For Honor: Trophäen – Das ist die Trophy-List, Achievements

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time 3 minutes

In For Honor, the trophies and achievements are known. Here is a list of the trophies in English.

For years, they have been part of every game: The trophies (PS4) and achievements (Xbox One). These unlockable successes are identical on the consoles – only the platinum trophy is PlayStation exclusive and Xbox relies on Gamerscore instead of trophies.

Tanzia: Das MMORPG ohne andere Spieler

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

It can be admitted: there are situations where other players in MMORPGs are simply annoying. Therefore, Tanzia does not even offer the option to play with others.

So, what kind of game is Tanzia? Actually, it is a single-player role-playing game, but one that incorporates many MMO features. If Tanzia had an online mode and multiplayer, it would be a classic MMORPG.

Essentially, single-player role-playing games and MMOs differ in many areas. For example, in fights. In an MMO, you lure enemies to specific spots to tactically defeat them. In a single-player RPG, you more often deal with enemies on the spot, as many confrontations simply arise from the situation.

Tanza Fight 1
A single-player RPG with MMO gameplay

While Tanzia offers a single-player experience, as you explore a world on your own, do not encounter other players, and feel like the only true hero of the world through the quests, it still plays like an MMORPG.

It features a classic MMO-like hotbar combat with many skills; you must discover the weaknesses of enemies and exploit them, collect many resources to craft your own items, and you are constantly on the lookout for better gear. Additionally, there are battles against hordes of enemies.

Not Skyrim but also not WoW

Those who usually play MMORPGs alone will surely feel right at home in Tanzia. However, those who value experiencing adventures with other players, engaging in group content, repeating quests, and competing in PvP with fellow players are likely in the wrong place with Tanzia. Players who expect something like Skyrim or The Witcher 3, a very story-driven game that emphasizes an engaging narrative structure and less grinding, are also mistaken.

Tanzia is set to be released later this year, but an exact release date is currently not known. It features colorful comic graphics.

Andreas says:

An MMORPG without the MMO. The question is whether MMO mechanics really make sense in a single-player RPG. Do I really want to grind constantly when I can’t measure my level against anyone else? Do I really need hotbar combat when a more action-oriented approach could function without lag and make confrontations much more intense? Sure, the game could work well, but it could also completely miss the mark with the idea.

Age of Wushu 2 will not be what you think, but a sandbox title

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 2 minutes

Age of Wushu 2 will differ significantly from its predecessor. It is headed towards a sandbox and survival direction.

Age of Wushu, also known as Aue of Wulin or Age of Kung Fu, is an action MMORPG released in 2013 by the Chinese developer Snail Games, heavily influenced by Wuxia, meaning a lot of Eastern elements.

Knowing this, one might think they already know the successor “Age of Wushu 2”. Also an Asia MMORPG, a lot of theme park, a lot of Asian culture, one might think. But Age of Wushu 2 will differ significantly from its predecessor, as the producer reveals in an interview. Because it is going in a different direction.

wushuscreen

Age of Wushu 2 is set to become a sandbox survival game that gives players much more freedom. It will be possible to attach up to 10 sky lanterns to fly for a short time and take out a target in an innovative way. Players will start in the city of Suzhou and will have to find their own path from there.

Eastern survival game is expected to differ greatly from western survival games

The producer says: In western survival titles, it is mostly about building weapons to become stronger. In Age of Wushu 2, it will follow the Wuxia tradition: It is more important to refine the spirit and body.

In the West, the focus is more on resource gathering, while in Age of Wushu 2, social interaction with others will be more prominent. Instead of mining ore oneself, it will be more important to build a good relationship with the NPC who owns the mine. Players should be able to pay protection money and demand protection money.

In combat, it will be important to study the opponent closely to predict their actions and find suitable reactions.

Ageofwushuscreen

The producer does not believe that Asian players will experience culture shock with so much freedom. They are used to such games by now, thanks to the success of Minecraft.

A release date is not known. There is also no information about beta dates.

Destiny: How to play Guardian Super Bowl!

In the MMO shooter Destiny, we look at the videos of the week. Bungie delivers three videos, which we complement with works from our community.

