時裝商城

There is going to be legendary cosmetics that can be earned and achieved in the game through the game systems, but that's going to take a significant amount of effort and work; and those cosmetics are going to be on-par with the cosmetics offered in the marketplace... What that does is it provides additional revenue to the company so that we can continue to fund the development of content as well and bridge the divide that not having a box cost would have and not having any pay-to-win mechanics whatsoever.^[2] – Steven Sharif

The 時裝商城 enables players to purchase 時裝 for use in Ashes of Creation.^[3] The cosmetic store offers limited time, limited quantity items to help sustain game development.^[4]

Equitable cosmetics, both from a quantity and quality standpoint, are achievable through in-game means.^[4]
Nothing in the cosmetic store will be pay to win.^[5]

Nothing in our shop will ever be pay to win as we believe this practice greatly hurts the MMORPG genre.^[5]

Cash shop cosmetics will offer a diverse selection of unique looks.^[6]

I want to incentivize purchase in the cosmetic shop for sustainability of what expansions we have intended, since we are not a box cost. I want to incentivize purchase by offering limited items: limited time, limited quantity, so you have confidence that when you purchase them, they won't be offered later on in some other way.^[4] – Steven Sharif

All cosmetic store items will be non-tradeable.^[7] There will be no gifting mechanism for cosmetic items.^[8]

I don't want cosmetic items that can be purchased from the market to be transferable... because it is in a way a transfer of money for potentially something in-game.^[8] – Steven Sharif

時裝獲取方式

Some cosmetics can be obtained in-game:^[3]

成就 may unlock some cosmetics.^[3]

Not all cosmetics are obtainable through in-game means. These will be purchasable through the cosmetic store.^[3]

Cash shop cosmetics will be limited in quantity, limited in time for purchase. They will be unique, but you will also have extremely difficult to gain cosmetics in game as well as unique cosmetics that look great and better... There will be a lot of cosmetics that are achievable in the game because that is a very fun aspect of MMO play.^[9] – Steven Sharif

時裝綁定

All cosmetic store items will be non-tradeable.^[7]

時裝 are not tradeable with other players but can be reassigned to other characters (alts) within the same account.^[10]^[7]
- This is a reversal of the earlier statement that assignment of account-bound cosmetics to a character cannot be undone.^[11]

預購禮包

Seers of the Blackroot pre-order packs.^[12]

Once a small band of heretical shamans driven from their home settlement after a spate of kidnappings, the Seers of the Blackroot have since been continuing their bloody practice among the gnarled trunks and groves of the deep forests. Living in relative secrecy, they have slowly regained their strength and shall one day pour forth from the woods like ravenous rodents, seeking to sacrifice any and all to sate the dark forces they worship.^[12]

預購禮包於時裝商城有售。^[1]

時裝給希望提早支持我們的玩家購買。我認為喜歡收藏的玩家會重視限定的物品。MMO 玩家知道購買的時裝是稀有且不是每個人都能擁有的時候，才會有滿足感。另外，這些時裝也會有所變更，以不同顏色或質地應用於世界各地的 NPC，令推出時裝的同時，配合我們的開發進度。這些禮包好的地方是沒有「Pay to Win」元素，而遊戲也沒有售價，所以基本上你不需要為了在遊戲推出時獲取優勢而購買禮包。遊戲內也會有同樣甚至主觀上更漂亮的時裝供玩家獲取。^[13] – Steven Sharif

染料

染料 in Ashes of Creation may refer to:

Pigments used in crafting.^[16]
Dye cosmetics used to customize armor color.^[3]^[17]

染料用途

染料 are one-time use items that apply a cosmetic color change across all dyeable items that are equipped on a player's character (paper-doll).^[18]^[19]^[20]

Two dye channels are provided per character that together influence up to 50% of the gear that is equipped by that character.^[18]
- The first dye channel is for lower grade dyes that influence 10 to 20% of armor appearance on that character.^[18]
- The second dye channel is for higher tier dyes that influence up to 30% of armor appearance on that character.^[18]
The original design allowed individual items to be dyed with different dyes.^[19]

One of the things that we want to do- again talking about player agency- is we want to give them the ability to change the appearance of their armor sets that they're wearing; and the way we've approached the dye solution is through a channeled system. We have a two channel dye system where the first channel is a lower grade dye that it has influence over between 10 to 20 percent of your overall armor appearance; and then the second channel dye is a higher tier dye that you have to acquire; and by doing so you can influence the remaining thirty percent- up to thirty percent of that armor appearance: So up to a total of fifty percent influence that can occur across all the pieces that you wear. Now one unique approach to the way we're doing this dye system is we're not allowing individual dyes to be applied on individual items, but instead we keep a cohesion across the set by applying that dye channel to your character; and when you equip a piece with your overall character it will assume that dye channel from your paper doll. So you apply the dyes to your character and when you equip a piece of item it will take that dye and it will influence the channel over that particular piece so that it comes into alignment. And what the reason that we're doing that is there's a lot of options with regards to customization for your character appearance, whether it be through transmog, through costumes, through mixing and matching sets and pieces that you can wear; and what we want to avoid is the rainbow effect where these pieces do not look good together and it creates the clown that's walking down the street.^[18]

The Kickstarter dyes are sets of unique colors that are not obtainable by players who did not participate in Crowdfunding. These dyes are not usable as normal dyes are. Instead they are used to override the color of another dye obtained in game.^[21]

They are assigned to a character from a user's account management page.^[21]
They do not expire, so they may be used to continually override dye colors.^[21]
Once a dye has been overridden it becomes a bound dye to that character, so the colors cannot be sold for in-game benefit.^[21]
When an item is sold or transferred, color changes are reverted.^[21]

護甲外貌

Alpha-1 female plate armor 3D render.^[22]

We want to be realistic with the application of particular types of armor, such as plate armor. In this regard for the different sexes there's a fine line that has to be drawn between accentuating the form of the sex as well as making it somewhat realistic and actually applicable to the environment.^[22] – Steven Sharif

Gear is intended to be realistic in appearance.^[22]^[23]^[24]

There will not be "oversized" weapons.^[25]

Armor will not be overly sexual in appearance.^[22]^[24]
I'm more of the mind that it wouldn't really serve a purpose to have bikini plate armor, just in like reality, if you're going to have armor, it should be protective. I think from a fashion statement is enjoyable for some people, but it's a an immersive issue.^[23] – Steven Sharif
- Some armor and costumes will be more revealing than others, but there will not be nudity in the game.^[26]
There might be sliders, but there are not gonna be naked sliders.^[26] – Steven Sharif

装甲 will take on a racial appearance.^[27]^[28] 武器 will scale in size based on race.^[29]

Each race is getting its custom geo pieces, which then will share thematic components such as color palette, attachments, design filigree. Those types of things will get shared across the geo but generally you're going to see unique races with unique geo.^[30] – Steven Sharif

The appearance of crafted gear is influenced by its rarity.^[31]
- Particle effects are used to denote the importance and rarity of some weapons.^[32]

Crafters are able to influence what their crafted items look like.^[33]^[34]

時裝 can be used by all races but there may be slight variations to make them work with the body builds of each race.^[35]

Dye cosmetics can be used to change gear colors.^[3]^[36]^[17]

Helmet display can be toggled on and off.^[37]

Hair will likely be masked if helmet display is toggled on.^[38]

武器 are able to be sheathed.^[39]^[40]

附件

附件 are able to be unlocked as flair pieces to armor to create a customizable look.^[41]

There will be hundreds of attachments available ranging from a small clasp to the front plate of a breast plate.^[41]

商隊外觀

Ramstone Hauler pre-order pack cosmetic caravan skin.^[42]

Caravan skins ("Pimp my caravan") were available in the cash shop (cosmetic store).^[43]

The skin changes the appearance of an in-game mount and in-game caravan that are hooked up to each other.^[44]^[45]
The caravan and mount components of the skin are not able to be utilized separately.^[44]^[45]
Building, ship, caravan and mount cosmetics require an in-game item to be obtained first to apply the cosmetic.^[46]^[47]

You'll need your own creature and caravan hooked up to each other, and then the caravan cosmetic skin goes over all of them to make it look like what's pictured. you're not able to split out separately that caravan mount skin, hence why you'd want the separate mount skin if you wanted to ride it independently.^[44] – Sarah Flanagan
