variety of different ways, and in some cases they may even provide cosmetic rewards.[70]
Monster coin events are system spawned events.[75][77]
- They are structured in a way to prevent groups from gaming the system.[77]
- Monster coin events are triggered by activity in the world, such as node advancement, defeating a boss or constructing certain types of buildings within a node.[78]
- Server messages appear for players in the vicinity of these dynamic events.[79]
- The player will have a number of potential objectives they can choose to attack during the event. This may include node buildings, points-of-interest, dungeon, NPC, or other open-world objective.[71]
- When you're playing as a as a monster from the monster coin use as part of an NPC event that might be targeting a node, or other some other open-world objective or POI, or dungeon, you get to participate as a monster and your focus is completing objectives that have already been prescribed as part of the event.[71] – Steven Sharif
- Drop tables are disabled for player controlled monsters.[62]
- Monster coins only allow a character to participate in events on their own server.[80]
- NPC hate lists do not affect monster coin events.[71]
The Ancients are not going to be part of the monster coin system.[81]
- Traditionally, the Ancients are not going to be part of the Monster Coin system. These are the primary antagonists of the story. From a lore perspective, and one of the reasons why they're not a part of the Monster Coin system, is because their souls have really developed almost to the point of perfection in manipulating the Essence for more corrupt uses. They haven't quite gotten there, and who knows if they ever will, but that attunes them out of the possibility: The reason why the monster coin system is possible with other creatures.[82] – Steven Sharif
Impact on nodes
Monster coin events (Bosses) cannot destroy or delevel nodes.[83] They can disable certain buildings, services and NPCs within a node.[84][79] Node ostromok are the chief mechanic for destroying nodes.[83]
- Monster coin events do not occur before sieges.[85]
- Monster coin events do not occur during sieges.[86]
- Destruction of certain buildings during a monster coin event could have local, regional, or even global economic impacts.[87]
- For example, if the service building that got disabled was a blacksmith's building that housed a workbench, which was the only workbench in the region capable of crafting a t5 (or tier 5), or high-tier quality equipment, then of course that would have ramifications economically, as those pieces of equipment that are already readily available would raise in prices; and because there would be a issue within the supply chain of those items being introduced into the economy, you would potentially have some supply and demand changes economically and that could span regions: that could be global even.[87] – Steven Sharif