Last night, the Super Bowl took place – for many, the most important sporting event in the world. Even here at home, the final of the American NFL captivated numerous fans. Ultimately, the New England Patriots defeated the Atlanta Falcons.

Fair enough – some of you might be thinking – but what does that have to do with Destiny? Even in Bungie’s MMO shooter, a “Super Bowl” took place a few days ago, called the “Titan Bowl”. This is a fan-made video by Rezocast that earned this week’s title “Video of the Week”. Really well done: the New Monarchy faces off against the Future War Cult. Enjoy!

Content of Season 4 in SMITE

After the SMITE World Championship took place last month, the game is now directly entering Season 4 of the God MOBA without a break. To kick this off, the developers have released a major patch that brings numerous changes to gods, maps, and items. Let’s take a look at the most important adjustments.

Especially the main map “Conquest” is getting new monsters and buffs.

  • Now there are 2 camps of Oracle Harpies – if one team takes out both Harpy camps, they get unrestricted vision of the Gold Fury for 90 seconds – when both camps go to different teams, nothing happens.
  • Similarly, the Portal Demon works – also a new camp. If you kill it, your team gets a portal directly from the fountain to the Fire Giant for 1 minute.

The two new creatures are thus tactical advantages that can quickly lead to further benefits if the opposing team does not react skillfully.

The list of changes to the gods is too long to go through them all individually. Particularly noteworthy are the changes to Hel, whose healing has been altered. Instead of healing all allies instantly, they now receive a HOT over 6 seconds. Her “skill shots” are now also more important as they no longer explode on first contact but heal or damage all affected targets (depending on her form).

Smite Hel

Serqet’s passive ability is now even more powerful, allowing her to instantly destroy 25% of a god’s maximum health with 3 consumed poisons. With 2 poisons, it is still 15%.

Smite: How Items Change with Season 4

There are numerous revisions for the items. Almost all items have new costs, and even two new categories have been introduced. Rituals count as expensive endgame consumables and grant one-time effects, such as a teleport in combat or a 25% damage bonus. Chalices, on the other hand, are suitable for the start of the game and work like a stack of potions – they automatically refill once you teleport back to the fountain.

Smite Goddess The Morrigan

Aside from that, there are also numerous small changes that have been long requested by the players. The “T” screen is back and provides an overview of the currently best-performing players. Additionally, there is a small “combat log” there that allows you to track the last seconds of the game to see what you died from. Finally, players can now collect followers beyond rank 10, which adds “stars” to the god on the loading screen – a purely prestige matter.

All changes to items and gods can be found in detailed form in our sources.

We have also introduced the latest goddess “The Morrigan”.

For Honor: Kein Test, kein Review vor Release – Ubisoft dreht den Hahn zu

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time < 1 minutes

It will take a while until the first tests for For Honor are released.

In the gaming industry, it is common for large gaming sites to receive early access to the full version of an upcoming title. This allows them to extensively test the new game and write a review that can help potential customers in their purchasing decision.

However, this will not be the case for For Honor. According to Hardcoregamer, Ubisoft sent a statement to media partners stating that the final build of For Honor will not be available until launch.

The reason given is the open beta, which runs from February 9 to 12 and ties up the servers.

Reviewers can download the game earlier, but they must wait to start testing until the servers go live. There will not be dedicated servers set up specifically for the press. After all, the online aspect plays an important role, which should be conducted under real conditions.

Offline testing of the campaign is also not possible, as For Honor requires a permanent internet connection.

In this article, we harmonize with all information about the open beta and highlights from the last testing phases leading up to the upcoming beta.

In For Honor, fans report: The open beta can be downloaded!

There are still three days until the start of the open beta of For Honor, but you can already download the game files to your hard drive. This is at least what numerous users on reddit are reporting.

For Honor Open Beta – Pre-Download on PS4, Xbox One and PC

Go to Uplay and find the “Free Games” section, where you should see an open beta for For Honor. Add it to your library and start the preload. The download size is 18.86 GB.

