Custom Server Changes

AAClassic is a unique server as it runs on a much older version (3.0) than retail, on top of having its own set of custom changes.

Below is a list of notable custom changes on AAClassic that make it more fun and fair than other servers.

Marketplace

The Marketplace on AAClassic does not contain "Pay to Win" items unlike other servers. Only a few quality of life additions border the line of P2W (i.e., inventory slot increases), otherwise everything else is cosmetic.

Vocation & Economy

Replanting

Replanting is a unique AAClassic feature. On some harvestables, you will find an interaction that allows you to harvest the resource and use a seed/sapling to put a new one in its place automatically. This quality of life feature is meant to make farming bundles and other resources much less manual labor and means players can spend more time in the world instead of having to spend precious time manually planting their fields.

Higher Labor & Rates

AAClassic runs on a higher labor rate of 40 labor every 5 minute (offline AND online). AAClassic also has boosted labor consumption rates AND yield rates on activities such as sports fishing and commerce. This allows you to burn your labor and make money faster, reducing the amount of grind required.

Events

Mistmerrow

Mistmerrow has an added kill quest to encourage PvP at the event that provides additional rewards.

Mistmerrow has been shortened from a duration of 30 minutes down to 20 minutes.

Crystalline Bloodbath

The Crystalline Bloodbath is a completely custom event that currently takes place every Friday that calls all who are interested to PvP in Diamond Shores, a common occurrence back in the old days of ArcheAge. Completing the event will provide you with Acension Crystals as a reward.

Gearing

Crafted Seals

Similar to 3.5, AAClassic has items called "Mana Seals" which can be crafted with the reforging proficiency. They require varying mana wisp costs and allow a player to take any Epherium+ gear piece and make it a Sealed item again. This allows attempting to get the desired outcome, whether it be an upgradeable piece or a specific stat roll, but is not guaranteed.

Honor Economy

On AAClassic, most honor items have become tradeable. This allows for example to acquire honor gems without needing to get honor yourself. This also allows making gold by farming honor.

Obsidian Materials Tradability

In an effort to promote a free market, AAClassic has set all obsidian materials as unbound. This allows players to farm obsidian materials as an extra revenue source.

Ships

Pufferfish Ship

The Pufferfish Ship (sometimes called 'Puffership') is a small artillery warship equipped with a giant cannon pointing forwards. It has an elevated move speed when heading North or South. It's driving style is quite different from other boats and will require shorter impulses when turning, at the risk of flipping over.

Luxury Liner

This ship has been announced but is not yet available ingame.

Misc Additions

Location of the Casino

Mirage Casino

The Mirage Isle casino is located immediately behind the building where you will spawn in Mirage Isle.

Previously, the Mirage Isle casino was disabled in retail versions of the game due to EU gambling laws.

Now enabled, you can purchase Bugira Coins from the merchant in the centre of the casino. Using these coins, you're free to interact with either of the 3 types of slot machines available for a chance to win up to 150x your bet.

The three types of slot machines have three separate prices, the base tier costing 1x Bugira coin per spin, the second costing 5x Bugira coins per spin, and the final costing 10x Bugira coins per spin.

An achievement set has been enabled with this, with the final reward being the title "Gambling Addict".
