A bug in World of Warcraft leaves herbalists groaning. But a hotfix is supposed to provide relief now.
The return to Argus, patch 7.3 for World of Warcraft, is probably one of the biggest content updates in the history of Blizzard’s MMORPG. There is something for almost all groups to do, whether crafting, reputation farming, pet battling, or toy collecting. Especially herbalists who wanted to earn a bit of extra gold have been farming the pet Felspike in recent days. It was supposedly able to spawn in plants throughout Argus and achieve a solid price in most auction houses. Particularly resourceful players farmed Astral Winds in Mac’Aree day and night.
But now the bad news: The pet couldn’t drop from Astral Winds at all. All those hours of work were for nothing.
The latest hotfix is supposed to provide relief now. It increases the drop rate of the pet. Furthermore, the plant can – really this time – be found in Astral Winds. Many players are dismayed that they have been farming in vain for the last few days.
Hotfix in WoW from 20.09.2017
We have the complete changes and patch notes of the current hotfix here for you.
Classes
Paladin
The trait Infusion of Light from the Netherlight Crucible is no longer activated by healing from Greater Blessing of Wisdom.
Non-Player Characters (NPCs)
Fiona’s Caravan (Eastern Plaguelands) should no longer mysteriously disappear on some servers.
High Commander Enaara should now be visible to all players during the quest “Recurring Madness” in Mac’Aree.
Player versus Player
Druid
Feral
Ravage is now correctly removed from targets that take damage from abilities or spells.
Professions
Herbalism
The drop rate for the Felspike has been increased. Additionally, it can now be found in Astral Winds.
Quests
The tomes of torment should now be more clearly visible during the quest “Lessons of Fire and Pain”.
Canceling “Talgath’s Forces” or “Flanking Maneuvers” after either quest has been completed should no longer prevent you from accepting the other again.
In America, the hotfix has already been live since yesterday (19.09.2017). Here, it will go live with the upcoming maintenance work in the night from Thursday (21.09.2017).
The PvP MMO Camelot Unchained continues to delight fans with weekly updates. Last Friday, major news was announced with the “once-a-month” update, which hints at a beta.
In our last post the developers of Camelot Unchained teased that they are “moving at full speed” towards the first beta. This time, the information is a bit more precise, even though no concrete date has been announced yet.
The “Sprint” to Beta 1
In a one-and-a-half-hour livestream, lead designer and co-founder of CityStateGames, Marc Jacobs, explains what the plan looks like for the upcoming weeks:
There were no releases from the “Thirty Day doc” last week, which is the monthly development plan, as something bigger is coming next week.
This will focus on the social aspects of Camelot Unchained, including both smaller and larger groups as well as guilds.
Work is also diligently being done on buildings, especially regarding their destruction.
The development is in a “sprint” status, which aims to complete the most important feature for the first beta as quickly as possible: Sieges.
To achieve this, every available resource will be allocated to the optimization of bow animations, scorpion shots, the crumbling of struck stone buildings, and more in the near future.
The development is expected to last “the next 4-6 weeks”.

