In Battlefield 1, you can watch raw melee action in the gameplay video.
The upcoming first-person shooter Battlefield 1 will focus heavily on melee weapons and close-quarters combat. You can charge at each other with an axe, a bayonet, or even a shovel.
In the following video from GameSpot, you can see some selected scenes where the enemy is taken down with melee weapons:

Currently, a closed alpha of Battlefield 1 is running, which a limited number of people have access to. Gradually, videos are being released to the public, which the wider audience has to settle for while waiting for an open beta version.
In Destiny, a lot will change for the PS3 and Xbox 360 Guardians in August – including the Triumph Moments.
Currently, players can obtain the “Year 2” Triumph Moments in Bungie’s MMO shooter. Guardians deal with them in various ways: Many have already completed them, some are indifferent, others are currently eagerly hunting for them, and still others think: “Oh, I’ll take it easy, there’s plenty of time until September 20th.”
If you are facing the darkness on the last-gen consoles, however, you have less time available: For a significant cut will take place starting August 16th.
From mid-August, Destiny changes on PS3 and Xbox 360
Once you have mastered all the Triumph Moments, you will receive a discount code for a special T-shirt in the Bungie Store, which can only be obtained at a horrendous price without this code.
If you play on the old consoles, you have until August 16th at 11 AM to get this nice garment at a reduced price. Because after that you will no longer have access to your character data on bungie.net. If you receive the code before this date, it is valid until October 4th – however, you will not be able to see it on the Bungie page anymore.
Completing the seal book on last-gen will also grant you the code if you perform an account import on PS4 or Xbox One before October 4th. You can find more information about the T-shirt on the official Bungie page.
The in-game rewards of the “Year 2” Triumph Moments can be obtained on PS3 and Xbox 360 until September 20th.
Additionally, the events and activities will change for old-gen users starting in August:
Activities such as Iron Banner and the Trials of Osiris will be available to players with old consoles until the end of August 2016. After that, they will no longer be available.
Starting August 16th, you can no longer buy Silver.
If you still have Silver in your account after August 16th, you can still spend it.
With this form you can request more PokéStops and Gyms in Pokémon GO.
Pokémon GO has officially been available in Germany for a few days now. However, some areas need significant improvement: Many users are complaining both in the Pokémon GO group on Facebook and in our comment sections on Mein-MMO that there are hardly any PokéStops or Gyms in their locality. The gaming experience is not particularly high for these players. But that should change now – Niantic has put an online form for this purpose.
Creating PokéStops and Gyms is no longer possible – Instead, you can request them!
Maybe you live in a quieter village where there are hardly any PokéStops or Gyms that you can use to your advantage and for enjoyment. Especially PokéStops offer interesting items, such as potions and Pokémon eggs, as well as the opportunity to stock up on your Poké Balls. Especially with wild Pokémon that have a high level, you can easily use +15 of the balls.
On the official Niantic Support website, you can now fill out a form where you can inform the developers that there are no Gyms or PokéStops in your area. Just a few hours ago, you could still create your own Gyms on the Support website – however, this form has now been deactivated. Keep in mind that many players are using this form at the moment, so there is no guarantee that each request will be processed quickly or actually implemented – However, you should try it if you feel disadvantaged regarding PokéStops and Gyms.
How many world quests are there in WoW: Legion? Are they worth it? Are these just daily quests in different clothing? Blizzard answers the questions in the Q&A.
Never Bored, but Never Forced
To ensure all fans of World of Warcraft are thoroughly prepared for the new expansion Legion, the developers hold a livestream every week and answer numerous questions from the community. This week, they focused on Jeremy Feasel, the Senior Game Designer who answered many questions about world quests, one of the new endgame content features of Legion.
The world quests are designed so that players can find some things on their world map with appealing rewards each time they log in. This includes everything that WoW has to offer in terms of loot: equipment, reputation, gold, toys, mounts, and pets.
In total, there are nearly 1000 world quests, which should keep the system fresh for a long time. “The quests for special bosses, for example, only appear every 3 months – the same quest can thus only be completed 4 times a year.” This is not the case for all missions, some are indeed seen more frequently. However, the developers placed great emphasis on ensuring that it is not only mindless “Kill X” and “Collect Y,” but also a variety of mini-games, rare spawns, world bosses, and other things that offer variety.
