Big Wood! When is big too big?

edited July 2018 in Ashes Of Creation General Discussion


I was watching @Herdo video when I noticed something. He was talking about the big trees and it made me wonder. Will there be trees so big they can't be harvested by one person? It would take a while to chop down a redwood alone and how would I get it home by myself? Are there team trees that need to be harvested by a group of friends?

    While that is a magnificent specimen, it's not too damn beaucoup.

    What about trees that are big in the morning only for a short period of time, then shrink down to proper size.

     We can call it "Morning Wood Forest"

    Imagine having this huge tree, cutting it and having it fall on a bunch of players, kills them and you dont get flagged ;x

    Interesting question and interesting concept of group harvesting.  Might save it for the next Live Stream.

    There could be other team PvE things too like catching a whale or moving a large log to get the mushrooms underneath.

    Giant Redwoods have been harvested for almost a century, so it's very possible.
    It would be nice if it was a group/citizen task that supplied needed wood for winter directly to the town. I would be cool even if only the node benefited and not those chopping the wood.

    Sorry I feel slightly insecure revealing anything to a walking pile of bones, the confinement inside a crypt might have had negative effects on your mind.

    I guess it would be awesome to have some node quests that require a lot of wood. And the people either bring in that wood one by one, or a group can go for a few giant trees, and get the node quest completed quicker. :smile:

    hmm... A caravan system to move raw materials in bulk from resource nodes to refiners - Large amounts of ore, chopped trees, raw hides, etc to smelters, lumberyards, tanneries, etc.

    Might be a bit ambitious for first release but might be something to lobby for as an option in the future.

    When you are a full grown adult and you spend your time on video game forums which are or will most likely be populated predominantly by underage kids purveying sexual innuendo.

    There won't be a tree I won't be able to chop down myself especially if there's an Elf living in it!

    well, I would be surprised if you weren't hurt I mean a tree landing on anyone (mortal) would hurt ^^

    There is unrest in the forest, there is trouble with the trees...
    For the Maples want more sunlight and the Oaks ignore their pleas...

    When cutting down a very tall tree, you 'top' it by climbing up and cutting sections off as you work your way down.

    Can you cut down a treehouse?
