I know it's still in Alpha one, and Alpha two is coming, but that's about it. So fill me in, ok please. Also, yes I will be reading the forums, but I will be coming back here for any help to get the info I am looking for. Thx for you time guys. Been a tough two years.

Price gets higher also when origin node is destroyed - max lvl crafting stations are: 1 in each lvl 5 node and 2 in each metropolis. So up to 15 on the map - max level processing stations are only in freeholds

The monthly Presentations/Live-Streams of Ashes of Creation since August 2023 are absolutely delicious. Okay maybe before as well but i am to lazy to watch them, s~ooo ... ^.^ ... x'D You made a good Call doing a Break of at least two Years. I bet most People should do that. As the waiting Time for this awesome Game seems to want to compete with things like Duke Nukem Forever, Star Citizen, or Yandere Simulator. x'D ( Please nobody stone me for mentioning those. Okay maybe a little. ) I haven't even seen all "Sets" (Clothing, Armor, etc.) that is in the Game in Development, but many of the Insights i had since August 2023 are absolutely amazing. Roleplayers will enjoy this Game. The different Seasons as well. You can have nice, long Videos to watch in Case you are curious. And since Alpha Two is about Three Months or so away, it isn't also an Eternity away to see new Tests in Action.

The Dev timeline hasn't accelerated or decelerated too much. Full release still maybe 2 or more years away. Some questions answered, some not. The waiting crowd has basically been kicking rocks down the road. Which reminds us the world keeps revolving without us. While your absence sounds unfortunately forced, I think it's good to take a break when you can too. Find time to smell the flowers, hug your kids, call your mum, that kind of thing. Not the most original advice I admit, but getting too absorbed in one thing, even the promise of a great game, can be unhealthy. I hope everything is going to improve for you. I lost a family member recently too. It does, eventually, get better.

Maybe the gold or silver an still hope a base value, so you can still trade it between other races, but at a low cost.
