The arrival of Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC brings a ton of new content, including new areas, new consumables, and new enemies. And it’s clear that the basic content that players encounter in Land of Shadow is now several times more difficult than before.
Among them, the bosses in Elden Ring DLC are more difficult than we have encountered before, and even the enemies we encounter in the early stages will make us fall into the quagmire. Many experienced veterans may be helpless when facing these bosses.
Therefore, here we will provide you with a guide to help you understand some of the tough bosses you need to watch out for in this new expansion so that you can be confident when facing them. Now let’s get started!
Like the last boss of most games, Promised Consort Radahn you encounter in Shadow of the Erdtree is also the most difficult to deal with. You might think that players who reach Land of Shadow have already defeated Starscourge Radahn, so Promised Consort Radahn is irrelevant. But that’s not the case.
Because Radahn in Caelid area has become even crazier than before. And Promised Consort Radahn has many deadly skills. It can use its Twin blades for close combat, and it can also use its powers of Gravity to throw Meteorite at Tarnished.
If the player can still barely resist at this time, then in the next stage, Miquella will join the boss battle and send deadly rays from the sky to the player, making the battle much more difficult. When fighting against such a highly aggressive boss with a small attack window, players are usually not allowed to make any mistakes. Players will feel very accomplished or occasionally frustrated when challenging.
Messmer The Impaler may look ordinary, but with its fast movement, ranged weapon attacks, temporary serpent form, and devastating elemental attacks, Messmer The Impaler is one of the most threatening bosses in Shadow of the Erdtree.
It is not a selectable boss. If the player repeatedly fails when attacking it, it is recommended that the player consume as many Scadutree Fragments as possible before fighting it. In return, defeating Messmer The Impaler will reward 400,000 Elden Ring Runes, as well as Remembrance of the Impaler, so it is worth a try.
Putrescent Knight is a combination of a knight and a horse in Fissure Depths within Land of Shadow. It is recommended that the player collect as many Scadutree fragments as possible when facing this boss. It can deal tremendous damage and has a blue flame AoE that can cover an extensive area. Meanwhile, when fighting Putrescent Knight, its semicircular sword is difficult to predict and dodge.
But fortunately, it is an optional boss and you can choose not to fight it. But it should be noted that defeating it will drop 220,000 Elden Ring Runes and Remembrance of Putrescence, which can be exchanged for Putrescence Cleaver.
Rellana arguably has the hardest early game skill check in any Soulsborne game. Even those players who have reached Elden Ring level 150. They will still face considerable difficulties because the fight with Rellana is very tricky.
Rellana’s swords can launch both magical attacks and physical attacks. In Rellana’s first phase, she will not use many attacks that cause Elemental Damage, and most of her skills rely on sweeping strikes with swords. Once her health bar is depleted to a certain extent, she will enter the second phase.
Rellana will infuse fire into her swords and begin to use a combination of magic and fire attacks. She will also become more aggressive, which means even the combos you are familiar with will be harder to dodge. Most players will find Rellana very challenging.
The body of Divine Beast Dancing Lion looks like a combination of a lion’s head and humanoid limbs. It is an extremely aggressive boss with some tricky moves and some interesting mechanics.
Since they usually fly in the air and move smoothly, it is difficult to really understand their body shape, and it is difficult to initially judge their attack methods. At the same time, they are very aggressive and have a variety of moves that you will never feel comfortable with, and will also launch a series of attacks without any chance of fighting back. When you enter the battle, he will start using Frost and Lightning attacks, which will make it more difficult for you to get close to them.
This boss is optional, like Putrescent Knight, but unlike Putrescent Knight, it does not drop as many Runes after defeating it. So players can choose whether to challenge this boss based on their own experience of satisfaction with the game.
Romina, Saint Of The Bud looks creepy. Romina’s design combines humanoid features with insect body parts, which she can use to hurt Tarnished.
With its enormous size, hard-to-dodge combat moves, and extremely long blade reach, it also has a rolling attack that is difficult to predict and dodge, and she can jump all over the arena in a few seconds. Romina, Saint Of The Bud is not optional, and once she is defeated, she will drop a considerable number of runes.
Golden Hippopotamus will be the first boss you encounter in Shadow Keep, so it is difficult to miss him.
Golden Hippopotamus is very powerful from the beginning. As soon as it is out of the door, Golden Hippopotamus will quickly attack the Tarnished, and its open mouth is reminiscent of Sulyvahn’s Beast from Dark Souls 3.
In the first stage, it mainly relies on bite attacks and slam attacks, and it continues to be quite aggressive. When it loses at least 35% of its health, it will enter the second stage. It grows golden quills on its back that can be shot out and deal significant damage. This boss will always try to attack actively, which also makes melee attacks more difficult.
Hopefully, this guide will make you adventurers more confident and well-prepared when exploring the unknown territory of Shadow Of The Erdtree. I wish you victory in the next battle!
Monopoly GO is a fun mobile board game that based on the classic Monopoly board games. It also adds a lot of fun features. You roll dice to build landmarks and collect rent from rival players until they go broke.
In this game, you rely not only on luck but also on strategy. In this guide, we will take a detailed look at how to play Monopoly GO and what you should and should not do in this game.
Although Monopoly GO follows most of the rules of previous board games, there are still some changes. In the old game, you need to collect rent by purchasing properties and building landmarks to win. But in Monopoly GO, you can win by more than just these.
In Monopoly GO, your ultimate goal is not necessary to make the most money, but to build your own landmarks. Each landmark can be upgraded six times, and after all the landmarks on your board have been upgraded to the highest level, you can move on to the next board.
While money is still very important in this game, as you need it to upgrade and build your landmarks, earning money seems to be less important in Monopoly GO than other aspects, as other activities will make you feel more fun.
In Monopoly GO, the most important thing is to get property sets, and the sooner the better. After you complete property sets of the same color, you can help you make more money. As mentioned above, you can double the money you earn with various landmarks!
In Monopoly GO’s landmarks, it is very important to use your resources appropriately. You need to first calculate in your mind how much extra money each upgrade will generate, so that you can maximize your resource utilization. Of course, you should first choose the landmarks that make the most money, to keep you ahead.
In Monopoly GO, Chance cards and Community Chests can help you get more money, or even turn the tide. So you need to read the descriptions of these two items carefully and use them appropriately in some situations, especially Chance cards.
In this business game, it is very important to manage your money properly. Not only control your spending, but also pay off your debts on time to ensure overall financial stability. So you need to always pay attention to your balance of income and expenditure so that you can make wise choices in some emergency decisions.
In Monopoly Go, in addition to finding ways to make more money, it is also important to protect the money you have already earned. There is a shield mechanism in this game that can partially defend against attacks on your board. They are equipped passively and are only activated when your landmarks are attacked by other players.
Whenever someone tries to attack one of your landmarks, the shield is automatically used. However, if you don’t have a shield, your landmark will be damaged and lose a level.
