They added a WOODCUTTING skill to World of Warcraft! (all you need to know) | Project Ascension

[@jonhodgson3877]

I love the addition of woodcutting. I’m actually super happy with ascension I’ve only been playing for a week but it’s so fun.

[@tiii4017]

So much more fun than normal wow with classes too 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@magmand]

It's a pretty good server but they are kinda milking you to buy the same stuff over and over with the seasons. If you ask me the server was best when it was called awakening years ago

[@syntaxoid]

@@magmand yeah.. idk why people play seasonal other than "new stuff". the good parts of the new stuff are put on the Area 52 realm afterward anyways. to reject retail/classic and then go spend hundreds of dollars every season on a private server is just corny. plus, while they don't sell gold directly, you can sell almost anything on the $ shop in the auction house, so practically the same thing. it's a great server, incredibly active and passionate devs, but the shop side of things will be what gives the server a bad name

[@fanndisgoldbraid3183]

Bows, arrows, staves, wooden shields, furniture for housing (many options here), window frames, jobs around the world (dock repair, building repair, etc), clocks, Wagons and parts. Just for starters. I like it. Long overdue.

[@adiscerningdunmer9311]

Makes sense they'd use the icons for wood from Guild Wars 2. Digging the idea of player housing.

[@Yoshmaan]

Well the game industry is all about "reuse existing concepts" nowadays... so no surprise there.

[@Ranik-Jason]

Can you please explain how to setup the UI like you have it? Which Addons / how to configure?

[@vagabondwastrel2361]

I want them to add a "wood pyre" to the woodcrafter. It would be an aoe buff that depends on the type/combination of wood and how much wood you chuck on the pile. This would work great if they had some sort of faction league to take over zones for ticks of currency.

[@DigitalConceptz]

Wow 😮 player housing that’s awesome I love ascension!! ❤I really like the UI I know this a bit off topic but. What is this ui called I want it in my game!

[@ahetzel9054]

I always thought it would be cool if they made a pacifist challenge where you can have more professions and that becomes your main way of leveling, but killing anything would actually stop the achievement because then you're not a pacifist.

[@alexstizzlestorff7126]

Crafter challenge? No exp from kills, only crafting and harvesting

[@AbrahanPlayer]

And maybe Quests that not include killing.

[@HhHhhh-lr6ir]

I believe ascension added that as a trial! Only profession XP, like that one panda monk lol

[@97McLuvin]

That's literally a thing on ascension right now lol

[@5H4D3]

Wouldn't really work with skinning, unless it didn't count beasts towards the fail condition.

[@maxpain8515]

why isnt quest at the board

[@krismeyer2319]

The team behind this are really gods

[@michaelpochon6690]

I've already got stacks of all of em in my bank just waiting for the upgrades. It is just very relaxing to do without any stress or anything

[@SilverTopMom]

I think it's so cool, and I'm really looking forward to what they are wanting to do in the future! So cool. I'm loving the player housing idea too.

[@TranscendedPhoenix]

Something I discovered today is that woodcutting does not take a profession slot, just like first aid or cooking, so EVERYONE can get in on the tree chopping fun.

[@god6384]

I HAVE WANTED THIS SINCE FOREVERRRRR!!!! Warlords of Draenor gave me small hope for this proffesion but alas it was just a garrison feature

[@Trueillusionoflife]

Ma man! I had not much time to play, after the new update, was kinda funny to see thouse trees ar first but i immideatly mentioned how much effort they put in their project! Thats great you keep us updates whats going on around. Man i wish this happened but i was a kid like back in the days, so i could play 18/7 this version of wow)

[@Medieval3d3d]

The housing theme is really cool, just see The Elder Scrolls Online stuff, is a whole new world of possibilities, also adds so much immersion

[@choryllis6646]

I nearly choked on my drink when I saw the icons for woodcutting. All the logs and plank icons are ripped wholesale from Guild Wars 2 lol. Not mad about it, just through it was funny

[@dugii12345]

we know, finally find elder wood...its in winterspring! Mysteri is solved! Playing as tank as always, i am at 62ilvl, and allrdy have almost 60% block...thats sick if u ask me

[@benvictim]

I think it would be nice to edit existing professions (like enchanting's wand crafting) to use wood from fletching.

