On Tuesday, October 30, the next patch for Destiny 2 will be released for PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. The primary goal of the update is to reduce player frustration by making Destiny 2 more generous. The game has been stingy with important resources.
Experts like YouTuber Datto even say that Forsaken is better than The Taken King. In general, it is believed that Forsaken has saved Destiny 2 after a weak first year.
However, there is a trend that bothers many: Destiny 2 is extremely stingy. A loot shooter without fresh loot leads to disappointments. In addition, there are many little things that cause frustration. These difficulties have piled up over the past few weeks.
This is special about the update: Since the release of Forsaken, Bungie has addressed many issues but has changed very little in the game.
Many of the changes Bungie announced in recent months are only now actually coming to Destiny 2 next week.
This is actually the first time Bungie can make specific improvements to Forsaken. The patch from two weeks ago did resolve some issues, but it was more about bringing new content. Bungie will tackle many of the “big problems” only on Tuesday.
Destiny 2 – Loot Shooter with Too Little Loot
Three points particularly bother the Guardians:
Players simply get too few new exotics – Many complain they haven’t seen a new exotic in Forsaken after hundreds of hours
This is what we expect from the patch: If all these changes come, some of Destiny 2’s main problems should be resolved. However, one criticism remains: Many Guardians criticize that, in general, the loot pool in Destiny 2 is too small. There could still be more types of weapons.
When will the patch be released? The patch is expected on Tuesday evening. Full patch notes are expected around Tuesday at 6 PM, it is said. We will report on MeinMMO about it.
The game SCUM on Steam takes its claim to realism seriously. Therefore, they plan to introduce heart attacks soon. The reason is a 400-kilo colossus that feeds on zombie fat and simply won’t stop getting fatter.
This player is the focus: In SCUM, there is a player who has set a goal to become as fat as possible. And he is incredibly successful at it.
The player moves in SCUM as little as possible and hunts zombies to feed on their fat. He has identified this as the most efficient way to accumulate kilograms.
The player is currently this fat: In the past 2 months, the player has bulked up to 400 kg. With a gigantic calorie intake and very low expenditure, he breaks the limits of the simulation.
SCUM wants to change this: In a conversation with PC Gamer, Graeme Struthers from publisher Devolver Digital announces that the developers have become aware of the problem and are planning countermeasures:
“There is a guy on reddit who has attracted a lot of attention because he wanted to determine the most efficient way to get fat. The result of that is a heart attack because in real life, you would also reach that point. These things are now being added to the game, so there will be an end to consuming zombie fat soon.”
A heart for the fat: Struthers offers hope to the giant. He states that the introduction of heart attacks does not necessarily mean the end. He could also go on a diet and eat better.
That would also be a way to attract attention on reddit: with a diet book and a training plan for physical fitness.
However, it is still unknown when heart attacks will come to SCUM. In the next patch, vehicles are to be added to SCUM first. A tractor and an SUV are already confirmed.
The balance between the tanks in World of Warcraft is changing. We will tell you what will change for the individual classes.
Anyone currently trying to learn tanking in World of Warcraft and guide their friends safely through raids or “Mythic+” dungeons will have already noticed that some tanks are more popular than others. Especially monks and death knights are currently in demand as they require little healing and thus give the healer time to deal some damage themselves. This massively speeds up many dungeons.
Meanwhile, other tanks feel neglected, such as warriors or druids. Therefore, there are some changes in Patch 8.1 Tides of Vengeance to bring the various tanks back “in line”.
Changes for Guardian Druids: Guardian druids deal less damage compared to other tanks and are therefore quite unpopular. Some changes should improve this. So far it looks like this:
All damage dealt is increased by 12%.
The cooldown of Thrash is reduced to 60 seconds (previously: 2 minutes).
Ursol’s Vortex is now available starting at level 30 (previously: level 63).
Changes for Protection Warriors: Protection warriors are currently quite unreliable and feel a bit clumsy. These changes should ensure stronger warriors who do not easily fall:
Clench is no longer affected by the global cooldown, but has a cooldown of 0.5 seconds.
Shield Block now has a cooldown of only 16 seconds (previously 18 seconds).
Frontline Fighter (Passive) increases stamina by 45% (previously 40%) and the armor gained from strength by 55% (previously 50%).
Changes for Blood Death Knights: For death knights with the Blood specialization, a lot is changing, as they are currently too strong. Some of their talents are getting new limits so they are not as effective as before. Specifically, the following changes are being made:
Veteran of the 3rd War (Passive) no longer increases armor by 15%.
Bone Shield increases armor by an additional 10% of strength.
Bone Storm heals a maximum of 15% per second (previously unlimited based on the number of enemies).
Will of the Necropolis activates only below 30% (previously 35%) and reduces damage taken by 30% (previously 35%).
Changes for Brewmaster Monks: Anyone playing a monk is currently living in the golden age of tanks, as hardly any tank is easier to heal. This is mainly due to the “Inevitability” mechanic, which spreads damage over several seconds. This is now being slightly toned down:
Inevitability now mitigates on average 3.5% less damage.
Iron Skin Brew increases the damage mitigated by Inevitability on average by 2% more than before.
Changes for Protection Paladins: Protection paladins are currently in a good position, but they will receive a small “Quality of Life” improvement. Because in emergencies, the protection paladin must also heal and assist spontaneously, which will be made easier with this change:
Hand of Protection now heals the target for up to 200% extra, based on the missing hit points of the target (previously: based on the paladin’s own missing hit points).
Please keep in mind that these changes are still information from the PTR. The details may change before the release of Patch 8.1.
Which tank do you currently prefer? What do you play yourself or which do you prefer to heal?

Our author Jürgen has not been in Fortnite: Battle Royale for a few weeks. Now he is back and does not recognize Fortnite with the zombies from “Nightmares” anymore. What happened?
That’s why I was out of Fortnite: I haven’t been in Fortnite for the last few weeks. On one hand, there was the launch of Black Ops 4, which I had to follow for professional reasons.
How was the zombie mode for me? After I hadn’t seen much of zombies in solo mode before someone shot me, I started a squad round with randoms. We landed in Tilted Towers and looted everything we could.
Finally zombies: While looting, I suddenly heard horrific moaning. A cube fragment had appeared in the middle of the city, and creepy purple undead came out!
Eat lead, zombie!
My team and I let our weapons do the talking, and with every zombie that hit the ground, there was cool extra loot.
