Leveling

Jump to search
Leveling won't follow a traditional linear path, although classic mechanics for leveling exist.[1]
- Repetition will not be part of progression in Ashes of Creation.[2]
Class progression
Class progression in Ashes of Creation proceeds as follows:[3]
- Players receive skill points as they level. These can be used to level up skills within their skill tree.[8]
- It will not be possible to max all skills in a skill tree.[8]
- A player may choose a secondary archetype when they reach level 25.[3][4] The combination of primary and secondary archetypes is referred to as a class.[4][7][9]
- The secondary archetype does not provide additional skills.[10]
- Secondary archetypes may be changed, but not "on-the-fly".[6][11]
- The player can then augment their primary skills with effects from their secondary archetype.[4][5]
- Class progression does not relate to a player's artisan progression.[12]
- World events do not directly impact class effectiveness but there may be ancillary effects in terms of availability of equipment, enchantments or tattoos.[13]
Classes by archetype combination
With 8 Archetypes to combine, players may choose from 64 total combinations to create their class.[4][7][9]
Class abilities
Primary skills (class abilities) are based on a player's archetype.[17][5]
- A player may choose a secondary archetype when they reach level 25.[3][4] The player can then augment their primary skills with effects from their secondary archetype.[17][3][4][5][18]
- Outside of class-specific skills there may be a subset of universal skills, such as active block and dodge.[19]
- Class skills are not affected by the type of weapon that is equipped.[20]
- Primary skills in Alpha-2 are expected to be very different to those in Alpha-1.[21]
