In Destiny 2 is Reckoning a new mode of Season 6. Here are tips so you don’t fail terribly in “The Reckoning”.
This is Reckoning: It is a PvE mode that became active in Season 6 for annual pass owners. According to Bungie, Reckoning is a fast-paced, intense, and challenging mode consisting of 3 stages. Each stage becomes more chaotic than the one before.
To make sure you don’t drown in all the chaos, here are a few tips to rock Reckoning.
Tip 1: Don’t go in underleveled to Reckoning
Here’s the tip: Don’t start the mode if you have a power level below the recommended power level. Reckoning is already tough enough. So make sure you meet the recommended level requirements, as the enemies will just take you down quicker otherwise. Underleveled Guardians usually aren’t much help and just end up dead somewhere.
These are the recommended power levels:
Reckoning Level 1: Recommended Power 650.
Reckoning Level 2: Recommended Power 670.
Reckoning Level 3 starts on March 15. You will face enemies with Power 690. This level is said by Bungie to be tough endgame content.
This is how Reckoning – Level 1 works: You need to kill PvE enemies quickly and find new ones quickly to kill them as well. Because there’s a timer running out. During this time, you need to keep raising a dominance counter with kills. If you are too slow, the counter drops. When the counter reaches 100%, there is a boss that you need to eliminate in a limited time.
This is how Reckoning – Level 2 works: Level 2 starts like Level 1. Defeat enemies to reach 100% dominance. However, a door opens to a bridge. Move to a total of 6 circles on the bridge that you need to stand in to reach 100% each. Then you get to a boss room through a portal, where you must eliminate two Ascendant Knights. First, defeat the enemy with a symbol above their head in one of the four corners to gain a buff against the Knights.
Here’s the tip: In Reckoning, there are always 3 modifiers active. A scorch modifier that changes weekly, and two other modifiers that change daily.
Pay attention especially to the scorch modifier and equip accordingly. In the first week, Void damage is amplified. For a Hunter, for example, the Exotic Orpheus Rig combined with the appropriate super is a good option. Also take along energy and power weapons that match the active scorch modifier.
Some modifiers, such as glass, are particularly unfavorable in Reckoning. Because with glass, you take significantly less damage than usual, so you will die more often. If you play with randoms who constantly die, it’s worth waiting for other modifiers.

Tip 4: Revive your teammates quickly
Here’s the tip: This is probably the most important tip. You need a lot of firepower to raise the dominance counter. If a Guardian dies, you are missing that.
It takes painfully long for a player to respawn and return to the fight. So revive them as quickly as possible.
On Reddit, there’s already ironic reactions that many Guardians neglect this tip. One user wrote – for which they received thousands of upvotes: “I found a glitch that makes Reckoning really easy!”
The “glitch” looks like this: If a team member dies, go to them. “Revive” will appear. Press the button, and they can continue fighting!
The nasty thing about the dominance counter: It’s not enough if you quickly kill the enemies alone. Because the dominance counter is not a pure “kill counter”. Instead, you need to get quick kills while your teammates are doing the same, which is why the 20-second respawn time becomes deadly. When all 4 Guardians are alive and quickly killing enemies, the counter climbs rapidly.
Bonus Tip: Stay relatively close together as a team so you can eliminate the tougher bosses quickly and revive each other promptly.

Tip 5: Kill the snipers
Here’s the tip: If you go down in Reckoning, it’s certainly most often due to a sniper. The enemy snipers spawn on all kinds of elevated platforms. If you see any, communicate that to your team and kill them as quickly as possible.
It’s best to have a weapon for distance, like a scout rifle with a tracking module (for explosive damage), because the snipers usually come in a group.
Tip 6: Service violation!
Here’s the tip: In Reckoning, it’s “time to shine” for the weapon you had to play long Gambit for: the Service Violation.
The Service Violation is an exotic hand cannon that deals bonus damage to the Taken and causes explosions when you land multiple rounds in an enemy. Since you will be overwhelmed by Taken from all sides in Reckoning, the mode is made for the Service Violation.
You deal significant damage to enemies with this weapon, and if you’re good with this hand cannon, you won’t want to put it down.
Bonus Tip: Wear gloves that increase reload speed for hand cannons.

Tip 7: Use raid banners
Here’s the tip: Not many Guardians probably know this info: You can use raid banners in Reckoning.
In the spawn area, to the right of the bank, there is a small crater where you can set up a banner. You can buy the banners from Petra in the Dreaming City; they grant you full super and power ammo.
With this, you might get the crucial advantage to win the Reckoning round.
Tip 8: Get your particle back that you wagered
Here’s the tip: To get to the Gambit Prime gear in Reckoning, you must throw the particles created with the synthesizer into the bank located to the left in front of the pit in the spawn area.
You only receive a piece of armor with the particle if you win the Reckoning round. However, if you lose, you shouldn’t rage quit, but run back to the bank after the round and get your particle back. Then you can wager it again next time.
In Pokémon GO, entire towns are now complaining that no Pokémon spawn in their areas. The reason is the new map update.
These are the locations: On Reddit , a player reports from the island of Salamis in Greece that no Pokémon spawn anywhere on the entire island.
Other regions of the country are also speaking out. For instance, the city of Ioannina, also located in Greece, is reported to have fewer spawns. The island of Poros, located south of Athens, is experiencing the same problem.
This is why it is unplayable: Salamis seems to have been hit particularly hard. It is reportedly that not a single Pokémon spawns there anymore. Gyms and PokéStops are still present, but the spawns have completely disappeared. This means that it is no longer possible to play effectively there.
This is how the error occurred
This is why there are no spawns anymore: Along with the latest update in Pokémon GO, there was a revision of the OSM map. Niantic also uses the data from this map to create their map.
The island of Salamis west of Athens. Source: Google Maps
Since the change, the affected regions are marked with a specific designation. This designation is also adopted by Pokémon GO. Every region in the world that is marked this way receives no spawns.
Why are there these designations? There are indeed some areas in the world where there are no spawns at all. This is due to the designation. Schools or churches are also affected.
Some natural areas also have such a designation that prevents spawns. This now includes the areas in Greece. Apparently, a cartographer has marked these regions as a natural area.
Spawns like these can no longer be found in the Greek areas.
What will happen now with these regions? The players in these areas are trying to contact Niantic. They want their areas to be freed from this designation so they can play normally again.
The player who reported the problem on Reddit claims that numerous players from the 80-member community have already dropped out. They do not want to continue playing under these circumstances.
