Animal husbandry
Animal husbandry is a profession within the processing artisan class.[6][7][8]
- Pets, 坐騎, Livestock, and Beasts of burden can be captured and tamed to breed animals with specific genetic traits.[9][7][10][11]
- Stables are freehold buildings used for breeding animals within the animal husbandry profession.[12][13]
- Public spaces in nodes allow lower-tier animal husbandry and farming activities.[14]
- 坐騎, such as horses are an early gateway into the Animal husbandry profession.[10]
- Animal husbandry will affect aquatic mounts.[15]
- Animal husbandry mounts will not degrade over time.[16]
- Animal husbandry will be an exploritative profession.[17]
- Many animals that can be tamed and bred through the animal husbandry profession can be found in herds across the lands of Verra. These herds represent a gatherable resource, of sorts, that masters of the animal husbandry profession may then use to discover lesser-known species variants with untold powers and abilities. Mounts play a large role in Ashes of Creation, and animals like the horse are an early gateway into the unlimited possibilities that await those skilled in the arts of husbandry.[10]

Hunting is a gathering profession in Ashes of Creation.[6][7][10]
- Taming is a sub-task of hunting.[19][20]
- Animals can be found in herds across the lands of Verra that represent a gatherable resource.[10]
- Genetic lines react to the type of mount or creature that has been captured or tamed.[17]
- 戰鬥 proficiency may be required in order to tame wild beasts.[21]
- Geographical location may be relevant for the creation of certain types of breeds.[7]
- One of the big components of Animal Husbandry is going to be taming. We talk about our Artisan system and you guys know this it exists within three main branches of Gathering, Processing, and Crafting. Now of course let me caveat this: anything I say here is subject to change, but with that being said, taming is one of the Gathering professions that players will be able to use to both locate, capture, and tame wild creatures in Verra. Tamed creatures can then be trained and bred- refined with the Animal husbandry profession.[7] – Steven Sharif
- Q: Will creatures creatures be able to be used as mounts or combat pets right after they are tamed, or do they need to go through the animal husbandry process first?
- A: They will have to go through the animal husbandry process first... It's not just taming that introduces mounts and/or pets to players. Those can also be introduced through quests, in which case those particular creatures will not need to go through the animal husbandry system.[22] – Steven Sharif
Breeding mechanics
Animal husbandry will have discoverable blends of breeding.[7][25]
- Pets, 坐騎, Livestock, and Beasts of burden can be captured and tamed to breed the best version of that species.[7][11]
- Geographical location may be relevant for the creation of certain types of breeds.[7]
- Creatures will have a wide variety of traits and characteristics, strengths and weaknesses, within their species. The best version of a species will need to be blended from creatures from many places across Verra... For example, the best horse would need speed from desert horses, the coat and the health from tundra steeds, and the size and strength of ones that might be in the riverlands.[7] – Steven Sharif
- Royal mounts (such as 龙) are dropped as eggs that can be cultivated by Animal husbandry artisans with a high enough stable upgrade on their freehold.[26]
- These mounts are not breedable.[27]
- Mounts that are bred through animal husbandry may be sold at auction.[28]
- There will be a cap on the number of times an animal can be bred. This is defined by the type, quality, and purpose of the animal.[29]
Once an animal is born, there are stages of development to raise that animal from birth to adulthood. Animal husbandry practitioners will be able to specialise their focus into raising and training creatures to maximise the quality of the creature in adulthood.[7][30]
- Youngling stage: For mammals this relates to baby animals. For lizards (reptiles) this is an egg stage.[30]
