The sandbox MMO Trove is becoming a great success for Trion Worlds.
On July 9, the MMO Trove officially launched. Just two days later, developer Trion Worlds announced that they would need to increase server capacity due to the huge influx of players. And this, even though the servers had already been scaled up during the beta because so many wanted to play.
A patch was quickly released that was meant to increase performance and reduce wait times. In the meantime, the developers have started new servers in both the USA and Europe. Whether this will be enough remains to be seen, as Trion Worlds is closely monitoring the load of these new worlds.
Looking at the posts in the official forum, it seems that Trion Worlds will need to start additional servers, as there are still queues where players have to wait up to an hour to finally get started.
Trove is incredibly popular
The popularity of the MMO is not only evident from the queues and the increased server capacity. Since its launch on July 9, Trove has become one of the most popular games on Steam and is quickly climbing up the top 10 games with the most concurrent users. The trend is even pointing towards Trove being the game that finds new players the fastest.
The sandbox of Trove, where you can change and build entire worlds similar to Minecraft, seems to be very well received by gamers – probably because, in contrast to the competition, it offers plenty of MMO and RPG elements. Thus, Trion Worlds seems to have struck gold with this MMORPG.
Want to learn more about the surprise hit? Then check out our extensive Trove special about the launch. This way, you might see why it is often described as a mix of World of Warcraft and Minecraft.

A new week begins in the MMO shooter Destiny . On Tuesday, July 14th, a new weekly Nightfall strike is determined, a new configuration begins in the Prison of Elders, and Variks offers new rewards.
After the turbulent weeks around E3 and unfortunate interviews, a kind of summer calm has settled in Destiny now – much like the rest of the Western world; one could also speak of a summer lull.
The last expansion was 2 months ago, the next is still 2 months ahead. But not everyone is done with everything yet and is just blasting through the game content out of boredom with the Destiny blues on their lips. There are also some latecomers who still have something ahead of them.
What Destiny players, regardless of their mood, will find this week is explained in our article about the Weekly Reset on July 14th.
Weekly Nightfall Strike goes to the Nexus
Sekrion awaits the Guardians. It is a No-Burn Nightfall, we haven’t had that in a while. Modifiers are Grounded, Brawler, and Angry. Guardian melee damage is increased, in the air you take more damage, and the enemies come without stopping.
Weekly Heroic Strike features Valus Ta’aurc.
The Cabal, affectionately called Rockets McDickface, is back again. Cerberus Vae III is his home. The modifier is Grounded – so no jumping around. With Solar Burn in recent weeks, the once tough opponent was a joke; let’s see how the Guardians find him without modifiers. A while ago, Bungie took away some of his health points.
Everything about the Prison of Elders starting from the week of July 14th
In the 32-entry, Kaliks Reborn awaits
Last week, he was responsible for the Guardians cleaning the floor of the 34 arena with their faces; now he is causing chaos in the 32 Prison of Elders: Kaliks Reborn – here is a guide to him
1. Cabal/Specialist – double special weapon damage 2. Fallen/Switch – enemies deal increased melee damage 3. Fallen/Airborne – players deal more damage when in the air 4. Fallen/Exposure – Guardian shields are increased but do not regenerate 5. Fallen/Grounded – players take more damage when in the air
Vex/Airborne – Guardians deal increased damage when in the air
Hive/Grounded – Guardians take increased damage when in the air
Vex – Void-Burn
Hive/Angry – the enemies cannot be stopped even by effect hits
Hive/Exposure – Guardian shields are reinforced but do not regenerate
And once again Skolas
The new Skolas, who can no longer have a burn, has proven to be relatively disappointing thus far. In 4 IDs, there were only two different configurations of the modifiers (Small Arms/Lightswitch and Brawler/Juggler); today, this is what’s on:
Catapult and Angry – so there is indeed a different configuration.
And these are waves 1 – 5.
Hive – Exposure/Brawler – Guardian shields are reinforced but do not regenerate/your melee damage is increased
Vex – Ground/Airborne – Guardians deal more damage in the air but take much more
Cabal – Catapult/Arc-Burn – grenade cooldown is lower, arc damage is significantly increased
Fallen – Specialist/Juggler – special weapons deal double damage, enemies do not drop ammo for the weapon with which they were defeated
Fallen – Rinnsal/Primary – abilities have an increased cooldown, damage with primary weapons is significantly increased
What does Variks have this week?
Variks is selling the sniper rifle and gloves this week.
The Hunter variant has 106 intellect.
The Warlocks have 114 discipline.
The Titans 53 discipline and 53 strength.
The gloves have a chance to generate Orbs of Light when the wearer kills Fallen in melee. They increase grenade throw distance and decrease reloading speed on special weapons.
Tips, tricks, and guides?
Throughout the day, we will showcase videos of successful and interesting runs through this week’s challenges. You can pick up a few tips there. Not that you need it or anything.
Traditionally, Nexxoss and his crew take on the Nightfall. He does this in German with a slight Swiss accent, calm, relaxed, with Fatebringer, Efrideet’s Spear, and the weapon whose name shall not be spoken. The guide goes through the passages step by step, giving tips on safe spots and general behavior. Very worth watching.

