One of the latest patches has hit Warriors in Hearthstone hard. A developer is now addressing the changes.
The Charge is Over!
The Warriors of Hearthstone had to endure a harsh nerf when the Warsong Commander was adjusted with the last patch. The powerful card that enabled many “1-turn kills” is now just a shadow of its former self.
Instead of granting all minions with 3 attack or less “Charge”, it now grants all minions with “Charge” +1 attack. This makes it, in the eyes of many fans, the worst card in the entire game, even worse than the Murloc and Millhouse Manastorm.
Before the nerf, the card was a guarantee for fun games – unfortunately only on the winning side.
In an interview with pcgamesn.com, Ben Brode, one of the leading developers behind the card game, has now explained the reasons for the nerf. The reasoning is simple: Charge is not a fun mechanic. “We impose many rules on ourselves. One of them has been: We have to stop giving minions Charge, as it leads to unfun player experiences.”
Cards like the Obsidian Destroyer are meant to make Warriors interesting again.
At the same time, he admits, “We’ve messed up. We’ve already nerfed the Warsong Commander once and should have done it right back then.”
Besides the Patron Warriors, Arena players also have reason to complain, as their class already has the worst win rate in the Arena, which has now dropped even further. They fear that Blizzard only cares about ranked games and is losing sight of the Arena. “Nothing could be further from the truth,” is the response.
Therefore, especially in the upcoming expansion “The Explorer’s League”, an eye has been kept on the Warriors, as they will receive some strong class cards that are meant to lead to more victories in Arena.
Electronic Arts and DICE know how to get players excited about a game. With new videos of Star Wars: Battlefront, the desire for multiplayer battles is rekindled.
Sure, the two new videos are quite short, but that doesn’t matter; you just watch them multiple times in a row. The first video shows an Imperial Scout Trooper chasing over the forest moon Endor on a speeder bike while trying to take out rebels.
In the process, the Scout Trooper zips through a kind of canyon, which gives a feeling of high speed. In the second video, however, you see the Millennium Falcon engaging in a battle high above a planet (is that Tatooine?) against Imperial TIE fighters. The evasive maneuver is known, by the way, as the “Immelmann turn.”
Both videos once again showcase the fantastic graphics of the game. And yet: the video with the speeder bike gives the impression that you are racing through the forest on rails. Is this not an open world area where you can roam freely? Are you only flying on predetermined paths? That would make sense because it surely is very difficult to avoid all the trees in a forest at high speeds.
This discussion had already occurred some time ago, to which the developers stated that there are no “rail shooter sequences.” Still, it seems in the video that you can only move within a fairly narrow “tube.” For the AT-AT walkers, DICE relies on a similar principle. You do not control the walker yourself; rather, it wanders along a predetermined path, and players can only shoot the cannons. By the way, after this news was completed, two more videos were released that we do not want to withhold from you. Featured: the AT-ST pilot and a grenade throw.
It will be exciting to see how the speeder bikes will ultimately play in the online shooter Star Wars: Battlefront when the game is released on November 19 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

In the MMO shooter Destiny there is indirectly a recommendation from Bungie. The statistician lets you look into the notebook and recommends some primary weapons for the Crucible.
Where do the primary weapons currently stand in Destiny’s Crucible after the big balance patch 2.0? Before, hand cannons were extremely powerful, especially exotic ones like Thorn dominated. At the moment it is different: Pulse rifles are considered the weapons of the hour.
They and their buddies threaten to dominate the PvP – What alternatives are there to pulse rifles?
Pulse rifles dominate the primary weapons – But what other weapons are there?
A discussion on this topic arose on reddit. The accusation: There is no alternative to pulse rifles in 6vs.6 control, the other primary weapons are simply too weak. Legendary pulse rifles are too strong.
Bungie’s chief statistician chimed in and said: While pulse rifles are strong, there are some legendary non-pulse rifles that our data shows to be very effective.