Progress Only with World Quests? Possible, but Difficult.
A viewer asked whether it is possible to optimally equip one’s character solely through world quests, to which Feasel confirmed. As with almost all endgame content of Legion, it is also possible to achieve steady character progression solely with world quests. However, this requires luck and perseverance to reach the same level as a mythic raider. The chance for better loot is higher in more difficult content – this has not changed with Legion.
The System is in Constant Flux
If the community concludes that certain quests appear too often or have become boring, it is no problem for the developers to remove specific quests from the rotation. The system is intentionally designed so that extensions can be added easily and quickly, and adjustments can be made.
A Preview with the Pre-Patch
Incidentally, Feasel pointed out that the Legion invasions are “basically world quests.” Accordingly, all players can get a small taste if they participate in the invasions and banish the demons back to the Nether.

A fun video has been released for The Division. Thanks to the well-known opening music from Pokémon, an agent survives in the Dark Zone.
The “Pokémon GO” hype is currently felt in all walks of life. Whether on television, online, on the radio, or on the street – the pocket monsters are gaining worldwide popularity in augmented reality and are on everyone’s lips again.
The YouTuber Michael Freeman likely benefited from this hype in the Dark Zone. He played the well-known opening music from the Pokémon series, “Pokémon Theme”, through the microphone. When he encountered a group of rogue agents with the manhunt status, that melody saved his life. How so?
Pokémon is indeed celebrated by rogues
As the agent climbed a ladder to the enemy agents, blaring the music, he was initially shot at. However, the rogues then started to laugh heartily – after all, it’s Pokémon in the Dark Zone! – and one said, “I like you.” They spared his life and celebrated the agent and the Pokémon song. No one shot at each other; the mood was just good.
From minute 2, the agent dances a little to the Pokémon music, which the rogues also enjoy. Essentially, the agent managed to make his enemies laugh for minutes.
At 3:13, the song ends, and another highlight of the video follows: “Taps – United States Army Ceremonial Band,” to which the agent salutes and fires shots into the air. The rogues almost collapse with laughter.
The video lasts nearly 20 minutes during which the agent plays various melodies. Here you can watch the agent’s video:

Today we ask at Mein MMO: Are you caught up in the Pokémon Go hype or is it just annoying you right now?
Pokémon Go – Is it still cool if mom plays?
Facebook stopped being cool when everyone’s mom, niece, or grandpa joined. The cool, hip trendsetters, the twenty-somethings find a topic and leave it when the kids or the parent generation catch on.
It’s dominating not only gaming media but also the general interest press: It appears in morning news, local newspapers, on the radio, just everywhere. And who wants to be involved, who wants to belong, participates, at least tries it out to be able to join the conversation.
And the more it is talked about, the more people want to be part of it.
Pokémon GO – more popular than porn?
Some say: It’s the new hula hoop. An inexplicable “black swan” event, a thing that sometimes just happens. Statistics show that it easily overshadows internet phenomena of recent years like the ice bucket challenge or Gangnam Style. Yes, more people are said to have googled “Pokémon Go” in the last few days than for porn.
But this also comes with a so-called “backlash” phenomenon – what is too popular and keeps coming up can also annoy many. This happens to everyone, even Jennifer Lawrence – and she is actually perfect.
So the first developers are already offering Pokémon blockers that are supposed to guarantee a poke-free internet.

Schuhmann says: I currently feel old because I missed the original Pokémon phenomenon by about 5 years and played with Masters of the Universe as a child, not with Pokémon. Everyone else in the editorial team is 5-10 years younger than me and varying degrees of Poké fans: Ttime, Cortyn, Patrick – all fully into it, the virus has been slumbering in them since childhood. Even the boss, despite early greying, is in his late 20s exactly in the age group for whom a childhood dream is coming true now.
Confessed Poké junkie: our boss.
For me as someone “not infected by the hype”, it’s still an exciting phase because I am very interested and excited about the “augmented reality” phenomenon. I am also incredibly curious in a professional sense to find out and see where this is going, as McDonald’s restaurants buy a Pokémon lure for a few euros to attract customers to the restaurant and then offer them a Big Mac.
So the hype does not annoy me. However, I am also not captivated by it. I am curious about it, as I have not experienced this specific phenomenon before and find it much more exciting than “I pour ice water over my head, scream loudly and post it on Facebook.”