A developer has created a neural network that automatically develops new HearthStone cards. Some results are complete nonsense, while other cards appear quite usable.
New Hearthstone Cards Coming Out
Maybe a bit too strong – but certainly conceivable as Legendary.
Blizzard announced some time ago that they want to support and further develop HearthStone for at least 10 years. Fans have already come up with expansions in the past and created their own cards that could appear in a future addon in some form or another. On reddit, user scfdivine has now created a neural network – a program that evaluates existing HearthStone cards and creates new cards based on the insights. In the meantime, it even delivers quite usable results that one could well imagine in an upcoming expansion.
However, the first creations are quite amusing, as adjustments were still being made. Nothing is better than Blood Manos, a 6/0 minion (which is immediately dead) for 6 mana and the menacing text: “ALL minions.” But the Dark Cill Mage also causes burnt synapses: “Choose a minion and become a minion with a random one in your hand.” Or to put it in German: Yeah, right.

One thing is certain: This week, Playstation 4 and XBox One will experience new maintenance works. Keep your fingers crossed that this goes better than three weeks ago when the servers were down for 4 hours each to implement the Playstation patch which caused quite a stir: A 15 gigabyte update was scheduled, something went wrong there. In contrast, XBox One players faced only a 500 MB update.
The Xbox One starts off with the server downtime: On Tuesday, the 14th of July, at 12:00 PM, the servers will be taken down for maintenance.
The Playstation 4 is scheduled for a day later: It is expected to take place on Wednesday, the 15th of July, starting at 12:00 PM.
The megaservers for PC and Mac will not require maintenance this week.

In the MMO shooter Destiny , Bungie presents the best video every week. We add our own favorites.
This week Bungie’s letter to the community, the Weekly Update, has been pushed back by a day, and they presented the new quest system. However, there was a curiosity from the Crucible that made it to the start on time: What happened here?, one wonders after watching Bungie’s video of the week.

Blizzard’s card game HearthStone uses many graphics that were already seen in the WoW Trading Card Game. However, some card images are cropped at the edges – and some funny details remain hidden.
Of the fearful Yeti and the caught Swamp Crocolisk
Many images from the card game HearthStone actually tell a completely different story than what is suggested in the game. To understand what is really happening in the pictures, it is necessary to know the full graphics. Corey_T from 2p.com has made the effort to search through Blizzard’s art gallery to uncover the 10 most interesting secrets. We have a small selection here, along with some other images that are also worth mentioning.
The Yeti in a panicked escape. Not quite as brave as thought.
Everyone knows and loves the Chillwind Yeti, the all-rounder with 4/5 for only 4 mana. But who would have thought that our furry friend is actually on the run and thus looks significantly less heroic?
Interesting encounter in 3… 2… 1…
Another card is the Swamp Crocolisk, a solid spotter with 3/6 for 5 mana. But very few know about the small detail that is hidden on the card. On its head sits a small gnome who is unknowingly reeling it in. In the game, this is hard to recognize because the resolution is too low to really see all the details. From now on, the rule for you is: What has been seen cannot be unseen! In such moments, one wishes that the cards had long animations. The green giant would surely make a nice mount…
The cheap Paladin weapon Justice of Light is probably known to every player. But wait – in the full image, a dwarf is holding the weapon. And he is not a Paladin, but a Priest.
The Squire, a summoned card of the Silver Hand Knight, is actually not such a brave hero. In the original version, he is cooking a soup, after which his original graphic is named.
Lastly, we have the Terror Corsair, who looks really threatening on his card. The truth is different: The old man is walking bent with pain and is about to be beaten up by a small gnome.
In the game a tank. In the picture rather not very stable.
All the images shown can be viewed in the Blizzard Gallery, which contains many truly successful artworks.