To achieve all this on time, the entire development of the game will be restructured in the near future. According to Tyler Rockwell, the lead environment artist, weekend testing of updates will now be skipped. This has slowed down the development process, as too many decisions had to be made that were only tested at the end of a week.
This image will likely soon make way for fighting players!
Instead, the team is now working with daily and spontaneous tests for new implementations. They want to quickly and effectively manage everything they need to prepare for the first beta. Instead of constant testing with thousands of bots, soon backers will be able to play.
How about you? Are you looking forward to the beta, or has the long wait already worn you down? Will you participate in the tests or just watch how everything develops? Leave us a comment!
The new PUBG (PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds) update aims to fix bugs in the game. Various graphic bugs and grenades that explode too early are included. The patch notes will tell you what other bugs are being addressed.
Just a few days ago, the PUBG development team released the September update for the battle royale shooter. Now, another update is on the way, which will address various issues in the game, including graphic and gameplay bugs.
PUBG patch now on the testlive servers
Update: The patch is now live on the PUBG servers
Before a new update is deployed to the live servers of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, it is first tested on the test servers.
The patch notes reveal how many quality improvements are hidden in the new update. These were published by the developers on the PUBG Steam page and stated that the patch will come to the test servers today, on September 19.
Once the update is deemed “stable”, it will be released on the live servers. An exact date for this is currently unknown. Since September 20, 2017, you can download the update for the live servers.
Patchnotes, Early Access Week 26
These issues are to be resolved by the new update: grenades exploding too early, black boxes, and animation bugs when using healing or boosts in a vehicle.
User Interface UI/UX
The feature “Mark your current position on the map (default key “Insert”)” has been added to the map help overview on the world map
Other
You can no longer modify .ini files to assign multiple actions to one key.
Bug Fixes
A bug was fixed where the “Angled Foregrip” could be mounted to the Tommy Gun
A graphic bug was fixed that affected the locations of buildings
An animation bug was fixed that occurred when a character used healing or boosts while sitting in the driver’s seat.
A bug was fixed where reloading was not interrupted when the player fell into the knocked-out state during it.
A bug was fixed where a “uncooked” grenade could explode if the player fell into the knocked-out state while holding it.
A graphic bug was fixed that caused a black box texture to appear. This happened when looking through the sight while anti-aliasing settings were set to low or very low.
PUBG is a phenomenon and a huge success. Of course, others want a piece of the pie too. For example, the developers from Automaton Studio, who are working on an MMO shooter that will also offer a battle royale mode.
Automaton is working on a game that is still nameless and is an open-world shooter set in a 144 square kilometer world. Up to 1,000 players can roam in this vast world simultaneously. For the MMO aspect, the developers have spent the last two years developing a technology that enables this number of players. The shooter aims to distinguish itself from other genre representatives through its high player count. For this, the developers are utilizing an investment of 10 million dollars, which makes the title financially not a small project.
In addition to the high number of players in this unique and special MMO mode, it is also interesting that the online game will feature a battle royale mode where 400 players can act simultaneously. That is four times as many players as PUBG currently offers. This is intended to make the battles even more exciting and challenging. Your heroes can also improve over time and meet in social hubs— for example, to form groups.
A world full of tactical possibilities
The shooter aims to provide a diverse, dynamic, and lively world where wild animals roam and where you can also destroy the terrain. This simulated world allows for many tactical possibilities.
Players leave tracks that you can follow. Or players are detectable when they sneak through the bushes, causing the leaves to move. If you shoot an opponent, he will bleed, and you can follow this blood trail.
Dynamic weather also plays an important role, as you need to adjust your tactics, for example, during rain.
SpatialOS enables a large virtual world
