Gilden
Gilden in Ashes of Creation are still pre-alpha design that will need testing and feedback from the community.[1]
Gildengründung
Players may be able to form guilds in starting areas if minimum requirements are met.[2]
Gildenmitgliedschaft
A character may only be a member of a single guild.[3]
- Alts on the same account can join different guilds.
- Intrigue, espionage and intelligence gathering is a legitimate aspect of the game.
- A guild may only have a single guild leader.[4]
- Transfer of guild leadership is possible, but mechanics on transferring leadership if a guild leader has abandoned the guild have not been finalized.[5]
Gildenentwicklung
Gildenentwicklung findet durch Teilnahme an verschiedenen Systemen statt.[6]
- Aufträge.[6][7]
- Nodes.[6]
- Soziale Organisationen.[6]
- Herstellen von gewissen Gegenständen.[7]
- Events.[7]
Passive Fähigkeiten und Erweiterungen werden durch Gildenentwicklung freigeschaltet.[6][8]
- Passive Fähigkeiten erhöhen gewisse Statuspunkte die sich auf den Kampf eines Gildenmitglieds auswirken, oder auf anderen Aspekten der Gilde, wie zum Beispiel der Wirtschaft.[6]
- Erweiterungen sind erst bei grösserem Gildenfortschritt verfügbar.[6]
- Gildenmitglieder müssen nicht Bürger desselben Knotenpunktes sein, um von passiven Fähigkeiten und Ergänzungen zu profitieren.[9]
Gildengrösse kann gegen Gildenentwicklung eingetauscht werden.[6][10]
- Je grösser die Anzahl an Gildenmitgliedern, desto weniger Auswahlmöglichkeiten für Fähigkeiten stehen der Gilde zur Verfügung.[11]
- Gildenallianzen können eine grosse Rolle darin spielen, grössere "Gilden" zu gründen.[10]
Wenn die Gilde aufsteigst, erhältst du diese Punkte, die entweder für die Erweiterung der Gildenmitgliederzahl oder für die Hinzufügung bestimmter passiver Fähigkeiten verwendet werden können, die die Gildenmitglieder durch ihre Mitgliedschaft in der Gilde erlangen können. Du wirst auch sehen, wie die Gilde durch verschiedene Arten von Quest-, Beteiligungs-, Node- und Organisationssystemen aufsteigen und wie diese Quests in die Welt eingebunden werden. Du wirst möglicherweise auch sehen, dass einige Erweiterungsfähigkeiten auf den oberen Rängen der Gildenebene für bestimmte Mitglieder mit der Klassifizierung „Offizier“ oder „Ritter“ freigeschaltet werden und Zugriff auf diese verschiedenen Arten von Erweiterungsfähigkeiten haben, die möglicherweise freigeschaltet werden, wenn du dorthin gehst entlang der nicht expansiven Mitgliedsspur; Die Idee dabei ist, diese Vorteile auch kleineren Gruppen anzubieten.[6] – Steven Sharif
Es wird nicht immer ein Kampf sein. Ihr könntet eine Gilde mit wirtschaftlichem Fokus gründen. Ihr könnt eine handelsorientierte Gilde haben; Und es gibt alle möglichen Dinge, die ihr zusammenstellen könnt, um eurer Gilde eine eigene Identität zu verleihen.[6] – Jeffrey Bard
Gildengrösse
There are mechanics that are geared towards larger and smaller guilds.[1]
- Larger guilds can siege fortresses.
- Larger guilds won’t have access to power boosting guild ability slots.
- Small groups can do some things better than larger groups.
- Sieges will have things that smaller groups have an advantage in.
