Just before the launch of the upcoming shooter Doom, a trailer has been released that showcases the “Doom character” of the game.
In Doom, it’s all about combat: Killing nasty demons with a variety of weapons is the goal, as Executive Producer Marty Stratton and Creative Director Hugo Martin explain in a new video from Bethesda.

Doom aims to provide players with a unique experience. At the center of this are numerous weapons, each of which is designed to feel different and have their “own style.” According to the developers, you will feel connected to the weapons. For a personal touch, you can further modify them.
Right at the beginning of the single-player experience, you dive into a fast-paced battle against hellish enemies. You survive by advancing through a comprehensive upgrade system and enhancing your character with several customization options. This allows you to influence how the game feels and how your own gaming experience will unfold. For example, you can tailor your style further towards speed.
But you don’t just face the demons with raw firepower. There will be various “Glory Kills” for melee combat, meaning brutal kill animations that will add even more “Doom character” to the game.
Doom will be released worldwide tomorrow, on May 13, for Playstation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
Will you plunge directly into hell?

Mega Bloks is releasing a construction set for the MMO shooter Destiny. We’ll take a look at what these figures and objects from the Destiny universe look like.
This is what the game and collectible figures from Destiny look like
Currently, you can view nine different Destiny sets in the official Mega Bloks shop, which cost between 8 and 70 US dollars. The company advertises that you can build your own visions of the Destiny universe with micro-action figures and other items and bring your legend to reality.
However, this is difficult for Titans, as Mega Bloks (so far) has not released a set for this class. Instead, there are two Hunter sets and one for the Warlock. Guardians who desperately want a Titan on their shelf must get the “Cabal Interceptor” set. Here, a Sunbreaker Titan is included.
According to the description, these figures are full of details. Additionally, you can remove and reassemble the Guardian gear. Sometimes, extra weapons and armor parts are included. The Destiny sets are supposed to be combinable with each other.
These are the Mega-Bloks-Destiny sets:
The “Hunter Cryptid Armory” set includes a Hunter with various weapons, the Nightstalker Bow, armor parts, and a Ghost accessory.
The “Hunter Starwinder Armory” set comes with a Hunter, various weapons, armor parts, and a Ghost accessory.
The “Warlock Samsara Armory” set lets a Voidwalker Warlock jump, whose super apparently has the wrong color. Additionally, there are weapons, armor parts, and a stylish Ghost.
In the “Sparrow S-31V” set, there is a Sparrow, a Warlock, a Fallen Captain, and a Speeder.
The “Sparrow S-10V” set contains a Sparrow, a Hunter, a Fallen Captain, and a Speeder.
The Atheon set contains Atheon, a Warlock, and a Harpy (according to the description):
The “Cabal Interceptor” set is the only source for a Titan. There’s also a Cabal Interceptor:
In the “Arcadia Jumpship” set, a jumpship and a Warlock await you.
The “Fallen Walker” set is the most expensive Destiny set and provides not only a Fallen Walker but also a Hunter, a Fallen Captain, and a Speeder. The Hunter, by the way, is holding a Gjallarhorn.
What do you think of these Destiny collectibles? Would you put these on your shelf?

