Ashes of Creation cosmetic store.[1]

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.[2]Steven Sharif

The نزخم ليمجتلا تارضحتسم enables players to purchase ليمجتلا تارضحتسم for use in Ashes of Creation.[3] The cosmetic store offers limited time, limited quantity items to help sustain game development.[4]

  • Equitable cosmetics, both from a quantity and quality standpoint, are achievable through in-game means.[4]
  • Nothing in the cosmetic store will be pay to win.[5]

Nothing in our shop will ever be pay to win as we believe this practice greatly hurts the MMORPG genre.[5]

  • Cash shop cosmetics will offer a diverse selection of unique looks.[6]

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.[4]Steven Sharif

  • All cosmetic store items will be non-tradeable.[7] There will be no gifting mechanism for cosmetic items.[8]

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.[8]Steven Sharif

Artistic style

Ren'Kai architecture concept art.[9]

Part of the biome that the Ren'Kai are accustomed to is a more swamp or marsh oriented, so they have these almost stilt-like foundations on some of the assets because they're intended to sit above that marsh.[9]Steven Sharif

Ashes of Creation will have a higher graphical fidelity than most western games. It will not be too stylized or "cartoony".[10]

We can push the limits a little bit on the graphical fidelity, especially using Unreal Engine 4... My desire was not to see very cartoony games. I'm not a big fan of highly stylized art.[10]Steven Sharif
It's not to say that people can't do steampunk well. I've enjoyed some steampunk stuff. I'm a very high fantasy oriented type of storyteller; and the inspiration for Ashes obviously comes from my pathfinder campaigns that I ran long ago; and those are always set in a high fantasy world. So it just compromises what I believe is the perspective of the storytelling in the environment.[11]Steven Sharif
We do not use AI for production, except in unique internal cases when communicating fast reference material.[12]Steven Sharif

Racial skins

Racial skins enable a player to change their character's racial appearance.[13][14]

  • Racial skins transform the race of the character to that skin. The original racial appearance of the character is entirely replaced.[15]
  • Racial skins can be toggled on and off.[14]

You're changing your race over to that, which means that you won't look uniquely different if you were a Vek angel or a Human angel.[15]Steven Sharif

Racial skins are not costumes. This means that armor and character customization is possible on these.[16]

  • Skin color customization.[17]
  • Racial skins appear along with any costume appearances.[18]

There are plans to create other racial skins.[19]

  • Some potential future ideas include undead and werewolf (lycan) skins.[20]

Freehold building skins

Sunbeam's Remembrance medium homestead cosmetic freehold building skin.[21]

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.[22]

Freehold building skins were offered as retratskciK and يفيصلا يعامجلا ليومتلا rewards and were available in pre-order packs.[23][24][25][26][27]

  • Freehold building skins can also be achieved in-game.[28]
  • Freehold building cosmetics cannot be sold or traded with other players.[29][23]
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.[28]Steven Sharif
  • A planned feature may allow multiple buildings to be replaced by a single large cosmetic skin.[37]
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.[28]Steven Sharif

Caravan skins

Caravan skins ("Pimp my caravan") were available in the cash shop (cosmetic store).[40]

  • The skin changes the appearance of an in-game mount and in-game caravan that are hooked up to each other.[41][42]
  • The caravan and mount components of the skin are not able to be utilized separately.[41][42]
  • Building, ship, caravan and mount cosmetics require an in-game item to be obtained first to apply the cosmetic.[33][31]

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.[41]Sarah Flanagan

Ship skins

Ship skins apply to certain ship types.[43]

Mount skins

دعاصتي are obtained through an early quest that is available to players in starting areas.[45]

  • Mounts will be purchasable from players utilizing Animal husbandry and taming.[56]
  • Fall damage that occurs while mounted will be first applied to the mount; and if the mount dies as a result, then the remaining damage may overflow onto the player, but this will be determined based on testing.[58]
  • There may be emotes associated with mounts and pets, such as petting, hugging, or playing with them.[59]
  • The majority of mounts are based on animals, but there may be some mounts based on inanimate objects in the future.[11]

Land mounts

Gliding mounts

Flying mounts

Undermounts

Aquatic mounts

Crowdfunding mounts

Cosmetic pets

Cosmetic pets were available for purchase from the cosmetic store.[60]

  • Cosmetic pets can be summoned from level 1.[33]

Cosmetic pets, since non-functional from a gameplay perspective, can be summoned at lvl 1.[33]Steven Sharif

Guild hall skins

Summer guildhall appearance cosmetic concept art.[61]

Guildhalls are the ultimate expression of a guild's power! In Ashes these structures will serve as focal points for a guild, offering any guilds who construct them a whole host of benefits as well as customization options.[62]

ةباقنلا تاعاق serve as a focal point for a guild, offering a host of benefits and customization options.[62]

  • When a guild reaches a certain level, its guild master is granted a certificate to enable placement of a guild hall.[63]
  • Guild halls may be placed within Baronies within the ZOI of a node.[22]
    • A barony can only have a single guild hall.[22]
    • The number of baronies that can have an active guild hall is determined by the node's stage.[64][65]
Only a limited subset of the guild halls available around the node are available concurrently... So you might only have two that might be available at fifth level and then three at sixth level of a node; and the guilds have an opportunity to select from the six available which three are going to be active.[64]Steven Sharif
  • Patron guilds may also place their guild hall within (the footprint of) their patron node. These guild halls have different perks and benefits to halls placed within Baronies.[66][63][67][66]
    • Patron guild halls placed within Baronies may have the ability to confer benefits to surrounding estates within that node by speccing into passives in their guild skill tree and carrying out a lengthy quest line.[68]
  • The design of guild-halls is currently subject to active iteration by the developers.[69]

