Brew Bear pre-order pack cosmetic mount skin concept art.

Brew Bear was a cosmetic mount skin in a pre-order pack.

Occasionally, a wayward cub wanders its way into a local cottage, invariably helping itself to what produce may be present. Enterprising individuals take it upon themselves to raise the cub as one of their own, knowing that its great strength can be of significant aid, especially preceding the coming of the cold. This particular bear carries a sizable quantity of seasonal brew on its sides. A furry coat and copious libations are sure to keep many warm in the coming season.

Fent's Tavern

Fent's Tavern 3D render.

Inns and taverns dot the rural lands of Verra, and serve as crucial waypoints between destinations. However, one tavern has a unique patron that not many would expect. A man by the name of Fent is the owner of the quaint establishment, and upon entering, patrons may notice a large furry mass in the corner. Closer inspection reveals it to be no less than a fully grown bear, complete with his own bear sized flagon of mead. Fent and the beast harbor a strong kinship, and on a particularly raucous night, the two will even have a good wrestle on the tavern floor. Many have pressed Fent for the tale of his unlikely companion, and although it is one he is willing to tell, there's always a solemn gleam in his eyes when he tells it.

Years ago, when Fent was still a young hunter, he was out during a particularly harsh blizzard. Every tree in the forest looked like the others, but as luck would have it, he stumbled upon a cave. Fent managed to get a fire going and intended to stay until the torrent outside ceased. While waiting, he fell asleep, but was startled awake when he heard something slowly creeping through the cave towards him. He quickly bounded up from the floor. A bear from deep within the cavern had wandered close to the entrance, and despite his fear, Fent slowly began to reach for his knife. The cave reverberated with the bear's roar as it charged. It knocked Fent down, but not before he managed to jam the blade deep into its neck. Fent kept blindly stabbing even as he was being mauled, kicking and gnashing against the beast. The bear struggled, then finally stopped. Fent laid there for what seemed like forever, straining to catch his breath. Eventually, he gathered to his feet with a wince. Amidst his senses, he began to hear a faint whimpering. A wayward cub had wandered its way to the grim scene. It mewled after its mother, yet there was no reply. Guilt welled up in Fent's body, even as his body wracked with pain. Feeling responsible for this young cub, he placed it next to him alongside the fire, and tried to nurse his wounds as best he could. After visibility had improved, he took the cub onto his shoulder, and slowly made his way back to his home.

The cub proved to be troublesome to care for at first. He was almost always hungry, and Fent awoke several times in the middle of the night to the telltale clattering of the larder being raided. Fent deemed that the cub needed a dwelling of his own, and decided to place the beast within the shed. The cub would still mewl, despite the warmth of its new home. Although hunting, was Fent's primary vocation, he had a knack for brewing in his spare time. Fent decided to use some local honey as the base of his new brew. A concoction sure to quickly allow the bear to slip into the realm of sleep. After all, bears love honey. Months of experimentation had yielded a potent mead that, though quite a quantity was required, certainly put the bear out. Despite the circumstances, the bear looked to Fent as his caretaker, and the two began to trust each other. The beast had taken an unexpectedly great liking to Fent's mead, and in honor of his discovery, named his friend Mug.

Years later, after deciding that brewing and running a tavern would be far safer than being a hunter, Fent opened his own. Mug is surprisingly capable in helping around the tavern, and after a hard days work, loves to relax on the floor with a large flagon of mead; usually alongside other equally relaxed floorborne patrons.

Cosmetics

Rime and Regal‎ pre-order pack cosmetics.

We are very transparent in the business model of subscription with cosmetic only marketplace... I respect and understand the opinion of rather having a box price in-place of cosmetics, but that is not the direction I’ve decided to take. After weighing the benefits to the game and its population, I believe a lower barrier to entry is healthier in the long run, and the steady content release and quality of the product will sustain the retention for subscription and in-turn provide a healthier content release strategy for Ashes. – Steven Sharif

Cosmetics provide a wide array of customization in Ashes of Creation.

• There are no pay-to-win gameplay benefits from any purchasable items.

All skin cosmetic items are cosmetic items only and do not grant the user any other benefit. The lore text is flavor text, and background of the creatures and items in the world of Verra.

• Types of cosmetics:
  • Skins
  • Costumes
  • Racial skins
  • Dyes

• Equitable cosmetics, both from a quantity and quality standpoint, are achievable through in-game means. Cosmetics achievable in-game will be on-par, and in the case of legendary skins, even more elaborate than shop items.

I want to make sure that equitable cosmetics both from a quantity and quality standpoint are achievable through in-game achievements. Time, effort should let you be happy with what you can accomplish. – Steven Sharif

In my opinion quality of cash shop cosmetics should be equal to in game achievable cosmetics, but offer a diverse selection of unique looks. – Steven Sharif

• There will be legendary cosmetics that are only achievable in-game that will never be offered in the cosmetic shop.

The most grand looking cosmetics will be from in-game achievment only. – Steven Sharif

• There will not be recolors or material swaps on the monthly cosmetics as a means to populate in-game achievements.
  • There will be variants of the monthly cosmetics for Неигровые персонажи and Монстры.
  • Component pieces of cosmetic armor may be reused in other in-game achievable gear sets.