The MMO shooter from Automaton uses the Cryengine to create particularly spectacular effects. The developers are also no strangers, as they have already released a successful game with the multiplayer horror game Dead by Daylight.
SpatialOS is also put to use. The system is specially designed for game development and cloud deployment, allowing the creation of gigantic virtual worlds that go beyond what a regular server can handle. And it is precisely on this world and the enormous number of players within it that the team wants to place great importance.
The game is set to be released in 2018. Playable content is planned for spring.
Andreas says: The developers make ambitious promises. What they ultimately deliver and whether it is actually fun remains to be seen. The MMO aspect sounds extremely interesting, but how it will ultimately be implemented is still the big question.
Whether the shooter will really manage to come close to PUBG or surpass the successful title will only be revealed over time. Many developers hope for similar success, but what ultimately comes of it remains to be seen. Therefore, I am already looking forward to the new online shooter – also because the developers of Dead by Daylight are behind it – but I remain cautious for now.
We reported on the impressive technology of SpatialOS here:
A new Nightfall in Destiny 2 is active. We will show you how to successfully navigate through the hordes of enemies in “Exodus Crash.”
The Nightfall strike in Destiny 2 is one of the toughest challenges in the game. Good teamwork and the correct consideration of mechanics are essential for overcoming the Nightfalls.
And the players agree: This week the strike is quite challenging. Many report that they have reached the boss fight and the timer has expired.
These are the modifiers this week
With these modifiers, you will be struggling in the endgame activity this week:
Friction – Health and shield regeneration are affected. Eliminating enemies can create Light sources. With these, you can regenerate health and charge your Super.
Time Loop Anomalies – Destroy anomalies to extend the timer.
After the Weekly Reset, only three modifiers were active, “Prism” has since been disabled.
The anomalies resemble the planetary resource from Nessus, the Data Nodes, and are scattered throughout the entire strike area except for the boss’s area. If anomalies are nearby, this will be indicated on the left side with the message “Anomaly detected”.
Friction is also a Nightfall modifier for the first time. Your health regeneration is affected. To generate life, you need to pick up Light sources dropped by defeated enemies. Do not collect these immediately, but only when you are surrounded by enemies and your health is critical. Regeneration starts immediately.
How to Master the Nightfall – The Phases
The first phase – Collecting Arc Charges
In the first phase, try to split up if possible. One takes their Sparrow to collect the Arc Charges (recognizable by the large light cones), another takes care of the smaller enemies, and the third searches the area for anomalies, but also helps with the enemies on the way forward.
Play carefully, and you should get through this phase quickly. The first phase ends with a tough Fallen enemy in front of a barrier. Once all enemies are eliminated, it will disappear. If you still have 14 minutes on the clock at this point, you are doing very well!
This is where it gets trickier. You must protect a platform until the counter reaches 100%. In between, you will be overwhelmed by all sorts of enemies. You should quickly take out the Arc Thieves, as they can explode.
At around 50% progress, two Servitors will spawn. Take them out quickly. Otherwise, focus on not leaving the platform and taking out enemies from a safe distance.
Phase Three – The Runner and the Path to the Boss
Again, you need to collect Arc Charges. Be especially careful of the Dreg patrolling the area. Otherwise, gather the charges and continue on your way. Before you deal with the Runner, you can board the Dreg on the left side. Do it! With them, you can swiftly take down the Runner.
Again, collect the anomalies in the following area to gain more time. They are particularly easy to spot in the darker rooms.
Prepare for a long fight. At regular intervals, the boss will disappear to throw waves of small enemies at you. And these enemies will become more numerous as the fight progresses.
Gain some breathing room through the healing Rift of the Warlock, a Hunter’s arrow, or a well-placed grenade. When the boss appears, unleash everything you have. Stay as much as possible in the center of the arena to take out the small enemies from a safe distance.
If you can’t manage this, focus your fire on one side, which you can retreat to if the center gets overwhelmed. Maintaining control over the small enemies is crucial in this fight.
You can also watch the entire Nightfall again on Nexxoss Gaming:

Note: Apparently, there is a cheese in the boss fight. The boss sometimes shows up on the outer walls, from which he can be shot down. The boss falls to his death, and the strike is over. However, we do not know how long this possibility will last and whether or when Bungie will fix the cheese.
Warning: The Prestige Nightfall is said to be bugged this week. According to community manager Cozmo, this is currently under investigation.
Have you completed the Nightfall already? How much time did you have left on the clock?

Finally, we can find Mewtwo in Germany. The special monster only appears at a few Pokémon GO gyms so far.
In recent weeks, EX-Raids (exclusive raids) have been tested in parts of Asia and America. In Europe, we haven’t benefited from this yet, but only looked enviously at the other trainers.
Now there has been a new wave of invitations to exclusive raids spreading across Europe. Trainers in Germany can now receive invitations to Mewtwo raids.
Mewtwo Raid in Germany
For a long time, trainers in Germany and other countries had to wait for this moment; finally, the first Mewtwo raids are coming to us. The EX-Raids are still being tested and are not available to “everyone”. Just a few hours ago (in the night of September 20, 2017), the first lucky trainers received an EX invitation at German Pokémon gyms.
More detailed information is currently being gathered. Based on initial experiences, these raids should only take place at sponsored gyms. In Germany, this means Unibail locations. We are collecting the German locations on Facebook and here in the comments to get a better overview.
On Reddit, trainers confirm that at least in England, raids are also taking place at non-sponsored gyms. There was a Pokémon GO event recently at those locations in England.
This seems to be the largest wave of EX-Raid tests that the developers have launched so far. Trainers in our Pokémon GO group on Facebook are actively posting their screenshots of Mewtwo invitations. This invitation was received by Patricia L.:
Due to this large test expansion, experts in the community believe that raids will soon be available at additional non-sponsored gyms. When that will be, we cannot currently say for sure.
Those who do not have an invitation yet should not be disappointed. Niantic may still change the frequency and locations of the raids during testing:
During the field test, we will regularly adjust the EX-Raid battles in terms of eligibility for participation, frequency, start time, location, and duration to make them engaging and rewarding but, most importantly, to provide more fun and incentives for trainers who frequently participate in raid battles.
Have you already received a raid invitation? Please let us know in the comments where they are taking place.
German Unibail Locations
According to initial reports (which we have gathered on Facebook), currently only sponsored stops are visited by these EX-Raid tests in Germany. Just a reminder: These are the Unibail locations in Germany:
The latest patch from Overwatch caused an annoying bug and may have cost some Mercy players the game. We reveal what happened.
Those who played Overwatch yesterday evening (19.09.2017) between 21:00 and 22:00 and selected Mercy, might have rubbed their eyes in disbelief during a match. Suddenly, in the middle of a game, the display for the ultimate was set to 0%.
The reason for this is a bug in the latest patch 1.15 (PC) or 2.19 (PS4 / Xbox One), which was rolled out last evening. This brought changes to existing skins. Both “Winged Victory Mercy” and “Oni Genji” were slightly revised – they received new voicelines when activating their ultimates.
Mercy “Winged Victory”
Super hot fix resets the ultimates
However, it seems there was a bug that led to serious issues. As Blizzard explained on Reddit, they completely deactivated the two skins. Players who equipped them automatically switched to the standard skin during a match.
Since this change was applied live during games, players switched their skins in the middle of an ongoing match, and the progress of their ultimates was completely reset.
Meanwhile, Blizzard is working on a fix to ensure that the skins function as intended. Presumably, a hotfix will be rolled out within the next few hours.
Interestingly, Blizzard has clearly developed Overwatch in such a way that such measures can be implemented live during an ongoing game without major issues. Normally, a small update is always needed for that, but these changes took effect right in the middle of the match – much to the dismay of some players, who may have lost their ultimate and possibly even a match because of it.
On Tuesday evening, a new patch 1.15/2.19 for Overwatch was released on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. What does the September update of Overwatch contain? Let’s take a look at the patch notes.
The Overwatch patch late Tuesday evening brought several changes that had been previewed and announced for some time. Most of the changes had been on the PTR since mid-August.
Today’s Overwatch update is version 1.15 for PC and 2.19 for PS4 and Xbox One.
We have previously published articles on each of the three major changes and new features of the patch. Currently, the patch notes are only available in English. We will provide the German patch notes once Blizzard has translated them.
The three main changes in the patch notes for 1.15/2.19 in Overwatch for PC, PS4, Xbox One
The new Overwatch map is set in Australia and is home to Junkrat and Roadhog. The map was introduced by Blizzard in a cinematic. Junkertown is an escort map – there will be a payload.

