Devora Wilde is the voice actress of Lae’zel and is streaming for the first time, playing Baldur’s Gate 3. She even practiced for several hours before starting the stream on Twitch. However, fans notice that she hasn’t played the title often so far and find it adorable.
How is Devora Wilde doing? Even during character creation, the voice actress has some problems (via twitch.tv). For example, she can’t figure out how to change the camera angle or how to delete the name that is mistakenly in the name field.
Always by her side is her acquaintance Grace, who guides her through the game and helps her whenever she encounters a problem.
The big shock comes when Wilde has to design her guardian. She asks if she seriously has to go through the entire process again. Desperate, she presses the “Randomise” button and settles for the choice.
No wonder Wilde is overwhelmed. After all, Baldur’s Gate 3 offers numerous content, as the following video shows:

What is the voice actress celebrated for? Devora Wilde is very excited when she meets herself in the game. After adding Lae’zel to the party, the character follows her around. Wilde seems so pleased as if a small dog is running after her.
This moment can be seen in a post on Reddit:

At times, she is also unsure how the mission continues and where to go next. Her acquaintance then explains to her where the minimap is and how she can see where to go next.
At times, she doesn’t even know which the R2 button is and how to open the inventory. Fans celebrate her reaction when she excitedly finds the inventory for the first time.
By the way, this is not Wilde’s first Twitch appearance. She has already streamed Dungeons & Dragons on Twitch with the cast and gained some experience in the role-playing area. Only the controls on PlayStation are still a challenge for her.
The voice actress of Shadowheart is also drawing attention. She offers her voice so fans can send messages to acquaintances. A man confessed, for example, that he cheated on his wife with Shadowheart:
ELoTRiX was particularly known for shooter gameplay at his time. He played titles like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, released in 2011, Battlefield 3, or Call of Duty: Black Ops 3. The now 31-year-old appeared energetic and loud.
In 2023, he mainly appeared as a variety streamer, indulging in many different games and showcasing games like Elden Ring, Lies of P, Diablo 4, and League of Legends. He is also frequently active in the “Just Chatting” category (via Sullygnome).

The new CoD MW3 presents itself with shooter action in the new multiplayer trailer
What does ELoTRiX say about CoD MW3? ELoTRiX apparently has no desire to spend money on the upcoming shooter. He expresses himself clearly negatively and makes it clear that he is not satisfied with the developments of the franchise in recent years, even though he would like to play the game.
In addition, ELoTRiX explains that every player who buys CoD this year is partly responsible for the current situation:
They are not going to get 80 € out of my pockets for some nostalgia map packs. And everyone who allows themselves to be farmed by CoD again this year is also simply responsible for that nothing will ever change.
I also got a bit hyped and I actually want to play the game, but they have tortured us for so many years… I just got tired.
Overall, it can be assumed that ELoTRiX will not buy this year’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 after that statement. Whether he will stay true to his words will be seen in November.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is set to be released on November 10, 2023, for PC, PlayStation 4 and 5, as well as Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
For MW3, CoD relies entirely on the nostalgic feelings of fans and brings 16 maps from the 2009 released MW2. Additionally, the shooter will feature a story and a zombie mode. The popular movement trick “Slide-Cancel” is also expected to return.

In Destiny 2 the story of Season 22 is over. But one mystery remains: the last concealed card in the Deck of Whispers. However, players have begun searching for this mysterious artifact, which seems to be unreachable so far. We will show you what they have discovered and where you are likely to get the last card.
We have updated this article on October 10th with the last location of the “Card of Guidance”. You can find the exact location of the card in the video we have linked to in this article.
What mystery remains unsolved in Season 22: During the ongoing Season 22 in Destiny 2, guardians have collected powerful cards from the Deck of Whispers.
There are a total of 55 cards in the Deck of Whispers for Season 22.
The cards could be collected in the seasonal activities “Altars of Summoning” and “Savathun’s Pillar” as well as by completing ritual activities.
So far, the guardians have found 54 concealed cards. However, the last card remains a mystery. Therefore, we will tell you everything that has been discovered about this card so far.
What is the “Deck of Whispers” in Destiny 2 exactly?
The new mechanic was introduced in Season 22 for Destiny 2 for the first time. The “Deck of Whispers” is a collection of Arcana cards that players can collect during the Witch season. These cards are drawn randomly while playing the seasonal activities and provide players with build-enhancing passive abilities. For example, an increased chance to receive heavy ammunition or to scorch their opponents. Thus, the cards and the freely defined card deck from the players are a very effective tool to complement builds and to master the more challenging challenges in the Altars of Summoning or Savathun’s Pillar optimally.
How exciting the content of Season 22 in Destiny 2 is, after it was previously rather unspectacular:

How to find the last card in the “Deck of Whispers”
Why is the last card currently not findable? The eager collectors in Destiny 2 have searched all corners and found 54 cards. But the last card is not just well hidden. It is completely unfindable.
This is because the location of this last concealed card in Destiny 2 is still not known or available. Thus, it remains locked for all guardians at the moment.
Nevertheless, the Destiny community has not remained idle. They have unearthed all clues to the last card and made speculations that hint at the source and location of the find.
This last card No. 55 in Season 22 has not yet been discovered.
All information about the missing card in Season 22:
Finding the card will reward players with the emblem “Augury”, provided they have previously discovered all minor Arcana cards at the Table of Prophecy.
It was assumed that this emblem drops with the acquisition of the seasonal title “Haruspex”. However, this was not the case. Even after obtaining the title, 0% of players according to Light.gg possess the emblem, which supports the community theory that the last card is time-gated.
Also from the API of Destiny 2 clues to the location of the card have been obtained: It can be found in the Altars of Summoning as “A gift of navigation – Found in the arms of a statue at the foot of the waterfalls.“
Here is the exact card location:

The last card will thus be available today with the weekly reset from 7:00 PM. With the card, you can then advance to the 3rd floor of the twisted test world.
What else awaits in Season 22? With the yet undiscovered content, it also seems that the last lore entries for “Initiation Rites” and “Sister Murder” will be unlocked. Season 22 has therefore not completely exhausted its potential, it seems.
Have you already searched for the card? And what do you think, how many trials Savathun has prepared with a wicked laugh in the Imbaru engine?
This week, all players in Destiny 2 are invited to the Iron Banner and can join the honorable Lords. But that’s not all. The twisted Imbaru Engine of the Witch Queen is waiting to be explored again, perhaps to unveil one last secret.
This is happening this week: Lord Saladin really needs no introduction in Destiny 2. He is the undisputed Iron Lord, who nobly challenges the Guardians to PvP each season. In the Iron Banner, only the best wolves train to strengthen their light for the fight.
If you want to become an Iron Lord as well, you can complete the challenges in the Iron Banner on the map from October 10 to 17. The event is free for all players.
This week, the mode “Eruption” is being played. You have to get kills, build a buff, and share the energy you gain with your teammates.
But beware: If you don’t make a kill for 15 seconds, you will break out and explode deadly.
What else is there? In the PvE of Destiny 2, the story of Season 22 is actually already done. Nevertheless, the Guardians are missing something. A card from their deck is still not found. Therefore, a few players have set out to search for clues to find out where and how this card can be obtained.
In addition, activities in Destiny 2 will rotate again, giving you new challenges. We will reveal what they are in this article as always.

Xivu Arath’s battle song causes trouble for the bunkers of the Warmind. Take them back and secure the underground buildings from the Hive’s grasp.
Earn the Nightfall weapon this week: The rocket launcher “Braytech Werewolf”. You can obtain the master version of the weapon from the Grandmaster difficulty.

The two modes Control and Clash are running this week in PvP.
Endgame: Raid Challenges and Dungeon Rotation
Farmable endgame in weekly rotation: In the further course of the endgame, the legacy rotations await.
Both the rotating raid, the rotating dungeon, and the exotic rotating missions are farmable. This means you can complete the individual encounters repeatedly to obtain various items and complete your collection. Including potential exotics available in these contents.
The weekly legacy raid is “Last Wish” with the weapon exotic “1000 Voices”
Additionally, there are extra loot and the exotic bow “Hierarchy of Needs” in the dungeon “Glassway”.
In this world, everything is upside down as Savathun maliciously laughs while testing your cunning.
These are the ritual activities: Season 22 offers the Guardians new challenges and a card deck that supports them on their missions with buffs and benefits. Provided they unlock everything and assemble their deck appropriately.
Altars of Summoning: Offer sacrifices in the otherworldly prison of the Witch Queen to summon horrific enemies, defeat them, and gain their power.
There are three difficulty levels you can activate. If you activate the “Powerful”, the highest difficulty level with three swords, you will also sweat a lot.
However, upgrading your deck makes it increasingly easier.
Savathûn’s Pillar: Activate the pillar, defeat her overseers, and gain access to the Altars of Summoning.
Void Crystals have a barrier around them that protects nearby enemies. The barrier must be entered, and the crystal destroyed from the inside.
Solar Crystals burn upon picking up and must be transported to a separate part of the arena.
Arc Crystals grant the charged buff “Crystalline Charge” in melee. Inactive Arc Crystals must be awakened with a “Melee Transfer”.
Here we also reveal where you can find the last still missing hidden card:
This mission reveals more information about the CloudArk, which the Guardians are supposed to discover. Rohan therefore sends you to the reactor of the network and infrastructure of Neomuna.
Ascendant Challenge – Dreaming City
If you still need triumphs from the Dreaming City: The corruption reveals to you with a sip of “Queen’s Leaf Tincture” new accesses, so you can find them.
Petra Venj can be found in the Rheasilvia area in the Dreaming City. In the entire zone, it is the 3rd curse week. To be mastered is the 4th Ascendant Challenge.
All sources for top loot in Season 22 of Destiny 2
This Witch Queen has died many deaths in Destiny 2 and is still cheeky.
More power level comes automatically: The power level is also capped in Season 22, which means that the hard power level cap in Destiny 2 remains at 1,810. This way, no player is forced to perform at their best every week, but levels up automatically at all activities with the artifact level.
There are still hard challenges, even without an increase in power levels. For example, in Grandmaster raids, Nightfall strikes, Grandmaster lost sectors, or the Trials of Osiris. Here, a high artifact level is advantageous and necessary.
If you are not yet at the hard cap of 1,810, we have listed here the best sources for top loot.
This top loot brings your power level up to 1,810:

CS2 also brought some issues that fans are bothered by, which resulted in the title receiving poor ratings on Steam – Valve’s own platform. Among them is a bug that affected the hitboxes of characters while crouching.
Start video
Counter-Strike 2: Valve once again impresses with the launch trailer
How do the ratings for CS2 look? Since Counter-Strike 2 uses the same Steam store page as CS:GO did before, the ratings of the tactical shooter initially appear better than they actually are – a strong 88% of all 7.6 million (!) reviews are positive.
However, if you look only at the reviews submitted since September 28, the day after the CS2 release, the sentiment becomes much worse. Of 99,502 reviews, only 55% are positive, meaning 45% of all players rate CS2 negatively (as of October 10, 6:00 PM, via Steam).
This makes CS2 one of the lowest-rated games from Valve. Only a card game called “Artifact” fares worse. While “Artifact Classic” has a 46.79% positive rating, “Artifact Foundry” sits at 54.89% (via SteamDB).
What do players say in their reviews? Players miss CS:GO and the depth that the tactical shooter achieved over the years and lost with the switch to CS2. There is also criticism regarding the servers, matchmaking, and the ongoing cheating problem.
‘Valve just released an unfinished game to completely erase CS:GO. Sorry, but why Valve? (via Steam)’
‘Cool that you pulled a new engine with new graphics and effects from the basement and stuck it on the game, but did you completely throw out matchmaking and anti-cheat, or what is now the premise (via Steam)?’
‘The CS2 update is simply unfinished. It looks nice, but it’s about 10% of what CS:GO once was. Maybe you’ll come back in a year or so (via Steam).’
‘No more balancing, no more community maps for training, all spray patterns have changed. No more fun with this crap (via Steam).’
‘The CS2 release feels a bit rushed, to be honest. The lack of content in CS2 is noticeable. […] CSGO was a great game and I hope that CS2 becomes one very soon as well (via Steam).’
Not only normal players are currently unimpressed with CS2. Even s1mple, one of the most successful CS players of all time, criticizes the tactical shooter:
XDefiant is set to become the major CoD competitor from Ubisoft, yet the shooter hope has postponed the release once again.
What kind of game is it?
XDefiant is an upcoming arena shooter from Ubisoft, in which you can play factions from various Ubisoft titles – including, for example, the Freedom Fighters from Far Cry 6 or the Cleaners from The Division.
In XDefiant, you compete against other players in various PvP modes such as Domination and Payload.
Gameplay-wise, XDefiant features intuitive weapon handling with low recoil as well as comparatively fast movement. Additionally, you can modify your weapons with attachments.
XDefiant is set to be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
This is what we know about the postponement: Ubisoft has postponed the release of XDefiant to October 9. However, no new release date has been mentioned (via Twitter).
In a statement from September 11, 2023, it was said that the release was planned for mid to late September or early to mid-October – depending on whether some final fixes are needed. On September 29, a final public test followed.
No official release date was given at that time either.
Why is there still hope? A few days before the postponement was announced, a leak emerged that spoke of a release on October 28, 2023. According to the leaker, a launch event is planned for that day (via Twitter).
The question now is whether October 28 was established as the release date before or after the public announcement of the postponement.
Since the release in the statement from September 11 was intended for early to mid-October, a release on October 28 would already be a postponement – there is hope that the leak is still current and XDefiant will be released in October. However, you shouldn’t rely on it.
Why was the release postponed? As Mark Rubin, Executive Producer at Ubisoft and the head of XDefiant, stated in a statement on Twitter, the postponement is necessary to address several issues identified during the public test on September 28.
One issue, for example, was found with the movement, specifically with sliding. Players reportedly felt that the movement felt weird and suspected a nerf for the slide. However, that was not the case, and the team investigated and found a bug.
With the postponement, they aim to ensure that all players have a great time playing XDefiant and to resolve the issues that have arisen.
If you’re unsure which multiplayer shooters you should play until the XDefiant release, we have compiled a list of the 14 best for you:
Sony has shown the first images of its new PS5. The new version will not only be significantly slimmer but can also have a drive built into it. You can read all the details about the new model directly at MeinMMO.
What was shown? The Christmas season is approaching, and Sony has introduced a new PS5 model. The new PS5 will be smaller, slimmer, and offers additional new features:
On one hand, you can plug a Blu-ray drive into the PS5.
On the other hand, there is a 1 TB SSD included for more storage space.
The new PS5 models are expected to be available in North America starting November 2023. The same goes for the plug-in drive.
You can jump directly to the important information in the article through the following links:
What happens after the release?The currently known PS5 models will disappear from the market as soon as they are sold out. The new models will replace the old devices.
Does the new PS5 Slim have more performance? No, performance remains unchanged. A combined processor with a graphics chip from AMD will still be used. The installed RAM will also remain at 16 GB, and other technical specifications remain identical. The theoretical graphics performance of 10.3 TFLOPS remains unchanged.
What new features are there? Sony addresses the biggest criticism of its PS5, as it offers the PS5 with an SSD with a total of 1 TB of storage. The PS5 was criticized for only providing 664 GB of storage compared to the Xbox Series X.
Perhaps even more exciting is the additional drive that you can buy for the PS5 Digital Edition.

Lighter weight, smaller size, and purchasable drive
How much does the PS5 Slim weigh? Sony has significantly reduced the weight of the new models:
The current PS5 with drive weighs a hefty 4.5 kg.
The current PS5 Digital Edition weighs 3.9 kg.
The new PS5 Slim model is supposed to weigh only 3.2 kg and is therefore significantly lighter than all previous models.
Will the PS5 Slim finally be smaller? Yes, the new models will indeed be significantly slimmer and lose size. Here we present the data again in detail:

How much will the new drive cost? You can purchase the new Blu-ray drive for the PS5 later for 119.99 Euros. This way, you can turn your digital PS5 into a PS5 with a drive. However, there is a catch: The price with the “purchase” will then exceed the total price of the PS5 with a built-in drive.