[@sxlg_32]

Thank you for this, haven't checked out new league but good to see they're still trying to do some new stuff.

[@Jeffwyn]

Ascension is where it's at! Zikliv-Archimonde

[@Medieval3d3d]

Nice video thanks. do you know how to create custom Trials with Trial Architect or was that just for the seasonal realm?. I'v seen you can create them but must add an already created trial. It is possible to create a custom trial?

[@zbengman]

By the looks of it, they are heading to a Sword Art Online concept of skills, professions, player housing. All they are missing now are hidden skills unlocked by doing specific actions. If the Ascension team keeps going towards the open world interactions, they will achieve what the initial wow fantasy was supposed to look like.

[@MetaCrossers]

Quick question how do I use some of the things i purchased on the other realms like the book and other items? Also can you make a tank video showing the best tank to use

[@soulsmith4787]

Blizzard actually had woodcutting in the Arathi warfront from BFA, but they haven't followed up on it. I could see them adding it to supply resources to a furniture/house building profession and to add wood materials to other profession's recipes.

[@HighQualityLeftover]

TIPP FOR YOUR ELVUI MCDOUBLES: (how to: minimap addon buttons) /ec and go to "Enhanced" - there you can find "Minimap". What you are looking for is the "Minimap Button Grabber" and enable it. These stray icons drove me insane, so i had to fix it or disable the entire interface again. Guess i won :D

[@MrBlackstaz]

What would be great, ascension going in the same route as new world and allowing people to take all the professions on one character. This could have limitations, like the number of equipped unique crafter items (like the alchemist trinket), maybe 2 maximum ?). Or maybe allowing to take all gathering professions and only 2 crafting professions.

[@VolrinSeth]

Is there any point to woodcutting right now though, besides flat xp?

[@bpurdx]

excellent video! thank you for sharing!

[@tech20100]

hello bro. I learn bro but i cannot cut tree and i also buy the axe. do i miss something? like i need to be sub to them to use this profession?

[@dreamk33per56]

Did they add the elder wood ?

[@jaivse5085]

Carpenter... sounds a good Profession name for all the stuff that is made out of wood

[@KM-fm9ms]

Vanilla+ with player housing, wow I'm impressed.

[@KeeRonMaiden]

wood cutting could be used to make some shields staves bows and arrows fishing rods maybe

[@FriedrichVSS]

As far as player housing is concerned, I like the way New World does it.

[@Benbrytaren]

I wanna see this series! Let's do it! // Majj

[@Freeflow32]

What they should do is have an instanced zone for player housing that utilizes the empty structures within the capital cities and require gold expenditures to rent out similar to what they do in New world.

[@paradigm3926]

I am enjoying this league so far, the pacing is MUCH better IMO. Woodcutting seems pretty strong, there are SO many trees around the world. What I'm really hoping for this league is more world PvP McDoubles action! - Poultice

[@VariantNYC]

i just want to say thank you for continuing to make videos about ascension, the population is really really good and im sure you are partly to blame 🎉

[@marcosiv5816]

Woodcutting was indeed suggested in the TurtleWow forums.

[@TheKajzzeR]

Hey, i need a race to showcase woodcutting... I KNOW, NIGHT ELVES!

[@williamsonoftom7257]

How do I unlock all armor when I hit 'N'?

[@prorookie1013]

Truly the Roleplaying of all time

[@bigsoupes]

Does it cap at 300 or 375?

[@m.a.dmatt6689]

I honestly think Ascension has the whole 'Free-ability-class' thing down to a T. If they can focus more on open world and world changes as much as they have with classes, it will be crazy

[@Deadlychuck84]

If they're creating custom relics and idols for the profession, there's really no reason for them to be garbage, other than balancing it with the normal profession crafted gear. Compared to traditional ones, there's no reason to limit it to the shaman, druid, and pally mechanics either. No reason they couldn't make a warrior idol or a mage relic.

[@cpayne3]

McD, why were you in Goldshire doing ERP yesterday? xD

[@joeg8349]

That orchard with the worgans in Duskwood has been made to have all cuttable trees, such a nice touch. Ign: Buran

[@xXasgeneXx]

Player housing would be really cool, also being able to craft idols or relics that are potentially better than what we have right now

[@ahetzel9054]

I think it would be really cool to be able to craft staffs, wands, bows and arrows. Enchanting makes like 2 wands so it would be cool for more wands as well as many other things

[@pnpem]

@@ahetzel9054 dutch said that this is their objective too, crafting of bow, crossbow, arrows, shields, staves, idols and relics as a woodworking profession.