Could the area be saved again? Such errors related to the OSM map occur repeatedly. They are either fixed quickly – or it can take a very long time.
For months, there were two huge nests throughout Berlin that blocked almost all other spawns. They were only fixed now, with the new update.
The latest patch 8.1.5 drives many WoW players crazy. Numerous portals have been removed, and players now have to travel further.
That’s the problem with the portals: Blizzard announced in their latest patch that they want to remove some portals in World of Warcraft. As a result, many smaller regions have become significantly harder to access.
This is why players are complaining: Players are now complaining in various forums that they have to travel much longer to reach certain areas. This frustrates the fans.
This is new with the portals in WoW
These portals are now missing: Overall, 6 portals have been removed in the new patch. They are mainly the ones that took you to remote areas:
Some portals have disappeared in the latest patch.
Hellfire Peninsula
Time Lapse
Dalaran Crater
Vale of Eternal Blossoms
Temple of the Wyrmrest
Karazhan
This is how Blizzard explains the change: The developers are not only removing the aforementioned portals but also adding other portals. These primarily take you to the major cities of World of Warcraft.
This way, players are supposed to travel mainly through the cities and less through the remote areas.
This is the consequence of the removals: The portals took players to places that one could otherwise only reach by longer travel. Now, players have to find alternative routes to reach the areas.
Now you have to fly to certain places.
Often, you now have to fly to another area and from there fly to your destination. On Reddit , a user has created a list explaining how to reach areas without portals.
This is how players are reacting to the change
Players are angry: In numerous forums, votes against this change are being cast. Some players find it too cumbersome to get to certain areas now. Many threads have already received over 5000 upvotes.
Blizzard reacts: After Blizzard caught wind of the negative feedback, Community Manager Bornakk responded to the topic. He writes: “I understand that changes can initially be a bit daunting, but I also believe that they help keep the world of Azeroth alive. If there are fewer portals, does the world feel a bit larger for you?”
Many players are angry about this change.
This is how players reacted: However, this response did not positively resonate with many. A user replied: “No, it simply feels as if traveling takes too long. If you want the world to feel larger, create larger zones that are more vibrant.”
The discussions about the portals appear far from settled. So far, Blizzard remains steadfast and maintains their changes.
In the new patch, you can also become a dinosaur druid:

The Menu and Interface of Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
After successfully completing the tutorial and creating a character, you will land on the overview screen. This serves as a hub from where you can access all essential content from Skylanders: RoH:
The main menu in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
(1) – The airship takes you to the campaign of Skylanders: RoH. Here you can choose from ten different worlds with three difficulty levels and collect experience and resources
(2) – The large building is basically the barracks and takes you to the character overview
(3) – Once you have completed Level 5-1 on Easy in Adventure Mode, you can enter the arena and challenge other players and friends. In the Arena Shop, you can even buy Soul Stones!
(4) – Once you have the option to create a guild or join one, you can access it via the tower.
(5) – On the large area, you can place buildings that produce gold, potions, energy, and even jewels.
(6) – Always keep an eye on ongoing events and the corresponding rewards.
(7) – The summoning portal, where you can get Soul Stones for your heroes.
The Heroes and Elements of Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
That’s why the heroes in Skylanders: RoH are so important: The summonable characters are the focal point of the game. Improving and equipping the heroes will definitely occupy you the most, hence the system is very complex.
Hot Dog, one of the starter heroes in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
All heroes come with a star indicator that indicates how rare and strong a hero is. Skylanders with only one star are significantly more common and weaker than heroes with 5 stars. But not only the stars influence your decision about which heroes to include in your team, but also the element.
What does a hero’s element do? The element indicates which elements your hero has strengths and weaknesses against. A strength in an element means that you deal significantly more damage, while you take more damage if you are weak against the opposing element.
The individual worlds in Adventure Mode each represent an element
Here are the strengths and weaknesses of each element: There are a total of ten elements in Skylanders: RoH, each displaying the following strengths and weaknesses:
Life – Strong against Water and Technology / weak against Air and Ghosts
Water – Strong against Fire and Magic / weak against Life and Earth
Fire – Strong against Air and Ghosts / weak against Water and Technology
Air – Strong against Life and Earth / weak against Fire and Magic
Ghosts – Strong against Life and Earth / weak against Fire and Magic
Earth – Strong against Water and Technology / weak against Air and Ghosts
Technology – Strong against Fire and Magic / weak against Life and Earth
Magic – Strong against Air and Ghosts / weak against Water and Technology
Light – Strong against Darkness / no weakness
Darkness – Strong against Light / no weakness
You can also see the relationships in the following graphic:
The strengths and weaknesses of the elements in Skylanders: RoH
Since you can only have three heroes in your team, you will never be prepared against all elements at once. Accordingly, you need to form specialized teams to cover as many elements as possible.
The Character Screen
On the hero screen, you can make various upgrades and strengthen your Skylanders. You have different options available, which we will introduce below:
The character screen in Skylanders: RoH
(1) – The overall strength of your hero
(2) – The hero selection
(3) – Stats: The basic statistics such as attack, HP, defense, and resistances
(4) – Skills: The active and passive skills of your hero
(5) – Upgrade: Upgrade your hero using resources
(6) – Evolve: Raise your character to the next star level
(7) – Awaken: Bring your hero to a new development stage
(8) – Rune: Equip your hero with runes to improve certain statistics
Especially upgrading, evolving, and awakening are essential for strengthening your heroes. For this, you will need plenty of resources that you can find in various places in the game. However, the skills that you use in battle can also be enhanced.
The runes play a vital role in character development
What exactly do the runes do? Runes are equipment items that enhance specific parameters of your hero. Runes come in various forms, each influencing different character attributes once you have equipped a certain number of them (so-called set bonuses).
Depending on the character role, you can distribute the following types of runes across up to six slots:
Energy – Increases HP by 10% with 2 equipped runes
Protection – Increases defense by 10% with 2 equipped runes
Strike – Increases attack by 25% with 4 equipped runes
Resistance – Increases effect resistance by 10% with 2 equipped runes
Focus – The focus rune provides 10% more accuracy on effects with a 2-set
Fury – If you equip 4 fury runes simultaneously, your critical damage increases by 30%
Hope – With 4 equipped hope runes, block damage decreases by 20%
Hit – Increases hit accuracy by 5% with 2 runes
Dodge – With 2 equipped dodge runes, you dodge 5% more attacks
The different types of runes in Skylanders: RoH
Many runes already provide an effect once you have equipped just 2 of them. Thus, even with six available slots, you can combine multiple rune effects.