Oh no, a Wick! But the shooting attracted other players, and an enemy group flanked us. I wanted to go around them and ran into my arch-enemy: John Wick!
The carriers of this skin are now rare, but there was apparently still one.
Die, Wick!
I was already looking forward to shooting Wick from behind, but I missed. Several times! Shooting at mindless zombies had made me sloppy!
This, of course, Wick noticed, turned around, and gave me a few shots with the new firearm.
Wick’s revenge!
Death by Wick: Like his counterpart in the movie, Wick then strolled over to my helpless character and brutally shot her point-blank.
Ideal for casuals like me!
Killing zombies is a blast!
The new mode is fun! But this shameful defeat couldn’t stop me, and I started more rounds in the zombie mode. Because the mix of PvE and PvP was just my thing.
I had already enjoyed this in Blackout in Black Ops 4, as there I had thanks to a nice zombie my first kill.
For me as a casual player, it is simply a blast to occasionally:
… blow away a zombie and have more success experiences.
drive full speed through the zombie horde with the Quad Crasher!
lure the zombies like in the PvE mode “Save the World” to traps and laugh maliciously as the stupid undead are taken apart.
fall on an opposing team while they are currently battling a large boss zombie and then take the gold loot from the boss.
The thickest and toughest zombies give legendary gold loot.
However, I also understand that some players who prefer to play Fortnite “seriously” are currently not having fun with Fortnite anymore. There is currently no regular mode outside of tournaments and the recently returned team mode, and the zombies can really be annoying, especially in the endgame.
But I enjoy it more this way!
The disco is awesome!
Even cooler than the zombies, I found the new mass combat mode Disco Domination. In it, large teams fight to conquer and hold five dance floors with their moves. That’s pretty crazy, but actually just a typical domination mode with dance emotes.
But Disco Domination has a special feature: You have respawns until the last phase.
I was initially skeptical, but it all worked wonderfully. As an enthusiastic but quite clumsy casual gamer, I often got shot quickly in Fortnite and rarely achieved successes.
With respawns, however, dying was not a big deal; I could immediately start with all my stuff again and just keep shooting like Rambo.
This way I also got a few kills and could easily complete the annoying and virtually impossible minigun challenge for me in the regular mode.
Fun shooting without worries: I had tons of ammunition thanks to the different loot rules and could just keep spraying fire at a horde of enemies. Kills came in quick succession because in Disco Domination everyone plays much more offensively and carelessly than usual. After all, you come back right away, and dying is not a big deal.
Whee! As soon as you die, you go back into the chaos!
Black Ops 4 has tough competition: This makes Fortnite even faster and more dynamic. Just the way I always wanted it. And this, while I was just wanting to switch to Black Ops 4. But with these new game modes, Epic has managed to make Fortnite my favorite once again. It is currently just as much fun for me as on the first day.
Your opinion on the current Fortnite: But enough about me and my new enthusiasm for Fortnite. How do you find the gameplay right now? Are the new modes a joy for you, or do you get annoyed that you can’t play most of the regular modes or the 50vs50 mode right now?
The hat is especially important in Red Dead Redemption 2. Without it, you just feel naked – but players often lose it and despair.
If you want to be a real cowboy, you also need a proper hat in Red Dead Redemption 2. Without it, the appearance is simply not complete and you feel somewhat naked in the game world. Owning a hat is easy – keeping it, however, is relatively difficult! RDR 2 becomes easier if you follow these tips.
Time and again, the hat is shot off during battles, flies off during acrobatic maneuvers, or rolls away into the prairie in a careless moment.
Of course, you could simply get a new hat and put it on from the nearest adversary, but most players are attached to their headgear and desperately try to find it again. This leads to many posts on Twitter, like this one:
“Every morning, I leave my camp with my hat and every evening I have no idea what happened to it …”
“Help, I lost my hat. It was knocked off my head during a fight in a mission, and I didn’t notice until the end of the mission and now I’m a hatless cowboy. I just can’t go on like this, how do I get a new hat?”
The whole “problem” has escalated to the point that even a new Twitter hashtag has emerged: #hatproblems. If you have no other problems in a game, that’s already a pretty good sign, right?
Here’s how to get your hat back: In your horse’s item menu, you can retrieve the hat at any time.
What about you? Do you still own your first hat? Or have you lost and replaced it multiple times? Does it bother you to walk around without a hat?
The Blizzcon 2018 is just around the corner. We will tell you what players of World of Warcraft can expect.
In a week, Blizzard’s in-house fair will take place. At BlizzCon 2018, on November 2nd and 3rd, many news about the MMORPG World of Warcraft will be revealed. We give a first preview of what players can expect – and where they should rather temper their expectations.
No new expansion
For most fans, this should be clear for a long time, as Battle for Azeroth is only a few months old. In any case, players of World of Warcraft should not expect any information about the next expansion.
It is still too early in the lifecycle of Battle for Azeroth to talk about the next addon – after all, we are still at Patch 8.0 in the live version.
Patch 8.2 and Patch 8.3 – the next targets
The biggest revelations for World of Warcraft will concern the upcoming two major patches. With the events in Patch 8.1 Tides of Vengeance, which are currently visible on the PTR, many players already have an idea of which direction the story is heading.
The focus will shift more towards the old gods and Azshara. After all, the storyline of the Stormsong Valley makes it clear that a growing threat is about to strike.
There are already many speculations, and we consider these to be the most likely:
Patch 8.2 – The emergence of Queen Azshara
Patch 8.2 tells the story of Azshara and the Naga. After all, she is the “Queen” of the old god N’Zoth, as we recently learned in the “Warbringer: Azshara” video.
It was also hinted beforehand that Azshara will basically be the “Gul’dan” of Battle for Azeroth. Therefore, she will be a raid boss in Patch 8.2.
A new raid must, however, take place in a new area, and that will probably come with Patch 8.2. Our tip here is the sunken city of Nazjatar, which may be raised from the waves.
This would be the perfect time to give Azshara a bit more lore. As we quest through Nazjatar, we could learn more about Azshara’s motivations and her connection to N’Zoth, before we defeat her in her palace.
Patch 8.3 – The fight against N’Zoth
Since Azshara, even as the queen, is only an ally of N’Zoth, he will probably be the final boss of Battle for Azeroth. It is also possible that there will be a new area, perhaps part of the “Black Empire”, which once nearly covered all of Azeroth.