Guild size is currently 250-300 members.[12]
Gildenallianzen
Gildenanführer können ab einer bestimmten Stufe Allianzen gründen, in dem sie ein Abenteuer abschliessen.[13]
- Sobald eine Allianz erstellt ist, kann der Gildenanführer bis zu drei weitere Gilden der Allianz hinzufügen.[13]
- Es gibt keine Mitgliederbeschränkung innerhalb von Allianzen, lediglich maximal vier Gilden dürfen in einer Allianz sein.[13]
- Gildenanführer können Ressourcen in eine Gildenallianz Bank umverteilen.[14]
- Es gibt allianzspezifische Abenteuerreihen.[14][15]
- Mitglieder einer Allianz haben einen geteilten Chat Kanal.[14][15]
- Allianzen haben Verbindungen und Ausrüstungsgegenstände die erworben werden können.[14]
- Gilden können auch Handelsabkommen gründen.[15]
You can only invite a number of guilds to the alliance before you must form a new alliance; and then those alliance can have a de facto friendship but they won't have any game component of connection. What the alliance system would allow is pooling of resources into by guild leaders into an alliance guild alliance bank. Will allow certain participation in different quest lines. It will allow common area chat for members and it will allow affiliations and gear that can be attained as well.[14] – Steven Sharif
We have a specific system that relates to being able to invite another guild into an alliance that sets a flag on those characters with regards to being able to combat them, being able to share a chat system with them, being able to participate in specific types of quests and/or alliance warehouses and guild homes; with regards to the relationship of castle sieges and participating in node warfare and node activities. If you're not in an alliance with someone, you're in a neutral state so to speak. You can have trade agreements between different guilds and then you can also have Guild Wars which shows a state of war between you guys. I think that's the baseline of how we're going to develop interaction between guilds.[15] – Steven Sharif
Da Schnellreisen sehr limitiert ist, müssen Gilden gut vorausplanen, damit sich die richtigen Mitglieder zur richtigen Zeit am richtigen Ort befinden. Allianzen mit anderen Gilden werden dies vereinfachen.[10]
There's going to be some mechanics at play that could have even Alliance Wars so to speak: A war between guilds and a war between alliances maybe. When we delve into the blog about Guild Wars we're going to talk about alliances.[16] – Steven Sharif
Ashes of Creation bietet diverse Inhalte, die sich um Allianzen drehen.[17]
- Entwicklungspfade innerhalb Allianzen.[17]
- Gilden die gemeinsame Dienstleistungen mit Allianzmitgliedern teilen.[17]
- Allianzen können Verbindungen zu Knotenpunkten erstellen.[17]
Inhalte, die sich speziell um Allianzen und den Fortschritt innerhalb der Entwicklung dieser Allianz drehen; und die Möglichkeit, einige gemeinsame Dienste zwischen Gilden zu teilen, die Teil dieser Allianz sind. Ich denke, dass es von Vorteil ist, Allianzen zusätzlich zu erlauben, bestimmte Beziehungen mit Nodes als Interaktion umzuschalten. Das wird eine interessante Dynamik für Spieler schaffen, die entweder Mitglieder des jeweiligen Node sind, zu dem die Beziehung besteht, oder Mitglieder der Allianz. Daher denke ich, dass es beim Aufbau von Systemen offensichtlich darum geht, die Kanäle zu schaffen, über die diese Spieler Bindungen eingehen können, und je mehr Ebenen man um diese Bindungskanäle zwischen den verschiedenen Gilden oder Spielern herum hat, desto nachhaltiger ist diese Beziehung.[17] – Steven Sharif
Gildenkriege
Gildenkrieg-Mechaniken beinhalten:[18]
- Einen Kriegserklärungszeitraum.[18]
- Zielorientierte Bestandteile.[18]
- Sieg- und Kapitulationsvereinbarungen.[19]
- Gilden können mehrere andere Gilden/Allianzen zur gleichen Zeit bekriegen.[19]
- Gildenkriege sind nicht vom PvP Flagging System betroffen.[19]
We're taking guild politics to a whole new direction in regards to playing those conflicts out.[20] – Steven Sharif
Gildenvorteile
Ideas that are being considered by the developers:[21]
- Guild activities.
- Passives.
- Questlines.
- Gildenhallen.
- Gildenschlösser.
- Name of guild displayed next to character name.[22]
- Guild tabards.[22]

The developers are considering the following guild tools:[21][23]
- Recruitment tools.
- Management tools.
- Delegation tools.
- Motivational systems.
- Communication tools.
- Guild alerts.
- Board messages.
- In game chat.
- Calendar.
- Roster.