Intel has introduced a new graphics card out of nowhere. The manufacturer aims to target gamers who are using Full HD.
The manufacturer Intel has been offering graphics cards alongside processors for a few months now. They have unexpectedly showcased a new graphics card: The Intel Arc A580. What can the graphics card do? MeinMMO presents you with the first information and details about the new graphics card.
The Intel Arc A580 is a Full HD graphics card for under 200 Euros
What can the graphics card do? Intel itself presents the graphics card as a product that aims to provide smooth Full HD gameplay. They use examples like Baldur’s Gate, Diablo 4, or Cyberpunk 2077:
In Cyberpunk 2077, the graphics card is said to achieve 85 FPS with activated upscaling technology.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is expected to run natively at 90 FPS.
In Diablo 4, Intel’s Arc A580 is expected to achieve an impressive 155 FPS.
With Xᵉ Super Sampling, they also carry an upscaler similar to what AMD and Nvidia have been offering to gamers for a while: A low resolution is calculated and then upscaled to the actual resolution.
The official benchmarks from Intel for the new Arc A580.
When will the graphics card be available? Intel’s new A580 is supposed to be available starting today. Intel is reportedly not selling a model themselves but mentions three suppliers: ASRock, GUNNIR, and Sparkle. The prices are expected to start at 180 Euros. This puts it on par with a GeForce RTX 3050 or a Radeon RX 6500 XT.
What could be a drawback? Intel wants to deliver its new Arc A580 with only 8 GB of video memory. This could become quite limiting in the long run. Because 8 GB of video memory is no longer considered future-proof, as games increasingly require more video memory.
The problem with insufficient video memory is currently evident with the Xbox Series S in new games. The small console quickly hits its limits:
Today, October 10, 2023, there is a spotlight hour featuring Pokémon GO with Knilz. We at MeinMMO provide you with all the important information about the event start, the bonus, and the shiny.
What is a spotlight hour? Every Tuesday, Pokémon GO hosts a one-hour event where a specific monster is highlighted and spawns everywhere in the wild. This Pokémon is accompanied by an additional bonus intended to enhance the event.
Today is the day again, and you can encounter the plant Pokémon Knilz from the 3rd generation of games. We have summarized when it spawns in the wild and what bonuses it brings you below.
Spotlight hour on October 10 – Start, bonuses & shiny
When does the spotlight hour start? As every Tuesday, the spotlight hour today runs from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
What bonuses are there? During the one-hour event, you can primarily encounter Knilz in the wild. If the spawns are not enough, you can attract more specimens by activating incense.
Additionally, you will receive double XP when evolving Pokémon during this time. This applies not only to the plant Pokémon but also to all other monsters in the game that you can catch. You can also choose to play raids or activate the mystery box.
If you are instead focusing on catch XP or candies, you will find options in upcoming spotlight hours in October:
Are there shiny Knilz? Yes, with a bit of luck, you can also encounter a shiny version of Knilz. However, keep in mind that the shiny chance is not increased during the spotlight hour.
Knilz in shiny form
Is the spotlight hour worth it? Yes, while Knilz itself is not particularly strong, it has a strong evolution in Kapilz. Thus, the plant Pokémon can score with high attack and good moves, which is why it is among the best attackers in Pokémon GO.
Additionally, Knilz is among the 22 monsters that give you more stardust when caught. You will receive 500 stardust for a normal catch. If you also use a star piece and there is a weather boost active, you can even receive up to 938 stardust per catch. Therefore, if you need stardust or are looking for a strong attacker for raids, you should take advantage of the event.
How do you like the content of today’s spotlight hour? Will you secure Knilz? Or do you prefer to hope for a strong attacker in the coming weeks? Feel free to let us know here at MeinMMO in the comments and exchange thoughts with other trainers.
Thanks to Prime Day, you can currently get several animes at significantly lower prices. We have handpicked a few of them for you here.
On Prime Day, you have the chance to buy many movies at significantly lower prices. Amazon offers animes at much lower prices, which is practical since animes often cost a lot of money.

Penguin Highway
The film is about a fourth grader named Aoyama, who is very serious and confident in himself. After school, he mostly goes to the dentist to visit his secret crush, a dental assistant.
There’s a little researcher and explorer inside Aoyama, and when one day a horde of strange penguins causes a stir in his hometown, he wants to investigate with his friends and the dental assistant.
“Penguin Highway” is a fascinating, sometimes somewhat crazy film. The coming-of-age story is certainly among the most beautiful films of recent years and its design reminds one of the well-known Ghibli films.
If you have always wanted to know what a “penguin highway” is, you should definitely give this film a chance.

Your Name. – Yesterday, Today and Forever
“Your Name” tells the story of two young people. They exchange bodies whenever they sleep, which causes a lot of chaos and confusion since they suddenly find themselves in the opposite gender. The special thing is: The two protagonists do not know each other at all.
However, while they keep switching bodies, they leave diary entries for each other and thus get closer. They tease each other, curse about one another, and give tips for the next day.

From then on, he becomes the next victim of bullying. Many years later, at college, he encounters the girl he bullied – and sees it as his chance to make amends for past mistakes.
The film addresses many serious topics and is not necessarily an anime for a fun and cheerful evening. However, it is worth engaging with the protagonist and his story.