Once these creatures are actually born there is an element of raising the creature. So animals need to be raised from birth to adulthood and trained for the intended purposes, either as a mount, a pet, a beast of burden, or livestock. Animal husbandry feeds a lot of these different aspects; and you'll be able to specialize your focus as an 'animal husbandrist', if that's a word, to one of those particular ends. Players have a multitude of activities to perform like feeding, cleaning the creatures, taking them out for practice rides, training them to fight monsters, etc. This period is very important however- the training period- because it will have the greatest influence on the resulting quality of the genetically determined stats and abilities of the creature once they reach adulthood. So basically as you're discovering these different genetic paths when pairing different animals, and the offspring is born, it will have a window of where a stat block will land. But where it lands will be determined by the training phase by raising the creature up- and that's going to be an important aspect.[7] – Steven Sharif
There may be a user interface rather than recipes for the animal husbandry system that records successes and failures of breeding attempts.[31]
- I'm not sure that there are going to be recipes per-se. Instead what we're thinking about with the husbandry system is going to be a user interface panel that gives a record of your successes and failures with certain types of breeding attempts; and then from there, if you choose to share that information with other individuals you can of course. But it's not something that's going to be streamlined through an interface that we would use for the player.[31] – Steven Sharif
There is a compendium of acceptable parameters for breeding[32], which isn't going to be known until players discover it.[28][33] This discovery may be different for different players.[33]
- Animals have a unique ID that is tied to the husbandry chart (compendium) that takes into account possible combinations between animals.[28] There will be odd combinations, but there will be limits to what is possible.[33]
- Discovery of certain breeding habits and different quests may grant access to slots in the compendium.[33]
A modified character creation system allows customization of 召喚師 pets and Animal husbandry.[24][30]
- Changes at the Youngling stage affect the appearance of the animal at adulthood.[30]
- During the Youngling stage there may also be quests for specific types of cosmetic features.[30]
There's definitely going to be odd combinations, whether it's a butterflyger, giraffealope I don't know, but there will be definitely caps that are present.[33] – Steven Sharif
Animal husbandry mounts
坐騎 are breedable in-game via the Animal husbandry profession.[10]
- Animal husbandry mounts will not degrade (or die) over time.[16]
Royal mounts
飛行坐騎是第三階級[35]的坐騎,可以通過成為大都市據點的領主或公會城堡的國王和王后獲得。亦可以透過擊殺傳說級世界王後掉落的蛋後孵化所得。[26][36]
- 如果是通過世界王掉落而得到,坐騎將會有15-30天的生命期限(包括上線和下線時間),[26] 期限過後坐騎就會消失。[36][37]
- 每個伺服同時只可能存在10-20隻飛行坐騎,這取決於傳說級世界王的重生時間。[38][40]
- 飛行坐騎體積比滑翔坐騎(第二階級坐騎)大3到4倍。[35]
Generally flying is not something that we're going to be doing in this game and there's a lot of reasons for that: Some of it is economic, some of it is ... you create this really great looking world and we don't want you flying over all the time.[41] – Jeffrey Bard
At any given point in time you're gonna see anywhere from 10 to maybe at max I would say around 20 based off of the legendary world boss timers. Probably 20 people who have flying abilities.[38] – Steven Sharif
Dragons are a class of these royal mounts. You can get different types of royal mounts. They don't have to be dragons. They could be some other type of legendary mythical creature... It will be an epic looking large-scale creature and people will notice you and it while you are approaching.[36] – Steven Sharif
Stables
Stables in Ashes of Creation refer to:
- A workstation used to breed animals within the Animal husbandry profession.[43][13]
- A system that stores active mounts in slots that can be used local to the stable.[44]
- The active mounts are determined based on you having that active mount as part of a slot within the stable that you're within the area of. And what that means is that mounts are relevant in battle; and if you lose your mount in battle it is a detriment. There are ways for you to bring that mount back. There are active potions that you can have available to you to do fast resurrections to reduce that cooldown potentially; and you can also interface with the stable itself if you want to swap that mount out with a different mount.[44] – Steven Sharif
- Q: Will you be able to keep your mounts that you've unlocked on your freeholds plot to move freely about as they please like in a stable or in a little fenced area?
