Classes artisanales

Les classes d'artisan permettent aux joueurs de se spécialiser dans un ou plusieurs des arbres de compétences suivants skill trees.

• Collecte
• Traitement
• Artisanat

L'artisanat et la collecte sont un élément très important de l'économie sur lequel les joueurs auront un contrôle direct. Que vous souhaitiez établir une plantation tentaculaire autour de votre maison, ou parcourir le vaste monde sauvage à la recherche de trésors et de ressources.

Collecte

Collecte en Alpha-1.

Collecte en version de démonstration de l'Alpha-1.

La collecte est l'une des classes artisanales dans Ashes of Creation.

• Les ressources récoltables sont découvertes par essais et erreurs et en apprenant leurs apparences.
• La collecte nécessite la fabrication et l'utilisation d'outils.
• Collecter dans la zone d'influence (ZOI) d'un nœud contribuera à son gain d'expérience.
• Certain low level gatherables will have a tiered progression into higher level crafting.

Certain low level gatherables will have a tiered progression into higher level crafting. So for example if I'm gathering... leaves of the blue petal flower to craft a pigment that's going to be used in the development of a tunic that I can wear at level one, then I may need to collect those in order to craft the pigments to craft a greater pigment that might be present in the in the crafting of a higher level item. So it's going to be a tiered progression so that materials have relevancy throughout the different levels of of crafting; and that's important from an economic stability standpoint. You need to have layered demand from a supply standpoint so that players who are interested in collecting and gathering those materials still are relevant when the later level items are crafted. – Steven Sharif

Gathering professions

• Fishing
• Herbalism
• Hunting
• Lumberjacking
• Mining

outils d'artisan

Outil d'artisan en Alpha-1 : pinces .

La classe artisanale de Collecte nécessite la création et l'utilisation d'outils de récolte qui permettent la collecte des ressources.

• La progression dans la classe artisanale de collecte déverrouille des outils de récolte de meilleur niveau, qui permettent de collecter des ressources de plus haut niveau.
  • Un collecteur de compétence maximale déverrouillera des outils de maître qui lui permettront d'accéder aux ressources de la plus haute qualité.
• Les outils auront une durabilité et une durée de vie.
  • Le nombre d'utilisations d'un outil de collecte augmente tandis que le collecteur devient plus compétent dans l'arbre d'artisanat de collecte.
  • Les outils peuvent devenir non-réparables, ce qui implique une nouvelle fabrication.
• Les artisans n'auront pas besoin de s'appuyer sur d'autres arbres afin de fabriquer leurs outils.

Les outils progressent au sein de l'arbre d'artisanat, donc votre aptitude à collecter, traiter ou fabriquer va nécessiter les outils correspondants à cette étape de fabrication afin d'accomplir la tâche en question. Ainsi, vous ne pourrez pas extraire du cuivre et du mithril avec le même outil. – Steven Sharif

Le Traitement requiert des plans pour la construction des bâtiments qui sont nécessaire pour traiter les resources.

• L'Artisanat nécessite l'acquisition de recettes pour fabriquer des objets.

Traitement

Traitement is one of the artisan classes in Ashes of Creation.

• Processing involves the refining of raw materials obtained from gathering and item deconstruction.

• Each processing profession has four processing stations that unlock as players progress.

• The bulk of the time spent in the artisan system resides in the processing branch. The processing time varies based on the quality of the crafting materials.

• Processing up to grandmaster level can be carried out on freeholds.

• Processing up to journeyman level can be carried out in nodes.
  • There will be public spaces in nodes where processing artisans can carry out lower-tier animal husbandry and farming activities.

The intent is that there are also public spaces where animal husbandry and farming can be utilized... Those systems provide opportunities for players who might be more solo-oriented, aren't a part of a family, don't think they'll be able to acquire a freehold, but still want to participate with those particular particular types of professions. But they may not do it at a mastery level as a result; but they'll still have access to lower-tier versions of that so that they can progress through that particular profession up to a degree. – Steven Sharif

Processing professions

• Alchemy
• Animal husbandry
• Cooking
• Farming
• Lumber Milling
• Metalworking
• Stonemasonry
• Tanning
• Weaving

Freehold professions

• Artisan buildings on freeholds enable placement of processing and crafting stations.
• Business buildings on freeholds allow freehold owners to provide services to other players.