Trion Worlds has secured the Korean MMORPG with strong hack-and-slash elements Devilian and presented it in a one-hour stream.
Hopefully not a bad omen…
ArcheAge was Trion Worlds’ first attempt to release a Korean MMORPG in the West.
If one is a little mischievous, one must smile at the first few minutes of the stream. The old “ArcheAge” crew is there with the community manager and the producer who oversaw Trion Worlds’ last Korean import, who have since left the project.
And problems arise immediately: The first few minutes in the “new” era, the in-game sounds are clearly too loud. You go into the menu, turn it down, and nothing changes: still too loud. Then it becomes apparent that a trailer is still open in the background and blaring at full volume. “This is starting off well!”, might say some malicious tongues.
Hack’n Slash meets MMORPG: The best of both worlds?
In the stream, they are keen to highlight the advantages of the game. It essentially combines the feature depth, social contacts, and close connection to the character of an MMORPG with the action combat of a “hack-and-slash”, the fast mouse movements, and so on. There’s supposedly a lot to do, they say.
http://youtu.be/z9w0eAk-LQ8
Also, CEO Scott Hartsman is supposedly a big fan of the title, having already spent numerous hours in Devilian, it is said.
The Classes of Devilian
In the stream, before getting into gameplay, they present the four classes:
The class “Evoker” is a sorceress with spectacular effects. She can pull enemies towards her and then “bomb” them.
The Shadowhunter relies on a whip and shurikens. He is a very dynamic class with a high skill ceiling, with one of his talent trees also geared towards stealth.
The class “Cannoneer” is cute but deadly. She relies on a run-and-gun gameplay style and requires good aiming and awareness from the player.
The Berserker is a classic melee fighter with two swords, gathering enemies around him and then dealing with them.
Further classes are planned for the future.
from left: Berserker, Cannoneer, Evoker, and Shadowhunter
A selection of information that one could pick up from the stream:
The characters all have their own “Devil” mode, in which they use different skills, which is developed separately from the actual char.
There will be no holy trinity in Devilian.
Currently, there is no controller support, but they will work on it.
Events, such as fighting a world boss, will come with a kind of leaderboard: the more one does, the more one gets; just “running through and tagging” is thus not an option.
The game is set to be released in English, French, and German.
In the coming weeks, we are told, we will learn much more about the individual systems and classes, which were often only briefly mentioned in the stream – such as the talisman system, PvP, titles, or achievements. A lot of information was obtained in that one-hour stream, and there were no further issues after the initial sound problem. Maybe it is indeed a good omen?
Blizzard has released some background information with the announcement of the Overwatch character Soldier 76. These provide not only insights into the new fighter but also into the entire organization Overwatch.
Once a hero of the people, now its scourge?
Jack Morrison was for over two decades the leader of Overwatch, an organization that acted as a kind of global police force, establishing peace and prosperity in all countries and protecting people from the destruction caused by the Omnic crisis. Overwatch gave a whole generation the certainty that true heroes still exist and that everyone fundamentally wants to do good. Especially Morrison was seen as the figurehead of the organization and was admired, loved, and idolized by all.
Soldier 76 breaks into military complexes repeatedly.
However, after Overwatch became unnecessary and suspicions of corruption and illegal experiments increased, the organization was ultimately dissolved. Morrison is said to have been buried 6 years ago, but no one has ever seen his corpse. It also seems remarkable that the former leader has the same body measurements as the current troublemaker Soldier 76, who blasts his way through banks and military labs.
Blizzard fulfills promises
The lore is hardly told in the game – but rather on the internet.
At last year’s BlizzCon, it was mentioned that the lore of Overwatch is primarily told outside the game. The complete article about Jack Morrison, which is actually modeled after a rather propaganda-laden newspaper article, should not be missed, as it reveals much about the new universe of Blizzard. We learn details about the Omnic crisis, the problems of Overwatch, and also about the status that the heroes still hold for the people of the Earth today.You can find the complete article here.

