Corrupted player in the Alpha-1 preview.[1]

When you gain that corruption you have the potential of losing your completed items, your weapon, your armor, stuff that is very difficult to achieve; and then the other aspect of that is, that in order to deter basically players taking alternate characters and saying this is my PK alt, the more players you kill, the more corruption you gain, the higher your combat efficacy in PVP diminishes. If you're out there and you killed 20 players... you will not be able to perform in PVP any longer. You will need to take that character and go work off that corruption. The other aspect of corruption is that if you kill another player, who is a non-combatant and the level disparity between you and that player is great, you will gain a higher amount of corruption from that single kill. To the point where you should not be killing a level one character.[2] – Steven Sharif

If a combatant (purple) character, or their summon, kills (PKs) a non-combatant (green) character, or any of their controlled entities, in Open-world PvP, they will be flagged as corrupted (red).[3][4][5][6] Corruption gained for killing controlled entities is a lower value than killing players.[4] Player corruption is a status effect (status condition).[7]

There is no incentive to go corrupt... There's zero incentive for a player to go red. It actually gives you negatives for doing that- very significant downsides.[8] – Steven Sharif
It is my expectation that the system will perform very well in keeping risk alive, but significantly curtailing or deterring the ability for players to grief.[10] – Steven Sharif
  • A player's corruption score (corruption value) increases with each non-combatant player killed.[3][9][11][12][13] Corruption score has a scaling impact on the efficacy of a character's skills in PvP combat.[14][15][16] The higher the corruption score:
    The more corruption you gain, the less effective you become in PvP and there's going to be a certain period at which point you have gained enough corruption that you're going to be gearless and you're also going to have a massive reduction in your PvP efficacy.[18] – Steven Sharif
    If you go on a murder spree and you have 10 pks under your belt then you might start feeling a significant dampening to your skill effects against other players. I don't want to give necessarily a number or curve for players to extrapolate prior to us having the ability to actually test these ideas and where those numbers are going to lie; but I would say what is the intent behind that dampening: The intent isn't to limit the fun of the player, the intent is to provide a give-and-take or a risk-versus-reward; and the risk of continuing down the road of accruing corruption is not only the loss of your gear and amplified death effects but also your ability to perform in that activity.[22] – Steven Sharif
    • Corruption penalties occur as the corruption is gained.[23]
Blight is essentially a cumulative PK score that gets kept track of as a stat on your character and even if you have no corruption but you've killed 30 people over the last five days, and you worked off that corruption, your 31st kill will accrue much faster corruption, and so will your 32nd and 33rd regardless of your corruption states. So that is intended to to help curtail the amount of corruption that's happening.[25] – Steven Sharif
You can't necessarily time perfectly the damage or understand even the health of the player. Unless you were in their party you cannot see an opponent's health as well, so that's another component that adds risk..[27] – Steven Sharif
  • Corruption during Alpha-2 is actively being iterated on. It will likely be over-tuned be more debilitating to compensate for players who are not concerned with losing gear or progression during a testing phase.[28][29]
The corruption system has been something that we have prioritized iteration on over the course of these last few weeks as, of course, there is a competing problem with corruption right now, in the sense that 1) it's not fully feature complete, but 2) we're also in a temporary phase of development being in Alpha, where a lot of player perspective on their gear potential loss and/or progression loss that corruption is supposed to deter for is just not as strong hitting in an Alpha environment, where people are willing to lose their character. So, in that sense we're going to balance a little bit perhaps overbalance for corruption during the testing period.[28] – Steven Sharif
  • Corrupted players may kill bounty hunters without acquiring additional corruption score.[37][38]
    • Corrupted player's combat penalties do not apply when battling bounty hunters.[37]
  • There is a 60 second timer to logout while corrupt. Force-disconnecting the client during the cooldown will leave the character in-game.[15][42]
Q: Will there be any large-scale consequences when many players in a group guild region religion etc become corrupted frequently or for an extended period of time?
A: There are not group dynamics or mechanics that revolve around mass murdering people in the world. The corruption system is intended to deter mass murdering, not to provide incentives by which players can go out and gain corruption.[43] – Steven Sharif
Q: If my guild has no one corrupted and your guild is like always killing people and always corrupted, will your guild have repercussions because they're corrupted versus my guild?
A: No I don't think so either. And the reason why is we want to deter it, but we don't want to make the system meaningless; and if the deterrent becomes too heavy-handed then it's a system without a purpose. And I think that the intent behind the corruption is that like during a rise in passion and like anger and whatever you want to make this decision and do something and you'll suffer the repercussions later. But if those repercussions are just overwhelmingly bad and even anti-social in the sense that like your guild is like hey man you went corrupted and this gives us like corruption points on the guild, and like you're out of here, then people just aren't going to choose to use it; and then at which point might as well just take it out. So I think there's a healthy balance between the type of deterrent used.[44] – Steven Sharif
  • There are no plans currently to introduce policies or mechanics for players to designate specific areas as corruption-free or "high stakes" zones.[45][46]