Events and tournaments in Monopoly GO can give you a great way to get a lot of rewards, including Monopoly Go Stickers and free dice. You should actively participate in these events and tournaments, which can help you level up faster, and there are mileage rewards after completing each task, which will also give you a lot of money as a reward.
Don’t think that this kind of business game can only be played alone. In Monopoly Go, if you cooperate with your friends, you can bring immense advantages to both parties. The more friends you have, the greater the advantage, and the more rewards you will get from the community chest! This is a situation where everyone wins, and I’m confident your friends will be eager to join.
In addition to the large rewards in events and tournaments, daily rewards or bonuses for logging in everyday are also very important. Although these rewards are not that much, they can accumulate! Keeping yourself active can also help you stay competitive in the game.
Don’t underestimate the importance of upgrading your landmarks. Enhanced properties bring bigger rewards. Strategically allocate your resources to maximize your earning potential and stay competitive.
Protecting your landmarks with shields is essential to staying competitive in Monopoly GO. Don’t neglect shield protection. Leaving your assets vulnerable to attacks can jeopardize your game progress.
Avoid wasteful spending in Monopoly GO and prioritize investments that will bring you long-term benefits. Manage your finances carefully to avoid bankruptcy and maximize profitability.
Chance cards can have a tremendous impact on your gameplay in Monopoly GO. Don’t underestimate their importance. Ignoring the instructions of your chance cards can lead to missed opportunities or setbacks.
Building alliances and partnerships with other players is essential to succeeding in Monopoly GO. Don’t isolate yourself from the game community. Working together with other players can give you valuable strategic advantages.
Time-limited events and tournaments offer valuable rewards and chances to advance in Monopoly GO. Don’t miss out on these events. Active participation is essential to stay competitive and maximize your progress.
Dice is a valuable resource in Monopoly GO. So don’t waste them unnecessarily. Save your dice for strategic maneuvers and key moments to optimize your gameplay efficiency.
Don’t aimlessly accumulate excess cash in Monopoly GO. Invest strategically to expand your empire and maximize your profitability. Wise financial management is the key to success in the game.
After learning these strategies, are you more confident in playing this unique board game? I hope you have fun playing Monopoly GO and achieve “wealth freedom”!
When you enter Skyline Valley in Fallout 76, you’ll see a storm looming above you, and you’ll realize that things here differ from the rest of Appalachia. You’ll then be introduced to Lands Unknown quest, which will tell you more about Stolz family and their security, James Oberlin.
In Vault 63, Audrey and Hilda are working to mitigate the threat of the storm and try to figure out how to slow down Hugo Stolz from becoming a Lost. Unfortunately, the path forward isn’t smooth, and you’ll need to help Hilda solve some science problems during your time in The Powerhouse of the Cell.
The Powerhouse of the Cell quest begins after you’ve spoken to James Oberlin and completed Housekeeping For Hire's quest. During the conversation, you’ll learn that some Organics Sector alarms have been set off, and Hilda is heading there to fix the problem.
Open your map and you will see a place marked, head straight to Shining Creek Caverns. Until you see a large hole that may be a natural formation, this is your entrance to Organics Sector.
Remember to have some Fallout 76 Items, especially weapons in your hands at this time, because there are Radscorpions waiting for you in the cave. After repelling them, go down the stairs and head towards a door marked “Research”. Organics Sector is on the right-hand side as you enter the foyer area. You will also have to fight a group of Lost enemies. After killing them, you will see a bright path leading to Hilda’s location.
After you successfully complete the above path, you will see Hilda in the office and by talking to her, you can learn about the experiments being carried out. She tells you that she is looking for a way to return the Lost to normal human form and needs your help in her experiments.
You need to help her find three serums to complete The Powerhouse of the Cell.
Your first mission requires going to Greenhouse area of Pharmaceutical Wing. There will be many Losts that will attack you blindly on this path. Remember to kill them directly to create a path for yourself.
After you finish fighting the Lost, go downstairs and look for a green cactus-like plant - Henry. It is difficult to find because it is hidden next to a pile of stacked boxes. After collecting the sample from Henry, immediately go to Pharmaceutical R&D lab and use the sample to create the first serum - Serum Alpha.
At this time, you need to return to the laboratory where you just talked to Hilda and find a device that you can interact with. Here is a hint of its location. It is on the wall and has a periodic table nailed to it.
After activating this device, you need to turn around and cross the hall in front of you to reach Clinical Trials chamber one. Inject the serum into the sedated Lost on the table and wait for him to change.
But unfortunately, he will still attack you, even more powerful than usual. After you defeat him, you may need to ask Hilda for an explanation. After she explains, follow her instructions and you will have to go to Greenhouse again.

Entering Greenhouse area again, you need to find Cave Gate Key on a table next to some other planting stations. Turn right and you will see this keyhole and a nearby pipe.
In this expedition, your goal is to collect samples of Unusual Fungus for Hilda, but there are still many mysterious things in this area, which you can explore carefully when you wander here later.
As you collect samples, you will be stalked by a terrible enemy, Shadow. The most unacceptable thing is that Shadow cannot be defeated, so you need to run as fast as possible to Unusual Fungus samples you need to collect, and you can shoot and scare Shadow away when necessary.
After you collect the samples, you also need to run back to Hilda quickly to get rid of Shadow. Hilda will ask you to inject this serum into another Lost in Biology Wing.
Similarly, this Lost will attack you after the injection, and it will jump up to attack. So you must ensure your flexibility and defeat it with excellent strategy. After you succeed, Hilda will give you the last piece of knowledge, Serum Omega.
Go through Fluid Handling section on the left side of your exit until you reach a Vat Storage room. It’s just behind a barrel of green liquid that looks very bad. Here you have to not only clean up the Lost, but also watch out for the green liquid under your feet.
In Vat Storage Control Room, you’ll find the last Lost floating in a tank. But to your surprise, this Lost is Hugo Stolz. After injecting the serum into him, just watch the results.
After you successfully complete the above tasks, follow Hilda’s advice and go up the stairs to the right - this is a shortcut back to the laboratory. When talking to Hilda in the laboratory, you’ll find that she is not very honest about these things.
Finally, you need to find Oberlin and report to him that Hilda is now safe. She will return soon.
After you report, Oberlin will give you The Powerhouse Of The Cell Rewards, which include:
After you complete The Powerhouse of the Cell, the Double-Crossed Wires quest will start immediately. Looking forward to your interesting exploration in the subsequent games!
Elden Ring is considered by players to be one of the greatest games of all time, so players are very much looking forward to the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, which is released on June 21st. I believe that many new and old players are very eager to figure out how to level up quickly in the new version and want to be fully prepared for the challenges in the expansion.
If you know a few simple tricks, you can help your character earn more Elden Ring Runes early or late in the game. These builds will become very lively and interesting, which will also make players who have multiple builds very excited.