There are also reports that the beta is available for pre-download on PS4 and Xbox One. I just checked it on PS4, and yes, there is a beta in the PlayStation Store that was released on February 6 and is available until February 12.

If you have already downloaded the closed beta and installed the updates from the last few days, you don’t need to download anything else. At launch on February 9, this application should start the open beta.

Note: Some users report that the beta does not appear in Uplay. However, a restart helps with this.

Gloria Victis: Combat should look good, feel good – controls are being revised

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

The developers of the indie MMORPG Gloria Victis are currently revamping the hero’s controls to ensure that the battles feel really good.

Since a developer from the single-player RPG The Witcher 3 is currently working on the MMORPG Gloria Victis and is responsible for the animations, the hero’s controls should match the fluid and spectacular movements. Therefore, the team is currently revising the controls. They want the battles to not only look good thanks to the new animations but also feel good.

Gloria Victis
New animations require new controls

The new animations are currently about 75 percent complete. It should be noted that there must be specific movements for each weapon, detailing how the hero performs them. The more animations the character can execute, the more convincing it appears in the game.

The new animations will initially be implemented only for the player character. Once it has all the movement sequences and they work well, the NPCs and opponents will be adapted accordingly.

Fights will be expanded

Gloria Victis Combat

The new behavior due to the animations brings a new control system. The so-called character controller needs to be adjusted. This simultaneously allows for new combat mechanics to be introduced, for example, that strong attacks can interrupt a strike or that blocking functions more effectively.

All of this must be synchronized to prevent lag, which can have fatal consequences, especially in PvP. The new controls and new animations are intended to make the gameplay smoother.

This update is one of the most extensive that the MMORPG Gloria Victis has experienced so far. The game is currently in an early access phase.

Ghost Recon Wildlands: Conclusion at the end of the beta – What is the game like?

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 5 minutes

We tested the Ghost Recon Wildlands beta and show you how we liked it.

Today, the closed beta phase of Ghost Recon Wildlands ended. Since Friday, players could immerse themselves in the world of Ubisoft’s new tactical shooter and get a first impression of the game and gameplay. The overall mood of the game was well-received by many testers; however, there is still much work to be done to satisfy the players.

During the closed beta, severe performance issues and bugs occurred. Some gameplay aspects were criticized as well. But does that make the entire game bad?

Co-op fun despite bugs

The beta of Ghost Recon Wildlands gave many players the opportunity for the first time to try out features such as the CharacterSmith and the GunSmith. You start the game with the visual customization of the Ghost in the CharacterSmith. There, players find many options to uniquely design their character by combining hairstyles, beards, accessories, scars, and clothing.

Ghost Recon Character Profile

After character creation, you can team up with up to three other friends in cooperative mode. Your friends are clearly marked in the interface and on the minimap, so you won’t lose sight of each other. This is a significant advantage, as the world of Ghost Recon Wildlands is huge.

Vehicles

Civilians drive vehicles on the roads that you can “acquire.” While you may not necessarily steal a Lamborghini or a motorcycle, the vehicles have room for your entire team. This allows teammates to handle planning while one person in your team takes on the driving role. The selection of vehicles is decent and ranges from SUVs to airplanes and helicopters to tractors or ambulances.

Ghost Recon Wildlands Hummer Gatling

Missions and Skills

You can use the vehicles to reach the mission deployment locations. In the active area of the closed beta, players could complete a few quests from the main story and had a selection of various side missions. On the way to the main missions, you frequently passed by side missions. This way, most optional tasks could be completed conveniently and without major detours.

Ghost Recon Wildlands

The first story missions available in the closed beta gave an impression of how darker the story of this game is. Through notes and recordings found along the way to the quests, players gain interesting additional information about the people they encounter in Bolivia. The voice actors of the dialogues are particularly authentic. This can give you chills as you hear highly detailed recordings of the “enemies,” providing insight into the disturbed psyches of these individuals.

While main missions provide you with experience points and weapons, side missions mainly yield materials that you can use to skill. By skilling abilities, you specialize your Ghost in different areas. In the early levels, you can choose between enhanced drones with longer battery life, more stable aiming, or pain suppression to take less damage.

