Ship destructibility
Ship destruction at sea will leave its crew stranded, since ships (excluding raft caravans) may only be summoned from a port or harbor.[1][2][3]
- Ships that are completely destroyed will incur great costs to restore, and may only be re-launched from land.[4][5]
- There is no "recall" (fast-travel) option to return to shore, however death by drowning will respawn the player on shore but will incur experience debt (and other death penalties).[1]
- We don't have a recall... There is consequence for you losing the means of your mobility and if you lost the means of that mobility then those consequences are it's going to take you longer to get to where you need to go, or you're going to have to suffer some experience debt.[1] – Steven Sharif
- If a ship's navigator is killed or otherwise removed from the ship then any player will be able to navigate the ship for a period of 15 to 20 minutes before the ship despawns and becomes a wreckage.[6]
- Merchant ships that are destroyed or despawned will become a wreckage that contains a portion of the cargo it was transporting (in the same way as destroyed caravans).[7][8]
- Dynamic destructibility of ships is under consideration.[9]
Summoning ships
Корабли (excluding raft caravans) can only be summoned from a port or harbor.[10][1][2][3]
- You can summon your ships up but you'll need to summon them from land, which means that if something happens to your armada out at sea you won't have backups to just summon immediately in the middle of the fight... They'll have to do so from shore somewhere from some port or harbor.[3] – Steven Sharif
- Rivers can only be used by caravan rafts. Ships that are intended for the ocean cannot travel upstream in a river. It is too shallow.[10] – Steven Sharif
- Rivers can only be used by raft caravans.[12] Previously it was stated that ships may be able to be summoned in rivers (or other bodies of water) depending on the depth of the water.[13]
- Raft caravans are capable of transitioning to and from land caravans at the point of intersection of land and water.[14][15][16][17][18]
Harbors
Harbors are initially dilapidated points of interest that appear in coastal areas.[21] Harbors have a significant amount of influence over the waters.[22]
- Harbors are where ships get built and launched and harbors are essentially dilapidated points of interest that progress when a node nearby, coastal or not, adopts that point of interest or that harbor. Then the node can contribute towards building up the harbor; and players who may not be citizens of that node can still go to that harbor and access its services.[21] – Steven Sharif
- A nearby node, coastal or not, will adopt the harbor point of interest and will contribute to its progression.[21]
- Ship building, ship upgrades, and other services offered by the harbor can be utilized by citizens and non-citizens of the node.[21]
- Previously it was stated that harbors would be controlled by a nearby Деревня (стадия 3) (or higher) coastal node.[23][22][24][25] It was also stated that ship workstations are only unlocked by the advancement of that coastal node.[26][24][25][27]
- Harbors have a disembarkation zone that merchant ships can cross to be guided into the harbor.[20]
- Merchant ships can only be launched and received at harbors in a similar way that land caravans can only be launched and received at a caravansary.[20]
- Harbors will grant quests that are related to naval content.[22][28][25]
- Прибрежные узлы are not directly siegeable by sea. Instead, harbors offer objective-based naval gameplay during node sieges.[23][29][30]
Naval combat involves different types of Корабли with varying capabilities, armaments and roles to play out on the high seas. There will be a balance and counterbalance between ships from PvP and PvE perspectives.[31][32]
- PvP в море is between ships.[32]
- Naval PvE includes open sea raids and sea-based bosses.[31][32]
- Certain ship classes and components may support ramming of other vessels or raid bosses.[33]
- Ship weapons can damage both players and structures.[34]
- Damage done by ship weapons such as potion launchers will generate threat.[35]
- Characters can also use ranged skills during naval combat. Taunts and other threat generation skills can be utilised for tanking at sea.[35]
- Coastal points of interest, such as harbors, offer objective-based naval gameplay during node sieges.[29]
- There is a castle located on an island that is only able to be affected by naval combat.[29][36]
- Battles at sea will be epic. They will have some supreme rewards and/or losses if the battle succeeds or fails.[37] – Steven Sharif
- Naval combat allows ships to be hijacked, destroyed and looted, but it doesn't allow the attackers to permanently keep the ships.[38]
- Q: Will there be a way to produce enough experience for a node for those who want to spend the majority of their time on the open seas?
- A: The open seas have have a good amount of content; and that content when completed will give its contribution to a nearby node; and that is something that people who live on the sea, or desire to live on the sea, will be able to um contribute in a way.[39] – Steven Sharif
PvP в море
Канониры оружейных платформ корабля смогут начать морское PvP-сражение против других кораблей в следующих трёх случаях:[40]
- В ходе события (например, войны между гильдиями или узлами) между сторонами.[40]
- Когда корабль заходит в область, в которой автоматически включается метка участника PvP.[40]
- В результате PvP в открытом мире, используя систему активации меток и скверны.[40]
Guns and gunpowder
Gunpowder (black powder) weapons will not be present in Ashes of Creation.[43][44]
- Корабли will utilize a larger form of potion launcher in place of canons. These canons will be able to be equipped with different potions that have different effects.[42]
- I previously said there was not going to be gunpowder in Ashes. What there will be is something very similar to gunpowder but has a more arcane nature to it. It's not necessarily going to be explainable through the conventional means of chemistry, metallurgy, and physics and what not, but rather the Essence is the core component of many types of magic, one of which is obviously going to be evocation type magic; and that evocation can have some explosive tendencies.[43] – Steven Sharif
Weaponry such as Potion launchers, Siege weapons and weapons used in Naval combat are based on the arcane arts.[42][43][45]
As we said in the past, were not really about that black powder life. Instead it's really going to be focused on the arcane arts: The elements; the use of radiance and darkness; and then those being employed in larger weaponry, such as the type of siege weaponry between ship battles as well as those and sieges. A potion launcher is an example of the arcane energies that can be mastered in order to facilitate these highly destructive alchemical blends that can be created.[45] – Steven Sharif
Hijacking ships
Certain ships can be hijacked, destroyed and looted, but the ships themselves cannot be permanently captured.[38][8]
- The cargo on a merchant ship will be similar to caravans in that the ship must be destroyed in order to capture the loot from its wreckage.[8]
