    Will you give us the minimum requirements for the Alpha2 before its sales end? I have an old PC and I'd prefer to keep the $250 for a better build if my current one can't even run A2.

    Will there be any weapons that heal or buff allies rather than deal damage?

    What will happen if a freehold owner isnt on for awhile but has the money on their character to pay the debts and taxes associated with their business? Will it automatically take from them until they are out of money or will it forfeit their freehold?
  • RazThemunRazThemun Member, Alpha Two
    Will there be over a dozen dungeons and/or raids to test during alpha testing?

    With the combining of two class archetypes to make a new class, how will the Cleric's healing and spell abilities be modified when combining with a melee class such as Warrior? Will they get melee attacks with a self/party heal aoe effect, or offensive enhancement buffs for their allies? Or will they adopt melee damage abilities and have separate, but modified Cleric healing/damage spells to use in tandem?

    Please elaborate.

    Can you give some detail on the gear progression gap from T3 crafting to T4-5. I think I remember it being said that T3 crafting is around lvl 30ish. Is it right to assume that T3 crafting caps your gear at this level? If so, will it limit your gameplay in anyway if your gear isn't the appropriate level, as you might not be able to access T4-5 crafting due to node progression.

    Are there any freehold building that require you to have your freehold in a specific type of location? For example, if we wanted to build a dock for fishing or boat departure, or a dry dock to build ships, can we do this if we decide to place our freehold on the water shore?

    I've been wondering if the overhead that comes from devs/artists preparing their show-pieces for the monthly streams slows down AoC's progress by an unhealthy amount. To what extent is this true, and how does the showcase picking/preparation process look like?

    What can you share about the organizations and lore that surrounds and supports the cleric archetype, given you have eight classes, that goes beyond spamming abilities to heal or harm and what is already on the wiki?

    What are the main differences between a personal Freehold and a Guild Hall/Barony?

    Examples: Does the Guild Hall take the place of a Freehold on the guild leader's account, is the Guild Hall a single building or a plot of land to place other buildings/farms, etc.?

    How many times will the Devs need to nerf the Cleric during A2 and B1 ? Office betting has already begun ! You MUST guess the correct number for both stages of development. Good Luck !

    Sorry this question is a bit long.

    Will there be a global drop table that has a chance to drop rare items. That do not have a level requirement so even a level 1 or a level 50 has the ability to get it. And these items can start a world quest.

    Is there any sort of in-game system or bulletin board planned to help connect people looking to join a family and people looking to start a family or add family members? Can alts be in the same family?

    which bonus obtain us gods ?
  • SaltariozSaltarioz Member
    Will there be caves that require light spells or torches to explore?
    Is there already a decision on how opponents will be tagged based on difficulty?

    How often will armor be a part of an entire armor set with other cosmetically matching pieces versus an armor piece that doesn't match or go along with anything else in the game?

    F2P or not, I have quite a distaste for Battle passes (companies usually use them as a cheap replacement for in game events ) and id like to know if you are planning on adding battle passes to the game?
  • DraktarDraktar Member
    Will there be any icon to press and use the basic attack, instead of clicking with the mouse button?
  • RhynedahllRhynedahll Member, Alpha Two
    For Alpha 1, the server population limit was 1,500. IIRC, in 2018 Steven said that the goal for max concurrent players was 8 to 10 thousand. What progress has been made towards that goal to present and what population limit is expected for Alpha 2?
  • CelasCelas Member
    Will there be a possibility to lock the camera with a keybind to avoid having to permanently right click on the screen to be able to turn the camera? (Archeage system camera was a real pain for my hand to deal in PVP...)
  • MicoMico Member, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    With so many different healing archetypes, how will you create meaningful individuality without blending extensively between classes?

    You mentiones closing on you capacity for servers for Alpha 2 launch (the reason for stopping the sale of access in the future). How many servers are you planning to have avalible at the start of alpha 2, in what regions are they gonna be located (like only US or some EU servers) and what is maximum CCU you are planning to be able to accomodate with or without the addition of new ingame regions?
  • XenotexXenotex Member, Alpha Two
    It was recently mentioned that Rogue and Bard (subject to change) will be available for testing at the beginning of A2. If internal testing has begun with these archetypes, what are some of the balancing challenges that the team has experienced?

    Are node artifacts items that can only be found through quests or are they an item that players may be able to find at any time?
  • AlmostDeadAlmostDead Member, Alpha Two
    Will it be possible for a Cleric to spec into a viable dps role with the right choice of secondary archetype and skill points?
