    So yeah, as the title suggests, i wanted to create this for a while as there's a ton of questions asked by returning players, regarding all aspects of the game. So I'm gonna cover economics, class balance and build options here, as well as some other stuff.

    ​

    So let's get started.

    ​

    Gear:

    Over the last year this aspect of the game has chaged a lot. Introduction of Hiram Gear turned the task of catching up with top-tier players from impossible to now only boring and time-consuming. Let's have a quick rundown of Hiram Gear:

    • Drops from certain mobs on Auroria
    • Has 4 Grades, each allowing for higher enhancment levels to be achieved.
    • To Level the gear you need Infusions (They also drop from mobs and are Quest Rewards in Eastern and Western Hiram Mountains.
    • Upon reaching Celestial (For Tier 1) / Divine (For Tier 2) / Epic (For Tier 3) Enhancment rank you can Upgrade it into the next tier (albeit loosing a little bit of stats)
    • To do so you need Scrolls: 10 (For Tier 1) / 25 (For Tier 2) / 50 (For Tier 3). Please, note that sucess is not guaranteed, and you might have to try it for a few times.
    • Scrolls are also given as quest rewards: 5+5+10 for Tier 1 (Sungold Fields + Exceloch + Desolations) / 7+7+7 For Tier 2 (Western Hiram Mountains) / 5+5+2+3 For Tier 3 (Western Hiram Mountains)
    • You can Roll Stats just like you do it in Costumes or Erenor Gear.
    • All Hiram Gear has 3 Stats. (1 Basic + 2 Additional)
    • For example you can roll Intelligence, HP and Resilence in your Heavy Hiram Chestplate if you want to play Mage in heavy set.
    • Generally, Rolling for your class-specific base stat, Resilence and set-type specific DMG Resistance is the way to go. (So it goes like this - Robe rolls for Mele Resist, Leather rolls Everuthing in Balance and Heavy rolls for Mage Resist)

    ​

    Class-specific builds:

    Here's somewhat of a list:

    ​

    Mele:

    • Leather Set, Dual Wielding, Roll for Stength. Pretty solid build, compensates for lacks of raw ATK with extra Crit DMG and GKD.
    • Leather Set, 2-Handed, Roll for Strength. More of a glass-canon and a bit less reliable build in my oppinion, but allows to chop through Cloth like it's not even there.
    • Leather Set, Shielded, Roll for Strength. A bit more specific and tanky build, suits well for Blighters and such, but requires both MDef and PDef shields.
    • Heavy Set, Shielded, Roll for Strength. Kinda weird build, as you sacrifice all damage for 20K PDef.
    • Heavy Set, 2-Handed or Dual Wielding, Roll for Strenght. This build has a chance to live in certain conditions, but i personaly would prefer leather to plate in current pathc.

    ​

    Archers:

    • Leather Set, Dual Wielding, Roll for Agilty. Nothing more to say here.

    ​

    Mages:

    • Leather Set, Dual Wielding or 2-Handed, Roll for Intelligence.

    Light sets are now rendered obsolete, due to leather sets giving more DMG output and more Physical Def. without sacrificing your off-hand slot for Shield. But still, keep in mind, that 2-handed builds are always a glass-canon sort of thing.

    • Heavy Set, Shielded, Roll for Intelligence.

    This build offers a bit more survivability, whilst loosing damage. Suits more for Revenant-style builds.

    ​

    Healers:

    • Heavy Set, MDef Shield / Dual Wielding (with T7 Obsidian off-had staff). Roll for Spirrit. A good option for Frontline / Non-Casting healers (Hierophant / Cleric / Confessor).
    • Library Dungeon Set, Shielded or Dual Wielding (with T7 Obsidian off-had staff). Albeit pricy, provides perfect bonuses for Casting Healers. But keep in mind, your survivability is pretty crap in this set unless you grade it into Mythic / Eternal.

    ​

    Tanks (only Skullknights in Fact, lol):

    • Heavy Set,MDef Shield, roll for Stamina.

    ​

    Gliders:

    Mele:

    • Red Dragon (cheap and easy to get craft, allows to catch fleing foe or engage from far and high.)
    • Jet Pack (Same as red dragon, but with wings mechanichs.)
    • Crystalic Wings (This ones won't knockdown your foe, but will make them bleed and will slow them down, as well as tax on their GCD)

    ​

    Archers:

    • Umbrella (Allows to land onto desired location in 40m radius and Pushes All Enemies in certain radius Away, good tool for taking advantageous positions)
    • Crystalic Wings (Same reason as above)

    ​

    Mages:

    • Red Dragon / Jetpack (for catching your fleing oponents or initiating from far away)
    • Thunderwing Titan Wings. Expensive and Rare, but immensely usefull in MPVP

    ​

    Tanks:

    • Red Dragon / Jetpack / Crystalic Wings / Thunderwing Titan Wings (Basicaly anything with ability to land onto a predetermined position or target from a significant distance)

    ​

    Heallers and Universal Gliders:

    • Ezi (Invul with 1 click of a button)
    • Blue Phoenix (2 Speed Boosts + Blink put this guy on par with kraken glider in terms of speed)
    • Kraken / Dragon Gliders (Expensive AF, but are immune to turbulence and posess unmatched speed)
    • Ravenspire Wings (That imbalanced instant Invul. Boi)
    • [Forgot the name of the Glider, Help] (Has a 25m blink bakwards with 10 Sec. CD, Rare and Pricy, but still worth it)

    ​

    Auction House Crash

    Posted: 19 Jul 2019 12:00 PM PDT

    Hey, so I've been looking around for an answer for a bit now, and I see that there's not really any recent updates on this crash since like march 2018, but whenever I type into the auction house, I crash to desktop. The last fix I've found is to delete the folder that gets created in the C drive but it still crashes. Anyone know any new fixes for this crash? I've done both dx11 and dx9

    Came back to ArcheAge after 3 years!

    Posted: 18 Jul 2019 08:12 PM PDT

    I am currently downloading the game. I used to play on EU, checked through the site and it shows me my character is now on the server "Taris". is this a merged server? how is the population there? Is it good for me to stay there? my character was around level 30 or so (it was a Blighter!). or should I start a new character on a new server?

    What are things I need to know? any recommendations will be appreciated!

    Btw, are there any codes for free stuff that I can get? checked on the glyph site and there are 2 free "server evolution giftpack". what do they bring? should I take them both?

    ​

    Thanks in advance! sorry for all the questions! Really wanna get back into the game the best I can! And if anyone wanna accompany me in my travels and guide me through the game, he/she will be more then welcome!
