Mobilität, Belastbarkeit, Erholung – Worauf solltet Ihr in Destiny 2 setzen?

Robert Albrecht 8. October 2017 Reading time 4 minutes

Mobility, Resilience, and Recovery are the new stat values in Destiny 2. But which value should you focus on? What is the best? All answers here!

Destiny 2 gives you some freedom in choosing your preferred stat value. However, there are a few conditions you need to be aware of. You cannot increase these values arbitrarily. Additionally, there are class-specific restrictions.

We will provide you with an overview of how to best utilize each stat value and whether it is worth investing in all of them.

What do the stat values actually mean?

There are three stat values in Destiny 2: Mobility, Resilience, and Recovery.

Mobility in Destiny 2

Mobility determines how fast you can walk (not sprint) , whether it is forward movement or dodging left and right while in combat. Mobility also affects your jump. Read in our detailed guide what impact the mobility value has on various movements!

Resilience in Destiny 2

Resilience indicates how many damage points you can withstand before experiencing a virtual death. Your total health points consist of your health bar and your shield. The maximum value of resilience is 10. You have the following health points total between a resilience value of 0 and 10:

Health without shield: 70
Shield with a resilience value of 0: 116
Shield with a resilience value of 5: 126
Shield with a resilience value of 7: 128
Shield with a resilience value of 9: 130
Shield with a resilience value of 10: 131

In total, your overall health with a resilience value of 10 is 70+131=201 total health points. Even though there are only 15 health points between the resilience value of 0 and 10, these can decide victory or defeat in a close fight.

Recovery in Destiny 2

Recovery controls how quickly your health points regenerate once you take damage. The following graphic illustrates the principle:

Guardians with a recovery value of 10 reach maximum health about 4 seconds faster than a Guardian with a recovery value of 1.

Have you seen? All exotic armors of the Titan with build suggestions!

Your class choice dictates the direction!

Right at the start of the game, you can see where the focus lies in the points distribution for each class:

Titans focus on Resilience
Warlocks are masters of Recovery
Hunters excel in Mobility

While it is possible for a Warlock to reach the maximum value of 10 in resilience or mobility, the other attributes must be significantly neglected for that to happen.

You can also influence things through mods, which grant additional bonuses, that you can equip on your gear. Of course, there are restrictions:

Gloves only have mobility mods
Helmet mods increase resilience
Legs can have mods that increase recovery
The Titan can only increase resilience with his class item
Hunter cloaks only increase mobility
Warlock bonds provide space for recovery mods

No matter how you combine your armor and mods, the Titan always has the bonus in resilience, the Warlock in recovery, and Hunters have their advantages in mobility. This spreadsheet provides further details, where you can look up all combinations of armor and mods!

Want to know more about the mods? Here are all the details!

How significant is the difference actually?

Yes, you will notice a difference between a mobility value of 4 and 9. Since mobility does not affect sprint speed, you will primarily notice this effect in the Crucible. A high mobility increases your dodge speed (both when aiming and not aiming).

With a high recovery value, you are back on your feet significantly faster and can immediately jump back into the fray. This is especially a game-changer in the Crucible. Faster regeneration can create a surprise effect and eliminate enemies who have not regained their full health yet.

Resilience can influence the time it takes for an enemy to take you down. 15 health points between a resilience value of 0 and 10 make a significant difference in the Crucible.

Summary and Recommendation: Hunters and Titans will unfortunately never enjoy a maximum recovery value of 10 without brutally neglecting the other attributes. Because recovery is the best and most important stat value. You should always try to invest as many points as possible in recovery.

How much resilience do you need? Exactly four points! Why? Opponents in the Crucible who shoot at you with the MIDA Multi-Tool need one more critical hit once your resilience is at least 4 points. That may sound trivial, but in the current Crucible meta, it is a point that must be considered. In battles against the pesky alien races, resilience is also important, because the more damage you can withstand, the better!

If possible, ignore mobility. Instead, invest in gear that actually increases sprint speed – like the MIDA Combo, the Titan’s Dune Strider, the Hunter’s STAMP-F3R, or the Transversive Steps of Warlocks.

When will the next addon for World of Warcraft be released?

Cortyn 8. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

There is a heated discussion about the next WoW expansion. But when is a likely release date?

Although the last raid Antorus, the Burning Throne has not yet been released, fans are already speculating about the release of the next expansion of World of Warcraft. In just under a month, there will be concrete information, as BlizzCon 2017 will take place, where the latest expansion will likely be extensively presented.

The “usual” course would then be a waiting period of almost a year. Legion was announced in August 2015, and the release was scheduled for the end of August 2016.

This would, in turn, mean that players would have to endure a year without content patches and would practically experience nothing new in 2018. One only needs to whisper the word “Hellfire Citadel” softly in the room, and players immediately get flashbacks.

WoW Patch 8.0 already in summer 2018?

However, there are also a few considerably more optimistic assumptions. Some players are already counting on the next expansion to be released at the beginning of summer 2018. After all, Blizzard has been working significantly faster and more effectively in recent months than in previous years. Every 3 months, there was a major content patch – so why shouldn’t the development of an addon proceed faster as well?

To support this theory, every word from the developers is also often put on the interpretative scales.