From an armor standpoint, we cut armor sets up into many different pieces. These pieces can sometimes be used as part of other sets, that may include helmets, wrists, gloves etc. So while you will not see an achievable white version of the corvid castigator set in the game for example, you may see its shoulder piece used in another set, or its leggings, or wrist piece used in another set (not every piece as to form the whole set, but perhaps a couple pieces). This would be difficult to notice at first glance, due to the material, texture and color variation used, but this modular approach to content creation makes achieving a wide variety of looks achievable for an MMORPG of our size. – Steven Sharif

• Different variants of store purchased cosmetic creatures (Pets and Ездовые животные) may exist in the wild.

While the exact same skin will not be available again in the future once it's gone from the Shop, these skins are all variants of creatures that you can expect to see across Verra - so perhaps you will find one with a similar style in-game! – Sarah Flanagan

• Cosmetics can be used by all races but there may be slight variations to make them work with the body builds of each race.

• There will not be mascot looking/furry cosmetics.

It's important to remember, Ashes is a NO-BOX COST subscription only game, with an optional cosmetic marketplace. This achieves a few things from a monetization model. Having a lower barrier to entry for players to try the game when they don't have to fork out $60 for the box price is good, our box price is 0$. This also places an emphasis on the game's retention and our continual updates and content creation to keep players playing and staying subscribed (a put your money where your mouth is sort of philosophy for us as a company). It also means players don't have to spend $60 every time there is an expansion. – Steven Sharif

Is there an answer that satisfies everyone? Nope. And that's ok. We are open and transparent with our philosophies and business model. You know what you are getting with Ashes and to me, given my experiences in other games, it is a nice breath of fresh air. – Steven Sharif

• Costume and pet cosmetics don't have a level restriction. Building, ship, caravan and mount cosmetics require an in-game item to be obtained first to apply the cosmetic.

I know there have been quite a few questions regarding cosmetics over the years. As we get further along in development, we'll be providing more specific information regarding what specific buildings, items, etc., you can place each cosmetic on. We'll update this for all past items. – Margaret Krohn

• Cosmetics are not tradeable with other players but can be reassigned to other characters (alts) within the same account.

Cosmetic store

Ashes of Creation магазин косметики.

Будут легендарные косметические предметы, которые можно заработать и получить в игре с помощью игровых систем, но это потребует значительных усилий и работы; и эта косметика будет наравне с косметикой, предлагаемой на рынке... Это дает компании дополнительный доход, чтобы мы могли продолжать финансировать разработку контента и преодолевать разрыв, который не имеет какой-либо механики pay-to-win. – Steven Sharif

Магазин косметики позволяет игрокам покупать косметику для использования в Ashes of Creation. Косметический магазин предлагает товары в ограниченном количестве и в ограниченное время, чтобы помочь поддерживать развитие игры.

• Косметика как с точки зрения количества, так и с точки зрения качества, достижима с помощью внутриигровых средств.
• Ничто в косметическом магазине не даёт значительное преимущество над игроками не осуществлявших игровых покупок pay to win.

Ничто в нашем магазине никогда не будет платным, поскольку мы считаем, что эта практика сильно вредит жанру MMORPG..

• Магазин косметики предложит разнообразный выбор неповторимых образов.

Я хочу поощрить покупки в косметическом магазине для поддерживаемости дополнений которые мы задумали, так как мы не берём единоразовую плату за игру. Я хочу поощрить это предлагая ограниченные предметы: ограниченные по времени и количеству, так чтобы при их покупке вы были уверены, что они не появятся позже в каком-либо другом качестве. Однако, я хочу убедиться что сравнимые косметические предметы, как по качеству, так и по количеству будут доступны посредством выполнения внутриигровых достижений. Потраченные время и усилия должны радовать результатами – Steven Sharif

• Все предметы из косметического магазина будут недоступны для торговли. Для косметических предметов не будет предусмотрено механизма передачи в дар.

Я не хочу, чтобы косметические предметы, которые можно купить на рынке, можно было передавать... потому что это своего рода перевод денег за потенциально что-то в игре. – Steven Sharif

Skins

Cinderhorn Steer pre-order pack cosmetic mount skin.

Providing these limited options that collectors out there like when it comes to achieving and/or purchasing cosmetics. It means something I think when players make that decision to purchase or they go through the rigorous portion of achieving those things in game that it is not just everywhere around them and becomes meaningless at that point. – Steven Sharif

Accessories/armor, Buildings, Караваны, Ездовые животные, Pets, and Корабли sold in the cosmetic store are skins.

• Skins are cosmetic items that do not grant the user any benefit.

• Skins are only be able to be applied to things that have already been earned, crafted or found within Ashes of Creation.
  • Certain skins require specific items or item tiers have been achieved in-game before they can be used.

Owning cosmetics does not guarantee the acquisition of the item the cosmetic can be used on. Players must still achieve the corresponding item/building. – Steven Sharif

• The lore on store cosmetics is flavor text.

• Caravan skins change the appearance of an in-game mount and in-game caravan that are hooked up to each other.
  • The caravan and mount skin components are not able to be utilized separately.

• The best skins will be in-game achievable.

The best skins will be in-game achievable (obviously “best” is subjective, so I’d say the most ornate and detailed/unique). – Steven Sharif