In the depths of the seas, there are still many ruins of that (which we also saw in the Warbringer video). Several hints suggest that something is happening there.
Since old gods feed on the death and madness of other beings, the Alliance and Horde might contribute the last “spark” to awaken the Black Empire – a great naval battle between the fleets of Kul Tiras and Zandalar comes to mind. Perhaps during this battle, the heroes will be sucked into the depths and land in the influence of the old gods.
What we can really expect in Patch 8.2 and 8.3 will likely be revealed this coming weekend at BlizzCon. Those without a virtual ticket will, of course, be informed by us promptly about the new announcements.
The “small stuff” that comes with it
In addition to the major content patches, there will surely be smaller updates and features that will also expand World of Warcraft.
New allied races
Players are particularly excited about the Vulpera and Sethrak, both of which primarily occur in Vol’dun.
Both races are represented quite extensively in the game files and even have their own sound files for various actions that are usually reserved for players. It seems to be only a matter of time before Sethrak and Vulpera will be playable.
Warfronts – many are still to come
There will probably also be some new warfronts. Currently, there is only the Arathi Highlands and soon the Darkshore, but hints of a battle for Quel’thalas (Silvermoon) have already been found in the game data, and things could get heated in the Barrens as well.
Since warfronts are one of the major features, 2-3 more will surely appear during Battle for Azeroth.
The 8.x.5 patches
Since Legion, Blizzard has been trying to introduce small “interim patches”, such as 8.1.5 or 8.2.5, to add some content and features that do not necessarily belong to the major content updates. These are usually smaller events (like the micro-holidays) or the return of the war guild. At least the latter will certainly be reactivated for Battle for Azeroth and will entice players with new rewards and exciting battles.
Also, one or the other heritage armor could find its way into the 5-patch cycle. The first to do so are the blood elves in Patch 8.1 and dwarves, but other races will surely follow until all have their heritage armor.
World of Warcraft: Classic – A release date?
There will surely be one or another announcement regarding WoW: Classic at BlizzCon. It seems likely that Blizzard will do a “This is where we’re at” panel and explain which details have been agreed upon for the classic version of World of Warcraft.
However, it may still be too early for a definitive release date. If all goes well, we may at least get a “In year X” from Blizzard – but even that is pure speculation.
In the meantime, everyone can make do with the demo – if they have purchased a virtual ticket.
What are your guesses and speculations for BlizzCon regarding World of Warcraft?

Good packs can be very expensive in FIFA 19 With the Hazard SBC, you can secure a “Rare Player Pack” for about 25,000 coins.
This is the Hazard SBC: Eden Hazard is the “Premier League Player of the Month” (POTM) for September. As with every POTM, you can secure Hazard in an extensive SBC – this also applies to the Bundesliga POTM Marco Reus. The current Premier League POTM SBC consists of seven segments.
This is the problem: Completing the entire SBC is extremely expensive. It costs a total of about 650,000 coins. An effort that most players can likely only manage if they have drawn a player like Cristiano Ronaldo, who brings in more than a million coins. However, if you still want to tackle it, you can find some solutions at futbin that you can follow.
How to get the 50k Pack
The bargain in the SBC: You can also profit from the Hazard SBC with fewer coins: For the sub-task “Chelsea,” you get a “Rare Player Pack” that usually costs 50,000 coins.
The catch: The players you need to exchange for the SBC cost significantly less. They all must be from Chelsea FC, and your team should have an overall rating of 83 and a chemistry of 90.
How to solve the Chelsea SBC: On the FIFA page futbin has several approaches to mastering the sub-SBC. These variants all cost about 30,000 coins – depending on market developments, this price can fluctuate. Prices are usually a bit higher on weekends due to increased demand. Generally, the best bargains can be made at night.
If you already have one or two Chelsea players in your club, you can drive the price down further. Several players report on reddit having spent only about 25,000 coins. Especially untradeable players that you do not use can be profitably gotten rid of in this SBC. For example, with this solution:
What the “Rare Player Pack” brings: As with any other pack, whether the investment is worth it is determined by luck. You can also draw players from a “Rare Player Pack” that are worth significantly less. However, it is also possible to get one of the best players in FIFA 19.
In our overview of the best packs, you can see that this pack is at least among the best in the game in terms of value for money. With a bit of luck, you can make a good profit with the sub-SBC. You can find more ways to earn a lot of coins here:
The second semi-final of the LoL Worlds 2018 has been decided. With Fnatic, a team from Europe advances to the final. This is the first time since 2011 that an EU team is in the finals of the League of Legends World Championship.
Update 28.10: The second semi-final of the LoL Worlds 2018 was played this morning, on 28.10, between Fnatic from Europe and the US team Cloud 9. It was a clear matter from the first minutes on.
This is how the 2nd semi-final of the LoL Worlds 2018 went: Fnatic completely dismantled Cloud 9, giving the Americans no chance.
Due to the current meta, the team that gains an early lead often wins in League of Legends. This is called “snowballing” or an avalanche effect, where a small advantage keeps growing. The games between Fnatic and Cloud 9 seemed to be one-sided.
Fnatic won the encounter with Cloud 9 clearly with 3-0.

That’s why this is a surprise: In this match, the favorite, Fnatic, won. Overall, the tournament course of the LoL Worlds 2018 is highly unusual. It was already considered a sensation that 3 “non-Asia” teams were in the semi-finals.
After the elimination of 5 teams from Asia, Fnatic will face the Chinese team Invictus Gaming in the final. The last time a European team made it to the finals was in 2011, in the prehistoric times of League of Legends. Back then, it was also Fnatic who even won the Worlds 2011.
From 2012 to 2017, the winner always came from Asia. Even in 2018, Invictus Gaming from China is considered the favorite to win.

This morning, on 27.10, the first semi-final of the LoL Worlds 2018 took place. G2 Esports faced Invictus Gaming in the semi-finals of the World Championship of League of Legends. The killing of favorites came to an end this time. Invictus Gaming with top laner TheShy advances to the final.
Crazy Worlds so far: The Worlds in League of Legends have been so crazy that in the prediction game “LoL Pick Em 2018”, there was only one out of 3.8 million who guessed correctly. And even that person was mistaken for the first time.
The super tipster had bet on the underdogs from Spain in today’s match between the Spanish team G2 Esports and the Chinese team Invictus Gaming. But nothing could be won with that bet today.