The Combat System of Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
In Skylanders: RoH, you send your heroes into battle to collect experience points and resources. The combat system is both familiar and refreshingly new due to the mana system. Mastering the combat system can give you a significant advantage in battles. However, the battle itself is only the second step. First, let’s take a look at how you prepare your heroes for battle.
Tips for Battle Preparation
This is how you prepare for battles: Every time you start a mission or enter a dungeon, you need to select the heroes you want to send into battle. The game remembers the selection, so if needed, you only have to swap out a few positions.
In battle preparation, you can assign roles to your heroes
Up to three heroes can actively participate in the combat. In the first position, you should always use the hero from whose leader skills you want to benefit. However, keep in mind that not every hero possesses a leader skill. Leader abilities can be very powerful and helpful. For example, the character Knight Mare has a leader ability that heals the entire team when an enemy is defeated. Practical!
Fill the remaining two slots with the heroes you also want to send into battle. Below, you usually have the option (in most cases) to choose two spectators who do not participate in the combat but still earn experience points. However, you must live with the fact that the spectators will receive less EXP than the active combatants (about 30%).
Once all roles are assigned, you can start the battle
What is the companion slot at the bottom right? Not only can you send in Skylanders to battle, but also one of the 10 available villains in the game, who will assist you in various ways during the battle. The Broccoli Guy heals you during battles and is particularly useful in the early game.
However, keep in mind that the villains do not level up through experience points but exclusively through blue potions that you can find everywhere. Once you have assigned all necessary roles, you can get started!
Tips for Battles
As the battle screen may seem quite chaotic at first, let’s take a closer look at the individual elements.
The battle screen in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
(1) – The element, level, health points (green bar), stun indicator (yellow/orange), and the number of hits before you become stunned (number on the right). The displays are identical for you and your opponents.
(2) – The combat duration. To achieve 3 stars in your adventures, you often need to complete battles within a specific time
(3) – The round counter indicates how many rounds you need to complete and your current position.
(4) – From left to right: Target options (attack weak element or hardest opponent), auto-battle, battle speed (normal or x2), pause, and chat
(6) – The skills of your characters. Each hero uses two skills in battle, which come with different effects
(7) – The mana points indicate which skills you can use. Each attack consumes mana points, which regenerate over time.
One of the tougher bosses in Skylanders: RoH – Pain-Yatta
How does the mana system work? The mana system is particularly impactful. Instead of using a speed bar as in comparable games, you allocate mana points that recharge over time. Each skill consumes a different amount of mana points, so keep an eye on your supply at all times.
Defeated opponents allow mana points to regenerate faster, so always focus on one opponent (just tap). This shows the significant difference between manual fighting and auto fighting. The computer uses all your mana points as soon as they’re available. This can be a disadvantage in some battles.
You can also inflict status effects on your opponents
Only use the auto-battle function if you are sure you can defeat the opponent this way.
How do I knock out opponents? In Skylanders: RoH, you can stun opponents to incapacitate them for a short time. This mechanic is essential, especially in boss battles, and should always be used when the opportunity arises.
Stunned, Pain-Yatta is significantly less dangerous, but unfortunately, the same goes for our heroes
You can tell how many hits it takes to stun an opponent by the number next to the health bar. Note that attacks that hit multiple times also reduce the number of hits required to stun an opponent significantly. Use this to your advantage!
In what order should skills be used? Start the fight, if possible, with a buff for your team (for example, raise attack) or a debuff for the opponent’s team (lower defense), provided your heroes are capable of this. You have to be highly situational and memorize your characters’ skill set. Additionally, consider the following tips:
Always focus on one opponent
Use cheap, light attacks on opponents who are close to defeat
Use strong and costly attacks to deal damage to opponents with a lot of health
Check if an opponent can be knocked out. You should always do this, as it interrupts the opponent’s attack and they cannot act for a short time
Those who have mastered the skill system can even win fights that seem hopeless. Deploy your heroes and skills purposefully, stun your opponents, and keep an eye on your mana points, and you will be victorious.
After the battle, your rewards and experience points will be displayed
What happens after a fight? Once all enemies or you yourself are defeated, the battle ends, and a battle summary is displayed. Here you get to know,
which items you have won,
how many experience points your heroes have collected,
how many EXP you have received as a Portal Master, and
a selection of options for how you want to proceed after the fight
The Resources and Currencies of Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
Skylanders: RoH does not skimp on materials, resources, and upgrade components. It is quite difficult to keep track of everything. We will show you what resources are available and where you can find them. Additionally, we provide tips on which materials you should focus on at the start.
You can quickly spend many jewels here: In the summoning shop
Currencies in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
Currencies are used to purchase items in the game, whether buildings, soul stones for heroes, or upgrading runes. There are two main currencies: jewels and gold. Jewels are the real-money currency, with which you can summon new heroes or refresh your energy. Jewels are by far the most important and valuable resource. Therefore, you should handle this currency with care.
What can I do with gold? Gold is the second most important currency, primarily earned in missions and dungeons. With gold
you buy and upgrade buildings,
you can create a guild,
you upgrade runes, and
you upgrade your heroes
The extra dungeons provide you with additional resources such as gold and soul stones
Prepare to spend large amounts of gold. To get as much gold as possible, complete the maximum number of runs in the Golden Cave daily. The tougher the opponents, the higher the gold yield. Adventure missions also yield a lot of gold.
What do guild points and arena medals bring? Once you join a guild, you can earn guild points by gifting soul stones to other members or participating in particularly difficult and lengthy battles (so-called raids).
The guild shop in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
In the guild shop, you can invest these points in new heroes (via scrolls) or in special elemental statues that increase the effectiveness of your heroes of a certain element.
If you are successful in the arena, you earn arena medals and can go on a shopping spree in the corresponding shop. Here, you’ll find soul stones for heroes (even very rare ones) and omnipotent stones that allow you to directly create soul stones for heroes.
The arena shop in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
Resources in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
In addition to the two main currencies, there are a variety of resources needed for various purposes. Most materials are characterized by being found only in specific locations in the game and serving a special purpose.
In the distorted dimension, you will find many resources to improve your heroes
The following resources are currently available in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes:
Soul Stones: These are needed to awaken and further develop heroes. Typically, you obtain soul stones using jewels in the summoning portal. However, you can also find them for specific heroes in adventure missions.
Wish Stones: With wish stones, you can perform summons (of lower quality). You receive wish stones from friends or upon completing missions.