This was too much for the moderator of the Twitch chat of the Hearthstone Dreamhack event – the chat simply went too far this time!
Anyone who watched the Hearthstone tournament at the Dreamhack on Twitch.tv and did not hide the chat will probably know exactly what this is about. According to a chat moderator of the event, the Twitch chat was full of racism, sexism, and generally derogatory comments. Now the typical Twitch viewer thinks “It’s all the same, what’s the problem?” – This time it was even worse than usual.
“The Twitch chat is rarely mature, but that was too much!”
Carling “Toastthebadger” Filewich has long been a community member of Hearthstone and was asked if he could moderate the chat during the Dreamhack weekend. He says: It was not just about making fun of people because of their descent, weight, or appearance. It was even bad for some people in the chat how someone held their pen – simply everyone who was shown on the stream screen was insulted by people in the chat.
Although the entire Dreamhack tournament was well thought out, Filewich says, not enough thought was put into the Twitch chat. Even Moobot (a chat bot that can automatically ban people when forbidden words are written) was set so that only the Tryhard emote was banned – everything else was okay.
“The Dreamhack did not think enough about chat moderation for the Hearthstone channel, and the moderators (myself included) failed to handle the Dreamhack.” The selection of moderators was already not good. If you logged into the chat at the right time over the weekend, you could even see moderators participating in the racist spam. Those moderators even offered to unban banned users, regardless of how racist they had previously expressed themselves.
Such a thing must not happen again in the future
The organizers of such tournaments should prioritize chat moderation more. While you can’t expect the highest level and intellectual conversations with several thousand viewers, it should never again unfold as it did over the weekend in the chat, says Filewich. However, he does not want to blame the Dreamhack organizers for how inhumane it was in the Twitch chat of the Hearthstone tournament. The users who wrote the messages, which Filewich himself did not want to quote, are solely responsible for that.
There were too few moderators, and those who were there were not the right ones and did not have the necessary tools to control the chat. Filewich says he hopes that in the future more attention will be paid to planning an experienced moderation team for the Twitch chat. Even if it is not the majority of the community, this toxic behavior casts a bad light on the community as a whole. He hopes that readers will agree and decide together “Enough is Enough!“

Rift introduces a new rewards system for regular players. We will tell you everything about the affinity rewards.
Affinity Points Await Every Day
In recent weeks and months, RIFT has been increasingly encouraging players to spend real money in the game. Another step in this direction has now been taken with the new affinity system, which is intended to reward regular players even further.

I consent to external content being displayed to me. Personal data can be transmitted to third party platforms.
Read more about our privacy policy.
As long as you are a regular player (i.e., have a subscription), you can accumulate affinity points every day:
5 affinity points are given for the first login of the day
1 affinity point is earned for each hour spent in the game (maximum of 3)
This way, you can collect up to 8 affinity points every day at best. The points are account-wide, so it doesn’t matter with which character you collect them; all can spend them on various rewards.
What Rewards Can Be Obtained for Affinity Points?
The affinity points can be spent on numerous rewards in a new category of the Rift shop.
We have a small selection of the rewards for you here:
For 58 points, various Dream Orbs can be purchased. These are used like runes in armor – however, they always provide the maximum possible bonus of a desired attribute.
Also, fishing and bait are available, which can help you catch the “best possible” rewards.
For 240 affinity points (i.e., 30 days of daily play as a regular player), access to the exclusive dimension “Atia” is granted.
The perhaps most spectacular but also most expensive rewards are the various mounts. These cost between 450 and 625 affinity points (56 or 79 days) but look quite stylish.
Anyone wanting to get all mounts will probably need to be a regular player in Rift for well over a year. In the future, there will be more rewards, so the system will be expanded in due course.

Overwatch will deliver two fresh cinematics featuring the heroes Soldier: 76, Hanzo, and Genji this month.
2 Cinematics featuring Soldier: 76, Hanzo, and Genji
Overwatch, the upcoming hero shooter from Blizzard, draws a lot of attention even among those who aren’t interested in shooters or action games. The reason for this is the high-quality short films that introduce the backstory of the game world. The developers promised a total of 4 cinematics about different characters, but only 2 have been released so far. Now they have announced the date when the other videos will be released.
On May 22, just 2 days before the release of Overwatch, the two missing cinematics will be shown in some cinemas in America, the United Kingdom, Spain, and Poland.
Meanwhile, it is also known which characters will be featured in the cinematics. The first will focus on Soldier: 76 and his past, along with wild street battles and plenty of action. The second video is about the Shimada brothers Genji and Hanzo. The two are engaged in a long family feud over honor and duty – we will learn more about it in the coming weeks. A first teaser of both videos has been uploaded by the Coke eSports Twitter account.
It is to be expected that the short films will also be available on YouTube shortly after that. Therefore, it’s only a matter of time before we get to enjoy the two films.
In the meantime, check out the two other cinematics that have already been released:
In the MMO shooter The Division, maintenance is taking place today on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. The server status will be “offline” for several hours.
Today, on May 12, the weekly maintenance is happening. The servers will be shut down at 9 AM and are expected to be down for three hours. At 12 PM, you can return to restoring law and order in Manhattan.