Therefore, today we want to present to you the 4 weapons he recommended. The results puzzle us as well, but … that’s just what comes out in the end. And that counts, as we all know.

Blizzard continues the class presentations and introduces Paladin, Warlock, and Death Knight in the new World of Warcraft expansion.
Strengthening the Fantasy Behind the Classes
As part of the upcoming expansion World of Warcraft: Legion, Blizzard aims to better delineate the various classes along with their different specializations. After taking a look at Priests, Mages and Hunters, Paladins, Warlocks, and Death Knights follow now.
Paladins – Away with the Light, Charge to the Front!
Holy Paladins are considered the cowards of World of Warcraft for a reason. Despite their plate armor, they typically stay far from the front lines and heal from a safe distance. With Legion, healing Paladins are brought right into the fray, as their heals become stronger when they are close to their targets. This is complemented by cone spells that require close proximity.
Into melee – Healing in the crisis area.
Not much changes for Protection Paladins. They receive a new, solid self-heal and bid farewell to “Holy Power”, otherwise, players are quite satisfied with the current gameplay.
Only Retribution Paladins still have “Holy Power” as a resource. Many of their ranged spells will have their range reduced, as the aim is to enhance the feel of a melee fighter. However, talents will allow the Paladin to throw their sword up to 30 meters and then teleport there – a nod to Tyrael from Heroes of the Storm.
Warlocks – More Demons, Less Complex Interactions
Affliction Warlocks can rejoice, as their DoTs are set to come more to the forefront. Recently, it felt more as if “fillers” like Soul Leech and Life Tap were considerably more important than the actual Damage-over-Time spells. This will be corrected by giving DoTs more significance.
The Warlock has plenty of minions in Legion.
Those dedicated to Demonology should prepare for extensive changes. Metamorphosis disappears completely, and Warlocks will now be able to summon significantly more demons than before. “Hand of Gul’dan” now consumes Soul Shards and summons up to 5 wild imps simultaneously, depending on the number of shards. The additional demons can be buffed. Overall, Demonology will likely become a “Minionmancer”, following the motto: “Go forth, my minions, show them how strong I am!”
Not much changes for Destruction Warlocks. Instead of unstable sparks, they now rely again on the good old Soul Shards, otherwise, the typical playstyle remains largely intact with only minor adjustments.
Death Knights – Few Changes, Just Refinement
All three Death Knight specializations are in a very solid state, according to Blizzard, hence there are only minimal changes, and the biggest hopes rest on the yet-to-be-released talents.
For Blood Death Knights, the main change is that Death Strike now costs Runic Power instead of Runes. This resolves the issue that occasionally hindered self-healing when a wrong rune was invested.
Plagues and Undead make up the Unholy Death Knight.
For Frost Death Knights, there is a small change to the passive bonus “Killing Machine”, which now only affects “Obliterate” (and makes this ability always a critical hit).
Unholy Death Knights receive a buff to their “Festering Strike”, which is set to become a central part of the rotation again. At the same time, talents will ensure that fallen champions can control more undead than before and summon an additional ghoul each time with “Raise Dead”.
In the death animation, my tears were directly at 750/750.
By the way: As we already assumed, it will be a “Legendary” skin that will be available for 1820 Riot Points in the shop, which corresponds to about 12€. Just between us… I believe the purchase is already a done deal for me.
However, this is not the only skin that developers RiotGames want to present to their players in the coming days. The following are also included:
Grave Lord Azir: (English name currently not known)
This skin makes Azir look much darker and, in my opinion, would have fit well into the Halloween sale.
Elderwood Hecarim: (English name currently not known)
The trickster tree among League of Legends champions. I’m already curious to see what it looks like when a tree comes rushing at you at 200 km/h after a teleport on the lane. Well then, timber.
Gragas Caskbreaker: (English name currently not known)
From the images and videos I have seen so far, he looks to me like Obelix belonging to a monk order. The “Brother Tuck” among the champions.