Processing stations

Lumbersmiths processing station.

Processing stations are of course a necessary component of taking gatherables into usable crafted goods essentially to fulfill what recipes require in order to make items. – Steven Sharif

Alpha-2 metalworking processing station in action.

We're trying to marry the visuals with what's actually going on with the station. So, if you have a job queued and you're trying to do errands throughout the node, or in your freehold or whatever, [you] should be able to look at the station and know what's going on with it: So you know he's there working and once he's done he's going to stop and you can be like, okay there's stuff ready to pick up and have some visuals associated with that. So, as much as we can have stuff rooted in world instead of throwing a bunch of UI in the player's face, that's something that we're trying to do and is important to us. – Kory Rice

Processing stations are workstations that are used to process raw materials into processed goods (crafting materials) at nodes or on freeholds.

• Artisan buildings are required to be placed on freehold (and node) plots to unlock placement of processing stations.
  • Each processing profession has four processing stations that unlock as players progress through their artisan building tech trees.

Each processing profession will have four stations; and the stations will come online as you progress through the profession. Each one of those stations will make goods that are immediately useful to the economy, to crafters, to other processors; and each processing station will build on itself and into the other stations. – Kory Rice

• Master and grandmaster processing can only take place on freeholds.

• Processing stations require fuel to process the required grade of materials.
  • Players can mix and match different fuels to fulfill the fuel requirements of a recipe.

Processing as it stands for Alpha-2's implementation is that there is a certain amount of prep work that's required first for the industry-specific component, which is the building. That prep work might be finding a certain amount of lumber to light the fire in kiln or whatever, to a certain temperature in order for you to process a certain grade of ore; and that grade of ore being malleable then into an ingot; and that produces that ingot so-to-speak. Now, in that process there's a gathering component, there's a preparatory phase, there is a time-related component. – Steven Sharif

• Processing stations have queue slots that allow jobs to be queued at that station. Processing jobs are processed sequentially for all players in freeholds. Processing jobs in nodes are processed sequentially per player, but concurrently with other player's jobs.
  • Processing animations in freeholds are visible to all players (as there is a single shared processing queue). Processing station animations in nodes relate to the processing activity of each player individually, as each queue is personalized per player.

Q: Can you provide more details in regards to the design philosophy behind why it's a queue system for freeholds but not for nodes?

A: On the freehold, processing can achieve the highest levels of processing. That's where the highest levels of processing occur. Nodes can only go up to a certain level of processing. Now we want to be able to throttle the amount of resources that can be processed at any given time in response to the fluctuation and flows of the economy. So, we want to make sure that the economy is a bigger ship when turning than being able to immediately start processing everything at once and get new resources out as the flow of supply and demand changes within the world. And because- again that's at the highest levels of processing; and you're sharing the available queues that exist at those stations. It's going to take time and it's going to take a long time for the higher level materials. – Steven Sharif

• There will also be time-related and gameplay elements that require the player to interact with processing stations. These elements act to throttle the introduction of processed materials from raw gatherables into the economy.

There's also possibilities that the machine you're using itself has some type of gameplay layer- should the kiln get overheated, and you have to throw some water on it or something. There are elements there in that process that we want to mimic this gameplay opportunity for players to interact; and not just be a time-sink. But time-sink is also a component of it as well, because that's the throttle for the introduction of processed materials from raw gatherables into the economy. – Steven Sharif

• Processing times, yields, queue times, and job sizes can increase based on node progression, service building upgrades, node policies, and relics.

That's going to be very important as you get to very late game processed materials that are required. Because some of these things might have days to process within a station, but if you have spent the time and done the work to advance that processing station you could cut that down considerably, perhaps even greater than 50 percent; and that's going to have a significant impact on your ability to either control markets or to create goods. – Steven Sharif

• Processing stations are distinct from crafting workstations that are used to craft finished goods.