What about you and Pokémon GO?
Our question to you: Is the Pokémon hype annoying you right now? Do you disgustedly put down the phone when your mom invites you to go Pokémon hunting in the city? Do you wrinkle your nose when another article on the topic comes up on your favorite website? Do you consider kids looking at their smartphones walking by rivers to be zombies or moon-struck? Or have you also caught the fever and are enjoying all the craziness right now? Do you wake up in the morning and scream “I will be the very best, like no one ever was,” while your girlfriend enthusiastically cheers you on and shouts “Catch them all, Tiger!”
Or are you somewhere in between? What is your stance on Pokémon GO right now?

A trailer has been released for No Man’s Sky, showcasing the exploration of the gigantic galaxy.
Next month marks the release of No Man’s Sky. In advance, the developers are gradually releasing videos about the four “pillars” on which the space simulation rests: exploration, trading, survival, and combat.
The first trailer presents exploration. See for yourself:

No Man’s Sky is big – really big. The galaxy is teeming with an incredible 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 planets – that’s more than 18 trillion.
Each planet is unique. The landscapes, creatures, and plants differ from one another, and you will find various resources that you can harvest.
You can enter, explore, and rename any world you discover as you wish. However, it will be impossible for you to see every planet in the universe. While the planets may be undiscovered, they are by no means uninhabited. You will also encounter intelligent life forms with which you can interact. How you handle these interactions is up to you.
Each race has its own language that you can learn through interaction and by exploring alien structures. The better you know the respective language, the higher the chances that communication will be successful and business dealings will be more profitable.
Today, the Exotic vendor Xur travels to Destiny. We welcome him and take a look at his offers and location from July 15 to July 17.
The second year of Destiny is coming to an end. Many Guardians are currently busy completing the Triumphs so they can proudly mark a check next to the “The Taken King” year. They don’t want to leave anything unfinished.
But now let’s focus on the here and now. It is Xur Day. The shaggy Agent of the Nine, who has tasty Exotics in his backpack, visits the Guardians.
All about Xur in Destiny on July 15, July 16, and July 17 on PS4, PS3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360
When does Xur arrive and when does he leave again?
Xur appears on July 15 at 11 AM in the Tower or the Reef. There, he spends the weekend, chatting and joking a bit with the passing Guardians and showcasing his inventory. On July 17 at 11 AM, he grabs his hat and sets off home with a large pot of Strange Coins.
Where is Xur? What is his location this weekend?
Those who know Xur know that the vendor has his favorite locations in the Tower and in the Reef where he sells his goods. This weekend, Xur is at the Reef. Our friend Nexxoss Gaming will take you there and show you his inventory:

Blizzard listens to the community, as at least on the test server of Overwatch the hitboxes have significantly shrunk.
The Head is Where the Head Should Be
Among the many points of criticism that Overwatch has received from hardcore shooter fans, the large hitboxes of the characters have particularly bothered many players. It was possible to take out some characters with headshots even without being able to see the head. This was particularly noticeable with kills executed by Hanzo, as his arrows also have a large hitbox, making aiming comparatively easy.
Apparently, Blizzard has taken the fans’ criticism to heart and significantly reduced the hitboxes on the test server. The YouTuber Bl_Iddy has created a comparison video where he compares Hanzo’s hitboxes directly with the live version together with a friend. The result is sure to satisfy even the biggest critics, as an arrow now seems to hit only when it actually should.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-aQTmb6QpI
The adjustments have been made to all characters, although in some cases they are more significant than in others. Some players report that Mei’s icicles still have a relatively large hitbox, although improvements have also been made there. In any case, aiming and hitting with all “projectile” characters will become significantly more difficult with the release of the next patch.
There has been no official statement from Blizzard regarding this change, but the number of players wanting an explanation for it is likely limited.
For more news and articles about Blizzard’s hero shooter, you can find them on our Overwatch game page. Tips and tricks for hitting with smaller hitboxes can be found in our guides section for Overwatch.

The phenomenon Pokémon GO is taking over the world, but there are limits.
The smartphone game Pokémon GO sends players into the real world to hunt for the little pocket monsters, but one encounters limits of good taste. A report from New York Magazine’s “Yes, you can catch Pokémon at Auschwitz” (Yes, you can catch Pokémon in Auschwitz) caused some outrage.