Guild emblems
The user interface will allow the creation of custom guild emblems.[24]
Crowdfunding guild rewards
Guild themed character cloaks were cosmetic rewards for backing at the Leader of Men level or higher in the Kickstarter and Sommer-Crowdfunding campaigns.[25]
- Guild cloaks will work the same way that accessory appearances from the cosmetic packs work, in that they are applied to the item and take over that appearance. They can not be applied over costumes. [26] – Cody Peterson
Kickstarter/Sommer-Crowdfunding guild rewards[27] are assigned to a guild by the owner of the reward.[28]
- Once assigned, the reward becomes an asset of that guild.[28]
- Guild members that leave the guild no longer have access to the unique items of that guild.[28]
Gildenhaus
Der begriff "Gildenhaus" bezieht sich auf Gildengebäude, nicht Spielerhäuser, die der Gilde gehören.[29]
Gildenhallen
Gildenhallen dienen als Anlaufstelle für eine Gilde und bieten eine Vielzahl von Vorteilen und Anpassungsoptionen. [27]
- Gildenhallen können auf Gildengrundstücken oder innerhalb von nodes platziert werden.[31][32][33]
- In-Node-Gildenhallen können nur von Patron-Gilden dieser Node beansprucht werden. Diese haben andere Vergünstigungen und Vorteile als Hallen auf Eigentumsgrundstücken. [33]
- Wenn eine Gilde ein bestimmtes Level erreicht, erhält ihr Gildenmeister ein Gildeneigentumszertifikat, um die Platzierung einer Gildenhalle zu ermöglichen.[31]
- Gildenhallen sind Ziele in Gildenkriegen. .[34]
- Gildenhallen können nur durch eine erfolgreiche Nodebelagerung zerstört werden. Dies steht im Gegensatz zu Gildenfestungen, die in einem Gildenkrieg belagert werden können. [31][34][35]
- Eine Gildenhalle beherbergt nur eine einzige Gilde.[36]
Gildenhallen sind der ultimative Ausdruck der Macht einer Gilde! In Ashes dienen diese Strukturen als Brennpunkte für eine Gilde und bieten allen Gilden, die sie errichten, eine ganze Reihe von Vorteilen sowie Anpassungsoptionen.[27]
Vorteile
Gildenhallen unlock actions a guild can perform within a node.[37]
- Allow guilds to participate in the shareholder system.[37]
Gildenschlösser
Five guild castles exist in Ashes of Creation.[40][39][41]
- Each of the five castles has its own static layout. Castle siege defenses include deploying traps and blockades within the castle, as well as hiring mercenary NPCs to defend specific locations.[40][42][43][44]
- While the hard structural environment is static and not able to be- you're not building a castle if you own a castle, you're inheriting a historic ruined castle that is representative of the past because it has some tie-in to specific types of powers that we haven't gotten into from a lore perspective yet but we haven't expressed to the community. That's something that we're going to leave for the community to find out when they play. But when you place mercenaries and you place those blockades and you place those traps, that affects the level design of the castle according to the strategy you might use to defend it.[40] – Steven Sharif
- Burgbelagerungen occur in the open world but may become instanced based on testing.[45]
- There is one castle located on an island that is able to be affected by naval combat.[49][50]
- Castles will initially be occupied by an NPC adversary. These are the primary antagonists in the storyline. Gilden have a period of time to level up in order to siege these castles.[51][52]
- These Castles are occupied when players arrive on Verra, and their current inhabitants will have to be removed before any player can claim them. Castles will be dangerous and high-level raid zones until they can be cleared, and the first group of players to do so will gain the Castle as their reward.[39]
Vorteile
Gildenschlösser provide benefits and trophies for guilds that capture and control them.[38][55]
- These benefits increase the longer a guild holds its castle.[38]
There are levers and dials that are present to both the owners of Castles as well as the elected officials of Nodes that during their administration they have the ability to impact and influence the region around them.[56] – Steven Sharif
Guild castles exert a King or Queen's presence over nodes within their region.[38][56][57]
- Levy taxes for the purposes of defense (additional to taxes already imposed by node governments).[38][57]
- Activate events and abilities that benefit node citizens under their rule.[38][57]
- Establish special relationships with Bürgermeister to help build up the three dedicated castle nodes.[38]
- Unlock additional types of buildings in nodes.[57]
- Exert control and pressure over one of the five economic regions.[38]
Gildenfestungen
Gildenfestungen sind belagerbare Gildenhallen in Ashes of Creation. Diese unterscheiden sich von Knotenpunkten und Gildenschlössern.[35]
- Gildenfestungen sind Ziele in Gildenkriegen.[34]
Zergs
Zergs are empowered by fast-travel. Meaningful travel times are intended to prevent zerg play from being so much of an influence.[1]
