Path of Exile 2 shows new gameplay – Looks like strong competition for Diablo 4

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 4 minutes

To Path of Exile 2, a new trailer and 20 minutes of gameplay have been released. The action RPG impresses with its gameplay as well as its beautiful graphics. Thus, it becomes a strong competitor to Diablo 4.

What can be seen in the videos? The trailer and the gameplay focus on the second of a total of seven acts that Path of Exile 2 is supposed to have. In this, the player follows his enemies through a desert, which is also the main hub of the act.

Throughout the gameplay, the scenery changes, so the player also has to fight through a cave and ancient ruins. Various weapons, enemies, and a miniboss are shown.

The beautiful graphics of the game immediately catch the eye. Especially the lighting, particle effects, and the general environments look great. In addition, there are sound effects perfectly matched to the actions.

Sound and graphics are also praised by viewers below the video.

Better Boss Fights and a New Gem System

What can be inferred from the video? In the 20 minutes, you can not only admire the environment, the fights, and the enemies, but also get some general information about Path of Exile 2:

  • The act 2 of Path of Exile 2 will not be linear. Thus, there are 4 quests shown in the video that players can complete in any order.
  • Mobility seems to play a big role. The player has to dodge repeatedly to avoid dying. With the spear, there is a skill that allows one to jump into enemies and then jump back out again.
  • In general, various skills of spear and crossbow are presented.
  • The bosses in the game are supposed to become more varied and, for example, interact more strongly with their environment. In the gameplay, there was a miniboss who collapsed a cave. At the same time, sunlight enters the cave, marking safe spots in the fight.

Another major innovation compared to its predecessor is in the game’s gem system. Previously linked to armor pieces, this meant that one had to go to a town after getting a new armor drop to rearrange the sockets and adapt them to the current build.

In Path of Exile 2, they are now detached from the equipment.

How are the reactions to the gameplay? The official gameplay video has over 63,000 views after just 12 hours and has been commented on more than 600 times. The comments are mostly positive:

  • The user Seriöser Kanalname is particularly impressed by the graphics: “The visuals look stunning and the art style of PoE never disappoints. I especially love the contrast between the relatively muted desert background and the colorful spell effects and the blood.”
  • The user Guillaume BProg noticed a special detail: “Did anyone else notice that the UI and HUD reflect the different light effects? I’ve never seen this kind of detail in a game before. Very cute.”
  • Rhyas9 is pleased with the gameplay changes: “Skill gems that are tied to the character and not to items. The one change I’ve longed for all these years.”

A special highlight that users discovered on reddit is the permanent health point display for bosses. This is also received very positively by many.

Criticism is generally only aimed at the fact that the player character with the crossbow keeps shouting what kind of bolts he is using.

Path of Exile 2 is set to release in 2022 and will be strong competition for Diablo 4

What is Path of Exile 2 anyway? Path of Exile 2 is not a successor in the traditional sense, as it shares much content with its predecessor. It mainly expands the existing Path of Exile and overhauls many old game systems, including the equipment and classes.

The game is set to release in 2022, although there is still no exact release timeframe. Path of Exile 2 will be Free2Play.

Why is the game a competitor for Diablo 4? Path of Exile is known for its complex skill system and the many regular updates that the first part has received. In this, and in the fact that they are building on the first part, the head of Grinding Gear Games, Chris Wilson, sees a big advantage.

Especially the balancing, the design of the classes, and the mentioned skill system are already based on an existing game that has proven itself. Diablo 4, on the other hand, comes with completely new content that has not been tested as intensively.

With the new gameplay of Path of Exile 2, the developers have also shown that they can operate on a higher graphical level than was the case with the first part.

Diablo 4 Rogue Huntress Title Campfire
In Diablo 4, the new class Rogue was announced at the BlizzCon.

2022 could potentially see a showdown between the two games, even though it is still unclear when the release of Diablo 4 is planned. Both titles already launch with a certain fanbase and both are ambitious. For ARPG fans, this can only be a good thing.

However, for those who can’t wait until then, here on MeinMMO, you can find a long list of other action RPGs that you can play until the release of both titles: Games like Diablo – Here are 11 current alternatives.

Destiny 2 nerfs your best weapons in the “never-ending search for balance”

Philipp Hansen Philipp Hansen Reading time 2 minutes

Season 14 of Destiny 2 is starting soon, and Bungie is now showing some harsh nerfs that you should prepare for. Hand cannons, shotguns, and swords are in for some changes.

What you should expect: Season 14, which is still unnamed, will start on May 11, 2021, in Destiny 2. The MMO shooter will receive new content as well as numerous balance adjustments. Bungie has now given a preview of some harsh nerfs that are in store for many of your favorite weapons.

Bungie wants to communicate the changes to swords, hand cannons, shotguns, and strong perks early, so you can prepare for them. They will talk about buffs in April that will also come in Season 14.

MeinMMO lists the most important nerfs. We explain why this is happening and why it’s the revenge of the weapon standby.

Why do we say nerf? When something is nerfed in a game, it becomes worse than it was before. This is supposed to relate to the toy weapons of the company NERF, which fire foam projectiles that do not harm anyone (via esports.com). After a nerf, players have safer (or less harmful) weapons or skills at their disposal.
The opposite of a nerf is a buff. A buffed item is represented as stronger after the patch. This refers to the English word “to buff,” meaning “to polish something.”

Destiny 2 reveals the nerfs you will have to live with in Season 14

What happens to hand cannons: Guardians have preferred to run around with revolvers for years. Hand cannons are almost always meta in PvP. However, the dominant 120s are now getting nerfed:

  • The distance at which damage and aim assist reduction starts will be reduced by 2 to 4 meters (depending on range stat).
  • This effectively partially reverses the range buff that 120s received in “Beyond Light”.

The slowly firing 120s have only recently become meta, since their range was significantly increased in November 2020. Representatives like The Last Dollar, Igneous Hammer, or Storm have quickly risen to become some of the most popular primary weapons in PvP. One shot could take half of an opponent’s health, quickly ducking for cover, all from absurd distances – that is (or was) the playstyle of revolvers.

For the currently best 120, Guardians grind through a previously unpopular playlist:

Dr Disrespect publishes memoirs, suspects fraud in New York Times bestseller list

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 3 minutes

Guy “Dr Disrespect” Beahm is a well-known figure in gaming and was previously active on the streaming platform Twitch. He has now written a book about his life. However, it does not appear on the New York Times bestseller list, even though it is supposedly sold out everywhere.

What is going on? Dr Disrespect released his memoirs “Violence. Speed. Momentum.” at the end of March. The streamer has been heavily promoting this book on social media, YouTube, and in his livestreams over the past few weeks, emphasizing the great interest in it.

However, the New York Times has published a new bestseller list for April. Dr Disrespect’s book is not among the top 15.

Therefore, the streamer suspects fraud and is expressing this on social media.

“You are some damn frauds”

What does the streamer say? In a tweet, Dr Disrespect vents his anger. He claims that a new book in the top 15 bestsellers is one that has supposedly sold less than 5,000 copies. However, it is unclear which book this is, as there are four new titles added.

His memoirs are said to have been pre-ordered more often on the first day after the announcement than this mentioned book. According to the streamer, “millions” have shown interest in his memoirs, and the pre-orders are said to have skyrocketed.

Therefore, he referred to the New York Times as frauds.