[@JohnSmith-pn2ts]

I feel like the houses need to have a well rested buff for when you log out/hang out in you player house

[@Xero1of1]

... I had no idea there was a callboard turn-in for wood... lol. I've been vendoring my stacks, lol

[@scrappylikemetal]

The log icons are from Guild Wars 2, so I assume they're gonna add Artificer and Huntsman professions.

[@jammiefox2012]

So we vendering all the planks?

[@BlazeOfGlory2003]

I'm really hyped for Fletching, imagine just making your own bows and custom arrows doing all kinds of stuff. Ooh yea boy. Ign: Propaganta

[@penzalo4119]

Bruh I just had a crazy idea, imagine a custom wow server where the factions neutral to both horde and alliance join either one in like, the next updates of the server right, depending on which faction has more rep with it

[@MrKenedian]

Can't wait for Ascension to become Runescape. Lovely

[@samename1st]

Edit: My original comment had fletching as a subset of carving, more I thought on this anyone that thinks you can just carve a bow or arrows does not know anything about archery, I know very little. I posted this same thing in the Ascension Forum. Fletching is too narrow scope for a profession. The profession should be woodworking with specializations of carving and carpentry: carving is more of the artistic products of woodworking and carpentry is more of the technical products of woodworking. Carving could have figurines/totems much like jewel crafting, or some engineering items. Carving could have a little bit of the old enchanting, pre-vellum, in a trade window style, and be limited to the "of ..." / suffix items stats, like it is carving a bear into the item for the "of the Bear" stats. To balance, it would remove any other stat boosts (but leave "chance" and "equip" bonuses), and only be for items with wood, clearly. A similar thing could be added to inscription for non-wood items, for balance. "Unpowered" wands could also be part of carving, and require an enchanter to power them so they can be used. Fletching could be a specialization under carpentry, much like Weaponsmith: mace. Shields would be another specialty of carpentry. Non-combat items could be another carpentry thing, like a canoe if it can be implemented. Chairs and cots could also be a carpentry product that could grant a buff similar to "well fed" being "well rested" (increase to agility and intelligence?) and could remove disease and poison. Have stains or varnish be similar to engineering polishes (more advanced as a carpentry specialization). Screws and nails would be part of some woodworking much like engineering bolts. Marionette puppets could even be similar to engineering mechanical pets, they should require enchanting dust/essences/shards to craft so to animate, and be more debuff/fear based aids than damage. For player housing, carving would be more decorative and carpentry would be furniture. The "Rebirth" Seeds should be a drop from Woodcutting. Symbols and runes could also be a possible product of carving, and possibly items that do the same kind of spells that require woodcutting: carving to use. Maybe they could be unreliable much like the engineering items that mimic spells, or teleport and portals could be random.

[@sehvendusk6612]

Imagine playing a game where you make a level 1, chop wood, turn in greenwood planks at a board that provides high end gear "unique".

[@vagabondwastrel2361]

There is a sawmill in the upper trade quarter of UC.

[@biggrimeygaming2216]

There’s a sawmill at sentinel hill in Westfall

[@ulfhedinn3297]

I would love if Ascension added Garrisons, but made them guild base

[@confreeknor1]

Love ur ascention content -zuggmugg

[@krisztiannkiss]

Nice feelgood video.

[@bigsoupes]

Blizzard is NEVER getting another penny from me again. Long live ascension! Just found out about it a month ago and this is my first private server I've ever done.

[@dereklandry6199]

i should be leveling woodcutting because theres are always callboard caches avail with that professions... and player owned housing could be a good idea if they implement it right //// Chaossong

[@tacticalwarriorviking5089]

When this was an original idea, couldn't woodworking also make a small rowboat for fishing? Also, will this profession give an Agility bonus like mining gets a stamina bonus?

[@sunderwire]

You reminded me of the nightmare that garrisons were in wod. Man I hated that mobile game table Lol

[@Cravos060290]

I've never seen something as controversial as a Nightelf chopping trees in Teldrassil Lmao.