In various camps on the map, you can find weapon upgrades such as sights. To obtain these improvements, enemies must be defeated first. This feature stood out positively to me, as you can “earn” the modifications instead of simply receiving them as rewards for leveling up.

While these missions often resembled each other, this may change when multiple areas are published in the full game.

World

Ghost Recon Wildlands View Parachute

During the closed beta, a limited area was available for exploration. If you crossed the borders of this area, a countdown began whose expiration had deadly consequences. Those traveling by helicopter or airplane could see slightly beyond the limited test phase area. In the distance, deserts and mountains beckoned exploration.

Ghost Recon Wildlands Parachute 2

Although the beta area was limited and only a small part of the large map, it left a significant and expansive impression.

The paths between the various missions were not too short and were mostly connected by a drive or a flight, making the mission objectives easily accessible. However, the developers should still make improvements to the handling of vehicles and aircraft. Because vehicles are used so frequently, the controls need further refinement as they currently feel vague.

Weapons

The weapon system of Ghost Recon Wildlands already works well in the beta. A Ghost carries two primary and one secondary weapon. Depending on the situation, you can comfortably equip many weapons with silencers to silently take out enemies.

You unlock new weapons as you progress in the game. One of the first new weapons in the beta was a sniper rifle that my team tested and found to be “good.”

Ghost Recon Wildlands Weapon Title

Wildlands has a bullet drop mechanic that makes hitting distant targets more challenging. The further away an enemy is, the higher you need to aim above them to hit. This makes sniper kills more realistic, but also more difficult. However, when you do hit an enemy standing on a watchtower hundreds of meters away, the joy is all the greater.

Combat with assault rifles was not too easy either. “Adventure continuous fire” won’t get you far in Wildlands, as aiming requires skill. Overall, playing with the different weapon types was a lot of fun.

During the beta, players had access to assault rifles, sniper rifles, light machine guns, shotguns, and pistols. With the GunSmith, weapons could be customized, for example, by equipping different optics. While there was not a large selection available during the testing phase, the complete game is supposed to offer over 10,000 customization options.

Conclusion on the Ghost Recon Wildlands Beta

The closed beta of Ghost Recon Wildlands showed that the game has a lot of potential. However, many functions need to be improved before the game releases.

This includes vehicle control, AI behavior, and rewards for completing missions stealthily. This feedback was also frequently seen on Reddit and other social channels. Fans even go so far as to demand a later release to give developers more time to resolve the issues.

Ghost Recon Release Delay

Despite these criticisms, I had a lot of fun during the beta phase. If they handle the feedback from fans correctly and tweak a few things, Ghost Recon Wildlands has a bright future ahead. However, whether a large Day 1 patch will be enough to solve the problems is questionable. The release is already set for March 7, 2017. A delayed release would provide more time for fixing issues, but whether that is still possible at this point is uncertain.

Ghost Recon Wildlands is an exciting co-op tactical shooter that still has its rough edges. If the community feedback is taken seriously, we can expect a strong title in the co-op shooter genre.

As McCree, the player ForTheHorde chose a particularly bad time for his “High Noon”. Hardly is the ultimate ready, all enemies have already died before he can fire. But instead of letting the shots go to waste, McCree continues to wait – and wait and wait. In fact, a saving Mercy comes around the corner, serving him the “Play of the Game” on a silver platter.

Our last entry is more amusing than an actual Play of the Game. Almost everyone has been shot by a Hanzo and had no idea where the arrow came from. However, the player RobotNinja lives up to his name and shoots his enemy without even looking in his direction. The probably funniest use of a scatter arrow in a long time. Was that intentional or a coincidence? We may never find out.

Conan Exiles: Stronger Equipment? Here’s how to make steel bars

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 3 minutes

Steel is a must for every barbarian in Conan Exiles. But how do you get the coveted bars of this precious metal? How do you craft stronger equipment? Here you will find out!

“You must unravel the secret of steel!”, advises Conan’s father in the legendary first barbarian film with Arnold Schwarzenegger to his son. Those who thought back then: “Pff, how hard can that be? It’s just steel!”, can now try in the survival MMO Conan Exiles whether they can unveil the secret of steel and craft steel bars for their weapons.