Josie, The Tiger and the Fish
It’s about a young student who works alongside his studies to earn enough money for his dream. By chance, he meets a paraplegic girl who lives very withdrawn in her own world. He then agrees with her grandmother that he will accompany the girl through daily life and will be paid for it.
However, the relationship between the two is not always easy, as both are completely different beings with their own ideas. But before the young student wants to give up, he wants to fulfill one last wish of the girl and take her to the sea. Because the love for the sea and the underwater world connects the two opposite people.
If you want to watch a beautiful yet sad film, then definitely give “Josie” a chance. It’s a touching and loving film that you can watch on an evening.

Lupin III. – The Castle of Cagliostro
Lupin III. is actually a master thief who has to solve cases from time to time. In his film “The Castle of Cagliostro,” he travels to the smallest country in the world, “Cagliostro.”
But instead of stealing something, he accidentally saves the beautiful princess Clarisse, who is subsequently kidnapped. He then does everything he can to free the woman while getting deeper into the dark machinations of the Cagliostro family. At the same time, he is pursued by an inspector and the Japanese police, which makes the rescue operation even more complicated. Because everyone wants to find out what lies behind the great treasure of Cagliostro.
You can definitely tell the film’s age (from 1979) by now, but the story is still worth seeing. Especially if you already know Lupin III from his other films, you should give this anime a chance. By the way, the film is by none other than Hayao Miyazaki, whom many know better for his Ghibli films.

In addition, all coins were also removed from the account balance. For the streamer, this meant, according to his own statements, a loss of 17 million coins.
All in all, the affected party lost a total of around 28 million coins. This corresponds to more than three times the price of the most expensive player on the transfer market (Icon Ronaldo costs around 8 million coins). Many players haven’t even earned that many coins throughout their entire FIFA career.
In the video, he summarizes his state of mind as broken, which is why he reacts so emotionally. Resigned, his fellow sufferer MckyTV, who faced the same fate, shows himself.
You can see his statement in the following TikTok.
How did MckyTV react to the hack? MckyTV seems to have made peace with his current account EA FC 24 after the hacking attack. In contrast to the incident with IamTabak, MckyTV apparently even witnessed the theft.
After noticing the loss of some players early in the morning, he contacted EA Support. Unfortunately for the streamer, he discovered upon his next login that, like IamTabak, he had lost everything.
Consequently, he applied for a new account, as he no longer trusts the security measures of his previous account.
In both incidents, parallels can be drawn. Why exactly people who are well-known in the public eye are popular targets for hacking attacks, you can read below.
Ultimate Team: Top 100 Trader Ranking as Blacklist for Hackers
What is the Top 100 Trader Ranking? In Ultimate Team, you can compare your transfer income, teams, or club value with that of other players. The comparison is not only valid for your friends but for players from around the world.
The transfer revenues are thus prestigious for traders worldwide. The biggest streamers compete for a place among the top 100 traders.
This list also included IamTabak and is probably why he was specifically targeted by the hackers. In the past, other ranked major streamers like Trymacs, GamerBrother, Smexy, or EliasN97 have also fallen into the sights of criminals and were robbed of their coins and players.
Why are especially the Top 100 Traders at risk? Since these traders have been able to generate the most transfer income, one can assume that the hackers see a lot of coins and thus, in the literal sense, the big money for themselves. The stolen coins and coins are likely to be resold on an illegal market for real money.
For comparison: The price for 5 million coins is around €750 on a site that offers the illicit coin business for real money (via www.mmoga.de).
Apparently, even the best security measures, such as two-factor authentication, do not help against a targeted attack. The two affected individuals affirm in their videos that they have done everything possible to set up the highest possible security for their account.
How hackers continue to gain access to accounts despite these measures is currently unknown. It can be assumed that as long as this security gap exists, the theft of coins will continue.
For the affected streamers, the same applies as for any regular player who has been hacked: They need to contact customer service and wait for EA Sports to process their case.
With the new expansion Rise of the Angry Earth, the MMORPG New World has introduced a new weapon: the Flail. This weapon is primarily used in close combat, but is also excellent for tanks and healers. We at MeinMMO present you with 3 builds.
What can the weapon do? The Flail is a melee weapon with a slightly increased range. It offers a lot of support and many tank abilities. While you can also deal damage with it, its focus clearly lies on the other two roles in the Holy Trinity. This is not least due to the shield in the off-hand and of course the two skill trees:
Cleric: This tree offers some damage abilities but also provides a lot of support for the group. You distribute buffs like Empowerment or heal teammates passively through attacks or via the ability Everything is Better Together.
Bastion: Here you can grant yourself defensive enhancements and receive additional bonuses for your equipped shield.
In the video, you can watch some first gameplay of the weapon:

New World: Gameplay of the new weapon Flail
[toc]
Flail Build as Tank
How to play as a tank? Basically, your goal is to keep the aggro of enemies on you. This works quite well if you equip a taunt stone on the weapon. Then, the ability Protective Flail also provides taunt. The ability Arcane Whirl, on the other hand, roots enemies so they will initially stay close to you.
You also have some passive buffs for yourself and the group, but you must also actively block and dodge. The good thing is that you are rewarded with passive effects for blocking and dodging.
Especially important is the effect Courage. Because of the bonus in Constitution, you receive 10% less damage when you have this buff. However, you can grant this buff to yourself constantly, for example by using one of the three abilities.
Which attributes should I skill? Basically, you use:
350 Constitution
50 Concentration for more healing
Rest in Strength for additional damage
As a very experienced tank, you can reduce Constitution to 200 and skill 150 Concentration instead. This noticeably increases your damage.
Which abilities should I skill?
Arcane Shatter from the Cleric tree
Arcane Whirl from the Cleric tree
Protective Flail from the Bastion tree
Which weapons do I use as a combo? The best options are sword and shield, as this is also a strong tank combo. If you prefer to play a bit more offensively, you can tank with the axe or the spear.
What does my equipment look like? You use heavy armor, where the perk with additional maximum life is important. On your weapons and jewelry, everything should also revolve around life or life-steal. This makes it much easier for healers. The perk Refreshing Move is also useful, which reduces the cooldowns of your abilities with your attacks.
Ideally, you use the new artifact Odo, a flail that passively heals you while you block. An ideal weapon for tanking.
What does my rotation look like? You start the fight with Arcane Shatter. Here you make a light jump forward and create an AoE field that weakens enemies. Then you need to use a heavy attack to give the enemy the debuff Damage. This activates passively through your Bastion tree.
Then you use Protective Flail for taunt and Arcane Whirl to buff yourself.
Otherwise, the build is very easy to play because you don’t have to land any special attacks to buff yourself. Many effects simply trigger passively.
Flail Build as Healer
How to play as a healer? As a healer, you combine the flail with the life staff. This way, you can effectively heal the group and have a lot of useful buffs on your flail for the group.
Which attributes should I skill? As a healer, you use:
350 Concentration
The rest in Constitution
Which abilities should I skill?
Arcane Shatter from the Cleric tree
Arcane Eruption from the Cleric tree
Protective Flail from the Bastion tree
What does my equipment look like? In PvE, you use light armor, which provides 30% additional healing. Important for you is the Diamond Gem in the life staff, which increases your damage and healing as long as you have full health.
What does my rotation look like? Basically, you should position yourself where you are near your ranged allies since you heal them passively. You start with the flail and the ability Arcane Shatter. This field weakens enemies and gives allies life-steal. Ideally, you place it right by the tank.
Through Protective Flail, you establish a special connection with the tank, causing him to take less damage. Arcane Eruption is your healing ability.
If you need to heal a lot, then switch to the life staff. There, it’s important that you use your passive ability Intensification. For this, you have to execute 3 strong attacks, which noticeably increases your healing. To maintain the 3 stacks, you must land a strong attack every 10 seconds. Also, dodging increases your healing passively, so you should use it every now and then.
Then, you place the ability Blessed Ground on your tank or in your group and use the ability Beacon. From then on, Beacon can be used permanently on cooldown.
How to play in PvP? In PvP, there are actually several ways to use the flail. One option is the healer build shown above, which also works great in Outpost Rush or in invasions. However, here Arcane Whirl is often used instead of direct healing with Arcane Eruption.
Another variant is a kind of offensive tank with sword and shield. This build is what we are looking at here.
Which attributes should I skill?
350 Strength
25 Concentration
Rest Constitution
Which abilities should I skill?
Arcane Shatter
Arcane Whirl
Charge
Which weapons do I use as a combo? As mentioned above, the combo uses the sword and shield along with the flail and shield.
What does my equipment look like? Here you have two options. If you are unsure and want to endure a bit, you should rely on heavy armor. This is generally a safe choice.
If you want to be a bit bolder, you can play this combo with light armor and deal a lot of damage.
What does my rotation look like? You either use the Charge or the Jump from the sword to get close to the enemies. Then use Arcane Shatter, a heavy attack, and Arcane Whirl.
Next, you use auto-attacks or another stun found in the sword abilities.

If you look at the comments under the trailer (via YouTube), My Time at Portia is definitely worth a look.
For example, ToshiraMatsukaze writes that it is a beautiful game and one would never stop recommending it to friends because everyone should experience the love that has been put into the game.
Elsewhere, TwinrovaXD writes that they were never a person who liked such games, but My Time at Sandrock is great, and they really enjoyed the story and gameplay.

During Prime Deal Day, there is a top-notch Anime available for a relatively low price. Our anime demon Cortyn reveals why you should get Code Geass.
Anime fans have it relatively hard in Europe, and especially in Germany. While there is a plethora of streaming providers with current series, older works often leave you with the choice of buying the entire series on DVD or BluRay – and that can get quite expensive. Depending on the series, you can easily fork out three-digit amounts.
That’s a pity, as some masterpieces from the last decades might never be experienced in solid quality. Now, during the “Amazon Prime Deal Days”, many series are available at a reduced price. Among them is Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion.
What is Code Geass about? Code Geass takes place in an alternative version of our world. In 2010, the Holy Britannian Empire declared war and directly subjected several states – including Japan. From then on, the country is referred to as “Colonial 11”, and the Japanese are only called “Elevens”, forced to live in ghettos – even losing their basic rights.

However, some resistance groups rise up against the occupiers, including the young student Lelouch Lamperouge, who acquires a very special power through an accident: The power of kings. This ability allows him to give a single command to anyone who looks him in the eye, which must be executed without question.
From the underground, Lelouch tries to pit the various factions against each other while simultaneously maintaining the facade of an elite student and wanting to protect his sister from the war.
What does Code Geass cost? Currently, during the “Amazon Prime Deal Days”, the two complete packages are available for €47.97 (Season 1) and €46.97 (Season 2) – each reduced by 31% and 33%, respectively. The entire work consists of 50 episodes and has a runtime of over 20 hours.
Thus, the series currently costs just under €2 per episode – compared to many (often significantly worse) series, a truly solid price and almost a must-buy for fans of the story.