  • Corruption has a visible effect on a player’s appearance.[50]

Corruption score

Corruption score (corruption value) tracks the aggregate amount of player corruption a character has accumulated due to the PvP flagging system.[11]

  • A player’s corruption score increases with each non-combatant player killed.[11][12][13] The wider the level disparity between the players, and the higher the attacker's Blight, the more corruption they gain.[11][12][13]
  • Corruption score has a scaling impact on the efficacy of a character's skills in PvP combat.[16] The higher the corruption score, the more corruption penalties are gained.[23]
  • Dying removes a significant portion of a player's corruption score.[51]
  • A quest may be utilized to reduce the player kill (PK) count of a corrupt player in order for them to accumulate less corruption score in the future.[3][52][51]
  • Player corruption is a status effect (status condition).[7]

Blight

Gg20O28XgAAUa 5.jpg

Blight (PK value/PK count/player kill count) tracks the total number of PKs (player kills) a character has committed over the lifetime of its existence.[3][14][24][9][17][11][12]

Blight is essentially a cumulative PK score that gets kept track of as a stat on your character and even if you have no corruption but you've killed 30 people over the last five days, and you worked off that corruption, your 31st kill will accrue much faster corruption, and so will your 32nd and 33rd regardless of your corruption states. So that is intended to to help curtail the amount of corruption that's happening.[25] – Steven Sharif

Removing corruption

Cemetery concept art by Tad Ehrlich.[53]

The primary means to remove corruption is through death. Multiple deaths may be necessary to remove all corruption.[3][54][32] – Steven Sharif

Corruption score is granted by killing other non-combatants. That corruption score whittles away slowly based off of experience gained or death had.[3]
Any experience that's gained by the player, whether it be through achievements in crafting, or in adventuring, or through other types of achievements: All of that experience goes towards your adventuring class experience gained; and then some experience can dual purpose towards professions as well. So if I reach an achievement in my crafting profession and that grants me additional experience within that profession to rank up, it will also grant the same amount of experience over in my adventuring level; and to that point, anytime you gain adventuring experience you tick away at the corruption.[55] – Steven Sharif
  • A quest may be utilized to reduce the player kill (PK) count of a corrupt player in order for them to accumulate less corruption score in the future.[52][51]
    • This is a design shift from a religious quest being used to directly reduce the corruption score.[56]

Bounty hunters

The bounty hunter system as it has been described is still the intent in implementation. Part of that system is up and part of that system has been stood up, but it isn't fully fleshed out or released yet.[58] – Steven Sharif

The bounty hunter system as described is currently in active development. This will be implemented during or after Alpha-2 phase-2.[39][58]