Going Poké-hunting at one of the places where the Nazis carried out the systematic extermination of the Jews… No. The operators of the memorial site demanded in a now-deleted tweet that the developers prevent playing at such locations. It is disrespectful.
In the meantime, it seems that the conversation has moved from Twitter to official channels. It is said that they have been in contact with Niantic Labs. Specific details from the talks between the memorial site and the video game developer are not available.
In addition to the Polish Auschwitz, German foundations responsible for places like Dachau have also reached out to the developer to be spared from the Pokémon hype. It is technically possible, they say in a statement from the foundation. And it is urgently necessary for reasons of decency.
Mein MMO says: Especially images showing a Smogon Pokémon at memorial sites make such an approach necessary. There can be excellent debates about good taste. But when the operators of these memorial sites say: We don’t want this. We find it inappropriate, it is important to respect that. It is understandable in any case.
With some things, one simply cannot and should not deal with them in a “relaxed and playful” manner.

In Blizzard’s game Hearthstone, beginners can make many mistakes. To become a better player, one must recognize and avoid them.
Errors are completely normal; even at the Legend rank, they can happen. Recognizing the mistakes is important because only then can they be avoided in the future. We present classic beginner mistakes and how to prevent them in this Hearthstone guide, summarized in 5 points:
1. Overestimating your own health points
Health points are a resource, nothing more and nothing less. However, they are often overestimated. If there is a minion on the opponent’s field with the stats 7/1 (7 attack, 1 health) and taunt, it can be the right decision as a Druid to use the hero power to kill it. Especially when you still have 30 health points left. This saves you a spell or minion for that.
One must first know how much damage the opponent can inflict in the next turn at maximum. If the enemy is a Priest, there is little to worry about. A Shaman could deal 10 health points with Doomhammer in combination with Rockbiter Weapon. Assuming they have the mana and you don’t have a taunt minion. Theoretically, more is possible; here you need to know the cards and calculate.
So the question is: Am I still “safe” if I eliminate the 7/1 minion as a Druid now and then have 6 health points less than before?
2. Ignoring the board
Very similar to the previous mistake. One underestimates the health points of the opponent and primarily focuses on dealing damage. For instance, one might start in turn 1 with Arcane Missiles because it deals 3 guaranteed damage to the opponent. It is better not to waste your own cards like that.
One should think about the future. Those who ensure that the opponent’s board is empty can deal more damage over time. And indeed much more than if one ignores the board and only targets the hero. Use your own minions and kill those of the enemy. Arcane Missiles should be used to deal the final blow, such as against the 7/1 taunt minion.
However, there are decks designed to deal 30 damage for victory as quickly as possible. Yet even these typically try to maintain board control in the early rounds, meaning to dominate the board. After a few turns, they will switch tactics and attack only the hero. The idea: The opponent dies before they can take control of the board. And even if they are able to do so, their health points are so low that spells, like Bomb! or Soulfire, suffice for the finishing blow.
3. Not knowing the decks
Admittedly, as a beginner, it is particularly difficult to avoid this mistake. It takes time and experience before one can assess the opponent’s decks. However, one should inform themselves about their own deck, especially if they copied it from the internet.
There is a playstyle called Zoo. The term comes from Magic: The Gathering, a deck with many small and mana-efficient minions and few spells. With the Warlock’s hero power, one rarely runs out of cards. The mistake: Many think Zoo is a Rush deck. This means that one plays minions and primarily attacks the hero.
However, this is a Control deck. One wants to dominate the board with many minions on their side. This works quite well, as your own units are cheap yet strong enough to be played early on. Those who do not utilize the deck this way play it inefficiently. For the Rush variant, other decks are better suited. Additionally, this repeats error number 2: Ignoring the board.
One should also know the opponent’s decks. If the Warlock uses their hero power in turn 2, they either have a bad start or are playing a late-game variant. This is a deck that becomes more effective the longer the game lasts. Only if one knows approximately what cards the opponent has can they calculate how much damage they can inflict in a turn at maximum. This allows for an accurate assessment of one’s own health points.
4. Playing (mana) inefficiently
These are small mistakes. An individual error does not stand out quickly, but they add up over time. One should always use all the mana they have available. If I have 5 mana, I play a 5-mana card. Or one for 3 mana, including the hero power. If one wants to deviate from this, they need a reason. Those who play with leftover mana should always ask themselves whether this is the right decision or if it could have been done better.
