Relatively early on, you will encounter collectible cards in the new MMORPG Lost Ark. The game takes a relatively long time to explain these to you. We at MeinMMO want to get ahead of that and answer all your questions about the cards.
What are collectible cards? You obtain the cards from all kinds of game content as random drops or quest rewards. Many of the NPCs you can flirt with will give you their card as a reward for improving your relationship.
These cards then go into your card inventory. Initially, it only has 100 slots, which is hardly enough for all the cards, but it can be expanded with gold once you need it. Overall, you have space for over 500 different collectible cards.
Generally, the cards become truly interesting in the endgame. There, they give you additional bonuses to attributes through sets.
How should you handle cards? It will often happen that you simply have more cards than space in your inventory for them. However, the cards are far too valuable for you to just throw them away. If you have too many cards left over, it’s better to store them on another character.
If you have multiple cards of the same type left over, they simply stack on top of each other and do not take up any additional space in your card inventory.
Your card inventory can hold over 500 cards
Card sets bring attributes and can be upgraded
What do card sets bring? Basically, the MMORPG differentiates between active and passive card sets here. The card sets provide you, whether active or passive, with strong attribute advantages such as more damage, more life, or more defense.
The passive card sets activate by themselves once you have filled them. So if you have a passive set filled, which usually consists of 4 to 10 cards, you automatically activate passive bonuses without having to take further action.
Things are different with the active card sets. These offer stronger bonuses, but you need to be careful about which one you currently need the most. You can only have one active card set.

How can you upgrade sets? Every card in Lost Ark can be upgraded by you up to five times. To perform this upgrade, you need additional copies of the card and card experience, the latter often being harder to collect.
To fully upgrade a card, you need it fifteen times. Extra cards are therefore worthwhile. However, if you want to upgrade an entire set, it works a little differently.
To improve the values of a set, you can perform upgrades on the set. For this, you always need a certain number of total upgrades. For example, if you receive a set upgrade after 12 upgrades, all cards in the set must have received a total of 12 upgrades.
You can:
Upgrade all six set cards twice
Upgrade two cards five times and one two times
Upgrade three cards four times
And so on
The exact path for a set upgrade is up to you. What’s important for the set is only that you have distributed a certain number of total upgrades.
How do you gain card experience? You shouldn’t upgrade all cards just because you can. You need card experience for the upgrades and it is sometimes hard to come by.
If you want to specifically gather card experience, the best place to do so is the Cube Dungeon, which you unlock in the endgame of the game. This is the only place where you can be guaranteed to receive card experience and then focus on upgrades.
This set for DPS classes gives you a lot of crit chance
What are the best sets for you? When choosing the active set, you should primarily focus on which content you want to play next. The set “Abandoned Cliffs of Wind” is particularly well-suited for PvE as a DPS class.
This relatively easy-to-obtain set not only grants you more damage but also a solid bonus to critical hit chance. This is exactly what you want to achieve if you want to deal damage.
In raids and dungeons, you can then choose a set that focuses on damage against demons. Since you frequently encounter demons in these contents, this can be more beneficial to you than just the raw critical hit chance.
What do you think of the card sets? Do you want to focus on collecting all the cards because you enjoy it, or are you just collecting them because you have to in order to keep up with all the stats? How do you find the mechanic of collectible cards and the adventure booklet in general? Feel free to let us know in the comments here at MeinMMO.
An important part of Pokémon GO is the interaction with friends. However, the reddit community is currently complaining about the gift scrooges. We from MeinMMO have looked into what this is about and explain to you the reasons trainers have.
What happened? In Pokémon GO, each trainer can have up to 400 friends with whom they can interact daily. This is possible, for example, through battling each other, trading, and opening gifts.
With each day that an interaction takes place, the friendship level between these two players increases. However, the sending and opening of gifts often leads to discussions within the community. We will show you why.
That’s why trainers complain about gift scrooges
In order to raise the friendship level, daily interactions must take place. Many trainers try to achieve this interaction by regularly opening gifts. This includes the reddit user SplitBeanz, who shared a picture of two trainers just before the final level-up. He writes: “JUST OPEN YOUR GIFTS!!!”.