There are many ways to farm Elden Ring Runes in Elden Ring, and with Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, players may need some very strong strategies to get as much experience points as possible while ensuring that is a fun thing rather than a chore. This guide will introduce 8 strategies that can let you get a head start before the release of Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Come and check it out!
The first major legacy dungeon most players encounter is Stormveil Castle in Limgrave area, which is occupied by archers, ballistae operators, and lumbering giants. For early game farming, just head to Liftside Chamber Site of Grace, where you’ll encounter Stormveil fighters in Courtyard. Since they’re facing away from you, you can easily sneak up on them.
Another good place to farm Elden Ring Runes in Limgrave area is the Stormfront Site of Grace. There’s a group of soldiers stationed to the east, but be aware that there are some horsemen near this site, so be aware of your position as you lure them out with the encampment. Further east, there are several giants tied to wagons that provide very generous runes.
It’s recommended that at the earliest levels, you take out the enemies in Stormfront area first, then consider fighting the giants. This way, you’ll have an easier time taking out the archers and ballistae operators in Stormveil Courtyard.
For those players who forgo Sentinel Dragon lore in Lands Between and just want to improve these build stats, they will get a huge EXP boost. First, find Fort Faroth Site of Grace in Dragonbarrow area in Caelid.
Approach Caelid from the left near Site of Grace and beat him up, making sure to get his health down to a low point. Jump on Torrent and land a few final blows with your weapon before his health runs out.
Once he goes from stationary to moving, quickly ride Torrent back to Site of Grace to rest, which will put the dragon into a reset state, meaning you’ll need to start over. Each time, it is possible to obtain over 50,000 Elden Ring Runes.
You’ll have a number of ways to get into Mohgwyn Palace, so I won’t go into detail. It offers one of the most popular rune farms for players as Albinauric population. Why is it so popular?
There are two reasons for this: these frog-like humanoids are relatively docile in Elden Ring; and the amount of runes they provide. With just a few weapon attacks or magic blasts, you can get about 40,000 runes in a few seconds.
This is also a good way to prepare for the supreme boss of this area, Lord of Blood Mohg. Mind you, defeating Mohg is also one requirement for obtaining Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Overall, this area provides players with some great ways to strengthen themselves and obtain outstanding equipment, such as Mohgwyn’s Sacred Spear.
After Mohg is defeated, remember to touch the withered arm in Mohgwyn’s Palace, and make sure to defeat Starscourge Radahn in Caelid. Together with defeating Mohg, these are the three indispensable requirements for gaining access to Shadow of the Erdtree.
After obtaining Golden Scarab Talisman, it is also very important to learn how to find the gold-pickled fowl foot, which can help you get more runes.
Once you have Golden Scarab equipped and consume a gold fowl foot, you can triple Elden Ring Runes you get from killing enemies in Albinaurics camping outside of Mohgwyn’s Palace, which is about 120,000 runes.
When clearing the dungeons in Lands Between or implementing other farming strategies, remember to use this multiplier strategy to earn you more runes.
Caelid is home to some of the deadliest enemies and environments in the game, but it is also home to some of the best farming spots. After discovering Lenne’s Rise in Caelid, simply ride Torrent downhill along the right side of the map, on the east side, until you are close to the giant archway.
During this time, you need to be very careful, because once you pass a certain point, a huge death-ball will appear and try to crush you. But don’t worry too much, just use your mount to rotate around the ball to avoid being crushed until it rolls down the hill. You can get about 2,000 Elden Ring Runes each time you do this, and it becomes very easy and quick to respawn and repeat.
Every time you respawn at Impassable Greatbridge Site of Grace, you’ll see a scene of chaos - knights and dogs twisted by the land of Caelid duke it out. Every time you respawn here, watching this chaos will earn you about 7,000 Elden Ring Runes. You can use this strategy to gain runes repeatedly.
Of course, items that can increase EXP like the golden scarab mentioned above will slightly increase these gains, but it should be noted that the golden scarab is more useful for killing enemies on the battlefield.
In fact, there are certain visual clues in Elden Ring that will let you know if you have a chance to gain additional Elden Ring Runes. For example, if you see a glowing white skull on the ground, this is a reminder that there may be a few runes hidden inside which can be crushed.
Similarly, enemies with glowing red eyes are not necessarily the most difficult to defeat, but they will definitely drop more EXP than similar enemies. Some players may have seen golden leaves floating around in certain areas of the recent Lands Between. These are Erdtree leaves.
They indicate that enemies will drop more runes than usual. Since these are randomly generated, many players will wait in the game until golden leaves fall in the sky.
Eventually, though, you need to find the runes used, such as Lord’s Runes and Hero’s Runes. These will give players 50,000 and 15-35,000 runes, respectively. These can be found in most areas of the game or can be obtained by defeating enemies.
Besides some common spawn locations and defeating bosses to get a lot of runes, the above 8 methods are also ways to get a lot of runes in a few hours to help you level up. Combined with these tips, you can train your character to a level that can enter Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Hope you are one step ahead of others when the new version is released on June 21st!
I believe that many readers were attracted by the title. It seems that everyone wants to upgrade to level 85 as soon as possible. Not only will there be more benefits, but they can also challenge higher-level bosses.In this guide, we’ll share some of the best tips and tricks to speed up your leveling process and get you into endgame content as quickly as possible.
While we’re focusing primarily on the level 80-85 grind in this guide, many of these tips can also be applied to any stage of your leveling journey. Let’s take a look!
If you haven’t joined a guild yet, now is the perfect time to do so. Joining a guild at this stage in WoW Cataclysm Classic has a lot of great perks that can significantly increase your leveling speed. For example, the Mount Up skill increases your mount speed, while Hasty Hearth reduces the cooldown of your Hearthstone.
Both skills can help you move around areas faster, which can speed up your overall speed. Additionally, you can complete quests and run instances with your guildmates, making completing quests more enjoyable and efficient.
Obtaining your flight controller license as soon as possible is the easiest way to increase your XP accumulation. Using flying mounts can greatly increase your leveling speed, especially as you level up your flying skill.
It’s recommended that you get upgrades from the faction with the highest reputation. Just make sure they have a flying trainer, and your reputation level discount will be high. For example, in Exalted, you can get up to 20% off, which can save you a lot of WoW Cataclysm Classic Gold.
To maximize your XP gains, you need to choose your zones carefully. If you start at level 80, it is best to start at Mount Hyjal. This will allow you to level up faster than the extremely difficult Vashj’ir. At level 82, you can go to Deepholm, where you can increase your Therazane reputation.
After that, go to Uldum and stay there until most of the quests are completed. Finally, you can finish your quest in Twilight Highlands and grind until level 85. This route is very effective and will help you gain more experience and explore new game content.
In WoW Cataclysm Classic, there are many spells that players can choose from and level up with the help of trainers. Although not every spell cast will allow you to return quickly to the capital, trying the powerful leveling spells between levels 80-85 is definitely worth considering.