The hero power is almost always a good choice. If one already has board control, they can certainly play a slightly weaker minion and summon a 1/1. Because the hero’s ability is endless, you can use it each turn again; the cards cannot. This way, one gains a greater advantage over time.
Similarly relevant is drawing cards. If one has an Acolyte of Pain on the field and plans to attack with it, they should do that first. Even if one already knows exactly what cards they will play next. It is more sensible to draw the card first. Maybe a completely new tactic will emerge from that. The same applies to the Warlock’s ability. If you know that you will have 2 mana left at the end of the turn, draw the card first before doing anything else.
5. Playing too quickly
No, this does not mean that one does not leave themselves enough time to think. Particularly beginners do not make this mistake fortunately—they develop it later. There is a distinction between fast and slow moves, and sometimes one has to decide which choice is better.
Fast moves are those cards that provide an immediate advantage. Typically, this involves spells, like the Mage’s Fireball. There are also some minions, like C’Thun’s Disciple or Ragnaros. Slow cards are often better, but provide an advantage only in the following turn. Often, they involve minions. The Frostwind Yeti is a potential example since it does nothing when played. With Wild Growth, there are also slow spells.
Those who already dominate the field can play slow cards much better, thereby creating further advantages. Fast cards are meant for the opposite situation.
Weapons are representatives of fast cards because they can be deployed immediately. At the same time, they are quite flexible, as they do not need to be used instantly. However, a common mistake is to attack the hero with them when the opponent’s board is empty. In a way, one does not ignore the board as per error number 2 since it is indeed empty. Nevertheless, it is rather unwise. Keep the weapon and wait until the enemy plays something. That way, one might need to sacrifice one less minion and thus gain an advantage in the long run.

In The Division, Massive announces exclusive “events” for Season Pass holders.
When the Season Pass for The Division was introduced, it was not only about expansions and exclusive monthly content but also about “special events”. But what kind of events are these for the “Season Pass” holders? So far, there has been no trace of them.
Now, Massive has commented on these events. Initially, the plan was apparently to give Agents only a “fun” bonus as a thank you for their loyalty and engagement. However, it was recognized that expectations were significantly higher than what was initially envisioned. Therefore, the developers decided to create something else.
Events are monthly supply drops outside the Dark Zone
With update 1.3, the first version of the “Season Pass” events was implemented. Twice a month, you will receive a supply drop outside the Dark Zone. You can see where this will be dropped on the map, which will show you the exact location.
The crate is guarded by a group ofNPCs at level 32 and contains three items that are either gear sets or of the high-end quality. They are adjusted to your gear score in terms of equipment value.
On the 1st and 15th of every month, a new crate will drop from the sky, replacing the previous one. It is recommended to definitely collect the rewards before these dates.
In the end, they thank the Agents for their loyalty, engagement, and patience. Working on The Division and with a passionate community is an incredible learning process for everyone.
What do you think of these exclusive events for “Season Pass” holders?
There will be a stream for Destiny titled “The Rise of Iron”. Additionally, the Iron Banner begins next week in July.
Bungie’s MMO shooter is gaining momentum again. After the reveal stream in early June, the developers have been withholding fresh information about the upcoming autumn expansion “The Rise of Iron”. In the current status report “This Week at Bungie,” further streams have been announced. The first of these streams is scheduled to take place next week.
On Wednesday, July 20, at 7 PM, a “Cosmodrome Winter Tour” will kick off on Twitch. It is explained that this will not be an excursion through the Infested Lands – that will come later – but rather about the transformation of the known world. How has it changed over time?
We will follow the stream on Mein-MMO for you.
The Iron Banner in July is approaching
After the last June Iron Banner was plagued by delays and Crucible issues, the July Iron Banner is expected to be more moderate.
Lord Saladin arrives at the Tower on July 19 at 7 PM, watch as you smack each other, and disappears on July 26 at 11 AM.
Gameplay will be in Control mode.
You will not have many chances left to prove yourselves worthy in the Iron Banner to become an Iron Lord. “The Rise of Iron” is set to be released on September 20, for which Lord Saladin has been training you from the very beginning.
In addition to class-specific armor pieces, gloves, and boots, as well as PlayStation-exclusive items, gloves, next week there will be the sniper rifle and the pulse rifle.