In the comments on his post, it quickly becomes clear that he is not alone in this situation. Many trainers know similar situations and also have players in their friend list who do not open their gifts.
However, the affected trainers can sometimes do nothing about it if they do not open their gifts. They have good reasons to withhold some gifts.
The reasons for the gift scrooges
After the reddit post by SplitBeanz, user lifeuncommon also shared his discontent about this topic and sheds light on the other side, namely that of the trainers who do not open their gifts.
He writes: “You can only open 20 gifts per day, but you can have 400 friends. People don’t open your gifts because they can’t, not because they don’t want to. Blame Niantic.” (via reddit.com).
In his further text, he explains that while the limit is sometimes raised to 30 or 40 gifts throughout the year due to time-limited events by Niantic, it is still not enough given the number of friends.
In fact, this is a significant problem that has existed for some time and is frequently discussed on social media. Many trainers would like to open their friends’ gifts daily, but the gift limit imposed by Niantic restricts them.
XP bonus: But there are also other reasons why trainers do not open their gifts. Trainers can earn particularly many experience points (XP) during the last friendship level-up. If they also use a lucky egg, they can double the amount from 100,000 XP to 200,000 XP.
This gives many players the incentive for a specific day, such as Community Day in February, to accumulate as many level-ups as possible and then open them consecutively. This way, only one lucky egg needs to be used.
Other reasons: But reaching the storage limit for items also plays a crucial role for some trainers according to the comments. Furthermore, it costs individual players too much time.
Trainers demand changes to gifts
Some trainers in the reddit community are now demanding a change to the gift limit as well as an improved functionality for opening and sending gifts. Here’s what the comments say (via reddit.com):
Flollyy: “I don’t understand why there is even a limit. We should be able to send and open gifts as much as we want.”
magnagan: “There shouldn’t be a limit. Or at least, adjust the limit to the number of friends. Also: do we really need so many steps/animations to open and send gifts?”
djstanz0: “Can we have a quality improvement by selecting X friends and sending/opening gifts instead of opening them one by one?”
New feature: Additionally, they would like another new feature. Some trainers suggest that there should be a reminder system that shows the trainers after a certain period that they still have unopened gifts. It should also be clear how old the gift is:
NevaMO (via reddit.com): “A few changes I would like to make regarding gifts and friends, I’d like to see how long a specific friend hasn’t played, not just ‘2+ days ago.’ I’d also like to see how old a gift is…that’s the same scenario as ‘2+ days ago’…”
uc3gfpnq (via reddit.com): “I think ‘1 day, 2 days, 2+ days, 1 week, 1 week+, 2 weeks, 2 weeks+, 1 month, 1 month+’ is frequent enough to get the idea. Or, if they could spare server space, show the number of days since the last activity (up to 2 months or so).”
freedomboogers89 (via reddit.com): “I would also appreciate a reminder message that you can send them to remind to open the gift.”
Whether Niantic will make changes regarding the friend list and gifts to facilitate daily interaction remains to be seen. If there is any information about it, you will find out here on MeinMMO.
Do you also have friends in your list who do not open your gifts? Or do you only have a limited circle of other trainers with whom you interact? What changes would you like to see in the friend list and with gifts? Feel free to share your thoughts here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange ideas with other trainers.
Amazon had already announced beforehand that an unusual system will be used for character names in Lost Ark. Once used, names must be manually unlocked by the developers. Trolls have now exploited this at the launch to steal popular character names.
What is the problem? Last night, there were issues with the download at the launch of Lost Ark. Players who were lucky could connect to the servers immediately, while most had to wait almost an hour.
The players typically used their head start to progress through the quest areas faster. However, some trolls took the time to create characters with well-known names and then delete them.
The names, however, remain deleted for now, which allowed some trolls to secure many well-known names.

Characters from Series, Movies, and Other Games “Deleted”
Which names were trolled? A user on 4chan bragged about having “deleted” well-known names like Sephiroth, Legolas, Naruto, Kirito, Anubis, Zelda, Erza, or Gandalf as early as 6:30 PM. We tried to contact players with the names Legolas, Naruto, and Kirito, but they do not exist. It seems he actually “deleted” the names.
The user gathered more ideas in the thread and stated he created more characters with names from Game of Thrones, Star Wars, and The Lord of the Rings.
It was also suggested in the thread to steal the names of well-known streamers. Notably mentioned was Asmongold, who sees great potential in Lost Ark. He did not get his name, nor alternatives like Zack, Zackrawrr, and even Asmonwastaken.
Why can names be “deleted”? This is due to a system by Amazon itself. Currently, character names are not automatically released again. If Legolas has been created and deleted, the name is completely removed from the system for the time being.
Statement from the developers in the Lost Ark forum.
Players Are Angry at Trolls, but Also at Amazon
How is the action perceived? On the reddit for Lost Ark, there is a thread that has brought attention to the trolls from 4chan. The action received over 400 comments:
The user Nightmare4545 comments ironically: “I didn’t see that coming when they [Amazon] announced their stupid naming policy.”
Katacutie also sees the fault with Amazon: “Honestly: The people doing this are assholes, but Amazon is to blame. This naming system has no justification in 2022.”
Kaaji1359 is instead glad about the trolls’ action: “Honestly, if you like these names, they are doing us a favor.”
What do you think of the action? Is there even an MMO feeling when these classics are missing in terms of naming? Do you see the fault with Amazon or are the trolls the problem? Feel free to write it in the comments.

