Best Of

I believe you will be added to the 'Arya Faction', OP.

Great clear wishes/feedback though, no sarc.

i spent a lot of time on rogue,i love this character .but it still have some issues need to be fixed
○ [ Feint ]

1. after 8.0 update the feint is getting batter,but still have some issue need to fix,when you use this
   ability on the moving target, sometimes it will fly you away,the final location is not accurate as well.
   please check this ability on the moving target as well as The target on the rocky slope.you will find
   out what's going on. also can check the video below

○ [ Death's mark ]

1. reset the cooldown and heal my hp effect is unreliable after killed the targhet with this ability.sometimes nothing happened.

○ [ dagger design issue ]

1. i have to use 2H sword too due to its physical power rating far more than dagger. attacking speed
   attribute looks like useless,please make good balance of this two weapons.i prefer dagger for
   rogue.It feels really strange and uncomfortable for me as a rogue player to be forced to use a two-
   handed greatsword as my weapon just because of the attribute reasons. Just imagine how odd it
   would be for a rogue stealthily getting ready to launch a backstab while holding a two-handed
   greatsword. This also goes against the characteristics of the rogue class, which is supposed to be
   flexible and stealthy.
   
   I suggest that the weapon design should return to the nature of each class. For example, mages
   should use staves, warriors can use either one-handed swords or two-handed swords, and rogues
   should use daggers or two one-handed swords. I believe this kind of setting would be more
   reasonable. Another advantage of such a design is that during group PvE, there will be less conflict
   and competition for equipment requirements, allowing players to enjoy the game more.
   
   I've also seen two-handed swords that are suitable for spellcasters. In my opinion, this is really
   strange and doesn't seem to fit in well either. Please readjust the attribute characteristics of the
   weapons. Thank you so much.

○ [ camera issue ]

1. the Feint ,Grappling hook and shadow cascade ability will cause camera waggling and it will make you feel the movement is not smooth enough,pls fix that issue ,thanks .what's going on. also can check the video below https://tv.sohu.com/v/dXMvNDM2OTY0OTY1LzYzNDY5MTg2Ny5zaHRtbA==.html

○ [ weapon-switching ]

1. I hope that a function option to turn off the automatic weapon switching can be provided, because the automatic switching between melee and ranged weapons is not useful for a class like the Rogue, which requires frequent close-quarters combat and also needs to create distance. In actual battles, it often occurs that after getting close to and then distancing from the enemy, the system still defaults to using two-handed weapons. The system is unable to accurately determine which weapon you need for automatic attacks. Therefore, I hope that a function button to turn off the automatic weapon switching can be provided, or it can be directly changed so that automatic attacks are only effective for melee weapons.

This topic could be about nearly anything. Flying mounts are just the representation of the basic issue.

Some people want more fairness than Ashes of Creation is designed to provide.

This game has open world bosses, player to player trading, situations where items drop but currency doesn't, and at least three situations that have persistent, recurring bonuses with no true responsibilities.

How are flying mounts even a real problem here? They're there almost specifically for the types of people who need them to compete with other players of similar levels of organization.

The 'oppressive nobles' in the types of story Ashes is close to, need some way to actually be oppressive nobles or you don't have a story. And if this game doesn't even have Node drama, what does it actually have?

Thats the problem. Too many things benefit Mega guilds and will have negative effect on smaller guilds.
But the problem with fly mounts is that - even tho the other things are unfair against the smaller groups - you still have the feeling that you are put in fair environment, and just the number of players on the opposite side is the difference that makes the disadvantage.
With fly mounts you are put in unfair environment since small groups will never have those. So this is the response from the community about unfair game mechanic that is exclusive to Large guilds.

But what's unfair about it?

If group A has a flying mount user for scouting to check for people who might attack their caravans, group B would probably have a flying mount user to check for the caravans.

Obviously Ashes is not going to do well if the automatic best gameplay is 'I have flying mount therefore my group just raids all caravans'. You gotta believe in server politics and so on at some point. It works in L2, it works in TL, I can't think of a decent PvP game where it doesn't work at all, even BDO server politics did something for that short period before it became a PvP-fairytale game.

I've also got a long-ass explanation about how actually using flying mounts like this has a real cost, but I don't wanna derail into that one.

EDIT: Realized my first line implied it might not be unfair, that's not my intention, defining how it matters is important because AoC design doesn't care about things simply being unfair, losers are losers.

20 flying mounts in every guild? In every node? across the whole server? Wanna provide some actual information? These make huge differences.

On the entire server. And 20 is only when someone got lucky and dropped a few from the world bosses.

Birqa literally gave the source and the quotes already.
