Helldivers 2 wanted to fix the game in 60 days, now the final update is here – Patch notes for 01.001.104

Helldivers 2 was in a difficult situation. The game was unsure of its direction and nerfs ruined the fun for fans. The developers promised to save the coop shooter in 60 days. The time is up, but how does the game look now and is it worth revisiting? We will show you.

What was the 60-day plan? The head of Arrowhead promised in August 2024 to save Helldivers 2. The reason for the rescue was dissatisfied players and steadily declining player numbers. Arrowhead saw many weapons and stratagems that were far too dominant in the then meta. Weapons were weakened, even visually altered, and decisions were made that drove the community mad.

In order to prevent a complete boycott of Helldivers 2, Arrowhead created its 60-day plan, focusing on addressing the concerns raised by the community in order to provide the fan experience that they had loved since the release of Helldivers 2. Now 63 days have passed and the final patch of the plan is out. How good is the game now and is it worth revisiting?

Developers know now what players want

What has changed? One might think the developers have learned from their mistakes. Helldivers 2 is in a very good state regarding the meta. Many weapons are fun again, enemies are not as dominant anymore, and nerfs and changes have been reversed.

Above all, the flamethrower has regained its former glory, automatons have been nerfed, and various weapons such as the Liberator have been overhauled to stand out in the current meta.

The team is now more focused on the motto “buffing instead of nerfing”. Strong weapons are left alone, while weaker tools are improved enough to compete with the strength of the meta weapons.

Pro wins important tournament in CS2, but instead of celebrating, he leaves the stage – Here’s what happened

A professional from Counter-Strike 2 left the stage early after an important tournament victory and did not attend the autograph session. He has now revealed the reason.

What kind of tournament was it?

  • The “Intel Extreme Masters Rio 2024” took place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in Counter-Strike 2 until October 13.
  • For seven days, 16 teams from around the world fought for the trophy and a prize pool of $100,000.
  • The final on October 13 was contested by the teams of Natus Vincere (NaVi) and Mouz, which NaVi ultimately won 3:1 on the map Ancient.

Winner leaves the stage early

What happened after the victory? NaVi won the final, and shortly after the end of the final map, the trophy presentation and celebrations on stage were to take place. This is, of course, an important moment for players that they usually celebrate extensively and take their time – not so for NaVi’s Aleksi Antti Kaarlo Virolainen, better known as Aleksib.

During the trophy presentation, the Finnish Aleksib was still present and stood with his celebrating teammates for a few minutes. However, while they stayed on stage much longer to celebrate and take photos with the trophy, Aleksib left early.

Furthermore, the Finn skipped the following autograph session. Later he explained what the reason was.

Why did he leave the stage? As Aleksib explained in a post on X.com, he is mourning a close person who recently passed away. He had struggled deeply with his emotions and did his best to suppress them.

He then apologized for not attending the autograph session but was glad to have met many great fans during the tournament.

NaVi is also the team with which CS legend s1mple celebrated his most memorable successes. However, recently the Ukrainian was only a substitute there. He will soon play on loan for another team: “The counterpart to Ronaldo” – One of the best players in Counter-Strike is back, but for a much worse team

Pokémon GO: A small update helps you now find energy sources and Dynamax battles

With a small change, you can now find power sources and Dynamax battles more easily in Pokémon GO. We will show you how this works.

If you are looking for Dynamax battles, you can use the corresponding tab in the game to display the Dyna battles in your vicinity.

However, you will only see battles that are not too far from you, and you will also not know how long the Dynamax monsters are still present at these power sources.

A small change now provides a solution to this and can be a useful tool to discover power sources at a greater distance and check how long they will still be available.

Start video
Dynamax in Pokémon Go – How to participate in the gigantic battles

Small change, great overview

What is this change? The change does not directly affect Pokémon GO, but the so-called Campfire app. This app is a supplementary application by Niantic, which helps you find teammates for raids more easily.

After the last update, Dynamax battles are now available in the app, which were previously not shown. This means you can now also see Dynamax battles in your area and distant power sources via the Campfire app.

Additionally, the app offers another advantage regarding power sources and Dynamax battles. When you click on a power source, you can see how long it will still be available and until when you have time to challenge the Pokémon.

Can I find trainers for Dyna battles this way? Unfortunately, it is currently not possible to mark power sources via Campfire and search for teammates, as is the case for raids. Whether this feature will be activated in the future remains to be seen.

Considering the huge number of trainers needed to complete Gigadynamax battles, this feature would definitely be helpful and would increase the chances of successfully participating in such battles.

Even though Dynamax has been very present in Pokémon GO lately, there are of course many other contents for you outside of this feature. If you want to get an overview of what activities are waiting for you in the game in the near future, feel free to take a look at our overview of the events in October 2024 in Pokémon GO.

Throne and Liberty: Farming and Redeeming Abyss Contract Tokens – Here’s How

In Throne and Liberty there are the currency Abyss Contract Marks, which are displayed in the top right corner of your screen. But how do you get them and what are they for? MeinMMO has all the answers for you.

What are Abyss Contract Marks and how do I get them? Abyss Contract Marks are very important for receiving rewards in open-world dungeons. If you don’t have any marks left, you won’t receive any loot from monsters, Sollant, or experience points.