In the Q&A with Game Director Ion Hazzikostas regarding “Tier 21 sets” from Antorus, when discussing class sets, it was mentioned that “sets would be used for 5-7 months” and therefore need to be well balanced. This statement about “5-7 months” is already a clear indicator for some players that Patch 8.0 will be released in early summer 2018.

WoW Alleria Void Hi2 — Waiting for the next addon. But how long?

The result will likely lie somewhere in between. If Blizzard presents the expansion at BlizzCon 2017, it is likely to be only a few months before the “Friends & Family” alpha begins, which will soon be followed by a closed beta. A release somewhere between the 3rd and 4th quarter of 2018 seems quite possible.

Whether Blizzard can maintain the “faster releases” not only for patches but also for full expansions, we will probably find out in 2018.

When do you think Patch 8.0 and thus the next expansion of WoW will occur? Still in 2018? Or will it drag on until 2019 without fresh content?

Whether we can survive the content drought at least with flying on Argus, you can find out in this article.

Item-Rausch bei Black Desert! Koreaner geben Millionen Silber aus

Schuhmann 8. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

An event in Korea has led to a loot frenzy and a revival of the economy in Black Desert . Loot boxes for millions of silver!

Black Desert is known for not letting any celebration go uncelebrated. No matter the occasion: Everything that is celebrated in the real world finds its reflection in Black Desert.

Last week, developer Kakao celebrated one of the biggest festivities in Korea and came up with something special: Traders appeared in the cities and sold special boxes for 10 million and 50 million silver.

Loot boxes for 10 million and 50 million silver

The contents of the loot boxes were randomly determined, with the main prizes being rare boss items and TET accessories.

As reported by the Korean site Inven, this led to a buying frenzy and Korean players poured millions of silver into these boxes.

However, alongside the “main prizes,” the coveted items, there were also numerous “booby prizes,” such as fragments and shards.

Even among the items themselves, some were more coveted than others. And when an “Ogre Ring” as a drop brings joy, it’s less pleasant to see it after having put 700 million into the loot boxes.

In the chats, players commented extensively on their good or bad luck – envied or pitied by others. It was evidently quite lively.

Marketplace booming

The event brought about an interesting side effect. Due to so many players putting their millions into the loot boxes and receiving items they couldn’t use, the marketplace suddenly became active.

As Inven reports, numerous items like Kzarka and Nouver weapons appeared in the Korean marketplace of Black Desert last week, which usually get bought out immediately and are not available.

It could also be a good idea for players here to hoard silver in the future. Perhaps a similar event will also come to Europe – or the luxury marketplace will open its doors. There’s also a billion or two to sink:

Luxury at its finest – The marketplace of the super-rich in Black Desert

Pokémon GO: Update 0.77.1 / 1.47.1 is on the way – Curveball bug fixed

Patrick Freese 7. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

The new Pokémon GO update 0.77.1 for Android and 1.47.1 for iOS is on its way to you. Some bugs will be fixed.

With a new Pokémon GO update, the developers want to eliminate some bugs from the game and provide you with a better gaming experience. The update 0.77.1 for Android and 1.47.1 for iOS devices is now rolling out and will gradually be made available for different regions.

The annoying curveball bug, where not every curveball was recognized, is supposed to be fixed. When the update will be available for all trainers in Germany is still unclear.

Patchnotes 0.77.1 / 1.47.1 – Patch Notes

In the patch notes, the developers explain what will change for Pokémon GO players with the update:

A confirmation dialog now appears when trying to send costumed Pokémon.
Costumed Pokémon can no longer be transferred in bulk.
A bug has been fixed that caused occasional network errors during raid battles.
A bug has been fixed that displayed the number of trainers in the raid battle lobby incorrectly.
A bug has been fixed that reset the Pokémon selection when choosing an item in the raid battle lobby.
A bug has been fixed that did not count curveballs correctly.
Various other bugs have been fixed and performance improved.

Attention Speculation: Speculation is already running high regarding the “costumed Pokémon.” This could refer to the various Pikachu, Pichu, and Raichu forms with their hats or announce a special feature for Halloween. Trainers are hoping for spooky costumed Pokémon for the Halloween event in Pokémon GO. However, this has not been confirmed yet. It would be a cool idea though.

0.77.1 APK Mining

We will soon learn what other changes are hidden in the new update from the APK miners. They will thoroughly examine the new update and find out what interesting changes the developers may have withheld from us.

As always, we will keep you updated here on Mein-MMO.de.

GTA 5 Online: Update with crazy transformer races in October

Patrick Freese 7. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

In transformation races in GTA 5 Online, you jump from street races into ultra-fast jets in seconds.

In October, action-packed races continue in GTA 5 Online. In the past, we have already proven that loops and long jumps are no problem for us racers during cool stunt races. However, in the October update, it’s going to get serious.

The planned transformation races are the next evolutionary step of stunt races and allow a combination of air, land, and water races.

GTA Update with Transformation Races

In the new transformation races in GTA, you can seamlessly switch between different vehicles and race types. After a sharp turn on the road, you quickly take to the air in a fighter jet, and after a loop, you plunge straight into the water, where it continues with a boat or jet ski.

The transformation races will take place on new special stunt courses. They will connect air, land, and water. You will have access to the entire selection of vehicle types, such as supercars and off-road vehicles. Boats, helicopters, and airplanes, as well as some skydiving, are also part of the repertoire.

We don’t have to wait much longer for this special type of race. As Rockstar Games announces, the transformation races are set to be released later in October. There will also be updates for the race creator later this year.

2 New Adversary Modes in Autumn

In addition to these special races, we can expect more new content in GTA 5 Online. Two new adversary modes are planned:

Condemned: Here it’s “Every man for himself” – At the start of a match, one player is sentenced to death and can only survive by sentencing another player to death.
Dogfight: (Now play Top Gun theme) – In this game mode, you show what you are capable of as a fighter pilot.

New Vehicles: Hunter, Coil Cyclone, Vigilante

The new Hunter attack helicopter could elevate your collection in the hangars. Fans of supercars will also be pleased. In the “not too distant future”, we can look forward to unique vehicles like the Coil Cyclone and the fearsome Vigilante.

For the rest of the year, the developers plan additional content, such as new weapon vehicles, new properties at Maze Bank, and more. We are already excited.

A bug allowed players to see the transformation races early in GTA 5 Online

Pokémon GO: Legendärer Überraschungsbesuch beim Europa-Event!

Patrick Freese 7. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

The legendary birds were supposed to disappear again from Pokémon GO. But at an event in Europe, they are appearing again.

A few months ago, the first legendary Pokémon visited us in Pokémon GO. For the one-year anniversary in summer, Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, and Lugia appeared in special raids. However, the birds were only in the game for a short time and then disappeared again.

Now they are surprisingly appearing again in Europe. But to find them, you need to be on the move in Copenhagen.

Update 07.10. – 19:30: Reports on Reddit indicate that all legendary birds were spotted. They are said to have disappeared again.

Articuno and Moltres in Copenhagen

One of the safari events is currently taking place at the Fisketorvet shopping center in Copenhagen (Denmark). During these events, trainers present can catch rare Pokémon.

Having had several safari events in the past, the same principle was expected for future events. Same monsters, same rewards – just like usual.

But the big surprise is happening now in Copenhagen. Suddenly, the legendary birds Articuno and Moltres, which last visited us in summer, are reappearing. There is still no sign of Zapdos. Originally, the birds were replaced in September by the legendary beasts Entei, Raikou, and Suicune.

It was clear that the legendary birds would not stay away from Pokémon GO forever. But probably no one in the trainer community expected such an early return. Especially not without a special announcement or a teaser from Niantic on Twitter or Facebook.

According to initial reports, Lugia raids are also appearing in the event cities. Every trainer can participate in the raids; no ticket is required. You just need to be in the city.

We are unsure whether this action was “so” intended by Niantic and if the legendary birds will visit other cities soon.

Soon there is the Halloween event in Pokémon GO – Are you looking forward to it?

Destiny 2: “What do you want in the first expansion?” – Bungie collects wishes

Tom Rothstein 7. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

In Destiny 2 , Bungie is asking the Guardians what they most wish for in the first expansion.

Destiny 2 has been on the market for over a month now. Countless Guardians have already completed the story, explored the endgame, and brought their characters to the maximum power level.

Slowly, the eyes of fans and developers are turning to the first expansion, which is set to be released later this year. This will carry the title “Curse of Osiris” and is apparently supposed to include community wishes.

The wishlist for the first expansion is long

The Guardians can now send their suggestions and wishes for the first expansion directly to Bungie. The Game Director Christopher Barrett posed the question on Twitter about what players would like to see in it:

https://twitter.com/cgbarrett/status/915980927196479489

Since then, there have been thousands of responses to the tweet: Highly requested features include private matches and custom games, an observer mode, ranked matches, strike-specific loot, and above all, a more extensive endgame and meaningful loot. Some exotics are also expected to be buffed.

The hardcore players especially want more to do in the endgame. More loot that requires time and effort. Random rolls on gear that are delightful to hunt for. It has been lamented for a long time that the grind is missing. That there are no long-term goals to motivate players to log in daily in the upcoming weeks.

It is certain that “Curse of Osiris” will not be able to fulfill all wishes. But the past of Destiny 1 has shown that Bungie can draw the right conclusions from player feedback and set new directions. Bungie must now do this again with certain aspects of Destiny 2.

By the way: Some content of “Curse of Osiris” is already known. The Xbox Store listed the most important novelties. You can read these leaks about “Curse of Osiris” compiled here. But beware: Spoiler alert.

Overwatch: New skins for Halloween – Cthulhu-Zenyatta and “evil” Symmetra

Cortyn 7. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

Three more Halloween skins for Overwatch have been leaked. And they are among the most beautiful the game has ever had!

Just three days to go, and on October 10, 2017 the next in-game event of Overwatch begins. During Overwatch Halloween Terror 2017, all the known gimmicks from last year will return. This probably includes the game mode “Junkenstein’s Revenge”, where players must fend off Omnic zombie hordes, as well as a bunch of cool Halloween skins, voicelines, victory poses, and much more.

In 2017, the event will be a bit spiced up. This means there are new skins to earn, and they are leaking out piece by piece.

A few days ago, we showed you the new skins for Reaper and McCree, which were teased in advance by Blizzard.

Overwatch Halloween Skins in 2017

Now more skins have followed, some of which come from leaks and some from announcements. Here are the three new Halloween skins:

Zenyatta gets a skin inspired by the Cthulhu Mythos by H.P. Lovecraft. Dark tentacles grow from his face, and his meditation orbs are adorned with sinister eyes. This could also be a reference to the Old Gods in World of Warcraft – but they also drew inspiration from Lovecraft.

Mei apparently has enough of life, as she gets a skin where she dresses up as an undead Jiang Shi. However, with a talisman on her head, that probably won’t be enough to keep her in check.

The jackpot is probably drawn by Symmetra. She gets a skin reminiscent of Diablo 3, but it could also have some elements of the Zerg. What exactly this look is about, we will probably find out once the update goes live.

What do you think of these new skins? Is that enough motivation to wade through the Halloween event?

Also spooky are these Play of the Games of the week – Widowmaker is almost telepathic!

FIFA 18: Cheap Players in Ultimate Team – Affordable Top Teams

Tom Rothstein 7. October 2017 Reading time 4 minutes

FIFA 18 Ultimate Team – Cheap, good players with high ratings are hard to find in FUT 18. We show you top teams from the Bundesliga and MLS that you can create at low prices.

If you want to build an Ultimate Team in FIFA 18, there are several things to keep in mind: Especially at the beginning, players should be inexpensive, yet they need to have high team chemistry and preferably high ratings. Getting all this together is not easy.

Proceed with building your team as follows:

Think ahead about which formation you want to play. Our formation guide can help you with this. If you change your formation during team building, you might have to buy new players or spend additional coins on consumables to change the positions.
Focus on one league or nation. This guarantees you high chemistry values. Chemistry is critical for the players’ performance on the field.
When choosing your first players, do not focus too much on the overall rating. Instead, look at the individual attributes of the players. For example, there are many silver players with excellent pace or physical values. These are usually quite cheap but still beneficial.
Avoid TOTW players, that is, special cards completely at the beginning. They are always expensive and there are significantly cheaper alternatives.
To find bargains on the transfer market, you should monitor the transfer market for a longer time and not jump at the first offer. You get a good impression of the “true price” of a player by finding the cheapest instant purchase price. Do not pay more! More on this in our trading tips.

We now show you players for powerful teams that may be inexpensive, but with whom you can still achieve a successful start in FUT 18.

Buy cheap, good players from the Bundesliga in FUT 18

If you definitely want to create a Bundesliga team, you should not directly eye a Lewandowski or Aubameyang. These cost several hundred thousand coins. Instead, buy these cheap alternatives for each (partly significantly) under 2000 coins.

Keep in mind that prices fluctuate and can vary across different platforms.

Cheap forwards from the Bundesliga for Ultimate Team

Max Kruse (82) – under 1000 coins
Mario Gomez (82) – under 1300 coins
Lars Stindl (82) – under 1200 coins
Fin Bartels (78) – under 900 coins

In the Bundesliga, there are many cheap forwards with a pace between 70 and 80 and a shot value between 80 and 85. Fin Bartels is the fastest of the good, cheap forwards with a pace of 86.

Cheap midfielders from the Bundesliga – suitable for CAM, CM, CDM

Emil Forsberg (83) – under 1500 coins
Shinji Kagawa (83) – under 1200 coins
Lars Bender (82) – under 1000 coins

The best players among you can try out FUT Champions and the Weekend League. Here are the best rewards in FUT 18!

Cheap wide players from the Bundesliga – RM, LM

André Schürrle (LM 80) – under 2000 coins
Serge Gnabry (LM 79) – under 2000 coins
Yevhen Konoplyanka (LF 79) – under 1300 coins
Ibrahima Traore (RM 80) – under 1200 coins
Patrick Herrmann (RM 79) – under 1300 coins
Christian Pulisic (RM 78) – under 1500 coins

Cheap full-backs from the Bundesliga – RB, LB

Marcel Schmelzer (LB 80) – under 2000 coins
Bernat (LB 79) – under 1100 coins
Wendell (LB 77) – under 1500 coins
Kimmich (RB 81) – under 1500 coins
Coke (RB 80) – under 1000 coins
Mitchell Weiser (RB 78) – under 1000 coins

You can read all information about Squad Battles in FUT 18 here!

Cheap center-backs from the Bundesliga

Niklas Süle (83) – under 1800 coins
Marc Bartra (81) – under 1500 coins
Kevin Vogt (80) – under 1800 coins

Cheap goalkeepers from the Bundesliga

Timo Horn, Ralf Fährmann, and Roman Bürki each have a total of 84 and cost just over 2000 coins. Cheaper options include:

Yann Sommer (83) – under 1000 coins
Oliver Baumann (82) – under 800 coins

A cheap top team from the MLS

Generally, players from top leagues such as the Premier League or Bundesliga are more expensive than similarly strong players from “smaller leagues”.

Here is a pre-made team from the MLS that you can create for around 15,000 coins (or significantly under 10,000):

Formation: 4-3-3 (4)

ST: Dos Santos (79) – 650 coins
LF: Accam (74) – under 1500 coins
RF: Gerso (74) – under 550 coins
CAM: Almiron (79) – under 700 coins
CM: Schweinsteiger (81) – under 800 coins
CM: Dos Santos (80) – under 700 coins
LB: Lawrence (71) – under 300 coins
CB: Gonzalez Pirez (75) – under 2000 coins
CB: Opara (74) – under 7900 coins; or: Ciman (76) for 350 coins
RB: Cato (65) – 400 coins
GK: Howard (78) – 350 coins

This team has fast, good players on the flanks and strong passing players in the midfield. Opara is also a beast in central defense, but he also comes at a price. If you replace this player with Ciman, the team costs significantly under 10,000 coins.

You can find the best players from the Bundesliga for your Ultimate Team here.

Destiny 2: Friendgame statt Endgame – Bungie erzürnt die Community

Robert Albrecht 7. October 2017 Reading time 4 minutes

An initially inconspicuous paragraph in Bungie’s weekly update on Destiny 2 is the top topic among Guardians. What is going on?

Bungie announced on Friday the upcoming start of the first Iron Banner as well as the Prestige Raid – two important activities that the Guardians have been eagerly anticipating. Nevertheless, another topic is currently causing heated discussions in the reddit forum: An initially inconspicuous statement from Bungie’s community manager DeeJ.

“Friendship” instead of Endgame as motivation for players?

The reason is the following paragraph from the current “This Week at Bungie”:

My challenge to every Guardian is to look to the human element in Destiny 2 to fuel your appetite for ultimate replayability. The ultimate loot is the friendships that can grow out of a game like this. There will be more gear to add to your character (next week, even). The rewards that I’m talking about are the people in the community that thrives in this game. If you let them, they’ll make your hobby as a light-dealing hero on a starside campaign for glory even better.

Loosely translated, this means that the ultimate replay value of Destiny 2 is not defined by the activities but by the friendships one makes. The ultimate rewards are not always more gear (which will still be available), but the friendships that develop.

This statement from Deej is currently stirring up the Guardians on Reddit. Bungie is being accused of downplaying the lack of endgame content while instead highlighting the social component.

Even though making friends is a significant aspect of the gaming experience, it cannot disguise the fact that there is too little to do. “Friendgame instead of Endgame,” some Guardians comment sarcastically.

Severe criticism of the Iron Banner – Generic uniformity?

But this poorly formulated passage is merely the tip of the iceberg. For the Iron Banner and the Prestige Raid are also heavily criticized. Specifically, for the Iron Banner, it is pointed out that there are no more loot quests and no 6v6, and the power level advantages are gone.

Even though the power level advantages didn’t play a significant role in Destiny 1, their removal in Destiny 2 represents a break with the lore that describes the Iron Banner as testing the light of the Guardians. That the light level (power level) now no longer matters is therefore surprising.

At its core, the Iron Banner mode in Destiny 2 is nothing but a quick play without conflict and dominance with other generic weapons and armor.

In the meantime, it is confirmed that there will be not only new Iron Banner armor but also new Iron Banner weapons. What they will look like is not yet known.

Does Destiny 2 lack a hated feature – the grind?

The Prestige Raid does not generate storms of enthusiasm

Bungie’s announcement of the Prestige Raid also caused discontent. For the new mode does not come with an increase in level cap, as was the case in Destiny 1. Since the Prestige armor sets are already known (which offer little new), many Guardians are now questioning why they should even play the Prestige mode.

Robert says: The situation is currently very confused. Bungie had already announced before the launch of Destiny 2 that they wanted to make the game more accessible for beginners. This has clearly been achieved. However, this comes with massive losses in the endgame grind that, especially hardcore players in Destiny 1, had kept engaged for a long time and has now been completely removed.

And it is these hardcore players who are now voicing their opinions about Bungie’s direction. They see “their” baby in danger and are loudly expressing their frustration. On Reddit, the largest platform for players of Destiny, the frustration over the direction Destiny 2 has taken runs deep.

The game is too diluted, lacking groundbreaking innovations or surprises, so much potential has been wasted. It will be interesting to see how Bungie will handle this criticism and which direction Destiny 2 will take with the upcoming DLCs.

What do you think of the current discussion? A lot of hot air, or do you also see the future development of Destiny 2 critically?

Hearthstone: Wählt Euren Champion für Gratis-Packungen – Aber wen?

Benedict Grothaus 7. October 2017 Reading time 3 minutes

After the Global Games in August, Blizzard is now directly announcing the next Hearthstone tournament. Of course, the Hearthstone Champion Tour, or HCT, also features a “Choose Your Champion” event. We have some tips on who has the best chances of earning you free packs.

During this year’s summer tournament, the Hearthstone HCT 2017, Blizzard is allowing players to earn card packs again. With the “Choose Your Champion” event (in original “Wählt Euren Champion”), fans can select a player from whose victories they will benefit.

Unlike the Global Games, no team is chosen for the HCT. As in most previous “Choose Your Champion” events, fans must focus on a single player. Choosing the champion is not easy.

Hearthstone Choose Your Champion – The Rewards

Once a champion has been chosen, it’s time to wait and cheer for the favorite.

The group stage matches start on Friday, October 13 and end on the following Sunday, October 15, 2017. Every victory of the champion also means a victory for the fans: With each match won by the favorite, you receive a free card pack from the Frozen Throne expansion.

Hearthstone KFT Frozen Throne Card Packs

Until Thursday, October 12, 2017 at 08:59 AM CET, you can still make a selection. Once a champion is chosen, this choice cannot be changed!

If you want to learn more about tournaments related to Hearthstone and Blizzard, check out our schedule for Blizzcon!

The Players

In the HCT, 16 players from around the world compete in four groups. Many well-known faces are participating, including the current World Champion Pavel from Russia.

Hearthstone HCT Summer Championhip Choose Your Champion Roster

Choose Your Champion – But Which One?

The question of which player will win this tournament has been circulating for some time in posts on reddit. The majority of players rely on their gut feeling and will likely choose the world champion Pavel.

User Reelox14, however, has put in a bit more effort and analyzed the participants individually and conducted thousands of simulations.

According to the calculations of the Reddit user, the top 4, Tom60229, Uya, Surrender, and Empanizado have a slightly higher probability of winning than their competitors. According to the simulation, Tom60229 has the highest probability of winning.

All are playing with the “Holy Trinity” of decks: Jade Druid, Razakus Priest, and Tempo Rogue. The fourth deck for Empanizado and Surrender is Murloc Paladin, for Uya it is a Keleseth Zoo Warlock, and Tom60229 plays a Highlander Control Mage.

Hearthstone HCT Summer Championhip Choose Your Champion Tom — Tom60229 – is the favorite of the simulation:

The composition of the decks is important, as a veto can ban a player’s strongest deck, which levels the playing field.

It is also important to note that OldBoy and Amkys are playing rather unusual and weak lists with Control Paladin, Quest Warrior, and N’Zoth Control Warrior. With the element of surprise, they might snag a few unexpected victories.

The Match Schedule

To get a better idea of who might advance, the match schedule is also important. As mentioned above, the participants play in four groups of four players each. The four players with the highest chance of winning are all in different groups, affirming their status as favorites. Only in Group D could the balance shift, as Pavel is in this group.

Hearthstone HCT Summer Championhip Choose Your Champion Matchups

You can choose your champion directly on the official website for the “Choose Your Champion” event!

Benedict says: It is really hard to make a selection here. The numbers are even tighter than at the Global Games. The consensus from reddit is to choose Pavel because he can rely on experience and enjoys a certain status as the world champion. However, I would lean more towards the mathematics that make Tom60229 the favorite. I am, however, sure that neither champion will leave you empty-handed.

Whether the decks retain their strength will also reveal itself in the tournament – as the nerfs are hitting almost all popular decks!

WoW: Who is Lorthe? Warrior kills Blood Elf boss solo!

Cortyn 7. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

City raids in WoW are for wimps. Real “checkers” take down a faction boss solo!

If you want to gather PvP achievements in World of Warcraft, you cannot avoid visiting the capitals of the opposing faction. There, you have to extinguish the life lights of the respective leaders of the races, because only then will you get a cool war bear as a mount. Usually, such “city raids” consist of 40 or more players who quickly storm into the enemy city and fight the respective leader. Normally, the mayhem should be over before any enemy even notices.

But obviously, those are “old times” – because today, you do such things solo!

Like the warrior with the telling name Swagstallion, who simply penetrated alone into the blood elf city of Silvermoon. There, he took on Lor’themar Theron, the regent of the blood elves.

In a fight lasting just over 47 minutes, he defeated the leader of the Sin’dorei. He used the battle drums (which function as battle frenzy/heroes) 3 times. Even the additional adds of the fight respawned halfway through.

But not a single horde player could be persuaded to assist the regent lord.

Especially the leader of the blood elves has it particularly tough. Silvermoon is literally “in the middle of nowhere” in Azeroth. Up in the north of Lordaeron, hardly any player lingers, as Silvermoon no longer offers a particularly appealing city, nor does it contain any special vendors that would make the journey worthwhile. Only roleplayers sometimes wander there – but precisely for the reason that no one else is hanging around.

What was your most powerful boss that you took down solo?

There is now a final statement from Blizzard regarding flying on Argus.

Overwatch: Nerft Reapers Schattenschritt! – Die PotGs der Woche

Cortyn 7. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

There are many skills in Overwatch that players do not like. However, Reaper’s Shadow Step is simply perfect for a bit of “BM”…

Every week, absurd, exciting, or simply funny moments happen in Overwatch that are often captured in a “Play of the Game.” We searched through social media and picked out three special highlights for you. Enjoy our three “Play of the Game” moments of the week in Overwatch!

The Shadow Step of Reaper is only popular with a few players. It’s difficult to aim with him, and the loud sound effect usually gives away the Edgelord long before he can do any damage. Player TheDankestPrince shows that you can also pull off cool moves with Shadow Step. For example, when the opposing D.Va activates her ultimate, he ports to safety – but just stands still. Anyone who masters Reaper well enough to utilize that brief moment of invulnerability deserves a mention. One could have simply stepped around the corner … but that wouldn’t be cool enough!

Will we ever be able to fly in Argus? That’s what the WoW boss says

Cortyn 6. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

Flying in Argus remains a hot topic in the WoW community. Blizzard’s opinion on this is, however, rock solid.

With Patch 7.3, World of Warcraft received the new zone Argus. But even while players were slowly battling through the quest areas Mac’Aree, Antoran Wastes, and Krokuun, they sorely missed one feature: Flying.

Because on the demon-infested homeworld of the Eredar, flying mounts must stay in the stables or at least on the ground of reality.

This already caused multiple outcries in the WoW community. For weeks, part of the players has been demanding that Argus should finally be opened for flying, which has been repeatedly denied.

Flying in Argus? Will never happen!