Ryze Whitebeard: (English name currently not known)
I don’t know who this skin reminds me of first. Gandalf? Dumbledore? Or just a crazy hippie grandpa from some movie? I’m not sure, but I quite like the concept.
Braum Lionheart: (English name currently not known)
With the red beard, this Braum skin reminds me of Erik from “The lost Vikings”. The shoulder armor, however, gives me “World of Warcraft” flashbacks. Well, both are Blizzard. All in all, a nice skin.
Varus Swiftbold: (English name currently not known)
Here, perhaps, a bow was crafted from the leftover parts of the “Trickster Tree” Hecarim and Malzahar had his hat taken away. But this shouldn’t be taken negatively. A nice alternative skin for Varus, in my opinion.
Wriggle Ward: (English name currently not known)
For those who want to customize their wards to match the new Tristana skin, there is also the little baby dragon in ward form. This only costs 640 Riot points. The other presented skins cost between 750 and 1350 Riot points, which corresponds to about 10€ to 15€.
Tonight, on Thursday, November 12th, maintenance is taking place for the MMO shooter Destiny . The servers are down, Destiny is unplayable. It is not known if a patch or update is coming.
Maintenance is scheduled for tonight. We do not know what will happen, whether anything will change in the game or not.
The schedule looks like this:
From 5:00 PM, players will no longer be able to log into Destiny.
From 6:00 PM, players will be removed from activities, the Destiny servers will be taken offline.
Around 8:00 PM, the servers are expected to be back up, and Destiny will be playable again.
Update: Maintenance is delayed by one hour. The current time is now 9:00 PM.
Update 2: Maintenance is delayed by another hour. 10:00 PM is now the target.
Update 3: The servers for PS3, PS4, Xbox One, and Xbox 360 should be back up now. Destiny should be playable again by around 9:40 PM.
Maintenance is being extended to 12:00PM PST. Thank you for your patience.
Although a patch was announced for November, it seems more likely that nothing will change in the game tonight and only “scheduled maintenance” will take place. We will keep you updated.
The Korean MMORPG Bless has now been postponed indefinitely. Some game elements may need to be fundamentally revised.
Bless Online is produced with Unreal Engine 3, featuring outstanding visual elements: The music is by Hans Zimmer, and the graphics are breathtaking. In the early stages of development, there’s hardly anything more important than trailers and great images. However, when players eventually get their hands on it, there needs to be more to offer.
Instead of Open Beta, first more focus group tests and a lot, lot of work
The game is now in its third Closed Beta in Korea, which, in a normal product cycle for an Asian MMORPG, is actually the last phase – often, there are months between the beta phases in Asia where nothing is heard about the game. However, after the third Closed Beta, it typically moves quickly towards release.
http://youtu.be/8HKTHn7EWrA
Not so with Bless. They have now pulled the emergency brake and said: We are postponing it indefinitely. Neowiz Studio wants to focus on 9 different important game elements and revise them. These include:
the server technology
the user interface
character generation
the quest system
and combat
In a smaller framework, further focus tests are to take place. The reactions to the last beta were mixed. It seems especially unclear what exactly speaks for the classic design of 2 factions and much PvP, apart from the great graphics.

The philosopher fever has gripped the Destiny community. What could the four races in Destiny represent?
In Destiny, the story is vague. One of the developers once had a long discussion with a philosopher about Destiny and said it represents a journey and hope, and somehow everything stands for something else.
The Fallen, the Hive, the Cabal, and the Vex. These are the four hostile alien races in Destiny. In recent days, there has been a discussion on reddit about what these four races could be. Let’s summarize.
The Apocalyptic Riders in a painting by Wiktor Wasnezow.
The Hive is “Disease.” This can be seen in their sickly green skins and the brown of their grave ship. Each Hive hosts a parasitic worm.
The Fallen are “Hunger.” They search everywhere for Light, starving for it, their clothing is worn and tattered, their technology comes from the remnants of other civilizations.