Why is Code Geass worth watching? Anime often tends to feel very formulaic and predictable or simply overloaded. However, Code Geass manages to combine a variety of different genres in a way that harmonizes beautifully within the presented story.
No matter whether you are into political intrigue, character destinies with plenty of drama, exciting mech battles, military tactics, or just a few “cute waifus” – Code Geass has all of that in abundance, and yet it never feels “too much”. Exciting battles and calmer character moments alternate constantly.
Furthermore, the story spans several years, allowing you to truly witness the impact of the protagonists’ and antagonists’ actions.
Code Geass also has one of the best and most well-thought-out endings of all series – although I don’t want to spoil that here.
Whoever is looking for a really great anime that will entertain you over a (very, very) long weekend and that you enjoy revisiting every few years, is well advised with Code Geass.

For EA FC 24, leaks are circulating about a new event. It is supposed to be called ‘Trailblazers“, starting this week, and will distribute new PlayStyles to players. Here you will find everything we know.
The well-known FUT leaker Donk (via X) has released information about a new promo in EA FC 24 Ultimate Team. It is supposed to be called ‘Trailblazers“ and is set to launch as the next event.
When does the event start? Since there is currently no official information, no date for the supposed new event has been set. However, Friday, October 13th at 7:00 PM sounds like a plausible time for the start since that is when the RTTK promo ends.
All leaks and information about ‘Trailblazers’
What we already know about ‘Trailblazers’: According to the leak, the new event will focus on the PlayStyles introduced in FC 24 the PlayStyles. New special cards are expected to receive new PlayStyles+ and cards that already have a PlayStyle+ are supposed to exchange it for another one.
The leaker talks about new ‘Trailblazers cards’ for:
Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid)
Sophie Smith (Portland Thorns FC)
So it could be that strikers receive off-position PlayStyles like the Trivela or Slide Tackle. Or it could be defenders who receive the Powershot PlayStyle. We’ll stay tuned.
But keep in mind that these are unconfirmed leaks. The final promo could include completely different cards and offer a concept that differs from the leak.
Are you still looking for a new headset for gaming or for the home office? The Steelseries Arctis 7 and its successor Arctis 7+ as well as the Nova 7 are good candidates. Why these models are exciting for you is explained by MeinMMO editor Sophia Weiß.
Three years ago, I received the Steelseries Arctis 7 as a gift. Since then, it has been my loyal companion for private gaming, but also in the home office. Since both modern variants, the Arctis 7+ and the Arctis Nova 7, are on sale for Prime Day, I would like to introduce you to why I love the headset and can also recommend the successors.
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
Comfort and a special feature are the highlights of the Arctis 7
What do I like about the Arctis 7? The comfort. The headset weighs 350 grams, but feels super light and fits just right.
The wearing height is adjustable with a rubber band, so the speakers always sit correctly. The rubber band also ensures that no uncomfortable pressure is created on the head, which had occasionally happened with my once beloved Razer Kraken V2. This way, the hardware does not limit me for long gaming nights or the next meeting marathon.
The ear cushions resting against the head are very easy to remove and reattach. This is an absolute quality-of-life feature for me, as I can easily clean the fabric cushions.
Furthermore, I enjoy the freedom that wireless brings me: I no longer have to worry about internal cable breaks when things get intense while gaming. On the other hand, I can easily get up during game breaks or longer meetings. This way, I stay on the ball and can still refill my coffee or energy drink.
The mute button on the back is simply genius. It allows me to manually turn my headset on and off. This eliminates the frantic search for the mouse pointer and the unmute button on the screen to quickly make myself audible for two sentences in the meeting.
My personal absolute highlight is that the Arctis 7 offers two audio channels: For example, “Arctis 7 Chat” runs Microsoft Teams or my current Discord conversation. The second channel “Arctis 7 Game” plays the sound of my current game or browser tabs.
This way, I can either manually adjust the volume of how loud my conversation partners should be compared to my currently opened medium on the PC or with an additional knob on the headset.
The microphone is the biggest weakness of the gaming headset
What do I not like so much? The sound of the microphone is unfortunately only okay and not brilliant. For work in the home office, it is absolutely sufficient, and even for private gaming, it is more than enough. However, anyone who requires very good sound quality – whether for podcast recordings, streaming, or YouTube videos – will need an additional external microphone.
Also, in my view, the microphone is a weak point: it is retractable. Since receiving it, I’ve been worried that I might accidentally break it. So far, nothing has happened, but I have also handled it very carefully.
After three years, I can no longer charge the headset while wearing it: the mini-USB port is slightly worn out. This results in the charging cable slipping with the slightest movement, and the charging or not charging status is indicated by a loud sound.
Pros
1A comfort
2 audio channels with stepless balancing
Freedom of movement thanks to wireless
Stepless volume adjustment
Mute button on the headset
Cons
The microphone is only “OK”
Hardware weaknesses
Why do I recommend the Arctis 7+ and the Arctis Nova 7? I still own the original base version of the headset. The Arctis 7+ and the Nova 7 are based on it but improve it – as my MeinMMO hardware expert Benedikt Schlotmann assured me. Benedikt himself owns the latest version with the Nova 7 and is absolutely thrilled with it.
The Arctis 7+ replaces the mini-USB port with USB-C.
Offers a battery life of about 30 instead of just 24 hours.
Can be charged via USB-C and has a fast charge function for particularly intense days.
It looks closest to the base version.
The Nova 7 includes the same upgrades but can also be connected via Bluetooth and features a dual wireless function. With the latter, you can play two devices simultaneously.
My model is now hardly available. The two successor models are on the market. The Arctis 7+ has an MSRP of €169, but is available on Amazon for a regular price of €149. The Nova version, on the other hand, has an MSRP of €179 but is sold for a regular price of €153 on Amazon.
Both models are available at a discount for Amazon Prime Day. We present more headset recommendations here:

The WoW token is more expensive than ever on some realms. It is hardly possible to farm it through gold – however, ‘Gold Selling’ is being fought.
Those who do not want to pay a subscription in World of Warcraft earn the WoW token through gold. Conversely, players who would like a bit of gold but do not want to farm can buy a WoW token for real money and then offer it for gold in the game. This is a system that has been viewed critically since its inception.
Now the WoW token has reached a new peak – at least in America. A bug was partly responsible, but also the fact that hardly anyone needs gold right now.
Why was the price so high now? The fact that the price on the US realms temporarily rose to over 400,000 gold is likely due to several factors.
The first factor is that the demand for gold in World of Warcraft is currently very low. The current patch has been “played through” and aside from a few players getting boosts, hardly anyone needs gold.
The second important factor is that there was a bug yesterday for a few hours. New WoW tokens could not be infused into the system because listing in the auction house ended with an error message. Since the demand remained the same, but due to the error fewer WoW tokens circulated, the price briefly spiked to over 400,000 gold pieces.

When do prices rise? Typically, gold prices for the WoW token always rise just before and after the release of a new game on Battle.net. This is because the WoW tokens purchased with gold can also be converted into Battle.net balance. For example, anyone wanting a skin in Overwatch 2 or a Battle Pass in Diablo IV can indirectly purchase it with WoW gold.
At the same time, the price steadily increases when there is no need for large amounts of gold in World of Warcraft – such as currently in Dragonflight. Gold is currently only marginally important for covering daily expenses. There are no particularly large purchases at the moment.
In times of Shadowlands, it was different. Players were encouraged to buy new legendary items every few months – which often cost several hundred thousand gold.
“It’s better to work”
This is how the community reacts: Under the post in the WoW subreddit, the peak price of the WoW token is being discussed.
A bit cynically, rowlga sees it:
“It always goes just above what I have saved when my subscription runs out.”
Absolutelynobody54 points out a fact that probably applies to most:
“It’s better to work a few hours than to grind for a whole month [for the gold].”
Indeed, in most countries, it has almost always been more lucrative to spend a few hours of real work time to buy the WoW subscription or the gold via a WoW token. After all, for most WoW fans, it is likely much easier and faster to earn €20 than farming six-figure gold amounts in the game.
Only a few very successful auction house masters are probably excluded from this – and even they are likely to earn less on average per hour.
However, a side effect of the high gold price for the WoW token is that the purchase of illegal gold becomes less attractive. Because if you get so much gold for selling the WoW token, illegal gold becomes less tempting – especially since there is no risk of getting your account banned when buying and selling the WoW token.
In the meantime, the price of the WoW token has dropped again on the US realms. In Europe, it remains at 390,000 gold – however, the EU price is usually always slightly above the American price.
Do you use the WoW token to get gold? Or do you pay your subscription with the token?
What is certain is that the evolutions already have an interesting effect on the game. They can even influence the market value of cards that can potentially be enhanced through them.
In EA FC 24 are the evolutions of one of the most popular new features. However, players are waiting for more.
These are evolutions: The evolutions are an exciting new feature in Ultimate Team, allowing you to upgrade certain players when they meet the requirements. For each evolution, you can select a card.
Consequently, the evolutions are quite popular among players, who are now waiting for new upgrade possibilities. At the launch of EA FC 24, six evolutions were available in Ultimate Team. Now players are demanding more, because EA had actually announced that more would come.
Players are waiting for new evolutions that have been announced
When are new evolutions coming? That’s somewhat open, because EA actually announced in the pitch notes for the launch of Ultimate Team: “In addition to the types of evolutions mentioned above, we will introduce new evolutions every week during the ‘Welcome to the Club’ season. In the first season, there will be a total of 12 evolutions, including a tutorial evolution and a FC Founders evolution” (via ea.com).
As of now, however, no new evolutions have arrived since the original six. The current “Welcome to the Club” season still runs for 22 days, until November 1st. Therefore, by then, six more evolutions should actually have been released.
A weekly release of one evolution per week is already not possible. So either multiple will come in shorter intervals, or it will take longer.
What players say: The innovation was well received right away, and many would like to continue. Thus, some players are expressing their irritation on social media about the lack of evolution updates. Also in the subreddit for EA Sports FC:

There, a player compares the situation with the “Event” tab from last year’s Ultimate Team, which remained unused overall. “EA is wasting a great feature,” writes the user HillariousLife (via reddit).
In the comments, players are wondering when the next ones will come:
One user suspects that the next ones will come when the current ones expire (via reddit). In the case of “Defense Speed” and “Unyielding Wing,” that would be the case on October 11th, in the evening, and in the case of “Helpful Supply” parts 1 & 2 on Monday evening, October 16th.
“I need more evolutions for my silvers and bronzes. I can’t upgrade my striker because he is rated too low, which is really bad,” wishes one (via reddit).
“It’s increasingly looking like a missed engagement opportunity for EA,” comments another (via reddit).
Here, it simply remains to be seen when the new evolutions will come into play and what they will ultimately look like.
What is certain is that the evolutions already have an interesting effect on the game. They can even influence the market value of cards that can potentially be enhanced through them.