In the beginning was iron

However, steel is not exactly easy to obtain, and even if you know how to produce the precious metal, you need tons of materials before you hold shiny steel bars in your hands. But one step at a time.

If you want steel, you first need iron. You can find this in “iron stones”, which sometimes come out of regular rocks. However, this meager yield is never enough for your later needs, so you unfortunately have to climb up to higher mountain regions.

Conan Exiles Craftsman

Because there you will find pure iron deposits as well as coal (useful as fuel during the later smelting). But beware, there are some wild animals lurking up there, and the valuable iron is, as experience shows, happily mined by all players on the server. If your PvP option is on, you should proceed carefully or form a mining and protection community with other players.

Then throw the iron ore as well as wood or coal into the furnace, and two iron stones will produce one iron bar.

The riddle of steel lies in the trees

If you want to make steel from iron, you need another resource called steel fire. You obtain this from tar and sulfur.

Sulfur can be found in small quantities in caves and in larger numbers in the great sulfur pit in the northwest. However, some dangerous opponents are also lurking there, so be careful. Sulfur itself is mined with the pickaxe from sulfur stalagmites.

Up in the northwest, there’s sulfur.

Tar is more complicated to obtain. It is actually a byproduct of tanning hides from bark. Bark is easy to obtain if you know how. To gather bark, you simply have to hit a tree with the pick instead of the axe; then you get the bark.

From two pieces of tar and sulfur, you can produce the coveted “steel fire” in the “fire bowl cauldron”. This, in turn, results in one steel bar with 5 (!) iron bars. So you should produce a good amount of iron in advance if you want to stock up on steel. Steel, in turn, is used for strong tier-3 building parts and weapons with which you can effectively destroy such buildings.

Destiny: Skelettschlüssel und SIVA-Fragmente verschwinden? Das sagt Bungie

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time 2 minutes

In the MMO shooter Destiny, skeleton keys and SIVA key fragments cause problems.

The skeleton keys themselves are a great feature and were received positively by the community at the launch of “Rise of Iron” as meaningful additions. With them, you don’t have to play the same strike over and over again in hopes that the boss will finally drop the coveted strike-exclusive item.

Instead, you can play the Nightfall strike and a colorful selection of SIVA strikes, earning skeleton keys and then using them in the desired strike to access the exclusive objects. Which strike-exclusive items are available in which strike, you can read here.

Skeleton Keys and SIVA Key Fragments Disappear

There have been ongoing issues with the skeleton keys throughout the months of RoI. Currently, Bungie is investigating user reports that skeleton keys and SIVA key fragments are suddenly disappearing from character inventory.

This annoyance tends to occur more frequently when the maximum number of skeleton keys (5) or SIVA key fragments (200) is reached. Additionally, the items can disappear when logging out, switching characters, quitting the game, or turning off the console after not picking up an engram (that contains the key) in the game.

As a temporary solution, Bungie suggests the following:

  • Make sure you always have enough inventory space for the items
  • and collect the white engrams that enemies drop (which contain the keys)

This is not the first skeleton key problem that guardians and Bungie have had to deal with. Right after the launch of RoI, skeleton keys didn’t drop at all, then they disappeared from the post office and were permanently deleted. There was also recurring criticism that Bungie was too stingy with the keys. For the “The Dawning” event, the drop rate was increased, and Nightfall became a guaranteed source for skeleton keys.

In this article, we will look at all weapons that are only available in strikes. Which ones are worthwhile?

Hearthstone: Leak? New adventure “Lost Secrets of Un’Goro”

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

The next Hearthstone expansion leads to Un’Goro! At least, this has been revealed by a possible leak.

Hearthstone Lost Secrets Minella

At Blizzard, there seems to have been another new leak pointing to the next Hearthstone expansion. A clever user checked the resumes of some voice actors who have worked with Blizzard multiple times. When looking at the voice actress Lani Minella, they found that she apparently voices some lines in the game Hearthstone: Lost Secrets of Un’Goro. The hype train is already in full swing, as an expansion with this name does not yet exist.