You can equip yourselves with various stuff in Dying Light 2 and beat, chop, and pierce zombies with it. Or you arm yourselves with special weapons that give you a significant advantage in combat against special enemies. But where can you find the best weapons in the game? Find out here at MeinMMO!
What is special about the weapons in Dying Light 2? Most weapons in Dying Light 2 are melee weapons, which can only be repaired using this trick. You can find these weapons randomly in the open world, and they come in the rarity grades known from MMORPGs, ranging from “common” to “legendary”.
Where can you find good stuff? Weapons of “rare” quality and better are found in crates dropped by parachute over the city. They usually lie on tall buildings, and you can recognize them from a distance by the parachutes fluttering down from the buildings.
A good source for particularly powerful weapons are the GRE trailers that you can open with your GRE key. However, keep in mind that the weapons inside are fixed to the level you have when picking them up.
These are the best weapons in the game – Get them quickly
Apart from various weapons you find as loot, there are special ranged weapons that are available at fixed points in the game and the story, and which are usually ranged weapons.
Bow: Since there are no firearms left in the city, bows are your first choice for effective ranged combat. Unfortunately, dead archers do not leave behind usable bows, but you can earn your first bow in the mission “Wal(t)zertanz”. This mission becomes available when you leave Alt-Villedor.
As an alternative, you can also buy a bow from traders starting from level 3.
A particularly strong bow can be found in the shoe mission. It is located in Lawan’s apartment.
Bangstick: Later in the game, you can take on the Observatory mission. Once you complete this, you can buy the blueprint for the “Bangstick” from Peacekeeper traders. This is an improvised firearm that you can then craft. The Bangstick only has 2 shots, but they hit hard, so save one for particularly strong enemies.
Peacekeeper Crossbow: This weapon is one of the strongest instruments of death in the game. You can only get it by conquering areas for the Peacekeeper faction. With the fourth reward level, you will receive the “Crossbow Package”. You will get a semi-automatic crossbow that fires very quickly.
You can also craft various bolts, and the weapon even scales with your level! Just that is a good reason to serve the Peacekeepers.
Which class in TERA (PC, PS4, and Xbox One) is best suited for which taste and preference? What classes are available on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One? Learn more about the advantages and disadvantages of each class in our TERA class and race guide for 2022.
“What should I play?” This question occupies many MMORPG players given this huge selection, and players of the action-MMO TERA are no exception.
We have listed all 13 classes and 7 races for you and show which hero type is best suited for which taste and play style.
Update: We have revised and adjusted this article again in February 2022. The basis of our research was the Subreddit for TERA as well as the TERA Wiki. The original version of this article was created with the help of Noyn from the official TERA forum, who assisted in this guide and comparison of classes. The foundation was then the PC version.
The 13 Classes of TERA at a Glance
The currently 13 classes in TERA are divided into tanks, supporters, and ranged as well as melee DPS. Furthermore, the classes differ in their choice of armor, there are heavy as well as light armors and robes.
[toc]
That’s the general information about the classes. In the following paragraphs, you will find details about each class and their gameplay. Unless otherwise mentioned, all races and genders can use each class.
The Tank Classes in TERA
Tanks have the task of protecting their group and binding the enemy. Three classes are particularly good for this in TERA, and a fourth class, the Berserker, can also become a tank from level 65 onwards.
If you want to be tanks and nothing else, then choose a Lancer as your class. The heavily armored warrior with the shield and lance is a true damage point sponge. He absorbs the enemy’s attacks as if there were no tomorrow and has many skills to draw the attention of enemies to himself. Additionally, he buffs the whole group.
Role
Classic Tank
Combat Style
Melee
Equipment
Plate
Advantages: The Lancer attracts massive aggro from enemies with his skills. He also strengthens the group with buffs.
Disadvantages: The Lancer is sluggish and requires good timing. As a beginner, you might be better off choosing a different tank class. Those who play such a main tank should reliably master their hero, or else it can quickly lead to a group wipe. He also requires a lot of mana.
The Lancer in Solo Play: When you are alone with the Lancer, you will have some trouble with farming despite high survivability. This is because the tank deals comparatively little damage, and even if you eventually kill an enemy, your hero works best in a group.
The Lancer in Endgame PvE: Currently, there is no better tank than the Lancer. You shouldn’t have any problems finding a group. His group buffs and high resistance round off his strong overall package. If powerful burst DPS classes are on the team, the Lancer is practically required because he reliably holds aggro.
Storm Furies and their male counterparts, Storm Fists, are combative fellows who beat enemies with massive gauntlets. They deal good damage and are among the best solo DPS classes in the game. Additionally, they have excellent defensive abilities.
Role
Tank with attack power, Off-Tank
Combat Style
Melee
Equipment
Plate
Earlier, only human females could be Storm Furies, but now there is also the male version called Storm Fist! Furthermore, now the cute Elin and Popori can also brawl as this class.
Advantages: Storm Furies deal a lot of damage for tanks and play more actively than Lancers. With a self-buff, automatic blocking is added, making it very easy for beginners in TERA to cope with this class.
Disadvantages: Unfortunately, Storm Furies do not have group support skills. Additionally, it can be a bit tricky to maintain the active self-buff since you have to attack regularly to do so, which may neglect tanking.
The Storm Fury in Solo Play: Since Storm Furies can take a lot of hits, block, and deal heavy blows, they are optimal for solo farming.
The Storm Fury in Endgame PvE: The Storm Fury is not as good a tank as the Lancer due to the lack of group buffs, but she does her job decently and achieves higher damage potential. However, be careful not to deal too much burst DPS in the group, or the Fury will quickly lose aggro. Moreover, the Storm Fury is easier to play, which makes her particularly interesting for less experienced players who want to be tanks.
The start of Season 2 in CoD Warzone is approaching and the roadmap shows what content you can expect. Among them is the Nebula V Bomb. According to the developers’ description, you should fear this thing.
When does it start? In Call of Duty Warzone and Vanguard, Season 2 starts on February 14. You can easily remember this, as it is also Valentine’s Day.
What’s new? The Call of Duty team presented in more detail on February 8 what to expect in the new chapter. This includes a new trailer and the Season 2 roadmap. We’ll show you all the content here and take a closer look at a powerful gas bomb that will soon be waiting for you in the matches.
Trailer and Roadmap of Season 2 in Warzone and Vanguard
This is the trailer: In the nearly two and a half minutes of the trailer, things get really brutal. Players in the comments love how intense the trailer and the cutscene look. You will see some new content from Season 2. We embed the video here:

What does the roadmap show? With a graphic, the developers show what Season 2 brings to Warzone, Vanguard, and Zombies. This also includes new weapons, operators, bundles, and perks. We have compiled the graphic here as a gallery:
The highlights in Season 2
These are the contents: The Activision team has already revealed what to expect in Season 2 of Warzone Pacific. This includes
two new Points of Interest on Caldera,
Bomber planes,
a redeploy balloon that allows you to launch yourself back into the air to reposition,
AI-controlled armored transport vehicles with two machine gun turrets (destroy them as they drop good loot),
a very nasty gas bomb that you should have great respect for.
What kind of bomb is that? The “Nebula V Bomb” is extremely rare to find on the map. It is located in a suitcase. Once a player activates it, it cannot be defused or stopped in any other way. A countdown begins, and then it’s on.
After the countdown, there is an explosion that deals damage in a smaller radius. Afterward, gas will seep out. Every operator who is not wearing a mask will be injured by the gas. You will be forced to leave your position without a mask as the gas cloud lasts for 2 minutes. After that, it either dissipates or turns into the deadly gas cloud that collapses around the combat area anyway.
In addition, you will also be able to find Nebula ammunition in the matches. However, your shots will not be stronger with it. Instead, opponents taken down by Nebula ammunition will emit a gas cloud. If you try to revive a teammate in that state, you will cough, get blurry vision, and suffer minor damage over time.
Are there counters against Nebula? Yes, there are. Mobile devices called “Portable Decontamination Stations (P.D.S.)” filter the air for several seconds. However, the devices can be destroyed by other players.
In Season 2, you can also expect new vehicles, weapons, new modes, quality-of-life changes, and bug fixes. Patch notes for the new Season 2 will be available shortly before the start. Keep in mind that Season 2 is set to start on Monday, February 14.

Dying Light 2 apparently takes place somewhere in Europe. However, the exact location has never been officially revealed. Now a player has used hints from the game to investigate – and claims to have found out which city you are jumping over the rooftops in.
Where does Dying Light 2 take place? The city where Aiden and the other survivors live is called Villedor. This name, which sounds slightly Spanish or French, does not belong to any city you would find on a real map.
While Harran from the first part is based on the Turkish city of the same name, Villedor is currently considered a fictional city. The official statement from the developers is that Villedor is “somewhere in Europe.” There are no more precise clues.
In any case, Dying Light 2 takes place in Europe, and the city itself has many European influences. This makes it particularly surprising that there is no Italian voiceover, which frustrates some fans.
A member of the community found the statement that Villedor is supposed to have “traces of Paris or Berlin, and maybe also of northern German cities like Hamburg.” Now, however, another user has found hints about where exactly Villedor could be located.

Dying Light 2 in Estonia – May contain traces of France and Germany
A player has found out: reddit user Axoltlover asked the NPCs in the city. They say that Villedor supposedly burned down completely in 1775.
After a brief investigation, he found out that exactly this happened in the city of Tartu in southeastern Estonia in the same year. Both the altitude and the design of the houses with their differently colored roofs also match, as he noted after comparisons.
Moreover, the fact that the days in the game last exactly 12 hours, just like in the city around September, fits. Since the NPCs have to “prepare for winter,” it is likely that it is currently late summer. Axoltlover is therefore sure: Villedor is Tartu in Estonia.
What other players say: The thread has attracted a lot of attention on reddit and prompted further speculations from other fans. For example, the user JuicyBullet is certain that Villedor is rather located in France and corresponds to the city of Clermont-Ferrand. Cathedral, cityscape, and landscape would fit better.
However, the city did not burn down in 1775, as other users point out. So it couldn’t be Clermont-Ferrand, even if the description fits. This leads some fans to speculate that Villedor is indeed in Estonia, but is modeled after other European cities.
Moreover, it is notable that there are many different accents and dialects to be heard in the game. This seems to stand out more in the English voiceover than in the German version.
What do you think, where is Villedor located? Discuss with us in the comments.
The location is not the only mystery of the city. A hidden, apparently time-traveling NPC is located on the rooftops of Villedor and even has a secret gift for you:

Lost Ark launched in Europe with 9 different servers. However, due to initial queues or by mistake, some players chose the wrong server. Can you still switch servers in Lost Ark?
Is there a server transfer in Lost Ark? No, currently you are bound to the server where you created your character. However, you can choose another server at any time and level a new character there. Your account is not tied to a server and leveling to level 50 is relatively fast.
It is possible that Amazon will enable server transfers in the future. The developers only implemented this feature in New World later on.

Many activities work cross-server
How important is it to play on the same server? It completely depends on what you want to experience. Some activities are server-bound, including:
Guilds
Your own islands
Playing together in the open world
GvG
PvP with a custom group
However, many other game contents can be experienced cross-server with other players, including:
Dungeons
Raids
Boss Rush
The PvP arena with random groups
The auction house
However, these activities only apply to players on European servers. There is no crossplay to America or South America.
Which server should I play on? That is up to your own preferences. The server Asta is the unofficial German server. In the global chat, German is primarily spoken, and many large guilds and communities have settled there.
Kadan, on the other hand, is the unofficial PvP server. If you focus on that, you should choose this server.
Which server are you currently playing on? Are you considering switching in the future? Feel free to write it in the comments.