  • Players acquire the bounty hunter title through a quest available to citizens of Military Stage 4 (Town) nodes and potentially their vassals or affiliated nodes.[59][13]
  • Bounty hunters can activate their Pathfinding ability to reveal corrupted player locations on their map.[60][61]
    • This will flag the bounty hunter for combat only to corrupted players for a period of one hour from the time of activation.[60]
    • The pathfinding ability can be toggled on or off.[60][62]
    • It is possible that bounty hunters will be permanently flagged versus corrupted players with the pathfinding ability toggled off. This design change will be decided based on testing.[63]
  • The accuracy of bounty hunter maps is determined by a player's progression in the bounty hunter system.[64]
  • Corrupted players may kill bounty hunters without acquiring additional corruption score.[37][38]
    • Corrupted player's combat penalties do not apply when battling bounty hunters.[37]
  • Chief bounty hunter is a node government title that grants special access to NPCs in a node.[65]
  • Credit for killing a corrupted player goes to the bounty hunter who lands the last hit (killing blow). This may be changed to damage contribution in future.[66]

Bounty hunter maps

Corrupted players with a high enough corruption score will be visible on the world and mini maps. These players will have markers posted on the map by an NPC from a Military node of at least stage 4 (Town), and will only be granted to players who have the Bounty hunter title.[60][67] The accuracy of bounty hunter maps is determined by a player's progression in the bounty hunter system.[64]

Taverns are one of the locations that bounties will be posted. As players gain corruption, taverns may offer bounties to eliminate those players; or have a specific area cleared of problem players, thus giving a POI (point of interest) on the world map.[68]

Bounty hunter Pathfinding ability

Skill Icon Origin Description
Pathfinding Bounty hunter Reveals corrupted player locations on the bounty hunter's map.[60][69] Activating this ability will flag the bounty hunter for combat only to corrupted players for a period of one hour from the time of activation.[60] The pathfinding ability can be toggled on or off.[60][62]

Corrupted players potentially gain rewards for killing bounty hunters.[70]

NPC guards

NPC guards will kill corrupted players on sight.[72][73][74]

  • NPC guards are capable of being killed, but they have high skill levels, damage mitigation, and power levels.[75]
Guards are capable of being killed. However, that is a very tall barrier to surpass; meaning that their skill level is relatively high. Their damage mitigation, their output, and power: those things are very difficult to overcome. But they can be killed; and again you can upgrade guards through policies, through upgrades within the barracks structures; and you can even place mercenaries and guards ahead of certain events.[75] – Steven Sharif

Player flagging

The open world PvP flagging system is designed to deter people from griefing other players without limiting opportunities for open conflict.[81][82][8][6]

We do incentivize players to fight back, or to participate in PvP through the flagging system, but not to PK. Not to go corrupt.[8] – Steven Sharif
  • Players can participate in open world PvP with one another without having to resort to murder.[83]
  • The penalties are intended to be severe enough to deter any type of spawn camping.[84]
  • Summons follow the same PvP flagging rules as players and share the player's flag status.[5][85]
  • Items are not provided to players until crafting or gathering interactions are complete. Players interrupted before completion will not lose these items or resources.[86]

pvp flagging diagram.png

There are three levels of flagging for world PvP in Ashes of Creation.[13]

