The strongest bosses in Dark Souls 1, 2, and 3 according to lore in the power ranking

Christos Tsogos 4. February 2025 Reading time 7 minutes

The Dark Souls series is primarily known for its brutally difficult bosses, and there are dozens of them spread across three games. But which of them is actually the strongest? MeinMMO’s Souls expert Christos Tsogos examines the big bosses and assigns them ranks.

How is this ranking determined? This ranking does not consider only the pure gameplay of the bosses, meaning how difficult a boss is to defeat. Instead, it evaluates how powerful the bosses are according to their lore and story.

Even though Dark Souls is mainly known for its gameplay, there is a huge world behind the games, full of story that fans gather in absurdly large databases. The ranking is derived from descriptions of items, dialogues with NPCs, and quests.

Who is writing this?

MeinMMO author Christos Tsogos has been exploring the lore of Dark Souls since the release of the first part. Through fan theories, lore videos, and summaries of all the information, Christos has acquired a wealth of background knowledge. Enough to be able to determine which of the bosses from Dark Souls 1, 2, and 3 are truly powerful.

In doing so, only their theoretical strengths as well as their power and influence in the world are taken into account. Our ranking invites you to engage in discussions. If you disagree, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.

Important about the ranking: The list also includes the bosses from the DLCs. To avoid overwhelming the list, I have limited it to the 10 strongest with a detailed Top 5.

These are the strongest:

Rank 10: Black Dragon Kalameet (Dark Souls 1)
Rank 9: Midir (Dark Souls 3)
Rank 8: Chaos Creature of Izalith (Dark Souls 1)
Rank 7: Nameless King (Dark Souls 3)
Rank 6: Burnt White King (Dark Souls 2)

[toc]

Rank 5: Manus, Father of the Abyss (Dark Souls 1)

Sources:

Manus is a central boss and character in the events of the DLC of Dark Souls 1. He is responsible for Oolacile falling victim to the abyss. He corrupted all the inhabitants and the surrounding land with the power of darkness and resides in the deepest part of the city.

Once, Manus was a human sorcerer. In fact, his remains rested in a grave beneath Oolacile, but the sorcerers of the city found and eventually tortured him. The reason for this is not entirely clear. Theories suggest that he was one of the dwarf princes who received a piece of the Dark Soul from the stealthy dwarf.

Autoplay

How powerful Manus is becomes clear in his handling of the Dark Soul: in his rage he unleashed the abyss and has thereby destroyed a large part of Lordran. Despite the strongest knights of Gwyn, such as Gough and Artorias, Manus could not be defeated and continued to conquer the surrounding area.

The abyss is endless, and although Manus could not control it, he could at least summon it as a weapon and pose a threat to the gods, who otherwise gaze fearlessly upon their enemies. Without the protagonist from Dark Souls 1, the abyss would have spread further.

His strengths lie primarily in sorcery, but Manus can also deal powerful blows in melee combat. Additionally, he has the ability to warp space and time to bring the protagonist into the past, which is rather unusual, but speaks for his power.

A merchant in Diablo 4 was considered a tip for the best items, now players say: He is useless

Nicole Wakulczyk 4. February 2025 Reading time 3 minutes

In the previous season, a vendor in Diablo 4 was the best place for Uniques. Even Mythic Uniques could drop there. But with Season 7, Blizzard changed something, and many players agree: The vendor is now almost useless.

Which vendor is being discussed? It is about the Curiosities Vendor in Diablo 4, where you can “gamble” loot for collected Obolusses. You select items from a specific category, which can then have a rarity from common to unique when they drop.

At the Torment levels, ancestral items are the pinnacle for strong builds. These “bequeathed” items always have at least one GA (greater affix) and an item power of 800. This means: better affix rolls and more power, making them the best items in the game. You will find them as Legendary, Uniques and Mythic Uniques.

In Season 6, the Curiosities Vendor was one of the best places for the coveted items, and Diablo expert Raxxanterax feared a nerf of the “Gambler”. With the new Season 7, this has indeed happened.

Start video

Why is the vendor now useless? On Reddit, Entire_Helicopter_94 shares their experiences with the Curiosities Vendor and shows what they got for 2,000 Obolusses. Thanks to the ashes from the “seasonal blessing,” they had a 40% higher chance to receive a second item per purchase. It is not apparent at what difficulty level they are playing.

The screenshot shows that they “gambled” a total of 32 amulets, including:

3 Legendary
15 yellow items
14 blue items

We also blew our Obolusses and gambled for rings until the inventory was full. We got 4 legendary rings – but none of them were “bequeathed” items:

Players Suggest: Better Buy Keys and Open Silent Chests

What does the community say? In the comments, users are discussing the vendor in the current season. Waramp considers the Obolusses to be “useless” – they just need to take a few steps into a “green zone” and return with three Legendary items. Cptn_Canada feels similarly: “If I teleport to a green zone and make a coffee in the meantime, there will already be several Legendary items lying around.”

The green zone refers to the seasonal “head-hunting” zones, where there are tasks for the Whispering Tree and a high monster density. They resemble Helltides and are also referred to by the community as “Witchtides.”

Some players recommend investing the Obolusses in “Whispering Keys” instead of spending them on random items. These keys cost 10 Obolusses each and open “Silent Chests” in the open world – especially in the Witchtides it is worth it. By the way, the chests also drop keys for the new “Root Horte” dungeons besides loot.

