Ill never understand people who want to censor forums so that they can only see posts from people they agree with.

The Subject of the thread was "Druids and Mature Magic". I guess the OP edited it.
Re: Consternation surrounding the 8x8 Class system and how to move forward.
To me, the people that lack imagination in regards to this discussion are the people that want classes in Ashes to remind them of classes of the same name that they have played in other MMORPG's.
That is a complete lack of imagination - it is literally wanting the same thing you used to have. At least with Dygz, he is willing to be open to what Intrepid come up with.

Re: Fixing the Class system
I am really sick of this white knighting, "Let them make the game" nonsenes.
Making note of someone’s gap in logic is hardly white knighting.

Re: Hearthstones and Pistols: Discussion
I see from other posts that a hearthstone means teleportation.Hey Gang!
Couple questions if you have the time.
1) and easiest to answer: do you have a hearthstone mechanic planned for Ashes? I know there’s a big emphasis on travel being a mechanic in the game, but the more I think about it, the harder it is to imagine a modern game without some type of travel connivence (Flight paths or a hearthstone)
There will be a family summon mechanic to help players in a group join together when they start playing.
You will not be able to transport resources this way.
Also scientific nodes will allow fast travel
If there are multiple scientific metropolises, then an airship will provide faster travel between those scientific metropolises for citizens of those nodes and their vassal nodes, so long as the metropolises are not at war.[2]
I think the wiki matches with my expectations. A little of fast travel bit but not much.
People will be bound together by where they play more often. That is a game pillar

and lack of teleportation helps achieving that.

Re: The need for Bone Armor.
Yes, I support Necromancer Bone Armor. Let's make it happen!
But I'd just want it to be a magical spell, it doesn't need to be something craftable. But a UI to alter the appearance of it would also be kool.

Re: What are people's node & biome preferences?
This here is a very beautiful Reallife Coastline.
Damn. I hope we get to see some Coastlines around the Islands in the upper Middle Region of the World somewhere. Or in Case there are already other kinds of Coasts planned there - i don't care where. But somewhere in any case.

Re: Hearthstones and Pistols: Discussion
I'm fully in favor of blackpowder weapons. Believe it or not, there was a time in history when sword, pikes, armor, and blackpowder were all simultaneously present on the battlefield, so I don't see it as especially fantasy breaking.
I'd even be in favor of firearms without blackpowder. Make them a product of arcane engineering. Imagine a pistol that fires firebolts instead of lead.