This is how the first semi-final went: This morning saw a so-called “stomp.” This is what it’s called in League of Legends when one team overruns the other. Invictus Gaming played as aggressively as one expects from them. All three matches ended in less than 30 minutes:
In the first match, the ADC of the Chinese team, “JackeyLove”, dominated with Lucian, achieving 6 kills. Invictus Gaming dominated the match with 16-4 kills.
In the second match, top laner “TheShy” on Jayce and “Rookie” on LeBlanc from the Chinese team shone, securing 14 of 18 kills for their team.
In the third match, G2 started strong, but in the end, it wasn’t enough. Again, the top laner from Invictus Gaming, “TheShy”, managed to end the match for his team. This time on Aatrox.
The most important scene: In the decisive scene of the third match, Invictus Gaming actually wanted to retreat before a team fight, but TheShy decided to attack. And that “led to a good result,” as he explains in an interview with Inven.

With the elimination of G2 Esports, the last German participant in the LoL Worlds 2018 is also out. Coach Fabian “GrabbZ” Lohmann misses the opportunity to reach the final. He writes on Twitter that IG was simply the better team.

You have no friends to practice your skills in the Playground of Fortnite: Battle Royale? No problem! Epic has significantly enhanced the Playground with the 6.20 update, now giving lone wolves the chance to become a Fortnite pro or at least improve.
Why is the Playground so great for training? Unlike the normal Battle Royale mode, you can do whatever you want in the Playground without being disturbed by 99 bloodthirsty opponents. You also have significantly more time before the storm sets in. Additionally, you will find many more items and building materials in the Playground.
The mode is therefore perfect for sharpening your shooting skills or building abilities. Until now, the Playground could only be efficiently used with friends. With the 6.20 update, solo players can now also benefit from the Playground.
Pocket Challenges – The practical items resembling pocket fortresses come with the mini-games obstacle course, building challenge, and shooting range.
Thorn Stadium 2 – The new Thorn Stadium returns with an improved spawn system and offers vending machines for traps and grenades.
Pocket Pirate Ship – The pirate ship can be built from wood and metal and is a team-based mini-game where you must destroy the opposing ship.
Especially the Pocket Challenges are interesting for solo players, as you can train all the skills needed for Fortnite with these mini-games – solo!
Where can you find the vending machines for the Pocket Challenges? You can find the machines at the southern edge of Loot Lake. The catch: You get the items for free!
With the pickaxe, you can choose the desired mini-game. Furthermore, you will find the mini-games in various rarities.
This way, you will find a vending machine for each rarity, i.e., common (gray), uncommon (green), rare (blue), epic (purple), and legendary (orange). As rarity increases, so does the difficulty of the mini-game. This way, you can start training right where your current skill level matches.
The new obstacle course in the Playground – Here’s how it works
This is how the obstacle course works: Once you throw the item on the ground, you can start the mini-game using the transparent timer. After a countdown, time will run and you must complete the course as quickly as possible.
During the course, you must collect as many tokens as possible. Especially at higher difficulty levels, the challenge gets tough. You must maneuver with ice blocks at your feet and jump in the right direction using bounce pads.
As if that wasn’t enough, you must place building components in certain sections to proceed. After successfully completing, your total time will be measured and rated according to the medal system (gold, silver, bronze).
This is what you train with the obstacle course: Quick direction changes, handicaps like the ice blocks, and placing the right building component at the right time, the obstacle course demands everything from you that doesn’t revolve around firing a weapon.
So, if you particularly struggle with movement and coordination of quick direction changes, you can improve your skills with the obstacle course.
The new building challenge in the Playground – Here’s how it works
This is how the building challenge works: Depending on rarity (= difficulty), you must place specified building components. The crucial factor is time, as you must place the components as quickly as possible.
Classic constructions are required, which any aggressive player can easily whip out by now (ramps to push opponents).
As with the obstacle course, you will receive a rating according to the medal principle after successful completion. This way, you can always compete against your previously achieved best time.
This is what you train with the building challenge: If you have so far struggled to get accustomed to the building mode in Fortnite: Battle Royale, you now have a stress-free environment to work on your building skills. Editing building components will also be practiced.
The new shooting range in the Playground – Here’s how it works
This is how the shooting range works: After placing the designated item for the shooting range, a small arena will appear, where dummies will appear that you must eliminate as quickly as possible.
On the lowest difficulty level, the dummies will stand around like oil statues; in harder challenges, you must also eliminate moving targets. At the legendary level, you will also need to eliminate the targets from a great distance.
Practical: With every shooting range you place, you have the option to pick a weapon of your choice from specially placed vending machines. Have you been hesitant to play with the hunting rifles? Now you can practice stress-free for as long as you like.

Read more about our privacy policy.
Pro tip: Build up into the air before activating the shooting range. On the ground, the shooting range can become an obstacle for the dummies due to rough terrain, which should be avoided.
This is what you train with the shooting range: Aiming with all weapons from various ranges against moving and stationary “enemies.” If you have previously struggled with weapon behavior, you can now practice everything that can shoot without concern. But always remember: The dummies never shoot back.
You can also experiment: How does weapon precision behave when you move? What happens when you jump while shooting? How far do you need to aim in front of a moving enemy? Those who perfect their weapon handling are ready for any encounter on the battlefield.
It has never been easier for solo players to improve their Fortnite skills. Use the opportunities in the Playground to enhance your game.
Have you extensively tested the new features? What do you like the most so far?
The story of the three siblings of the Hive is one of the most exciting in the Destiny universe. We’ve already dealt with Oryx, the King of the Taken. What do Savathûn, Xivu Arath, and the Dreaming City have to do with it? A journey through the lore.
What does Oryx have to do with the Dreaming City? A little-noticed aspect of the story is that Oryx already conquered the Dreaming City during the Taken War. He transformed Riven of a Thousand Voices, one of the last Ahamkara, into a Taken.
With Oryx’s death, the Taken were directionless and without leadership, at least until Savathûn showed up. Learn all about the origins of Savathûn, her sister Xivu Arath, and their influences on the Dreaming City and the future of the Destiny franchise here.
Savathûn and her sisters – the origins
The beginnings of the Hive – Game of Thrones in space? Savathûn was not always called that. She was born as Sathona and had two sisters – Xi Ro and Aurash. The three sisters are daughters of a king, the Osmium King, who ruled over a continent on a distant planet – Fundament.