- A: There are a number of different types of ways that creatures can be acquired: some of them in a mount format; and can be utilized in animal husbandry/livestock placements on the freehold. But from a cosmetic perspective, we don't quite have a system in place for that yet. I'm not going to rule that out for the future of post-launch, but right now it's delegated specifically to hunting, taming, livestock, and animal husbandry.[45] – Steven Sharif
Royal stables
Royal stables are a type of building in Ashes of Creation.[36]
- Castles come with a royal stables.[36]
- 市長 can choose to build royal stables within their node. Once chosen, the community will need to build the stables through quests.[36]
- Royal mounts must be mounted in a royal stables in order to fly.[36]
- The royal mounts will be the only class of mounts that can fully fly in the world; and they are will be needed to be mounted while in a royal stables. Royal stables are a building that can be built in a node if elected to be built by the mayor and supported by the community building it up through the quests to do so; and castles come with a royal stable as well. So once you have a royal stable and you become that Mayor or King or Queen, you may then mount the creature there and then take it wherever you wish.[36] – Steven Sharif
坐騎能力和數值
騎乘戰鬥
Horses
Horses are a type of animal in Ashes of Creation.[55]
- Royal horses will be able to fly.[42]
骡子
Many species of mules will be breedable.[56]
- There will be smaller mules.[57]
Hippogryphs
Hippogryphs are mounts in Ashes of Creation.[58]
- Hippogryphs can be bred via the Animal husbandry profession.[58]
Since ancient times, the hippogryph has been a symbol of noble and majestic strength for numerous cultures. They are cunning and fiercely independent creatures. A rarity it is, for one to have the opportunity to get close enough without being torn apart by their piercing beaks and talons. However, those fortunate enough to form a bond with a hippogryph will find them to be loyal beings, almost to a fault. It is a sight to see a hippogryph and its rider leading the vanguard of a prestigious army. Such is the inspiration they bring.[58]
Gryphons
Gryphons (griffins, griffons) may refer to:
- A type of mount in Ashes of Creation.[24]
- A type of mob in Ashes of Creation.[60]
Gryphons can be bred via the Animal husbandry profession.[24]
寵物成長
戰鬥寵物 will be levelable and will have gear available to them.[61][62]
- 戰鬥寵物 will incorporate some of their owner's power in a way that keeps the power progression horizontal.[63][64][65]
- Power is delegated to the pet when it is summoned and returned to the player immediately when the pet despawns.[66]
Summoner summons (召喚師 pets) do add to the summoner's power when they are summoned.[63]
Combat pets, which can be acquired by any archetype- and this is essentially an item that exists within your backpack- you cast the item to summon your pet. When it is summoned it's not intended to be a vertical gain of power, because when you make combat pets a vertical power gain, then it becomes a no choice solution: you must have a combat pet if you want to play efficiently- you must have a combat pet; and I wanted to steer clear of that because the way I wanted to approach combat pets was more of a horizontal power choice; meaning: depending on the type of encounter you're facing, depending on the threat assessment you have, a combat pet might be relevant, or it might not. One combat combat pet might be more relevant than another combat pet and that's part of your gear acquisition, your item chase to attain this more comprehensive selection of combat pets that you can have available to you and can be summoned in the event that you want to engage an encounter with a different aspect of your power curve: Not vertical, but horizontal.[63] – Steven Sharif
Summon appearance
Summoners can change the appearance of their summons.[67][68]
- Through in-game items.[67]
- Through cosmetics.[69][67]
- Potentially through a summon creation suite, based on the Animal husbandry system.[70][71]
- The great thing about the animal husbandry tech that we're creating and the idea of having customization options is that there might be some opportunity there to really create a more customized experience for the summoner and the types of visual representation that their creature has that's more to the players definition. But we will see about that. I think you guys will be getting some updates in the future about that.[70] – Steven Sharif
A summon's appearance is determined by in-game choices.[68]
- Class specific appearance.[68]
- For example: 召喚師/盜賊 (Shadowmancer) may have shadow summons.[68]
- Race specific appearance.[68][72]
Underrealm resources
資源 will be different in the Underrealm, including unique species of fish.[73][74][75]
- This will affect professions such as fishing, farming, and animal husbandry.[73][75]
- Since players may only have one Freehold, they must choose their Artisan specializations accordingly if they wish to place it in the Underrealm.[75]