• The developers are considering a decay system for processing stations similar to item decay for gear.

Q: Do processing stations wear out over time? Do they have to be repaired?

A: That's something that we're still discussing internally. It is coded in such a way where it's an easy variable for us to change that. There are material components that are necessary to feed the machines to keep them up and running, or it could be based on how you interact with the fuel components. If you overheat- overcharge with fuel, that can create like a system degrade similar to your armor decay, which then you have to feed materials in order to rebuild maintenance-wise. Right now it is not implemented. With that in mind, the only maintenance required is going to be through taxation. And depending on the number of permits that you have placed on the freehold will increase the amount of taxes that are necessary to be paid for the freehold. – Steven Sharif

Artisanat

Cette traduction est peut-être obsolète

Concept art de Forge en Alpha-1.

L'Artisanat et la collecte sont des éléments importants de l'économie sur lesquels les joueurs auront un contrôle direct. Que vous souhaitiez bâtir une plantation tentaculaire autour de votre maison ou voyager dans les contrées sauvages à la recherche de trésors ou de ressources. Il y a de nombreux outils disponibles pour les artisans de notre monde. Peu importe comment vous collectez vos ressources, nous croyons que chaque objet qui existe dans le monde doit, d'une certaine manière, refléter son créateur. Ainsi, il y aura une versatilité extrême dans le système d'artisanat - donnant aux artisans la possibilité de créer des objets uniques qui représentent leurs forces et leurs faiblesses.

L'Artisanat est une des classes artisanales dans Ashes of Creation. C'est l'élément moteur de l'économie du jeu.

• L'Artisanat nécessite l'acquisition de recettes pour fabriquer des objets.
• Les postes de fabrication sont situés sur les propriétés privées ou au sein des nœuds.
  • Les postes de fabrication de niveau supérieur sont déverrouillés avec la progression du noeud.

Tout ce que vous souhaitez créer dans le monde sera construit par les joueurs : que ce soit les navires, engins de siège, armes, armures, etc. – Jeffrey Bard

Il n'y aura pas de système de main d'oeuvre ou d'énergie dans Ashes of Creation.

Il n'y a pas de système de main d'oeuvre ou d'énergie dans Ashes. Cependant, ça ne veut pas dire que l'artisanat ne sera pas difficile. L'artisanat est très difficile ; mais c'est parce que c'est difficile que ça sera également très gratifiant. – Steven Sharif

Crafting professions

• Arcane Engineering
• Armor smithing
• Menuiserie
• Jewel cutting
• Leatherworking
• Scribing
• Tailoring
• Weapon smithing

Recipes

L'Artisanat dans Ashes of Creation repose sur des recettes, pas sur le hasard.

• Dans une recette d'artisanat, il y a des cadrans (basés sur les spécialisations d'artisanat) qui sont utilisés pour personnaliser les objets fabriqués, par exemple :
  • Augmenter un attribut au détriment d'un autre.
  • Rendre un objet plus magique ou bien plus physique.

Je pense que Star Wars Galaxies avait un excellent système d'artisanat... La collecte des ressources et le système d'artisanat étaient, je crois, dans leur ensemble, très en avance sur leur temps. C'est dans ce type de direction que nous voulons aller, où il y a des choix à faire dans le système d'artisanat et ces choix changent le résultat que vous obtenez... Ce n'est pas simplement réaliser la recette X pour obtenir l'objet Y. Vous voyez, il y a vraiment de la réflexion présente et il y a un marché à capter sur la base de ces décisions. – Jeffrey Bard

Artisan mastery

Cette traduction est peut-être obsolète

Les joueurs doivent choisir un chemin dans l'arbre de compétences d'artisan pour chaque personnage. Pour chaque chemin d'artisan (Collecte, Traitement et Artisanat) il y a plusieurs professions. Un personnage ne pourra suivre qu'un seul chemin entièrement.