The Cabal are “War,” their society is war, they lack culture and religion, they are solely focused on military efficiency and are damn good at it.
The Vex are “Death.” They make no fuss about how they achieve their goals. How did they kill Praedyth? They simply outlasted him. Their most powerful weapon is not a gun or a bomb, no, they think and you cease to exist. No fuss, just death.
Theory 2: The 4 Alien Races are Possible Dystopian Future Fears
The Fallen represent a kind of “Post-apocalypse.” Civilization has fallen apart, and all that remains are criminals who murder and plunder every day.
The Cabal symbolize pure militarism and the rule of power, they are “War Lords” pursuing their own goals without any scruples. The technology makes everything even more dangerous than before.
The Vex represent uncontrolled technology, they stand for a reign of technology devoid of any humanity.
The Hive, on the other hand, could symbolize what misguided religion or a cult makes up, with all their pacts, their occult symbols, the supernatural ties – they would even have a third eye.
Theory 3: The 4 Alien Races Represent the Ninja Turtles
The Fallen are Raphael, a bit aggressive, a bit hot-headed, always driven by emotions.
The Vex are like Donatello, obsessed with knowledge and the study of nature. Also, Donatello is the artist’s favorite turtle, and the Vex are clearly Luke Smith’s favorite race.
The Cabal strongly resemble Michelangelo. Just like the Cabal, Michelangelo is roughly outlined, lacking much profile. Also, he once adopted a cat, just as the Cabal have recruited the Psions.
And the Hive are like Leonardo – the oldest race. Leonardo is also spiritual and … um … that would kind of fit.
And what do you think?
Well, a few people are pondering, and then irony comes in and takes the applause. It says something about our society.
What do you think? Are there any messages hidden in the four races in Destiny? Do they represent something? Do they symbolize typical pop culture tropes in which the human essence is distorted? Or is all this too much Cowabunga for you?

Only a few noticed the little jab at IGN from Heroes of the Storm over the weekend …
1:0 for Blizzard
Blizzard is really not a corporation that gets upset about critical reviews for long. On the one hand, because they typically do not comment on press evaluations and on the other hand, because a defensive stance usually draws more attention to a negative article.
A little bit of Anonymous is definitely present in Blizzard, at least the part with “We never forget”. The creators of Heroes of the Storm have certainly not forgotten that they received only a meager rating of 6.5/10 from IGN. The site had predicted that the game would have little chance in the MOBA market almost half a year ago.
In the trailer of the new arena mode, Blizzard has now struck back and referenced the previous rating. Make sure to look closely at second 50.

So, did you see it? Here is the image in question:
Also visible in the image: Overwatch heroine Tracer. And the fact that “the Butcher” is holding the 6.5 shield is surely no coincidence. The English “to butcher smh.” (to butcher something) also refers to poor reviews.
This is how they want to adjust the balance. In PvE, the Kinetics and Berserkers are the strongest damage dealers, while in PvP the Archer is leading. Here, careful actions will be taken, strengthening the support classes as well.
At the moment, the Allods team, supported by Obsidian, is focusing on the gameplay, wanting to make it more accessible and enjoyable. The planned cosmetic changes, such as more hairstyles, will have to wait a bit. However, there will still be new costumes and headgear.
And they also want to revise the “Divine Form”. Currently, it comes late, and there seems to be too little reason to slip into the divine form once you have it.
A major patch arrives on November 12th
Tomorrow, on November 12th, the next major content patch for Skyforge is coming: “Journey of the Divine.” The maintenance works will take place from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Invasions will now have “Avatars”, basically end bosses;
With the latest card chaos, Hearthstone brings back the Blackrock Mountain for its grand showdown.
Two Lords and Only One Mountain
The card chaos from 11.11.2015 sees the return of the popular “Showdown in Blackrock Mountain” to Hearthstone. For 4 days, players can step into the shoes of the two raid bosses “Ragnaros” or “Nefarian” to make the molten core hot against each other.
