    With lumen in UE5, are we going to need to bring torches, lanterns and/or magical light for dark caves and dungeons?

    Is the monster coin system still planned to be in game and will we see it during alpha 2?

    We have seen the lizard and turtle mounts, but will there be any different reptile mounts? Like serpents or wingless dragon-looking things?
  • SnekkersSnekkers Member, Alpha Two
    Whats ur estimated range of longest bow shot?
  • ItsFayneItsFayne Member, Phoenix Initiative, Royalty, Kickstarter, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    With limited items (legendary) that may be limited to one per server, what will happen to the item when that player leaves the world (rerolls on another server, quits the game, etc). Will it eventually be put back in the world loot table or be gone forever?

    Are siege and horde mode still planned, and will they be open for everyone as first planned?
  • Big BananaBig Banana Member
    With Windows finally getting Direct Storage soon, will this feature be implemented into Ashes?

    How are you going to keep taming relevent in the long run? Once Breeders get their base animals, in theory they won't need anymore.
  • xillinxillin Member, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    We've gotten lots of talk about open world bosses, but little to no info on instanced bosses. Will those boss fights be tightly tuned and scripted like WoW, FF14, or SWTOR, or the more loosely tuned and less difficult variation offered by games like ESO, GW2, etc?

    Will gliding T2 mounts have to sacrifice speed/other stats or an ability slot to keep T1 mounts relevant?
  • ThreatherThreather Member, Alpha Two
    When a player goes to hire NPC's to guard their caravan, do they hire generic NPC titles like Warrior/Archer/Mage/cleric, get a random assortment of NPC's or actually get to hire Archetyped NPC's like Tank/Summoner/Cleric?

    My name rhymes with "Feather"
  • RE4ORGEDRE4ORGED Member
    Could Steven possibly explain why so many devs are still only developing for PC? My understanding was that, Microsoft at least, was trying to minimize the code differences. Am I just misunderstanding something?

    Will the racial cities of Ren (Orcs), Aela (Humans) and Dunhein (Dwarves) be player cities, potential nodes, or has the cataclysmic event done something else to them entirely?

    note - I couldn't remember the elven city name
  • bosheanboshean Member, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    Can we get some news on Classes? Preferably Summoner information, but any news will do. :heart:
  • EriyEriy Member
    I am a fan of multiple skill bards and many skills. Can we expect more skills in the future?
  • VesonoVesono Member
    When will we be getting a look at the Tulnar? They are the race I'm most excited for.
    Also, will the orcs be able to get bigger noses? hehe. Keep up the great work guys!
  • MrWorldwide45MrWorldwide45 Member, Alpha Two
    With skill augments, will DPS classes be very involved in team strategies or will they primarily be focused on their own tactics and skill rotation?

    As an alternative to the hard-cap on profession mastery certificates, might there be an experience decay which increases as your profession's level does as a soft cap to the number of masters?

    Will there be a companion app, or some other means for guild leaders/officers to manage certain guild functions remotely?
    (Examples would be to accept, kick, promote, demote, etc.)
  • Eltharius the PrimeEltharius the Prime Member, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    Will there be an assortment of character emotes that roleplayers in Verra will get to use that show the character performing said emote, such as leaning against a wall or eating at a table, etc? Thank you :]
  • horendishorendis Member, Intrepid Pack, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    How can the races coming from Sanctus learn magic so quickly? Is it instinct or a byproduct of the gateways or something else?
  • NeurotoxinNeurotoxin Member, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    Do each race's eyes have different adaptations that help them see better or differently, like low-light vision, infrared, or implied tetrachromia as if they can see colors where others see grays?

    *This is in response to the "Would you choose to explore Verra through the eyes of this Kaelar female?" post.
  • ChaosCatalystChaosCatalyst Member, Alpha Two
    Not sure if this was asked before, but will there be local node-based player markets possible? I can imagine for example a node having a day with little shops / stands where you could buy weapons / potions! I can see that really bring a community together!
  • ghostxxghostxx Member, Braver of Worlds, Kickstarter, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    Can you provide any information on the guild and/or merchant system?
  • George_BlackGeorge_Black Member, Intrepid Pack, Alpha Two

    Since heavy will be strong against physical dmg and robe strong against magic dmg, what would make players want to wear leather armor?
  • GoalidGoalid Member, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    Village nodes and higher level nodes give out certificates for freeholds to be placed in their ZOI. If I place my freehold in a vassal node, can I get citizenship in the parent node?

    Is there any truth to the rumors that there will be a tavern parlor game called 'Six Degrees of Michael Bacon' and a Bard secondary class augment called 'My Name is Jeff'?

    Are there plans to have skills be upgraded through continuous usage rather than being upgraded with points, with each level up on the skill giving certain stat perks and other ability upgrades?
  • VertusVertus Member, Alpha Two
    What are your plans, if any, regarding the application of cape physics to both ground movement and idle movement along with clipping on mounts?

    Will some aquatic mounts have any utility skills that can be used in fishing?
  • Logan SnowLogan Snow Member, Alpha Two
    Is there gonna be a raid assist window? Its very important that the whole group can see and target what the leader of a raid is targetting in the quickest way possible. This way a raid can be efficient in dps races that happen in pvp and pve.