• Les joueurs peuvent s'essayer à chaque profession en tant que "débutants" avant de décider quel chemin ils suivront.
• Choisir un chemin particulier dans l'arbre de compétences donne l'opportunité aux joueurs de se spécialiser dans un certain domaine. Cela crée de l'inter-dépendance entre les joueurs, améliorant l'expérience en tant qu'artisan.
• Il est possible de maîtriser chaque profession du chemin d'artisan choisi, mais cela sera une épreuve longue et laborieuse, coûteuse en ressources.
  • Les joueurs ne pourront maîtriser une profession que lorsqu'ils auront achevé la maîtrise de leur chemin d'artisan.
  • Après des tests, il pourrait être décidé d'utiliser une valeur fixe pour certifier la maîtrise d'une profession.
• La maîtrise n'est pas qu'une question de création d'item. Elle donne accès à beaucoup de choses, même des titres, accès à des items, des négociations, et des quêtes.
• Choisir une profession n'affecte pas les stats des joueurs.
• Les personnages d'un même compte (Alts) pourront avoir différentes professions.

Les joueurs auront l'opportunité de tâter chaque profession à un niveau très bas celà leur donne un avant-goût de chaque profession et leur permet de savoir vers laquelle ils préfèrent s'orienter et quelle profession ils veulent maîtriser. – Steven Sharif

Quand on dit que vous ne pourrez pas tout maîtriser nous ne disons pas que vous ne serez pas maître au sein de votre propre arbre d'artisan, qui sont l'artisanat, la collecte et le traitement. Vous serez un maître d'un des trois, mais vous ne serez pas un maître des deux autres. – Steven Sharif

Artisan gear

Work-in-progress Alpha-2 character user interface showing three gear slots for artisan gear at the bottom right of the paper-doll.

There's gear for all of the different crafting, gathering, and processing professions that'll help you do those different trades. – Kory Rice

Artisan gear boosts artisans in their gathering, processing, or crafting professions.

• Profession NPCs sell lower level artisan gear. Higher level gear is crafted by players.

• There are three artisan gear slots on a character's paper doll UI. Previously these was referred to as undergarment slots.

• Artisan gear and adventuring gear do not need to be swapped for either to be effective when they are equipped on a character, but players will be able to toggle gear visibility between their adventuring and artisan gear.

If you want to be seen as wearing the herbalists outfit, you're still going to have your adventuring gear present and on the character, and benefiting from the stats that are conferred by them; and vice-versa. – Steven Sharif

• The developers are planning to have artisan gear sets available for Alpha-2.

• Gathering tools and artisan gear have stats that affect gathering rates and yields.

Gear for artisans are going to live alongside your adventuring gear. So you will currently- the approaches, and we'll test this but currently- the approach is you'll have artisanship oriented gear. This might be beneficial for your gathering; it might be beneficial for your processing, or crafting, or whatever it is- your profession. Essentially you will craft that gear, you will equip that gear, it'll live almost as a undergarment slot so to speak; and then you can activate that and it will show the appearance if you wish during the activation when you gain the benefit from the from the gear itself; and then could disappear afterwards and go back to your adventuring gear. That's the current approach. We're going to play with that a little bit. There's some discussion and disagreement on the team about how we do that, but our hopes are for Alpha two, we will have I think a couple of sets at least. We're demonstrating all of the artisanship from gathering to processing to crafting in limited fashion in Alpha 2 want to have that gear present to play with this approach. – Steven Sharif

Artisan supply chain

Cette traduction est peut-être obsolète

Les artisans dans Ashes of Creation doivent choisir une voie dans leur arbre de compétences d'artisanat. Cette interdépendance crée une chaîne d'approvisionnement allant des matières premières jusqu'au produit fini. Chaque étape de la chaîne peut nécessiter des caravanes pour transporter les marchandises d'un artisan à l'autre.

1. Obtenir les matières premières :
   • En utilisant le métier de Collecte.
   • En tuant des monstres et des boss.
   • Par la déconstruction d'armes ou d'armures.
   • En les achetant à d'autres joueurs.
2. Raffiner les matières premières grâce au métier de Traitement.
3. Fabriquer le produit fini en utilisant sa recette de fabrication.
   • Les recettes peuvent aussi être obtenues dans le butin des boss.