Additionally, there was another tweet, which has since been deleted, in which Dr Disrespect claims that his book is said to have sold five times more than one of the new books in the top 15.

He apparently expected a spot on the bestseller list.

Dr Disrespect Tweet
This tweet has since been deleted (Image source: Dexerto).

How successful were the sales really? It’s hard to estimate. What is certain is that Dr Disrespect has a very large community and many followers on social media:

  • More than 2 million accounts follow him on Twitter
  • He has 3.3 million subscribers on YouTube
  • He has slightly more than 300,000 followers on Facebook

For several months, the streamer has been promoting his book and referred to it in February as the “most anticipated book of the century”.

However, he is also not appearing on other bestseller lists, such as Amazon or Publishers Weekly.

Dr Disrespect complains and polarizes in his usual manner

Why is the fuss not surprising? Dr Disrespect is a character. He is known for his high production quality, his fits of rage, and the many running gags. The man behind it, Guy Beahm, is just playing a role.

In 2019, however, he went too far and filmed himself throughout the entire E3, even while he was in the restroom. He later apologized for that. But he also likes to get upset about things, such as new updates in Call of Duty or other streamers.

Dr Disrespect is known for polarizing and provoking others. This time, it targeted the New York Times. This also brings him more publicity, which could boost the sales of the book, regardless of how much interest there has been so far.

More about Dr Disrespect on MeinMMO:

What is the book even about? The book’s blurb already promises a crazy story about the life of Dr Disrespect, which will certainly contain some true stories, but also many “embellishments”.

Specifically, it is supposed to be about the creation of the character along with an “unprecedented look at his rise to streaming superstar.”

You can expect plenty of references and jokes aimed primarily at his viewers and which will likely be hard to understand if you’re not within the realm of YouTube, Twitch, or the Doctor himself.

However, there is still a big mystery surrounding Dr Disrespect. It revolves around his Twitch ban, which was enacted in 2020. Recently, there was a new hot rumor about the topic:

New survival game comes exclusively for PS5 – already instills fear in the trailer

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 2 minutes

PlayStation has announced a new survival game exclusively for PlayStation 5. Abandoned is set to utilize the performance of the next-gen console and provide more immersion with the new DualSense controller. The game is set to release in 2021, and there is already a first trailer.

What kind of game is this? Abandoned is a story-driven shooter and survival simulation in first person, heavily focused on realism. The gameplay is intended to be slow and feel tactical, not fast like an action shooter.

Abandoned is being developed by Blue Box Game Studios, who previously tried their hand at horror games like The Haunting (via IGN). However, The Haunting is now being developed and published by another studio and is set to release on April 27 (via Steam).

Abandoned will be released in the fourth quarter of 2021 exclusively for PlayStation 5. A specific release date has not yet been announced.

What is it about? The story unfolds around the protagonist Jason Longfield, who wakes up alone in a forest and has to survive. You find out that you were kidnapped and are to be subjected to a “dark purpose,” which is not described in detail yet.

In an initial trailer, the narrator already tries to instill fear in the viewer. She suggests loneliness and helplessness, asking what one would do if one were to become prey and somehow has to survive. The stunning visuals enhance the immersion:

Link to the YouTube content

The actual gameplay has not been shown much yet. Game Director Hasan Kahraman promises, however, that a full gameplay video will be released “soon.”

“Realism through immersion”

What makes Abandoned special? Already in the trailer, it is apparent that Abandoned relies on visuals and stunning imagery. The environment is detailed and realistic. The scenes resemble a survival simulation more than an ordinary survival game.

The graphics are expected to be supported by the performance of the PS5. The motion capture is said to be playable in 4K resolution at 60 FPS. The developers want to ensure that “the environmental quality is as close to reality as possible.” Load screens are to be kept minimal.

Additionally, the developers want to take advantage of the new DualSense of PlayStation 5. Every interaction should be felt through the controller, such as when you are hit by a bullet.

When you pull the trigger, you should feel a difference between loaded and unloaded weapons. If you try to shoot while you are out of breath, aiming becomes less precise.

More on the topic at MeinMMO:

Is there a multiplayer? Currently, there is no information on whether Abandoned will be a purely single-player title or if it can also be played together in co-op or even against each other in multiplayer.

The first images featuring a single protagonist suggest it may be a solo title, although The Forest has a similar setting. The Forest can be played with friends, so it is also possible that Abandoned has a co-op mode as well.

The sequel to The Forest, Sons of the Forest, is part of the 7 new survival games to look forward to in 2021.

Outriders brings first major patch, rewarding you for the server issues

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 4 minutes

The developers of Outriders have announced server maintenance for Thursday, April 8, 2021. Along with the announcement, they also revealed that the first major patch is coming. This patch is set to fix several bugs and issues – including a particularly nasty bug that can delete all equipment.

What kind of update is this? With the first major update for Outriders, numerous bugs that have caused problems since the launch on April 1 will be fixed. The main points in the update are:

This is the first real update. Previously, there were minor hotfixes that only addressed specific issues.

When will the update be released? The developers mention that the update is expected to be released “next week”, likely between April 12 and 16. Apparently, the patch will come for all platforms, but it is still unclear whether it will be released at the same time.

Another server maintenance took place today, on April 8, between 6:30 PM and 6:45 PM. However, this has no direct connection with the major update.

Server Maintenance and Patch Notes – What’s included in the upcoming update

What’s included in the update: The upcoming first major patch brings a number of bug fixes. We have summarized the most important ones for you here:

  • Stuttering when using DirectX 11 and 12 should disappear (PC)
  • Diverse crashes should no longer occur, such as in multiplayer, during the mission “A Bad Day” or at startup. Also, random crashes should be less frequent.
  • The HUD should no longer disappear spontaneously
  • Crossplay will be re-enabled when all platforms have the same version.

Additionally, a bug that leads to equipment loss will be fixed or at least reduced. You can find the complete patch notes in the developers’ post (via Steam and reddit).

What exactly is this bug? Until recently, there was a bug that caused players to lose their entire inventory. This primarily occurred when they tried to join the lobbies of other players.

A crash then caused the entire inventory to vanish and the character was left naked. Even after some issues with co-op were resolved, it was advisable to still play solo during this time.

This issue is expected to be fixed with the update, and players who have lost their inventory will receive a restoration of all lost items. The restoration is set to take place in the coming weeks.

Balancing and Nerfs for Some Classes

These are the balancing adjustments: In addition to bug fixes, there will be new balancing. The repeatable gathering quests (Hunter, Bounty, and Historian) will no longer reward you with legendary items when completed multiple times.

Furthermore, it will be harder to reach the highest rank in some of the expeditions. Expeditions are the endgame content of Outriders, which many players repeat to farm loot.

There will also be adjustments to the classes. Many of the so-called “Bullet Builds” that rely on a skill that enhances shots will be nerfed. One of these builds is the Technomancer’s Pest Control build, which is considered top-tier. According to our readers on MeinMMO, these changes are apparently already live.

The Technomancer is currently apparently too strong.

Which classes are affected? According to the developers, especially Assassins and Technomancers have been able to gain significant advantages from the builds without having to invest much. This should now become more balanced, but it remains to be seen how strong the changes will be.

The devs emphasize that the balancing is managed by a separate team. Progress on working on the patch is not affected by balancing and does not influence the elimination of bugs.