The drama began when the king, already very old, found a dead worm on the beach. Soon, he began to murmur about a disaster that would soon befall them. Taox, a close confidante of the king and somewhat of a caretaker to the three sisters, suspected that the king was becoming senile and was no longer able to lead the kingdom.
Crota, Son of Oryx
According to Taox, the daughters were not yet ready to rule the realm. To secure her own position of power, Taox allied with a hostile kingdom and betrayed her own confidants. The king and his daughters were to be murdered – and in return, Taox would rule the realm.
But the assassination attempt failed; only the king was killed. The three sisters escaped with their father’s dead worm and swore revenge. Over the course of the following year, the sisters sailed on Aurash’s ship across the oceans of Fundament. Meanwhile, the supposedly dead worm spoke to Sathona repeatedly and warned her of dangers.
Eventually, the three sisters came across a ship, which they named “The Needle.” Under the influence of the worm, the sisters repaired the ship and set out for the core of the planet.
The Worm Gods, the Hive, and Immortality
What did the sisters find in the core of the planet? In the midst of the planet, Sathona, Xi Ro, and Aurash encountered the Worm Gods: Akka, Eir, Ur, Xol, and Yul. With these, the princesses made a pact. The Worm Gods offered the sisters a chance to escape Fundament and attain immortality. In return, they were to take the worms as symbionts into themselves and spread their seed across the galaxy.
Xol – one of the Worm Gods
The sisters agreed to the pact and became the first of the Hive:
Xi Ro took in the Knight Worm and transformed into Xivu Arath, who should always test her strength,
Sathona took the Mother Worm and transformed into Savathûn, who should always be cunning,
Aurash took the King Worm and became Auryx, the King of the Hive, who should always strive to gain a profound understanding of things. In the course of the transformation, gender was changed.
With the worms inside them, the siblings began to plan their revenge against Taox. But things went awry.
Savathûn and her siblings – the genocide
The siblings and their hunt for the traitor: Taox had taken refuge on a moon of Fundament. Auryx wanted to negotiate with the race living there, but Savathûn wanted bloody revenge. As punishment, she killed Auryx, who, being immortal, transitioned into his Throne World in the Ascendant Realm, where his soul resided as long as he had not regained his body.
Since the siblings were immortal, a bloody war followed against various species across the galaxy. Meanwhile, the siblings kept killing each other to follow the Sword Logic.
The Sword Logic
The Sword Logic is similar to a religious doctrine that seeks strength. Every death of an enemy makes the perpetrator stronger, according to the logic. Only the strong have a right to survive. Those who are weak deserve nothing but death.
The vengeful campaign against Taox turned into a bloody genocide with billions of victims. Gradually, the once allied siblings realized what the Worm Gods had done to them: puppets, tools created solely to satisfy the hunger of the worms for death.
Thus, Auryx, the King of the Hive, became Oryx, the King of the Taken
This is how the siblings tried to free themselves from the influence of the Worm Gods: Savathûn, Xivu Arath, and Auryx met in his Throne World and devised a plan to protect themselves from the Worm Gods. Savathûn and Xivu Arath allowed themselves to be killed by Auryx to empower him to challenge his own symbiont.
A successful endeavor. Auryx confronted his own Worm God, Akka, and defeated him. Through the death of the worm, Auryx gained the ability to interact with the Darkness itself. He created the Tablets of Ruin and became capable of turning living beings into Taken.
And so Auryx, the King of the Hive, became Oryx, the King of the Taken. After his transformation, Oryx resurrected Savathûn and Xivu Arath, followed by a reign of terror over the Hive and their enemies.
Savathûn and the betrayal of Oryx
Oryx and his audience with the Darkness: Out of fear of the influence of her brother, Xivu Arath and Savathûn concocted a plan to trap Oryx in his Throne World and sever the connection to the life essence of the Worm Gods.
However, this plan failed. Also, an attempt to breach Oryx’s Throne World using Oryx’s son Crota to destroy the king with the Vex was unsuccessful. But Oryx realized that his Throne World had become vulnerable to external attacks and created a new weapon of destruction from the remains of the Worm God Akka: the Dreadnaught.
Afterwards, the siblings scattered across the galaxy:
Oryx went to Saturn to challenge the Guardians during the Taken War.
Xivu Arath fled from her brother’s influence, as he had restricted her too much.
Savathûn pursued a very different tactic. She hid in a black hole. As time behaves differently in a black hole, she hoped for a greater increase in her power using fewer resources.
This plan, however, failed as the Worm God residing in her increased its hunger, thus requiring more resources. Two years later, Oryx was defeated and destroyed by the Guardians. What Savathûn was up to in the meantime was unknown – until the launch of Destiny 2.
Mysterious Hive rituals in the Arcology on Titan
A new Hive brood rises: As part of the story of Destiny 2, the Guardians must investigate the Arcology on the Saturn moon Titan. There, they encounter several powerful representatives of the Hive, all of whom are somehow related to Savathûn. Several scannable objects reinforce the impression that Savathûn is now actively interfering in the story.
The Arcology on the Saturn moon Titan
This becomes particularly clear in the Strike “Savathûn’s Song,” where the Guardians must track down a missing strike team. There, the Guardians learn that the team was transformed into crystals emitting Void Light.
This serves the purpose of feeding a specific Hive ritual centered around a gigantic Screamer named Savathûn’s Song. With the help of Warlock Taeko-3, we succeed in defeating the Screamer and interrupting the ritual.
The Screamer Savathûn’s Sons
New Taken emerge: Further clashes in the solar system also suggest that Savathûn has gained the ability to transform beings into Taken. Thus, we encounter a Commander of the Red Legion who has been taken (Grask, the Consumed). Since the Red Legion only appeared in the solar system after Oryx’s death, another source must be the origin.
During the Warmind expansion, the Guardians learn about messages that the Hive sends to Savathûn to awaken her from the Darkness and experience her true power.
Forsaken as the trigger for the next great collapse?
Savathûn and her influence on the Dreaming City: After Oryx’s fall, Savathûn gained a powerful ally in Riven, one of the last Ahamkara. Although Riven was taken by Oryx, she retained her free will.
With the “puppet” Uldren and his barons, Riven was able to open the portals of the Dreaming City to threats from outside. Thanks to the intervention of the Guardians during the last story mission of Forsaken, Riven remained vulnerable and did not gain immortality.