It seems that nothing has changed in the decks of the two bosses. They are still pre-made, and while Nefarian relies on a rush deck, Ragnaros has to prolong the fight, as his most powerful abilities only come into play after he has survived a few rounds and lost the hammer in his hand.
Ragnaros and Nefarian once again want to know who the winner is.
Remember that the first victory in this mode is rewarded with a classic card pack again. The cards from it either complement your collection or can be disenchanted at will to serve as material for other cards.
The military MMO Armored Warfare is giving away a special edition T-62 tank in honor of “Veterans Day.”
Today, “Veterans Day” is celebrated in several countries. In the U.S., November 11th commemorates the armistice in World War I and its victims. Today, the meaning of the day has changed, and in the U.S., people honor all war veterans from all wars in which the U.S. has been involved (cynics add: and that’s quite a lot).
Armored Warfare takes this day as an opportunity to also honor veterans. Every player who logs in by November 22 will receive a “T-62 Veteran tank.” This is basically the well-known and popular Tier 3 tank but with a slightly different skin. It still needs to be leveled up, even if you already have a T-62 at 100%.
To receive the tank, nothing more needs to be done, just log in by the 22nd and turn the key in the new tank.

Blizzard reveals how Hunters and Mages will change in the upcoming expansion for World of Warcraft!
The Damage Dealers in Focus
Since BlizzCon, Blizzard has been regularly releasing new information about the class changes that are coming with the upcoming expansion “Legion” for World of Warcraft. The main goal for the developers is to strengthen the identity of the class and highlight the differences between the various specializations more clearly. After we already reported on the Priest, Hunters and Mages have now been newly added, and we will briefly highlight their most exciting changes here.
The Hunter – With Pet, Without Pet, and in Melee Combat
Veteran Hunters can look forward to a completely new playstyle with Legion, as the Survival Hunter will become a pure melee class. Together with their pet, they will engage enemies in close combat, can pull themselves towards their enemy, and as the only specialization can still set traps.
For Beast Mastery, relatively little is changing, as they were already in a solid position with WoD. However, Hunters will be given a bit more control over their companions, and they should be able to issue more commands than before. As a new core ability, they will receive “Alpha Beast,” which will become a staple part of the typical rotation.
They were also generally satisfied with the role of the Marksman Hunter. The theme of the lone ranger lurking in the shadows and taking out its prey has already been well captured, but should be improved with small adjustments. In the future, “Arcane Shot” will generate focus, which the other abilities will then consume. By the way, the Marksman Hunter does not have a companion – because he is a loner.
Mages – Fire, Frost, Time, and Space
For Mages, it is challenging to make the differences between the various specializations even clearer. The spellcasters already have three very solid specializations, whose playstyles differ significantly, which is why there will only be slight adjustments.
Arcane Mages will receive a new mastery that increases their maximum mana. This should allow the distorters of time and space to manage their mana more easily and not become “burned out” in combat within seconds due to small mistakes. However, the fundamental mechanics will remain unchanged.
The same “problem” exists for Fire Mages; here, too, there are fundamentally only changes to one ability. “Ignite” will be completely redesigned and now grants the Mage a buff that increases the critical strike chance by 100% for a full 10 seconds. This will make it even easier to deal devastating fire pillars and gigantic pyroblasts to the enemies’ faces.
Finally, the Frost Mage will be slimmed down a bit and will lose Frostfire Bolt, as Blizzard believes that it “does not capture the fantasy of the class” – actually, a mixture of frost and fire should fall to the ground as a pool. The spell in the rotation will be replaced by “Frozen Orb,” which flies towards the opponent and continuously deals frost damage to all nearby enemies.
For more on the changes to the classes and current news from BlizzCon, you can find it on our World of Warcraft page.

As Design Director Niklas Feargus explains in an interview, stormtroopers could take off their helmets. Despite the rigid uniform regulations, it would be possible to customize one’s character. The uniform is still meant to serve the original template.