In League of Legends the German professional player Elias “Upset” Lipp has the best stats in the LEC regarding the ratio of kills, deaths and assists. The 22-year-old experienced a crisis during the LoL Worlds 2021 and had to leave his team early.
These are the strong stats:
The Spring Split of the LEC 2022 is halfway through. The first 4 out of 8 weeks are over, and each team has already completed 9 matches. Upset’s team, Fnatic, is in a strong second place with a record of 6-3. Only the still undefeated Rogue are stronger.
Fnatic’s ADC, Upset, has the best KDA in the league with 18.8. He has 36 kills and 39 assists, having only died 4 times, despite his team losing 3 times already. The next best professional in the stats, the ADC of Rogue, has more kills than Upset but has also died twice as often.
Upset’s outstanding stats are primarily due to the fact that he rarely dies. The gold difference also indicates how disciplined Upset plays. He is ranked second in the league in this regard. Only the midlaner of Rogue, Larssen, has earned more gold on average after 10 minutes than his counterpart.
Is this an exception? No, it is not. Upset is experiencing an incredibly strong phase in League of Legends. Already at the LEC 2021 playoffs he dominated the competition at the age of 21 and achieved the best KDA in the playoffs.
Back then, it was said he had a “wife buff,” as he had just married shortly before his run. It is often said that LoL professionals perform particularly well when they have a wife supporting them.
Fans even suggested to the Korean top player Faker to get a girlfriend if he wants to win the 4th world championship title.

Wife received death threats after dispute with teammates
What was the crisis? Upset’s current strength demonstrates that he does not let drama distract him. During the Worlds 2021, he had to leave the championship in Iceland for personal reasons. His team lost 5 games without their key player and was eliminated.
Following the world championship, a teammate of Upset, the young Frenchman Adam, became furious with Upset, accusing him of abandoning his team to attend to his “lonely wife.” Upset denied this allegation. The discussion led to attacks that apparently affected Upset at the time.
But only a few weeks later, in the new season, Upset seems to be in top form, rarely dying and excelling in the highly exposed role of ADC:
The head of Lost Ark at Smilegate answered questions in an interview on the Twitch channel Crown. He was also asked why the MMORPG was delayed and if New World was a reason for that.
What kind of interview was it? The Twitch channel Crown is launching an Arkweek for the launch of Lost Ark, during which the new MMORPG will be the focus for the entire week.
In an event for the start of Arkweek, the head of Lost Ark was also interviewed and casually placed on a throne. One of the first questions from the moderators was why the MMORPG was actually delayed.
What does he say about it? He primarily emphasizes that Lost Ark was not delayed because of New World. The game from Amazon was no indicator for the progress of Lost Ark.
The game had to be released later because the localization of content from T2 and T3 took longer than planned. Additionally, he wanted to have T3 and Legion Raids in the game as soon as possible.
To make that happen, he made a personal request to Amazon to see these contents implemented. This request was seemingly answered positively, as we are now launching with T3 content.
And the first Legion Raids are expected to follow in a month. Nevertheless, all these reasons have led to the MMORPG needing to be delayed and not being able to meet the original release date.

New video about Lost Ark shows what makes the free MMORPG special
What does he expect from the launch?
What does the head say further? He also reaffirms his expectation that he anticipates about 200,000 concurrent players at launch. Everything beyond that would be a personal win for him.
A LOA ON, an event at the end of the year that is very relevant in Korea, should not happen for the West for the time being. That should only happen when the game in our version has caught up with the Korean version and both are on the same level, which would be his biggest goal.
What does he advise new players? He emphasizes that everyone should play the game at their own pace to get the most enjoyment out of Lost Ark. New content won’t disappear and can be played at any time.
When asked what he would say to people who claim his game is Pay2Win, he states that Free2Play players should not expect any hurdles.
What do you think of his statements? Are you looking forward to Lost Ark or have you even played it already? Do you personally feel pressure to complete the available content quickly, or do you play, as the head recommends, at your own speed? Feel free to let us know in the comments at MeinMMO.
The new MMORPG Lost Ark is almost here, and many people are still wondering if the game will remain exciting for them in the long run. We from MeinMMO take a look at the endgame and tell you what is particularly worth it there.
How can you get to the endgame the fastest? In Lost Ark, the leveling process usually doesn’t take too long. You quickly reach the soft cap of level 50, but getting to level 60 takes a bit longer. However, this is hardly relevant for many endgame contents.
The fastest way to reach this is by playing through the normal story campaign and completing some side quests and events along the way. You won’t need much more to reach level 50. The last 10 levels to 60 will be quite a grind.
Why should you enjoy it the first time? Take your time with your first character and explore everything you want to explore. There are no deviations in the story and leveling process of Lost Ark.
If you create a new character, you will experience exactly the same thing again. Having multiple characters is important for the endgame and sometimes even essential. You will rush through the story enough to reach level 50.
Start video
Lost Ark delivers intense action with 15 classes – See here in the video what they look like
Activity 1 – Chaos Dungeons
What should you do first? You should complete the first quest series in the new level 50 area as quickly as possible to unlock the first important endgame activity, which is particularly worthwhile, namely the Chaos Dungeons.
What are Chaos Dungeons? Chaos Dungeons are the first of three particularly important endgame activities and the first opportunity to improve your gear score. In the dungeons, you will face waves of enemies that you must defeat.
There you will receive randomly generated loot. So it is rather tedious to improve your gear score this way, but it is the first chance you have to maximize it.
You can complete these dungeons twice a day per character. So if you want to spend a lot of time in the dungeons, it is already worthwhile to have more than one character over level 50.
You can see a complete Chaos Dungeon here:

How can you improve your gear score further? Once you have completed the quest line of the first level 50 continent, you can directly proceed to the next. For completing the quests on this continent, you will receive a complete gear set.
This gear already has a relatively high gear score and in most cases is an upgrade for your equipment. You will need this as well to face the next of the three particularly important endgame activities – the Guardian Raids.
What are Guardian Raids? To participate in Guardian Raids, you always need a certain gear score. This score is different for each Guardian Raid, and the various raids become correspondingly tougher.
In the Guardian Raids, which you conquer in a group of 4 players, you must defeat a specific boss. You have 20 minutes for this boss, and when he falls, there are good rewards. These are not random, like in the Chaos Dungeons, but somewhat predetermined in a pool.
Just like the Chaos Dungeons, you can complete two Guardian Raids per day per character. Again, having a second character in the endgame is beneficial.
You can see one of the Guardian Raids in this video:

What are Void Dungeons? Unlike Chaos Dungeons and Guardian Raids, you can only do the particularly difficult Void Dungeons three times a week, no matter how many characters you have.
Void Dungeons are really difficult PvE content, where you have to battle your way through tough dungeons in a group while gradually learning the mechanics of the bosses.
It’s completely normal for you to fail more often than win at the beginning. The Void Dungeons are hard and require practice, but they also bring you the best rewards and a sense of triumph when you can conquer them.

For all of these activities, there are also daily and weekly quests that you can easily take along while playing. These quests provide additional rewards on top of the already good rewards from the activities. Among other things, you can obtain rare emeralds from the quests that help you improve your gear score.
What else is there to do?
The PvP is fun but doesn’t yield much: Of course, you can also dive into PvP once you are level 50 and have reached the endgame. However, fighting against other players hardly advances your character, but it is a lot of fun.
You fight in PvP with normalized equipment, meaning that no one has an advantage due to better gear. You will then face each other in various game modes and fight for victory.
There are also daily and weekly quests for PvP, but besides those, the rewards in player-versus-player mode are scarce.
The Adventure Island: Events take place regularly on the Adventure Island, in which you can participate and thus earn a few rewards. These activities, which are usually more fun, can only be completed once a day.
Flirt for your life: Five times a day you can interact with certain NPCs and thus improve your relationship with them. Depending on the NPC, this varies. Some you must reveal your feelings to, others you will need to sing a song to. Others want gifts from you.
No matter what they want, you can give it to them up to 5 times a day and receive a better relationship with them in return. The better your relationship is, the more rewards they will give you.
Exploration is also worthwhile: At the beginning of Lost Ark, you receive your Adventure Journal. You can fill this step by step by visiting special places, defeating special bosses, and finding the hidden Mokoko seeds in the world.
As the book fills up, you will gradually receive more rewards. So it is definitely worth paying a little more attention to the world around you.
The Adventure Journal is waiting to be filled.
Reputation quests yield big rewards: Similar to the daily and weekly quests, you can expect reputation quests. You should always keep an eye on these special tasks as they provide you with many rewards when you level up your reputation.
You will find them in the same window as the weekly and daily tasks. The extra click here can give you a significant advantage.
What about life skills and housing? For life skills, like chopping wood, mining stones, or fishing, you only have limited energy. You start with a total of 10,000 energy for these activities.
However, you only recharge 4,320 of those points within 24 hours. If you want to farm as efficiently as possible, you should make sure to use at least 4,320 points each day so that you always start the new day with maximum possibilities.
It is similar with your island. You also have limited energy there to perform tasks or send your people on missions. Here you can consume about 1,500 a day, which then recharges in 24 hours.
For maximum yield, you should also take care of your island daily. Exciting loot awaits you here as well.
In Lost Ark’s housing, you can organize your own island.
PvE slaughter without dungeon: Once per day per character, you can also face the powerful field bosses. These are particularly strong enemies that simply appear somewhere in the world. However, you need several players to take them down. And a whole lot of time.
The rewards from the bosses are adjusted to the level of the area. So it is only somewhat beneficial to defeat a level 20 boss at level 60, but it is fun.
The ghost ship, a PvE event that you can do once a week, also brings fun, rewards, and slaughter.
Abyssal Dungeons and Legion Raids: The new content introduced in our version with the update to Tier 3 only comes at the end of the endgame, as you need a relatively high gear score to play them. Briefly described, the two modes are similar to what you already know from raids and dungeons – only harder and better.
What would you say, do you like the outlook on the endgame of Lost Ark or is there not really anything here that appeals to you? Have you perhaps already played the Russian version and have some suggestions on what else to do after reaching level 50? Feel free to write it to us in the comments here at MeinMMO.
Dying Light 2 is full of Easter eggs. Some of them are even really useful, like the secret weapons provided by a hidden NPC. They are inspired by the crazy Mantis Blades from Cyberpunk 2077.
Spoiler alert: Here you read information about Dying Light 2 that you might discover yourself. However, they are not relevant to the story.
What kind of weapon is that? In line with the totally ridiculous finger gun in Dying Light 2, you can also obtain special melee weapons in the game. The “Cyber Hands 2177” are actually just modified brass knuckles, but you can attach two long, sharp blades to your fists.
The weapon is based on a special weapon from Cyberpunk 2077. In the sci-fi adventure, you can enhance your body with implants, including so-called Mantis Blades. You can simply retract these hidden swords from your arms when needed and slice through enemies.
Both the name of the weapon in Dying Light 2 and its implementation are a nod to Cyberpunk 2077. The studios of both games are from Poland, and CD Projekt Red, the creators of Cyberpunk 2077, congratulated the Dying Light creators Techland upon release (via Twitter).
What makes the blades perhaps even more exciting is the fact that you can craft them – infinitely. You also get them from a unique NPC – from the Terminator himself. Or at least from someone inspired by him.
What you need to do: As soon as you are far enough in the story to enter the VNC Tower in the Central Loop, make your way to its roof. From there, jump down and use your glider or your flying broom to reach the roof with the military drop next door.
From there, head to the “Office Plaza”. There you will find a hidden NPC, the Liquidator. He is apparently already an Easter egg himself and a nod to the Terminator, as GameStar reader SeeBaerAD explains. A hint to this, besides his name: he is looking for a woman named Connor.
If you speak to the Liquidator, he disappears after the dialogue. However, he leaves behind the blueprint for the Cyber Hands 2177 at his fire. Pick it up and you can craft the blades for 379 parts (“Scrap”).
In the video by YouTuber Punish, you can see the entire path in moving images:

I can’t find the NPC – What to do? Make sure you haven’t finished the main story yet. It’s best to seek out the Liquidator as soon as you can enter the VNC Tower.
According to some reports, the Liquidator is not supposed to appear anymore once you have “completed” the game. Alternatively, you can try joining a public game or a friend’s co-op session who hasn’t finished yet. Here we explain how to play Dying Light 2 in co-op.
How strong the blades actually are, we can’t say yet. You might have trouble against larger hordes of zombies, especially if your stamina hasn’t reached maximum yet. However, you can make it easier for yourself by expanding your combat style with a single, overly strong skill:
Lost Ark launched on Steam today. There were many issues with the download and long wait times. We now know that over 400,000 players were online at the same time. The trend is currently even rising.
How many players does Lost Ark have? According to an initial report from the analysis website SteamDB, Lost Ark currently has 467,545 concurrent players.
The MMORPG officially launched at 6:00 PM, but there were numerous issues with the download. In addition, new players are still flooding in, and the primetime in America will not be reached for several hours.
The player count will therefore increase. Additionally, currently only pre-order players can log in. Another peak could be reached on Friday when the Free2Play version is also released.
How do the numbers compare? New World reached over 700,000 concurrent players about three hours after release but did not have issues with downloads. However, there were very long wait times back then. New World peaked with over 900,000 players over the weekend.
However, the numbers at the head start are already significantly higher than the head of Lost Ark expected.
The director hoped for 200,000 concurrent players in the West
What did the director say? The Game Director of Lost Ark mentioned at a fair for the MMORPG in December that he wants to achieve 200,000 concurrent players for the western release. After the first three months, about 50,000 to 70,000 players should still be actively playing Lost Ark.
He emphasized that Smilegate plans to retain players long-term and continuously attract new players. Lost Ark should build its success and not just benefit from a short hype moment.
This short hype moment seems to have already occurred. Because not only on Steam, Lost Ark is already successful. It is also currently the most-watched game on Twitch:
Lost Ark is finally live, and the first players can test the western version of the MMORPG. We at MeinMMO took a closer look at the shop and reveal what exactly is in it.
Update February 8: We have updated the information about the shop in line with the release. We will be covering the release with a live ticker.
What’s in the shop? Lost Ark is a free-to-play MMORPG, primarily funded through the real-money shop in the game. This has been criticized because there was some pay-to-win in Korea. Now that the game is live, we can finally take a look at the western version.
The shop there offers the following contents:
2 armor skins
Various skins for mounts, companions, and ships
Items for housing
Tickets for expanding character slots, name changes, and appearance adjustments
The Crystalline Aura, a buff for 30 days that brings various bonuses, similar to ESO+
Phoenix Feathers, an item that allows you to resurrect. This does not work in raids.
Item bags that provide materials or upgrade items
Tickets that allow you to complete daily quests immediately
Pets that grant you stat bonuses and auto-loot
Depending on the definition, some of the mentioned contents fall under the banner of pay-to-win. The material bags directly provide materials for crafting or stones for upgrading equipment. The tickets for Unas Tasks, which allow you to complete daily quests immediately, or the pets also fall under this.
What’s particularly nasty is that the offers for material bags only last for 6 hours. After that, they automatically change, and other items can be purchased.
However, it’s important to distinguish between the currencies in the Lost Ark shop, one of which can also be exchanged for in-game gold.
This is what the shop with its two currencies looks like in Europe.
Lost Ark lets you buy almost everything for in-game currency
What currencies are available in the Lost Ark shop? There are two currencies in the shop:
Royal Crystals can only be purchased for real money
Blue Crystals can be exchanged for Royal Crystals or in-game currency
The Blue Crystals work similarly to the gems in Guild Wars 2. Player A can offer gold and buy Blue Crystals from Player B. Player B can, if no Blue Crystals are available, use Royal Crystals, thus indirectly buying gold from Player A with real money.
However, Player A will always receive the converted value in Blue Crystals. You cannot buy Royal Crystals directly from other players.
However, the currency exchange is currently disabled, so we can’t say exactly how much the items cost in in-game currency. However, we will include a screenshot from the Russian version of the game:
This is what the auction house looks like for exchanging gold for Blue Crystals.
What do the currencies mean exactly? Everything that is offered for Blue Crystals can also be bought with in-game currency.
However, exclusive items that are only available with Royal Crystals, and thus for real money, include items for adjusting the appearance of characters, additional character slots, and name changes, as well as mount skins.
Items like the Crystalline Aura, Phoenix Feathers, or material bags are available for Blue Crystals and thus indirectly also for in-game currency.
How does the Crystalline Aura work? For 30 days, you will receive several bonuses, including free fast travel, reduced times for crafting, research or from the Song of Return, Bifröst will get 2 additional slots and lower fees for overseas vessels.
It costs 420 Gems. There is also a package for 180 days, which currently costs 50 Euros.
How do the Pets work? The pets provide you with a bonus on a specific stat. However, you can re-roll these stats using Blue Crystals.
In addition, pets provide auto-loot and offer other small conveniences. However, these only last for 30 days before you must reactivate them with Blue Crystals.
How much does the Lost Ark shop cost?
With the release, there is now the opportunity to sell Royal Crystals in the shop. They cost:
1,000 – 9.99 Euros
2,200 – 19.99 Euros
5,750 – 49.99 Euros
12,000 – 99.99 Euros
Contents for Royal Crystals:
Character adjustments cost 900 Royal Crystals
One character slot costs 900 Royal Crystals
Name changes cost 1,800 Royal Crystals
Mounts cost 1,400 Royal Crystals, a special skin even costs 2,300
200 Blue Crystals can be obtained for 500 Royal Crystals; 3,600 Blue Crystals for 8,700 Royal Crystals (minimal discount)
Contents for Blue Crystals:
Crystalline Aura costs 420 Blue Crystals for 30 days
Housing decorations cost between 50 and 250 Blue Crystals
Ship skins cost between 365 and 410 Blue Crystals
100 tickets to complete daily quests cost 1,120 Blue Crystals
100x Phoenix Feathers for resurrection at the spot cost 820 Blue Crystals
The chests for materials cost between 18 and 199 Blue Crystals
What do you think about the Lost Ark shop? Do you find the contents acceptable, or do you see it as pay-to-win? Is the shop generally an interesting topic for you, or would you rather play free-to-play? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments here at MeinMMO.