During the raid “Last Wish” Riven was finally defeated and destroyed. Before her death, however, a final wish was granted: The takeover of the Dreaming City by the Taken.
Since then, a curse has lain on the home of the Awoken people. Savathûn’s daughter, Dûl Incaru, was commissioned by her mother to ensure the complete takeover of the Dreaming City by the Taken and to penetrate into the Most Holy of the Awoken, as Savathûn expected this to bring her further increases in power.
The help from the Guardians, which is no help: The queen of the Awoken, Mara Sov, asks the Guardians for help to end the spreading corruption by the Taken and to stop Dûl Incaru. At the peak of the corruption (always Week 3 of the curse cycle), the Guardians manage to defeat Dûl Incaru and break the curse. Unfortunately, this was exactly Savathûn’s plan.
Savathûn’s devilish plan to attain true power
Black holes, the Awoken, and Savathûn’s plan: Savathûn waits patiently in a black hole, where time flows differently than outside. This was a tactic to trick the Worm residing in her and gain more power. This plan failed. Now, Savathûn is trying to achieve the same effect in the Most Holy of the Awoken with the help of her daughter.
Since the curse was broken, the Dreaming City has been trapped in a time loop. With the aid of the Taken Vex Hydra Quria, Savathûn has succeeded in creating a time loop that forces the three weeks of corruption to be relived over and over again. A vicious cycle for the Guardians:
With every victory over Dûl Incaru, Savathûn comes closer to her goal of finding the Most Holy of the Awoken.
However, if the Guardians allow Dûl Incaru to remain, the corruption would progress further and ultimately destroy the Awoken.
What is actually driving Xivu Arath? Whether Savathûn knows her sister’s plans is unknown. However, it is evident that Xivu Arath is attempting to exert influence over the Taken and the Hive in the solar system. This is evidenced by powerful representatives of the Taken seeking to steal dangerous relics from the Dreaming City and seeming to belong to the “Hive God of War”.
How might the story of the Hive gods continue?
One thing is certain: Savathûn, Quria, and Xivu Arath will cross our paths again in the future. But in what form?
What do the omnipresent tetrahedral ships have to do with it? Is it Savathûn’s attack fleet, directed by an unknown race?
What will happen after the curse is broken in the Dreaming City? Will Savathûn ultimately gain the power to destroy us all?
Will we forge new alliances in the process? The Fallen and the Awoken seem predestined for this.
He has done it again. Just under 8 weeks after the release of World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth, Doubleagent has reached Level 120 in the craziest way.
There is probably no Pandaren who has attracted as much attention in recent years as Doubleagent from the server Mannoroth. The Pandaren player has now reached Level 120 – and has never left the starting area or chosen a faction.
Who is Doubleagent? Doubleagent is a Pandaren player in World of Warcraft who has been playing his character since Mists of Pandaria. Normally, Pandaren choose a faction between level 10 and 20 and join either the Horde or the Alliance. However, Doubleagent, as his name suggests, did not want to do that. He stubbornly stayed on the island and watched how far he could level up.
How does Doubleagent level up? The quests on the Pandaren island are limited and were relatively early completed. From around level 20, Doubleagent had to level up differently.
Doubleagent gains experience points for leveling up by gathering herbs and ores. Each time grants a small amount of experience points. However, that’s way too little for effective leveling. But this is how Doubleagent worked his way through the island with herbalism and mining for days, weeks, and months.
This is certainly not suitable for a “quick leveling” guide – but at least he managed to binge-watch numerous series in the meantime.
He is waiting for the next addon: On Twitter, Doubleagent announced after finally reaching max level that he would be “excited for the next expansion.” He probably deserves about two years of break before gathering herbs and ores begins again.

Ninja, the most famous streamer of Fortnite: Battle Royale, wants to make a big splash on New Year’s Eve 2018. He is planning a mega-stream marathon from Times Square in New York!
Mega stream from Times Square in New York: On New Year’s Eve, Ninja wants to make a big impact and stream for 12 hours straight from 4 PM on December 31, 2018, until 4 AM on January 1, 2019. That would be from 10 PM to 10 AM in our time.
This time Ninja will not be streaming from home but live at Times Square in New York.
What is so special about Times Square? For many, New York is the cultural capital of the USA and thus a center of the world. And Times Square is the living heart of the city.
On New Year’s Eve, Times Square becomes one of the most important places in the world. Celebrations are particularly intense there, and at midnight a glowing ball is lowered onto the New York Times building.
Furthermore, numerous performances by musicians and parties take place at Times Square on New Year’s Eve. Therefore, the location is the center of New Year’s parties in the USA, watched by millions of viewers.
Gaming is becoming increasingly popular
Another step towards the mainstream: That Ninja has managed to perform at Times Square during one of the most important times of the year shows yet again how popular Fortnite has become and how much gaming has moved to the forefront of the mainstream.
Therefore, in 2018, alongside performances by artists and other shows, there will also be Ninja’s big stream marathon, which he plans to do from 4 PM in the afternoon until 4 AM the following morning, featuring surprise guests and other special highlights.
What do you think of Ninja’s action? Great thing or do you have something better to do on New Year’s Eve 2018 than watching Ninja play?
How Ninja has managed to become so popular through Fortnite and how much work is involved in his role as a streamer, you can find out here:
To get better items in Fallout 76, you have many options. Trading with other players is one of the easiest and fastest ways. Here’s how it works.
Trading with other players: Fallout 76 is the first Fallout where multiple players can play together by default. This allows you to easily buy or sell things you have found or crafted.
How can you trade in Fallout 76?
Find a buyer or seller: To trade in Fallout 76, you need two things:
An item for sale or enough Caps for a purchase
and a buyer or a seller.
This may sound trivial, but it’s not that easy. West Virginia, where Fallout 76 takes place, is a very large area and only a limited number of people can play on a server. Additionally, other players can also shoot you dead if you’re not careful.
So it may take a while to find someone with whom you can and want to trade.
This is how a trade works: Once you have found someone willing to buy your items or sell you things, you just need to meet. Once you are face-to-face, you can start the transaction using the “Offer/Accept Trade” button:
Step 1: Approach the player and hold down the “Offer/Accept Trade” button.
Step 2: Choose the item you want to sell (or wait for an offer).
Step 3: Enter the price the other person should pay and confirm.
