Item deconstruction

Players gain craftable items and recipes from deconstructing (salvaging, dismantling, disenchanting) completed items.

There's salvaging where you can deconstruct an item to get components only capable of retrieving from salvaging an item that can be used in crafting other types of items. – Steven Sharif

• Specific and necessary crafting materials for higher tier items can only be obtained through the deconstruction of lower-tier items. This is designed to keep lower tier crafted gear relevant through progression and across expansions.

Specific crafting components yielded by gear deconstruction, and some of these components can be only be obtained from gear of certain enchantment levels and type of equipment. These components are needed for certain recipes for gear and other ancillary crafting professions. But the itemization team is still ironing out some of these flows. – Steven Sharif

• Item deconstruction will not be a meaningful way of circumventing restrictions on transit of resources and materials.

Gastos de itens

Gastos de itens são importantes para uma economia saudável, por isso tudo que pode ser [[Crafting|fabricado] também pode ser destruído. Haverão três tipos de gastos de itens em Ashes of Creation:

1. Durabilidade de itens (desgaste de item). Um item com zero durabilidade será desequipado, aumentando o seu custo de reparo.
2. Super-encantar tem o risco inerente de destruir aquele item.
3. Os jogadores recebem items de fabricação e fórmulas ao desconstruir um item completo.
4. Uma porção dos rescursos e materiais são perdidos quando caravanas ou bases são destruídas.

Um aspecto importante de uma economia saudável é ter alguns gastos de itens disponíveis... Existem três tipos de gastos: Você pode ganhar itens de fabricação ao desconstruir itens completos, há o desgaste de itens...e se você quiser super-encantar um item, existe o risco de que ele seja destruído. É imporante para uma economia que passe por esses tipos de ênfase no que pode ser fabricado mas também destruído..

Item durability

The decay system is not going to be some worthless "Oh I'm just going to throw some gold into this and it's a simple gold sink". It's actually going to require some base materials in order to repair decayed items; and decay occurs from death and also the destruction and disable system. For the weapons over the over-enchanting will require those materials as well. So creating that dependency I think is healthy for the crafting economy. – Steven Sharif

There is item durability (item decay) in Ashes of Creation.

• Item durability loss occurs on death.
  • Gear stored in a player's inventory (that is not equipped) does not lose durability when that player dies.

• Materials are required in order to restore the performance of decayed items.

• Item decay does not destroy items, but it acts as an materials sink.
  • Zero percent durability will unequip an item, significantly increasing its repair costs.

If you allow it to get to certain stages, or to get to a destructed stage then it requires a lot of material components in order to return back to its former glory. – Steven Sharif

• Over enchanting an item comes with the risk of durability loss if a safety margin is exceeded.

There is durability in the game... It's not going to be a trivial durability. There is a potential to destroy gear (weapons and armor), but there is also an ability to reforge that destroyed gear using a portion of the materials necessary as well as finding an item creator who can reforge it. – Steven Sharif

Caravan destruction

Caravan destruction in Alpha-2.

This caravan was loaded with a combination of, it looks like commodity crates and material crates. – John Collins

If a caravan is destroyed or it despawns it becomes a wreckage that contains a portion of the cargo it was transporting. The remainder of the caravan's goods are sunk (lost) when the caravan is destroyed.

When a caravan gets destroyed it creates a wreckage. That wreckage will have a number of the supplies that the caravan was carrying; and when stolen by attackers those supplies become essentially stolen glint, or corrupted glint, and stolen resources that the caravan was hauling. If they are commodities they can maintain their commodity type, and players will have to summon a caravan from a nearby node that would be empty in order to haul those crates back. You can also break into the crates or the cargo itself instead of hauling the cargo as a completed shipment. Doing so reduces the number of total resources that you can gather from the crate. So a portion of it is sunk to the system; and then a portion of it gets sunk further if you choose to break open the crates versus attempting to haul them back. – Steven Sharif

• Commodities crates are marked with a green symbol. Materials crates are marked with a black symbol.

• Anyone may loot a caravan's wreckage.

• Unsealing crates (by breaking open sealed crates) yields less value than transporting the sealed crates for unloading. This is in addition to the value already lost when the caravan was destroyed.

• Caravan components are destroyed if the caravan is destroyed. Previously it was stated that components may drop when a caravan is destroyed.

Q: What is the reason for requiring the destruction of a caravan by the attackers as opposed to the attackers gaining possession of the caravan?

A: With caravans we really want to emphasize this idea of not necessarily stealing the vehicle, but being forced to achieve victory through destruction; and when you do, you then have the logistical issue of how you're going to transport those goods on your own rather than servicing the transport of that by just hijacking. – Steven Sharif

• In an earlier design iteration, prior to the introduction of cargo crates, it was proposed that destroyed caravans dropped certificates for heavy goods that were redeemable at the origin node for a portion of the goods.

• There is no limit to the number of times caravans can be commandeered or the number of times caravans get destroyed and replaced.