The Military MMO World of Warships will virtually grant the Japanese battleship Yamato the glory that the super-ship was denied in real life. The ship was like the biblical Goliath, but there was not just one David, but 400.
It was as if Japan forged the ultimate samurai sword at a time when all others were producing machine guns, as stated in the trailer for the Yamato in World of Warships.
The actual “super battleship Yamato” was 17 stories high, weighed 72,000 tons, and would have been the ultimate super weapon on the seven seas, had it not arrived too late and ended up in an ocean that already knew aircraft carriers and submarines. Warfare had changed and the giant was shot to pieces by 400 airplanes over hours.
http://youtu.be/easH-OklZ-Y
In World of Warships, the Yamato hopefully faces a more glorious fate. The ship is at the very end of the Japanese tech trees, at Tier X. And comparisons are not only being made to Goliath but also to Godzilla.

Gaming should be fun, and it usually is. Especially in online gaming, this feeling can be intensified as the hobby is shared with others. However, where many others and sometimes unknown individuals are involved, there are often dangers lurking, and these should not be ignored.
Thomas-Gabriel Rüdiger – Gamecrime Expert
Deviant actions in online games are summarized under the term “Gamecrime”. A topic we would like to address on Mein-MMO.de.
Especially in the digital age, insults and similar offenses are part of everyday life. After all, one is anonymous, so what could happen, most think. Is that really the case? And who is protecting the children?
We had the opportunity to sit down with criminologist, gamecrime expert, and active gamer Thomas-Gabriel Rüdiger. In the first part of the interview series, you can expect an insight into the problems of online gaming. These issues are more relevant than ever and likely concern each of us.
In the producer letter, several events were announced, both in-game and in the real world. A new summer festival will begin in mid-August, for which “more modest swimwear” has been prepared this time. The two-year anniversary will also be celebrated in August, with a 16-hour live stream scheduled for August 22.
Then Square Enix will also be in Cologne with Final Fantasy XIV at Gamescom, where players will be able to face off against the Primals and grab T-shirts.
The Eorzea Café in Tokyo is doing so well, that they are opening a branch designed like Limsa Lominsa, at least for a month. And there are new plushies in the Carbuncle style. Pre-orders for thewill start soon.

The hack and slash Marvel Heroes 2015 is probably the game that is closest to Blizzard’s Diablo 3. The next heroes and further plans for 2015 have now been revealed.
It’s a bit strange that there is so little buzz about Marvel Heroes 2015 in our regions, while many complain that too little is happening in Blizzard’s Diablo 3. If you could explain to Diablo fans: There is a game that is quite similar to Diablo 3, but it has 48 heroes and something is always happening, probably more players would become curious.
The Diablo similarities in Marvel Heroes 2015 are not coincidental, after all, the mastermind of the first two Diablo titles, David Brevik, is behind the game, which has been gradually upgraded and polished after a botched launch. At Comic-Con in San Diego, the next six heroes were introduced, which are:
Number 49 Ant-Man (fitting to the upcoming Marvel movie)
Number 50 War-Machine (which they promise does not play like Iron Man)
from left: War Machine, Kitty Pride, Doc Doom, the Winter Soldier, Iron Fist, Blade, She-Hulk (She-Hulk, the Winter Soldier, and Doctor Doom are already in the game)
And then in no particular order 51-54:
Blade (Yep, the vampire killer)
Kitty Pride
Iron Fist
Black Cat
The latest addition to Marvel Heroes: Doctor Doom.
For number 55, players will be allowed to vote from a selection of heroes, including
Nick Fury
The Green Goblin
Magik
Wasp
Spider-Man (Miles Morales)
Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan)

Developer Gazillion has also revealed a series of new team-up heroes, which are basically companions:
Carnage
Agent Venom
X-Force Archangel
Spider-Gwen
A lot of new costumes will also be available. And even new activities for the game world have been revealed. They want to bring the “Limbo” in the new event “Mythic Mayhem” and establish the danger zone of the X-Men as a new playground. For that, players should be able to find CDs that contain their own scenarios.
The next major storyline is the Secret Wars. The shapeshifter Skrulls, an alien race, take on the identity of some superheroes and high-ranking officials.
And $25,000 can also be won
Currently, there is a special promotion going on in Marvel Heroes: Players can find one of five “Vibranium” tickets and redeem it for $5,000 (real money, not game money). The inspiration for the promotion comes from the “golden tickets” from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

In the MMO shooter Destiny three players have now found the craziest method to spend their time in the “Prison of Elders”.
The balls in the Tower of Destiny are sometimes called “busy measures for bored” Guardians, a kind of IKEA ball paradise when the little ones need something to keep them entertained. But not many probably know that there is also a kind of “ball” in the Prison of Elders, which Guardians have affectionately dubbed “our radish”.
Well, the prison ball is not round and it is quite fussy when it comes to the main property of a ball: “I really like to roll”, but you can actually get it to the treasury. A group of Guardians has achieved this now and they captured it with a fantastic video. There is Gjallarhorn billiards, rebounds, achievements, triumph – all the good stuff.