Mercy is no longer invulnerable during resurrection
Valkyrie (New Ultimate)
Valkyrie unleashes the full power of Mercy’s suit and enhances her and her abilities for 20 seconds
Caduceus: Mercy’s healing and damage boost now bounce to nearby allies and the range is increased
Caduceus Pistol: Has unlimited ammunition and projectiles fly faster
Guardian Angel: Increased range and movement speed
Resurrection: Cooldown is instantly finished when Valkyrie is activated and only takes 10 seconds after the resurrection
Mercy can fly in any direction at increased speed
Regeneration (Passive): Will not be interrupted when Mercy takes damage
The changes make Mercy’s resurrection a skill that affects only one target and not the entire fallen team anymore. Blizzard aims to prevent Mercy from letting her whole team die only to resurrect them. Her new ultimate “Valkyrie” allows Mercy to fly and transforms her into a kind of healing angel of death.
A rework that will significantly change Mercy and has been widely discussed in the community.
D.Va fires a salvo of small rockets that explode on impact and deal damage in a small radius. These can be fired while D.Va is using other abilities or her weapons
Defense Matrix
Defense Matrix now depletes the resource gauge twice as fast
Energy regeneration is now 12.5% per second (previously 10%)
Boosters
D.Va can now use her weapons while the ability is active
D.Va is intended to become somewhat weaker but still remain attractive to play. Therefore, Blizzard now allows her to shoot while flying. D.Va is supposed to continue to act defensively while being able to preemptively counter enemy attacks.
If you want to play multiple characters of the same class in Destiny 2, you need to be careful – they do not receive any progress in Power Level!
The race for the highest Power Level sometimes takes on bizarre forms. Players want to reach the level maximum as quickly as possible in a week, by creating secondary characters (e.g., two Titans). The equipment is then transferred to the “twink”, the second character, and all activities that grant loot up to the maximum level are replayed.
Bungie has put a stop to this approach – whether intentionally or not.
This is how Bungie prevents the level-up of twinks
Because anyone who creates a second Titan, Warlock, or Hunter does not receive any gear from engrams and weekly milestones that is above their current Power Level. Those who complete the Nightfall strike with their second Titan will face a nasty surprise, as the loot from Zavala will be below the currently equipped Power Level.
Specifically, my level progression stopped when I transferred all the gear from my first Titan to the fresh level-20 Titan.
Only the exotic weapon quests for the MIDA Multi-Tool, the Rat King, and the hand cannon Sturm grant rewards that are above the equipped Power Level. The raid and the Trials of the Nine are also still worthwhile. All weekly rewards and exotic engrams will not help you further.
The Trials of the Nine – a way to level up – unless a twink does it
Bungie eliminates a popular tactic for reaching the maximum level in a very short time. Only players who play all three character classes level normally.
But there are restrictions here as well. In Destiny 1 it was still possible to infuse gear across characters. This no longer works. You can no longer infuse a Titan helmet into a Hunter or Warlock helmet.
The intention behind this is clear: Bungie wants to slow down the level progression and prevent tactics that allow players to level up too quickly.
Bungie punishes players who favor individual classes
The flip side of the coin is that players who generally do not want to play certain character classes and like to use the same class twice or even three times are punished.
It can certainly be criticized that Bungie has not clearly communicated this situation and many players are confronted with this problem only after replaying the story.
Note: Whether Bungie chose this approach intentionally or if there is a bug is not known. There is no statement regarding this. It is also unknown whether this issue occurs for all players or only for some. If Bungie publishes relevant information, you will find out here.
What is your opinion on this topic? Do you find Bungie’s approach correct, if it is intentional? Let us know in the comments!

From now on, you can become a Revenant in the online role-playing game Skyforge (PS4 & PC). This new class is a strong warrior, who can take a lot of hits, wields an axe, and rips the life from his enemies to heal himself.
At Gamescom 2017, I was able to play the new Skyforge class of Revenant for the first time at the My.com booth. The huge brawler with the massive axe and the eerie armor looked extremely cool, but played rather clunky and slow. The other classes were much more fun. A few weeks later, the Revenant has finally officially launched.
Skyforge – The Revenant steps it up a notch
In the trailer for the Revenant, you can see the hulking axe-wielder in action. It seems he has gained some speed and power compared to my Gamescom experiences. While he still isn’t an agile jumping ninja, the 15th class in Skyforge is apparently no longer the dull character it was in the Gamescom demo.
Strong axe attacks remain the Revenant’s great strength. Each hit enhances the subsequent strike, so the third blow is buffed by a whopping 300 percent! Here are the following skills:
Siphon: You drain life energy from your opponent and then strike them down.
Smash Strike: A channeled attack that deals particularly high damage.
Dark Charge: Sends an illusion ahead and then manifests at its location. Additionally, you harm the enemies lingering there.
Decimate: An area attack with a short wind-up time. It becomes stronger with each subsequent hit.

