Will there be quick swap key binds for another weapon. For example, using the Wand for single target and swapping to a staff for AoE situations with a quick swap. Will it display both on character, because that would be cool.

as we are getting closer and closer to Q3 and still waiting on A1 spot testing, are you still confident on a Q3 A2 launch?

Re: How hard do you think it should be to get rid of corruption?
Have we forgotten that these corrupted players haven't actually murdered someone IRL?
They've killed another player in a competitive MMO.
How about just fight back and kill them instead?
It's getting ridiculous.
One small but important caveat: I am all for harsh punishment for PKs where there is a significant level difference. That is where corruption should be used to punish.

Are you planning on updating to UE 5.4 before or during alpha 2?

Imagine a dual wield bard getting double procs on buffs.

Re: Been gone 2 years, what have I missed?
4. Not sure I like the currency being limited by race. Maybe the gold or silver an still hope a base value, so you can still trade it between other races, but at a low cost.- the ocean size was increased and became a PvP zone
- number of nodes was reduced to 85. Each metropolis will have up to 12 vassals
- freeholds are limited in number and players can buy them from other players
- each 4 node types got a specific currency which cannot be traded to other players
- resources will be collected into bags of different shapes (you will not always be able to loot anything)
- certificates are called now glint and there is a corrupted version of it
- with glint you can buy commodities from NPCs and transport them with caravans to other nodes, to increase their price. Price gets higher also when origin node is destroyed
- max lvl crafting stations are: 1 in each lvl 5 node and 2 in each metropolis. So up to 15 on the map
- max level processing stations are only in freeholds
The gold still exist. They just added this new type of currency:
https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Bound_currencies
Node types have specific bound currencies that are earned through personal progression within the node.[1][2][10][3]
- Honor at military nodes for completing PvP-related activities.[1][10]
- Favor at divine nodes for completing divine questlines and story arcs.[1][10]
A bound currency that's used to purchase a number of different types of vendorable items that exist within nodes. It is not player-to-player currency. It is not intended to be traded between players, but instead it interacts with these unique vendors that supply a large segment of necessary components for a number of different things: whether it be crafting, enchantments, a lot of different things that exist within the node. This is the reason why you would want to acquire that currency so you have access to those types of items.[11] – Steven Sharif

Given Ashes of Creation is a group based game at it's core do you think new players should bear all of the responsibility of finding other people to play with or do the game systems share some of this responsibility? This is not referencing a group finder.

Re: Unreal Engine 5.4
I think we'll get the full ue5 suite eventually. No need to switch to ue6 or ue7 unless the devs really want to. However, we'd have gotten the full ue4 suite so a full ue5 suite should be aimed for. These updates can come with expansions too though.