In addition, strangelyliteral writes: “Whispering Keys are actually so good now, it’s insane.” And heartbroken_nerd gives the tip: “There are tons of Silent Chests in the head-hunting zones – just keep opening them constantly.” Others point out that you can also use the Obolusses in the undercity of Kurast.

What exactly was nerfed? In the patch notes for patch 2.1.0, which came with Season 7 on January 21, 2025, the developers wrote about the vendor: “A bug was fixed that caused unique and mythic unique items to be available from the Curiosities Vendor more often than intended.”

In the Reddit thread, players report that they wished for a middle ground here. Rentahamster comments: “Last season, [the gambling] was too strong; this season it is too weak. It should be somewhere in the middle. Additionally, players need more meaningful ways to spend their Obolusses.”

For many players, the new Witchtides are currently the best way to quickly acquire loot. However, some feel overwhelmed by the enormous amount of drops, while others are pleased with the yield for this very reason.

A new type of attack makes the battles in Monster Hunter Wilds much better than in its predecessors

Alexander Mehrwald 4. February 2025 Reading time 3 minutes

Monster Hunter Wilds does a lot of things differently than previous entries in the Monster Hunter series. One innovation even makes the battles against the monsters even better than before, according to MeinMMO editor Alexander.

In Monster Hunter Wilds, there will be some new features that set the new title apart from its predecessors. In addition to major changes, such as the seamless world or the ability to take two weapons on the hunt, there are also some that are less noticeable at first.

One of these changes even makes the battles feel even better than in all previous installments – at least that’s how MeinMMO editor Alexander feels.

Who is writing this? MeinMMO editor Alexander Schürlein has logged over 1,000 hours as a monster hunter. Over the years, he has played countless titles on various consoles and prefers to head out on hunts with dual blades.

What innovation is being discussed? We are referring to the two new weapon actions “Powerclash” and “Offset-Attack”. Both provide hunters with new options to react to attacks from the monsters:

Powerclash: With the Powerclash counter, you can initiate a duel between you and your opponent by deflecting certain attacks. If you win the encounter, you push it back and knock it off balance, allowing you to attack without interruption.
Offset-Attack: If you attack a charging monster at the same time in mid-movement with a specific attack, your powers collide and throw your opponent back. This attack can be combined with other powerful attacks.

Both require good timing, which takes practice. However, once mastered, they provide not only powerful opportunities to deal high damage and give the team windows in which they can attack undisturbed – but they also feel extremely satisfying.

Start video

Autoplay

Much cooler and more satisfying than before

Why do these attacks make battles better? On the official homepage, you can watch an example of each weapon action using the Great Sword. In my opinion, they not only enhance the flow of battle but also look visually impressive. They pull the player deeper into the fight and give the feeling of being more powerful.

Both make the battles cinematic and highlight the hunter’s skills more than ever before. For example, how hunters can throw themselves at an opponent with the Great Sword during a Powerclash and push them back with all their strength just feels good.

You can seamlessly weave these new weapon actions into your flow, making them feel smoother and more coherent than, for example, the options given by the Clutch Claw or Wirebugs in the predecessors. This additionally provides a targeted way to knock monsters off balance, which was only partially available in the predecessors (via Reddit).

Because the precise timing for the weapon actions needs to be learned, it becomes even more enjoyable when it finally clicks and you successfully fend off these gigantic beasts.

Unfortunately, not all weapons have an Offset-Attack. Only the Great Sword, Morphing Axe, Hammer, Hunting Horn, Insect Glaive, and Heavy Bowgun offer this capability. Nevertheless, in my opinion, the new weapon actions make the battles feel much smoother, more coherent, and cooler than in the predecessors.

The creators of my GotY 2025 are supposed to be working on an open-world game for The Lord of the Rings – just the thought makes me excited

I’m not alone in this: Many fans on Reddit are celebrating these innovations as much as I am. BZRKRBUCK69 shares in their thread via Reddit: “Whoever came up with the idea for Offset Attacks deserves a damn raise! They make the hunt 3x more satisfying and cinematic. Honestly, I love it immensely.”

Below, there are many voices expressing similar sentiments:

SirDenali writes via Reddit: “The mechanics are very well implemented with most weapons to keep the feel unique.”
HairyTecolote86 comments via Reddit: “The cool thing about the HH Offset is that you can hold it for a while. This makes it easier to land the Offset just before the monster hits you.”
AbyssWankerArtorias expresses via Reddit: “It is SOOO much better than Wirebug attacks or Clutch Claw attacks. It flows smoothly and just fits into the battle flow.”

Alongside the new weapon actions, Monster Hunter Wilds also brings a range of other innovations that make this installment better than its predecessors. Which features stand out the most in our opinion, you can read here: 8 new features that make Monster Hunter Wilds better than its predecessors

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2: 5 Reasons why every RPG fan should definitely play it

Karsten Scholz 4. February 2025 Reading time 5 minutes

With Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, a special and wonderfully idiosyncratic role-playing game will be released on February 4, 2025. So special and idiosyncratic that every RPG fan should take a look.

The first Kingdom Come: Deliverance from 2018 is already known for being very idiosyncratic, cumbersome, but also special and fascinating. The successor Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, which will be released on February 4, 2025 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series, retains this uniqueness but also improves many criticisms from part 1.