The upcoming DLC for The Elder Scrolls Online – Clockwork City – will delight all Steampunk fans. Because you will get a world made of metal, clockwork, oil, and pipes! And the Morrowind story continues!
In the latest live stream from the studio, the developers of Zenimax present the newest DLC “Clockwork City” for The Elder Scrolls Online. Here, the developers wandered for an hour through the exotic Steampunk world of the eponymous Clockwork City.
Steampunk describes a world where there is futuristic technology, but it is powered mechanically and by steam. The idea is somewhat like a Victorian era, but infused with adventurous technology that accomplishes the astonishing.
The Elder Scrolls Online – Schrödinger’s Clockwork City
The Clockwork City is a curious place that serves as a miniature representation of the ESO world. The city was built by the living god Sotha Sil and exists both outside of Tamriel and within it. So it’s somewhat of a “Schrödinger’s paradox”.
But regardless of whether it is about quantum physics or magic (or both), the Clockwork City is a real place that can be visited in the next ESO DLC. There, you will encounter a crazy new region that is about as large as Wrothgar from the popular Orsinium DLC.
The Elder Scrolls Online – Clockwork City – “Everything is made of metal here!”
Anyone who has even a little interest in Steampunk will be in for a treat in Clockwork City. Because the entire region is made of metal! Just everything, even the trees have steel leaves, and the creatures are all clockwork constructs – even mice are mechanical!
The lakes and rivers are filled with oil, and gears, cranks, and cylinders rattle everywhere in the buildings. Mechanical servants of Sotha Sil roam around, and due to various malfunctions, they cause us a lot of trouble.
Additionally, there is the central city in the Clockwork City: the Brass Fortress. In it reside the cultists of Sotha Sil, who emulate their idol and even replace parts of their bodies with mechanical limbs.
The Elder Scrolls Online – Steampunk Mounts, Pets, Cool Armors and Transmutation System
In addition to the many quests in the new region, the continuation of the story from Morrowind, and the previously unseen new raid, there is plenty of fresh stuff for you in Clockwork City. The highlight is the new armors which come in heavy, medium, and light categories.
Even the light armor shown in the stream looked simply awesome. Additionally, there is a mechanical dragonfly that every player receives upon entering the Clockwork City. As a new mount, there is a six-legged Nix-Ox construct that scurries around quickly.

Also cool: The DLC finally has a feature that allows you to redistribute your weapon attributes. You can also buy a cool house in the Clockwork City, complete with gears and Steampunk features!
The DLC Clockwork City will be – like all DLCs – free for all ESO Plus subscribers as long as the subscription is active. On the other hand, you can buy the DLC from the Crown Store for real money after the release. When the DLC will be released is still unclear, but it is expected to come in the fourth quarter, so it will be released sometime in 2017.
On the ESO test server, you should already be able to play Clockwork City. The final release should occur soon.
Apparently “afk” this player gets the chicken dinner in PUBG (PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds). While his character is lying in the bathtub, the rest fights outside for survival.
How much luck can a single person actually have? Positioning oneself in PUBG in such a way that one can simply lie around while the other guys shoot each other is no great feat. However, doing it afk and ultimately leaving as a winner requires an incredible amount of luck.
For me, the video of the match is a reason to question all my tactics and skills. Do I have better chances of winning in PUBG if I don’t touch my keyboard and just lean back?
Into the bathtub with the frying pan and off to the chicken dinner
In the battle royale hit, it counts: “Whoever is last alive wins.” But so that not everyone sets up camp in the next wooden hut and watches all nine seasons of “The Campers”, the play area shrinks every few minutes. Anyone outside the play area takes damage.
The goal is to stay within this play area, which regularly shrinks to a random point on the map. The player Mysterion157 was in this area and was then called to dinner. Apparently, that’s no reason for him not to leave as a winner from the match.
This is how it happened: In the middle of a match, Mysterion157 was called to dinner and had to leave the PC. He laid down with his character in a bathtub and started a video recording of the game. After all, he wanted to know what place he exits the game. He was lying in the east of the map in a small bathroom. Here you can see the video:

Before he left, he opened the map and subsequently left his character to fate. He probably didn’t think that the spot in the bathtub would help him win.
During the time Mysterion157 was afk, the other 33 players were gradually killed. By the time the blue circle came closer and finally reached the afk player, his health bar did go down, but he still survived longer than the competition.
Somehow it is both funny and sad that he could win with this “tactic”. What do you think?