The community of the MOBA League of Legends is considered toxic, particularly aggressive and unpleasant. However, the actions of a 17-year-old went far beyond that.
“The anonymity of the internet protects against any prosecution” – or so thought a 17-year-old who now has to serve his prison sentence after harassing women in both virtual and real life.
Boredom as a motive for harassing women
A 17-year-old has now been sentenced to 16 months in prison by a Canadian court after terrorizing over two dozen girls and young women on the internet. Especially female LoL players were among his victims. When the women did not accept his friend requests or otherwise ignored him, he began his harassment: He called the local police and claimed to have taken the girl’s family hostage or to have killed someone in their home. At the same time, he published the women’s addresses and contact information online and repeatedly called them late at night.
In a particularly severe case, police were called to the same girl’s house twice and took family members into custody at gunpoint.
Viewers alert the police
All these incidents came to a sudden end after he held an eight-hour stream during which he “swatted” numerous players (sending SWAT teams to their homes). The viewers of the stream reported his behavior to the police, who were able to track him down.
The young man has now been convicted in 23 cases, including oddities such as a bomb threat at Disneyland in 2014.
He must serve the first 8 months of his sentence in prison, while the second half is on probation. During this entire time, he is prohibited from using the internet.
Personal opinion: For a brief moment, I felt pity for the young man, because I thought: “He is 17, he is doing stupid, stupid pranks.” But then I saw the video of how ruthless he is: He lies to a police officer and tells him how he broke into a house, booby-trapped the property with bombs, has the family with 3 children in his control, and executes one of them every hour if they do not comply with his demands – all under the name of another person who has done absolutely nothing wrong.
The terror that this man has caused for the affected individuals when their apartment is stormed by police officers can hardly be fully understood by anyone. I can only hope that he learns from his punishment – and that the victims have not suffered long-term damage.
Take a look at the video yourselves and judge then. The conversation with the police officer begins at 6:25.
http://youtu.be/uPTJXbB_QcA?t=6m20s
The title image was taken from Eurogamer, which got it from the police, and they used this blurring effect to protect the identity of the 17-year-old.
After no trailer but rather large parts of scenes were shown at Comic Con, the big disappointment came: Only attendees of the convention get to see the clips. However, there is another, cheerful message: The trailer has a rough date!
When does the trailer for the WoW movie come out?
Until we finally see Durotan and Draka in action, at least 3 months will still pass.
Attendees of this year’s Comic Con were able to get an impression of the first scenes of the Warcraft movie, all others were left in the dark. Filming of the shown images was unfortunately not permitted, and seemingly – except for very short snippets – no illegal recordings made it outside.
The urging of fans was great, as they had expected an official trailer release. Now director Duncan Jones announced via Twitter that the trailer will be released in November of this year. Those eagerly waiting for the movie will still have to wait over 3 months to finally get their own impression. Should any new details be revealed earlier, we will of course keep you updated.
Blood was spilt for this… “Today has all been about SDCC. Now I want to let you know the trailer will finally release to ALL in November”
About a month ago, Blizzard’s MOBA Heroes of the Storm officially released. To give newcomers a little kickstart, we’ve put together this guide for you. It covers some basic tips for HotS and also shows you how you can achieve early success with 4 easy-to-play heroes.
The Ingame Tutorial of Heroes of the Storm
The tutorial teaches all the basics and grants gold. Be sure to play it!
For the further text, I assume that you have played the ingame tutorial. It addresses the fundamental questions regarding controls and game objectives, explains the behavior of minions, and provides information about the layout of the map. Additionally, playing the tutorial grants quite a bit of gold, so even MOBA veterans should click through the introductory cards!
A Few Basic Information About the Guide
A Great Emphasis Was Placed on Simplicity
Please note that I do not claim all-encompassing accuracy here. There are certainly many other ways to play the heroes presented in Heroes of the Storm – however, I consider the presented variants to be particularly beginner-friendly.
Raynor is easy to play and very cheap, but relatively not much fun.
For this reason, I also placed great emphasis on the talent selection of the heroes, choosing only talents that grant a passive bonus or an improvement to existing abilities. Almost every character can still choose some “active” abilities, but since this requires even more attention, I didn’t want to overwhelm newcomers.
Not All Characters Are Cheap
I will present a character for each class, but not all of them are cheap and therefore easy to obtain.
One costs 10,000 gold coins, while another only costs 2,000. I selected the characters based solely on whether they are easy to learn and, above all, whether they provide subjective enjoyment. At the same time, I made sure to recommend heroes to you who offer something left to learn and improve.
For this reason, I did not take Raynor for the assassins. Although he is cheap and super easy to learn, he offers little improvement potential and is, in my view, not much fun in Heroes of the Storm. At the very beginning of your career, you will inevitably have to rely on the heroes that are in the current free rotation, and they change weekly. Alternatively, heroes can, of course, be purchased with real money if one wants to play them immediately.