This way, you are now offering items for sale. The other player can simultaneously offer you their own items for sale, which you can then see in your inventory. Three more steps are needed to complete the trade:
Step 5: Interact with the offered items. On Xbox, you need to pull the right trigger for this.
Step 6: Select the item and press the “Buy Item” button.
What benefits do I get from a trade? By trading in Fallout 76, you can quickly acquire Caps or better weapons and gear. Especially Stimpaks are always useful.
Fallout 76 also offers you the opportunity to craft special and unique weapons. If you find someone who offers them, you can easily buy good gear. If you craft such items yourself, you can secure a good amount of Caps.
At BlizzCon 2018, owners of the Virtual Tickets can play the demo of WoW Classic. Clever players have already found access a week earlier.
Fans are already playing Classic: A leak allowed some players to obtain a working version of the upcoming Classic version of World of Warcraft. They have been playing it for a week before the demo is actually available.
Playable “WoW Classic” demo leaked before BlizzCon
Demo was supposed to be playable only at BlizzCon: For BlizzCon, Blizzard promised a demo for the upcoming Classic servers of World of Warcraft. Players attending live can play the demo at BlizzCon, while Virtual Ticket holders can play at home.
The downloaded client is not yet functional. The activation for logging in will occur at a later time.
Classic client found on Discord: However, a link to a Google Drive has appeared on some Discord servers, through which players could download a functioning client of the Classic demo.
Through a “sandbox emulator,” this client is tricked into connecting directly with a PC program, instead of as intended with Blizzard servers. This allows players to already log in and play the demo.
The release of the complete version is not expected to happen before 2021.
Different graphics, no NPCs: In the playable version of the Classic demo, there are no NPCs. You cannot accept quests or level up. You can only admire the beautiful landscape.
This landscape has received a bit of improvement. The YouTuber Dodgy Kebaab has published a video comparing the graphics from the 2018 demo with the original game from 2005:
https://youtu.be/iIdf-ML8VIc
The graphic options in the demo are reportedly much more extensive than they were back in the Classic days. There is also a “Classic” button in the menu that switches the graphics between the 2018 demo and original Classic.
What do you think of the preview? Are you excited about Classic and will you play the demo? Or will you stick to “normal” World of Warcraft? Leave us a comment!
One of the many side activities in Red Dead Redemption 2 is hunting. We will show you how to find a legendary bear and what you can do with its fur here.
Hunting in Red Dead Redemption 2 is not just a nice pastime, but also a good way to acquire new clothing or money. The legendary bear is just one of the nearly 200 animals that populate the game world. Where you can find it and what you can craft from its fur can be read here.
Hunt the legendary bear in Red Dead Redemption 2
Here’s how to find the legendary bear: You can easily find the legendary bear, as in the mission “Get Out, Head Down” in Chapter 2, you have the task of tracking down the massive animal. However, the quest is not immediately available at the start of Chapter 2, but will unlock a little later.
In the quest, you will be introduced to hunting, cooking food, and crafting. After that, you can try tracking and will soon come across the tracks of the animal.
After the quest, you will need to decide whether to return to camp or confront the bear directly.
Here’s how to take down the bear: If you want to hunt the bear, make sure to have your best gear, upgraded ammunition, and a few potions with you. A rifle with a scope and a full Dead Eye is also helpful. It’s best to save before your hunt.
This control panel has so many combinations (20 circles with 16 different symbols) that it is nearly impossible to find all wishes through trial and error. Therefore, some wishes are hidden in the world of Destiny.
This is what the 10th wish looks like: The tenth wish has this exact combination.
This is what the wish does: Once the wish is activated, the Drifter suddenly has a word to say in the raid. He then has text – just like the 9th wish Failsafe gave a voice in the raid. He is in the guardians’ heads, so to speak.
This is how the wish was found: The truly exciting part is how extremely well the wish was hidden in Destiny 2. The exact combination of symbols was found on a plate in the game world.
When the raid boss Riven died for the first time more than a month ago, a new map for Gambit was introduced: the Cathedral of Scars. It plays in the Reef. This is the map with the central island that you can jump to.
The then-new Gambit map was intensively searched because everyone thought there had to be a new wish hidden there. However, no one could find it on the map.
But it was indeed there. The wish stands on a plate behind a crystal. However, it could only be found in the 3rd Gambit round, as the crystal blocked the view of the plate from any possible angle before.
A third Gambit round is only played if it is 1:1 after the first two rounds.
The player MadCatz, who ultimately found the 10th wish, had to jump on a ledge and then look through the scope of his sniper rifle at the spot where the crystal used to be to find the plate with wish 10.
An incredible achievement by the guardians in Destiny from Raidsecrets, who are still as hot for secrets in Destiny 2 as they were back then with the mysterious 6th chest in the Glass Chamber.
The update 0.125.1 in Pokémon GO is being slowly rolled out. Dataminers have already found information about the fitness feature “Adventure Sync” in the code. However, the changes are not live yet.
The new update is being rolled out gradually and should be available to all players in the coming days.
Much about Adventure Sync: In the new update, much revolves around the new fitness feature Adventure Sync, which Niantic announced a few days ago. We will show you what was in the code.
This is what the new Adventure Sync can do
The Adventure Sync can do five essential things. These are currently being tested and should soon be available to players.
Measuring distance traveled
Measuring distance traveled in a wheelchair
Counting wheelchair push movements
Counting calories burned while walking
Counting the time spent on the go
Only in cooperation with other apps: Anyone who wants to use the fitness feature for Pokémon GO also needs another app. Pokémon GO cooperates with the apps HealthKit and Google Fit. Adventure Sync does not work with any other app.
New icons: Along with the fitness feature, several new symbols will be added to Pokémon GO. These are directly related to the new feature.
Hourly Measurements
The new fitness function works with hourly data. It retrieves new values every hour and evaluates them. The function also accesses the most recently retrieved data. It seems to be difficult to trick the system and cheat for bonuses.
Background mode for Pokémon GO: Together with the fitness feature, Pokémon GO will receive a background mode. You do not need to have the app open, and it still evaluates new values in the background.
Connection with smart watch possible: The code also contains several parts that deal with smart watch services. It will likely also be possible to connect your smart watch with Pokémon GO and use the fitness feature through it.
The code also contained parts that deal with daily and weekly tasks. Players will probably have to achieve certain fitness goals each day or week to receive certain bonuses.