Below, we highlight the special features of the role-playing game developed by Warhorse Studios and give you five reasons why every genre fan should give Heinrich’s new adventure a chance. If you have already purchased and are looking for helpful tips and tricks, check out our guide overview for Kingdom Come Deliverance 2.

Reason 1: Oh, beautiful Bohemia

Even the approximately 16 square kilometers of the first part were considered to be among the best open worlds in gaming history despite the numerous bugs at launch. KCD2 builds on this with its two vast regions. Rarely have such naturally designed forests and forest floors been seen in a game. But every area of the open world feels coherent and authentically built.

For example, each property has a latrine or an improvised toilet. Fortresses, villages, mills, and such are placed in a plausible way. In the second region, Kuttenberg awaits you with the largest city in the still young RPG series, featuring a church, a winery, and more in the nearby surroundings.

WoW has brought back Shadowlands and you haven’t noticed

The fact that you can immerse yourself so beautifully in 15th-century Bohemia is due to two reasons: 1) Thanks to the first-person perspective, you are always right in the middle. 2) The games give you the space to enjoy the dense forests and wide fields or meadows. You won’t find quest givers, events, and job opportunities at every corner.

Instead, you let your horse follow the road for a while automatically, while you gaze into the distance, enjoy the atmosphere, and look for exciting places worth temporarily breaking off the beaten path. Even these rides alone bring happiness.

WoW now has a new, super rare mount that you can get upset about every year

Cortyn 4. February 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

A short event is back in World of Warcraft and is enticing players with a new mount. However, it is quite rare – and your chances are limited.

Every year, the “Love is in the Air” event takes place in World of Warcraft – always around Valentine’s Day. This means not only a lot of romance but also a lot of frustration for mount collectors when the coveted Pink Love Rocket (“Heartbreaker X-45”) doesn’t drop once again. To make the frustration even worse, Blizzard has now thrown another mount into the mix.

Update: Only the first loot box per day and per account has any chance for the mount. The article has been adjusted accordingly.

Start video

3 absurde Bugs, die in WoW passiert sind

Autoplay

What kind of mount is this? New in 2025 is the “Love Witch’s Sweeper.” This is a curved, flying broom in purple-pink color. The design of the broom resembles the racing brooms used in Harry Potter during Quidditch – it has a seat and additional handles. To avoid being stopped by a city guard in Dornogal at night, there’s even a spotlight at the front.

Where does the mount drop? The Love Witch’s Sweeper drops, just like the Heartbreaker X-45, in Shadowfang Keep from the event boss. You can simply sign up in the dungeon finder and will be teleported to the boss as soon as a group is found.

The boss fight is extremely easy and usually completed in less than a minute.

From the boss, if your character has already reached the maximum level, you’ll receive a “Heart-shaped Box” that can contain all sorts of interesting rewards. However, the drop chance is quite low.

Note that only the first of these boxes per day has a chance for the mount. This is also stated in the box’s tooltip.

Can you farm this endlessly? No. Per day, you only have one single attempt, no matter how many characters you have. Only the first box per day and per account can contain the mount. Therefore, it’s not beneficial to farm the boss with multiple characters as was the case in previous years.

This will definitely save you time – however, your chances are also drastically limited.

After that, your next chance will be in 2026 – and we might already be in the next expansion Midnight – together with housing.

At a tournament in Pokémon TCG Pocket, a new deck made it to the Top 8 seven times

Johanna 4. February 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

Within the community of Pokémon TCG Pocket, personal tournaments are held regularly, sometimes with a bit of prize money at stake. At a recent tournament, it quickly became clear: the Darkrai ex deck is becoming the new meta deck.

What kind of tournament is this? On February 1, 2025, the YouTubers HooglandiaPocket and spragels Pocket hosted a tournament centered around the new expansion in Pokémon TCG Pocket: Collision of Space and Time.

Prizes totaling $1,500 could be won. After the tournament, the top 8 and their decks were showcased on reddit. Out of the top 8 players, 7 used Darkrai in their decks; of those, 6 were playing with Magnezone in their deck.

New Deck Dominates the Meta

What kind of deck is this? It is a Darkrai-ex-Magnezone deck. The following cards can be used to play this deck:

2x Darkrai ex
2x Magnemite
2x Magneton
2x Magnezone
1x Giant Cloak
2x Shardrago
2x Poké Ball
1x Pokémon Communication
1x Cyrus
2x Professor’s Research
2x Leaf
1x Sabrina

What makes the deck so strong? At first, the combination of Darkrai and Magnezone may seem somewhat arbitrary. After all, they both have different energies (Darkness and Electric), but their synergy is of immense advantage.

Magneton can supply itself with Electric Energy using its ability Volt Charge. Once Magneton is charged with enough energy, it can evolve into Magnezone, dealing a powerful 110 damage with its attack Thunder Fang.

The Darkness Energy can be used for Darkrai ex. The ability Nightmare Aura of Darkrai ex adds 20 damage points to the opponent’s active Pokémon for each energy attached to Darkrai ex. Thus, once Darkrai has collected 3 energies, it reaches a total of 100 damage points per turn.

Since Darkrai ex and Magnezone take some time to be fully ready to attack, Shardrago can remain in the active position in the meantime. Although it cannot attack as it requires Fire and Water energy, it serves as a good tank. When attacked, it deals 20 damage to the opponent due to its ability Rough Skin.