In Hearthstone , the announced nerfs are now live. To make the transition less harsh, everyone receives 100 gold as a gift.
About two weeks ago, the developers at Blizzard revealed how they plan to regain control of the balance in Hearthstone. The Druid had become completely out of control and was considered nearly unbeatable. Therefore, there have been several changes to the most popular Druid cards. However, Murlocs, Shamans, and Warriors also had to face some adjustments.
Here are the changes in detail:
Innervate from the Druid now grants only 1 additional mana for this turn instead of 2 mana. Thus, Innervate is effectively only a coin.
Plague of Murlocs from Druids now has a mana cost increase from 5 to 6. This is intended to slow down Druids a bit. Together with the change to Innervate, casting Plague of Murlocs will become more significant.
The Fiery War Axe of the Warrior is raised from 2 mana costs to 3 mana costs. This means it can no longer be played as early and resembles a Hunter’s Bow – just without additional card text.
Shamans have to deal with a nerf to Hex. The mana cost increases from 3 to 4. This makes the spell much more similar to the Mage’s Polymorph.
A final nerf affects all Murloc fans. The effect of the Murloc Leader is changed. In the future, the Murloc Leader will grant only +2 attack to all other friendly Murlocs instead of +2/+1.
Pirate Day gives 100 gold in Hearthstone
To ease the burden of these changes a little, there is currently a mini-event in Hearthstone – Pirates Day. This is also celebrated in Hearthstone and simply grants you 100 gold coins. With this, you can buy a card pack in the shop or already have a large part of the costs for the next arena round together.

Then you can visit Cayde-6 in the Tower Hangar and buy several treasure maps from him for 4800 Glimmer each.
This time you can search and loot treasures on the Saturn moon Titan. In the hides, there can be all sorts of different items, from mods and badges to blue and legendary items, and even exotic engrams! Sometimes there are also strange things like journal entries that you can turn in at Cayde-6.
Locations of the treasures on Titan
Once you have purchased a treasure map, the treasure will be shown to you on the Titan map with a pick symbol. This is what the symbols look like: You cannot mark the locations – that means you only see the approximate location. You will have to search for it on-site yourself.
On Titan, two treasures are hidden in the Solarium, two are in the Rig, and one is on the bridge between the Rig and the Siren’s Watch.
Venero TV shows you the exact locations in the video:

The first players can already start the preload for FIFA 18. Some already have full access.
Every year countless players try to get their hands on the annual FIFA installment as early as possible. After all, every hour counts to gain advantages in Ultimate Team mode or in Pro Clubs. Those who start later are immediately at a disadvantage.
While there are no options to begin before the official release date with pre-orders in the console stores or via Origin, many players try their luck with their trusted retailers. Perhaps a dealer will release a “FIFA 18” disc early, granting the hoped-for early access.
As several users are reporting on the FIFA Reddit forum, some players already have full access to FIFA 18. That is, they already have a copy and can play the new football simulation unlimited. Some are even said to have showcased it in a livestream.
Note: Spoilers ahead!
Gameplay material for FIFA 18 FUT
The reddit user TheAtlasLion9 recorded videos from “FIFA 18” livestreams and uploaded them to YouTube a few hours ago. Here you can see a video showing the start in FUT 18. The game is played on PlayStation:

The video looks “real.” It doesn’t appear to be fake. In the comments, users write that this is definitely real footage from FIFA 18. The question is: How can it be that some users can play already?
It is suspected that these players got early access to a disc version of FIFA 18. That’s the only explanation. This clip, showing FIFA 18 on Xbox, is also making the rounds:

The official release of FIFA 18 is actually set for September 29 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. A stripped-down version will also be released on PS3, Xbox 360, and Nintendo Switch. Those who pre-order certain editions can start with FIFA 18 on September 26. And those using the paid online services EA Access or Origin Access will get a 10-hour trial version of FIFA 18 starting September 21. This might explain why the servers are already online.
If you are not lucky enough to get an early disc of FIFA 18, you will have to keep an eye on one of these dates for your FIFA 18 start.
Preload phase for FIFA 18 begins
Since September 18, reports have increased that FIFA 18 can be downloaded from the stores. The preload has started. That is, some players can now download the necessary game data to be ready to go at launch.
Currently, it is unclear in which regions the preload is already available. Most reports of a pre-download on PS4 come from North America. The preload option is likely going live in different regions of the world gradually.
On Xbox, the preload is also reportedly already available for some players. According to user reports, it will start on PC via Origin on September 22.
The download is said to be around 40 GB.
Keep in mind that these are not official statements from EA Sports and should be taken with caution. However, the icons you can play in FUT 18 are officially confirmed. These are all the ratings of the icons in FIFA 18!

