Guild termek
Guild termek serve as a focal point for a guild, offering a host of benefits and customization options.[2]
- When a guild reaches a certain level, its guild master is granted a certificate to enable placement of a guild hall.[3]
- Guild halls may be placed within Baronies within the ZOI of a node.[4]
- A barony can only have a single guild hall.[4]
- The number of baronies that can have an active guild hall is determined by the node's stage.[5][6]
- Only a limited subset of the guild halls available around the node are available concurrently... So you might only have two that might be available at fifth level and then three at sixth level of a node; and the guilds have an opportunity to select from the six available which three are going to be active.[5] – Steven Sharif
- Patron guilds may also place their guild hall within (the footprint of) their patron node. These guild halls have different perks and benefits to halls placed within Baronies.[7][3][8][7]
- Patron guild halls placed within Baronies may have the ability to confer benefits to surrounding estates within that node by speccing into passives in their guild skill tree and carrying out a lengthy quest line.[9]
- The design of guild-halls is currently subject to active iteration by the developers.[10]
- Guild halls can only be destroyed by a successful node siege. This contrasts with guild fortresses, which can be sieged in a guild war.[3][11][12]
- Guild halls are objectives in guild wars.[11]
- A guild hall only houses a single guild.[13]
Benefits
Guild termek unlock actions a guild can perform within a node.[14]
- Allow guilds to participate in the shareholder system.[14]
Guild housing
The term "guild housing" refers to guild buildings and not guild owned player housing.[15]
Guild várak
Guild várak are siegable guild halls within Ashes of Creation. These are different from nodes and castles.[12]
- Guild fortresses are objectives in guild wars.[11] These are contested on a regular basis.[3]
- The developers will decide if guild fortresses will be implemented in the game or shelved.[3]
- The fortress design is also something that might be on the shelf. We haven't decided yet. We're going to look into it, but the idea behind the fortress is that this is a competitive guild hall so to speak where you have to contend for it on a regular basis so to speak; or can be taken from you necessarily. Whereas the guild hall is a structure similar to freehold structure can only be taken through successful sieges against a node per-se are not taken but destroyed.[3] – Steven Sharif
Guild várak
Five guild castles exist in Ashes of Creation.[18][17][19]
- Each of the five castles has its own static layout. Castle siege defenses include deploying traps and blockades within the castle, as well as hiring mercenary NPCs to defend specific locations.[18][20][21][22]
- While the hard structural environment is static and not able to be- you're not building a castle if you own a castle, you're inheriting a historic ruined castle that is representative of the past because it has some tie-in to specific types of powers that we haven't gotten into from a lore perspective yet but we haven't expressed to the community. That's something that we're going to leave for the community to find out when they play. But when you place mercenaries and you place those blockades and you place those traps, that affects the level design of the castle according to the strategy you might use to defend it.[18] – Steven Sharif
- Ostromok vár occur in the open world but may become instanced based on testing.[23]
- There is one castle located on an island that is able to be affected by naval combat.[27][28]
- Castles will initially be occupied by an NPC adversary. These are the primary antagonists in the storyline. Céhek have a period of time to level up in order to siege these castles.[29][30]
- These Castles are occupied when players arrive on Verra, and their current inhabitants will have to be removed before any player can claim them. Castles will be dangerous and high-level raid zones until they can be cleared, and the first group of players to do so will gain the Castle as their reward.[17]
Benefits
Guild várak provide benefits and trophies for guilds that capture and control them.[16][33]
- These benefits increase the longer a guild holds its castle.[16]
There are levers and dials that are present to both the owners of Castles as well as the elected officials of Nodes that during their administration they have the ability to impact and influence the region around them.[34] – Steven Sharif
Guild castles exert a King or Queen's presence over nodes within their region.[16][34][35]
- Levy taxes for the purposes of defense (additional to taxes already imposed by node governments).[16][35]
- Activate events and abilities that benefit node citizens under their rule.[16][35]
- Establish special relationships with Mayors to help build up the three dedicated castle nodes.[16]
- Unlock additional types of buildings in nodes.[35]
- Exert control and pressure over one of the five economic regions.[16]
