Warehouse is a Business service building in Ashes of Creation.[2][3][4][5][6][7]
| Node building type | Constructible service building |
|---|---|
| Construction duration | 1 day |
- For Player and Node Storage
- Warehouses were previously defined as default service buildings that come pre-built with nodes.[2][3]
- Cargo for shipment by caravan is stored at the caravansary not in a player's inventory. Stored cargo is visible via the warehouse UI.[8][9]
- Completed items can be accessed by players in warehouses at any node regardless of citizenship or housing ownership.[10][11][12]
- Gatherables and materials may only be accessed in the warehouse location they were deposited in.[13]
- Requisition agents for mayoral buy orders are located at node warehouses.[1]
- Players are prohibited from moving gatherables, materials, and commodities in sealed crates out of depositories within a node following a siege declaration against that node.[13][14][15][7]
- A portion of all gatherables and materials that were stored in successfully sieged nodes become lootable.[16][17][18][6][7][19]
- Whole items (crafted items) are not vulnerable to loss during node sieges.[20]
- Corrupt players are not able to utilize storage systems.[21][22][23]
- Player stalls are linked to that player's warehouse.[20]
 | Some of the following information has not been recently confirmed by the developers and may not be on the current development roadmap. |
- A warehouse ability may enable a player to transfer non-material goods between alternate characters. This excludes resources, materials or anything that relies on the caravan system.[5]
| Some of the following information has likely been superceded by newer information. It is included here for archival reasons. |
- Personal caravans may be launched from any point of storage (including warehouses).[24]
Unloading cargo
Alpha-2 Unpack Crate UI.[25]
That timer scales with how the node progresses. That's actually an extremely fast unpacking time, but typically it's going to be on the scale of days.[25] – John Collins
Materials crates that are transported by caravans (or merchant ships) may be unloaded into a node's warehouse.[25]
- Unpacking time can take a number of IRL days to complete. This can be decreased through node policies, service building upgrades, and node progression.[26][25]
- That throttle of timing out the unloading of materials and supplies is intended to mitigate the impact on the local economy that transiting materials has within the world. Right now that's a runway, which means that through certain decisions that a node makes, whether it be upgrades or policies, they can reduce that amount of time significantly; and by creating a differential or a disparity of the amount that days would represent, versus hours, you can have the nodes that select those types of upgrades and policies really become the epicenter of trade within a particular region.[26] – Steven Sharif
- Player commodities may be sold directly from caravan (or merchant ship) inventory to commodities vendors.[25]
Requisition agents
Requisition agents are NPCs that enable players to fulfill buy orders.[1]
- Requisition agents are located at the warehouse default service building in nodes.[1]