Additionally, there will be coverage of last generation consoles:
Starting August 16, it will be a done deal. The last-gen consoles PS3 and Xbox 360 will no longer receive major game updates and content. From this date, account imports can be conducted. Furthermore, from August 16, no progress can be shared between console generations.
We will provide a dedicated article on this shortly.
Valve, the operator of Steam, is now taking action against gambling sites related to CS:GO.
Since 2011, players have been trading in-game items on Steam. Since 2013, a form of “gambling” has been observed in the popular shooter CS:GO.
Weapon skins are traded for real money. Skins can practically be converted into real money at any time, or users can buy weapon skins for real money. Furthermore, there are sites that accept such skins as a sort of “currency” for gambling. For example, one can bet on the outcome of a professional CS:GO match using skins and then exchange the skins for real money.
This is considered illegal gambling by some. Critics compare skins as a substitute currency to chips in casinos. And for such gambling, there are clear regulations in the USA. Everything is state-regulated.
Particularly controversial: Critics accuse the entire complex of targeting underage customers, thereby enabling children and young people to gamble.
A lawsuit from a CS:GO player forces Valve to take action
This practice of “illegal gambling” with CS:GO items seems to have been ongoing for a while and is reaching larger dimensions. There seems to be significant money involved for the operators. However, in recent weeks, a discussion has erupted after a player sued Valve, alleging that they are supporting an illegal gambling ring.
Now Valve has come to a decision after the company’s silence drew criticism and the coverage of the topic has intensified in recent weeks.
Valve intends to take action against such gambling sites and clearly distances itself from them. It is stated that such sites using the Steam API is already against the regulations. They will send cease-and-desist letters to the corresponding sites. The goal is to keep such “gambling services” sites away from Steam. Furthermore, if necessary, additional measures will be taken.
Valve distances itself from gambling sites
Valve is particularly annoyed that the impression is created that they themselves are directly involved in the trading because so much happens through Steam. They clarify: We have no business relationships with such sites. We have never received money from them directly, and we do not have any system on Steam that converts skins into money.
The plaintiff criticized that Valve indirectly benefits from their percentage of the business with skins.
The major streaming service Twitch has also reacted and wants to ban “gambling podcasts” or other content that promotes gambling in CS:GO.
We have already addressed the relatively complex topic of “gambling in CS:GO” in this article:
In FIFA 17, you gain more control over set pieces, allowing you to add a personal touch.
Free Kicks: You can determine your run-up for free kicks, influencing the curve and trajectory of the ball. Outside curve shots are possible, where the ball curls around the wall.
Corner Kicks: A new corner targeting system has been developed to allow for more precise teammate selection. Additionally, teammates react differently during the delivery, helping you to prepare headers more effectively.
Penalty Kicks: Now you decide how you want to approach the ball. You can come at it from various angles and with adjusted speed. From the spot, you have more options in FIFA 17.
Throw-ins: During throw-ins, you can walk up and down the line to improve your throw-in position. You can also feint throw-ins to briefly confuse opponents.
In the following trailer, you can see the revamped set pieces in FIFA 17:

In The Division, we show you tips and tricks on how to tackle the Dragon’s Nest in the heroic difficulty “Heroic”.
In Ubisoft’s MMO shooter, incursions can be played in three different difficulty levels: Hard, Challenging, and Heroic. These differ not only in the strength of the enemies but also in the quality of the rewards. Moreover, the hardest activities usually require different strategies and more teamwork.
For a few days now, the Heroic mode has also been available in the third incursion. The YouTuber Schorri TV presents tips, tricks, and tactics in the video on how to manage the Dragon’s Nest on heroic:
https://youtu.be/qsubTXqxYrw
Dragon’s Nest in Heroic Mode
This activity is anything but easy. Even the most experienced and best agents will be challenged by the Dragon’s Nest at the highest difficulty. Especially on the rooftop, the area of the Four Horsemen, you will break a sweat.
An important value in this Cleaners incursion is Resistance to Exotic Damage. However, it would be incorrect to say that with high Exo-Resistance you are protected from flamethrowers: All enemies are at level 35 and can quickly burn you down.
For skills, 2 to 3 of you should focus on Sticky Grenades with Blinding Effect. Also choose Turret, Electro Turret, and Healing Skills. Furthermore, an agent with the Recovery Set is useful, as explosive and incendiary shots will be helpful.