The past week was probably the quietest since the launch of The Division: No major bugs or exploits have been uncovered. Over time, Massive seems to be getting a handle on the errors and issues. However, there is still much work ahead for the developers. Especially the cheating and hacking problems are still not resolved.
No gameplay changes will take place today. During maintenance, the team will only be making minor tweaks in the background on the servers. The next batch of bug fixes is probably only to be expected with Update 1.2 “Conflict,” which is slowly making its way to us.
It can be expected that during today’s State of the Game, further information about the May update will be revealed. Perhaps even the release date? We will report on this in a timely manner.
With the DLC “Dark Brotherhood”, the veteran ranks from the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online are being removed. Now the developers explain how this will happen.
The veteran ranks of the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online have long been a controversial feature and Zenimax Online aims to promote a standardization of game progression with their removal. With the introduction of the Champion system, another system was also introduced that defined the strength of the hero. However, since they want to standardize this now, the focus will be on the Champion system in the future.
Veteran ranks will become Champion points
The removal of veteran ranks is not supposed to affect ESO’s game flow. Therefore, the veteran ranks will be converted into Champion points using a simple formula. For each veteran rank, players will receive ten Champion points. This means that if you previously had veteran rank 5 and fought against NPCs with veteran rank 8, you will have Champion level 50 after the transition and will fight against NPCs with Champion level 80. There will be an adjustment for attribute and skill points.
For each veteran rank, you received one point, which leads to the need to convert an additional 16 attribute points and 16 skill points. This results in only getting an additional attribute and skill point every five levels and two additional points every ten levels.
The balancing will be adjusted
However, you will receive Champion points in the game much faster than veteran points – especially when the hero is refreshed, he gains experience four times as fast. Here, of course, something needs to be adjusted in the balancing, which is why the levels of monsters in some areas will be adjusted. Champion points apply to all heroes you own. So, if you create a new hero and reach level 50 with it, it can access all previously collected Champion points.
Basketballs are not actually killing tools. In Overwatch they are doubly mean.
Junkrat, the explosive basketball star
If you played the open beta of Overwatch last weekend, you probably had your virtual life lights blown out in an amusing way more than once. One of the most amusing methods was recently reported by Kotaku. In some spawn areas of the different maps, you can find basketballs that can be tossed around with shots and melee attacks. The interesting thing: the character Junkrat can place both his bear trap and his mine on the ball.

In combination, you then have a bouncing, deadly ball that you only need to carry to the enemy team with some skill. Once the trap snaps shut, Junkrat manually detonates the mine – Boom! Tracer is already lying in the dust.
This method is obviously a bug, as normally you cannot remove the objects from the spawn area – but placing the mine and trap apparently causes this rule to be overridden.

The hero shooter Battleborn is currently selling better than Borderlands did in 2009.
The shooter Battleborn, developed by Gearbox Software, appears to have made a solid start. According to Creative Director Randy Varnell, the “early sales” are above those of the first Borderlands from 2009. For the future of Battleborn, Varnell is therefore “cautiously optimistic“.
According to the Creative Director, Borderlands was an extremely successful game for the development studio: nearly 7.8 million units of Borderlands 1 were sold.
After a “decent, solid launch” of Battleborn, user numbers are continuously increasing across all three platforms. Now, Varnell hopes that this growth will continue.
2K Games has not yet released official sales numbers for Battleborn. For reference: Borderlands from 2009 sold 2 million copies in its first two months.
It’s time: The unofficial successor to Ragnarok Online – Tree of Savior – has now officially launched in Europe!
From now on, you can download the game for free via Steam and dive right into the adventures. In the in-game shop, so-called TP packages will be available for real money. You can use TP in the game to purchase tokens. These grant you certain bonuses such as increased EXP, increased movement speed, more buffs, more gestures, and the ability to trade with other players.
The developers want to keep a close eye on the server population to react quickly when a new server is needed. For example, a new South East Asian server was recently launched with Varena. The game’s launch has led to a tripling of the player count.
The New Ragnarok
Tree of Savior can be compared to the MMO classic Ragnarok Online. From an isometric perspective, you control your anime character through colorful, hand-drawn landscapes and fight alongside your friends against legions of enemies. You can choose from a total of 80 classes with seven ranks, allowing you to create a unique hero. Some classes will only be available to you if you meet certain requirements. In the many areas and dungeons, you will also face 200 boss monsters.
In an arena, you can engage in PvP battles against other players or participate in guild wars, which can take place in open fields or even in dungeons. Even low-level heroes can join large raids, and through the matchmaking system, you’ll always find a suitable party.
If you’re looking for an MMORPG experience like the classic Ragnarok Online offered, you can give Tree of Savior a chance. Here is the free download of Tree of Savior on Steam.

