Introduction and questions

in The Newly Arrived
Yo! Im Zumi i'm new to this game just found out about it recently actually, I love the idea sadly I've only played 2 MMO's for a short time because of P2W aspects and i'm hoping this is a different. As for my questions I want to know if the final release will be F2P, subscription based, or one time purchase? Another question would be will there be any kind of mounts that you would be able to obtain? (really big fan of mounts for some reason) And lastly will there be big exotic swords and heavy armor?

    From what I have heard...subscription based, no mounts unless you run a castle then you get a FLYING DRAGON

    There is breeding system, so there definitely will be mounts as well. Only one person can have flying though, it had something to do with siege wars. And welcome!

    Welcome to the world of Ashes @ZumiTaco :)

    The game will be subscription based with no box cost. The monthly subscription is estimated to be around $15, but this has not been finalized yet.

    Mounts will be a thing in Ashes. You can even breed your own mounts if you take up the Animal Husbandry Artisan class!

    Yes, there will be lots of high fantasy swords and armor in the game. You might want to take a peek at some of the pre-alpha footage from PAX :)

    Welcome :)

    I would assume we get quite a variety of swords. There isn't to much concept art yet for weapons but we saw a scimitar for example.

    Other than that Lex already provided what we know to the other stuff, soooo...

    Enjoy some tea with us and may the sandal gods bless you with your own pair for your sore ridden feet of experiencing p2w. May it sooth the pain and provide hopeful outlook for our little spark of hope.

    No need to purchase game itself, 15$ per month subscription.

    There will be flying mounts yes, but those will only be available for Metropolis leaders and Castle leaders. There will be other "flying" mounts, but they will just hover a certain distance over the ground.
    ZumiTaco said:
    And lastly will there be big exotic swords and heavy armor?
    There will be big ones yes, but they are staying with a realistic style to it, rather than an exaggerated style, so you won't for example find shoulderplates that are MASSIVE in size.
