    Excluding Caravans, are there any forms of Node to Node Public Transportation that I can engage with in the manner of a highwayman?

    Is it correct that Intrepid is building the western continent first and then the eastern continent is coming afterwards, or is that not the right way to think about the game's direction of development?

    With this being pretty much the last "real" stream before the end of alpha2 sale (if you do a recap again this year for december), I hope you provide PC requirements for A2. Or at least give a date for when you'll do so.

    In other words, the question is: what are the PC requirements for A2?

    Last stream Steven said "When stolen by attackers, the supplies become stolen/corrupted glint and/or stolen resources...", can Steven clarify what supplies would become stolen/corrupted glint? I imagine it's when crates carrying commodities are broken, but would like clarification.

    Is Bacon still on the team? Can we see him on stream again? I pretty much always miss Bacon.

    Edit: I did not know he left for Amazon Studios to work on New World.

    Will every crafting profession be able to make a form of consumable?
  • Liz_VermillionLiz_Vermillion Member, Alpha Two
    How will raw material gathering work in regard to item quality/rarity? In other games, the low level zones have leveled herbs/minerals which produces the same end product. Will we see different nodes within biomes have rarer resources or mobs that higher quality/leveled goods can be gathered from?

    Also, with the crafting mini game, what happens if you lose? Can oozes spawn for a bad alchemy attempt, or your food is poisoned when cooked badly?

    As character artisanship skills improve will RNG in the process go down.

    While there be rules regarding harassment and the like? Or perhaps areas where pvp will be disabled?

    Given how Alpha 1 had 200+ quests, approximately how many quests are in scope for the Alpha 2 launch?

    Will there be any forms of transportation on water at the start of A2? Rafts, aquatic mounts, etc?

    Please Lord and Saviour Steven Sharif could you kindly provide insights into the list of weapons that are planned for inclusion in Alpha 2?
  • BabayugahBabayugah Member, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    With the plan of PvE raiding content intending to be "in the single digits of population that will be capable of defeating certain content." Is that taking into account player friction or just the content itself?

    Will the instanced content you have planned be repeatable or just one time for story reasons?

    We know some things in AoC are going to require coordination on a large scale, like raids and node development. But, if most players/guilds are unwilling or unable to meet those coordination requirements, will Intrepid step in to make those things easier?
  • LyonLyon Member
    Could you please show some armor and weaponstats in the stream? Thank you

    hi steven
    would you consider reconsidering your decision to have 2 trades in one family?
    crafting is cool if you can manage the three stages of a trade.
  • FatalSyndicateFatalSyndicate Member, Alpha Two
    At the start of alpha 2, how many race variants will be available for nodes?
  • DawmeryDawmery Member, Leader of Men, Kickstarter, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    What is your approach towards consumables like potions? Will they have cooldowns? What effects can we expect to see from in-combat consumables?

    Can I farm mushrooms on my freehold and then turn those mushrooms into alcohol? AKA Mush-rum

    Would you consider adding a movement speed debuff for raids of more than 20 people, as part of a set of measures to counter zerging playstyle, and favour smaller groups?
  • BraydenSBraydenS Member, Alpha Two

    What is the intended interaction with HP and Mana potions in Ashes of Creation, assuming you're going to have them at all? Are they going to be big heals on long cooldowns or are they going to be smaller heals that you can use far more often?

    Will mob level keep scaling past max player level as an indicator for power level? (Like a Level 80 raid boss)

    Are resource extractors still planned or is it scrapped? If is still planned, how do they work?
  • MackArrelMackArrel Member
    hello steven
    because of the language barrier, in order to improve immersion in the game.
    can you consider not having worldwide chat per server.
    only local, group and guild chat?
  • AniionAniion Member, Alpha Two
    edited November 2023
    What plans do you have to mitigate the supply bottleneck that crafters may run into due to high-tier processing goods being gated by the much higher barrier to becoming a Master Processor, the unique combination of a player gaining control of a Freehold while also choosing to master in a processing profession, and only allowing their Family/Guild to process there?