In the last Developer Q&A with Game Director Ion Hazzikostas, the topic came up once again. A user asked whether flying could be activated in an interim patch – such as 7.3.2 or 7.3.5.

Hazzikostas replied that Argus was created with the certainty that flying there will never be possible. Many places are not completely accessible for good reason. There are no plans to allow flying during or after the Legion expansion in the three Argus areas.

Moreover, it has always been the case that there is at least one zone where flying is not permitted. In Mists of Pandaria, it was the Isle of Thunder and the Timeless Isle; in Cataclysm, for example, Tol Barad. The aim is simply to create a different perception of the game world by not allowing flying everywhere.

WoW Legion Flying — Flying in Argus? It won’t happen!

In the official forums, there are still numerous threads on this topic. For some players, the inability to fly is an absolute deal breaker, which is why they (according to their statements) strictly avoid Argus and simply do not find any enjoyment in the areas.

What do you think? Should one be allowed to fly in Argus? Or is it good that Blizzard remains true to its plans here?

Maybe Blizzard will change its mind after all – we would probably find out at BlizzCon 2017. Here are all the important dates!

Destiny 2: Trials of the Nine on 6.10. – Map and Game Mode

Tom Rothstein 6. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

In the MMO shooter Destiny 2, the Trials of the Nine begin today, on October 6th. Which map will be played, what is the mode?

Today, Friday, marks the start of the fourth Trials in the history of Destiny 2. You can use this to warm up for the first Iron Banner event in Destiny 2.

As soon as the Trials of the Nine conclude on October 10th at 11 AM, Lord Saladin will arrive in the Tower to gather the Guardians for the Iron Banner. In the coming days, the PvP fans among you will have plenty to do.

This week’s Trials of the Nine will be played in the Survival mode. They take place on the map The Death Cliffs.

What are the Trials of the Nine in the Survival mode?

This time you will be fighting in the Trials in the “Survival” mode. It’s a round-based PvP mode.

You compete in teams of four against each other, with all four players per team sharing a limited number of lives. If a Guardian on your team is defeated, it costs you one life. If you defeat an opposing Guardian, it costs the opponent one life. The defeated Guardian respawns automatically after a few seconds. Reviving by teammates is not possible.

If all lives are used up, you cannot respawn anymore. If the team that has no lives left is completely defeated, a round is over. Win multiple rounds to decide the match.

After each match, you will receive “Trials of the Nine” tokens, which you can redeem at the vendor for Trials engrams. Additionally, you will receive extra rewards for 3, 5, and 7 wins. If you achieve a flawless run (7 wins without a loss), you can claim an extra reward. If you have 3 losses on the ticket, you must start over.

In the Trials of the Nine, there is no matchmaking. You need to assemble your team of 4 players yourself. It is also a “locked-loadout playlist.” This means you cannot change your weapons and armor pieces until you leave the playlist.

You can find all the information about the Trials of the Nine and some Trials rewards here.

The “Early Access” milestone is here – The first ones test Star Citizen 3.0

Schuhmann 6. October 2017 Reading time 2 minutes

Now it has finally worked: The first players can get their hands on Star Citizen 3.0. The space epic reaches the Early Access state – at least for a chosen few.

Star Citizen 3.0 – this is the patch fans have been waiting for months. It has been announced multiple times and has been postponed several times.

3.0 is the patch that finally brings the individual modules of Star Citizen into a larger whole. It is the patch from which Star Citizen resembles what creator Chris Roberts promised backers: the transition from small to large is now seamless – the universe becomes persistent.

But of course, development continues even now: The game is still far from release. 3.0 is officially still part of the alpha of Star Citizen.

Currently, the patch is playable for the “Evocati”, the chosen ones who can test new builds of Star Citizen before anyone else. When Star Citizen 3.0 will be available to all backers is still unknown, it is said to “hopefully happen very soon.”

There have been ongoing discussions about 3.0. For months, everything has revolved around the patch in Star Citizen. At Gamescom, it was said that 3.0 should be released in September, but this was later corrected to October. Fans kept a close eye on the list of “bugs that need to be fixed before we let the Evocati in” – now it is finally time.

Open development leads to frequent delays

Star Citizen is considered an incredibly ambitious project that ultimately aims to provide a thoughtful sci-fi world alongside the real one.

The project is being developed with “crowdfunding” money – players are essentially fronting. Backers have already invested 160 million US dollars in Star Citizen.

There are always controversies surrounding Star Citizen. The most popular accusation: the project is suffering from a “feature creep”, being too overambitious to ever release. Doubters criticize the numerous delays and postponements. Fans point to the massive dimensions of the project.

As a crowdfunding game, Star Citizen relies on an “open development” model, allowing players to constantly observe the developers and discuss the visions of the game, even though it is still far from completion. In Star Citizen, internal timelines are shared with players – these are more susceptible to change than the schedules of studios in a closed development, where only dates that can be reliably met are announced.

3.0 – is now essentially the “Early Access” of Star Citizen

3.0 is considered by Star Citizen, according to Roberts, now as a version that would represent an “Early Access” build in another development system. So from now on, Star Citizen is at the same point as other games that allow non-developers to play for the first time.

That’s why WoW needs more creepiness and horror

Cortyn 6. October 2017 Reading time 3 minutes

Has World of Warcraft lost its horror? We remember zones that did this better!