Additionally, there is a bonus that is active during the short event.

On February 4, 2025, you can look forward to Kanivanha in the Spotlight Hour. This Pokémon from Generation 3 has the types Dark and Water and evolves into Tohaido.

When does the Spotlight Hour start? The Spotlight Hour always starts at 6:00 PM and lasts for 60 minutes. This means it ends at 7:00 PM.

What bonuses are active? If you evolve Pokémon during the event, you will receive double the amount of experience points for this. The bonus applies to all Pokémon you evolve.

By using Lucky Eggs, you can further increase the bonus and potentially receive quadruple the amount.

Can you catch Shiny Kanivanha? Yes. If you’re lucky, you may find and catch Kanivanha in its Shiny form.

Is the Spotlight Hour worth it? If you plan to use Kanivanha and its evolution for raids or in the battle league, you might want to reconsider. Unfortunately, these Pokémon are not suitable for either area of use.

If you are missing this Shiny or are actively collecting experience points, then this event could be interesting for you in that regard. The chance of getting a Shiny is not increased, but due to the high number of spawns, you have better chances than usual.

Diablo 4 Patch Notes: Patch 2.1.1 is released today, makes headhunting in Season 7 much better

Benedict Grothaus 4. February 2025 Reading time 10 minutes

Blizzard plans the first major patch for Season 7 of Diablo 4. After some hotfixes, patch 2.1.1 is on the way, bringing more ravens, altars, and bounties into the season of witch power.

What feature is this about?

Forgotten altars can be found randomly in dungeons during Season 7. Through them, you will learn four of the new witch powers that you cannot acquire otherwise.
These powers are important for the strongest builds in Season 7.
However, the altars are currently extremely rare. Fans have a few methods to access the altars faster, but there are reports from frequent players who have not found any at all.

This is what Blizzard is changing: In the patch notes for patch 2.1.1, Blizzard writes that the spawn rate of forgotten altars will be increased (via Blizzard). However, the exact increase is not specified.

Additionally, a bug is being fixed that caused forgotten altars not to appear in certain scenarios where they should have been present. Once again, Blizzard is not being specific.

Even if you were able to find altars, it can still happen that you do not learn the related witch power. This bug is also being fixed. Patch 2.1.1 will be released on Tuesday, February 4, 2025. You can find the complete German patch notes on page 2.

The new patch also improves some of the new features. Among other things, there will be more ravens in the headhunting zones. The ravens are considered one of the best features of Season 7 by players. In addition, there are two new bounties and the UI for tracking them will be improved.

Blizzard is also working on the armory, the new feature for everyone in Season 7. It should be more accessible in cities, will have a button for easily deleting loadouts, and the UI will receive some improvements.

However, the changes to the ravens are particularly well received. Players are now urgently wishing for a blacksmith in the headhunting zones to be able to get rid of their loot faster.

New Event in Diablo 4 Offers 100% Bonus XP and Cosmetics

Cortyn 4. February 2025 Reading time 3 minutes

In Diablo 4 there is a new event coming up. During the “Lunar Awakening,” there are plenty of bonuses that you should definitely take advantage of.

Season 7 was released on January 21, 2025, and exactly two weeks later, the first event in the hellish monster hunt is here – the Lunar Awakening. Inspired by typical “Chinese New Year events,” you will receive big bonuses and can earn some new rewards during the event.

Update, February 4, 2025: The article was originally published in January 2024. We have revised and updated it for the current event.

What kind of event is this? During the “Lunar Awakening” event, you will collect a new currency called “Favor of the Ancestors.” You can exchange this currency for different rewards at Ying-Yue, the head of the Lunar Night Market, in the north of Ked Bardu.

Additionally, the shrines across Sanctuary will be replaced with Lunar Shrines during the event. You can identify them from afar because the shrines have a new look – in the form of a dragon. Activating the shrines and subsequently killing monsters will grant you the Favor of the Ancestors over time, which you can then spend on cosmetic rewards with NPC Ying-Yue.

In total, there are 10 prestige levels where you can secure rewards – including cosmetics and a “Magnificent Spark” for crafting Mythic Uniques. But it doesn’t stop there: Once you’ve reached all levels, you can earn even more rewards with the “Infinite Gifts of the Ancestors.” So it’s worth farming even after reaching the last level.

What do the new shrines provide? When you activate the temporary Lunar Shrines, you not only receive a special shrine power as usual but also a random additional bonus. The bonuses include:

Artillery Shrine: Skills have a chance to summon a holy bomb.
Shockwave Shrine: Each explosion triggers a scattering bombardment.
Channeling Shrine: Attack speed is increased, and you have an increased chance to reset cooldowns.
Connection Shrine: Powerful, shocking strikes frequently leap from the character to nearby enemies.
Greed Shrine: There’s a chance to summon a treasure goblin. As long as the shrine is active, a treasure goblin will be summoned from slain enemies.
Deadly Shrine: There’s a chance to instantly kill affected monsters and instill fear in nearby enemies. This also applies to elite enemies, but not to bosses or other players.
Protection Shrine: You reflect all damage taken. The reflected damage scales with level and difficulty.