For example, Flame Orb for Mages and Fel Flame for Warlocks both allow you to deal huge damage in combat, which can speed up your clearing and achieve the effect of leveling up faster.
Many of the quest lines in dungeons are very good to upgrade your experience and equipment. However, through the practice of players, it is known that this is only a supplemental source of XP, not the principal source, because not all players have such content.
However, if you have a group that allows you to run dungeons together, why not run more times? Why not learn some dungeon mechanics, see some bosses, and practice rotations while leveling up?
In addition, the dungeons in WoW Cataclysm Classic are improved, which is very different from the previous Wrath, which will definitely make you have a lot of fun exploring.
Some common consumables can provide you with temporary buffs that allow you to gain experience points temporarily. For example, Battle Standard of Coordination and Banner of Cooperation items can provide you and your guild members with some experience and reputation boosts.
These boosts mainly come from the enemies you and your guild members kill. The more enemies you kill, the higher the experience points. While these boosts aren’t huge, at no more than 15% and only last a few minutes, they’re still a great way to help you level up.
This tip won’t get you to level 85 like the previous ones, but it’s the easiest to accomplish. Because reputation is a very important thing in WoW Cataclysm Classic, and it can even be said to be very valuable.
First, you should strive to be at least friendly with every faction in the zone, so that you can unlock their Tabards. Earning reputation points doesn’t take a lot of extra time and is a great addition to your leveling process.
Understanding the logic of your class will always give you an advantage in PVP or in unusual situations. It allows you to improvise or use strange combinations of skills and talents, making you the ultimate BiS Meta player because you know what to do while PUGs in raids or dungeons don’t.
That’s all for this guide. I hope these tips are useful to you and can help you level up faster in WoW Cataclysm Classic. Have fun exploring Azeroth!
There are various bosses in the game that you need to find and find ways to defeat them, and this is also the case in Elden Ring. Astel, Naturalborn of the Void, has annoying teleports and almost predatory grabs, which make it one of the most difficult bosses in Elden Ring.
However, Astel, Naturalborn of the Void, is still a boss worth choosing to help you progress in Ranni’s questline.
In this guide, you will learn how to find Astel, Naturalborn of the Void in Elden Ring and find its weaknesses to defeat it. Follow this guide and you’ll be ready to shine in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC when it releases on June 21st!
Astel is located in a separate area south of Lake of Rot. You will reach here when advancing Ranni’s questline. You need to first go to Grand Cloister Grace in Lake of Rot, cross the ledge to the ground, find the coffin, and then ride the coffin down the waterfall. This way you can reach this area.
Then in this area you need to go west until the end of the hallway, at the end of the hallway turn left and you will find a coffin. You need to enter the coffin, and then you will respawn in a new area. From this respawn point, go north, and then you will find the fog door leading to Astel.
If you are not well prepared before fighting Astel, his attacks will wipe out more than half of your health. However, if you prepare some weapons, incantations and spells in advance, it will make the battle easier, so it is worth spending Elden Ring Runes to get these items, which will make Astel less of a difficult boss for you.
Frostbite, Sleep, and Madness will not harm Astel because it is immune to them. However, Poison, Scarlet Rot and Bleed will easily cause damage to it. Therefore, you can integrate your equipment into these corresponding weapons, incantations, and spells.
Astel is also less vulnerable to elemental damage (magic, fire, lightning, and holy) due to his defenses, even though he is not completely immune to the damage you can throw at him, the damage won’t be as great as it normally would be. While Astel has strong defenses against elemental damage, he is weak against physical damage. Therefore, magic users can use gravity sorceries to take advantage of the range advantage.
Here are some weapons, incantations, and spells that can help you against Astel, Naturalborn of the Void:
Any weapon with Poison, Scarlet Rot, and Bleed effects. Poison, Scarlet Rot, and Bleed status effects can cause Astel to deal heavy damage. Therefore, find a weapon with any of these effects and upgrade it as much as possible.
Rotten Breath Incantation. This Incantation is obtained by obtaining a dragon heart and taking it to Cathedral of Dragon Communion in Caelid. Rotten Breath Incantation can cause heavy damage to it through Scarlet Rot.
Rock Sling Sorcery. This Sorcery can be found in a chest north of Street of Sages Ruins in Caelid. Rock Sling Sorcery is a gravity Sorcery with great tracking and range. You can use this spell from a distance when fighting Astel to avoid most of its attacks. If you find Meteorite Staff on a corpse in Street of Sages Ruins and combine it with Rock Sling Sorcery, this will increase the damage by thirty percent, making the fight much easier.
It is worth noting that you should level up your attributes and upgrade your weapons and spirit ashes before fighting Astel. You can also use Mimic Tear Ash to distract Astel and take most of the damage.
You should not always stand right in front of Astel when fighting him, even if you know that Astel’s weak point is his head, because some of the most damaging moves he uses require the use of the pincer attached to his head. Instead, you should watch the majority of his body to determine most of his attack cues and stand a little further away, as these cues can be very hidden.
Generally, you need to know how Astel prepares to attack and try to avoid it, then attack him in the head. Here are some moves you need to master to defeat Astel.
Astel will charge a purple ball and fire a laser directly at you when you enter the boss's arena. Since there is a little time to prepare, you don’t have to dodge immediately. However, you can use dodge roll first to master the timing. You will have time to summon Mimic Tear Ash or any Spirit Ashes of your choice after Astel fires the laser.
Astel’s three left hands quickly raise three purple balls, then slam them into the ground, releasing three expanding shockwaves. You can use dodge roll to avoid this move while running away. After all, it can be very difficult to react to this attack in time.
Astel raises a purple ball in each of his six hands into the air, then slams it into the ground, releasing three expanding shockwaves. This attack is similar to the previous one, but the preparation time is much longer, and you also need to keep your distance from Astel to avoid being hit by the expanding shockwaves.
Astel will charge up, then throw you into the air before slamming you back down to the ground. You can keep your distance from Astel while he charges up, and then attack him after he finishes his attack.
Astel will create a purple ball in one hand, then wave his hand in front of him, leaving a purple shroud that explodes in a split second. There are several variations of this attack that all work similarly, and you need to watch out for the single purple ball. However, you may have enough time to get through the shroud and attack his head, depending on your distance from Astel.
The biggest threat to your defeat in the entire fight is Astel’s teleport, which can cause you to be grabbed by them. Particles gather above Astel to form a large sphere that teleports Astel away. Astel can teleport to another location to attack you, and this attack is very deadly. When he starts to teleport, sprint away and watches behind you. If they teleport above you, try to watch their arms and dodge when they start to dive as if they are hugging you. This attack can cause a lot of damage and can even kill you, so avoid it if possible.
Astel will teleport away from you and summon rings behind him, which will shoot out Meteors at you. This is another teleport attack. You can avoid these Meteors by running to the side and dodging when necessary.