First only in the code: It must be emphasized that the listed features were first found only in the code. They may be activated in the next update, but it could also take weeks. Trainers must therefore be patient and wait for Niantic to provide new information about Adventure Sync.
Mainly fitness feature in the code: Much more than new information about Adventure Sync was not found by the dataminers. Besides smaller bug fixes, not much new was found in the code.
What do you think of the new fitness feature? Are you excited about the update?
In Fortnite: Battle Royale, you should destroy ghost decorations for the second Halloween challenge. But where is the ghost decor? We will show you!
Part 2 of the Halloween Challenge:For Halloween, Epic has provided you with a special set of challenges. In the second round, the goal is to destroy ghost decorations at various locations. So this is the ideal task for everyone who hates Halloween and ghost decor!
What can you win? If you complete the ghost decor task and the other challenges from Phase 2, you will receive a special spray paint for the Halloween outfit Deadfire. However, you must first purchase the spooky cowboy in the shop. You do not need him for the challenge itself, and the spray paint can also be used without owning Deadfire.
How to find the ghost decor
The locations of the ghost decorations: Fortunately, the ghost decorations are fairly distributed across the map at most known locations.
The ghost decor must be destroyed at named locations. Only one decoration counts per location. The following locations have ghost decor:
Lazy Links
Risky Reels
Pleasant Parks
Snobby Shores
Tilted Towers
Retail Row
Lonely Lodge
Greasy Grove
Salty Springs
Paradise Palms
Flush Factory
Lucky Landing
Where you can find the decorations is shown in the following map from Dexerto:
The ghost decor in video form: If you want to see exactly where the decor is located, you can also see it in this video from YouTuber CreativeGaming:

Attention, tryhards: As always, such challenges are often exploited by unwanted tryhards to easily rack up a few kills. Because when you take down ghost decor, you make yourself noticeable, and some nasty campers could be lurking at such decor for unsuspecting victims. So be careful!
If you still want to complete the task from the first phase, you can find a guide to the locations of the water spouts in Fortnite here:
Killers have long wait times in Dead by Daylight. The reason is the Halloween event – it has turned survivors into killers.
In Dead by Daylight, there can currently be very long wait times for killers on all platforms (PC, PS4, Xbox One). The reason for this is not a programming error in matchmaking but a simple fact: There are far too many killer players in relation to survivors. The culprit is the “Hallowed Blight” event for Halloween.
What happened? Currently, the “Hallowed Blight” event is happening in Dead by Daylight. While survivors harvest special plants, killers must take survivors to special event hooks. This supplied both sides with serum. The problem was that you could only receive the maximum amount of serum if you played both killers and survivors.
Why is this annoying? In a game designed for “4vs1”, matchmaking does not work well when a large portion of survivors also wants to play as killers. This led to long wait times for killers until the lobbies filled up. Frustration was inevitable.
This is how the developers are fixing the problem: With a quick hotfix, the developers have already resolved the issue. Now both sides (killers and survivors) can work indefinitely towards the maximum of 60 units of serum. So if you’re still missing serum and have to endure long wait times as a killer, just play as a survivor for a while, and the problem is solved.
Community praises quick response: The otherwise quite cynical Dead by Daylight community is praising the swift action of the developers on Reddit. Gone are the days of “incompetent decisions,” and sensible changes are being implemented more quickly and reliably than a few months ago.
The “Hallowed Blight” event runs until November 2nd. There is still plenty of time to earn the serum and thus the cool shop outfits for killers and survivors.
Have you gotten everything you wanted from the event? Or are you still busy farming?
In Destiny 2 Forsaken will soon launch a “Refer-a-Friend” program. Veterans can embark on an exclusive quest with rookie Guardians, featuring multiple rewards.
Here’s what the Refer-a-Friend program is about: Starting next week, Bungie will launch an online “Referral Program” aimed at providing an extra incentive for veteran Guardians to promote Destiny 2 Forsaken to their friends who don’t own Forsaken yet.
Bungie also wants to attract new Guardians to Forsaken.
Both the recommending Guardian and the new Guardian who acquires Forsaken must enter into a pact on Bungie.net and can then play a Refer-a-Friend quest line that rewards both parties.
All Info on Refer-a-Friend in Destiny 2 Forsaken
Start date for Refer-a-Friend: As of October 30, 2018, the Refer-a-Friend program will be available alongside the Update 2.0.5.
Requirements for veteran Guardians: A veteran Guardian is defined as a player who owns Destiny 2: Forsaken. Veterans can invite new players to the Refer-a-Friend initiative.
Requirements for new players:
A new player is anyone who does not own Destiny 2: Forsaken or has owned it for less than 7 days.
If a player has owned Destiny 2: Forsaken for more than 7 days, they can no longer participate as a new player in the referral program.
Exception: Players who purchased Forsaken between October 16 and 30 will be considered new players and can be referred until November 7, 2018.
How much time do you have for the exclusive quest? According to Bungie, the quest can be completed at any time once you have qualified for it in a timely manner.
The rewards from the referral quest
Here’s how to claim the rewards: After each quest step of the referral quest, both Guardians – the veteran and the new player – will receive rewards. The quest is primarily about veterans introducing the newcomers to Destiny 2 Forsaken and helping them experience what it feels like to be a Guardian.
These rewards are listed by Bungie:
A ship:
A sniper rifle (or an ornament for the Borealis?):
A badge:
Veteran Guardians who lead multiple new players to Destiny 2 Forsaken should receive additional rewards. Bungie showcases this Sparrow:
These rewards are quite colorful, with the colors on the Sparrow and the weapon continuously changing and swirling joyfully.
In the evening of October 30, Bungie will release a detailed blog article about this program, which should answer all further questions. You can find the article on Bungie.net.
Refer-a-Friend is starting too late according to fans
Here’s what the first Guardians say: On Reddit, several Guardians have already shared their opinions on this program. The top comment states that the time frame in which a player is considered “new” is much too short.
Many people managed to get their friends to purchase Forsaken within the first two weeks after its launch. The fact that this program is only starting nearly two months after launch is now too late.
Now, most players have already made their final decisions on whether to buy Forsaken or not. The rewards from this program cannot change opinions anymore.
This means that many Guardians are disappointed that they will probably not have a chance to obtain the rewards, even though they already recommended Forsaken to many friends – but just too early.
Do you have friends who bought Forsaken after October 16 or will do so?