Our YouTuber Refaser explains to you why second characters in Black Desert can be quite useful.
Two Characters, Double Energy
Black Desert has a lot to offer, and it is not surprising that many mechanics and game systems are not easy to understand from the start. Particularly Twinks, i.e., second and third characters, are given great importance in Black Desert. Unlike in most MMORPGs, Twinks can provide a noticeable boost and support the main character in various ways. Refaser explains to you in his video why Twinking makes sense.
The most important point is the increased energy reserve. All characters on the same server belong to a family and share a maximum energy limit – but not the current energy.
If the main character has unlocked a lot, accumulated knowledge, and completed quests, Twinks also benefit from the increased maximum energy. If your “Main” runs out of energy, you can simply switch characters – the second character will still have all the available energy and can invest it in friendship with NPCs or the various professions. Since friendship is also family-wide, the Twink’s energy directly benefits your main character!

In the MMO shooter The Division, we present the gear set “Path of the Nomad”.
The “Path of the Nomad” is considered the gear set that solo agents should keep an eye on. This set helps you stay alive longer. If you don’t have buddies around to revive you in an emergency, this gear set can be a valuable option.

What the “Path of the Nomad” can do in The Division
The complete gear set consists of a total of six individual parts. You can find these in the Dark Zone, in the PvP area of The Division. While the vendor in the safe room in DZ06 has some parts for sale, you can only find others as loot from Named enemies or from supply drops. The specific locations of all set pieces in The Division are listed here.
Each part of the “Path of the Nomad” grants you certain bonuses, such as increased damage from critical hits or protection from elites. Once you have equipped multiple individual components of the set, additional bonuses will be unlocked. With four pieces, a unique talent activates.
2 pieces: +100% Scavenger. Info on scavenging in The Division can be found here.
3 pieces: +20% health from kills.
4 pieces: Talent “Nomad”: After receiving fatal damage, health is automatically restored to full. Can only be used once every 10 minutes.
This set is controversial in the community. As the YouTuber ThePwnstar4hire says, the bonus from 3 pieces is a true lifesaver. In both PvE and PvP, health is regenerated by 20% with every kill. This allows you to stay alive longer in combat, particularly for offensive builds – or solo builds – this bonus is outstanding.
However, many agents are skeptical of the unique talent “Nomad”. Some users report that it doesn’t work in the Dark Zone, while others believe it is buggy. Even in PvE, this talent seems to react randomly: Sometimes it activates when health is low, but then again does not. According to user reports, the cooldown time has always elapsed during self-tests. The following video shows this talent in action:

It is unclear when exactly the talent intervenes. Therefore, the YouTuber ThePwnstar4hire for example has often used a medical skill to regenerate low health – however, at the same time the talent activated and the skill was wasted. Here, the YouTuber wishes for more transparency and a visual display of when the talent becomes active.
After the talent has been activated, the “Nomad” icon displays the cooldown. You can find this symbol below the grenades.
Except for this questionable talent, the “Path of the Nomad” is useful as a whole to stay alive longer. However, it is not a favorite among most agents.
Last week, the Iron Banner ended in Destiny. This monthly PvP event offers exclusive items that can only be obtained through it. A Redditor meticulously noted his drop rates during the Iron Banner and can now state: “It rained loot all week.”
Drop chances in the Iron Banner have been significantly increased
The user HeyFitzy kept track of the Iron Banner events from previous months and presented his results to the community. Back then, he came to the sober conclusion that the drop chances of the Iron Banner were so low that they might even be bugged. It was hardly worth grinding for the coveted items during the IB week – the chances were simply too poor before. According to the user, however, the situation looks completely different in the first Iron Banner after the April update: Apparently, Bungie dusted off their generosity and was generous during this week.
For his statistical survey, HeyFitzy completed 300 Iron Banner matches – the same number as in his previous studies. He played 257 games with his Titan alone. He needed 81 to reach rank 5. In the following table, you can see the drops he received with his Titan at the respective ranks. On the left, he also indicates the maps he played on.His personal drop rate is now at 22%. This is almost double that of his earlier surveys. In previous “Iron Banner” PvP events, he only received an Iron Banner drop about once every nine games.
The Reddit user definitely considers this a step in the right direction. An event that only lasts a week must pay off. And this Iron Banner was worth it for him, he can say nothing but praise.
Note: These figures are solely from community data. They are neither official nor to be considered generally applicable. However, “Hey Fitzi” has gained some fame in the community with these Iron Banner evaluations. Some even believe that his highly regarded assessments have contributed to the drop rate being so much better now.
What were your drops in the last Iron Banner?