The last thing you need to watch out for is any movement of Astel’s main body features. For example, you should be careful of their pincers if they start to twitch, and their tails if they start to wag.
After defeating Astel, Naturalborn of the Void, you will receive Remembrance of the Naturalborn, which can be exchanged for Waves of Darkness Ash of War or Bastard’s Stars. For those who complete Ranni’s quest, a path to Cathedral of Manus Celes will be unlocked.
With the above, you can clearly know the location of Astel, Naturalborn of the Void in Elden Ring, his weaknesses, and how to deal with him when fighting him. Hopefully, this will help you win the game!
New content in the game brings new experiences to players. The same is true for Fallout 76’s new map Skyline Valley. The official release date of Fallout 76’s new map Skyline Valley is June 12.
Fallout 76 Skyline Valley update expands the game map southward to the newly discovered region of the same name. This uncharted territory, nestled in the vast Appalachian Mountains, offers opportunities for exploration and unearthing long-held secrets. A never-ending thunderstorm rages overhead, hinting at a powerful and potentially unstable anomaly.
This guide will give you tips and tricks on some of the new content in the new map.
As we investigate the mysterious Vault 63, questions about the fate of the inhabitants and their current state are endless, and the quest takes a deeper turn. We’ll also discover a new type of horrible Ghoul called ‘ The Lost’ inside Vault. And, we’ll be able to play as a Ghoul.
One of the main bosses in this world will be robots, which means that anything that reduces your damage to robots or increases your damage to robots will be changed after this DLC is released. If you want to play more damage, Fallout 76 Bottle Caps can help you upgrade and have more equipment.
Cleaning up your Stash Space is a breeze. If you are a new player of Fallout, you can forget about this. But if you have been playing for a long time and have a habit of hoarding everything. You better check your weapons and armor to make sure you don’t have anything you will never use. For example, there is a 15 pound flamethrower, which you can only sell here in exchange for Legend Scripts.
However, you may have a bunch of such things that you don’t use, and you can put them in your Junk. Take a closer look, maybe you haven’t scrapped everything, and some of the unused things are really heavy.
If you have a bunch of extra junk that you don’t need, you can craft it and turn it into Bulk, just like Bulk Screws and Bulk Gears. Then you can sell it to traders in exchange for some caps if you are overloaded on junk.
Now is probably the best time to start moving your ammo from here to your actual character. Because I use things like Gatling, Plasma, which require Plasma cores, they take up a fair bit of weight, a pound each. Even 40 mm Grenade Rounds are pretty heavy for a missile if you’re only using that weapon, it’s going to be up to 200 pounds.
If you’re using shells of that weight and a heavy equipment build, then you’re just going to want to shift the overall weight from Junk to your ammo and even your armor. And if you put Deep Pocketed mods on your armor, it’ll give you 10 carry weight per piece.
If you use Deep Pocketed on more armor, you can carry more stuff, and the more you carry, the faster you’ll be in the game. This way you can avoid making fewer trips, sell less stuff, and make the experience more enjoyable.
If you have a backpack, you can carry more stuff. Standard Backpack gives you 30 carry weight at level 50. By the time you complete the Boy Scout quest, these backpacks will give you 60 carry weight.
Some foods will also increase your carry weight, like Grilled Rat Toad, which will increase your carry weight by 10 even after you’ve eaten it.
Legendary Scripts will probably be something you need again. You’ll want to start stocking up on them at the very beginning of the game so you can Mass Roll. From experience, if you just get them by doing daily quests, it’s usually not enough. But if you save a bunch of Scripts and do a bunch of Rolls, most of the time Rolls will be much better.
If you want to get a good character with a brand new weapon or gear and a brand new unique weapon build, you need to be as efficient as possible with Farm Legendary Scripts.
You’ll want to get enough Farm Sources before the new content is released. It’s much better to do it with friends when you’re playing this DLC. If you don’t want to be the one going to go get the wood or go mine Black Titanium to craft the recipes, prepare the resources ahead of time now, or before you play with friends and the story is finished. If you’re playing solo, you just do things at your own pace.
Another thing you’ll want to do when this DLC is released is to make a lot of ammo. Ammo is a very needed thing in this game. For 99% of the ammo in this game, you need Steeland and Gunpowder. If it’s Special Ammo, you might need something like Adhesive or Rubber, but Steeland and Gunpowder are better to be the main priority.
You need to know which Perk Cards can make your build special. When you are in the process of leveling up, check your legendary perks to make sure you have an Intelligence Card. If you are a new player or you just want to level up faster, Intelligence Card will give you more XP.
From some people who were granted early access, I heard that Rads will be more useful because enough areas are full of Ghouls. However, this will be very monotonous for players running Bloodied Builds. For players who don’t run Bloodied Builds, Rads is a great Perk, you won’t be spamming Radway and Rad-X every 4 seconds.
C.A.M.P. Budget is important for every player and may even be one of the main motivations for some players to play this game. There will be some new things added to Atom Shop in Skyline Valley, so it is very important to check your budget and see if you want to clear the space. You’d better plan in advance how to design and make to plan your budget reasonably.
People who use Power Armor have Fusion Cores, but you need all Flux to make Fusion Cores, or the Atom Shop actually sometimes sells Fusion Core Recharger which just charges your Fusion Cores, which you can get from here. But for those players who don’t plan to get it from Atom Shop, you can collect Flux from the dropped Nuke location, so when someone drops a Nuke somewhere on the map, there will usually be a bunch of flowers here to pick, which will give you all Flux you need to make Fusion Cores.
Through the above content, I believe you have learned about the new content of the game and some related tips. I hope that with more adequate preparation, you can enjoy the next game journey more!
Before playing the game, players need to choose the right players to win the game. The selection of Designated Hitters is particularly important for MLB The Show 24. The role of Designated Hitters in baseball games is to replace the pitcher in the batting order with another player in the lineup.
Designated Hitters must focus mainly on offensive statistics, as their main area of expertise should be swinging the bat and hearing the crack of the ball when it makes contact. Designated Hitters come on the field late in the game and play one of the defensive positions, including the pitching role, but must be designated before the game starts.
This article will show you the best players in this role who will play a key role in the bottom of the ninth inning and hit a wonderful walk-off home run to win the game.
Charlie Blackmon has a 96 contact rate against left-handed pitchers, and he has enough power to hit the ball deep enough to reach first base and put himself in a position to score, as his Arm Strength is 84. This makes the lack of defensive awareness not affect it too much.
Eloy Jimenez is able to withstand high pitch counts and make contact with pitches just outside the strike zone, as he scores 84 in batting clutch points.
He can swing hard against both left-handed and right-handed pitchers, and his contact is one of his best weapons, especially against right-handed pitchers. You can get it through MLB The Show 24 Stubs.