In the corresponding expansion, Minella voices lines for the characters “Golakka Crawler”, “Pteradactyl”, “Anklesaur”, “Hydra”, and “Brontosaurus” – all related creatures that actually exist in the crater of Un’Goro.

The next expansion for Hearthstone is expected around April – Blizzard plans to release two adventures and one “card expansion” per year.

Although the source seems credible, it remains to be seen whether the leak is confirmed.

In terms of storyline, the Un’Goro crater has much more to offer than meets the eye. The Un’Goro crater is not only a wild jungle with giant dinosaurs and largely untouched nature but also a testing ground for the Titans, who have experimented here on a smaller scale on how to develop the species of Azeroth. There are still titanic artifacts and structures there that researchers have not yet fully uncovered – so there are plenty of “Lost Secrets” to be found.

Hearthstone Ungoro Maximillian of Northshire
In Un’Goro, there are also many silly things – like Maximillian of Northshire.

Aside from that, Un’Goro in World of Warcraft is a huge homage to Nintendo – monkeys leave crates behind and the two brothers “Mario and Luigi” (with slightly altered names) are causing havoc there.

The Division: The PvE Aspect in “Last Stand” – Are You Satisfied with It?

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time 2 minutes

The “Last Stand” mode in The Division is largely about PvE. Massive wants to know about your experiences with it.

The PC agents can now enjoy themselves on the public test servers and try out the new PvP mode “Last Stand.” However, this mode is actually not that “PvP” as many agents thought. The PvE, meaning the fight against NPCs, plays an important role if you want to successfully complete the mode.

Massive has now launched a survey about the “Last Stand” mode. They want to know how your PvE experience on the PTS has been so far.

The PvE in the PvP mode

In “Last Stand,” the primary focus is on capturing zones and defending against the other team. However, there are not only other players on the map but also PvE enemies.

division-last-stand-agenten

These are a source for the currency SHD-Tech. With it, you can gain tactical boosts and set up turret fortifications at the zones. To take advantage of these benefits, you need to constantly collect SHD-Tech – you must continuously defeat NPCs. Read detailed information about the “Last Stand” mode here.

In the survey, Massive now wants to know:

  • Is the role of PvE in Last Stand understandable?
  • How crucial is PvE for gameplay?
  • Is the effort for tactical boosts worthwhile?
  • Is the difficulty of the PvE enemies appropriate?
  • Is the PvE in Last Stand fun?

It will likely take a few more weeks before agents on PS4 and Xbox One can access the “Last Stand” mode. Briefly, the community developer Yannick Banchereau mentioned February 28 as the release date, before this premature information was removed.

ESO Housing List: Races, Prices and Locations with Homestead

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time < 1 minutes

The Elder Scrolls Online brings housing into the game with the update “Homestead”, you can finally buy your own houses. The huts are located in all regions of Tamriel and can be lovingly furnished. Here you will learn what is available, where the houses are, and how much the fun will cost.

The Elder Scrolls Online now offers a justice system, the Thieves Guild, and also the assassins of the Dark Brotherhood. However, a typical Elder Scrolls feature is still missing: housing! Because while the hero from Kvatch or the Dovahkiin could comfortably lounge in their own house, your heroes in ESO are all homeless.

Housing Homestead

ESO Housing – All building types, zones, and their costs

On February 6, 2017 (PC) and February 21 (consoles), the “Homestead” update will be released which includes 39 houses that you can fill with over 2,000 decorative items and furniture. All houses can be purchased for gold in the game, but you can also buy them with real money through the Crown Store.

This also applies to furnishing. A table from Reddit with preliminary information about the houses can be found in the next paragraph. It lists the regions of the buildings, the architectural style of the builder race, and the costs for purchase and furnishing. Have fun planning your new home!

WoW: Did Exorsus cheat during the Gul’dan first kill? Blizzard issues statement

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

Is the world-first kill of Gul’dan in WoW “legit” or not? Exorsus is facing challenges in the WoW race for first kills.

Last weekend, the race for first kills in World of Warcraft reached a new peak. The final boss of the Nighthold, the current end content of Legion, was defeated by the Russian guild Exorsus on mythic difficulty.

Although Exorsus is undoubtedly an excellent guild with some of the best players in the world, there have been issues in the past – for instance, the guild was banned during the kill of Helya (the previous end boss) for exploiting a bug. The community closely scrutinized this time and looked for possible bugs that may have been exploited – and they found some.

WoW Exorsus Trinket Buff

According to reports, one of the druids in the raid had the buff from the trinket “Darkmoon Deck: Repose”, which reduces spell costs. However, several players noted in the stream: the druid isn’t even wearing the trinket and still has the buff!

Exorsus denies the allegations and asserts that the appropriate trinket was worn and no exploit was used. If it appears otherwise in the stream and video of the kill, it is said to be an interface or display error that can be triggered by various addons.

The final clarification came from Blizzard itself. Josh Allen, the American community manager, answered the specific question about the buff from the trinket, stating that there is “no reason to believe that something is wrong with the kill.” Since Blizzard usually examines first kills very closely, this chapter of allegations should come to an end.

Exorsus has also released some excerpts from the logs, which clearly show that the corresponding trinket was indeed equipped.

So it’s official: Congratulations on defeating Gul’dan, Exorsus!

Destiny: “Rise of the Sunsinger” – A Warlock Build for PvP

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time 3 minutes

How to upgrade the Sunsinger Warlock in PvP from Destiny? With this build called “Rise of the Sunsinger”!

Meanwhile, it has been months since a fresh breeze blew through the Crucible. There is a lack of content. The last weapon balancing occurred with the launch of “Rise of Iron” in September 2016. Guardians are craving something new.

If you want variety, you can also take the initiative and try out a new Guardian loadout in PvP. Like this one. Mesa Sean presents his build called “Rise of the Sunsinger”, which is supposed to be a Killer Warlock PvP Build:

This is how your Sunsinger becomes a killer

This character setup builds on the Solar Grenade of the Sunsinger and on the exotic gloves “Sunsinger’s Regalia”. This piece of armor comes with this useful perk:

  • Helium Cycle: Increases the duration of the Solar Grenade and you get an additional Solar Grenade charge.

Furthermore, the Sunsinger’s gloves increase grenade throw distance and provide movement transfer (melee energy on grenade hits) or impact induction (grenade energy on melee hits). This piece of armor is fully specialized on the Solar Grenade.

destiny-sonnenbezwinger
Sunsinger’s Regalia
destiny-warlock-build

For the remaining armor pieces, you should ensure that intellect (for super) and discipline (for grenade) are maxed out. The artifact used here is Gheleon’s Rest, which gives you a detailed radar that remains active even with the primary weapon equipped.

For the focus, these focus nodes are important:

  • Solar Grenade
  • Radiant Skin: Light reduces damage taken while active.
  • Flame Shield: Damage dealt with Incinerate (melee) temporarily reduces damage taken.
  • Arcane Spirit, Divine Order
  • Viking Burial: Targets ignited by you take more damage from all sources.
  • Flaming Touch: All grenades ignite enemies and deal damage over time.

Which weapons you choose for the Warlock build is up to you. Here you can find the best legendary primary weapons for PvP.

destiny-solargranaten

A major advantage of this build lies in the defense: Especially when heavy ammo comes, you can claim it for yourself with the grenade flood. Since the Solar Grenades have a longer duration, no opposing Guardian can get close to you quickly. With the Sunsinger’s gloves, the grenades last about 12 seconds, without the exotic around 6 seconds.

An alternative to Sunsinger’s Regalia is the chest piece Heart of Praxic Fire. When Radiance is active, all ability cooldowns are reduced. This means you can throw grenades even faster than with Sunsinger’s Regalia. However, since Solar Grenades burn twice as long with the gloves, these are preferred.

Conclusion: According to Mesa Sean, this build is not only a lot of fun, but it also performs surprisingly effectively in PvP. Because you seriously trouble the opponent with your Solar Grenades. He handles it better than with the Voidwalker or Stormcaller.