The huge 4X strategy game Crusader Kings 3 is getting its first DLC today, on February 8, 2022. With Royal Court, new game mechanics are introduced that can entertain you even when you’re not playing – for instance, on Twitch.
What kind of game is this? Crusader Kings 3 is a strategy game from Paradox. The studio is known for its massive, sometimes overwhelming games with dozens of mechanics that all interlock.
You play various rulers in Europe, Asia, and Africa around the Mediterranean during the Crusades from the 9th to the 15th century. Through intrigues, wars, and diplomacy, you try to build your empire and write history as you see fit.
Crusader Kings 3 is considered extremely complex with mechanics such as religion, court intrigues, and succession, which can be quite opaque and can ruin your entire game save with a wrong decision.
By the way, Crusader Kings 3 is one of the favorite games of our editor-in-chief Gerd Schuhmann:
Why is Crusader Kings 3 interesting now? Today, on February 8, 2022, the first major DLC for Crusader Kings 3 is released. Royal Court focuses entirely on cultures and even adds a sort of role-playing component to the game. The DLC brings, for example:
Languages you can learn and even unlearn
A throne room with exhibited relics and the new “Splendor” mechanic
Judiciary in your own throne room
Same-sex marriages
Cultural mixing as a new feature along with cultural traditions for each people
To outsiders or beginners, the new content may sound even more confusing. But for at least one platform, all of this is ideal: for Twitch.

New possibilities and completely different ways to play with Royal Court
That’s why Royal Court is interesting for Twitch: Crusader Kings 3 can also be played in multiplayer rounds. Here, several players play with or against each other.
The new features all have great conflict potential. If you do not speak the same language as other characters, it gives a natural penalty on their opinion of you, and cultures have the potential to stir up a conflict.
Moreover, the throne room and languages provide the opportunity for built-in role-playing. If streamers fully embody their characters – like in GTA Online – then Crusader Kings 3 promises interesting dialogues from now on.
It will be exciting to see who plans a murder plot against their fellow player or tries to assimilate their culture. Particularly amusing will be questions like: “Can someone teach me High German or Bavarian?” How it’s done right is shown, for example, by the preview event of Twitch streamer Shurjoka.
When does the DLC come out? Since 6:00 PM German time, you can purchase Royal Court for €29.99 on Steam. The game will also be available on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on March 29.
With just over 20,000 players simultaneously on Steam, Crusader Kings 3 is more of a niche title. Nevertheless, it’s worth a look – whether you play yourself or not. However, if you dare to enter the medieval world, here are some beginner tips for you:
Even before the release kicked off, the game was actively streamed on Twitch – and evidently found an interested audience. Because: before the clock struck 6:00 PM, over 753,000 viewers were already watching live (as of 5:59 PM, February 8).
This placed Lost Ark ahead of the Just Chatting category (about 600,000 viewers) and significantly ahead of other games like GTA Online (about 180,000), League of Legends (about 180,000) and Valorant (about 150,000).
Numbers continue to rise: At exactly 6:00 PM, Lost Ark even broke the 800,000 viewer mark, by 6:06 PM there were over 900,000, and the game hit the million at 6:15 PM. The trend is clearly rising on release night.
On Twitch, Lost Ark was in first place on release night (via Twitch)
What can you see in Lost Ark?
This is Lost Ark: Lost Ark is a free-to-play MMORPG from an isometric perspective. It fundamentally resembles games like Diablo and offers dungeons, raids, shipbuilding and sailing, housing and various PvP elements. It is controlled with a mouse and keyboard.
A total of 15 different classes are available at launch for you to choose from. The game is fully localized in Germany and even features a German voiceover.
In addition to the general interest in the game, the exciting Twitch Drops are likely playing a role in the high numbers on Twitch. Currently, the event “Legends of Lost Ark” is running, which can unlock various rewards for viewers. Among other things, there are chests with in-game currency, skin parts, and pets and mounts. The event will run throughout February.