Costumes

Vestments of the Runecarvers pre-order pack cosmetic costume.[73]

The costume cosmetics that are included in each month's pre-order set are indeed a full piece, and when you put it on it will cover your entire appearance. You will not be able to mix and match/toggle those pieces individually (other than your helmet) when you're wearing the entire costume. This is partially why there is a separate category for accessories - those are able to be worn/equipped on a more individualized basis, so you can mix and match to your liking![74]Sarah Flanagan

Costumes were available for purchase from the cosmetic store.[25]

Full costumes do not mix and match pieces.[79]Steven Sharif

Accessory skins

Accessories in Ashes of Creation refers to:

Mount barding skins

Mount barding cosmetic reward for backing at the Leader of Men level.[88]

Mount barding (also referred to as Saddles) is armor for mounts in Ashes of Creation. Mount barding is similar in concept to player armor.[89]

  • The higher the level of barding, the better looking it will be.[89]
  • Barding will have multiple components that can be equipped. Each component will increase the stats of the mount, such as hit points and speed.[90][89]
  • Barding cosmetics can only be applied to mounts with barding cosmetic slots.[91]
  • Cosmetic skins may only be applied to barding/saddle items that are earned in-game.[92]
    • Barding skins can not be applied over a mount skin.[86]
    The mount skins are applied to the mount, and barding (think of it like an accessory appearance) can not be applied over the mount skin.[86]Cody Peterson
    • Barding skins' appearance may differ depending on the type of mount.[91]

Housing decorations

Housing decorations were available for purchase from the cosmetic store.

Gear appearance

Alpha-1 female plate armor 3D render.[93]

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.[93]Steven Sharif

  • Armor will not be overly sexual in appearance.[93][95]
    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.[94]Steven Sharif
    • Some armor and costumes will be more revealing than others, but there will not be nudity in the game.[97]
    There might be sliders, but there are not gonna be naked sliders.[97]Steven Sharif
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.[101]Steven Sharif
  • Hair will likely be masked if helmet display is toggled on.[109]

Ashes of Creation Apocalypse cosmetics

Ashes of Creation Apocalypse cosmetic rewards

All of the skins attained in Ashes of Creation Apocalypse will be usable in the Ashes of Creation MMORPG.[112]

Progression and experience tracking for participation in Ashes of Creation Apocalypse testing entitled players to earn unique cosmetic rewards. These earned rewards will carry over in player's accounts to live launch of the MMORPG.[113][114]

One of the ways we want to give back to the Community in participating in this testing is allowing for progress, quests, achievements rewards to be gained in Apocalypse... You will have rewards and quests and achievements that you and your participation and your performance in that game, whether it be the Castle Siege, the Horde Mode or the Battle Royale will earn you cosmetics. There will be costumes. There will be mounts to earn. There will be housing and furniture. There will be emotes. There will be weapon variants. A lot of these are what we have in production for our project Ashes of Creation, we apply some variants and skins for and make them only available through participating in helping us test these different game modes. And they will carry over to your account on the MMORPG.[113]Steven Sharif

The account used for Apocalypse is the same account used for the MMORPG. Unique skins earned in Apocalypse will be added to the MMORPG as rewards for helping to prepare for the Alpha and Beta stages of Ashes of Creation.[118]

So it's not that you'll be able to equip necessarily an item at level one. These are all cosmetic skins. Again we are not about the pay-to-win or pay-to-convenience life. What we want to do instead is as you earn, craft, or find equipment in the MMORPG, these skins that you've earned in Apocalypse will be available at certain tiers, levels and/or access points. So for example, we have different grades of mounts right. We have the base one land mounts. We have the Royal mounts. We have the flying mounts if you're a mayor or King or Queen. We have legendary mounts. These classes of mounts will have available skins associated with those particular classes... If you have the Ramstider skin that you've earned from Apocalypse, you'll be able to apply that to your first land mount, which will probably be earned within the first five levels you'll earn a land mount. However if you have let's say for example the Gryphon, which will be a glideable mount. I'm sorry what's the name of the what's the name of the night one. The midnight- is the midnight bird or something like? The Nighthunter Gryphon. I think that's it. If you have that skin you'll only be able to apply that skin to a Royal mount so you'll still have to earn these things. Remember our position is that of: You need to earn these things in Ashes first. They're not purchasable or earned outside in Apocalypse and you're granted that immediately. These are skins that you apply to the things you earn in Ashes.[119]Steven Sharif

These cosmetics reflect the lore of Ashes of Creation Apocalypse, which is set before the fall.[114]

One thing that we announced to our alpha one backers that I know they love clarity on is that we'll also be including progression and experience tracking for participation and testing that will entitle them to some unique cosmetics as well that reflect on the lore of this setting, which is before the fall. So you'll be able to acquire some armors that reflect some of the ancient cultures of Verra that you will earn and hold for live launch.[114]Steven Sharif

It would be like your ancestors kept these curios for you.[114]Jeffrey Bard

Examples of some retratskciK rewards will be included in Ashes of Creation Apocalypse.[120]