This release window comes as a bit of a surprise, as EA already has another hot title in the shooter genre during this period: Battlefield 1 is set to release on October 21, 2016.
Andrew Wilson, CEO of EA, is taking this situation calmly. He downplays any possibility that the two games could get in each other’s way. He considers the FPS genre to be “a huge section in our industry”.
Some players would prefer a fast-paced experience in shooters, while others prefer a strategic approach. And then there are others who want both in different contexts. He is confident that they are well positioned this year with both upcoming shooters in the FPS genre.
In the upcoming shooter Battlefield 1, several weapons are already known.
Battlefield 1 will take place during World War I, which was officially confirmed after the reveal trailer last week. This trailer quickly became the most successful trailer on YouTube ever: Fans have high expectations for this shooter.
However, the community has concerns: What weapons and equipment will be available? How extensive will the selection be? After all, during World War I, there weren’t weapons like those we are used to from other shooters.
These weapons are expected to be available in Battlefield 1
The YouTuber Westie looked into these questions and created a list of weapons that he could identify from the existing footage of Battlefield. Specifically for the melee weapons, he predicts a large collection of weapons. But caution: Some of the following weapons have not been officially confirmed and should be approached with caution.

In Heroes of the Storm, the ranked games as well as the hero and team leagues are being completely revamped. What this means for you, we explain here.
The developers of Blizzard’s MOBA are dissatisfied with the existing system of ranked games and the team and hero leagues. Therefore, they have completely overhauled the entire system. The new version launches on June 15, but what exactly can we expect?
From Bronze Scrub to Grandmaster – The New League System
With the new league system, Blizzard aims to better represent the actual strengths of the players and has divided the new league into six ranks. These are:
Bronze
Silver
Gold
Platinum
Diamond
Master
Each of these ranks is further divided into individual divisions; the lower the division, the stronger the player in that rank is. For example, a player classified as Silver 3 is nominally stronger than a player who is only classified as Silver 4. The last rank, the so-called “Grandmasters”, is exempt from divisions. Grandmasters are all players who have surpassed the Master status. There are a maximum of 500 Grandmasters who are listed in a regularly updated leaderboard. So it’s a classic leaderboard.
Fairness and Transparency
To ensure that the games are not unfair, groups can only consist of players of the same rank or the next higher or lower rank. A player from the Gold rank could therefore group with all players between Silver 5 and Platinum 1. Groups consist of a maximum of 3 players, and anyone currently banned is not allowed to join a group as long as the penalty lasts.
Players earn points for winning games to rise through the ranks and divisions; however, those who cannot hold their ground lose points. If enough points are accumulated, players ascend within their rank or reach the next highest rank. Conversely, ranks and divisions can also be lost due to repeated defeats.
But don’t worry, Blizzard has implemented a mechanic that specifically alerts you in such cases when the next game will either promote you to a new tier or reset you. This way, you can either really push yourself or perhaps take a break, because who wants to play when they’re fatigued or facing another handicap when it matters?
Ranked Seasons and Rewards
The ranked games are divided into special seasons, lasting between 8 and 12 weeks. The exact length will be determined by Blizzard. The first season starts with the release of the new league structure on June 15.
The currently existing structures thus represent the pre-season, and diligent players will be assigned a corresponding rank based on their performance and receive rewards, which we will present in the table below. Additionally, there will be epic rewards in each respective season, separated by hero and team leagues. So, it’s worth playing in both leagues to reap double rewards!
Rewards from the Pre-Season
Depending on your previous status in the ranked matches, the following rewards can be earned.
Ranks
Hero League
1
· 4,000 Gold
· Elemental Wolf mount
· Epic Elemental Wolf mount
· Special portrait
5-2
· 3,500 Gold
· Elemental Wolf mount
· Epic Elemental Wolf mount
· Special portrait
10-6
· 3,000 Gold
· Elemental Wolf mount
· Epic Elemental Wolf mount
· Special portrait
20-11
· 2,500 Gold