Upgrade Elixirs: You can use awakening elixirs to upgrade your heroes (to a maximum of +5). You can obtain these elixirs in the distorted dimension.
Upgrade Stones: You can use awakening stones to enhance your heroes’ skills. You can find these in the wish tower.
Element Essences: These essences are important for awakening heroes and improving skills. You can also find this resource in the distorted dimension.
Omnipotent Stone: With the omnipotent stone, which comes in various rarities, you can directly create soul stones for your heroes. You can find omnipotent stones in the wonder tower.
Red Potions: With red potions, you can grant your heroes experience points, allowing them to level up. At least in theory. In practice, the potions are useless, providing very few experience points. Just keep them; they may become useful in the future.
Blue Potions: You can use blue potions to enhance your villains that accompany you in battles. You frequently receive these potions after a fight.
Materials in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
What are the most important resources at the start? At the beginning, you will need large amounts of upgrade elixirs and element essences to bring your heroes to the next star level. Additionally, check where you can find the soul stones for your heroes; these are also crucial for improving your units.
Advanced Tips and Tricks in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes
You have now internalized the basic mechanics and taken your first steps in the world of Skylanders: Ring of Heroes. It is time for some advanced tactics to ensure that you operate as efficiently as possible and waste as few resources as possible.
Tips for a Good Starter Team
Skylanders: RoH features dozens of heroes with different abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. But which heroes are good, and what should you focus on at the start? If you were lucky enough to get a hero with five stars right from the start, it may seem great at first glance.
One of the best and cheapest heroes in the game: Ka-Bumm
What is the problem with strong 5-star units? A 5-star unit may seem strong and push you forward at first. However, you will realize that these characters do not necessarily help you in the medium term. Why is that? To further develop heroes, you need fitting soul stones. Especially for characters with 5 stars, these are hellishly rare.
If you do not want to invest large sums of real money (we’re not talking about a few euros, but four-digit amounts), you will not be able to further develop the rarest figures for a long time. Therefore, at the start, focus on heroes that have a lower base star rating and continuously develop them. Fortunately, the game nudges you in the right direction.
Boomer is also one of the top heroes in Skylanders: RoH
Which team is the easiest to upgrade? You will quickly notice that the game throws large amounts of soul stones for the heroes
Hot Dog
Blades
Stealth Elf
at your feet. Although these are relatively weak at the start, you can make quick progress with the soul stones. Particularly, Stealth Elf can be developed into a strong unit. Follow the training missions, which will yield more than 400 soul stones in total. Hot Dog is especially interesting for Part 2 of the training missions because he is a hero of the fire element.
Moreover, you will receive Part 2 of the training with the 4-star base unit Enigma, which will certainly strengthen your team.
Spyro, one of the heroes in Skylanders: RoH
Which good heroes can be farmed early? If you want to secure two fantastic heroes early on, you need to reach the normal mode of adventure missions. These will be gradually unlocked as you complete the respective worlds on easy difficulty.
Boomer – Boomer is a tech unit and deals high explosion damage, even to all enemies. The unit’s starting value is 3 stars. You can farm the soul stones for Boomer in World 6 in stages 6.1 – 6.6 on normal difficulty.
Ka-Boom – This fire unit starts with only 2 stars but can be developed into a very strong hero. You can farm the soul stones for Ka-Boom in the fire world 3 in stages 3.1 – 3.6. Ka-Boom becomes significantly stronger than Hot Dog and should replace him.
Always remember: Every hero in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes can be raised to 6 stars and awakened. This is particularly worthwhile for Boomer and Ka-Boom. The fact that you can farm the soul stones for these two units is a significant advantage.
Which companion should I take along? You can choose from a total of 10 villains, each with different elements. Early on, you quickly receive the Broccoli Guy, who happens to be the best of the available companions. The Broccoli Guy automatically heals the most heavily injured hero and increases their defense.
These abilities make him the best companion, not only at the beginning but also in the long term. You can obtain soul stones for the grumpy vegetable in World 2 on all difficulty levels in stages 2.1 – 2.6.
Definitely follow the training, not the missions
What is the training? You can access training missions directly from the main screen (on the left side), and they serve as both a narrative thread and a tutorial.
The training is divided into parts. In each part, you must overcome challenges to snag rewards. Part 1 is all about the easier adventure missions, upgrading runes, and using potions. As rewards, you will receive jewels and a large number of soul stones for Stealth Elf.
In Part 2, you must use a hero of the fire element. So make sure your Hot Dog or Ka-Boom has been developed accordingly.
The individual worlds in Adventure Mode each represent an element
Why not play the adventure missions first? Parts of the training require you to play story missions. If you start these first, you will have to repeat them in training. Since the training is chronologically structured, you should rather follow the training itself; you will have to tackle the adventure missions eventually anyway.
This is how you properly use your jewels
With jewels, you can summon new heroes or buy gold, energy, and gears that are needed for the arena. Most players tend to invest jewels in summons. However, upon closer inspection, this is the most senseless and expensive way to invest.
With jewels, you can buy energy
Why shouldn’t you use jewels for normal summons? Because of the randomness. The sheer number of heroes in Skylanders: RoH will make it highly likely that you will not get the soul stones you need. It is simply inefficient. Instead, focus on collecting heroes for whom you have other ways to potentially get soul stones.
Events are an exception. Events often provide discounts on summons or allow you to summon heroes of a specific element, significantly increasing the chances of obtaining a hero you truly want. Therefore, conserve as many jewels as possible and wait for an event that grants you the soul stones you want.
Gold can also be purchased with precious jewels
What else should you use your jewels for? Energy, energy, and more energy. You will constantly be wandering around in dungeons and missions to collect soul stones, resources, and experience. Sooner or later, you will run out of energy here. Therefore, if you invest jewels at all, do so in energy refills.
This approach requires discipline and patience but will pay off for you in the long term. Resist the urge to use the normal summoning portal; it will pay off.
Use the auto-battle feature
Once you have completed a mission with three stars, you can use the auto-battle feature. With this mechanic, you can automate a specific mission to run up to ten times in a row. The battle speed is not only doubled but even tripled.
This feature is priceless, especially when you need to farm specific materials or soul stones. Just start the function and check back in 15 minutes to collect your loot.
What must I do to complete a mission with 3 stars? To receive full points, the following three conditions must be met:
The mission must be successfully completed (1 star),
No team member may die. This does not apply to the companion (1 star), and
You must complete the mission within a certain time. The harder the mission, the faster you must be. The time limit ranges from 3 to 5 minutes
Join a guild as early as possible
What benefits do guilds offer? In guilds, you meet like-minded players with whom you can tackle tough boss battles that yield excellent rewards. But that’s not all. You can ask your guild members to gift you soul stones of a specific unit and can also gift soul stones you don’t need yourself.