How do you get the bonus XP? In addition to the effects mentioned above, active shrines grant an XP bonus of 100% (multiplicative). To activate this, you just need to interact with a shrine as soon as you see it. With a click, all bonuses will be active for a period of 2 minutes.

In the upper right corner, you can see a “reputation worsens” or “reputation improves” indicator with certain actions or selected dialog options. When this symbol flashes, your reputation will improve or worsen by five points.

Reputation with merchants: Each merchant has its own reputation with you. You positively influence this by conducting a successful trade. If you annoy the merchant, for example, by being impatient during bargaining with your offered prices, your reputation will drop.

A good reputation

Advantages of a good reputation

If your reputation is in the higher ranks, meaning with a golden or light orange smiley, you can enjoy the following advantages:

With merchants, you get better prices, and during bargaining, they are willing to deviate more from the original price.
NPCs will be friendlier towards Heinrich.
Possible crimes will be forgiven more quickly by NPCs or guards. If you are caught committing a crime, you have the opportunity to persuade the NPC or guard not to impose a penalty on you.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Guides: All Tips and Tricks Overview

The creators of my GotY 2025 are supposed to be working on an open-world game for The Lord of the Rings – just the thought makes me excited

How to increase your reputation

Complete quests: Carry out tasks and quests diligently for NPCs.
Dialog options: If you have gathered enough persuasion skill, it is more likely that you will succeed with positive dialog options, such as Impress or Persuade.
Killing: As banal as it sounds, sometimes it helps to eliminate the NPC that is lowering your reputation.
Pilgrimages: You can initiate a pilgrimage with a priest. The cleric will send you to a chapel where he has to pray.
Indulgence shrines: At indulgence shrines, you can show remorse by paying groschen.

Important: Pilgrimages and indulgence shrines only increase your reputation but do not absolve you of penalties for crimes you have committed.

Sometimes you can also cheat your way into a good reputation. For example, by simply telling an NPC that you have completed something for him.

Skills for reputation enhancement: If you acquire these skills, you will receive benefits for your reputation:

Charming Man (Main Skill): Heinrich’s reputation will increase by 10 percent more with each reputation boost.
Memorable (Main Skill): Positive and negative changes in Heinrich’s reputation have a higher impact and can reach more groups of people.
Village Hero (Main Skill): If Heinrich achieves a reputation over 60 points in a region, he receives a bonus of 2 to strength, agility, vitality, and persuasion there.
Opportunist (Main Skill): If Heinrich’s reputation worsens, it will now drop by 10 percent less.

Disadvantages of a bad reputation

If your reputation is symbolized by red or dark orange smileys, you have the following disadvantages:

Merchants offer you worse prices or may not want to trade with you at all. If you recently annoyed one during bargaining, he will be reluctant to bargain again.
Sleep spots may be withdrawn from you or will not be offered to you in the future.
If you have a very bad reputation with important story NPCs, you may receive a game-over screen.

How to lower your reputation

Crimes: Committing crimes is never a good idea, at least if you get caught.
Quests: If you do not fulfill quests as the NPCs would like, or fail to complete a quest, for example, due to a time limit, your reputation will worsen.
Dialog options: If you choose mean dialog options, NPCs will be outraged. Moreover, it does not go over well if you lack enough persuasion skill for a dialog option. A failure automatically results in a reputation drop.

The reputation system is essential for surviving as Heinrich in medieval Bohemia. Fortunately, a small change has been made in the second part that makes the game significantly less frustrating: Kingdom Come Deliverance 2: A small improvement makes the RPG significantly less frustrating than its predecessor

Path of Exile 2 punishes players too harshly, preventing them from taking more risks

Cedric Holmeier 3. February 2025 Reading time 3 minutes

Path of Exile 2 wanted to provide players with a tougher experience, but gamers are not very enthusiastic about the current game mechanics.

How is death punished? In Path of Exile 2, the death of a character is not without consequences. Each time your character is killed in the endgame of Path of Exile 2, it loses 10% of the experience points of the current level. Depending on the character’s level, this can result in several hours of grinding.

Additionally, players also lose all items that were dropped but not picked up yet, as well as all items that could have potentially dropped. This is because after the character’s death, you are no longer allowed to enter the map, except for boss fights against the toughest boss in the game, Arbiter of Ash.

This system does not create excitement among players, as a new post in the community shows.

Here you can see the cinematic intro of Path of Exile 2:

Just Grinding

What bothers gamers? Players of Path of Exile 2 apparently just want to grind and are not interested in the challenging obstacles. This is shown in a new post on Reddit by user Dawgin420.

He criticizes the endgame of PoE2, which with its penalties for the death of your character prevents anyone from daring to face challenges. Instead, players would prefer to run risk-free maps where they can just slay monsters without the danger of getting killed.

This is further fueled by the fact that players can sell maps like Breachstones for good money, instead of risking being killed on the map and losing the content in the form of items and currency.

In practice, this means that adventurers often set aside content with higher difficulty and gamers just opt for mindless and safe grinding. Thus, the developers’ goal to make Path of Exile 2 more difficult seems to not be achieved, as players apparently do not like to play these contents.