Harold Ramirez can play long games and get multiple at-bats in a game, and with his strong Batting Clutch and Durability ratings, Ramirez is also good at reading pitches and determining when to swing for the best hit.
Against left-handed pitchers, Harold Ramirez’s swing-to-strike rating is 99, but against right-handed pitchers, it’s only 80.
Joey Meneses’ Contact Swing is powerful against both Left and Right-Handed pitchers, and Joey Meneses’ 87-level Power Swing is also a big threat to those Left-Handed pitchers.
Joey Meneses can play multiple positions, including second base, left field, and right field, but his defensive stats lack the depth to be a full-time player.
Giancarlo Stanton has pure power, with a power rating of 96 against right-handed pitchers and 87 against lefties. Stanton doesn’t strike out often because of his 80 Batting Clutch. However, his Fielding and Reaction numbers are poor.
McCutchen’s contact swing has a solid 71 rating, while his power swing is a whopping 93. Durability rating is 82, and Plate Discipline is 98. On defense, McCutchen is still capable of outfield.
Marcell Ozuna is all about power, 85 against Right-Handed Pitchers and 98 against Left-Handed Pitchers. His batting key stats are 72. His only weakness is a lack of vision, which may affect the chances of more difficult pitches. And his lack of durability and defensive performance are also below par.
Byron Buxton can instinctively catch balls hit into the outfield faster and has the power to put the ball back in play and minimize the damage. This is related to his 89 Fielding data that perfectly matches his 80 Arm Strength.
Bryce Harper is famous for his contact swing. The reason why Bryce Harper can keep hitting home runs despite high pitch counts is because of Plate Discipline 99 and Batting Clutch 90.
Bryce Harper performs well in the outfield defense and is a player that many people like to use during the season.
Shohei Ohtani’s strengths are Velocity, Break, Pitching Clutch and Arm Strength. Shohei Ohtani has excellent power for both right-handed and left-handed pitchers, and his Plate Discipline is 93 and Batting Clutch is 88, which gives him plenty of chances to hit the ball out of the park.
Shohei Ohtani has received a perfect score of 99 in MLB The Show series for two consecutive years. He is not only the best designated hitter but also the best pitcher in MLB The Show 24.
By understanding the characteristics and abilities of these players, I believe you have made a better choice to win the game. So choose your Designated Hitters and start the game!
Knowing what's coming to the game and what's changing before embarking on the journey is essential for any game, and this is also true in Elder Scrolls Online.
Since 2017 Morrowind expansion, Elder Scrolls Online has been recognized as one of the most popular modern MMOs. Elder Scrolls Online: Gold Road marks the eighth chapter of this fantasy MMO game, which has been launched for 10 years since 2014. Gold Road offers some exciting features that fans have been craving since Elder Scrolls Online was first released.
This article will show you what new content Gold Road has in store for us in 2024 to help you prepare for the start of the game in advance.
Gold Road is one of the largest Chapters for Elder Scrolls Online to date, second only to Craglorn and Vvardenfell in size.
Gold Road retains some iconic locations from The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, such as the city of Skingrad in the southwestern region of Cyrodiil. However, not only has the previous content been retained, but some new locations have been added as well.
The latest Chapter takes place in the West Weald, which is made up of three different sub-regions. The southeastern region makes up the Autumn Gold Road, whose capital is the city of Skingrad. The southwestern region is the newly emerged Dawnwood jungle, bordering the Valenwood province and some Wood Elf settlements. The northern region is home to the Colovian Highlands, which is dotted with Ayleid ruins and Imperial settlements. There is also the mysterious Wildburn region where brand new creatures and plants grow, influenced by the magical creations of the Dawnwood jungle.
Gold Road is a direct sequel to the last Chapter for Elder Scrolls Online, Necrom, and the second part of the seventh main story. Elder Scrolls Online generally takes place in Second Era, before the events of Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim.
Mirrormoore Incursion is a dynamic world event caused by the mysterious Daedric entity Valkynaz. These Daedric entities attempt to invade West Weald through Oblivion Portals created by Ritualists.
You will encounter waves of Daedric Occultists in West Weald to prevent further invasions. Six Valkynaz boss battles will bring rich rewards and lore details.
You can enhance your game strength through Elder Scrolls Online Gold, increase the chance of winning battles against enemies, and make it easier to level up in the game.
Through Mirrormoore Incursions that appear in the area and the dialogue between NPCs discussing new threats, we can feel the presence of the main villain, the forgotten Daedric Prince Ithelia. But Gold Road does not just deliver the classic Oblivion atmosphere, the mysterious Dawn Forest jungle also appears in the southwest. Unprecedented turmoil and mysterious subversion in the wilds of the West make the journey full of mystery and turmoil.
Scribe is the biggest game change in Gold Road Chapter. If you have the patience to complete the lengthy tutorial, Scribe will satisfy your desire to create your own spells in Elder Scrolls Online like in other Elder Scrolls games.
Scribe includes a Grimoire (skill type) and a Script that defines the skill parameters. There are 11 Grimoires to unlock in the game, as well as Focus Scripts that define the main function, Signature Scripts that add unique effects to skills, and Affix Scripts that add unique Buff/Debuff to skills.
You need to put in a lot of effort to unlock the various Scripts required in the 11 skill Grimoires. You can unlock Scribe through multiple multi-part quest chains involving Mages Guild. We strongly recommend that you complete Scribe multi-part quest chain in Gold Road Chapter first, as its components are only unlocked when the quest is active.
In Gold Road you can further customize your skills through Skill Styles. You can unlock most Skill Styles through level achievements and quests. In total, Gold Road includes 22 Skill Styles, which will allow you to customize the aesthetic characteristics of various Scribe and non-Scribe skills. More Skill Styles may appear in future updates. Aesthetic options range from colors to different animations, although customizing sound effects is not possible at this time.
Gold Road finally implements a feature that veterans of the decade-old MMO have been asking for. The new feature is the ability to inject status effects into light and heavy attacks.
Gold Road actually includes 10 new item sets for you to find and craft, but Threads of War is the one that players should be most aware of, as it adds status effects directly to attacks.
Trials are essentially Elder Scrolls Online's ultimate raid dungeon content for teams of 12 players. Lucent Citadel is said to be the most difficult and complex 'trial' dungeon yet, and is located in Daedric vault on Fargrave Oblivion Plane.
This Trial dungeon follows the lost Daedric Prince Ithelia as she launches a frantic search for a mysterious relic called Arcane Knot, which causes untold trouble for your old ally Keshargo.
Elder Scrolls Online developers say Lucent Citadel is their most experimental dungeon yet, with obstacles that go far beyond combat, and even hints at levitation effects in promotional materials.
Elder Scrolls Online is one of the most welcoming MMOs to new players. As encouraged by Elder Scrolls Online's level scaling system, Elder Scrolls Online's entire library of Chapter content can be completed in any non-linear order you can imagine, regardless of player level, making revisiting previous areas engaging and fun. With the introduction of Scribing and the addition of the West Weald region, now is the best time to experience Elder Scrolls Online.
Elder Scrolls Online itself lacks a comprehensive story summary of events. If a new player is not already aware of Necrom's ongoing storyline, it will not be able to understand the plot sequence of Gold Road and review events. After all, Gold Road follows the cliffhanger at the end of Necrom. Even though the game can read the lore book, we still recommend that you first understand the comprehensive timeline of events of all Chapters in Elder Scrolls Online.
Like the previous major Chapters of Elder Scrolls Online, the story of Gold Road takes about 15 hours to complete. However, there are also Mirrormoor Incursions, Lucent Citadel, Side Dungeon, Quest, 6 World/Delve bosses and 10 sets of items, as well as numerous other collectibles to discover. As mentioned earlier, the new Scribe system brings new grinding in the form of Grimoires and Scripts, and if you get them for multiple created characters, the time they take will increase.
After reading this article, you have some understanding of the new content of Gold Road. On this basis, you should also make a choice whether to experience the new game. I hope that our display of the new content of the game can help you get a head start in the game.
World of Warcraft Cataclysm expansion was a significant change for Azeroth and the people who live there, and the release of Cataclysm Classic gives players a chance to revisit the glory days of 14 years ago. While the most obvious changes to Cataclysm are the reimagined zones and new quests after Deathwing, the most significant is the overhaul of the player guilds system, which now has its own leveling system, perks, and guildwide achievements.
WoW Cataclysm Classic makes some changes to the guild perks and leveling system compared to the original version. Today we spoke to lead software engineer Nora Valletta and principal game designer Kris Zierhut to talk about why the team wanted to make the change.
They told us before the conversation that one of the main reasons was that the original guild system encouraged players to join super guilds, which actually went against the original spirit of the guild and needed to be urgently resolved.
In the early days of World of Warcraft, players were advised to join a guild because the sense of community is a huge draw in MMORPG-style games. Recognizing this, Blizzard wanted to improve the game’s guilds system and introduced a leveling system for guilds to encourage players to join.
At first, it seemed like a good idea to allow players to level up a guild together to earn rewards, thereby strengthening the community. But this approach has led to the destruction of smaller guilds.
The leveling system for guilds encourages you to build a guild with numerous members, because the size of the guild does not change the experience rewards you can get. This means that a large guild will give you the same rewards as a small guild, but a small guild will be difficult to level up, and a large guild will be easy to fill up.
After the release, Nora said that she found that some players in small guilds would quit their guilds and join the large guilds to get more rewards. And those newly formed guilds could not find people to join. They were very sorry for the demise of these small guilds, which prompted them to want to change.
Nora sighed and told us that they knew very clearly that this was a problem for players and would bring some difficulties and unhappiness to players, so they couldn’t make the same mistake again.
With mounts, pets, and transmogrification appearances, World of Warcraft players go to great lengths to get them. But because some of these items are locked into a leveling system for guilds, it creates a lot of impersonal, large guilds. New players invite a lot of players to join for these rewards, which attracts more players with similar requirements.
So in WoW Cataclysm Classic, the leveling system for guilds was changed to a guild reputation system. Players can earn a reputation in a guild just like any faction in the game, and rewards are awarded based on reputation. This will not only allow smaller guilds to survive, but also prevent players from joining and leaving to retain their reputation.
Guild perks are more valued by players than mounts, tabards, and pets. Likewise, guild perks are only available in large guilds. These perks can increase the speed of a player’s mounts, allow them to bank or send messages to members of their own guild as needed.
Zierhut told us that many perks are now granted to players immediately when they join any guild, and one of them is the removal of Cash Flow perk. In original Cataclysm, when you had Cash Flow, every time you defeated an enemy, you would receive an additional 10% of WOW Cataclysm Classic Gold, which would be automatically deposited into your guild bank.
This idealistic view does sound good, but some opportunistic players will take these extra rewards directly from the guild leader. Zierhut explained that the original intention of creating guilds was to be a place for communication, not this. The change they are making is to make guilds a means for teams to move towards one or more common goals.
In addition to the removal of Cash Flow perk, “Have Group, Will Travel” was also changed. This perk was also very bad in terms of player response, as it made summoning stones completely useless and would teleport the entire group to the location you needed.
This caused some players to be interrupted immediately while doing their own quests, interrupting their game progress. The perk was eventually removed from the WoW Cataclysm Classic world after one expansion, which was good news for many players.
Although some players may not be used to these changes, they should not feel pressured. The creative team has been working hard to make the most appropriate changes to the guild since the release of World of Warcraft Cataclysm Classic, and they also hope to see more posts on social media from players praising this change. Finally, I wish you have a merry game with them!
I’ve been noticing a disturbing trend lately of getting big backpacks and the mods that improve them in a cumbersome and time-consuming way.
So in this guide, I want to show you how to get the plans for the backpack and the mods in the easiest way possible. And by that, I mean getting it by completing as few challenges as possible. I’m going to start with a new character so you can see that anyone can do it.
For this run, I’m going to use Commando Build, as it gives you some weapons you’ll need.
Our first step is to complete Order of the Tadpole. This quest naturally starts when you come across the poster at the train station, but you can bypass it by heading to Pioneer Scout Camp in Toxic Valley region.
The easiest route is to follow the road, around the north of Morgantown, past the dam, and then to the camp. Once there, talk to the robot. Now you’re on your way to becoming a true scout, but you need to complete four more quests.
The first mission we need to complete is Revive an Ally. The revive challenge is fairly easy if you know someone who can play with you, but for most people, the best way to do it is to participate in public events.
Luckily, Invaders from Beyond were going on at the time, as a lot of people died to Biometric Scanner.
Invasion is a little tough for new characters, but if you try to avoid the big hordes of aliens, you should be fine. But don’t try to kill the enemies, just tag them and move on to the next one. Let the person with Cremator take them out.
The same trick applies to big events like Eviction Notice, a lot of people tend to die in big events like this, and it seems that I was no exception. This was by far the hardest requirement, and I was lucky to complete it so easily.
Other events that are good for reviving players are Moonshine Jamboree and Eviction Notice, but you should participate in each event just in case. The key is that the more players are around, the greater the chance that you need to revive someone. Daily Ops are also good, especially those with Double Mutations.
Another lucky event happens near Pioneer Camp in Mire area. It usually takes some time to find the camp, so join a group. If you see players or their camps or tents in the area, fast travel there and discover at least one location in Mire. You can use events to fast travel to Mire in the same way.
Once you know at least one location in Mire, you can save time by fast travelling, though you have to pay for Bottle Caps.
Next, talking to the bot will start Stings and Things daily quest. By default, it will send you to a location that is guaranteed to have every insect, but it doesn’t matter where you get them from, the goal is to get insect parts.