The overview screen of a guild
In the guild shop, you can purchase elemental statues that you can place and improve on your island. These statues bolster the attacks of the units of the corresponding element.
Make sure to take advantage of these rewards and investment opportunities as soon as you are allowed to join a guild.
Keep an eye out for events
Events are designed to keep Skylanders: Ring of Heroes fresh and provide new challenges. These events are structured in such a way that every player can receive rewards from an event, regardless of their level.
By completing challenges, you can earn resources, soul stones, and even free summons.
Snag the rewards in the event shop
However, rewards don’t just go into your inventory; you must actively claim them. Tap on the thick fellow wandering around your island with the event speech bubble to see all active events at a glance and to collect your rewards.
Is it wise to invest all rewards immediately? Here, you must weigh your options carefully. Does the event provide units or resources you desperately need? If so, you can indeed reinvest your rewards right away. In most cases, however, you should hold onto tickets for free summons. Sooner or later, an event will come along where you can invest all your savings and (hopefully) be rewarded for your patience.
Complete daily and weekly missions
What role do these recurring missions play? Daily missions consist of various disciplines that only take a little time but reward you with 80 jewels. While it may not seem like much, it adds up to 2400 jewels over the course of the month.
The weekly missions bring 250 jewels
The same goes for the weekly missions. These bring 250 jewels every week, allowing you to earn 3400 jewels through a few tasks per month. Not bad, right?

The lawsuit by Alfonso Ribeiro against Fortnite has been withdrawn. He had sued Epic Games, claiming they stole his Carlton dance from the series “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” for their game.
This is the lawsuit in question: Alfonso Ribeiro, the TV star from “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”, had sued Fortnite in December 2018. According to his allegations, they had “stolen” his “Carlton Dance” for a dance emote in the game.
This is how the lawsuit went: It has now been revealed that Alfonso Ribeiro has dropped his lawsuit. He no longer wants anything from Fortnite and is leaving the situation as it stands.
This is how the withdrawal is explained
This is what Ribeiro did: The actor had his lawyers submit a document to the judge in Los Angeles, stating that he is withdrawing from the lawsuit.

This is why he is stepping back: As an attorney for Ribeiro explained to “Fox News”, they want to comply with existing law as best as possible and accept the decision of the Supreme Court.
This was already decided: In February, the case was examined to determine whether the actor was the creator of the Carlton dance and whether he could protect it.
A review found that the dance was too simple for the actor. The three dance steps that make up the dance do not give anyone the right to protect them in any way.
Ribeiro apparently accepts this assessment. This could be the reason why he has withdrawn his lawsuit.

What does Epic say about it? From the developers of Fortnite, there has been no word on the topic so far. So it is unknown whether the actor and Epic have reached any out-of-court settlement.
However, the developers are likely relieved that the lawsuit has been dropped. How it stands with the other lawsuits against the dances, however, is still unknown.
But Fortnite itself has already issued numerous lawsuits:
The Division 2 will also appeal to single players. We provide an overview of what you can play solo.
Who is The Division 2 aimed at? Officially, The Division 2 is a shooter RPG with co-op and PvP content, primarily targeting multiplayer fans. With a completely new, complex clan system, it includes social features to emphasize the multiplayer aspect.
What the developers say about single player: Both publisher Ubisoft and developer Massive have emphasized repeatedly in recent weeks and months that The Division 2 also caters to solo players.
“Play solo or form a task force,” Ubisoft recently wrote about the open beta release. And regarding the latest information on the server start, it states: “The Division 2 is a seamless online experience that gives you the freedom to play alone or cooperatively with up to four players.”
Massive’s Associate Creative Director, Chadi El-Zibaoui, also assured, that The Division 2 can be played solo. As a solo player, you will already experience a lot in the campaign. And from day one, content will be delivered for everyone – not just for groups, but also for solo players.
According to the developers, The Division 2 is worth it for single players already. But what can you actually play solo?
Agents are rarely seen alone
The campaign is just the beginning for solo players
This content is available to solo players: All content that you can play solo can also be tackled in a task force with up to three other friends. However, you will probably have to take the first steps in the campaign alone until you unlock the co-op features.
Campaign: In several main missions, you fight as a Division agent against hostile factions to ensure law and order in Washington D.C. and to protect the civilian population. According to Ubisoft, the campaign is said to last over 40 hours. It also includes narrative depth, many secrets, and a lot to discover. You can find out more about the story in The Division 2 here.
Lonely agent in The Division 2
Side missions: In addition to the main missions, you can also take on side missions that tell additional stories and drop loot. Main missions and side missions can be repeated in the endgame.
Open-world activities: Not only within missions, but also in the open world, fights await you. You will encounter hostile factions patrolling the streets, occupying control points, or attempting to execute someone. Additionally, collectible objects can be found in the open world that reveal more about the lore.
Projects: NPCs in settlements and safehouses will periodically have tasks for you in the form of projects. In the endgame, there are weekly and daily projects where you might need to clear zones of enemies or complete missions on high difficulty levels. For this, you will receive rewards.
Hunts: Hunts are an evolution of the high-profile targets from The Division 1. The objective is to eliminate a sought-after enemy for whom a “bounty” has been placed. The bosses come with special abilities to surprise you. In addition to “handcrafted” hunts, there are also procedurally generated hunts, ensuring that they always offer a new player experience.
Priority Target Network: This is a progress tree consisting of weekly hunts that continue the story around D.C. Complete hunts to advance in the progress tree and unlock a heroic hunt where the best rewards await. Whether these hunts can be completed solo remains to be seen.
Dark Zone and PvP: Even as a solo player, you can venture into PvP. There is matchmaking. In the Dark Zone, the PvEvP area, you can also hunt loot and other players as a lone wolf. However, the chances of good loot and survival are higher in a well-coordinated task force.
Invaded missions and strongholds:Invaded missions are endgame missions. A new, particularly strong faction, the Black Tusk, occupies certain main missions from the campaign that you need to drive out. Strongholds, on the other hand, are fortresses of the factions that you can clear. They represent “particularly large and nasty” missions, most of which you will already encounter during the campaign. In the endgame, the strongholds will be taken over by the Black Tusk. How difficult these endgame missions will be for solo players remains to be seen.
