The MMORPG Worlds Adrift is an online game where much is played alone. This is set to change with an upcoming update.
Some aspects of the game are designed for solo play. Because being surrounded by other players all the time is not particularly beneficial for the survival aspect of Worlds Adrift.
However, this does not mean that you are alone all the time. After all, it is an MMORPG, and there are many group activities to engage in.
Crew members will find each other faster
To promote this group play more, the developers are currently working on an update. One problem was for the crew of an airship to reunite when separated. A new and improved “signal fire” is set to help with this. With the new signal fire, you can teleport to the crew leader at any time, no matter where they are – provided that they are in an area you have already been to.
Group play is encouraged
Additionally, a new crew reviver will be introduced. If you are defeated in a battle, this reviver will ensure that you respawn on your ship and are quickly available with your crew again. These new features should ensure that you can interact better as a crew. Playing together in the group should be more enjoyable after the update.
Currently, there is no date yet for when this update for the MMORPG Worlds Adrift will be released.
Cayde-6 has new treasure maps for you in Destiny 2. We show you where to find the treasures.
Once you have completed the Destiny 2 campaign, Cayde-6 has new tasks for you. He sells treasure maps for 4800 Glimmer that lead you to treasures with delicious loot.
These treasure chests can contain various items, from mods and emblems to blue and legendary items, as well as exotic engrams! Sometimes, there are also strange things like diary entries that you can turn in to Cayde-6.
The treasure maps count as weekly activities. This means that every week at the Weekly Reset on Tuesday there are new treasure maps. This week (since September 12th), Cayde-6 sends you to Nessus, where the treasures are hidden.
Treasure Locations on Nessus
Once you have purchased a treasure map, the treasure will be marked on the Nessus map with a spade symbol. These symbols look like this:
You cannot mark the locations – this means you only see the approximate location. You need to search on-site.
This week, there are two treasures near Exodus Black, one treasure is in the Abyss, one is near the Well, and one is in the Verge.
Venero TV shows you the exact locations in the video:

The hero shooter Gigantic is growing. A new hero named Rutger is coming – a tough armadillo! Additionally, there are new skins for existing heroes and monsters.
The colorful and fast-paced hero shooter Gigantic is getting new heroes. The new update “Into Solitude” brings two new monsters that you can summon. Additionally, there is a new hero named Rutger as well as another milestone for player numbers.
Gigantic – New Hero Rutger – Armadillo is suitable as a tank and CC
The new hero Rutger is as quirky as the rest of the Gigantic hero crew. Rutger is a curious mix of an armadillo and a badger. Rutger is tough thanks to his shield and can take a lot of damage. This makes him a good tank. He can also shape the battlefield and slow down enemies.
The following skills are brought into battle by the tough armadillo Rutger:
Clawing Attack: A quick melee attack that also recharges Rutger’s shield
Earth Shock: A charged ability that stuns the enemy in the area with two hits and then knocks them back
Burrow: With this skill, Rutger can hide in the ground and thus flee or attack undisturbed
Rock Barrier: Similar to Mei’s Ice Wall from Overwatch, Rutger can create barriers to stop the enemy
Rock ’N‘ Roll: Rutger’s ultimate allows him to roll forward as an armored ball and knock back enemies. Rutger is immune to crowd control abilities during this.

Additionally, there will be further skins for the heroes Uncle Sven, Wu, and Charnok in the coming days. On September 19th, there will be a monk skin for the frog Wei and a stone cerberus. On September 26th, the “Riftborn Cyclops” will join, and Uncle Sven will receive a “Flower Power Skin”. On October 3rd, a flame student skin for Charnok will follow.
Hand of the Gods (HotG) is now available for free on Steam in Early Access for download. The collectible card strategy game is from Hi-Rez and is based on the god MOBA SMITE. Players have more than just the turn-based card game at their disposal, as there is also a game board. On it, mythological and god-like figures battle each other, which adds a deeper layer of strategy to Hand of the Gods.
From now on, Hand of the Gods: Smite Tactics can be downloaded and played for free on Steam. The turn-based strategy game will be available to players there under the title Early Access.
This is how the gameplay of Hand of the Gods works:
You build an army with game cards of mythological and god-like figures. There are also items like cannons.
You take on the role of a high god like Zeus or Ra and wage war against another god.
Your deck contains mystical creatures, soldiers, and spells. These cost mana, which you gain and must allocate throughout the game.
When you play a creature or soldier card, they are summoned to the battlefield.
Each of the two players has a summoner stone. Whoever is the first to destroy the opponent’s summoner stone wins.
The summoner stone can be attacked by the army on the game board and by spells. The creatures and mythological figures can also attack each other.
Each leader of a pantheon has unique skills, allowing Ra to heal his army or Zeus to boost attack power.
Steam launch comes with new features & new starter pack
Hand of the Gods has been playable for a while via Hi-Rez’s own launcher. A solid player base and community have already formed here, providing substantial feedback to the developers. With the Steam launch, there are new features that the community has long wished for.
“We have taken the feedback from our community and implemented several features that will enhance the gaming experience. Launching Hand of the Gods on Steam is a big step for us. We are excited that many new players will develop their own play styles.” – Scott Lussier, Lead Designer of Hand of the Gods”
New features include:
Overhaul of the combat log
Clans
Deck tracker
With the launch of Hand of the Gods on Steam, a new starter pack will also be released, which contains 7 basic card packs and a skin for Ra,the leader of the Egyptian pantheon. Additional card packs can be earned in-game.
Hand of the Gods will be updated regularly and will receive new cards frequently. A seventh pantheon will soon be introduced: The Hindu pantheon. This will be led by the god Ganesha and will include new god, creature, and spell cards.

The online action game Mirage: Arcane Warfare was on the brink of collapse. With eight players active at the same time, no online game can be sustained in the long run.
The developers of Mirage: Arcane Warfare decided to launch a free promotion. Last weekend, on September 9th and 10th, everyone could get the online game for free and keep it. It is now back on sale at a discounted price. This promotion seems to have saved the game – at least for now.
Player numbers have risen sharply
According to Steamcharts, during peak times of the free promotion, there were more than 43,000 players active simultaneously. This is a huge jump, but it has since leveled off. The number of players has currently stabilized around 830 simultaneous players.
Steamspy reports that around 1.2 million players own the online game. This means that a significant number of players acquired the title over the free weekend. It is estimated that around 1 million new players have joined.
The free promotion was a success
The developers are very enthusiastic about the promotion. The experiment worked and was a great success. The influx of players even caused some server problems, which are now being addressed. A patch is expected to be released soon.
It remains to be seen whether Mirage: Arcane Warfare can maintain its player base. We will find out in the coming weeks.

The new Pokémon GO update 0.75.0 is the biggest update in terms of bug fixes since the game’s release. We will show you which issues are to be addressed.
Quite surprisingly, some trainers found the update 0.75.0 in the Play Stores yesterday. The update is currently rolling out and will be unlocked gradually for different players.
Pokémon experts from TheSilphRoad have focused on data mining regarding the changes in the updates. It quickly became apparent that the developers aimed to address many bugs with this patch. We will show you which ones here.
Patch 0.75.0 / 1.45.0 APK Data Mining
As soon as a new update is available via APK, experts use their software tools to examine all changes in the updates. Often, developers hide details and do not disclose everything that a new update entails.
When data mining update 0.75.0, it is noticeable that it is the largest bug-fixing update since the release of the game. While the developers are likely already working on the next major updates, they are currently focusing on the stability of the game.
In recent weeks, trainers have noticed many bugs and issues that are to be fixed now.
Missing Icons in PokéDex
The last update (0.73.0) introduced a bug in Pokémon GO that caused the icons of Pokémon in the PokéDex to disappear. In the new update 0.75.0, some fixes have been implemented to address these PokéDex issues.
A lot of code has been rewritten and various lines completely removed. In the coming days, it should become clear whether these changes can actually resolve the issues.
Invisible Avatar / Incorrect Textures
Trainers have already reported that the texture issues in the new patch 0.75.0 have not yet been fully resolved. However, there are solutions in the update that at least make the bug appear less frequently. This should prevent interesting images like in the following screenshot from occurring as often:
Source Reddit: MaltAnderson
Arena Attack Animations
This bug fix seems to eliminate the attack animations that were incorrectly displayed under an avatar. Players appeared to have superpowers because of this. You’ll probably have to say goodbye to the Clark Kent power.
Source Reddit: InternetFrien
Raid Zoom Bug
In the code, experts found lines indicating a bug fix for arena intros. Sometimes a sequence was played twice, zooming into the game.
Raid Lobby Bug
The frequency at which a raid lobby is rendered has been changed. The developers may have made these changes to more accurately determine the number of lobby players. Initial reports indicate that the issues have not completely disappeared yet.
New Debugging Tools
With new tools, Niantic apparently aims to avoid or combat future issues. These affect arena battles and the game’s performance.
The experts from TheSilphRoad emphasize once again that this is one of the largest changes concerning improved game performance.
We hope that you will all receive the update in the coming days and benefit from the bug fixes.
MIDA Multi-Tool in Destiny 2 – how to get the MIDA Multi-Tool and the MIDA Mini-Tool. This is how the Exotic quest works, these are the special perks! Guide.
To obtain the MIDA Multi-Tool, you first need the MIDA Mini-Tool. How do you get both weapons?
MIDA Mini-Tool – Location – Quest
Your first task is to successfully complete the story campaign of Destiny 2. You cannot access any MIDA before that.
After the campaign, quests will be unlocked in all four worlds. You can recognize these quests by a crown symbol on a blue background.
For the MIDA Quest, you need to accept the quest line “Expand” in the European Dead Zone. It is located near Devrim Kay. The recommended power level is 260.
This quest line consists of several steps where you get to heat things up against the Fallen. The steps are self-explanatory. Just follow the instructions. Only when you have mastered them all will you receive the MIDA Mini-Tool from Devrim Kay. Nexxoss Gaming shows you the quest steps in detail:

The MIDA Mini-Tool is a legendary submachine gun with solar damage. It has the special perk of granting speed bonuses when you also have the MIDA Multi-Tool equipped. This means there are synergy effects. The intrinsic perk of the Mini-Tool is that you can move faster.
Important Note: Make sure you have an energy weapon slot free when you receive the weapon. There is currently a problem that the MIDA Mini-Tool is not being sent correctly to the post office. You may not receive the weapon until Bungie resolves the issue. Therefore, ensure a free slot to avoid the post office problem. Update: The problem has been resolved. You can pick up the weapon from Devrim Kay.

How to get the MIDA Multi-Tool in Destiny 2 – MIDA Multitool Exotic Quest
Once you have obtained the MIDA Mini-Tool, you can go to Gunsmith Banshee-44, who is located in the social space after the campaign:
The Gunsmith will give you a quest where you need to defeat enemies with precision shots (50 total) and also kill several enemies without reloading (25 total). You should do this all with a scout rifle. He wants to reconstruct the MIDA blueprints.
Once that’s done, return to the Gunsmith. You should dismantle scout rifles of Rare (blue) quality or higher. After dismantling 5, you can continue.
Banshee-44 has another task for you: You need to achieve 50 submachine gun kills from the air. So take your MIDA Mini-Tool, jump in the air, and blast the enemies below you.
After this, return to the Gunsmith, and he will hand you the MIDA Multi-Tool.
The Perks of the MIDA Multi-Tool
The MIDA Multi-Tool in Destiny 2 is an exotic scout rifle that deals kinetic damage. It has a fire rate of 200 and a magazine size of 16.
The special perks are:
MIDA Multi-Tool: The weapon provides a movement speed boost.
MIDA Radar: When using the scope, the radar remains active.
The weapon still has the same traits that defined it in Destiny 1.
In Destiny 2, the guide games mode is active. What do guide clans and solo players need to know? What about the tickets?
To allow Guardians who are not in a clan to participate in endgame group activities such as the Nightfall strike or the raid, Bungie developed Guided Games for Destiny 2 – the guide games.
In these endgame activities, there is no “normal” player search where players are randomly matched. In Destiny 1, players had to organize themselves in forums and social networks to form a fireteam for these activities. Many did not go through this effort, resulting in a large portion of the player base never completing a raid.
The guide games aim to change that.
What are guide games and when are they active? – Guide Games Beta
The guide games allow solo Guardians to find a clan directly in-game that will guide them through the selected endgame activity. The search works similarly to a dating app: The solo Guardian is shown a clan along with its emblem and description. If the clan appeals to them, they can choose that clan and join it for the challenge. If not, they can display a new clan.
This aims to connect players with clans that are compatible to provide the best possible experience.
The guide games are not fully available at the launch of Destiny 2:
A guide games beta is taking place from September 13 to September 26, 2017, which is only active for the Nightfall strike. During this time, all clans can serve as guide clans, but only solo players who have received a guide games ticket at the post office may participate. Only about 30%-50% of the Guardians are expected to have received a ticket. Bungie wants to avoid having too many seekers and too few guide clans in the early days.
From September 26 at 7 PM, 100% access to searching for the raid and Nightfall strike is expected. After that, the beta will end.
Joining a guide game – What do seekers and guide clans need to consider? – Nightfall Tickets
You can start a guide game as a solo player or as a guide clan. Each role has different requirements.
Seeker (Solo Player):
You start the activity by clicking on the orange symbol next to it. Now select the option “Seeker” under “Select Mode”.
You must fulfill all joining requirements, such as power level. For the Nightfall strike, it is 240 Power.
You need at least one guide games ticket for the activity to join as a seeker. In the beta, 12 Nightfall strike tickets are granted. The tickets will be reset at each season reset. This means you cannot participate in guide games an unlimited number of times. The duration of a season is not known.
The clan status of a seeker does not matter.
Clan Guides:
You start the activity by clicking on the orange symbol next to it. Now select the option “Guide” under “Select Mode”.
Participants must fulfill all joining requirements, such as power level.
If a clan offers a guide game, at least half of the fireteam must consist of members of the same clan. Specifically, for the Nightfall strike, two members must belong to the same clan, while for the raid, three players must belong to the same clan. There are also expected to be guide games for 4-player fireteams (probably the Trials), where two members must belong to the same clan.
Clan guides do not need a ticket.
Guardian Oath and Guardian Oath Score
In the clan overview in the game, there is a so-called “Guardian Oath Score” below the clan level. This is related to the guide games:
Before starting a guide game, both seekers and guides are prompted to accept the Guardian Oath. This states that they will be helpful, attentive, mindful, willing to teach/learn, and friendly.
The Guardian Oath Score then indicates how well a clan adheres to the Guardian Oath. This means: A better score is awarded when successfully completing or amicably finishing guide game activities.
Seekers can view a clan’s Guardian Oath Score while searching for a clan for the guide game.
Leaving a guide game, penalties, and bans
Every participant in a guide game can leave the game before completing the activity, but penalties may occur if the fireteam does not agree.
Cancellation: Players who cancel without agreement receive a time penalty. They will then be unable to start a new guide game for a limited time. Once a player leaves the match with a penalty, all other players can leave the activity without penalty.
Agreeing to quit: If a player wants to leave the activity without penalty, they can summon their ghost and “agree to quit”. The other fireteam members can then also summon their ghosts and agree to quit, allowing the player to leave without penalty.
If someone violates the code of conduct in the clan motto, clan name, or “About Us” description, they may be warned and banned. With a warning, you can change the entries immediately and participate in guide games again, while bans can mean you cannot do so for 7 days, 30 days, or ever again. Bans can also be permanent.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) is still played on a single map, but this area is becoming more extensive and bountiful. The reason is a new town called Kameshki in the north of the map, where plenty of loot but also great danger awaits.
In PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, millions of players have been slaughtering each other for months on the same map. The lonely island in a rundown Eastern Bloc style, however, is not static. Rather, the developers constantly change things or even add entire cities.
Therefore, a new settlement called Kameshki will soon be located in the northeast of the map!
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds – New Town Kameshki – The Rocky Road to Loot
Kameshki is currently located on the test servers of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds in the northeast – just east of the place Stalber – by the coast. While you are quite away from the shot, according to players on the test server, Kameshki is said to be overflowing with loot!
Particularly, sniper scopes are allegedly lying around in abundance there. Additionally, the stylish Tommy Gun is supposed to spawn regularly there. The iconic gangster firearm from the 30s was previously only available from dropped loot crates. However, it is now said to be a regular, rare weapon spawn.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds – Is the Trip to Kameshki Worth It?
With all that cool loot, the trip to Kameshki should actually be a matter of course for every player of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. But before you all head to the northeast of the island, keep the following in mind:
On the test server (and likely on the live servers later as well), Kameshki is currently a chaotic scene. Masses of players are vying for the fat loot, so it can get quite brutal in this little town.
Kameshki is extremely far from the island center. So, you may not have much time to get there and especially to escape the city when the energy field continues to expand.
So think carefully about whether you really want to go to Kameshki and put yourself through that stress. Alternatively, you can just ambush the routes to Kameshki, take out loot-filled players, and comfortably loot their stuff.
The new town Kameshki will arrive later this month with the large update in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.
In the space spectacle EVE Online memorable things are happening again. One of the largest alliances, the Circle of Two, has been pushed to the brink by betrayal. The nefarious mastermind of the opponents seems to be triumphing.
EVE Online is an epic space simulation for most players about trade, wars, and adventures. For outsiders, the game has the charm of a well-organized Excel spreadsheet. For the most powerful players, EVE is like “Game of Thrones in space.”
If winning militarily isn’t possible … then a juicy intrigue might still bring success.
The Empire Strikes Back
The controversial group “Goonswarm” is led in EVE Online by a person named Alex Gianturco, who calls himself “The Mittani.” He often presents himself as a dark, tyrannical villain. The survival MMO H1Z1 once hired the group to stir trouble in their game. The idea was: The rest of the players should have something to hate and fight against.
Goonswarm was involved in a major conflict in 2016, including with the alliance “Circle of Two.” It did not go well for “Goonswarm” – they took quite a beating against a large coalition of opponents. The war was called “World War Bee.” Goonswarm could only retreat against this overpowering force and lick their wounds.
One of the important people from Circle of Two is known as “The Judge.” According to Polygon, The Judge recently traveled to Iceland and attended a session of the player council there. During this real-life meeting, he is said to have been persuaded by Goonswarm members to betray his alliance. It is said that The Judge was turned.
The Judge Betrays Alliance, Steals Trillions
Now The Judge has cheated the alliance Circle-of-Two out of trillions of ISK in the game. Moreover, he has handed over the powerful space stations to the enemies. According to reports from PC Gamer, thousands of Circle-of-Two pilots are currently stranded with no home.
The enemies are also laying siege to the Keepstar citadel of Circle of Two, which is the EVE version of a Death Star.
The leader of Circle of Two, gigX, was apparently asleep while all this was happening. When he later woke up, he was so enraged about this betrayal and the coup that he threatened to cut off The Judge’s hands. He said: “The Judge, feel free to use your hands to type here … as long as you still can.” Before that, he had inquired in the alliance chat about The Judge’s real name, address, and other details.
He did this in the alliance chat – which was streamed publicly on Twitch by The Judge and others.
This led to a ban by developers CCP. The alliance is therefore also without an official leader in the game.
As you can imagine, the “evil spacelord,” The Mittani, is in a great mood on Twitter in the meantime. On Twitter, he celebrates his success and enjoys the delicious revenge.

The Tower returns in Destiny 2 and with it a few activities and mini-games for Guardians to pass the time. We present them to you!
Who doesn’t know him? That one colleague who takes what feels like an eternity in the Tower to sort his gear. Or that friend who says he will be online “in a minute,” which quickly turns into 15.
So you don’t get bored while cursing this special colleague, Bungie has hidden a few mini-games in the Tower again that you can play to pass the time.
The Floor is Lava
This game is probably familiar to everyone from their childhood. The goal of the game is to reach a certain spot without touching the ground, or else it’s “Game Over.” You can play this game in the new Tower of Destiny 2 once you have completed the main campaign.
You can find the mini-game one level above your starting point in the Tower. The corresponding spot is marked with the words “Don’t pick me up”:
The warning for the mini-game “The Floor is Lava”
When you activate this warning, you start glowing red, and a debuff appears on the left side – “The Floor is Lava”. At the same time, a point lights up at the other end of the Tower that you must reach unharmed. You can always just jump off the balcony for fun…
We weren’t the only ones sad to learn that the purple ball in the Tower of Destiny 1 was sneakily flattened by Ghaul. The disturbing images went around the world and took our breath away.
The broken ball in the destroyed Tower of Destiny
But don’t despair – the purple ball is back. And this time you can prove your skills and change the color of the balls. Because when you place the balls in certain spots in the Tower, they disappear after a little fireworks, and a new ball of a different color appears!
If you place the purple ball in the right spot in the courtyard, a green ball appears
If you place the green ball correctly, a black ball appears
If the black ball is in the right place, the blue ball spawns
If you also manage to place the blue ball correctly, a giant ball appears in the center of the Tower. Since this looks like the Traveler, it will of course be welcomed with fireworks.
The Traveler’s ball announces itself with fireworks
How you can unlock the Traveler ball is explained in the following video:

Wizards remain a powerful class in The Elder Scrolls Online. But how does the Sorcerer perform in PvE and PvP? And what should one pay attention to in their builds in 2017? Find out here in our ESO guide for Sorcerers!
The Sorcerer in The Elder Scrolls Online is a versatile class that excels particularly well as a damage dealer. However, Sorcerers are not defenseless and can hold their own pretty well even without a tank and healer. Learn more here about an effective PvE DPS build based on Magicka and a PvP specialization based on Stamina.
The Elder Scrolls Online – The Sorcerer as a Magicka Damage Dealer in PvE
Dealing damage is the Sorcerer’s favorite pastime, and this build is particularly well-suited for it. This is a PvE-focused specialization that utilizes Magicka for its skills.
Race: Altmer – The High Elves have a bonus on Magicka and deal more damage with fire, frost, and lightning magic. All three are included in this build! Dark Elves or Bretons are also useful races for this build.
Armor: You only use light armor due to the Magicka bonus.
Weapons: You use a destruction staff for both slots.
Equipment bonuses: You use the “Infused” trait on your weapons to maximize your enchantment charges. Your armors are adorned with the “Divines” trait to ensure your Mundus Stone rocks. For glyphs, you use Magicka glyphs on the armors and Wrath glyphs on the weapons.
Mundus Stone: “The Apprentice” is ideal here, as it increases spell penetration and thus our DPS.
Sets: Particularly suitable are the sets “Necropotence” (drop in Cloudrest) and “Moon Dancer” (drop in the Depths of Lorkhaj).
Attributes: You distribute your points entirely to Magicka.
Elemental Wrath (Ultimate – From Level 50 Destruction Staves)
The Elder Scrolls Online – The Sorcerer as a Stamina Damage Dealer in PvP
This Sorcerer is no scruffy figure with a staff and robe. Rather, he likes to wear heavy armor, swords, shields, and a two-handed weapon. This allows him not only to deal damage but also to withstand hits well.
Race: Races that provide a stamina bonus – both for the maximum value and recovery – are a good choice for this build. Therefore, Orcs, Redguards, Nords, Imperials, and Khajiit are suitable.
Armor: You only use heavy armor, except for the hands and belt, where you opt for medium gear.
Weapons: You use a shield and sword in the first slot, and a two-handed weapon in the second slot.
Equipment bonuses: You use the “Sharpened” trait on your weapons to maximize your penetration. Your armors are equipped with the “Impenetrable” trait to make sure you don’t get crit very easily. For glyphs, you use Stamina glyphs on the armors and weapons.
Mundus Stone: “The Warrior” is good for offensive players, while “The Tower” grants even more Stamina.
Sets: Particularly suitable is the set “Rags of the Bone Pirate” (drop in the dungeon “Blackheart Haven”).
Attributes: You distribute your points entirely to Stamina.
In Destiny 2, the quest “On the Comms” has been discovered. You are to expect the arrival of the World Eater and collect Red Legion communications.
Destiny 2 has been live for some time now, and more guardians are reporting that they have reached character level 20 and completed the campaign. However, the adventure does not end there – for many, the true Destiny experience begins only then. Now, you need to raise your Power level, optimize your gear, discover secrets, dominate the Crucible, and solve more quests and tasks.
One of these “endgame” quests is causing a stir right now. This quest is called “On the Comms” and announces the arrival of a World Eater! What is this about?

“On the Comms” – Quest Guide to Red Legion Communications
According to user reports, you receive the quest “On the Comms” only from character level 20 and after completing the story. It can then randomly drop from enemies – several users report they received the quest from Cabal in the European Dead Zone. There is no specific location, so you have to wait for a random drop.
The “quest” then comes in the form of an item in your Power weapon slot: This item is marked as a quest step and assigns you to go to Nessus and obtain Red Legion communication codes. You need 5 of them.
These communication codes (called “Red Legion Communications” as the items) can randomly drop from the Cabal on Nessus.
The real challenge is to first find Cabal units on Nessus. Venero TV recommends playing the public event in the Artifact’s Edge multiple times. This way, you can quickly get the items:
Once you have found all the communication codes, the next quest step begins: “Expect the Arrival of the World Eater”. According to the description, the decrypted transmissions indicate that something is approaching. One should watch for the “World Eater”.
Expect the Arrival of the World Eater – What is the World Eater?
Currently, the guardians are still waiting for the World Eater. This quest step cannot be completed yet. What the World Eater is, cannot be definitively stated at this time.
However, everything indicates that this is the “Leviathan”, the upcoming raid. In concept art (see our title image) and in a vision at the beginning of the Destiny 2 campaign, a huge, fish-like structure with a wide-open mouth can be seen:
All previous information regarding this thing shows that the raid will take place therein. If you want to read more information on these raid theories, you can read them in the linked article.
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
Getting the Rat King in Destiny 2 – here’s how to find the exotic pistol. First, you need to solve the riddle “The Rat King’s Friends”.
Even during the gameplay premiere of Destiny 2, the Rat King attracted attention – even though no one knew this name back then. A pistol with an intricately designed barrel was showcased both in gameplay material and in a display case:
This weapon features rats depicted as they apparently dig a tunnel through the barrel. Due to this design alone, the Rat King is currently considered one of the most coveted weapons in Destiny 2.
How to get the exotic pistol Rat King in Destiny 2 – Exotic Quest for the Rat King
Sloane is waiting for you at the Siren’s Watch!
You can only have a chance at the Rat King after you have completed the story campaign. Then, quests will be unlocked in all four worlds. You will recognize these quests by a crown symbol on a blue background.
For the Rat King quest, you must accept the quest “The Enemy of My Enemy” on Titan. Sloane needs your help and is located in the Siren’s Watch, New Pacific Arcology.
In the second step of the quest, you need to find a methane reactor. This mission will give you the first clue about the Rat King.
At the end of the mission, you will receive a kinetic weapon called “The Rat King’s Friends” as a reward. However, this item is not a real weapon, but a quest step where you must solve a riddle.
Detectives, take note: This is a riddle to obtain the Rat King! Shooting isn’t an option yet.

You must solve multiple riddle steps for “The Rat King’s Friends“. Each riddle has a short, rhyming text. As a hint, it says that you should solve the riddle with other rats. This means you need a fireteam. Here’s how it goes:
First, you need to complete three patrol missions in a fireteam with at least one friend (which world supposedly doesn’t matter – Titan has been confirmed by Venero TV). Then you’ll get a new riddle.
In the next step, you must complete two public events with your fireteam.
For the next riddle step, you need to complete two PvP matches with your fireteam – they do not have to be won. According to user reports, strikes can also be completed.
Finally, you should complete the Nightfall strike with your fireteam. At least 5 minutes must be left on the timer. This is the most difficult step, as a high power level is required. Then you will receive the Rat King as a reward.

The Rat King is an exotic pistol with a fire rate of 300 and a magazine size of 15.
The special perks of the Rat King do the following:
Rat Pack: The weapon becomes stronger when nearby allies are also equipped with the Rat King. The effect can stack up to 6 times. When this effect is active, the weapon glows red. The more allies nearby, the faster you can shoot with the Rat King.
Vermin: If you reload immediately after a kill, you will briefly become invisible.
By the way: The Rat King has an ornament that allows you to darken its appearance:
The latest adventure module Tomb of Annihilation of the MMORPG Neverwinter has been released for PS4 and Xbox One. This brings new challenges that are being met with “ok” by PC players.
Tomb of Annihilation takes you to the jungle of Chult, a new play area packed with undead and dinosaurs. Here, you will try to uncover the secret of a magical curse that has the city of Neverwinter in its iron grip. You will face many challenges and experience plenty of adventures. The highlight is the dungeon “Tomb of Annihilation”, where many deadly traps will make your life difficult.
Barren adventures in the cool jungle
While players on Xbox One and PS4 are now setting out for the first time to explore the jungle of Chult, PC players have been doing so for some time. The feedback on the latest adventure module has been somewhat mixed. The new area has been received positively. The jungle is varied and offers a lot of new content. However, the quests have not been as well received. It is criticized that it is simply more of the same.
Mostly quests in which you must kill a certain number of monsters or find some items – typical MMORPG filler quests.
Quests need more variety
Andreas believes: Neverwinter relies heavily on such quests in all other modules as well as in the main game, and with Tomb of Annihilation, it seems that fans have now reached a point where they have simply had enough. The developers will have a hard time providing enough variety and excitement for the next module.
The player numbers according to Steamcharts are actually very stable, but the developers of the MMORPG Neverwinter should seriously consider the feedback from fans and incorporate more varied quests in the future.

If you didn’t manage to get the Rat King before the weekly reset of Destiny 2, you’re in luck! We’ll show you why!
The first weekly reset of Destiny 2 has brought us a new Nightfall strike. It’s in the Tangled Shore – this strike was playable in the beta.
To obtain the exotic pistol Rat King, you need to complete a Nightfall with 5 minutes remaining in the final step. This was a challenging task last week – the new Nightfall this week makes it easier!
You will be dealing with the following modifications this week:
Prism: Rotating elements. When the respective element is active, your damage dealt increases significantly, while damage from other elements is reduced. Kinetic damage and incoming damage are not affected.
Time Loop: Rings – Vex time gates have appeared. Pass through them to extend the mission timer.
Note: The Prism modification is currently bugged. The element that deals increased damage should be permanently displayed in the HUD. This is currently not the case. Always call out the active element and remember it to maximize your damage.
The Nightfall strike starts with 11 minutes remaining, and if the timer runs out, it’s back to orbit, and the mission fails. Properly managing the Prism modifier is key to completing the strike in the required time. Here’s how you should equip yourself when the modifier is active.
A Vex time portal from the Nightfall “The Tangled Shore”
The second modifier ensures you gain time when you pass through specific Vex time gates. You get an additional 30 seconds this way. Keep an eye out for these and make sure to collect all gates. They can appear one at a time or multiple times at one location.
If you are surrounded by many enemies, always ask yourself whether you can just keep going. Enemies only delay you and cost you time. Unlike last week’s Nightfall, defeating minor enemies does not grant you extra time.
Boss Fight Strategy
The boss fight is tough, as it is a Nightfall strike. Therefore, it’s even more important not to go into the fight unprepared. The boss fight itself will occur in three phases.
In the first phase, make sure that one Guardian deals with the pesky Harpies to distract them, while the other two can deal damage to the boss. Once the boss has lost enough health, the phase changes and his annoying friends disappear.
In the next phase, focus on killing the minor enemies before turning your attention to the boss. Only dealing damage to the boss will quickly get you overwhelmed. This task is for everyone!
In the final boss phase, you will face more Harpies and Goblins than usual. Two Guardians should focus entirely on the minor enemies and only shoot the boss if circumstances allow. One Guardian should completely focus on the final boss.
If you collect all Vex time portals and take down the boss quickly, you should have more than five minutes left to call the Rat King your own! This week should be significantly easier than last week.

Infusing has been revamped in Destiny 2 . What has changed specifically? And what do mod components have to do with it? We answer the most pressing questions.
Since the release of Destiny 2, Guardians have been trying various ways to maximize their power level. A common method for this is infusing.
What is infusing and when should you do it in Destiny 2?
Infusing refers to the process of merging a high power-level gear piece into an item with a low power level to raise the power level of the weaker item. The infused item disappears.
Infusing only works with weapons and armor pieces of Legendary (purple) and Exotic (yellow) quality. Only these can be upgraded. However, items of lower quality (blue) can be “infused into” these items.
Infusing makes sense, for example, if you want to continue using a weapon with a low power level because you handle it particularly well: The weapon feels right, or you just find the design cool.
Weapons in Destiny 2 have a variety of hidden properties that influence shooting behavior and determine whether a weapon feels “good” or not.
The basic principle of infusing reappears in Destiny 2, albeit in a modified form.
In Destiny 2, you can only infuse weapons when you have a second weapon of the same type with a higher power level. This means that a shotgun can only be improved if you have a second, better shotgun on hand.
This is a new feature compared to Destiny 1, where you could infuse across weapon categories. So if you want to upgrade a specific weapon type, look for weapons of the same kind. By the way, infusing costs you Glimmer. It can also cost Legendary Shards – depending on the gear’s quality.
The mod components – The devil is in the detail – Why sometimes 5 points are missing
New in Destiny 2 are the mods, specific modifications that allow you to enhance your gear. The gameplay varieties are diverse, including different elements or reload perks, everything is there. Among other things, you can get a mod that increases the power level of the gear item by 5.
An example: Your power weapon has a power level of 250. Now you receive a second power weapon of the same type with a power level of 265 (260 normal and +5 points due to the modifiers). You infuse the weapon with a power level of 265 into the weapon with 250.
As a result, you receive a power weapon with a power level of 260. What happened? The weapon to be infused had a mod that increased the power by 5. Since the weapon is destroyed in the infusion process, the mod is also destroyed.
What sounds like a disadvantage works in the opposite case as well. If the weapon being upgraded contains this mod, it benefits from it when infused.
A new cinematic is available in World of Warcraft at the end of the quests. You can check it out now!
Since this morning (September 13, 2017), the final chapter of the Argus campaign from World of Warcraft: Legion is available. The quests surrounding “The War of Light and Shadow” deal with the fundamental forces in the cosmos of Warcraft. At the end of the new quest, there is a visit to an instance – at the end of which there is a cinematic.
Spoiler warning: If you don’t want to know what happens at the end, you should not read further.
The Cinematic in the Seat of the Triumvirate
In the cinematic, we witness how Alleria channels the powers of the Void to destroy a fallen Naaru. In the end, she absorbs its powers, although it is not entirely clear whether this really happens of her own free will.
Alleria herself is filled with the magic of the Void and resembles scarcely a regular High Elf – even though her eyes are still blue. Check out the video here:

Interestingly, Alleria had previously experimented with the powers of the Void and was punished for it by being captured by the Naaru Xe’ra (the Naaru that also wanted to purify Illidan).
If you don’t know the underlying backstory yet, you should make a direct trip to Argus and start the final story chapter on the Vindikaar. This ultimately leads into the new dungeon, the Seat of the Triumvirate. From here, Velen, Archimonde, and Kil’jaeden once ruled over the Eredar. And today, only devastation remains at this place and a Naaru that was left behind during the escape from Argus.
Over the millennia, the Naaru grew weaker and weaker until it ultimately became a creature of the Void – and it is exactly this creature that you seek in the dungeon together with Alleria.
Cortyn says: Definitely a cool story development, although I find “Void Elves” a bit “out there” – but what else did I expect on the homeworld of the Draenei? However, I am firmly convinced that using the Void will backfire in the long run. I can’t explain the dark laughter (second 15-17) any other way. But at least they managed to make a 20-year-old character like Alleria interesting again. I want to know how it goes on …
The next map of Overwatch is around the corner. We tell you the release date when Junkertown will be playable.
Several weeks ago at Gamescom 2017, the next map for Overwatch was revealed: Junkertown. Along with a small, funny cinematic featuring Roadhog and Junkrat, the excitement among players was high. A few days later, the map landed on the PTR for everyone interested to test it thoroughly.
Junkertown releases next week
Now Blizzard has released an official preview video of Junkertown and also revealed the release date. Junkertown will be available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on September 19, 2017 – that is, in one week.
The preview video provides some exciting insights into the creation of Junkertown. For example, you can see how Blizzard models different parts of the map and get some interesting background information.

Especially exciting will be the info about the “Queen”. She is story-wise the leader of the Junkers and is considered the sole ruler of Junkertown. Anyone who wants to achieve something must get past the Queen and needs her approval. Previously, she was a kind of “gladiator” herself, as there is a large arena in Junkertown where piloted mechs fight against each other.
Junkertown itself will be a payload map. The attackers must escort the payload in the form of gold, packed with a thick bomb, deep into the heart of Junkertown to play a big trick on the Queen and vanish with all of her belongings. The developers paid attention to many details, and numerous houses are traversable to set ambushes or find cover.
Are you already looking forward to the new map? Or do you care little about Junkertown?
But that’s not all: Bungie had to extend the maintenance twice due to complications and “new issues”. Overall, the servers were down from 5 PM to 11 PM – ruining the evening for many.
However, the maintenance brought the update 1.03, officially named “Hotfix 1.0.1.2”. This has brought numerous improvements and new features. We summarize the changes.
Patch Notes 1.03 – Clan Overview available, issue with MIDA Mini-Tool resolved
The following changes are mentioned in the official patch notes:
The Clan Overview with the list of all Clan members is now displayed in the game.
The issue where some players did not receive the MIDA Mini-Tool when they had a full weapon inventory has been resolved. They can now pick up the missing weapon from Devrim Kay in the EDZ.
A rare issue that could lead to crashes has been fixed.
Guide Games are now active, hate symbol removed
There are more new features that took place on the night from Tuesday to Wednesday:
Yesterday, Bungie mentioned that a “hate symbol” was found on gloves in the game, which they want to remove as soon as possible. The image has now been removed from the “shared game world”. So it shouldn’t be visible when you run around in the game with it. However, it continues to be displayed during inspection or on the item symbol. A hotfix is planned for next week to remove this completely.
If you are suffering from Cabbage errors, Bungie has published a solution approach.
A problem was encountered where players did not receive the Prestige Nightfall Aura. If you have already completed the Prestige Nightfall, you can earn the aura again only next week after the weekly reset.
The Guide Games are live – but only with a ticket
In addition, the Guide Games Beta is live. This means that Clan members can now form a fireteam to guide solo Guardians through a Nightfall strike.
However, not all solo Guardians can participate. You need a Guide Games Beta Ticket, which you find in your post office – or not. Bungie does not specify the criteria for how these tickets were distributed or whether the distribution was completely random.
All clans, however, are eligible to act as guides in Guide Games.
The beta is set to last until September 26th. After that, Guide Games will be activated for all Guardians for the raid and the Nightfall strike.
To start a Guide Game, select the orange symbol next to the Nightfall strike. A power level of 240 is required. Click on it. You can now choose the mode, whether you are a seeker (single player) or a guide (clan). As a guide, the queue is currently one minute, as a single player about 4 minutes (this changes over time).
In other words, there are currently significantly more single players than available guide clans. Bungie expects this to balance out in the coming weeks as more Guardians join clans.
