Hello there!

  • The game is subscription based, and Steven (the developer of ashes) has stated multiple times that there will be no p2w in Ashes of Creation.

    The cash shop has been quoted as offering cosmetics only. These cosmetics are non functional and come in the form of skins that can only be applied to items that have been awarded through game play.

    The coins.......now the scope of these has been kep under wraps to a degree. I have only seen them associated with monster coins (so far). The game will kick off PvE content that will attack players nodes if and when the pre-requisites are met. If and only if such monsters spawn, are players given the option to take over control of them and replace the AI.

    Steven has stated categorically on many occasions 'no Pay2win' here. But so have many companies starting out to attract customers. So its a matter of trust at the end of the day. The proof is in the pudding. The ability to buy 'virtual' currency also gives Intrepid the ability to act as a bank and set the exchange rate to whatever they see fit.

    As stated, its based on a sub model of $15/month...oh....and welcome :)
  • Welcome to the community :3 so far IS have been pretty clear on the p2w stuff and have repeatedly said that there will be no p2w in the game, who knows this could change but hopefully nothing like that will happen :D