In the Free2Play MMORPG Rift the future is looked at with confidence and the past with pride. On July 15, it continues.
“Log in and play! We offer the best Free2Play experience, are better than ever before, and have a lot of stuff you don’t know yet,” said a visibly proud Game Director Christopher Junior to the US site Massively Overpowered in an interview. He was asked what he would like to say to Rift fans who have not logged in for a while.
The Henchman System is well received by developers and players
They knew they had a hit when they caught developers playing with the henchmen during their lunch break.
http://youtu.be/4tjfHIg_og8
Massive expansion achieved, but it could be the last in this form
Overall, they are proud at Rift to have created such a massive expansion like “Nightmare Tide” for Free2Play. Since then, they haven’t been slacking off, but have made some important, though rather unspectacular changes like a new wardrobe system or a new form of instant adventures.
Whether they plan another “big expansion all at once” like Nightmare Tide remains open in the conversation. They hint that this also has disadvantages, bringing everything at once. This holds back game content that is already finished. In the coming weeks, they want to talk about “other forms of the game content cycle.” For 2015, they have the new base class still planned.
On July 15, Wandering Nightmares will arrive
With July 15, a new story begins in Rift anyway: “Wandering Nightmares” is coming, Patch 3.3. This brings the first part of the “Nightmare Saga“, as well as dimension crafting, instant adventures on the Tarken Glacier, and a new, easier introduction mode for the raid.

The fantasy MMORPG Neverwinter is celebrating the summer festival in July.
As soon as the anniversary event in June is over, the next one begins: Summer is celebrated joyfully and exuberantly in Neverwinter. The multi-week event “Summer Festival” runs until July 30 at 7 PM our time. There are daily quests, some contests, and especially a lot of cosmetic items that radiate summer joy.
You have to bring livestock to the stable, fend off attacking trolls, you can splash each other in a water battle or collect flowers. All this to have fun and earn points, with which you can buy all sorts of trinkets like a water horse, a riding pig, or a dragon piñata :
Game-wise, the guild strongholds, which are coming this year, will be the focus for Neverwinter for the rest of 2015. A lot has been planned and the world is being flooded with blog posts about the individual sections. Additionally, they want to properly supply the Xbox One version with content to get it up to speed with the PC version as quickly as possible.
In the MMO shooter Destiny, fusion rifles are among the special weapons. We present to you 6 of the best and explain how you can reshape them to possess the ultimate fusion rifle in Destiny.
All good things come in threes. After our reshaping guides for shotguns and pulse rifles in House of Wolves, we will this time focus on a sadly somewhat forgotten weapon class: fusion rifles.
A warning upfront: Since the last weapon balance patch in Destiny fusion rifles are no longer the first choice for using special weapons in the Crucible. The last patch made the projectile spread larger.
This means you have to be very close to the enemy for as many projectiles as possible to hit the target. However, this often puts you within the range of shotguns, which, unlike fusion rifles, have no wind-up time. A duel you cannot win. For this reason, almost no one uses fusion rifles in the competitive multiplayer mode anymore.
But don’t throw in the towel. We will show you how to improve the relevant stats on your fusion rifles, master the spread, and achieve one-hit kills at longer distances.
Consider it a future investment, should Bungie tweak things again with the next big expansion “The Taken King” and strengthen fusion rifles. Furthermore, all weapons and perks shown here are also fully recommended in PVE mode.
With the House of Wolves, the possibility has also been introduced to re-roll every new weapon from the add-on with the gunmaster. This was previously reserved only for the Iron Banner weapons. To be able to reforge weapons, you need the following materials:
