Intrepid Studios has ramped up Node Siege testing in Ashes of Creation Alpha Two, preparing for larger-scale battles in the upcoming test weekends. This means that players should expect more siege opportunities as testing continues.
What Are Node Sieges?
Node Sieges are PvP-based events where defenders must protect their node from attacking forces. These large-scale battles include various strategic mechanics that will test teamwork, coordination, and combat skills.
Latest Patch Before Large-Scale Testing
In preparation for the next phase of Node Siege testing, the developers have deployed an update that is supposed to help refine siege mechanics and improve stability. This update ensures that players will have a more polished experience when defending their node.
If you participated in the recent Node Siege test, do not forget to provide feedback on the official forums to help developers balance the experience.