However, the standardized uniform is not enough for some fans, and they are vocally discussing it on Reddit. “This ruins the game for me. Don’t do that!” is a common sentiment. Such decisions would completely undermine the Star Wars feel. A few modifications to the uniform would already be the best of both worlds. After all, the idea of being a stormtrooper is to be a faceless cog in the great imperial machine.
Others, of course the minority, are happy about the option, that would humanize the stormtroopers and not paint them in such black and white terms.

The upcoming MMORPG Black Desert has three regions, but some countries like Turkey, Brazil, or Australia are not included in any of them. An IP block keeps them away.
This wasn’t actually a big deal, as it was assumed that the western version of Black Desert would then be the “international version.” One with English language that anyone could play who is not based in Asia or Russia.
But this assumption turned out to be false. Because the “North America and Europe” version of Black Desert has also received an IP block. This now excludes people from Turkey, South America, Africa, Australia, and from many other regions of the world from playing any version of Black Desert. They are not happy about this, feeling once again left out by the MMO world and (quote) “treated like crap.”
Petition started, publisher points to the developer Pearl Abyss
A petition has been started on Change.org. It is directed at the developer Pearl Abyss and at Daum. They are demanding the removal of the IP block from the western version. They have now collected 2750 signatures. Here is the link to the petition.
At publisher Daum, which distributes the game in South Korea and here in the West, they say: We cannot change anything about this. That is up to the developers, who hold the rights. We cannot serve these markets, that would be a conflict of interest with the developer Pearl Abyss.
They have suggested that they want to explore these target markets in other ways. Daum is not aware of these plans and cannot comment on them.

The Russian development studio Battlestate Games is currently working on a mix of MMORPG and online shooter. Escape from Tarkov (PC) is primarily focused on realism.
Set in modern times, two private armies fight for an escape route in the Russian city of Tarkov. Players create a character in a typical RPG fashion and join one of the armies. As a soldier, you will encounter enemies from the opposing army in the winding alleys of the city. This means that PvP battles are a regular occurrence.
However, there are other dangers in the city, as things are not right there. During your escape from the city, you will uncover a secret.
Pure Realism
So there are not only battles planned, but also a story. You will pursue this through quests. During this, you delve deeper into the city. There, you will also encounter forces from the UN and the Russian military. Especially during the fights, the developers want to emphasize realism. Each weapon fires differently, and the ballistics are calculated realistically.
But not only your skill matters, as you improve your hero through more than 100 skills. These not only revolve around weapon abilities, but you also need to be good at administering first aid. Even minor wounds can spread and become dangerous.
Fatigue also plays a role, and your hero can die from radiation poisoning. During your explorations through the city of Tarkov, you will find many objects and resources that you can use for trading. This way, you can improve your weapons yourself. It is even possible to set up your own trading posts.
On November 24, the developers of the MMO want to show the first gameplay footage, before a closed beta is set to start in early 2016. The release of Escape from Tarkov is planned for 2016. You can register for the beta on the official website: www.escapefromtarkov.com.

I wish you all a beautiful Wednesday! BlizzCon 2015 is behind us, and although I am completely thrilled by most of the announcements, and even a new WoW hype has gripped me, there were a few personal disappointments for me. This is once again “complaining about little things”, but especially because a game like Overwatch moves me and has sparked my anticipation, the small setbacks are often the hardest.
Since 2014, many new heroes have been introduced, such as Lúcio.
There can never be enough heroes! – But. 21.
Maybe my “More and more!” expectation for games has only grown further in recent years, but the final number of 21 heroes at the release of Overwatch disappoints me a bit. When the game was announced at the last BlizzCon, 12 or 13 heroes were already known (I believe). At that time, it was said that many more would come and there would be virtually no upper limit in sight. Personally, I just find the ratio a bit unpleasant. With 12 players in each match, I find a selection of 21 heroes relatively low, even though they can be picked multiple times.
