Cosmetics

ليمجتلا تارضحتسم provide a wide array of customization in Ashes of Creation.

Obtaining cosmetics

Some cosmetics can be obtained in-game:

• Dyes.
• Costumes.
• Seasonal cosmetics.

تازاجنالا may unlock some cosmetics.

Not all cosmetics are obtainable through in-game means. These will be purchasable through the cosmetic store.

Cash shop cosmetics will be limited in quantity, limited in time for purchase. They will be unique, but you will also have extremely difficult to gain cosmetics in game as well as unique cosmetics that look great and better... There will be a lot of cosmetics that are achievable in the game because that is a very fun aspect of MMO play. – Steven Sharif

نزخم ليمجتلا تارضحتسم

Ashes of Creation cosmetic store.

There is going to be legendary cosmetics that can be earned and achieved in the game through the game systems, but that's going to take a significant amount of effort and work; and those cosmetics are going to be on-par with the cosmetics offered in the marketplace... What that does is it provides additional revenue to the company so that we can continue to fund the development of content as well and bridge the divide that not having a box cost would have and not having any pay-to-win mechanics whatsoever. – Steven Sharif

The نزخم ليمجتلا تارضحتسم enables players to purchase ليمجتلا تارضحتسم for use in Ashes of Creation. The cosmetic store offers limited time, limited quantity items to help sustain game development.

• Equitable cosmetics, both from a quantity and quality standpoint, are achievable through in-game means.
• Nothing in the cosmetic store will be pay to win.

Nothing in our shop will ever be pay to win as we believe this practice greatly hurts the MMORPG genre.

• Cash shop cosmetics will offer a diverse selection of unique looks.

I want to incentivize purchase in the cosmetic shop for sustainability of what expansions we have intended, since we are not a box cost. I want to incentivize purchase by offering limited items: limited time, limited quantity, so you have confidence that when you purchase them, they won't be offered later on in some other way. – Steven Sharif

• All cosmetic store items will be non-tradeable. There will be no gifting mechanism for cosmetic items.

I don't want cosmetic items that can be purchased from the market to be transferable... because it is in a way a transfer of money for potentially something in-game. – Steven Sharif

Caravan cosmetics

Ramstone Hauler pre-order pack cosmetic caravan skin.

Caravan skins ("Pimp my caravan") were available in the cash shop (cosmetic store).

• The skin changes the appearance of an in-game mount and in-game caravan that are hooked up to each other.
• The caravan and mount components of the skin are not able to be utilized separately.
• Building, ship, caravan and mount cosmetics require an in-game item to be obtained first to apply the cosmetic.

You'll need your own creature and caravan hooked up to each other, and then the caravan cosmetic skin goes over all of them to make it look like what's pictured. you're not able to split out separately that caravan mount skin, hence why you'd want the separate mount skin if you wanted to ride it independently. – Sarah Flanagan

Armor appearance

Alpha-1 female plate armor 3D render.

We want to be realistic with the application of particular types of armor, such as plate armor. In this regard for the different sexes there's a fine line that has to be drawn between accentuating the form of the sex as well as making it somewhat realistic and actually applicable to the environment. – Steven Sharif

• Gear is intended to be realistic in appearance.

• There will not be "oversized" weapons.

• Armor will not be overly sexual in appearance.

  I'm more of the mind that it wouldn't really serve a purpose to have bikini plate armor, just in like reality, if you're going to have armor, it should be protective. I think from a fashion statement is enjoyable for some people, but it's a an immersive issue. – Steven Sharif

  • Some armor and costumes will be more revealing than others, but there will not be nudity in the game.

  There might be sliders, but there are not gonna be naked sliders. – Steven Sharif

• عرد will take on a racial appearance. هحلسالا will scale in size based on race.

Each race is getting its custom geo pieces, which then will share thematic components such as color palette, attachments, design filigree. Those types of things will get shared across the geo but generally you're going to see unique races with unique geo. – Steven Sharif

• The appearance of crafted gear is influenced by its rarity.
  • Particle effects are used to denote the importance and rarity of some weapons.

• Crafters are able to influence what their crafted items look like.

• ليمجتلا تارضحتسم can be used by all races but there may be slight variations to make them work with the body builds of each race.

• Dye cosmetics can be used to change gear colors.

• Helmet display can be toggled on and off.

• Hair will likely be masked if helmet display is toggled on.

• هحلسالا are able to be sheathed.

Emoji

Emoji adds additional flare either for chat or character representation (social animations).

• Race and class emoji packs were available in the retratskciK and يفيصلا يعامجلا ليومتلا campaigns at the Explorer level and above.

• There will be role-playing emoji such as dice rolling.

Freehold skins

Sunbeam's Remembrance medium homestead cosmetic freehold building skin.

After you build your house, you can build other buildings on your Freehold. Each building needs the blueprint to start the process. If you have a cosmetic skin you want to use on a building, this is used after placing the blueprint. Once this has been placed, the building will be shown in a non-functional, construction state. Players will need to provide the required materials needed to complete the building construction, for each building on their Freehold.

Freehold building skins were offered as retratskciK and يفيصلا يعامجلا ليومتلا rewards and were available in pre-order packs.

• Freehold building skins can also be achieved in-game.

• Freehold building cosmetics cannot be sold or traded with other players.

• Freehold skins can be applied to blueprints matching the type of freehold building: housing, artisanship, and business.
  • These blueprints must be obtained in-game first before any cosmetics can be applied.
  • Freehold skins sold prior to the release of applicable in-game building-types will be able to be exchanged for embers via the account backend.

Cosmetics that we have sold as part of different packs throughout the past- our pre-order system: Those cosmetics are split into three primary categories: housing, artisanship, and business; and we will have a breakdown that we're going to be releasing of the cosmetics that have come previously and which categories they exist in, but players will have the option to override the appearance of a blueprint that exists within one of those categories with an associated cosmetic skin; and that is obviously not just something that can be purchased through the pre-order system, but also can be achieved in-game as well- our cosmetics that can be applied to specific building types. And we don't get as granular where, let's say, you might have a shrine cosmetic, and you have, let's say, a blacksmith building that you wouldn't be able to apply the shrine to the blacksmith building. If the shrine exists in the artisanship lane you can apply it to any artisanship type building, but not to a house or business. so giving a little bit of additional context there. – Steven Sharif

• The vast majority of cosmetic freehold skins apply to homestead buildings.

• Family members are able to apply their cosmetics to freehold buildings, if permitted.

• A planned feature may allow multiple buildings to be replaced by a single large cosmetic skin.

Cosmetics that are are very large in size- we will have a system that's not been developed yet, but we've been planning for this: we'll have a system where multiple buildings can be occupied space-wise by the larger cosmetic. So, a cosmetic might replace the visual appearance of one particular building, but then you'll be able to have that footprint occupy multiple buildings to replace the visual appearance. So that way you're still utilizing the similar amount of space. – Steven Sharif

• Baronies won't impose any appearance restrictions on freehold buildings.
