And it's even more pain because your playerbase inevitably goes back to their abusive ex WoW.

Artisan Alley (Artisan Freelancing Site)

Ashes of Creation Artisan Alley Freelancing
Hey everyone, I recently started a project in my spare time to help with artisans looking to connect with other artisans or customers. It's just a freelancing site for Ashes. This is free to use; it's just something I thought would be handy. I'm currently working on this project solo in my spare time. All of the functions should work fine. The mobile side of the site is functional, but a WIP until it looks good. If interested, check it out and DM on Discord(tacvik) with any suggestions. I could use some testers to find all the bugs I've missed.

Visit Artisan Alley!

Was just coming here to say this. Bunny hopping is annoying to see across your screen please make it costs a resource or add a slow.

as expected they didnt talk about this big ass problem

What? Firstly, this isn't a problem. With that out of the way...

They specifically mentioned the entire pipeline of how they update these and how they plan to deal with it in the future.

Did we watch the same livestream?

Re: the laucnher got my pc hostage, i just want to unstall to free up space

Hey Wozzard, totally get your frustration

From what I’ve seen, the launcher and game files usually install in one of the following locations:

C:\Program Files\Intrepid Studios\

or C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Intrepid Studios\

You might need to manually delete the folder if the uninstall process gets stuck in the update loop (just make sure the launcher is completely closed via Task Manager first).

That said, keep in mind the game still in Alpha, so stuff like this, especially around the installer and patcher, is definitely still being refined. I’m sure Intrepid will be improving the launcher experience as we move closer to Beta.

Thanks for pointing it out! Hopefully this gets smoothed out soon so others don’t hit the same wall.

Alpha Two Update Notes 0.9.2 - Wednesday, April 30, 2025

These are the update notes for changes to the Alpha Two that went to testers on Wednesday, April 30, 2025 during Alpha Two merge system testing

Merge Testing - We’re testing the merge of Vyra and Lyneth realms into Resna. During this test, you’ll be able to select between up to 10 characters in a single realm.

The character data for this merge was saved from Monday, April 28, 2025 at 8:00 AM pacific time. Character progress from after that time will not carry over.

To find out more about the Merge System Test, see the article here.

As a reminder, if you come across bugs during Alpha Two testing, please report them to us in-game using /bug

KNOWN ISSUES

Quest progress did not copy over for characters
Material storage did not copy over correct for many characters. This seems to impact mostly characters that were from the Vyra realm

Snatched by Sea Event - Increased the timer length, so there’s enough time to finish this event

Re: Female Armor Design - Spice it up! Don't be afraid.

In the end, it's a video game, not real life. The point of having different types of armors is to allow people to equip their character how they want. No one should be criticizing someone else's playstyle. The easy answer is for devs to just keep adding different armor choices for players to pick from.