The last Open Beta date for MU Legend has been postponed, and now there is a guaranteed date. Don’t make any plans for early November!
Originally, the Open Beta of the action RPG “MU Legend” was supposed to start in September. But just before the launch, there was a press release explaining: Hey, we still need a bit more time. Sorry, but we want to offer you a good game.
Now publisher Webzen confirms the official start date for the open beta in early November!
MU Legend OBT – Starting in November
The wait will soon be over: In a press release from Webzen, the developer announces: The open beta test of the global version of MU Legend will start on November 7, 2017.
Since the Open Beta starts as a “soft launch” and no further wipe will occur, this is basically the unofficial start of MU Legend here with us. Tickets for the hype train can be redeemed at Schuhmann.
Developers Invite for Stress Test
To optimize the gaming experience, the developers are collecting more data. To ensure that this happens before the start of the Open Beta, a stress test has been scheduled. Webzen’s COO Dennis Czybulka states, “We cannot adequately test all worst-case scenarios in the lab, so we need our fans’ support to push our server to the breaking point.“
This stress test is set to take place on September 23, and you are invited to participate.

On the new website for MU Legend, you can now download the current client. The download is already active, so that players with slower connections can be ready for the stress test (thanks to Bodicore and Alex from Webzen in the comments)
Path of Fire, the new addon for Guild Wars 2, showcases an epic launch trailer that reveals what to expect in the expansion: In addition to an exciting story, there are mounts, new regions, and elite specializations with skills.
Path of Fire is the second major expansion for Guild Wars 2, launching on September 22, 2017. However, it has been unusually quiet around the addon. So quiet that our editor Schuhmann wrote an article on the topic: “Is Guild Wars 2 still relevant as a major title?“.
But slowly it seems that the publisher NCSoft is getting into gear, as the new launch trailer for Path of Fire is impressive!
The official launch trailer does not hold back on spectacular effects and scenes. You will see lots of new mounts, especially the teleporting jackal.
You can also admire the new villain Balthazar and the cool Charr warrior Rytlock. The new elite specializations and their skills are also well represented.
Yarrr! Today is Pirate Day in World of Warcraft – and with a new toy!
Once a year, all pirates gather in Azeroth to let their souls dangle, drink rum in even larger quantities than usual, and splash around with rubber ducks in the sea – on Pirate Day! Only today, on September 19, players can travel to Booty Bay in Stranglethorn Vale to enjoy the festivities with the local pirates.
Captain DeMeza is waiting in Booty Bay for anyone wanting to play buccaneer for a day, offering not only rum but also a little hummingbird for your shoulder. While it’s not a real parrot, let’s not be too picky.
In 2017, there is, for the first time, a new toy from Edward Techt – you can find him south of Booty Bay on the beach. Those who have completed the achievement “Set Sail, Admiral!” can buy the Pirate Flag as a new toy from Edward.
For the achievement, you must have at least a friendly reputation with the Bloodsail Buccaneers – and that’s not very easy. You need to set Booty Bay to “at war” (can be done in the reputation window) and kill goblins until the pirates start to like you. This can take days, if not weeks, depending on what the current reputation status with the pirates looks like (typically deep red “Hated”).
If you do not yet have the required reputation with the Bloodsail Buccaneers, you need to hurry. Because Pirate Day ends tomorrow, on September 20, 2017, at 10:00 AM. Only those who are friendly by then can secure the toy.
Cortyn says: I knew that farming the title “the Insane” would pay off someday – albeit nearly 10 years later. I do feel a little sorry for the players who are now desperately trying to go from Hated to Friendly in one evening. It’s probably best not to try to quest in Stranglethorn Vale today, as most NPCs will be permanently dead.