Encounters are designed to have meaning in terms of how boss skills and abilities relate to group compositions, tactics and strategies. Zerging is not experiencing content.[59] There are different ways to make a fight more difficult for larger sized groups without relying solely on stat buffs or making the boss a "damage sponge".[60]
- Raid and dungeon bosses have specific mechanics and abilities that players need to learn and react to.[60] Zergs that are not aware of these mechanics or react to them appropriately will be wiped.[59]
- There may be environmental hazards and AoE effects that cause more damage based on the number of players present.[60]
- There is a give-and-take for guilds that want to see a larger number of members as opposed to a more focused group that may be a part of an alliance.[61]
We're very cognizant of the fact that we don't want to see zerging be a mechanic that's utilized by guilds to accomplish content or just to steamroll over sieges... There are specific mechanics that we are working on that will be seen through the testing phases that relate to a degree of understanding of certain systems that can't just be overrun with numbers.[61] – Steven Sharif
Mechanics that encourage political intrigue will play a role in destabilizing zergs.[62]
The best way that I found in games I played previously to take down a zerg is to cause drama from within... It's that conflict inside of the politicking that happens in that big organization. If we provide opportunities for division to occur then it also provides stability to keep a server healthy away from that zerg mentality also... If we approach the castle siege and we've destroyed the walls and we're in the throne room and we're about to cast on the penultimate thing and I at this time am just so excited from what's happening that I'm like "screw it I'm gonna go for it". It's gonna be mine. I'm gonna take the taxes for the next month. I'm gonna take all the gear from the castle. I'm gonna take everything... We want that political intrigue to be present in the game.[62] – Steven Sharif
Objective-based game play helps to balance the zerg mentality.[63]
I always feel that if you balance based on groups that in your balance focus is to incorporate features that play well from a player versus player perspective as well as a player versus environment perspective: Having support classes, having DPS and tanks that can obstruct movement and/or create bottlenecks on the field and stuff like that. I think a well-rounded raid it will perform better against a non well-rounded raid, however then you incorporate the second aspect of numbers; and that's where again mobility, organization, leadership tactics. Having objectives in gameplay that make those important helps to balance the zerg mentality that a lot of guilds can tend to have.[63] – Steven Sharif
Instanzierung doesn't play a major role in limiting zergs, due to 80% of content in Ashes of Creation being open-world.[64]
- There may be instanced locations within castle and node sieges where specific groups can participate in certain objective-based waypoints.[64]
Zerging is always a problem in a lot of these MMORPGs where you really can't control the number of participants in certain open-world systems; and in that sense instancing is a great tool that designers can sometimes use to curate a particular number of participants that you want. But the predominant amount of content within Ashes of Creation, over 80% of which is is open-world content, so instancing is very limited.[64] – Steven Sharif
Aktienmärkte
Stock exchanges (also called Stock markets and Share markets) enable players to buy and sell shares in Nodes, Gilden and Soziale Organisationen.[65][66][67]
- Stock exchanges were a Kickstarter stretch goal unlocked for reaching the $3 million dollar mark.[67]
- This is a planned feature for the launch of Ashes of Creation.[65]
- The value of stocks is influenced by world events and the performance of nodes, Soziale Organisationen or guilds.[68]
- Hard metrics, such as quest lines, nearby resources, citizen progression, and purchases of local real estate, will determine the value of purchasable shares.[67]
- There is no regulatory commission to restrict the purchase and sale of stocks.[68]
Zugehörigkeiten
Ein Zugehörigkeiten-Baum wird entwickelt, welcher bestimmt, welche Einheiten an Attacken gegen andere Einheiten in der Hierarchie teilnehmen könnnen.[69]
- Allianzen.[69]
- Bürgerschaft.[69]
- Gilden.[69]
- Gruppen.[69]
- Schlachtzüge.[69]
- Religionen.[69]
- Gesellschaft.[69]
There is guild affiliation, there's party affiliation, there's a raid affiliation, alliance affiliation, there's a citizenship affiliation, there's society affiliation, there's religious affiliation. All of these things have some hierarchy; and within that hierarchy there's the ability to participate within certain systems. So for example, if you have a node that has fallen under your vassal state and you're a citizen of the parent node, then you could participate in a siege against the vassal node but if you're a citizen of the vassal node you could not participate as an attacker against the parent node; so there's a hierarchy, unless you were to renounce your citizenship.[69] – Steven Sharif