There are many ways to earn Abyss Contract Marks. You can pick up your daily tasks from the “Contract Manager” there Abyss Contract Marks are offered as a reward. You can also loot the sought-after currency from coop dungeons. We have listed all the possibilities for you to obtain the marks.

[toc]

Salt and bait are also sought-after items in the game and here’s how you get them:

Start video
Throne and Liberty: So bekommt ihr Köder und Salz

What are Abyss Contract Marks?

Abyss Contract Marks are a currency in Throne and Liberty. They are always displayed in the top right corner of your screen. When you hover your mouse over them, you can see how many you can save up. The maximum is 20,000 Abyss Contract Marks. Anything you gain beyond that is wasted.

Redeeming Abyss Contract Marks

You cannot actively spend the marks; they are consumed automatically when you defeat monsters in open-world dungeons.

As soon as you defeat a monster, you have a chance that it drops an item. The monsters have different levels and thus provide you with different loot. When an item drops, you consume your Abyss Contract Marks at that moment. Even when you receive Sollant or experience points, the amount of your marks decreases.

But beware: You can only receive loot if the monster belongs to you or your group. If a stranger deals the first blow to the monster, the creature’s health bar will turn gray, and it belongs to the attacker. If you participate in the fight of the stranger, you won’t receive any loot.

Also, note that in open-world dungeons at night, PvP is activated, and therefore not only the creatures can attack you but also other players. You can read the time in the bottom right corner of the world map or in the top left of the minimap. Additionally, two crossed red swords are depicted at the dungeon when PvP is active.

What can you get from Abyss Contract Marks?

If you click on an open-world dungeon and then on “Monster Information” you can view the various monsters and their loot. Here are some important items you can obtain:

  • Equipment
  • Materials for crafting equipment
  • Growth Stones
  • Lithographs
  • Crystals: Rubix, Marind, Emeret, Stalon
  • Ores: Rubix Ore, Marind Ore, Emeret Ore, Stalon Ore
  • Abyss Aggregate
  • Polished Crystal
  • Sollant
  • Experience Points

Farming Abyss Contract Marks

Abyss Contract Marks can be farmed in the game through many possibilities:

  • Coop dungeons
  • Daily tasks from the “Contract Manager”
  • Weekly “Contract Sheets of the Allied Forces” from the “General Store Merchant”
  • Amitoi Expedition
  • Completing the main story
  • Side quests
  • The paid version of the Battle Pass

It is advisable to farm Abyss Contract Marks through daily tasks, as you should complete these anyway. Alternatively, you can also conquer the lower-level coop dungeons alone to quickly obtain Abyss Contract Marks there.

However, you need Dimension Contract Marks to open the chests. If you have questions about Throne and Liberty, then check out our overview, where we have listed all guides for the new MMORPG: Throne and Liberty: All guides for starting the new MMORPG.

In a beautiful action-adventure, you fight your way through a dying world, coming to Steam, PS5, Xbox

In Neva, you embark on a journey accompanied by a wolf cub through a world that is about to fall apart. The game is available, among other platforms, on Steam and PS5.

What kind of game is this? Neva is a new action-adventure game from Nomada Studio. The developers also released the award-winning platform adventure Gris. It won the award in the “Games for Impact” category at the Game Awards 2019.

Together with a young wolf, the young Alba travels through a world that is gradually falling apart around her. To withstand the dark forces that have cursed their world, the two must learn to work together.

Neva will be released on October 15, 2024, for PC on Steam, as well as for the consoles PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and the Nintendo Switch. You can get a first impression of the game in the trailer.

You can watch a trailer for the game here:

Beautiful platformer with combat elements

What does the trailer show? Like Gris, Neva is also a 2D platformer, but in the latter, combat is involved as well. Alba draws her sword, and your wolf companion also joins vigorously. Thus, Neva is likely to offer more of a challenge.

As expected from the developers, the visuals are once again one of the biggest highlights. The game offers literally picturesque landscapes through which Alba and her companion move with fluid animations.

The GamePro had the following to say about the graphics in their review of Neva: “Neva is beautiful and like Gris, a work of art turned into a video game that I would love to have printed and hung on my wall.”

The developers announced on X that Neva and Gris will also be available as a bundle on Steam. There, both games are offered with a 15% discount. Additionally, there will be a Deluxe Edition of Neva that includes not only the game but also a digital art book and the soundtrack.

Until the release of Neva on October 15, 2024, at 7 PM (CET), Gris is still available on Steam at a 90% discount. So if you hurry up now, you might just be able to snag one of the most beautiful games of all time on Steam at an absolute bargain price.

EA FC 25 Prime Gaming Pack: Are there free contents again?

In recent years, the Prime Gaming Packs have always been very popular with the community. But will the free content return in EA FC 25? Here you can find out everything we currently know.

Update, October 15, 2024: Normally, the Prime Gaming Pack for EA FC 25 should be released in the next few days. At least that’s the trend based on previous years. However, there is still no sign of the popular Prime Gaming content.

If anything changes, you will find out here.