Although World of Warcraft is a game that thrives on a loving comic style, not everything is rosy in Azeroth. There are plenty of cruel quests, terrible events, and horrible war crimes. However, the game has hardly dared to approach a thematic horror in the latest expansions: horror and spooky elements are only represented in very small amounts.

But that was different once. Especially the classic zones often had a oppressive atmosphere. Not oppressively bleak like the Broken Shore, which was simply overrun by demons. But oppressive in the sense of a not quite clearly defined danger lurking somewhere in the depths of a forest.

The Duskwood – Classic Horror-Mix

Let’s take Duskwood as an example. The whole zone practically smelled of despair and fear. The villagers from Darkshire hated the place and wanted to leave – but they couldn’t. Worgen, zombies, huge spiders and worse creatures roamed the forests everywhere. At every corner, dark eyes blinked from the bushes and the trees formed such a dense canopy that the sun was dimmed.

The area even had a small “mini-dungeon” in the graveyard of Ravenhill. The catacombs go deep underground and anyone who quested here was certainly traveling in the underground vault for 10-15 minutes. You were surrounded by zombies, with their creepy moaning, ghostly necromancers, and other gruesome creatures.

In addition, there were quest lines that often resembled detective stories. Who exactly is responsible for the horrors in Duskwood? Who are the dark riders? What is the deal with Mor’ladim?

And that was still not all. Duskwood had plenty of places that you could “just explore”. There were no quests leading there. There is a creepy grave surrounded by statues like those known only from the altars of storms. Or the portal to the Emerald Dream, which sits in a “crater” in the middle of the area. Also the many abandoned cabins, all the graves – hundreds of spooky scenarios immediately played out in your head without anything being explicitly mentioned.

Other zones also captured this mood. In Tirisfal, the starting area of the Forsaken, there was always a gloomy atmosphere. After all, you had just died and were now forcibly dragged back into unlife, with all the perverted forms and their dark alchemy that were once humans. This continues into the Silverwood and only loses strength in the hills of the Hillsbrad.

Legion and Warlords – No Room for Scary Horror?

All of this could not be achieved by the zones of World of Warcraft Legion and Warlords of Draenor. Sure, Shadowmoon Valley was atmospheric and beautiful – but not scary. Val’Sharah has been tainted by the Emerald Nightmare, but also not scary because all the facts were on the table from the beginning.

The areas of Legion are varied and in the case of Argus and the Broken Shore truly “oppressive” – but not scary. With the new creatures like the Ur’zul, demons formed from the souls and bodies of fallen Draenei into new demons, a good step was already taken.

But I am worried, because the “Void” that was portrayed as really scary at the beginning by the Blade of Xal’atath is already losing its shock factor. When I look at the black splashes in the west of Mac’Aree, I do not fear the Void.

If the rumors and speculations about the next expansion are true, and it looks like they currently are, then the upcoming addon will be about the Old Gods. And where could one better incorporate spooky influence through whispers and eerie secrets, in the best style of Lovecraft?

I at least hope that WoW will become a bit scarier and more mysterious again. But what do you think? Do you want more creepy moments? Or would you prefer cuddly feel-good zones?

Blizzcon 2017 Schedule: Overview of All Dates

Benedict Grothaus 6. October 2017 Reading time 4 minutes

In less than a month, BlizzCon 2017 will take place. The schedule is now set. Blizzard is luring visitors with all sorts of news and tournaments at this year’s fair – including the new expansion for the flagship World of Warcraft. Here are the dates and details.

As every year, BlizzCon will take place in Anaheim again this November. For many fans, this is often a stronger reason to be excited than the local gamescom. Now that host Blizzard has published the schedule, we have compiled the highlights for you.

All times are given in CET.

Friday, November 3, 2017

Opening Ceremony (7:00 PM – 8:00 PM)
World of Warcraft – What’s next? (8:30 PM – 9:30 PM)

This year, it is particularly interesting that the voice actresses of the female heroes of World of Warcraft will have a whole slot. As Jaina has already been announced as the face of BlizzCon, this event seems to hold even more. The authors’ event also has its reasons: Author Christie Golden is now permanently employed by Blizzard.

The WoW events will also be important. After information about the release of the new expansion has already leaked, it will likely be announced directly at 8:30 PM. Information about the current patch 7.3 for Legion, as well as for 7.3.2 and the Antorus raid, will certainly follow.

In addition to information on Overwatch and WoW, there will also be a preview for Hearthstone, StarCraft II, and Heroes of the Storm. The latter will also feature a competition of viewers against developers and streamers.

You can find more information about the reveal of the new WoW expansion in our news.

The Overwatch “Streamer Showdown” is another highlight where well-known faces from the scene will compete against each other in a battle of wits. In the following “Look at the Overwatch League,” new information about Blizzard’s upcoming tournament will be revealed, which many have been waiting for.

However, the whole day is focused more on the behind-the-scenes view at Blizzard. Most of the important announcements will be made on Friday.

Then there was the eSport

BlizzCon, of course, offers not only advertising, information, and news. Tournaments will be held in all games on both days, the preparations for which have been ongoing for quite some time:

Despite some temporal overlaps, there should be something interesting for every fan. We hope this overview can help you navigate for a smooth BlizzCon experience!

However, an announcement for a remake of Diablo 2 and Warcraft 3 will probably be absent at BlizzCon.