En tant qu'artisan, vous allez vouloir savoir où certaines recettes peuvent être complétées ; quels nœuds ont la capacité de créer ce pour quoi vous avez transformé les ressources que vous avez récoltées ; et ensuite, vous allez vouloir planifier votre itinéraire afin d'y acheminer les marchandises ou faire en sorte de vous trouver dans une zone où vous pouvez à la fois collecter et fabriquer. Donc il y aura beaucoup de planification qui sera nécessaire. – Steven Sharif

Legendary items

There is a small RNG chance of looting rare and legendary items or crafting materials from mobs based on the level, status and type of mob. This also applies to harvesting resources with a gathering profession.

• There is a much higher chance that materials and unique recipes are dropped that can be used to craft items of equitable value.
• Légendaire equipment is only dropped by Legendary world bosses.
  • Legendary equipment will have a roughly 6-12% improvement in base stats, subject to testing and balancing.

At each stage from Gatherer to Processor to Crafter you are required to have certain prerequisites before those elite types of materials can be essentially gathered, processed, or crafted. – Steven Sharif

• Gatherers must have high quality tools to gather rare resources.
• Processors must have high tier processing buildings on their freehold to produce rare materials.
• Crafters must also satisfy certain prerequisites to craft legendary equipment.

The amount of effort needed and interdependencies across the different types of players – between raiders and PvPers and crafters and even role players and the taverns and businesses: the processors and gatherers – all of those systems will likely have a component that lends toward creating or crafting that legendary item... We want to stay away from the highly RNGd system, and instead take our multiple progression paths that we are offering the players and put the construction components for achieving these legendary items within them so it encourages communities to work together because it's going to be difficult for just one person by themselves to gather everything. Not to say that they couldn't in an economic sense, by buying those components, that's possible. But achieving them from a time investment standpoint we want it to be considerably less RNG focussed. – Steven Sharif

Certain legendary items may be limited to one per server at any given time.

• If the player character leaves the server then the item will become available for acquisition through whatever means it was acquired previously.

There are absolutely legendary items and they're not items that are attained easily nor are they granted out in a volume. There might even be items that are single items that will exist on the server at any given time.

A legendary weapon is easily distinguished by its visual appearance.

It will be a very ornate and detailed weapon, more so than any other weapon or piece of equipment in the game. It will also include some awesome looking effects that won't too gaudy, they won't be too bright and shiny so that it doesn't look good, but they will be subtle and people will notice it and know wow that guy has this weapon. – Steven Sharif

Legendary items are not intended to be temporary.

• A notable exception to this is Royal mounts.

The fact there is only one of them... or very very few of them depending on what it is. I think that in and of itself is a balance component right and you need to make sure that the players who are striving for those legendary things and who are devoting the time energy, resources in order to achieve them are accurately rewarded... We do not intend on having legendary items that are temporary. – Steven Sharif

Certaines des informations suivantes n'ont pas été récemment confirmées par les développeurs et peuvent ne pas figurer sur la feuille de route de développement actuelle.

Discovery of legendary items will unlock further chapters of the Histoire et traditions.

Timeline

Classes artisanales (Collecte, Traitement, Artisanat) is expected to come online fully in Alpha-2 and the Betas.

• Approximately 10 percent of the artisan system was online in Alpha-1.

Crafting honestly will not come online in any sense of its true form until Alpha-2. Alpha-1 has essentially what are intended to be the core gameplay loop of crafting, meaning the collection of materials, the translation of those materials into processed goods, and the use of those processed goods into item acquisition. That's the core gameplay loop that is currently present in Alpha-1. But those are mostly facilitated piggy backing the merchant systems right now and not actually using the real crafting system; and that's because crafting hasn't been completed in a form that can be implemented in Alpha-1, but will be for Alpha-2. What's present in Alpha-1 doesn't even really scratch the surface for crafting. – Steven Sharif