  • Non-combatant (green)
    • All players start as non-combatants.[32]
    • Non-forced attacks, including AoE and status effects, will not hit non-combatant players.[87][88]
    • Green players killed by mobs (the mob deals the killing blow) do not flag attacking players as corrupt, but since the exact health of another player is not known (outside of the same party, raid, alliance, or guild), attackers run the risk of killing the player and becoming corrupt.[89]
    • Player abilities with CC effects do not apply to non-combatants. The target of a CC ability must be flagged in order to suffer the CC effects. This prevents players from opening attacks that stun non-combatant players during a pull for example.[17]
    • Player flagging can be triggered by looting a non-corrupted character who is not in the same raid, party, or guild within a certain timeframe.[73][90] Previously it was stated that non-combatants will not be flagged for looting bodies.[91]
    • A UI setting will able players to opt-in to allow (or prevent) their beneficial spells or non-beneficial AoEs, from hitting combatants.[92][93][94]
There's supposed to be a combat setting that allows you to, by default, not affect non-flagged players with AoE. So, even if you're force flagged, that setting only applies the targeted spell against other flagged or corrupted players.[92] – Steven Sharif
  • Combatant (purple)
    • Players are flagged as combatants if they attack another (non-corrupted) player when carrying out a forced attack. If the attacked player fights back, they are also flagged as combatants, otherwise the attacked player will remain flagged as a non-combatant.[93][95][32]
    • Non-combatants entering an open world battleground (PvP event) are automatically flagged as combatants and remain flagged for a period of time after leaving that battleground.[13]
    • Non-combatants who heal, buff, or otherwise interact with combatants or corrupted players will be flagged as combatants.[15][33][34][35]
    • Players can kill combatants without repercussions, and are encouraged to do so, since dying while a combatant has reduced death penalties.[32]
    • Players are not able to manually set their flagging status to combatant.[95]
    • Players remain flagged for a period of 90 seconds following their most recent attack on a non-combatant or another combatant.[97]
    • Player nameplate will blink to give warning that the combatant status is about to be removed. This is targeted for sometime in Alpha-2 phase-2.[98][39]
You're not going to see griefing in the game very often; and that's because our flagging system. The corruption mechanics are based around disincentivizing a griefer or PKer but still offering the opportunity, should the occasion arise, where the benefits outweigh the risk, you have the ability to do so. If you gain corruption, which is killing a non-combatant - a player who is not fighting back basically - if you gain that corruption, your world has changed. It is not going to be a very beneficial place to be and you have the potential of losing your gear. Your combat efficacy decreases based on the amount of corruption you accrue. It is a comfortable balance between player agency and grief and basically removing player agency for other players.[99] – Steven Sharif
  • Corrupted (red)
It's important to note that the idea is going to be that, unless a player is in your party, alliance, guild, or raid that you will not have definitive knowledge of their exact hit point values. So when you do something that's sketchy like that, where you want to bring them close to death and let a monster finish him off, you are taking the risk of overhitting and actually gaining the corruption.[89] – Steven Sharif

Differences from other games

While Ashes of Creation took inspiration from Lineage II (and other games) it has also addressed several flaws in the implementation of those games.[103][17][36][104] The approach of the flagging system in Ashes of Creation is to further disincentivize griefing while still allowing the system to keep risk relevant in the open-world setting.[103]

First and foremost, PvP in Ashes exists in both opt-in systems and events, as well as our open world flagging system. And while it is true that I enjoyed and took much inspiration from games like Lineage 2, we have innovated and adapted our approach to Ashes’ flagging system in order to further disincentivize griefing while still allowing the system to keep risk relevant in the open world setting. The overwhelming majority of player’s experiences with PvP in Ashes will be through consensual systems like caravans, sieges, wars, the open sea and other events. Players will make a choice to participate in those systems or not. And if they choose to participate there will be significant rewards for success.[103] – Steven Sharif
In the open world, when competing for the scarcity of resources, raids, dungeons and or hunting grounds, an important element of risk vs reward is introduced through our flagging system. Players must be aware of their surroundings and the reputation of other players who may be in proximity. The flagging system is intended to always provide an element of risk in all settings, but also architected to ensure that griefing and PK’ing is almost never worth it. The subtleties of this system are complex, which is of course why it will require considerable testing and feedback.[103] – Steven Sharif
  • Corruption gain takes into account level disparity between the attacker and the player that was killed. The greater the disparity the higher the corruption accrued.[17][11][12][16][13] Corruption penalties occur as the corruption is gained.[23]
These are all things that I've changed in the system that help to safeguard some of those loopholes. Now of course, as we said, we can't and we don't want to 100% remove the ability for that risk to be alive- for that risk to be realized. But what we do want to do is make sure that those occasions are few and infrequent, and are not the majority of a player experience, let's say in the open world; and we do so by incorporating all of those risks and costs into a decision to gain corruption and then PK another player in the open world. It's just not going to be done often and that is my expectation and opinion. It's also the goal of the system is that griefing is not a viable option or play style. And as a result of that desire for the system, we will fine tune it in such a way through testing that that outcome is achieved. And that is the intent and purpose of the design.[15] – Steven Sharif
  • Non-combatants can attack corrupted players without flagging themselves as combatants.[15][32]
  • There is a 60 second timer to logout while corrupt. Force-disconnecting the client during the cooldown will leave the character in-game.[15][42]

Player death

Alpha-2 Player death and resurrection during the Beneath the Stone Shadows event.[105]
Alpha-2 Player death UI showing XP debt penalty.[106]

When a player dies they disintegrate into ash. The ashes contain any items lost by the player due to applicable death penalties.[107][108][109][19][110]

We have the concept of introducing flagging as a part of looting a body that is not a member of your raid, party, or guild; and if you do loot that body successfully after the required time you will be flagged and then can become a valid target in PvP.[90]
  • The developers intend to have a visual callout and a minimap indicator to identify a player's own loot pile.[111]
It might even be the case that their particular bag space doesn't have available location for a three-by-one log; and you're a lumberjack and they see you just chopping down these trees and you're like, there's no point in me engaging with this person, because I have nothing to gain due to my capacity.[115] – Steven Sharif
  • There will be a period of time following a player's death before their mule despawns. Other players must kill that player's mule to be able to loot it.[116]
    • If the mule dies its corpse will contain the same percentage of lootable items according to the player's death penalties.[116][117]
  • Death by falling is possible.[120]
    • Fall damage that occurs while mounted will be first applied to the mount; and if the mount dies as a result, then the remaining damage may overflow onto the player, but this will be determined based on testing.[120]

Death penalties

Player death in an open world dungeon in Alpha-1.[124]

There are three primary consequences for dying; and obviously the way you die can influence the balance of those three consequences. First and foremost is you have a death debuff that lasts for you know anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes depend depending on how often you've died. That death debuff is going to have some stat and dampening effects. It's going to influence you negatively. The second thing that you have that happens to you is you acquire experience debt. Experience debt is something that lives on your progression tracker. This is experience debt that you need to go and gain experience in order to recover. Okay, now experience debt- the more you accumulate, the more impact it has stat dampening on your efficacy in battle and this is efficacy in battle with PvP or PvE. It doesn't matter. Now, the ceiling for that is, if you accrue 100% experience debt within a level, you're going to have to work off that 100% experience debt; and you will have roughly 20% max ceiling on how much your efficacy is curbed. The third thing that happens on death is that you drop parts of your material inventory: a percentage of your material inventory. Now, you could drop potentially completed items if you're corrupt when you die, so it depends the state in which you're dying. If you're when you die: if you're participating in PvP, you will suffer less consequences across the board for those three things.[125] – Steven Sharif

Objective-based PvP events accumulate lesser amounts of experience debt on death, but other penalties remain.[125][136] Previously it was stated that death penalties are not applied to event-based deaths.[137][9][138][139][140][141]

Non-corrupt players suffer reduced death penalties in naval PvP (open seas) zones.[26]