Here’s how it was in The Division 1: In The Division 1, you could also tackle endgame activities solo. However, only a few agents managed to complete the tough incursions or the most challenging missions on their own. It is likely that the endgame in The Division 2 will also be a tough challenge for solo play.
Clan features: If you don’t want to team up with other players and instead roam Washington D.C. as lone wolves, you will miss out on several clan-exclusive features. This includes clan projects, clan hunts, and a clan social space.
Is an internet connection necessary for solo players? Even though The Division 2 offers a lot for single players, it is still an online shooter. You need a constant internet connection to connect to the game servers. If the servers are offline, you cannot play.
Is The Division 2 worth it as a single player? As a single player, you get an extensive campaign, many open-world activities, and plenty of things to discover in The Division 2. Whether the endgame will be frustrating or fun for solo players due to its difficulty remains to be seen. Nevertheless – solo players have plenty to do.
After release, there will also be free expansions in which single players will likely enjoy new main missions and additional content:
The developers of Apex Legends have spoken out about the cheaters and crashes in their game. There was clarification in a large Reddit thread.
What was said? Respawn spoke in the subreddit of Apex Legends and provided insights into the past weeks.
The developers reported how many cheaters have been banned in recent weeks and what they plan to do about crashes in the game moving forward.
This is what players say about it: The Reddit thread was received quite positively, and many players acknowledge Respawn’s efforts.
This is what Respawn reported on Reddit
This is what they say about cheaters: Thanks to their “Easy-Anti-Cheat” system, Respawn has already banned over 355,000 hackers. This is already a significant success, but they want to keep going.
Many streamers have already complained about the cheaters.
Even the streamer Dizzy was caught by a hacker
This is how it should continue: Respawn is issuing a challenge for the coming weeks. They write: “The service works, but the fight against cheaters is an ongoing war that we must continue to adapt to and remain very vigilant. We take cheating very seriously and care about the health of Apex Legends for all players.”
Additionally, more staff will be assigned to the fight against cheaters, and the developers plan to work with other companies and learn from their systems against hackers.
This is what is planned: They also plan to involve the players of Apex Legends. Soon there will be a reporting system that allows players to report cheaters directly to the “Easy-Anti-Cheat System”.
This is what they say about the crashes: They continue to work on the crashes. Respawn will be visited next week by AMD, a major supplier of computer chips. Thus, similar to what is being done with Nvidia, work is being done on stability.
Apex Legends is expected to cause fewer crashes soon. This is well received.
Moreover, several fixes will be coming soon that should prevent crashes. Nevertheless, Respawn also says that there is still much work ahead of them, but they will continue to work on it.
This is how players react to the news: There is almost universally positive sentiment in the Reddit thread. Players are happy that Respawn listens so much to their community and continues to strive for improvements.
This cheater was not caught by Respawn, but revealed himself:
Today, Update 1.03 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One is coming for Anthem . The update includes numerous changes and improvements – and it should alleviate PS4 players’ fears about logging in. We take a look at the patch notes and translate them into English.
What kind of update is this? This is essentially the first “bug fixes and quality of life improvements” update for Anthem. It has the version number 1.0.3.
BioWare addresses many issues with Anthem in the patch that arose in the first days after release and are concerning players.
Initially, this update was supposed to be released on March 12, but BioWare has released it earlier, likely so that people can play over the weekend. Some were worried about even starting Anthem on PS4.
When will the patch come? The patch is coming today, March 9.
With the patch, one should expect downtime between 2 PM and 4 PM German time (7 AM – 9 AM Central Time).
These are the 4 important changes:
They are loosening the respawn restrictions: In the “non-endgame” missions, the timer is now set to 10 seconds. In strongholds, legendary missions, and other endgame activities, the timer is 30 seconds, and it remains the same in freeplay. Before, players had to wait idly until another player
In Destiny 2, the Season of the Wanderer has begun. With the new content came new lore that seems to suggest that players are suspects in the murder of Cayde-6.
Why is there an investigation? In the Season of the Wanderer, everything in Destiny 2 revolves around the titular Gambit leader. While players are excited that the mysterious guy has brought a new competitive mode to the Tower, other Guardians are skeptical.
In the new lore published by Bungie for the new season on their website, a Warlock of the Praxic Order attempts to have the Wanderer banished from the Last City. Warlock Aunor goes so far as to investigate the death of Cayde-6 with the help of our characters!
Is our Guardian involved in the death of Cayde-6?
Why should the Wanderer disappear? Warlock Aunor is trying in the new lore to convince the city’s leaders to remove the Wanderer from the Tower immediately. In their opinion, the Gambit leader poses a danger as great as that from Ghaul or the Taken King, Oryx.
The Wanderer would normalize interactions with the Taken. Some Guardians might have even turned rogue under the Wanderer’s influence and assumed the title ‘Dredgen’.
According to Aunor, the Wanderer is causing the Guardians to use the Taken as a weapon against other Guardians. And supposedly with the goal of killing their opposing Guardians.
According to the Praxic Order, the Wanderer brings corruption to the Tower.
Have Guardians died? While Zavala insists that no Guardians have died without returning, the lore proves the opposite: The Wanderer hires a team of Guardians to test his latest creation, Gambit Prime.
Three Guardians lost their lives during the test, and the Wanderer didn’t even flinch. Instead, he used the data from this test run to further adjust and improve the new mode.
Why should our Guardian be a murderer? After Aunor hits a brick wall with the city’s leaders regarding the banishment of the Wanderer, she checks the data from Cayde’s ghost to see if our Guardian had anything to do with the death of the Hunter leader.
Cayde was killed by the eight Barons at the beginning of Forsaken.
In the end, Aunor cannot prove any involvement from our Guardian. However, the fact that the Warlock conducted an investigation has also been noticed by the Wanderer, who enjoys eavesdropping on the city’s leaders in various disguises.
That the Gambit leader gets wind of the investigation was even intentional: Aunor is one of Ikora’s hidden agents. The two Warlocks know exactly that the Wanderer loves to hang around different places, gathering information about the events in the Tower.
What this means for the Tower, the Wanderer, or our Guardian is still not clear.

The Elder
Scrolls Online will soon celebrate the Fool’s Festival. There will be some extremely silly pets, costumes, and mounts.
What is the Fool’s Festival? From the end of March to early April, the Fool’s Festival takes place in ESO. It’s a kind of carnival in Tamriel, where the inhabitants of the world indulge in all kinds of jokes and mischief reigns.
In addition to in-game events, there will be special shop offers.