Diversity is lacking various heroes
The heroes are diverse and colorful – but are 21 really enough?
Overwatch as a cheerful, colorful project, in which all players, all nations, and every way of life should somehow be represented, requires an enormously large selection of characters. Although the existing heroes are great and all very different (By the Nether, I already love D.Va), there is still a tremendous amount missing to truly represent almost every player group.
The unresolved question of DLCs
Allegedly, there are no plans for DLCs yet – however, Cortyn doubts that.
What bothers me further is the question of DLCs. Overwatch will cost 40€, or 60€. In response to the reasonable question of whether there will be more heroes after the launch and how these will come into the game, one evasively replies that “they are currently only focused on the 21 starting heroes. Nothing has been planned for the future.”
If I have learned one thing in recent years, it is that developers always plan several years into the future. I am very sure that they already have some concrete ideas for the time “after the launch” and are just waiting to see if and how to sell the subsequent heroes to the players.
Don’t get me wrong, I have already fallen in love with the game and will probably play it so extensively that Schuhmann will again tap annoyingly on his watch when my articles are not finished on time. But the unresolved questions that are deliberately dodged unsettle me a bit. How do you feel about this topic?

In an online shooter, every player wants to play with a highly individual character, which is why Star Wars: Battlefront offers many options in this regard.
A new video of the shooter shows the great variety you will have when creating your hero. At the beginning, you have the choice of 18 faces on the side of the Rebels, including men and women. Additionally, you can unlock more as time goes on. You will need to level up and spend credits to purchase a new appearance. Almost all human faces cost 1,700 credits. For alien heads, you must first level up to at least Rank 40 and invest 17,000 credits.
New human faces are unlocked up to Rank 30. On the Imperial side, things look a bit different, as Imperial soldiers always wear helmets that cover their entire faces. Scout Troopers and Shadow Troopers must also be unlocked. These are available from Ranks 40 and 50 respectively and cost 17,000 credits each. Over time, you will receive a lot of new options to change the appearance of your character.
In addition, Electronic Arts released a new video showing the villain Darth Vader in action. The “hero” is extremely powerful and can deflect blaster shots with his lightsaber and pull enemies towards him with the Force, only to slice them neatly with the lightsaber.
To become such a hero character in Star Wars: Battlefront, you must collect Power-Ups on the battlefields. Among these are also options to become a hero temporarily. However, these are not invincible, as a recently released video showed where Luke Skywalker was trampled into mush by an AT-AT…You can watch it here: Star Wars Battlefront: The 5 best videos from the beta.

In Destiny on November 11, new weapons and test weapons will be available at Banshee-44. What’s new on weapons day?
Not at 11:11, but at 10:00 on Wednesday the new weapons day started at Banshee-44. Guardians must position themselves well to get their hands on his treasures. At reputation rank 2, he distributes legendary class weapons, at reputation rank 3, exotics, and at reputation rank 5, there’s “The First Curse.”
To get there and also access the various weapon deliveries, players need to walk with his test weapons.
The test weapons available this week
The fusion rifle Omolon Test FR 1 must be used against Vex Minotaurs.
The hand cannons Omolon Test HC1 aim to prove themselves against Vex targets.
The pulse rifle SUROS TSP-10 is deployed by the Guardian of Worlds against Hive targets.
The shotgun Häkke Test-A also targets Hive.
The sniper rifle Omolon Test RR1 wants to challenge captains of the Fallen.
And these legendary weapons can be ordered this week in Destiny
With the fusion rifle Thesan FR4, you get a real treasure with excellent values in impact and stability. Perks like Lightweight/Accelerated Coils or TrueSight are also included. The Thesan FR4 is generally regarded as truly excellent. Where Warlocks annoy everyone with the grandeur of the Susanoon.
