Siege participation
Non-registered combatants are not permitted on the siege field in castle or node sieges.[1]
- Alpha-1 castle sieges are located in a separate zone that is accessible via a NPC teleporter.[2][3][4][5]
- Siège de Château (in the final game) may or may not be instanced.[4][6]
- Players could potentially intercept stragglers with the guild war or flagging system en route to the siege field.[8]
Lower level characters will have usefulness in mass combat that does not depend on their level, such as manning siege weapons, helping repair fortifications, bringing proximity-based buffs to key positions, using stealth or scaling walls. These types of things are relevant to the tide of battle and do not require the player to be max-level or have high combat stats.[9]
Sieges
Sieges in Ashes of Creation refer to:
- Siège de Château, where guilds battle to occupy one of five Châteaux de guilde.[11]
- Sièges de Nœuds, which are open world battles fought to destroy nodes.[12]
The risk versus reward relationship, when, say for instance, you've dedicated time towards building a node and other players have dedicated that equivalent time towards sieging the node, there's going to be a pitched battle between those players... They spend that time doing this because they care passionately about having access to that content.[13] – Steven Sharif
Server prime-time
Objective-based PvP events such as node sieges, castle sieges, guild wars, and node wars will occur within a prime-time window somewhere between 3PM and 9PM server time. This is subject to testing.[14][15][16]
- Guild wars and node wars can be declared at any time, but the objectives will only spawn during the prime-time window.[17]
Siege alliances
Quand un siège débute, des alliances temporaires sont formées parmi les attaquants et les défenseurs.[18]
- Pour les sièges de nœud, les citoyens du nœud ou des nœuds provinciaux attaqués sont automatiquement inscrits en tant que défenseurs.[19]
- Il y a de nombreuses raisons de participer en tant qu'allié à l'attaque ou la défense d'autres noeuds.[20]
- Titres.
- Objets.
- Matériaux.
- Argent.
- Liens sociaux.
Plusieurs motivations existent qui peuvent être utiles à votre nœud et à vous-même personnellement en participant à l'attaque ou la défense de villes. Celles-ci vont des titres aux objets, matériaux et argent. De plus, aider les autres peut vous aider à renforcer les liens lorsque vos biens sont menacés.[20] – Steven Sharif
Spectating battles
The ability to spectate battles, such as Sieges is being looked into.[21]
One of the issues I did have about that system in Lineage 2, was like certain people just have alt accounts logged in and tuned into that thing; and like they would then utilize that information. Which, I guess is a means of information gathering. But it's maybe too easy of one. So we're - like i said - we're just looking into that. I haven't decided on that yet.[21] – Steven Sharif