The Dragon’s Nest in Heroic Mode also begins with the door opening and you being visited by the Cleaners. There are no cover options, only the escape backwards. To keep the dangerous, flamethrowing enemies at bay, you will use the Sticky Grenades with Blinding Effect and your Electro Turrets here. These skills will control the mobs for you, giving you more time to fill them with bullets. Don’t forget the grenades either. Fight your way forward bravely until you reach the rooftop. This is the hardest part of the incursion. The tactic that we already presented for the challenge mode of Dragon’s Nest will also help you here. However, this time the enemies are significantly stronger.
Before the first shot is fired, sneak up on the enemies from the right. Locate the two engineers who want to drive their fancy electric cars towards you, and eliminate them first. You can recognize them by the wrenches above their heads. Run to the stairs on the other side of the rooftop and barricade yourselves there.
Use the Turret, Healing skills, and brute firepower to save your neck. You will be pursued by melee fighters who need to be taken out as quickly as possible.
From here, you can tactically take down the enemies together by coordinating from which direction they come. But be careful: Enemies will spawn behind you as well. These have the highest priority and must be shot down by all agents.
You must withstand three waves of enemies, with all possible types of enemies appearing, including those with the extremely dangerous toy cars (in the second wave). If you survive this difficult phase, the bosses from this area will come: The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
The Fight Against the Horsemen in Heroic Mode
Schorri’s tactic is: Stay at a distance from the Four Horsemen. You run clockwise around the map, shooting at Death, Famine, Pestilence, and War, and if they get too close, you run a bit further.
However, you don’t completely kill any of them, as otherwise for each Horseman adds will spawn, making your life unnecessarily harder. Weakening all four Horsemen down so you can take them out simultaneously. Now many adds will spawn, but you no longer have to worry about the big bosses, which makes things easier. Stay focused, take them out, and collect your well-deserved loot.
Important Notes:
While you are running clockwise around the map, a Horseman may cross your path. You can temporarily paralyze this one with the Sticky Grenade with Blinding Effect and pass by him. This method takes some time, but it gets the job done.
Communication is key. Always coordinate on where the enemies are coming from or who is using the Sticky Grenade. Make clear statements.
The adds that spawn after the deaths of the four Horsemen are no joke. Watch out for the explosive cars and the melee fighters.
The Fight Against the Firetruck
On the way to the final boss, the Firetruck, you must first fight your way through a corridor. Stay as far back as possible and sniper the enemies out of the way. Be careful: Once you defeat the enemies, more will appear. Among them are flamethrowers and melee fighters.
When fighting the final boss, proceed as you are used to. Especially remember the Post with the Immunizer Mod. With Turret and Triage, you can more or less ride out the fun without much trouble. Two agents will then activate the switches. You give them the survival link on their way. And so the Firetruck is no problem. However, the enemies are stronger than on the other difficulty levels.

On August 1, the new DLC Shadows of the Hist will be released for the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online, bringing new content into the game.
MMORPG.com had the opportunity to take an in-depth look at the DLC and reports on this experience, which we summarize here. On the one hand, there is talk of the possibility of dyeing clothing. This has led to controversial discussions within the community. Because customizing the hero will essentially only be possible through the ESO shop or an ESO Plus membership. The question here is: Is that so bad? Isn’t it better for developers to charge money for something like this rather than offering it as Pay2Win content in the shop? After all, it is just cosmetic changes.
Customizations and City Conquests
Customizations or changing the name and race are possible through tokens that can be bought in the shop. Clothing, on the other hand, is dyed with dye stamps, which can also be purchased in the Crown Store. ESO Plus members, however, can dye clothing without stamps. But Shadows of the Hist brings even more innovations. In the region of Cyrodiil, for example, you will see three new icons. These are the cities Bruma, Vlastarus, and Cropsford. Each faction can attempt to capture these cities by conquering three important points of the cities. The faction that has managed to capture a city gains a respawn point for faction members, providing tactical advantages in PvP.
It starts on August 1!
Additionally, there are new, or renamed passive skills for each race, making the choice of race even more interesting. MMORPG.com has not been able to test the two new dungeons yet, which tell a story about the Argonians. How Shadows of the Hist plays can be experienced by all fans of the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online on August 1 on PC and on August 16 on Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