Is this just a single opinion? No, under the post on Reddit, many other players also share similar views. User lazypanda1 adds to the post on Reddit with his experience:

That’s true. The current system creates a conflict between challenge and risk/reward.
Regarding the challenge, it is most enjoyable when your build is just strong enough to take on the content. Not too weak that you get killed right away, but not too strong that you trivialize the content. […]

The loss of the reward almost always leads to a negative experience. The lower the risk, the more fun is expected, leading to a linear curve that progresses from negative to positive. […] This means that if you want to maximize the fun of the reward, you have to minimize the risk, which means you trivialize the content and thereby eliminate any semblance of challenge.
lazypanda1 on Reddit

User Flying_Mage also does not find this good on Reddit: “That is pretty much the main reason why the punishment for death is bad. It encourages you to create easy and diluted content instead of juicy and dangerous. And that is boring. And the absolutely last thing a developer wants to do is make their game boring. […]”

User BigSmols, however, sees it differently on Reddit: “I honestly feel like there isn’t much ‘challenging’ endgame content. I either get randomly one-shotted or nuke the enemies. Don’t get me wrong, this game is technically much more challenging than most other ARPGs, but the endgame and the campaign feel like two different games.”

In the campaign, there are fewer penalties for death because you can simply re-enter the map. Path of Exile 2 is still in Early Access, so the developers can adjust and improve the mechanics at this point. Another mechanic also needs to change according to the players: If a mechanic stays in Path of Exile 2, there will be a big problem at release, the community believes

A Marvel hero is actually just the companion of a dangerous villain, yet it is one of Stan Lee’s favorite characters

Niko Hernes 3. February 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

Stan Lee is still the face of Marvel for many fans. This is also due to his appearances in movies. One of his favorite heroes has only appeared once and is more of a sidekick to a powerful villain. However, he holds significant importance for Stan Lee.

Which character is being referred to? One of Stan Lee’s favorite characters is the Silver Surfer. He made his first appearance in December 1965 in Fantastic Four No. 48. He is the herald of Galactus, one of the most powerful villains in the Marvel Universe.

Originally, the Silver Surfer was a mortal named Norrin Radd from the utopian planet Zenn-La. When Galactus threatened to consume the planet, Norrin Radd sacrificed himself to save his family and his people. He offered to find planets for him to consume. Galactus agreed, bestowed cosmic power upon him, and thus created the Silver Surfer.

For over 100 years, he served Galactus until he came to Earth. There, he also regularly acted as a hero. The Silver Surfer is a tragic figure who means no harm. He is fascinated by other planets, ways of life, and people. This is also one of the aspects that Stan Lee appreciates about the character.

The character looked so heroic and so noble.

What does Stan Lee think of the Silver Surfer? In an older interview (via YouTube), Stan Lee explained how the Silver Surfer actually came into being. Jack Kirby, one of the most important artists in Marvel’s history, drew the herald of Galactus because he thought a large and powerful being like Galactus needed a companion to find planets for him.

Stan Lee liked the idea and loved the design. He said of the Silver Surfer: The character looked so heroic and so noble and so dramatic. Stan Lee recounts that he then named him and made him a philosophical observer of the world and the universe.

In the interview, he explains that he let him speak in Shakespearean and biblical language. For Stan Lee, the Silver Surfer became a voice for his feelings and views. Stan Lee wanted to use the character as a philosophical figure who grappled with questions like why humans fight when they live on such a wonderful planet.

He also says in the interview that children loved the character.

Has the Silver Surfer appeared in any films? He has not appeared in the large MCU so far. In the Fox film Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer from 2007, he was one of the main characters. He also made appearances in various animated series and even had his own short series in 1998.

In the upcoming film The Fantastic Four: First Steps, a Silver Surfer is also expected to appear again, as Galactus is set to function as the villain once more. However, this is not the Silver Surfer you know. In this film, the Silver Surfer is the character Shalla-Bal, who also hails from the planet Zenn-La. The new Fantastic Four movie is expected to be released in the USA on July 25, 2025. Stan Lee also had a favorite in the DC universe: Marvel legend Stan Lee had a favorite character from DC that hardly anyone knows

A ‘leak’ reveals the release date of GTA 6 – Here’s what it’s about

Dariusz Müller 3. February 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

A dealer has sparked some discussions in the GTA community, as he openly revealed a release date for the highly anticipated action game.

What was this “leak” about? Last week, the Uruguayan dealer “XUruguay” listed September 17 as the release date for GTA 6 on his website. Shortly after, there were various posts on social networks.

Some fans picked up the information and were convinced: the release date for GTA 6 was leaked (via X). Others doubted the accuracy and pointed out that developers Rockstar Games would not share such a secret piece of information with any online stores. Overall, there was excitement and discussions triggered by the mentioned release date.

In the meantime, the dealer has also commented on the discussion and apologized in a statement, explaining what the date actually is (via XUruguay).

The “leak” was just a misunderstanding

What is behind the “leak”? As many GTA fans correctly pointed out on social networks, this is simply the release date of GTA V. As the dealer explains in the statement, the release date shown is not a leak. It was merely an internal joke that escalated.

A new employee had read the release date of GTA to the dealer’s team on Google – but that was the release date of GTA V and not GTA 6. Then, a team member jokingly responded that he should enter the date on the website.

However, the joke was apparently not taken as such, and so September 17 ended up as the release date of GTA 6 on the dealer’s website.

It is also not known when we will receive a second trailer for GTA 6 that provides new information. The next major deadline could be February 6, as an important business meeting of Take-Two Interactive is taking place then. GTA developer Rockstar Games is a subsidiary of Take-Two.