The next pet in ESO rocks!
What ridiculous offers are coming to the shop? To celebrate the Fool’s Festival, there will be a lot of new offers related to it in the ESO cash shop:
Sheogorath Statue: Until April 4, you can get the statue of the mad Daedric Prince Sheogorath. ESO Plus members can even get it for free!
Ponies: From March 21 to April 2, you can buy a pony as a mount. If you don’t like horses, you can also get dragons and a Guar lizard.
Fool’s Costume: If you want to frolic around as a grinning, colorful jester, you can get the fool’s costume during the short period from March 25 to 28. Additionally, there are separate fool caps, including the notorious “ass-with-ears fool cap”.
Fool’s Cap Monkey: From March 25 to 28, there’s also a cute little monkey as a pet. It wears a fool’s cap and is ready for all sorts of fun.
This is the highlight of the Fool’s Festival: All these cool items will be overshadowed by a pet that is unmatched in absurdity and is certainly one of a kind in the history of MMORPGs: the Pebble Friend!
Yes, this pet is a stone!
This is a pet that is absolutely low-maintenance and undemanding. No wonder, because the Pebble Friend is a stone! That’s right, you simply get a rock as a pet that follows you and otherwise does what stones do.
If you want to get the Pebble Friend, you should check the Crown Store of ESO between March 21 and April 2.
Wasn’t there something like this before? A similar pet was already in Guild Wars 2. However, the stone there had eyes and somehow lived. In ESO, they take it a step further and actually bring a stone!
Will you get the stone as a pet or do you think that’s too silly?
In Pokémon GO substantial changes have been made to the map with the latest update 0.137.1. We show you what is new and what features have also been added.
The change concerns: With the latest update, an updated version of the OSM map has also been included. Niantic relies on this map and creates the in-game map accordingly.
This change has also removed the mega nests that were appearing all over the world. Players can now play better in these areas.
This is also new: In addition to the redesign of the map, there are also numerous other features that have been added. You can now enter more commands into the search bar.
This is how the map changes
This is new on the map: The map update is not directly related to the update, however, this, like the update, was updated on the night of March 8th.
Check your region. There may be more spawns.
New streets and paths have been added, which could become new spawn points in the future
New areas have received spawn points
Some nests have been revised or newly added
Mega nests have been removed
This is the situation with the mega nests: The most popular mega nests in Germany are in Berlin. On one hand, the entire southwest of the city is a large nest, on the other hand, the whole west of the city.
This is due to a marking on the OSM map. This area was marked in such a way that Niantic’s system recognized it as a nest. Therefore, these areas were adopted.
This is now new: With the update of the OSM map, there are no more mega nests. The markings that had indicated the nests have been removed. Players in these regions can now catch significantly more different Pokémon than before.
This is what the huge nest in Berlin looked like back then. This is now history. Source: Spieletrend
These features are also new in the update
In addition to the major change to the OSM map, there are also smaller features that came with the update. We present the highlights here:
New search terms can be entered into the bar
“baby” shows all baby Pokémon in your list
“hatched” shows all Pokémon from eggs
“withitem” shows all Pokémon that can be evolved with evolution items
The Spinda form from the Valentine’s Day event will now be displayed in the PokéDex; as well as 11 more slots for forms that will come

A streamer has now been banned on Twitch for cheating in his matches while playing Apex Legends. In the end, he was caught in his own streams.
This is the streamer in question: The Argentine streamer “MOBADOS” regularly hosts streams on Twitch. However, some viewers noticed that he was hitting unexpectedly well. He shoots so accurately that some viewers believe that third-party software must have been used.
On Reddit, some players discussed this, and Twitch reacted: They banned the streamer from their platform.
How the streamer caught himself
How it all came to light: Some of the Argentine’s streams were just too good. He easily took down opponents and hardly missed a shot.
One stream, in particular, stood out:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSPCvQk-oeg
For many players, this behavior could only be explained by someone using cheats.
They asked about it in the comments, but the streamer quickly deleted those inquiries. This made the situation even more peculiar.
What players suspect: On Reddit, a player shared the noticeable clips from the stream and received much support for it. Many players are convinced that the Argentine used two pieces of software:
Aimlock: This software makes aiming easier. It directly targets the opponent, and even if they move, they cannot be lost from the crosshairs.
Norecoil: This prevents almost all weapon recoil, allowing for straight shooting.
This fueled the rumors: Under the Reddit post, an older video of the streamer was also shown, where cheating was a topic as well. In it, you can see more clips that confirm his cheating:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPSzNwl1jms
This is how Twitch reacted: After all the commotion surrounding MOBADOS, the streaming platform also reacted. They quickly closed the channel of the Argentine. Now he can no longer stream there.
He was previously a “Partnered Streamer” on Twitch – the closure of his channel means a significant setback for him.
Respawn has already announced that they want to take stronger action against cheaters:
Many players in Anthem have reached the endgame and are chasing masterwork and legendary items. A player now claims to have discovered the magic formula for item drops: It’s the enemies!
What’s so great about 44 legendaries?On the Anthem Subreddit, the player moosee999 states that he has received 44 legendary items in 50 hours. That’s quite something, as Reddit often features reports from freelancers who, after over 100 hours in Anthem, have yet to see a single legendary item.
In moosee999’s opinion, he has so many powerful items because he has figured out that the drop rate in Freeplay heavily relies on the enemies you are fighting.
Do players really have less chance of getting powerful items in activities?
This is what the player claims to have discovered: According to the player, the different enemies are divided into different classes: foes associated with a task, event, or quest, and enemies that can simply be encountered in Freeplay. An exception here are Titans, Ursix, Enlightened, and Fury, which seem to have their own loot pool.
Enemies that are tied to a task or event supposedly have a lower chance of dropping a legendary item. Players might only hope for the reward chest that appears upon completion of the activity.
Random enemies are said to have a higher chance of dropping legendary gear, as they are not bound to events or loot chests.
Titans seem to possess their own loot pool just like Ursix, Enlightened, and Fury.
How did the player test this? The player went to the Eidolon tree in Freeplay and fought with the two Scar camps there. If all enemies are defeated, elite enemies appear. If all elite enemies are killed, a Brute appears, which always drops loot.
Next, he went to the Stronghold Tyranny Mine and claims that the Brutes in that stronghold only occasionally have loot. In his opinion, this is because the enemies there are part of the Echo tasks, which are rewarded with a chest at the end.
The freelancer claims to have spent 80 percent of the time on difficulty level GM1.
This is what the player recommends: moosee999 states that all his 44 legendaries come from random enemies in Freeplay or the four super enemies Titans, Ursix, Enlightened, and Fury. Allegedly, none of his items came from enemies from World Events or task-related enemies in strongholds. However, he has already pulled legendary items from reward chests.
Most of his items were obtained through the various enemy camps in the open world. But also the mini-dungeons in Freeplay, known as “Hidden Places,” should be quite fruitful according to him. Players should look out for elite enemies as well as legendary creatures.
Here’s another efficient method to obtain masterwork and legendary items:
A MMORPG guild in the classic Everquest apparently paid rapper Ice-T to record a message. He harshly insults the guild’s rivals and flames them in a video message.
What is this about? Apparently, the guilds “Amtrak” and “Faceless” are at odds with each other in some way.
On a special, time-limited progression server of Everquest (1999), the two guilds are competing in an “epic battle” to contest dominance on a new server, as reported by mmorpg. It will likely be about who becomes the number one guild on the server.
This is happening to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Everquest on the server “Selo.” The server will open on March 16th and then gradually progress through the various expansions of Everquest on the first Wednesday of each month, receiving new content.
Both guilds apparently intend to claim this server for themselves. This has already been made clear in advance.
And it seems that the Faceless guild has decided to spice up the rivalry with some “trash talk.”
Therefore, they posted a video titled “Message for Amtrak” in the forum of the progression server.
For $200, the rapper and actor Ice-T can be booked.
This is what Ice-T says: He starts off by saying that the “motherfuckers” from Amtrak have no idea how to play video games. If those little bitches aren’t ready by the 16th, they’ll have a real problem. Because Faceless would destroy them, drag them around, and make sure they stop playing video games.
Then the motherfuckers would have more time to read books. They must have missed that because they just play games all the time, according to Ice-T.
Everquest is turning 20 this year and is celebrating it with progression servers.
This is the reaction: Generally, everyone is quite excited about the creative idea of involving a celebrity to spice things up.
The participants are having fun – and those not involved say “I would love to play on Selo.”
On the website Cameo, a video from Ice-T can be booked.
Why is Ice-T doing this? It is a service he offers. You can order a video from Ice-T through the website “Cameo.” It costs $200.
This is mostly used to send an extravagant birthday greeting. Faceless apparently had other plans.
This is Ice-T: Ice-T is now 61 and started early in the 80s as a rapper. In recent years, he has mainly been seen as an actor in the TV series “Law and Order: Special Victims Unit,” where he plays the police officer Odafin “Fin” Tutuola.
Apex Legends currently only offers the option to join a squad of three players. If you queue alone, you get two “randoms”, and it often doesn’t go well. If you’re struggling with your teammates, we have 7 tips for better rounds.
Why the tips? Our tips are designed to help you win more easily. We will show you tricks and techniques that can help you perform better in your rounds and generally create a better game for you and your teammates.
[toc]
1. Use meaningful Pings
One of the most important things in Apex Legends and any other battle royale is communication. If your team doesn’t communicate and point things out, you have little chance of winning.
Use it to share important information with your teammates. Point out weapons or ammo, mark enemies or locations that have already been looted, to possibly adjust your route. The important thing is: ping wisely. No one needs a Mozambique. Don’t forget that you have more than one different ping for various situations in the selection wheel.
The various pings in Apex Legends.
2. Stay close together
A mistake many players make is going too far away from their teammates. If you play solo, it’s possible that the other two players are playing together. They might be in voice chat together and have better communication.
So, just stay close to them, even if you may have developed a seemingly better plan than your teammates might have. Together you are always stronger and your chances of winning are higher.
Just make sure you’re spread out enough to cover a lot of ground and not steal loot from each other. At the same time, you should stay close enough to support each other when things get rough.
The map of Apex Legends is large. Don’t spread out too much.
3. Use your abilities for the team
Each legend in Apex Legends has unique abilities. The abilities are more or less useful and better or worse in certain situations. The important thing is that you know them and use them correctly.
If you play the popular healer Lifeline, use your healing and her Care Package not just for yourself but for the team. A well-equipped and strengthened team is advantageous in encounters with other players.
Make sure to use your abilities sensibly. Wraith’s portal can be used for attacking, escaping, or even as a trap. Legends such as Bangalore and Bloodhound have a strong synergy. Take advantage of that.
Pathfinder’s abilities are widely considered useless, but even a zipline can have its benefits when used correctly.
4. Distribute the loot wisely
When you’ve just landed and want to loot, the loot should be distributed as evenly as possible. You gain nothing if you are already running around with two good weapons while your teammates have nothing or only a Mozambique, which is so bad that a meme culture has developed around it.
If every teammate has at least one decent weapon, fights go better. You also don’t have the problem of having to loot your teammates while enemies are still swarming around you. The likelihood is higher that the enemies have already been killed or at least heavily wounded enough to no longer pose a threat.
The distribution is also important later on. Distribute the loot evenly and let the player with the largest backpack carry health items. Give the appropriate ammo to those who need it and share the loot. A good rule of thumb is:
4-5 slots for ammo, depending on weapons
One slot each for a whole stack of every healing and shield item
In Apex Legends, there are many ways to win and many tactics you can use to achieve that. However, if you play solo, it often happens that your teammates can’t or won’t tell you how they are playing.
Keep an eye on how they behave. If they play aggressively, you might do well to support them from a distance as a sniper. If they play defensively, you should stay close to them and only attack together.
Even if you play solo, you’re not alone. Your team is with you and helps, just as you should help your team. If you get knocked down, even instantly killed, or don’t get your preferred legend, don’t just leave the game.
Give your teammates a chance to revive you or show you that they are better than you think. If you leave the game, you are exactly that player who frustrates you in your rounds. This may also promote your current teammates to behave the same way.
If you stay in the game, you’ll have both more exciting rounds and a higher chance of finishing the match with a win or at least a higher placement.
If someone just quits, it can be very frustrating.
7. Plan your fights carefully
One of the most important tips, which applies not only to solo players, is the planning of fights. It is more about which fight you should seek and which you should avoid. As a general rule: Don’t seek an encounter that you cannot win.
It is important to pay attention to where your team is and how your teammates are doing. If you are alone or your colleagues are injured or poorly equipped, avoid enemies. If you are armed to the teeth, attack and dismantle your opponents together.
Running headfirst into a group of enemies won’t get you far if you don’t have support. Only start a fight when you’re about to attack together or pull back when you sense that no support is coming from your colleagues.
Good teamwork helps to win.