More about Outriders on MeinMMO:

Developers’ Apology Package for the Botched Launch

This gift you will receive: The developers also apologize in the patch notes for the problems at launch, especially for connection errors that often led to disconnects. For these problems, there is a gift for all affected players:

  • a legendary weapon (according to character level)
  • Titan (amount according to character level)
  • the emote “Frustration”, which cannot currently be obtained in any other way

Every player who played between March 31 and April 11 or lost their inventory due to a crash will receive such a package. The rewards will be credited to the character with the highest level.

What’s next? In the coming weeks and patches, further work will continue on the stability and connection for multiplayer. So you should soon finally be able to play properly with friends.

Until then, you can also try your new weapons from the apology package solo. If you are not satisfied with the weapon you received, you can also definitely obtain other legendaries:

GTA Online is currently giving you a sports car – But hurry up

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 3 minutes

In GTA Online, the event week changes every Thursday. In the next 7 days, you can secure a free car and earn another one through the lucky wheel.

This is what’s happening in the game: A new event week is currently running in GTA Online. This week comes with the sports car Tropos Rallye from the company Lampadati for free. It usually costs 816,000 GTA Dollars.

Additionally, as part of the event:

  • Free Jock Cranley suits
  • A new car at the podium
  • Extra bonuses for GTA$ in certain activities

Get your free sports car

Here’s how to get the Lampadati Tropos Rallye: The free car can be claimed by any player who logs in during the event time. Here’s what you need to do:

  • Visit “Travel and Transport”
  • Select the dealer “Southern San Andreas Super Autos”
  • You will find the car available for $0

You have until Wednesday, April 14, 2021, to do this. Additionally, tuning will still cost money afterwards.

Tropos Rallye GTA 5
You can currently get this car completely for free.

How good is the car? The Lampadati Tropos Rallye is a two-door sports car. Compared to other models, it is rather mediocre.

Its potential doesn’t necessarily lie on pure asphalt tracks, but its very precise handling makes it more suitable for off-road tracks. It’s not an absolute highlight, but still fun. This is also confirmed by players on reddit:

  • Swordwizzard1011 writes: “I’ve been waiting for a deal on this car for a long time. It’s even better now that I get it for $0.”
  • Classic-Display-4321 also uses it as a rally car: “I bought one a long time ago and went fully into rally style with it. If I get another one now, I might use a street build for it.”
  • AvengerAssembled is really satisfied with the Tropos Rallye: “Great little car. Brings me a lot of fun.”

However, the Tropos Rallye has a slight tendency to oversteer. You should keep this in mind if you want to take the car out.

If you are looking for a really fast car, you will find it in our list of the fastest cars in GTA Online. We have also created such a list for the fastest motorcycles.

What else is new in GTA 5 Online?

What has changed at the podium: Along with the event week, the podium in the casino has also changed. Now, the Blista Kanjo is waiting for you as a reward. You get it if you land on the car field during the lucky wheel spin.

Fortnite: Tame the Wild in Season 6 – Here’s how

MGG MGG Reading time 2 minutes

“Tame the Wild” is a challenge from Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6. This challenge is part of the Week 4 challenges and grants XP for your Battle Pass.

What kind of task is this? This task is one of the “Week 4” challenges in Fortnite Season 6. You need to tame wild animals on one occasion. Simply put, you need to tame a wild boar, a wolf, or a dino somewhere on the island. There are different ways to approach this, depending on what devices you have on hand. The first step is, of course, to find animals that can be tamed.

Where can you find wild animals?

At these locations, you should encounter wild animals
  • Dark blue markings indicate wolves
  • Orange markings indicate wild boars

Frogs and chickens cannot be tamed, so it doesn’t make sense to focus on these animals. Note that taming velociraptors is also possible, although their spawns are much more random than other animal species. The wild boar spawn in the southern pen of Colossal Crops is highly recommended for completing the task quickly.

How to tame animals?

What do you need to do? There are various techniques to tame wild animals. The easiest way is to wear a hunter cloak, which is made from a piece of meat and animal bones. Once you have this item in your possession, you just need to put on the cloak and approach the wild animals carefully to tame them.

You can also lure them with food. Wolves love fresh meat: If you throw something near them, you can easily tame them once they are attracted to it.

Wild boars love fruits, vegetables, and mushrooms. You can gather these foods from gardener boxes or in the wild and then throw them near the wild boars. Just like wolves, they will become tame.

Twitch will now investigate allegations of rape like in WoW itself

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 3 minutes

Twitch has announced that it will now conduct its own investigations when there is a suspicion that streamers on the platform are involved in serious legal violations. For this, Twitch will also cooperate with external investigators. This comes after allegations against Twitch streamers increased in 2020: The worst accusation circulated against a player from the WoW guild Method.

Twitch wants to change that: Twitch will now begin to penalize violations that occur outside the platform when they are directed “against members of the Twitch community.” The streaming service announces this in a blog post (via twitch).

Twitch identifies two types of cases in which it will take action.

If someone is being harassed on Twitch while also being harassed outside of Twitch, they will now closely examine the actions outside of Twitch to get a better overview. For example, if a user is attacked on Twitch and also attacked on Twitter, they will take that into account.

For some particularly serious violations, Twitch will now take action even if they occur completely outside the platform. These include:

  • Application of lethal or extreme violence
  • Terorr-related activities or recruiting people for it
  • Explicit or credible threat of mass violence (e.g., implying to commit an attack on an event or a group of people)
  • Membership in a hate group
  • The execution or participation in rapes or sexual assaults
  • Any action that affects the safety of the Twitch community
  • Explicit or credible threats against Twitch or Twitch staff

“Highly regarded investigative partners” will discreetly investigate allegations

This is how Twitch plans to do it: They say that at the moment, they have the data to track everything that happens on Twitch itself. However, they cannot investigate anything that happens completely off Twitch. But Twitch apparently wants to change that.

It is said that they have engaged “highly regarded investigative partners” to work with Twitch. This is a law firm specializing in such investigations, particularly concerning sexual discrimination or sexual assaults. The firm will handle the cases in a way that treats all involved parties discreetly and respectfully.

von Schuhmann

Through this partnership, Twitch will be able to pursue cases that occur outside of Twitch.

It is said that while the investigation is ongoing, no actions will be taken against streamers – only after the investigation is completed.

WoW Method.v1
The guild Method disbanded in 2020 due to allegations of rape.

What would be an example of such an offense? In 2019, there was a case that later caused a stir. There were suspicions that a member of the large WoW raid guild “Method” had sexually harassed a streamer with whom he had streamed from his apartment:

  • Twitch banned the streamer at that time but did not initiate any further action
  • His guild Method believed the streamer that he had done nothing and allowed him to remain in the guild. They even offered to advocate for his unban with Twitch.

A year later, the woman who was with him stated that the streamer had raped her. She reported it, but the police could not establish anything.

The situation created a scandal that ultimately led to the disbandment of the large WoW guild. Sponsors and members accused the guild leadership of overlooking the matter.

In the months that followed, there were repeated incidents where Twitch was confronted with allegations that streamers had committed sexual assaults or exchanged sexually suggestive messages with minors.

So far, Twitch has responded to many of these cases with a permanent ban after the streamer had admitted some form of guilt or partial guilt. For example, they banned the Smash Bros. streamer “ZeRo,” who later attempted suicide.

Apparently, Twitch now wants to take action to specifically address such cases. This sexual harassment often occurs through private messages in chats outside of Twitch.

Twitch apparently wants to take a more active role in allegations

This is what it’s about: We have frequently reported on MeinMMO regarding these cases. The allegations against streamers regarding sexual misconduct often arise via Twitter and are not investigated by the police. However, there is significant pressure that forces Twitch to take action.

Until now, they relied on users’ screenshots or on the streamer confessing. Apparently, they want to take a different role now and actively try to investigate and clarify these allegations.

In June 2020, even Twitch CEO Emmet Shear (featured image) found himself in criticism. There were calls for Amazon to remove him. It was said that Twitch had also overlooked when there were allegations against Twitch staff that they had abused their position to sexually harass women.

The “violence and terrorism” aspect is surely also an important point for Twitch. It seems that Twitch wants to take on greater responsibility. The German ZDF had, for example, indirectly linked the terrorist attack in Halle to Twitch.

In WoW you can currently get rich by standing still for hours

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 3 minutes

In WoW: Shadowlands the Easter event “Noble Garden” is currently happening. If you want, you can become really rich while effectively just standing in one spot and clicking a bit.

What is happening in WoW? Since April 5, the Noble Garden event has been running in World of Warcraft. It sends you to various locations around the world in search of eggs. Players have now discovered that there are several places where the egg hunt can be very effective. This way, you can farm hundreds of eggs in an hour, earn chocolate, pets, and mounts, and become rich.

We show you the location you can still take advantage of until the end of the event.

Effective egg hunting in WoW – The best farming spots

Here you can farm: In the World of Warcraft subreddit, user rob0tparty (via reddit.com) points out his farm spot. The great thing about it is that you don’t have to roam around and hope for egg spawns. You stand still in one spot and don’t need to move. Eggs will appear repeatedly within your radius, which you can click and collect.

The finder writes, “I found a place where you can stand still and reach 5 eggs. If you’re quick and the people leave you alone, you can farm about 10 eggs per minute on average.”

As a tip, he adds to create a /use macro for the eggs. This way you can open them in your inventory with one keystroke while continuing to scan for eggs with your mouse pointer.

The spot is located in the southeast of the ruins of Silvermoon, by the Falcon Watch. We are embedding the video here that shows the exact location and the egg spawns:

Keep in mind that after his reddit post and as a result of the YouTube video, several people might now be waiting at this spot. However, if a player has looted an egg, you can still loot it shortly afterwards. You just have to be quick.

How to get rich from this?

This is what you can do: If you are after the achievements from the event and want to buy all the rewards, you can do that with this farm spot with just a few hours of effort. That’s already generously estimated. To buy all the event items from the vendor, you need 1150 pieces of chocolate, which you get from the collected eggs.

The mount costs 500 chocolate pieces, and the rare pet only costs 200.

  • WoW Noble Garden Rewards 1
  • WoW Noble Garden Rewards 2

If you have bought everything you want to keep, you can now begin to profit.

  • Farm the eggs at the effective farming spot
  • Go to the vendor and buy a valuable item like the mount and the Noble Garden rabbit
  • Sell it now or at a later time in the auction house

If you want to earn gold quickly, you can sell the Swift Springstrider or the Noble Garden rabbit immediately in the auction house. Prices for these may vary depending on the realm.

WoW Noble Garden Pet Mount Sale Auction House Prices Profit
With my character on Blackrock, I could earn this much gold for mount and pet

This way, you can quickly earn a lot of gold just by standing around and clicking, and if you sell at good prices, you can become rich quickly. If you don’t have time pressure, then wait for a few weeks or months. After the end of the event, the prices for these Easter event items usually rise again.

Pokémon GO: How to make the most of Community Day with Serpifeu

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 3 minutes

In Pokémon GO starts this Sunday, April 11th, with the Community Day featuring Serpifeu. We will show you all the bonuses and tell you how to take advantage of it.

What is a Community Day? This event takes place once a month in Pokémon GO. For a whole 6 hours, a special Pokémon is in the spotlight and you can encounter it more frequently as a Shiny. Additionally, there’s a bonus that makes the event even more worthwhile.

In April, it’s all about Serpifeu. The Grass starter was already available as a Shiny, but now it gets another big event.

Community Day in April 2021 – Start time and bonuses

What? The Community Day with Serpifeu
When? On Sunday, April 11, 2021, from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM local time.
Pokémon of the Day: Serpifeu will appear more frequently in the wild
Exclusive moves: Flora-Statue
Bonus: Triple Stardust for catching Pokémon
Bonus: Duration of incense increased to three hours
Bonus: You can evolve Efoserp up to 2 hours after the event to allow Serpiroyal to learn the move Flora-Statue.

You will again have a full 6 hours to take advantage of the event. Since the beginning of the Corona pandemic, there has been this extended Community Day so you can play comfortably from home.

What’s in the in-game shop: For the Community Day, you will find some offers in the in-game shop. These include:

  • For one Euro, there’s a special research challenge centered around Serpifeu
  • There’s a Community Day box for 1280 PokéCoins containing 50 Ultra Balls, 4 Lure Modules, and a Premium Raid Pass.

More exciting articles about Pokémon GO

How to make the most of the Community Day

Prepare these items: To play freely during the Community Day, you should stock up on a good supply of balls. We recommend at least 350 balls so you can catch for a while unbothered – even without a PokéStop.

Additionally, you should start with a sorted Pokémon box. If you have little space in your inventory, then constantly sorting will hinder you while playing. Make room for at least 150-200 Pokémon.

These items are worth it during the event: There is triple Stardust for caught Pokémon, so you should definitely use a Star Piece as well. This gives you even 4.5 times the Stardust per Pokémon. A Star Piece lasts for 30 minutes, so you’ll need 12 of these items if you want to play the full 6 hours.

Otherwise, incense is worth it. It lasts a full 3 hours, so you only need 2 of these items to get the full advantage of the event. With incense, you can effectively play from home and do not have to wait for spawns at your doorstep.

Can you also play from home? Due to numerous Corona bonuses and the aforementioned incense, playing from home is very feasible. Just activate your incense and lure a Pokémon every minute. If you play for the full 6 hours, you will catch at least 360 Pokémon.

How worthwhile is the Community Day? The evolution of Serpifeu, Serpiroyal, is one of the weaker starter Pokémon in the game. Even with the move Flora-Statue, it will not be a top attacker in raids. So if you are looking for strong attackers, you can skip the Community Day.

However, Serpifeu also appears more frequently in its shiny form, and if you don’t have enough Shinies yet, you should at least play a little. Additionally, the triple Stardust is always worth it. Stardust is the most important resource in the game, so you can never have enough. When you play, you should definitely take advantage of the Stardust bonus.

This is the story of Serpifeu: The starter Pokémon is considered loyal and well-trained in the Pokémon world. Visually, it resembles a snake, although it has legs and arms. Only in its final evolution Serpiroyal does the snake become clearly recognizable.

Shiny Serpifeu, Efoserp and Serpiroyal

This is what Shinies look like: The Shiny form of Serpifeu is slightly darker than the normal Serpifeu. This color is consistent throughout the evolution line:

Shiny Serpifeu Pokemon GO

How likely is a Shiny? During the Community Day, the chance of a Shiny is about 1 in 25. This is significantly increased, as normal Shinies have a rate of 1 in 450 in the wild. So if you play just a little during the Community Day, you should have good chances for the shiny version.

Are you looking forward to the Community Day or will you take it a bit easier this time? Let us know in the comments!

How to complete “The Legacy of the Outriders” and enter the quarry

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 4 minutes

Lucy tells you to look for Monica for her, who has run away with a Changed. She sends you to the ruins zone.

Outriders Farm Ruins Zone Legacy of the Outriders
You need to go here for the next step.

Where can I find Monica? Talk to Jakub to travel to the ruins zone. If the area has not been unlocked yet, you need to complete more story missions first. But that should generally be done by this point.

In the ruins zone, you need to enter the “Remote Farm” area:

  • enter the tunnel as soon as you arrive in the ruins zone
  • follow the path to the right through the large metal door to the fresh water sources
  • clear the path to the next checkpoint
  • raise your flag and climb the rope up to the right

At the farm, you will find a building that you need to enter. Inside, you will find Monica, who sends you back to Lucy. Return to the lady in Trench Town and you will receive the key to the Outriders’ bunker in the quarry.

Reach the quarry and continue the quest

This is how you reach the quarry: If you play through the quest for the first time, you will not be able to travel to the quarry at this point. Continue with story quests until Jakub brings you to the quarry anyway.

Talk to your driver to begin the journey and take the path directly to your right, up the hill, towards the nesting area. Follow the area to the end, and you will reach the bunker.

If you are further along in the quest and need to go back to the quarry, but can’t, read in the next section further. There we explain how to finish the quest.

Outriders Jakub breaking out Legacy of the Outriders
If you miss this option with Jakub, just keep playing until it becomes available again. You won’t miss anything.

What happens next? In the bunker, you will find clues about the whereabouts of other Outriders. This time, you will need to go to the forest. However, you can only do this after you have progressed far enough in the story.

Collect the lithium for Dr. Zahedi and head to the forest as soon as you can. To do this, talk to Jakub.

Finish the quest – Cross the forest and return to the quarry

This is how you get back to the quarry: Once you arrive in the forest, your truck breaks down, and you are stuck there for now. However, you can still continue The Legacy of the Outriders by talking to Mercer and completing a task for him.

When you return, the quest ends here for now, and you need to go back to the quarry. However, this isn’t possible right now because the truck is broken, and you still have something to do in the forest.

Complete more story missions until you reach the point where a new companion joins you, and you should be able to speak to Jakub again after the fortress. He will take you back to the quarry where you can complete the next step of the quest.

More about Outriders on MeinMMO:

This is how you finish the quest: When you are in the quarry for the second time, the quest continues once again. You need to advance in the story again to explore the remaining areas. We have briefly summarized the further course for you:

  • after returning to the quarry, you should head to the gate
  • you will reach it by continuing to play the story
  • look for Sarah at the Terrible Sculptures at the gate and talk to her
  • return to the bunker in the quarry for the third time
  • open the last door and collect your rewards

A detailed run from start to finish is shown by the YouTuber Sipder:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_Kj4_GjRq8

The side quest is the longest in the game so far and will take you several hours, especially if you are playing it for the first time and have not unlocked all the areas yet. The Legacy of the Outriders is closely linked to the main story that lasts up to 40 hours.

With the guaranteed Legendary, the reward is definitely worth the time investment. Normally, you only find the sought-after items randomly as loot. However, The Legacy of the Outriders is one of the few ways to guarantee such a drop. You can find three more here:

Outriders guarantees legendary weapons – Here’s how to get 3 of them

“The Legacy of the Outriders” is one of the longer quests in the new loot shooter. It guides you through various areas of the world – and you first have to unlock them. Many players wonder how to actually get to the quarry. MeinMMO explains how to reach the area and how to complete the quest.

What kind of quest is this? The Legacy of the Outriders guides you step by step through multiple areas. You can accept the quest quite early, but it will take you a while to complete it for the first time.

With a total of 13 steps, you have a lot to do, but in the end, you can reap a big reward.

What do I get for it? If you play through The Legacy of the Outriders to the end, you are guaranteed to receive a Legendary. By this point in the story, it may not be your first, but the effort will be worth it.

You need to check off the different stations in order and unlock them beforehand. MeinMMO explains how it works.

Warning: This guide contains minor spoilers about the side quest and the background of the Outriders.

The Legacy of the Outriders: Accept the quest in Trench Town

Where do I get the quest? You start The Legacy of the Outriders in Trench Town. As soon as you arrive there, you will see a hanged corpse with a note reading “Outrider” stabbed to its chest with a knife.

The first clue leads you to Lucy, one of the easy girls in the red-light district of Trench Town. Turn around and follow the narrow alley directly behind you to Lucy or use the display from the HUD.

Scopes of the best sniper weapons in CoD Warzone are broken and really unfair

Maik Schneider Maik Schneider Reading time 3 minutes

The mid-season update of Season 2 of Call of Duty: Warzone has changed quite a bit regarding the weapons. However, while the nerfs to the meta weapons were completely understandable, there was a “change” that few people are likely to understand: Some sights of the best snipers are now so broken that they no longer have scope reflection.

What’s going on? Call of Duty: Warzone has done it again. A mechanic that has worked almost seamlessly since the release of Warzone has been destroyed by the mid-season update of Season 2 – the scope reflection of the powerful sniper rifles from Modern Warfare.

It has been known for some time that there are sniper scopes without the so-called “glint”. Some of the scopes from the sniper weapons in Cold War are bugged. Until now, this was only a minor issue because the sniper rifles from CoD MW are still considered by many players to be stronger than the “Cold War” snipers.

Apparently, the weapons from CoD MW have now caught the bug. Snipers like the Kar98k or the HDR are among the most popular and strongest weapons in Warzone – without scope reflection, sniper players have a significant advantage. MeinMMO shows you the details and what the developers have to say about it.

Scope reflection of the strongest Warzone snipers is gone

Why is the missing “glint” a problem? If a sniper player takes aim at you from a great distance, he can take you out with a headshot. Normally, in this scenario, you would have little chance of spotting the enemy before the first shot.

To mitigate this distance advantage, Call of Duty has the sniper glint. If you look in the direction of a sniper peeking through his sight, the long-range shooter is clearly visible to you through the light reflection of his scope.

cod warzone sniper glint example
When snipers look through a large scope, they are usually easy to spot.

In Warzone, the reflection usually starts at scopes with 4x magnification. However, the “Cold War” weapons have already bypassed this rule. They even offer 6x magnification and other zoom levels without reflection.

Now, this also applies to some scopes of the sniper weapons from CoD MW. This makes it really difficult to spot and counter the attacking snipers. If you’re currently wondering in Battle Royale where the sniper shot came from – then run away. A skilled sniper will take you out before you can even guess where the bullet came from. Here you can find out in detail how the sniper reflection in Warzone is actually supposed to work.

Which scopes give the “advantage”? The Warzone expert and CoD YouTuber “JGOD” has tested many scopes and found that the issue does not occur with all scopes of the Kar98k and HDR. However, the variable scopes are definitely broken and therefore really unfair. We have embedded the English YouTube video with the analysis from “JGOD” here:

Link to the YouTube content

Will it stay like this? The developers are working on it. The CoD creators maintain a Trello board where they log issues they are working on. The glint issue is already on the board and has the status “under investigation” (via trello.com). However, there is no timeline. Since it is not exactly a trivial matter, the developers are likely to bring a fix for the problem relatively soon.

Mid-Season 2 has patched quite a bit

In fact, the broken sniper scopes are not the only thing that was affected by the mid-season patch:

Attack Helicopters: For a few hours, the attack helicopters were back and brought an invisibility glitch into the game. The helis with miniguns were quickly replaced by the normal variant.

Broken Reload Perk: Almost all weapons from CoD MW have the attachment “Dexterity”. Normally, this perk provides faster reloading, but currently, the attachment is completely useless.

Broken Debuff Perk: The weapon perk “Fragile – Wounded” of the “Modern Warfare” weapons is also broken. Normally, the health regeneration of hit enemies should start later – that is currently not working.

Contrary Barrels of the FiNN LMG: The machine gun offers some interesting options for the barrel attachment that greatly increase your fire rate. Not so in mid-season 2 – the “contrary” barrels are all broken and offer the normal fire rate of the FiNN.

Current news about Warzone:

Often, little bugs disappear as unnoticed as they appeared in the game. But when such an important mechanic as the sniper reflection is no longer functioning correctly, it causes chaos in the entire Warzone. Hopefully, the glint will quickly return to the powerful sniper weapons.

Fans squeal with joy that a hairstyle in the MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV is coming back

Irina Moritz Irina Moritz Reading time 3 minutes

The MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV announced on Twitter that an old hairstyle, which was previously available, is now making a comeback. And fans are celebrating, as glamour is the true endgame in FFXIV.

This is the hairstyle: The hairstyle that many players desire is called “Modern Aesthetics – Gambler.” The hairstyle was first used by the NPC M’naago Rahz. She is a resistance fighter who players encounter in the Stormblood expansion.

  • ffxiv rainmaker 1
  • ffxiv rainmaker 2
  • ffxiv rainmaker 3
  • ffxiv rainmaker 4
This is what the hairstyle looks like

Originally, the hairstyle was available during the Gold Saucer Festival in 2017 and was only available for a short time. Players who missed the festival or started playing FFXIV later ended up empty-handed. Now, Square Enix announced via Twitter that the hairstyle will make a comeback in FFXIV.

The new patch 5.5 is coming on April 13 and along with it, the coveted hairstyle will return to the game. You will be able to exchange the item for MGP currency at the Gold Saucer. So it will happen without involving the real-money shop.

Prior to this, some players feared: If the hairstyle returns, it will only be in the cash shop. This fear is not realized.

The hairstyle was very popular at launch, which led to a meme or two poking fun at its popularity.

It felt like everyone was running around with the Gambler hairstyle
Fun Fact: Originally, the hairstyle belonged to the playable character named Sice from Final Fantasy Type-0. She fights with a scythe and has a rather distant and cool personality.

This is what players say: On Lodestone, the official site of the MMORPG, there have been comments and wishes since 2017 about the hairstyle returning (via Lodestone). Now, the joy over the hairstyle’s return is great under the announcement post on Twitter. After all, glamour and stylish character appearances are considered the true endgame of FFXIV.

The tweet from the English FFXIV account has over 6,600 upvotes, a number that in recent days only the news about the next Nier raid has reached. Fans of the hairstyle are especially happy that they do not have to pay extra for it.

The hairstyle was part of a limited-time event and such items usually go to the real-money shop after the event ends. This is not the case for the Gambler hairstyle.

One thing, however, dampens the players’ mood. The races Viera and Hrothgar, introduced with Shadowbringers in FFXIV, still cannot use such hairstyles, which frustrates the players of those races.

Patch 5.5 is the last major update before the release of the Endwalker expansion:

Does ESO neglect PvP? This is how the community argues about this topic

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 3 minutes

PvP plays a role in the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO), but the community is having a debate about how significant that role actually is. Because new updates usually revolve around additional content for PvE. Not everyone is pleased with this.

The last PvP update for the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online disabled armor sets in the PvP area Cyrodiil for a few weeks to test the impact on the game’s performance. Performance has been an issue in ESO’s PvP for a while now. But what about new content?

What is the problem with PvP? ESO receives a major expansion each year and has recently had three DLCs. These tell a cohesive story that spans the entire year. In 2021, it was the “Gates of Oblivion” with the Blackwood expansion. The story takes center stage in these updates.

New game areas are added, more quests, and also features that affect PvE. This year, these include NPC Companions, which allow players to tackle difficult dungeons without relying on the help of other players. The NPCs do not play a role in PvP.

However, it cannot be said that nothing is happening with PvP. The new Champion System 2.0, introduced in mid-March with the DLC Flames of Ambition, also has effects on player-versus-player battles. However, exclusive PvP features and content that expand this aspect of the MMORPG ESO are missing.

PvP plays a role in ESO but receives hardly any new content.

PvP or PvE? The ESO community argues

Here’s why the community is arguing: The PvP situation is certainly noticeable to the game’s community. There has been an ongoing discussion for years about how important PvP in ESO actually is. The PvP mode of the MMORPG is completely optional. You cannot be attacked without consent, and you also do not need to participate in the battles around the Imperial City if you do not want to.

Those who enjoy PvP can fight duels, engage in battlegrounds, or participate in the Alliance War to compete for the Imperial Crown.

Honestly, it must be said that it is completely irrelevant for the PvE part who sits on the throne. The Emperor and his buffs only affect PvP.

More about PvP in ESO:

PvP in ESO is essentially detached from the rest of the MMORPG. It feels almost like a different game. While that’s nice, it’s a bit strange when PvE players don’t even realize what’s happening in the central land of the continent Tamriel and who is allowed to be Emperor.

The fact that there are hardly any innovations to the system raises understanding for the frustration of PvP players who feel that this mode is somewhat neglected by the developers.

What the community says: Since not everyone enjoys PvP and ESO places great value on story and quests, discussions on this topic flare up again and again. Here, we summarize some voices from the community.

Those in favor of PvP make the following arguments:

  • Ozazz says (via official ESO forum): ‘It’s really time for something to happen here. If ESO could somehow introduce a PvP campaign that goes through the past or could revert skills and balance to the old state […]. Seriously, the game is just not getting better for PvP fans, and it needs something to breathe new life into that aspect.’
  • Micah_Bayer agrees (via official ESO forum): ‘Has PvP been completely abandoned? It makes me angry that there might be a new siege weapon in PvP, while new dungeons, trials, and so on are coming for PvE.’
  • cheesypiiza says (via reddit): ‘ESO desperately needs more options. It’s not like every year new PvP content comes out like it does for PvE. Two teams of 10 or 20 players, arena tournaments, battle royale… While that’s not necessarily needed, it would help combat PvP burnout.’

PvP opponents counter with statements like:

  • jhharvest finds PvP actually good (via reddit): ‘PvP in ESO is a complicated thing. A big issue is the lags. But basically, PvP is fun when it works.’
  • Jimmy_The_Fixer speaks against more PvP content (via official ESO forum): ‘Let’s not split the player base further. That would be dangerous. Especially open-world PvP needs a large player population.’
  • Tandor wonders (via official ESO forum): ‘The pure PvP population is a tiny percentage of the overall population, and people have been complaining about PvP since launch, but they are still mostly here. PvP players are still playing ESO because, despite the issues they think it has, there just isn’t a better alternative.’

There seems to be little consensus here. PvE fans want more PvE content in ESO, while PvP players want something new to enjoy. Whether major innovations and changes for player-versus-player battles are to be expected at this time is uncertain. Perhaps the developer studio Zenimax Online will one day address PvP on a larger scale. Currently, however, PvE seems to enjoy priority.

What do you think of PvP in ESO? Do you have enough to do, or are you wishing for larger changes?

Asmongold accuses Twitch of favoring women

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 3 minutes

The WoW-streamer Asmongold accuses the streaming platform Twitch of double standards. While men face harsh penalties for violations on Twitch, female streamers get away with a lot. This is not right and creates an “anti-women” sentiment on Twitch.

This bothers Asmongold: Streamer Asmongold is particularly annoyed about the treatment of streamer Jenelle “Indiefoxx” Dagres.

The streamer has now received a “3-day ban” from Twitch four times. The last 3-day ban she received was for “selling Twitch services or features”.

According to Twitch rules, for example, it is prohibited to offer viewers to make them moderators for donations. Indiefoxx had a promotion running in her stream where viewers could become “VIPs” for 100 subs and receive a special mark.

Apparently, Twitch sees this as a rule violation that results in a 3-day ban.

For Asmongold, this punishment is far too lenient. Especially when compared to how Twitch dealt with the Swedish streamer Forsen. Forsen briefly displayed a pornographic image in a stream, as he fell for a chat troll, and was permanently banned from Twitch. Only after a revolt from the fans did Twitch allow him back on after a month.

Others who receive 4 bans in such a short time would be simply removed from the platform:

“If Forsen had done what Indiefoxx did, Twitch wouldn’t just ban Forsen, they would find a way to shoot him to the moon! They would ban him from the Earth.”

Asmongold

Asmongold says: After her ban, Indiefoxx goes on to publicly state that she is now streaming on “OnlyFans” – this clearly violates her Twitch partner contract. But that doesn’t concern Twitch. Nothing happens.

von Schuhmann

“Twitch creates an anti-women sentiment”

What Asmongold fears: The WoW streamer says that with this clear inequality of treatment between men and women, Twitch indirectly promotes an “anti-women” sentiment on Twitch.

This is simply unfair and not right how Twitch behaves here. Everyone should be treated fairly and equally. Even if this inequality affects only a few people, it has an impact on the entire community, as it creates the sentiment: “Some get away with everything.”

Asmongold says: He actually doesn’t want to discuss this topic, as it attracts the wrong clientele: men who hate women. He wants nothing to do with that.

He states: Some men on the internet have the same relationship with women as Gollum has with the One Ring. When they don’t have it, they desperately want it. Once they have it, they hate it. They are just permanently angry.

But no one talks about the inequality between men and women on Twitch for fear of being “canceled.” Therefore, it is up to him to address it. The situation is simply embarrassing for Twitch.

gollum-ring
Asmongold compares some men on the internet to Gollum.

Twitch has a ban problem, not a “women vs. men” problem

What’s behind it: Asmongold strongly refers to man vs. woman. In fact, female streamers are often banned for trivial reasons – especially smaller female streamers feel unfairly treated and targeted by trolls.

However, it is also not the case that Twitch only permanently bans “small streamers” and always lets the big ones go: Even big streamers suddenly receive permanent bans for “actually small offenses“, while small female streamers get away with blatant misconduct.

The ban policy of Twitch simply seems strange and arbitrary overall.

The phenomenon of big streamers being permanently banned and then unbanned because their community goes into uproar contributes to the impression that Twitch does not follow a clear line in its bans.

The ban policy of Twitch is getting more ridiculous

Nvidia graphics cards are now being smuggled like cocaine

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

They made so much money from the cheats that they could afford a whole garage full of luxury cars and sports cars.

Which cars were found in the garage and their total value can be found in our report: Cheat provider used their earnings to buy a sports car fleet, now must go to jail

The graphics card madness continues. Chinese authorities have now secured a large quantity of Nvidia graphics cards after engaging in a chase with smugglers.

What happened? The trade in graphics cards is currently extremely profitable. Many are out of stock, prices have been high for months. Apparently, it has become so lucrative that criminal gangs are focusing on trading GPUs.

In Hong Kong, a chase at sea occurred due to 300 graphics cards. Authorities chased the smugglers with speedboats and later presented the seized loot. As TVB News explains (via YouTube.com), the seized items belonged to a smuggling ring.

The smugglers were spotted near the airport

This mistake was made by the smugglers: As Kotaku reports (via Kotaku.com), Chinese authorities spotted a fishing boat near “Hong Kong International” airport. The smugglers were transferring crates from this fishing boat to a speedboat at 2:00 AM. When their cover was blown, the men onboard the speedboat sped towards the mainland.

A high-speed chase ensued, as Tom’s Hardware reports (via tomshardware.com). Although the group managed to escape, the police tracked down the owner of the fishing boat. This allowed them to seize some crates.

What was smuggled: The seized goods included typical exotic foods, such as sea cucumbers and shark fins, as well as technical products like smartphones, computer gadgets, and RAM. Surprisingly, the crates contained approximately 300 unidentified graphics cards. According to the police report, the value of the technical products amounts to 2 million HKD (approximately 216,000 €).

Neither stickers nor model names are present on the graphics cards. However, as Tom’s Hardware reports, these are supposed to be CMP graphics cards from Nvidia. Apparently, these are the “CMP 30 HX” cards, which are reportedly being traded at prices of around 600 € each.

These graphics cards are typically used for crypto-mining. As Kotaku notes, however, the “CMP 30 HX” cards are not particularly effective in this area. The fact that they are still being smuggled shows how high the demand for graphics cards currently is.

Another major blow in China

What else happened? At the end of March, Chinese authorities conducted another significant operation that made waves in the gaming community. They arrested what is believed to be the world’s largest cheat provider. The provider sold cheats on 17 websites.

They made so much money from the cheats that they could afford a whole garage full of luxury cars and sports cars.

Outriders guarantees legendary weapons – Here’s how to get 3 of them

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 3 minutes

Legendary weapons are the most powerful firearms in Outriders and can be very difficult to obtain. We show you 3 locations where you are guaranteed to find a Legendary.

What are legendary weapons? These are weapons with unique effects that can be found in Outriders. Normally, you acquire them through drops from enemies, but this requires a lot of luck. The world tier also plays a role – the higher your world rank, the better the loot that drops.

Legendary items are not necessarily the strongest in the game on their own, but they provide you with unique mods when disassembled. These can be installed in other items, allowing you to build your own top items. This crafting system significantly sets Outriders apart from other loot shooters.

Regardless of drops, there are some places in the game that will guarantee you a legendary weapon. Here we present 3 spots in the game.

Legendary Weapon through Story Boss – Here’s how it works

Here you can get the weapon: For this, you need to defeat the story boss Chrysalismutant (eng: Chrysaloid). You can find him in chapter six, in the forest, as the fourth boss. Once you have defeated the Chrysalismutant, you will receive a guaranteed legendary weapon as a reward, but only for the first kill.

The weapon that drops, however, is random. You will get a Legendary, but you won’t know in advance which one. Additionally, this drop is only guaranteed on the first victory over Chrysaloid. If you defeat the boss a second time, there is no guaranteed legendary weapon anymore. After that, the mutant is still worthwhile, for farming Titan.

Outriders Chrysalismutant
When the mutant falls for the first time, a Legendary is waiting.

The good thing about this is that you can defeat the boss even at world tier 1. So you don’t have to sweat excessively against the mutant; you can even take him down on the easiest level.

Maybe you will get lucky here and receive one of these 10 strong Legendarys:

10 legendary weapons that you can now farm in Outriders and why you should do it

Legendary Weapon through World Tier 12 – Here’s how it works

Here you can get the weapon: You actually don’t have to do anything but play. Once you reach world tier 12, you will receive a golden chest as a reward, which will give you a legendary weapon. For example, the report about the weapon “The Wicker”. This is a legendary SMG that you can equip directly after the drop. However, there are also other weapons as rewards.

World tier 12 is not so easy to achieve, though. You will need to spend several hours in the game to level up to that point. You level up faster in the world rank if you die less frequently. So if you often bite the dust, you’ll need to be patient.

If you are interested in more about Outriders, this might also interest you:

Legendary Weapon through Quest – Here’s how it works

Here you can get the weapon: For this, you need to complete the quest “Big Iron”. There you have to find 3 weapon parts and eliminate some enemies while searching for them. Once you have found all the weapon parts, you will receive a legendary weapon as a reward. You must then return to Channa after finding the weapon parts to claim your Legendary.

The weapon parts are quite tricky to find, so you will need to search thoroughly. Be prepared to eliminate numerous enemies before you’ve gathered all the parts.

In the end, you will be guaranteed a reward and will not have to rely on a random drop. You will have the choice between 3 different weapons:

  • Aerie Master: A shotgun
  • The Landlubber: A sniper rifle
  • Grim Marrow: A light machine gun

Depending on your playstyle, you can choose one of the 3 weapons and use it to slay enemies in the future.

Outriders can be quite difficult on your own, and these easy methods are not necessarily trivial. Especially reaching world rank 12 can take a while alone. MeinMMO author Benedict Grothaus learned this the hard way:

PvP of Destiny 2 is a dream for many – Save or let die?

Philipp Hansen Philipp Hansen Reading time 5 minutes

In Destiny 2 PvP is not doing well. PvE players chronically hate it, and even Crucible enthusiasts are really angry. Bungie is now trying to save it, but is it worth it?

The special situation: The ways players of Destiny 2 spend their Guardian daily life can be very diverse. Casually traverse the different locations and complete a few quests for new exotics. Fight solo or in a team through missions and level up. Or would you rather be in raids or test your loadout for endgame suitability in the Trials.

Guardians can also compete against other Guardians. PvP is played in the Crucible or sometimes in Gambit (PvEvP). The PvP often plays a significantly more prominent role in Bungie’s loot shooter than in comparable games. The Division has the Dark Zone and PvP arenas, okay – but with Anthem, Borderlands, and recently also Outriders, PvP is not an issue. The focus is clearly on the cooperative “let’s mow everything down” experience.

However, this tightly interwoven PvP continually troubles Destiny players. And currently, the fights between Guardian and Guardian are really not going well. MeinMMO wants to hear your opinion on the Crucible and how Bungie should deal with it. Before we get to the survey, we’ll briefly address the topic.

[toc]

The fun mode that has only brought frustration since Destiny 1?

This is the PvE criticism: When a new exotic quest requires a trip into the Crucible, countless Guardians feel stepped on. Specifically, those who primarily play Destiny as a PvE shooter. They hate competing against others and find it unreasonable that Bungie constantly forces them into PvP.

Anyone who wants to save the Destiny universe from aliens, gods, and time-traveling robots is understandably annoyed that for the new super weapon they suddenly have to play a mode they have no interest in. We also read your frustration in the comments on MeinMMO (and that since 2014).

Only because of the alleged fun mode has the entire PvE been patched into the ground, killing the soul of the game.

Tomas Stefani via MeinMMO

The second major critique, which we also regularly see in the comments, is that PvP destroys PvE (also since 2014). In order to maintain the balance in the Crucible – which many say doesn’t exist – Bungie regularly pulls out the nerf hammer and excessively weakens overpowered weapons.

Often this resulted in the aforementioned weapon also being weaker in PvE. Instead of a god-slayer, Guardians then held a toy gun in their hands. Here again, the criticism is understandable. A mode that you only visit for quests should be responsible for making your hard-grinded favorite weapon weaker?

Crucible enthusiasts feel like second-class Guardians

This is why PvP Guardians are angry: One might think that only the PvE Guardians are complaining about PvP. But especially the Crucible enthusiasts have recently been the loudest in their protests. In Destiny 2, players are now rebelling against PvP – why?

  • There have been no new maps for PvP for over a year. With the Content Vault, some have even been removed. While PvE Guardians have recently received treats like a Creepy Ship and a new strike, there is no change in the Crucible in sight.
  • Especially on PC, cheaters are rampant and the PvP endgame (Trials) had to be canceled twice due to unfair practices in the current Season 13.
  • The Trials also have other problems that make the mode less attractive for “normal mortal” players. Unless the new super weapon is basically given away.
  • In the Iron Banner event, stagnation reigns; instead of fresh loot, there are only re-skins of old guns.
  • A constant issue is also balance. Many of the Guardians who enjoy PvP complain about the new Stasis abilities. For months it was either you play Stasis yourself or you lose.
  • There is also grumbling about the same old meta. Especially hated are the shotgun slides and jumping with shotguns, which seem to be intertwined with Felwinter’s Lie.
destiny-2-guardians-fight-pvp
Should Guardians fight each other?

In short: PvP players feel neglected by Bungie. And like the PvE Guardians, they have every right to be angry. Especially now, when the current season has spent a large part of its content load on PvE, the Crucible should actually provide incentives to play Destiny 2 during the dry spell. Or should it …

Bungie commits to saving the Crucible

After a long silence, the Destiny developer has spoken up. In the big plans for 2021, the new head, Joe Blackburn, also addressed the Crucible. Notably, Bungie is now really trying to differentiate between PvP and PvE balance. We can also track the long-awaited wish quite well in the latest patch notes.

What is going to happen or has already happened to save PvP:

  • Quests for new weapons allow freedom of choice whether to play in PvE or PvP (or Gambit)
  • They want to address Trials issues (like Three-Peeking) and have already brought some really hot loot.
  • Providing a Security Team twice as large to make it more difficult for cheaters. Additionally, they are already taking legal action against cheat sellers.
  • They have already reacted to Stasis. A whole series of patches and adjustments for the nasty ice abilities have now been made.
  • In the future, the dusty Light classes will be revamped to keep up with Stasis (also in PvE).
  • In the last Iron Banner, players were used as test subjects for a new algorithm.
The Trials want to lure you with strong weapons and stylish armor

Should experts take care of it? Additionally, it seems that Bungie is now seeking help from PvP professionals from the community. Recently, a secret meeting took place with streamers and content creators in attendance, discussing a “rosy PvP future”. We also read statements like “Bungie is really listening and actually making changes” on Twitter.

What is really behind this remains to be seen. Some of you expressed concerns on MeinMMO that not everyone feels represented well by a professional or streamer. Some even blame the streaming prominence for much of the current state of PvP.

Also interesting:

Now we need your opinion

If you were in charge at Bungie, how would you deal with the ongoing contentious issue of PvP? MeinMMO wants to know this from you in a survey.

Here’s how to participate: Each reader has only one vote available. So choose wisely from the 6 options. Be sure to explain to us and the other Guardians why you voted the way you did. You can also post your own ideas for saving the Crucible in the comments.

Have fun with the survey and thank you for participating!