There is a really nasty part in the world of LoL – These are its 5 strongest champions

Nico Scheibel 3. February 2025 Reading time 5 minutes

League of Legends offers countless background stories and interesting lore. The new Season 15 takes you to a region some may already know from the Netflix series Arcane. MyMMO presents 5 of the strongest champions.

The name of the season “Welcome to Noxus” already reveals where the theme is heading. It is the home of the characters Ambessa and the new mage Mel Medarda from Arcane. Noxus stands for power, war, and strength and has one of the most feared armies in the world.

Anyone with the necessary skills can take a position of power regardless of wealth and family. Diplomacy is often rejected, and the Noxians solve problems through conquest and war. Despite the performance-oriented ideals of Noxus, the great noble houses still hold considerable influence.

We present to you the 5 strongest champions from Noxus.

How was this list created? This list is based on the official lore and background stories of the various champions. Their strength in-game was not taken into account.

After a years-long campaign in the icy north and several assassination attempts on Darius, he returned to Noxus. Swain had overthrown and murdered Grand General Darkwill during Darius’s absence.

Darius was appointed as one of the three new council members to rule over Noxus. With his incredible physical strength, military skill, and iron will to lead Noxus into a new age of conquest, Darius enters history as one of the mightiest champions of Noxus.

WoW Classic: Streamer narrowly escapes a deadly mechanic that is 20 years old

Cortyn 3. February 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

A streamer in WoW Classic narrowly escaped death because he was too curious and wanted to loot everything he saw.

In the Classic version of World of Warcraft, there are many traps and obstacles that can unexpectedly lead to the demise of a character. This is usually not a problem – except when playing in hardcore mode. Because in that case, every fatal mistake is guaranteed to be the last, and the journey starts anew.

Although all the dangers in World of Warcraft Classic are largely known, there are still incidents where some players are surprised by sudden enemies. This also happened to the streamer Quin69, who clicks on a strange object – and narrowly escapes death.

The 5 most dangerous characters from Game of Thrones in the power ranking

Linda Baumgartl 3. February 2025 Reading time 4 minutes

In the dark world of Game of Thrones, death is never far away. It is no coincidence that the series is notorious for its brutality. But which character is actually the most dangerous and has the most victims on their conscience?

What kind of ranking is that? In Game of Thrones, there is an abundance of dangerous characters of all kinds. Some are skilled swordsmen, others are cunning assassins or political intrigues. They are all lethal.

In order to compare which character is the most dangerous, we look at the number of their victims. The Washington Post published a comprehensive statistic on all 6887 deaths in Game of Thrones in 2019.

A death was counted only if:

The death is explicitly shown in the series
The death is not directly shown but occurs very clearly after a certain scene
The death is not shown but is a very prominent part of the storyline

Of course, the numbers are not 100 percent accurate. In action-packed battle scenes, for example, it is more difficult to determine the exact death toll. It even gets more complicated with dragons that can literally burn entire groups of people with one breath.

Rank 5: Jon Snow

In the last place of this ranking is Jon Snow. Even though he knows little, he has 112 deaths on his conscience. The main reason for this is his skillful use of Longclaw, his sword made of Valyrian steel.

Since childhood, Jon has trained almost daily for battle. First with the sword master of the Starks, then with the training of the Night’s Watch. With his skills, he manages to survive even in the dangerous North beyond the Wall.

He has most of his kills fittingly in the episode Beyond the Wall (Season 7, Episode 6). Jon and his companions are on an expedition in the North to capture a wight. They are attacked by an army of wights, of which Jon can eliminate 42. Admittedly, wights were already dead. But they die again, which is why they were included in the statistics.

Rank 4: Cersei Lannister

Cersei Lannister might not be suspected on this list at first glance. After all, she is not a classic fighter. She prefers to act in the background and spin political intrigues. Nevertheless, she has killed 199 people.

Almost all of these deaths come from a single scene: the explosion of the Great Sept of Baelor (Season 6, Episode 10). There was supposed to be a trial against Cersei there. But she does not appear. Instead, she uses the highly explosive wildfire that the mad king stored in the catacombs beneath King’s Landing and blows up the Sept. In doing so, she kills several of her rivals, including Margaery Tyrell and the High Sparrow.

A character from Dragon Ball was forgotten by the creator, only a few fans could see them one last time

Jasmin Beverungen 3. February 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

Akira Toriyama has drawn so many characters throughout Dragon Ball that he couldn’t even remember all of them. One of these characters, unfortunately, made his last appearance not in the anime and manga, but in a special story.

Which character is it? Lunch is one of the characters that Akira Toriyama forgot. In the manga, she regularly disappeared during the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament. After that, she only had minor appearances in the Dragon Ball Z anime until she ultimately only appeared in flashbacks and during Son-Goku’s Genkidama in the Boo arc.

Akira Toriyama even retroactively gave her an ending, in which she fell in love with Tenshinhan and lived with him on a farm for a while. Unfortunately, there was no happy ending for the two, and their love story was never seen in the anime and manga.

There was another appearance where Lunch was last seen in Dragon Ball. Unfortunately, this scene does not appear in the regular anime and manga, which is why many fans may not have seen her last adventure.

The anime of Dragon Ball Super stopped in the middle of the story:

Lunch had a last appearance in Dragon Ball

Where did Lunch appear last? Her last appearance in the manga was split between the 3rd and 4th issues of the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine, which were published in 1991. The story of “Put the Old Year Behind You! Jump Characters Face Off at Short GAG Land” takes place shortly after the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament, during the Freeza saga.

The story is about the holidays and how many characters from Dragon Ball spend them. Bulma is playing on the console and Mutenroshi is sweeping the veranda of his house. Some of the deceased characters are playing hide and seek on Master Kai’s planet.

On the other hand, Lunch is desperately searching for Tenshinhan. There is a picture of her in her “evil” form. She angrily wonders where Tenshinhan could have gone. With the ending that Toriyama later gave her, we know that she probably longs for him out of love.

Why have so few fans seen Lunch’s last appearance? The Weekly Shonen Jump magazine is only published in Japan. Since the scene was not included in the official manga and the World Wide Web was only made public in 1993, not many have been able to witness Lunch’s last appearance.

Player levels up to Level 60 in Diablo 4 in one minute, immediately has strong gear for endgame

Benedict Grothaus 3. February 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

The most action in Diablo 4 takes place in the endgame. Accordingly, players want to reach the maximum level 60 as quickly as possible. In Season 7, this can be done particularly quickly, namely in just a few seconds. However, it requires some preparation.

How does the fast leveling work?

Opening reward chests of the Whispering Tree grants you a big boost of experience every time. The XP lies around on the ground as golden orbs.
The method is already older; wudijo reached level 60 within 7 minutes in Season 6.
Now, in Season 7, it’s even faster. A user on Reddit shows a clip in which he goes from level 1 to 60 in just a few seconds. And the new season is perfect for this.

Is the method worth it? Definitely, but the shown minute is a bit misleading. First, all the chests need to be collected. This takes, according to users, about two and a half hours.

Nevertheless, the method is extremely worthwhile because you get gear with item level 750 or even 800 right away. Enough to – depending on the class – start immediately with Torment 4. And in Season 7, you’ll be farming the chests constantly anyway.

The Whispering Tree is the central element of the season and the new head hunts that are already well received provide you with plenty of Gruesome Gifts. The user explains that he was farming anyway to reach the last two levels of the Witch’s Call. But remember, increase your chances for Great Chests in the Battle Pass with Ash.

Starting from February 4th, you can even save more time. With patch 2.1.1, more ravens are coming to the head hunts, so you won’t have to travel far to hand in your Gruesome Gifts.

“I haven’t attacked even once until level 60”

Whoever does not want to grind first with a character at maximum level can level up enormously fast at the moment even without the chests. In the thread on Reddit, players talk about taking about half an hour to reach max level.

The reason for this is the new witch powers from Season 7. They are account-bound, leveling for each character and not individually. Powers like the Aura of Drain at level 20 ensure that characters at low levels can simply run through masses of enemies and kill them without ever having to attack.

For both methods, you first need a character at level 60; they are only suitable for second characters. Here you can find tips for fast leveling in Season 7.

However, you also have to invest a lot of time here to even get to the leveled powers. Additionally, you miss out on the legendaries and, with luck, mythical items that can drop from the chests with this method.

For many players, fast leveling of second characters is a welcome feature in Season 7. Replaying a character once per season is enough for them. Being able to try out new characters and builds after that is advantageous. If you also want to test a bit: These are the currently best builds and classes in Season 7

Player asks why one should play Monster Hunter Wilds multiple times – Fans do not understand the question

Alexander Mehrwald 3. February 2025 Reading time 2 minutes

With Monster Hunter Wilds, many newcomers are entering the series alongside experienced hunters. A player wonders how high the replay value of the title is.

Why is the player wondering this? User xedkox poses the question in his thread on Reddit, asking how likely it is that one would play Monster Hunter Wilds again. He has not played any Monster Hunter game before and cannot yet imagine how much time he will invest in the title.

He usually plays games like Elden Ring, Diablo 4, or Path of Exile, but finds the Monster Hunter system exciting. The community comes to his aid and explains what kind of scope he can expect.

“That would mean you eventually stop”

The community talks less about classic replay value: Fans under his post clarify to him why, in their opinion, one can invest a lot of time into Monster Hunter Wilds. User STIN831 responds directly on Reddit: “There is no replay value in MH. Mainly because that would mean you eventually stop.”

In Monster Hunter games, the excitement does not come from playing it over and over from the beginning. Rather, over time a kind of cycle develops where you continually engage in grinding for rare materials to meet further challenges (via Reddit).

This is explained by ChloroquineEmu regarding a restart and game time via Reddit:

I wouldn’t call it “replay value” since you probably won’t restart the game. But if you want, you can immensely extend the playtime. There are so many things to do and so much to experiment with.

Even a base game of Monster Hunter, focusing on one weapon type, offers, according to the community’s statements, quickly over 300 hours of gameplay (via Reddit). If you want to focus on more weapon types, you could easily end up with 1000+ hours of playtime (via Reddit).

Additionally, there are regular events and usually a major DLC. All in all, you could quickly reach 2 – 4 years, during which the game provides you with new input and adds new content to the “grinding loop” (via Reddit). This ensures that there is no clear “end of the game” and players who enjoy the gameplay can basically keep playing almost endlessly.