· Special portrait
30-21
· 2,000 Gold
· Elemental Wolf mount
· Special portrait
40-31
· 1,500 Gold

In The Division, we introduce an agent with a DD build that deals over 300,000 damage per second.
The YouTuber Schorri TV presents his build in a new video: It is an offensive damage dealer that exceeds the magical threshold of 300k and is applicable in both PvE and PvP. We take a closer look at this build.
DD Build with over 300k DPS in The Division
Many agents wonder how to even reach such spheres above 300k DPS. Some are still struggling with the 200k barrier.
Schorri TV focuses not only on DPS but also on health points and armor in his DD build, allowing him to not only deal a lot of damage but also to take some bullets. This enables him to adopt an offensive play style. However, the skill power suffers significantly as a result.
The values in detail:
DPS: 304,300; Weapons: 3112
Health Points: 78,870; Stamina: 2629
Skill Power: 5,350; Electronics: 535
These weapons are used
The following weapons are in use for the DD build:
AUG A3 Para XS (Submachine gun): This weapon is the primary weapon of the YouTuber, with which he is very satisfied. It has the talents Brutal (headshot damage increased by 24.5%), Malicious (critical hit chance at full health increased by 13.5%) and Careful (eliminating a target has a chance of 23.5% to refill the magazine). Thanks to his mods, the AUG has a fire rate of 912 and a magazine size of 49. For the offensive play style, it supposedly deals “a lot of damage,” according to the YouTuber.
ACR Tactical (Assault rifle): This weapon is currently the secondary weapon with the talents Resilient (killing a target increases health points by 6%), Vindictive (damage increases based on missing health) and Receptive (distance under 10 meters to the target increases damage by 13.5%). With this weapon, he is not entirely satisfied yet, but it is indeed solid in both PvE and PvP. SPM: 968, Mag: 57.
As armor pieces, Schorri TV specifically relies on a High-End Operator Vest in PvP, which increases weapons by 820 with two mod slots, provides 1,508 armor and features the talent Ruthless.
Moreover, he plays with three gear set pieces of the Striker and two of the Watcher. This provides him with +20% enemy armor damage, +50% critical hit damage, and 30% more headshot damage. He forgoes the unique talents of the gear sets in PvP. The YouTuber does not see this combination as a set solution, but for himself, he has found it to be the best variant.
For PvE, he removes the high-end vest and instead uses the “Watcher” vest, which allows him to deal an additional 20% damage against elites. However, his PvE equipment also depends on how his squad members are equipped. He recommends: Coordinate with your buddies.
Armor and Health Points in the DD Build
High DPS values are not much use if you cannot take damage yourself and find yourself looking at the radishes from below after just a few shots. A high armor value is recommended here. Look for items and mods that grant armor bonuses so you can get close to 65%. This value can be seen in the character stats under the category “Survivability”. 65% is the maximum.
Without a high armor value, your health points will be depleted faster than you can appreciate. To boost health points, you need items that improve stamina. Only with a combination of high stamina and high health points can you take many bullets.
These are the talents and skills of the 300k DPS build in PvP
These skills are used in PvP:
First Aid with doping syringe mod
Turret with taser mod
As an individual skill the Survivor Link
Since skill power is neglected in this build, these skills are not very effective.
These are the chosen talents for PvP:
Adrenaline
Rescue Medicine
On the Move
One is None (however, this talent is still bugged until update 1.2)
You can also watch this build in the following video. Here is the video from Schorri TV:

With a Hand Cannon from Häkke, you should achieve double kills.
A Hand Cannon from Omolon must be used against Vex.
Suros provides you with a Pulse Rifle, which you should also try against Vex.
A Shotgun from Häkke aims to collect kills in the Crucible.
A Sniper Rifle from Omolon is targeting Fallen Captains.
These weapons can be ordered this week
The Scout Rifle Suros DIS-43 is almost a Sniper Rifle with high range. An interesting weapon, even if not outstanding.
Once again, the Häkke Pulse Rifle Lyudmila-D is available. An exciting choice after the April patch. The damage increased by 3%.
The PDX-41 is also a Pulse Rifle, but a completely different type, focusing more on finesse perks and can achieve high stability.
The Rocket Launcher JLB-42 is likely of little interest to anyone right now. There was just the Killer Rocket Launcher at Iron Banner and overall the various Rocket Launchers don’t differ much from each other: Kaboom is just Kaboom. With the right perks, you can be satisfied with that.
The Sniper Rifle Tamar-D is the last weapon today. Revive kills are now possible with the 22-impact sniper. Such a weapon could establish itself in the new meta.
These weapons can be picked up this week
Guardians rave about two weapons that have come with Godrolls this week. If you still have one of the two Scouts lying around, you can hit the jackpot this week.
These are the Scout Rifle Cocytus SR4. It comes with Triple, Fireball, and Hand-Laid Stock.
The Tuonela, another Scout Rifle, also comes with Triple and Fireball, as well as a Rifled Barrel for more range.
You can find the rolls for weapons from last week in this video: Arminius-D, Suros Ari-45, Suros JLB-42, Suros JLB-47, Jinguko-D.

In the MOBA Paragon, the next hero duo enters the arena. We present Grim.exe and review the changes to the supporters Muriel, Dekker, and Gadget.
G.T.F.O. – Ultimate ability with devastating effect
On Tuesday, a new character was introduced in the weekly update of the MOBA Paragon. Whether the little flying goblin Grim, who operates the massive gun on two legs, has to compensate for something or simply wants to enter the fight for Agora with high firepower is unclear.
However, he has a useful weapon in the Ranger. This can generate a temporary shield that blocks the next incoming ability. With the displacement explosion, opponents can be pushed away from him or into allied towers.

If Grim.exe gets too close to enemies or tries to escape from his range, the suppression mode of his pulse cannon causes a slow with every hit. And to finish off the wounded opponents, he activates his ultimate ability, the G.T.F.O.
Those who have a decent command of English might consider the abbreviation to be a crude insult. However, it refers to a Gyro Targeted Force Orb, a homing projectile that pierces all objects and units that are not heroes.
Muriel’s wings have been slightly trimmed
Support Buffs and Nerfs in Paragon
The three support ladies from the gas station, Dekker, Gadget, and Muriel, have undergone some changes. For example, the cooldown of Dekker’s stasis bomb is now reduced with each level up. Enemy heroes that enter its area of effect are additionally stunned.
Additionally, the safety fence, her ultimate ability, which temporarily traps enemies and allies in a small arena, lasts one second longer at levels 2 and 3. These modifications are intended to make Dekker generally more interesting for players.
Dekker – the often underestimated supporter
As for Gadget, who uses technical tricks, her sticky mine received increased damage, range, and a shorter detonation time. The flying drone was also strengthened. In return, her speed gate received a nerf.
Its duration is shorter in comparison, the cooldown is higher, and additionally, the movement speed bonus granted is lower. Therefore, allies should pay attention to pass Gadget’s speed gate in time to catch fleeing enemies and give them a proper beating.
Gadget vaguely resembles Gaige from Borderlands 2
And finally, Muriel, the metallic mascot of Paragon, who provided the most fun for support class friends. Her wings were slightly trimmed.
While the slow effect on enemy heroes from her ability “Equanimity” now increases with ascending level, “Zeal” now provides less shield for her and allies, and her ultimate ability has completely lost the additional shield for team members after it lands.
Therefore, you should ensure that you have enough mana after activation to play “Blessed Ground” to provide your team members with a protective advantage.