[@god6384]

maybe woodcutting can just be acarpentry proffesion combining the gathering and making of stuff

[@MrBillyrayjimbob]

Alliance, fly to Sentinel Hill for mill. Easier to get to then the other mill.

[@Xepent]

How about we do a crafted item only 40 man hardcore molten core challenge

[@Donapate]

Hi i would suggest there change the icons for the wood it is from Guild wars 2 and maybe there will be some consequences

[@Gab1Bv]

I CAN FINALLY GIVE SOMEONE MY WOOD WITHOUT GETTING BANNED! :D

[@Lordveine]

Holy shit this seem to suck, i will have to change proffession

[@kpb415]

Seems like it’s turning into RuneScape at this point

[@sordmasta6646]

out of all the races..... you use a nightelf to chop down the trees. savage. nightelves should just place a wisp that circles the tree a few times, to harvest the wood. You know, like in Warcraft.

[@TJWilkerson-gs4mh]

I just wish I could get the launcher to install 😢

[@Mich43lab]

This is the kind of thing that makes me want to reinstall wow. This is the kind of content I want; woodcutting, fletching and housing

[@cpayne3]

I hope they let us build in open world and add a thing where players can destroy the houses and structures you make

[@xalberrious]

Wallcraft is incredible. It has the best stuff and entering beta next year I think

[@reflexe7845]

You should consider streaming m8 😊 Reflexe

[@Mcdoubles]

why?

[@reflexe7845]

Cuz it would be fun and since i watched all of them it looks like i was right.😅 (and you are an incredible entertainer. I found ascension b4 your videos and now i kinda watch you more than i play the game)😂

[@Zitan911]

Cool....my trees do not disappear...

[@DirtEChip]

Shows the horde starter sawmill, but doesn't show the alliance location of the sawmill because "Everybody knows where that's at"...

[@joelf1]

I actually worked on a complete proposal for wood cutting and wood working for Turtle WoW (where it fits very well with the slower playstyle) but wanted to work it out in really great detail with creative and fitting names for every tree and wood (trees are mostly specific to zones but similar lvl trees giving the same wood) but never fully finished and posted it because I got to buys irl unfortunately. But nice to see that a sever finally does it since it just makes sense. Had similar ideas with bows, crossbows, arrows, idols, totems, staves etc. Also, I'm curious how they handled trees in the barrens, searing gorge, burning steppes etc? I planned to have dry (barrens) and burned (SG, BS) logs laying around as you see in these zones anyway which could be collected from the ground and maybe occasionally a dried up tree.

[@ahemschmeyer]

It’s nice for easy exp

[@josceola8979]

I loved Garrisons and I'm not sorry lol

[@kryogengaming3772]

“My Woodcutting Level is 99.”

[@gengar618]

Oh sick

[@Mcdoubles]

Yes

[@xalberrious]

Farming and husbandry skill when?

[@charlie8458]

Wait...isnt wood cutting already in Wow classic ? It seems so basic that i never realized it had never been implemented 😂

[@kesun3148]

interesting. sad to see that it looks like they just ripped all of guild wars 2 names and icons for the wood logs and planks but still interesting to see another game do this system

[@Mcdoubles]

Pretty much normal for custom private servers to do this type of thing. But I also wish we could just write new names for things and commission icons off fiverr for 5 or 10 bucks lol

[@minimystic1]

1-60 woodcutting only speedrun???

[@JoonJuby]

At this point McDoubles is a pseudo social media marketer for ascension lol

[@Mcdoubles]

xd

[@juanmarin1218]

Sería mejor si explicarán en español

[@Essishuffle]

The wood icons ware from guild wars 2 XD

[@karlharvey601]

Really good exp but I think they will nerf it,people are getting lvl 60 in 10 mins its already rediculous.

[@DabDat91]

All you need to know is that it's completely worthless

[@unholyangel4171]

garrisons sucked cause it wasnt a player housing they turn garrisons into a have to go to it to do the cocntent for stuff and made you work on it for progression

[@thomaskunz3089]

Guess what, you could do that in WOD as well.

[@gregrussell1787]

Nightmare, hardcore, solo... cuts trees.

[@ninetalesxyo8842]

Lame....