The pulse rifle Herja-D is also on Banshee-44’s menu. The weapon is overshadowed by currently very strong other pulse rifles like Nirwen’s Mercy or Lyudmila. However, if you pull it automatically or with other strong perks, it can also be a decent weapon.
Speaking of the devil: This week also available from Banshee-44 is the pulse rifle Lyudmila-D. It is considered quite a hitter if you have luck with the perks.
And there’s a third pulse rifle available this week, the SUROS PDX-45. Right now, pulse rifles are “THE primary weapons” in the Crucible. The SUROS PDX-45 has weak impact and low range, but has a rather high fire rate, good stability, and excellent reload speed. It even comes with full auto. This is the first time he sells the PDX-45. Many recommend to definitely take action.
The last weapon that can be ordered today is the shotgun Strongbow-D. With decent values in stability and impact. With perks like Full Auto/Spraying and Playing or Close and/or Personal, it’s definitely a force.
http://youtu.be/sUYv2A_rdwo
And these are the weapons you should redeem this week
Banshee-44 brings different offerings for each weapon every week. Here we present rolls of weapons that seem extraordinary. You should take advantage of these.
The highlight today is an Eirene RR4 with a quite strong roll. It has Roulette, Fixer Draw, and Unyielding. Especially the Roulette is important, as it can make the Eirene deadly even with a body shot in the Crucible.
The Lydumila-D is available this week with Headseeker and Full Auto. Hardcore experts on reddit swear by roll 2 with Crowd Control and Balance Adjustment, which solves the weapon’s recoil problem.
In this Imgur gallery of a reddit user, you can find the current rolls for Herja-D, Lydumila-D, and Eirene RR4 in Destiny – feel free to click through.
Here are some hot info about the class halls, dungeons, and a way to bypass the language barrier in World of Warcraft: Legion.
The Class Halls – Hub for Quests and Artifacts
During BlizzCon, many details about the class halls were revealed, which got a bit overshadowed by the major announcements. They want to move away from the traditional principle of daily missions. Players should have the freedom to decide when to tackle which tasks, and this will be enabled by the class halls.
However, the random aspect will not be completely removed. Each time you log in, there is a chance that certain emissaries will be present in the class hall and have tasks for you. If you’ve been away for several days, a whole bunch of them could pile up. If you ignore the petitioners long enough, they will eventually move on (and probably try it with another class).
Otherwise, the class hall is also the place where you can upgrade your artifact weapon and customize it to your liking, as long as you fulfill the necessary challenges. Blizzard likely wants to prevent all paladins from running around with “the one” Ashbringer – so there are over 25 different variations in form and color to ensure sufficient variety.
Dungeons Gain Historical Significance
In Warlords of Draenor, instances were somewhat neglected. Sure, they were fun, beautifully designed, and sometimes had exciting ideas in battles, but they felt disconnected from the rest of the world. They were rarely a part of the main story, mostly just a side show. With Legion, this is supposed to change drastically!
Almost all quest zones lead into an instance throughout the storyline, and that is where the respective area concludes. They want to offer more than just a series of enemy hordes and give each instance a narrative thread and include plenty of information about the inhabitants of the shattered islands.
The Magistrix invites to a tea party – and the heroes arrive as uninvited guests.
When asked by a fan if scenarios like in Mists of Pandaria would return, the developers denied it but hinted at similar things. “In some cases, we are trying new things. For example, there is a dungeon where the Grand Magistrix of the Nightborne has invited high guests. The players sneak in and infiltrate the party. While I can’t provide details, this will play noticeably differently than anything we’ve done with a dungeon before.”
The End of the Language Barrier?
Demon hunters can speak demonic – and currently still cross-faction.
Demon hunters are currently the only class that can communicate with each other in the current build of Legion, and that across factions. They can speak the language “demonic,” which can be understood by the demon hunters of the other faction. This is a novelty, as it is generally not possible to communicate directly with the other faction (it is even part of the user agreement we click away each time). Whether this possibility will make it beyond the internal alpha version of the game remains to be seen.