  • These penalties will be less than those for a green player.[143]
Q: We know that the normal death penalty incurs a myriad of penalties for the player, but we don't know the numbers behind this penalty. For instance, what percentage of materials do players drop? What percentage of glint is dropped? How severe is the skill and stat dampening? What is the average time it will take a player to work off XP debt from one death?
A: You're asking about percentile values. You're asking about time that it takes to recoup the percentage and whatnot. Any time that we're at a stage we're in now, and that in Alpha-2 we're going to be testing this, those values are the most subject to change. So to be clear, we're going to do [a] best-guess balance pass for Alpha-2 with the full expectation and understanding that the purpose is- and take into consideration player interaction with those numbers, and what feels best. So just off the bat, those values are not what we should be focusing on at this stage; but, to give you an idea where we are: First of all, when we're talking about dropping items that are in your material inventory, whether that be glint or that be other material types, we're talking roughly between anywhere from 20 to 30% of a stack is going to be lootable on a per-death basis. Now, that is a value that can change based off of the types of bags that you are using to carry those materials. In addition, there's other progression that can allow you, and some stats I believe, that can allow you to mitigate that value also. When we are talking about the percentage that's lost, or excuse me, not lost, the percentage of your level that is accrued as experience debt from death, generally you can expect that that's going to live around three to four percent of the level in accrued experience debt per death. However, additionally, there is a way to mitigate that percentage debt; and that is through the resurrection ability that's provided to Clerics. So, Clerics have the ability to resurrect their allies, and that resurrection will return a percentage that would have been accrued as experience debt. And that return percentage is predicated on the investment into the resability [sic], as well as the stat of the Cleric that is tied to the resurrection effect as well. So those can return percentages, so you can mitigate that to a degree. How long will it take you to recover that, and what stat dampening occurs? Anywhere within a level, if you acquire 100% experience debt for that level, you max out the experience debt, essentially, you don't ever buy that down, you're probably looking around a 20% stat efficacy dampener. So on average, if you're at 100% debt for a level, and you got to work all that off before you can start progressing at the level again, you're at around 20% overall stat dampening. Time it takes you to regain that debt is predicated on the level you're at and how you exp. So, that's a highly variable value.[126] – Steven Sharif

Skill and stat dampening

Skill and stat dampening penalties are applied when a player dies or when they gain corruption. This causes negative effects, such as a reduction of health and mana.[15][9][17][2][18]

Anywhere within a level, if you acquire 100% experience debt for that level, you max out the experience debt, essentially, you don't ever buy that down, you're probably looking around a 20% stat efficacy dampener. So on average, if you're at 100% debt for a level, and you got to work all that off before you can start progressing at the level again, you're at around 20% overall stat dampening. Time it takes you to regain that debt is predicated on the level you're at and how you exp. So, that's a highly variable value.[126] – Steven Sharif
  • Stat dampening is a stacking debuff. As such, it is an important aspect of open-world PvP, where the group (or individual) that dies the most is increasingly less likely to be capable of contesting encounters against groups (or individuals) that have not died as frequently.[144]
Some of the effects that we have which allow the victors of those engagements to continue forward with the PvE experience are things like stat dampening through the death debuff; and the death debuff, when activated multiple times for the losing party, will continue to stack and it will gain time until eventually their ability to interrupt you is now essentially decimated through these stacks of debuffs that they've received through continually losing the fight.[144] – Steven Sharif

Respawn locations

Attuning to a respawn point in Alpha-2.[145]

Non-corrupt players respawn at the closest active respawn point (Emberspring/Shrine) to their death.[134][135]

  • An attunement system prevents players from respawning at Embersprings that they have not yet visited.[145][134]
    • Characters can select a home location to respawn at when they die.[134]
We'll see how many people are dying to respawn at their home shrine and that'll be part of the data set that we use in order to tune the system.[134] – Steven Sharif
  • Events in progress may disable certain respawn points in proximity to those events, which might cause players to respawn further away.[135]
  • There will not be custom respawn points that can be placed in the world.[149]
That has to do with the lore behind death and resurrection and what it means to have your soul connected as a conduit of that spark of life given from the Goddess of Creation, being that phoenix type of avatar; and if corruption has moved into an area and an event has started, the access to those ley line oriented respawn points may be obscured- might not be accessible. So that could create some additional distance that needs to be traveled as part of these types of events.[135] – Steven Sharif
  • Corrupt players respawn at random locations in the vicinity of their death, not at regular spawn points.[61]