What is the Prime Gaming Pack? In recent years, players in FC 24 and previous FIFA installments could always collect a so-called “Prime Gaming Pack” every month. The content included random cards, player choices, and various loan items.

The special thing: If you were an Amazon Prime member, you could always claim Gaming Packs for free without spending any coins or points.

Will there be a Prime Gaming Pack for EA FC 25 again? It has not yet been officially confirmed that there will be monthly Prime Gaming Packs in FC 25 again. Currently, there are no signs that indicate otherwise. Particularly curious: On the page of Amazon with all Prime content, there is no trace of EA FC. Even EA FC 24 has disappeared.

Could it be that the cooperation between EA and Amazon is over, and we cannot expect any further Prime Gaming Packs for FC 25?

This is what EA Sports says: We have inquired with the developer of EA FC 25 but have not yet received a response. As soon as we know more or there are first pieces of information about the Prime Gaming Pack in FC 25, you will find out here on MeinMMO.

When will the first Prime Gaming Pack in EA FC 25 be released? Whether and when a Prime Gaming Pack will appear in EA FC 25, we cannot say with certainty yet.

If the Prime Gaming Packs return, then mid-October would be a realistic time for the first Pack. This is because the first free Pack for EA FC 24 was released on October 17, 2023 last year.

What are the requirements for the Pack? To snag a free Prime Gaming Pack, you need to be a Prime customer at Amazon and link your EA and Amazon accounts.

How this is usually done, we will tell you here.

This is how you claim a Prime Gaming Pack if there are any again:

  • Go to the loot section of Prime Gaming via this link (via Prime Gaming / Amazon).
  • Navigate to the section for EA FC 25.
  • Select the Pack.
  • Link your Prime account with your EA account when prompted.
  • Click on the “Redeem” button.

Now the Pack will be credited to you, so you can either claim it directly in-game, in the web app, or in the companion app. You should then receive a notification in the menu that the Pack has been redeemed.

The ‘new’ character models in WoW are now older than the old ones

In the meantime, even the “new” character models in World of Warcraft are quite old. Is it time for another graphical overhaul?

World of Warcraft has evolved significantly over the past 20 years. The graphics have been improved in many areas, and when you look at the creature models from 20 years ago and compare them to a modern Xal’atath, the differences are obvious.

The characters of the players have also undergone a fundamental overhaul at one point. However, this overhaul was over 10 years ago. Thus, veterans of the first hour have been using the “new” models for longer than the old ones. Is it time for another revision?

Start video
Alleria: Light and Shadows – WoW Cinematic to The War Within

Here is the status of the models: The old models were updated for the first time over 10 years ago. At that time, “Mists of Pandaria” had just ended, and “Warlords of Draenor” was around the corner. Most races received their overhaul at launch, but Blood Elves and Draenei came along later.

The overhaul took Blizzard a lot of time. While the vast majority of races received their new models in Warlords of Draenor, Goblins and Worgen were the last races to get their upgrade in 2019.

Only the Pandaren still have their original models, but they were only introduced with Mists of Pandaria. This currently makes Pandaren the oldest character models, something that is often apparent.

What else has Blizzard done? In recent years, most races at least have had some new customization options. This ranged from new skin colors to hairstyles, as well as specific details like the tail length of Draenei. Some new species – such as the Mechagnomes or Zandalari Trolls – expanded the possibilities of existing races with interesting alternatives.

What the community criticizes: If you hang out in the community forums or the WoW subreddit, the character models are occasionally discussed. Some players have still not gotten used to the “new” models even after almost 11 years, find the animations still inappropriate, or details lacking. In a recent Reddit post, the community discusses what currently bothers them about the models:

  • “I think the biggest problem is the textures for hair and beards, which look outdated. They should get an update, and there should be many more options.” – TombOfAncientKings
  • “I believe character animations are particularly important right now. The difference in visual feedback between a Pandaren and a Human or Tauren is just crazy.” – Avistje
  • “First, we need to make long hair possible with hats. There are so many hats I can’t use because my character ends up bald.” – Shalelor

However, many believe that the character models in modern WoW are still sufficient and do not need an overhaul in the next few years. What do you think?
Some are also currently discussing entirely different topics: Like healers, who are having a particularly tough time.

You should change a setting in Windows 10 and 11, especially if you have children or pets

Just played a raid, suddenly the PC is off. A child, a cat, or both pressed the power button. But this problem can easily be prevented. MeinMMO explains how it works.

Anyone with pets, children, or even both knows the “problem”: both pets and children love to climb on things or around things. And it’s quick to happen that your gaming PC gets affected.

Just when you are in the middle of a raid or trying to finish a dungeon, suddenly the PC is off because the child pressed the power button or the cat used the laptop as a springboard. But with one setting, these annoying incidents can actually be prevented.

Start video
In Germany, there are over 400 USB sticks protruding from walls – What is the ‘Dead Drops’ project?

Change the setting so that the cat and child do not turn off the PC

What is the problem? When you install Windows 10 or 11 on your computer, the settings control what happens when you press the physical power button on your PC. And the default setting is that the computer shuts down when the button is pressed.

Here’s how to change the setting: Open the Control Panel, select “Hardware and Sound”, and here the option “Power Options”. Alternatively, you can type “Power Options” in the search in the Start menu in Windows and find the menu as well.

Once in the Power Options, select the option “Choose what the power buttons do” at the top on the left side.

Power Options 01
You can find the menu point at the top left.

Here you will find the setting that you want or should change. In the default setting of Windows, it says under “When I press the power button” that the PC should shut down. Change the option to “Do nothing.” Then your PC will ignore when someone presses the button while operating.

Power Options 02
Here you can change the setting so that the PC does not shut down directly when the power button is pressed.

Regularly shutting down the computer is still sensible

In general, there are enough reasons to shut down your PC sometimes. Because certain components, such as the RAM, also need a break to be able to clear themselves.

And players constantly discuss whether or not to shut down hardware. One player now says: His PC ran for 5 years straight and nothing bad happened. This leads to great discussions: A player lets his gaming PC run for 5 years straight – Explains there is no reason to shut it down

More and more bots in Throne and Liberty, perpetrators see no problem: only ‘third-party programs that run macros’

More and more players of Throne and Liberty are complaining about bots that negatively impact the gaming experience in the open world as well as in dungeons.

How do the bots affect the game? About a week ago, just days after the launch of Throne and Liberty, the first reports of bots in NCSoft and Amazon Games’ new MMORPG emerged. Similar to Lost Ark, the problem is growing day by day in T&L, which is reflected in the increasing number of reports from the community.

The increasing number of bots affects the gaming experience in several ways:

  • Countless bot characters farm specific creatures and resource sources in the open world that can be turned into Lucent. For example, they target animals that may drop rather rare ingredients for powerful cooking recipes.
  • In the instanced, cooperative 6-player dungeons, characters with cryptic names like Zdwadaedawd are regularly appearing. Sometimes they fight only as a cover. Often enough, they do just enough to avoid being kicked, while the five “normal” players do most of the work.
  • According to various reports, many dominating guild alliances are relying on bots. They are spreading out in the open Abyss dungeons in the game world to farm them extensively.

The launch trailer of Throne and Liberty:

When will Amazon Games react?

How is the community reacting to these reports? In countless threads and even more comments, affected players confirm the reports about the increasing number of bots.

  • Daish22 complains on Reddit: “I reported 37 bots from the same guild on my server. I recorded hours of video and used the enemy list to track them. Some players even openly justify botting by claiming it’s not a real bot, but just third-party programs that execute macros and allow their characters to farm mobs while they are AFK.”
  • spekatt criticizes the publisher (via Reddit): “I’ve said it before and I will say it again. Just like New World. Just like Lost Ark. Amazon Games does nothing against cheating. Cheating and RMT are allowed because they do not punish people. There are 0 in-game GMs, there is 0 customer support.”
  • Travalgard explains on Reddit: “This game was originally supposed to launch with an autoplay feature […]. You don’t even need a complicated macro. Just hit ‘R’, activate the 3-second auto-scan for mobs, and all you need now is an autoclicker that clicks the first mob in the list every 3 seconds. The game was made for botting.”

Link to the Reddit content

Some Reddit users note that bots are usually fought in large waves and not individually. This was also a strategy that Amazon Games employed in Lost Ark. However, it is unclear when the first ban wave will occur.

Currently, it seems that the lessons learned from New World and Lost Ark, which Amazon Games spoke about ahead of the launch of Throne and Liberty, have not yet borne fruit. The combination of a Free2Play entry and an auction house with real money currency does the rest to attract countless bot users.

What do I need to know about Throne and Liberty? Throne and Liberty was released on October 1, 2024, for PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5. There is crossplay between platforms. The MMORPG intends to finance itself through the in-game shop, battle passes, and real money currencies.

We asked the developers of ‘Dark Souls with Guns’ what they think about a series adaptation of their game

MeinMMO editor Dariusz interviewed the head of Remnant 2 and received some interesting information about the co-op shooter.

What is the Dark Souls with guns? The games Remnant: From the Ashes and Remnant 2 by Gunfire Games are referred to by players as “Dark Souls with guns”. This has various reasons.

  • Remnant 2 is, just like its predecessor “Remnant: From the Ashes”, a mix of co-op shooter and Soulslike. Especially the high difficulty level stands out.
  • Not only the difficulty level reminds of Dark Souls and other FromSoftware games. The Remnant games are also dark and invite exploration in equal measure. Even in Remnant 2, there are numerous secrets to discover – including a hidden Archetype.
  • The archetypes are the classes of the co-op shooter. They come with different abilities and weapons. Additionally, you can choose different traits to prepare yourself ideally for the challenging battles in 3-player squads.

MeinMMO editor Dariusz was allowed to ask a few questions in an interview with David Adams. David is the Creative Director of the Remnant franchise and the president of the developer studio Gunfire Games.

We asked David Adams what he thinks about an adaptation of the Remnant universe. After all, we have seen several successful game adaptations recently with series like “Arcane”, “The Last of Us”, and “Fallout”.

What does Adams say about a Remnant adaptation? Adams expressed enthusiasm for the idea of a Remnant series, but was not too optimistic:

That would be cool, but I don’t expect it. But who knows what the future will bring.

When it comes to realizing a Remnant adaptation as a film or series, Gunfire Games should not take Borderlands as an example. The film of the loot shooter even disappointed fans.

Inspirations, the future, and the difficulty of the games

What else does Adams share in the interview? David Adams provided additional insights into Gunfire Games and Remnant. For example, he revealed that Resident Evil 4 was a gameplay inspiration for Remnant. Initially, however, the co-op shooter was supposed to take place in a different setting.

The developers ultimately decided to set Remnant in the same universe as their VR soulslike Chrons. The various worlds in the Remnant universe, in turn, have different inspirations. Adams cites Dune, Pan’s Labyrinth, and Mad Max as examples.

As for the future of Gunfire Games, Adams remained tight-lipped. He only stated that we can expect “really cool stuff.” However, not much is likely to change regarding the difficulty of upcoming titles. Adams explained that they want to develop games they enjoy playing. Still, Gunfire Games is making efforts to make their games more accessible to more players and to find ways to make the gaming experience more enjoyable for a broader audience.

Just recently, Remnant 2 received the final expansion “The Dark Horizon”, which enriched the co-op shooter with a new story, a new class, and new bosses. You can learn more about it on MeinMMO: A hardcore co-op shooter gets a furious final DLC – Check out the trailer

The new game for Destiny makes fans fear for monetization, the creators were already greedy before

NetEase, a major mobile games developer from China, has recently announced its latest project – Destiny: Rising. The game tells a story of an alternate timeline and allows you to explore many new things. Fans of the franchise have also looked at the announcement and are not impressed so far.

Who are the creators of Destiny: Rising? In fact, Bungie has held back in the development of Destiny: Rising and only supported NetEase from the background. When it came to well-known aspects of the story as well as the connections of the Guardians and their powers, Bungie was open for information, but the real developers are NetEase.

Famous titles from the Chinese game studio include Diablo: Immortal and Naraka: Bladepoint. Both games are free to play, but if you look at the core, you will find that their monetization is not user-friendly. Fans have already seen through this and fear bad things for Destiny: Rising.

Start video

Gacha or P2W

What are fans afraid of? Diablo: Immortal was released in a state that heavily relied on the P2W approach for monetization. Players with a lot of money had the strongest heroes, while fans wandering through Sanctuary for free had to invest a lot of time into their characters and were rather weak. This did not go down well with the franchise’s fans.

In Naraka: Bladepoint, it’s the Gacha system that NetEase applies for monetization. To acquire cosmetic items, you can buy chests to draw, with some luck, the items you want – unfortunately, the drop chance for the rarer items is very low, which is meant to encourage more purchases.

Now on YouTube, fans are discussing Destiny: Rising and agree: The game will either be P2W or have Gacha, otherwise the mobile game cannot be financed at all. The user MysticCasey sums it up in a comment on YouTube as follows:

Hello, here is someone who does a ton of alpha/beta testing for mobile. This will be heavily monetized on 3 fronts 99.999 % of the time:

1) Unlocking new characters to play. Go and read their blog about how weapons and abilities are tied to characters. They state that you can move weapons. That’s Gacha.
2) Upgrading weapons/equipment/abilities to become stronger. This is almost standard for mobile games that use equipment. Of course you have Exotics, but you CAN make them stronger than the base stats.
3) Resources. Yes, that is pretty obvious if you have ever touched a mobile game. You can either buy resources directly or buy something that increases resources.

Bonus points!
Fees for unlocking weapons that are not tied to unlocking characters.

And other users share the same view regarding the monetization:

  • “Free to play, mobile, NetEase – You thought Destiny 2 had bad monetization? WHOOO BOY…” – tronicalli7587
  • “You’re dead! Pay $1.99 to live again before the delete timer runs out! You found an exotic engram! Wait 48 hours to open it, or open it now for $2.99!
    You can already test the gameplay: Reach into your pocket, pull out your credit card, enter all the numbers into your phone. Repeat” – JabeRaddle
  • “Since it’s a mobile game, especially a Chinese one, it is pretty much guaranteed to have very predatory monetization, which raises the question… Is anyone of you sure you can handle worse monetization than the current Destiny 2? I certainly couldn’t, lol.” – pch1370

There is also praise

What is being praised? Fans on YouTube particularly praise the representation of Destiny: Rising. They find it amazing that games like Destiny can be portrayed on mobile devices without major issues.

Regarding the content, Destiny 2 players are envious. The Lightbearers are getting new talents like a scythe from the Void, allowing the Warlock to take on a more aggressive role. In terms of weapons, Destiny: Rising even brings a new weapon type into the game – the crossbow, while players in Destiny 2 are still seeing the same recycling that has been going on for years.

It remains to be seen what Destiny: Rising will offer once the full release is due. Everything that is currently known about the mobile game in the Destiny universe can be found on MeinMMO: The first trailer for Destiny: Rising reveals: The loot shooter is getting new classes and abilities

Blizzard nerfs the currently best build in Diablo 4: “Affects other players”

In Diablo 4 is a build currently far too strong: the Evade build for the Spiritborn. Blizzard has noticed this and is working on a nerf. While some fans are upset about it, most agree: It is not only fair but also necessary.

What kind of build is this?

  • With the Evade build for Spiritborn, you fully rely on the Evade ability, that is, the dodge button.
  • In principle, you do not need any active skills: You let Thunder Spike out while dodging and continuously spam Evade. The build is both easy to play and extremely strong; you only need one Legendary.
  • On the Tier List of the best builds in Season 6, the Evade build topped the list. That is likely to change soon.

This is the nerf: Players have already predicted that the build will be nerfed. Community Manager Adam Fletcher now explains on X that the Evade build will be adjusted. Actually, Blizzard does not want to nerf builds in the middle of the season just because they are too strong.

In this case, however, the performance of other players is affected. The build only works due to a bug:

This is a bug that allows the Spiritborn to directly break the animation frames during Evade. We will fix it so that you can no longer evade again while evading […] The reason we are fixing the bug now is (and some might have already noticed), that it currently affects other players and their gaming experience.

The bug is apparently caused by the Spiritborn unique Sepazontec. Without this item, the build works with conventional Evade. The bug fix will come with Patch 2.0.3 later this week. A specific date is still pending.

Was not the Evade build, but still fast: the Jaguar Spiritborn:

Diablo 4: This is what a Jaguar-Eagle build from the Spirit Born in Vessel of Hatred looks like

“Please don’t ruin the build with this”

On X, users are not pleased with the news. One says: This is the only build that is fun. Without it, he will simply return to WoW. Others ask that the build should not be made unplayable despite the nerf: “[The build] is really a lot of fun and I am not the only one saying that.”

Other players on Reddit say the build is so strong it trivializes everything else. That is not fun – even though it is somehow the goal of Diablo to only have to press one button.

Adam Fletcher himself also speaks out and explains: Actually, such nerfs are only implemented mid-season (via Reddit). Only in exceptions like here, where something becomes a problem for others, do they react immediately.

Users predict that the build will still work similarly with the nerf but will be so slow that it can only deal a fraction of the damage. We roughly expect a slide to B- or C-Tier. If you still want to play Spiritborn in S-Tier, you can find an alternative here: The best build for Spiritborn dominates the endgame and is super easy to play

A remake of an RTL2 anime is currently conquering Netflix, taking you back to your childhood

Netflix has steadily expanded its range of animes in recent months. A new anime, of which only 2 episodes have currently been released, has directly entered the top 10 most-watched series.

Which anime is it about? It is about the reboot of Ranma ½. The anime started on Netflix a few weeks ago. So far, 2 episodes have been released. The series originally aired in 2002 on RTL II, which is why many of you might know the original from your childhood or youth.

Ranma ½ follows the adventures of Ranma Saotome. The 16-year-old, his father, and many other characters have fallen into enchanted springs. Due to the curse, they transform upon contact with cold water into the being that drowned in the respective spring.

Ranma fell into a spring where a young girl drowned. This makes his situation much more complicated: He has to deal not only with his fiancée but also with many other admirers. So the relationship chaos is pre-programmed.

You can watch the remake in the following video:

Start video

Ranma ½ gets a successful reboot

How successful is Ranma ½ with the reboot? Although only 2 episodes of the anime have been released, it is already ranked 8th among the most-watched series on Netflix (via FlixPatrol). Thus, the series is just behind Dandadan, which is in 7th place, another anime.

In Germany, the anime even ranks 6th among the most-watched series and is the only anime in the top 10. This is likely due to many former RTL II viewers being curious about how Ranma ½ performs in 2024.

The quality of the anime is reflected in IMDb: The first episode was rated 8.0 out of 10 points, and the second episode even received an 8.5/10. So far, only 171 and 81 votes have been cast, but they show the trend of how good the reboot really is.

Why should you watch the anime? New viewers and fans of the RTL II original should not miss the anime. Ranma ½ shines in a modern coat and looks really beautiful. There is also a chance that this time the story of the complete manga will be shown, not just part of it in the anime.

A special gimmick is that almost all the voice actors from the RTL II version are also involved in the German dubbing. Only the male Ranma has a new voice actor, who does his job very well. Unfortunately, the German opening of the original anime is also missing.

Unlike the original anime, the nudity has been toned down a bit. Although breasts are still suggested, the nipples are now covered by towels or other objects.

Dandadan is the other anime that has made it internationally into the top 10 most-watched series. In the Japanese original, the voice actress of Monkey D. Luffy from One Piece even lends her voice: In a new anime, the original voice of Luffy is involved – The voice actress fulfills a big wish

LoL: 22-Year-Old Was Supposed to Be the New Superstar, Wants to Sign His Professional Contract, Then the Team Disbands

Many young players in League of Legends dream of becoming a professional player and competing against the best of the best. Only a few achieve this. A 22-year-old Australian is a promising talent, but he had bad luck with his team choice.

Who is it about? Jett Michael Srtty Joye has made a name for himself in the LoL scene in the Solo-Q area, meaning the ranked mode. The 22-year-old Australian broke a record. He reached the highest LP value ever achieved by anyone in the ranking in North America. With 2154 LP, he is at the top.

Professional teams also recognized that he is really good. However, the big breakthrough in the LCS has yet to come, even though he almost signed a contract.

A talented player who had a lot of bad luck

How did Srtyy’s career go? In a YouTube video by FlyQuest League of Legends, the 22-year-old Australian talks about his career and his beginnings with LoL. He started with Season 6, and then ambition took hold of him. He worked his way up to Rank 1 Challenger in Season 8. The highest rank in the ranking. That was on the Oceania Server.

To get even better, he wanted to play in the USA. In the video, Srtty explains that he also reached Challenger there, even with a negative win rate of 49%. He stated that he was quite toxic at the beginning and that LoL was an escape from his problems for him. Toxic players have always been a major problem in LoL.

He wanted to change that. By working on himself, he also got better at the game. Teams took notice. He played for several amateur teams and was able to achieve some success. He also played for the Challenger team of Evil Geniuses in the NACL, a kind of second league that can be a springboard into the big professional scene.

In the video, Srtty also talks about how he was verbally promised to play for the LCS team of Evil Geniuses, that is, in the highest US league. The night before the contract signing, Evil Geniuses left the LEC.

Srtty does not give up

What happened next for him? After the end of Evil Geniuses, he played for FlyQuest NZXT and for Saint Louis University. He was able to achieve some success there as well. For example, he won the NACL2024 Spring Playoffs with his team or the CLOL 2024 Championship.

His current team is Saint Louis University.

Can he still make it to the LCS? It’s hard to say. He has great skill and is quite successful in his field. However, he is also relatively old at 22 years. A positive example is mentioned: Sheep Esports. The player Quad switched from FlyQuest NZXT to the FlyQuest roster and rose in the LCS. He is also 22.

What happens next for Srtty, we will probably find out in the next few months as new team contracts are negotiated. Currently, the Worlds are the big event in League of Legends. And there too, FlyQuest has provided some exciting moments: Belgian Berserker shocks the Korean champion at the LoL World Championship, giving the Americans their pride back

Throne and Liberty: How to Find the Treasure of the Fonos Basin – All Steps Explained in Detail

Finding the treasure of the Fonos Basin in Throne and Liberty is not easy; we have the solution for you to reach the treasure.

Where is the treasure hidden? The treasure of the Fonos Basin is buried in the northwest of the “Fonos Basin waypoint.” However, you can only discover it at night, as it is not visible during the day. So pay attention to the time in the game, which you can read in the bottom right corner of the world map or the top left of the minimap.

Many orcs lurk in the Fonos Basin, attacking you as soon as you enter their territory. It is advisable to first complete the second part of the side quest “Land of the Wild, Fonos Basin” to receive the transformation of the “Orc Slayer.” If you transform into one of them, they will no longer attack you.

How to find the treasure of the Fonos Basin

You will find the treasure only at night in the northwest of the “Fonos Basin waypoint.” We have all the details for you about the quest.

Treasure of the Fonos Basin Part One: Starting the Quest

The quest begins after you have spoken to the NPC “Treasure Hunter.” He is located at “Fonos Basin” right next to the “Forno Basin waypoint” and is waiting for you there.

Treasure of the Fonos Basin Part Two: Finding the Key

The NPC asks you to procure the “Treasure Key.” To do this, you need to venture into the orc territory and defeat “Orc Shamans” until one of them drops the key. This may take some time. Remember, only “Orc Shamans” will drop the key – other orcs do not.

If you assign a star to the quest in the codex, the required monsters will be marked with a small blue star on the world map, so you can find the right opponents faster.

Treasure of the Fonos Basin Part Three: Finding the Chest

The third part of the quest goes faster if you activate the star marking. Once you have received the “Treasure Key” from an “Orc Shaman,” the location of the chest will be displayed on the map that you need to open next.

Now, the orc transformation comes into play if you possess it from the second part of the side quest “Land of the Wild, Fonos Basin.” If not, you can catch up by defeating the mini-boss “Orc Slayer Chief,” who is also located in the “Fonos Basin.”

With the transformation, you can safely approach the chest without being hit by the orcs. With the quest marking, the chest is easy to find. However, inside the chest is a treasure map, and the red circle on it indicates where you can find the “Treasure of the Fonos Basin.”

Treasure of the Fonos Basin Part Four: The Treasure

You will find the treasure in the northwest of the “Forno Basin waypoint,” but only at night. If it is currently daytime in your game, you will unfortunately have to wait some minutes for night to fall. Here too, the orc transformation proves useful. As an orc, you can go to the treasure site and wait there until the sun goes down without being attacked by other orcs.

The exact location of the treasure of the Fonos Basin is here:

WoW massively nerfs the current final boss – Last chance to defeat him ‘properly’

A new round of nerfs is going live soon in World of Warcraft. Anyone who wants to defeat Queen Ansurek at full strength needs to hurry.

Even though the race for the World First Kill in World of Warcraft: The War Within has long been concluded, it seems Blizzard is still not satisfied with the difficulty of the final boss. This Wednesday (10/16/2024), a major round of adjustments is coming – all of which are very direct nerfs. Both the Mythic and Heroic modes of Queen Ansurek, the final boss in the Palace of Nerub-ar, are affected.

Start video
WoW Cinematic: Threads of Destiny

What will be changed? Quite a bit. Both the boss’s health points will be reduced, but many of her abilities will also be simplified. There will be longer casting times occasionally (thus allowing more time to react) or simply a reduction in damage dealt, so that mistakes can be corrected more easily.

Changes to Queen Ansurek on Heroic

  • Foaming Toxin deals 15% less damage.
  • Doomstrike deals 15% less damage.
  • When calculating how many targets are selected by Foaming Toxin, only living characters are included in this calculation.

Changes to Queen Ansurek on Mythic

  • Queen Ansurek’s health points have been reduced by 5%.
  • Foaming Toxin deals 26.7% less damage.
  • Silken Grave has 20% less health points.
  • Tear deals 25% less damage.
  • The maximum size of Wrapping Silk has been reduced by 10%.
  • The casting time of Shadow Passage has been increased by 20%.
  • Doomstrike deals 25% less damage.
  • The periodic damage of Acolyte Essence has been reduced by 15%.
  • The duration of Essence Scarred has been reduced by 50%.
  • Royal Judgment deals 10% less damage.
  • The health points and barrier of Summoned Acolytes have been reduced by 15%.
  • The health points of Royal Bonds have been reduced by 15%.
  • When calculating how many targets are selected by Foaming Toxin, only living characters are included in this calculation.

If you want to defeat Queen Ansurek at full strength, you will have to do this today – or benefit from the nerfs starting tomorrow.

Are more nerfs coming? Yes, although only indirectly and not through hotfixes. Starting Wednesday, it will also be possible to complete a repeatable quest at the entrance of the raid. With each completion of the quest, the power of your character increases, making the raid a little easier each week. This is intended to help groups that are struggling and have been frustrated with some bosses.

Even though The War Within has only been live for a few weeks, some groups need to hurry to conquer the raid Palace of Nerub-ar. Because in a few days, Patch 11.0.5 will already arrive and bring a “new, old” raid that comes with many additional rewards and will likely capture the guilds’ attention.

5 Reasons Why You Should Play New World Aeternum at Launch

New World Aeternum brings the MMORPG from Amazon Games in an adapted form to Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series. MeinMMO gives you 5 reasons why it might be worth visiting the fantasy world of Aeternum.

While the launch of Throne and Liberty promises a fresh gaming experience, some MMORPG fans might dismiss the launch of New World Aeternum with the thought, “I already know it, the game had its chance.”

However, there are good reasons why it might be worth for you to hit the login button for the first time or after a long break and enter the fantasy world of Aeternum. MeinMMO explains five of these reasons in more detail below.

[toc]

The launch trailer for New World Aeternum:

Reason 1: Be part of a new community

It is always something special when new servers go live for an MMORPG and a fresh community forms in these virtual worlds. How unique this gaming experience is is underscored not only by all the launches in MMO history but also by the numerous nostalgic classic servers of various online role-playing games for many years.

With New World Aeternum, there will also be completely new servers where economic problems and the hardened power imbalances of older realms do not matter. You can make a name for yourself alongside other newcomers, lead your own company to glory and honor, and earn a fortune in the market.

von Alexander Leitsch

Reason 2: Aeternum is coming to consoles

While there are now a number of good MMORPGs available on PlayStation and Xbox, New World Aeternum could quickly establish itself as one of the best online role-playing games for consoles.

The reason for this is the action-packed combat system, which feels tailor-made for the controller and has already felt wonderful in previous tests. New World Aeternum benefits from the comparatively small number of skills and the seamless switch to the second weapon. Additionally, targeting is now significantly easier.

Note that you will need a PlayStation Plus subscription as well as a Game Pass Core subscription to play New World Aeternum on PlayStation or Xbox.

Playing New World with the controller is wonderful.

Reason 3: The fascinating setting

New World combines the age of conquistadors with a wonderfully dark fantasy setting centered around the Corrupted, secret myths, and ancient ruins on the continent of Aeternum. This mix positively stands out from the fantastic monotony of many other MMORPGs.

Furthermore, thanks to its fantastic audiovisual design, the game world is one of the most impressive in the genre. Particularly, the soundscape is unmatched. It is simply fun to move through Aeternum and explore every corner of the island.

New World Aeternum: Mounts
Of course, there are also the mounts of the expansion in New World Aeternum.

Reason 4: Theme park full of attractions

Whether it’s story campaign, individual trials, arenas, dungeons, raids, PvP zones in the open world, events, quests, siege battles, or crafting: New World now offers a wealth of content aimed at different player types.

You can experience the game as a lone wolf, with friends, or as part of an ambitious guild. This abundance of options was not available during the first launch of New World.

Reason 5: The best version of New World so far

New World launched in September 2021 with a lot of potential and even more problems. It was apparent that the first MMORPG from Amazon Games had its direction changed in the midst of development.

More than three years later, New World Aeternum offers you a significantly richer but also more polished adventure, which is certainly still not perfect but represents the best, most versatile, and polished version of the MMORPG to date. If you want to embark on the adventure, check out our comprehensive guide overview for New World.