What do you think of it? How do you play your Warlock?

In this article, we present a build for the Stormcaller that makes weapons almost unnecessary.

Diablo 3: A lot of criticism of archaic items – Blizzard responds

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

The primal Ancients in Diablo 3 were not well received by a large part of the community. Now Blizzard responds to this criticism.

On the PTR servers of Diablo 3, players can currently try out the Patch 2.5.0 . In this patch, Blizzard introduces the archaic items, which are even rarer than ancient items. While the archaic items also have better stats, they are supposed to have a particularly low drop chance. Many players from the community did not find the implementation of these new items good and expressed criticism. Blizzard takes this negative feedback to heart and provides an official statement.

Concerns about the changes are justified

After the archaic items were introduced, there were many discussions among the players. A new rarity level with extremely low drop chances is not what the community wants as a change for Diablo 3. Even Diablo creator David Brevik criticized the primal Ancients, as it feels like players have no influence over the loot.

Many players are not interested in the increased grind and expressed their concerns and suggestions for improvement in the Diablo forums and on Reddit. Blizzard did not miss this negative feedback. The Community Manager Nevalistis provided feedback in the forum and announced significant changes.

Diablo 3 Blizzard Feedback Archaisch

The Blizzard team was aware that the introduction of archaic items would be somewhat controversial due to their extreme rarity. According to Nevalistis , there are good and justified concerns. Due to the feedback, there will be significant design changes to the archaic items. However, these changes are not set in stone. Since there are still technical hurdles to overcome, these changes will not be included in the next PTR patch but at a later time.

The Patch 2.5.0 will likely not come until the beginning of the tenth season. Until then, Blizzard has time for major changes to these items.

Do you have ideas on how to improve the archaic items in Diablo 3?

The Division: A season pass full of disappointments? Agents expected more

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time 2 minutes

Many agents are dissatisfied with the content of the Season Pass in The Division. They expected more than three game modes. 

A year ago in March 2016, I was one of many agents who excitedly bought the Season Pass just a few days after launch. Why not? The story of The Division was strong, the atmosphere convincing, and Massive promised free updates and fresh content throughout the year. It was perfect!

The hefty 40 euros for the Season Pass made some agents hesitate briefly, but the future of the shooter looked tempting and promising. Additionally, Massive and Ubisoft lured with monthly rewards for Season Pass holders. Before you knew it, the Season Pass was purchased.

In hindsight, we now know that the following months were not nearly as glorious as hoped. Apart from the many issues, was the Season Pass really worth the 40 euros? Did it deliver what the agents expected?

division-agent-grimmig

These are the contents that the Season Pass brought

In addition to exclusive rewards, which probably didn’t wow anyone, the Season Pass includes three game modes as highlights:

  • Underground: You descend into the underground, fight your way through randomly generated areas, rank up in the underground, and receive rewards at the end.
  • Survival: A survival mode where you start “naked” in the middle of a snowstorm with a new character, fight for your survival, and ultimately gain rewards for your main character.
  • Last Stand: A standalone PvP mode that is currently being refined on the PTS.
division-survival-agent-waerme

Additionally, the Season Pass includes two incursions: “Dragon’s Nest” and “Lost Signal.” Initially, there were exclusive gear sets with 1.3, which are now available to all players.

What about story or a larger map?

A Reddit user’s opinion gained overwhelming support in recent days. He complains about the Season Pass: “I actually didn’t want this content at all.” He bought the Season Pass expecting new story missions or map expansions. And now it only delivers three game modes that are separate from the main game.

Another user writes that “Last Stand” is the last thing The Division currently needs. This DLC does provide a larger Dark Zone, and therefore a map expansion to some extent, but the long-requested desire for new story missions is still not fulfilled. The demand is for content that advances the main game and shapes the agents – not just additional modes that provide a brief change of pace.

One agent states that the Season Pass was a complete disappointment for him. The story and setting had so much potential. So now we ask you: Are you satisfied with the Season Pass? Did you expect more from the paid DLCs?

What’s next for The Division? Is there a Year 2 coming?