I recommend attending Campfire Tales and Tea Time events every time they appear. They give you a lot of insects, so they are by far the easiest way to get insect parts.
You will definitely end up with a lot of Bloatflies and Bloodbugs, and most likely a few other insects you need as well. Keep these Fallout 76 Items in your stash until you need them to complete the daily quest. Remember not to put them in the scrap bin or you’ll damage them.
There will definitely be a Radroach in the storage room at Pioneer Camp in Mire. But it’s behind a hard lock, so you might not get it early. Another place you can get Radroaches is at Mama Dolce’s Food Processing, where Feed the People event takes place. If you get there early enough, you can pick up some Radroaches. But Radroaches are pretty common, so you can get enough Radroaches just by playing.
The best place to get Ticks is right behind the camp office. Stingwings can be found south of Whitespring. Also, Ranger Cabin behind Pioneer Scout Camp in Mire tends to have some insects, so it’s not a bad idea to check there every time you come here, too.
Another tip is that you can set up a camp or a tent at this location. You’ll come back at least once a day, so this will save you a lot of caps.
This objective involves cleaning up Nuclear Waste. This is another daily quest that sends you to a nearby location. You should clean up 5 blocks of Nuclear Waste. This time we were sent to Corporate, but you could also be sent to the ruins of the town in the south. This is fairly easy. The biggest problem is dealing with the enemies.
If you have a Hazmat Suit or Power Armor, you can reduce the radiation damage you take by doing this. Once you are done, return to Scout Camp and deposit the waste in the blue barrel.
Unfortunately, you also need to complete three Tadpole challenges. You can find them under Challenges Section and World Subsection. Any three will do, but I highly recommend taking on Archer, Athletics, and Hunter challenges. They are the easiest. If you want to get a bigger backpack as quickly as possible, the challenges I mentioned are what you want to do.
Another way to get Tadpole Badges is to do Operation Tidy and clean up Nuclear Waste. You can do this every day for a 25% chance of getting Tadpole Badges, but only if you haven’t completed the mission and become Opossum.
So if you really want something from Tadpole vendor, hold off on buying Opossum until you’ve got enough Tadpole Badges.
Overall, the quest is fairly straightforward. If you followed this guide, you should have met all the quest requirements. Now it’s time to become a Possum Scout.
You’ll get a backpack painted with the possum paint. This backpack has twice the capacity of the small backpack you’ve had so far. In addition, the quest will get you the plan and the paint.
You can recraft the backpack every 10 levels, up to level 50, to increase its capacity. The maximum carrying capacity is 60. Of course, this only applies outside of Power Armor.
When you wear Power Armor, the game removes all of your normal armor, so keep that in mind if you rely on the backpack to keep your load. But if you want Tadpole items, you can still complete other Tadpole challenges to get badges.
Becoming a Possum also gives you the ability to earn Possum Badges, and use them to get backpack mods and more.
In my opinion, the best mod is Backpack high capacity mod, which doubles your carry bonus. This will give you a total of 120 extra carry capacity. But Backpack refrigerated mod cuts the chance of food spoiling in half. I personally prefer Good with Salt perk, as it reduces spoilage by 90%, but backpack mods don’t stack with perks.
Of course, you can also get Grocer and Chemist mods for the backpack. They work exactly like the perk, reducing the weight of food and aid items by 90%.
You usually need to have at least a friendly reputation with raiders or the settlers, but the easiest way is to wait for Minerva to get it.
If you still want to gain a reputation with the faction, then do daily quests at their camps and Moonshine Jamboree and Eviction Notice events.
But the reason I don’t use these two mods is that they stop working in Power Armor, while the perk always works. They’re still good options for people who need to free up perks or never use Power Armor.
In summary, if you do these four things every day, you’ll get quite a few bags without having to do any heavy challenges. You’ll probably still get badges from playing the game, but it’s much easier to get badges from activities, especially if you want to get mods as quickly as possible.
It’s impossible to say how many days it will take to get enough badges to get the mods you want, but in terms of time actually spent on challenges, this way is much more efficient.
Eventually, you’ll get the upgrades you want, and you’ll also get more Legendary Cores, Treasury Notes, and Legendary items than if you just did challenges everywhere. So, this is by far the easiest way to get a big backpack and backpack mods to increase its capacity.
Welcome, fellow players! I'm excited to share with you 5 key strategies to drastically enhance your damage output in Elder Scrolls Online. These strategies are specifically designed to optimize your performance in trial boss fights of progression group content. Let's dive in!
In ESO, enemies typically have armor ranging from 9.1k in overland encounters to 18.2k in dungeons and trials. This armor effectively reduces damage by 1% for every 500 armor points. Without penetration, only about 64% of damage bypasses their defenses.
Even a slight shortfall, like 5k armor, results in a significant 10% reduction in damage effectiveness, underscoring the importance of penetration. For target dummies, a modest 1.2k penetration is usually adequate. Casual trials may demand 3k, 4k, or even 5k, though experienced groups often require less.
Consistently applying Major and Minor Breach debuffs, ideally supplemented by Crusher and a Crimson Oath proc, helps reduce the target's armor, leaving around 3.6k remaining. Extra penetration may be necessary against trash mobs, but it's vital to prioritize targets and avoid over-penetration. Adjust penetration based on group debuffs and the target's armor level for optimal damage.
When gearing up for trials in the Elder Scrolls Online, priority sets with Minor Slayer, typically found in trial sets or the Oakensoul Ring. While the Oakensoul Ring can suffice for trials, it mainly has duplicates buffs already provided by trial groups.
For optimal performance, focus on group-wide buffs rather than solo setups. Minor Slayer stands out as a unique self-applied buff, offering free damage that grows more valuable with increased damage output. Don’t worry if you don’t have this trial set. While Minor Slayer enhances performance, it's not essential for dealing significant damage.
When preparing for group content, it's crucial not to rely solely on one setup. While boss fights may share similarities with dummy testing, trash pack encounters present unique challenges. Rather than focusing solely on sustained single-target damage, prioritize setups with significant AOE capabilities.
These moments can often be the most perilous in trials, with elite ads like Bulwarks, Reavers, and Soulweavers in the Rockgrove Trail posing significant threats if allowed to remain active for too long. Having a setup that excels in handling trash mobs separately from boss encounters is essential.
While a versatile setup like an Arcanist with the Coral Riptide set and Deadly Strike set may suffice, it's far more effective to have a dedicated trash setup. Experiment with various weapons and abilities, such as Master's Greatsword, Inferno Staves, Whirling Blades, and Fiery Rage, to find what works best for you.
The critical hits in the Elder Scrolls Online are crucial but often overlooked. Critical hits deal 50% more damage than regular hits at no additional cost, representing a significant damage boost. Therefore, maximizing your critical strike chance is essential.
The critical damage stat amplifies this bonus further, increasing it up to 125%. This means critical hits can deal 2.25 times the damage of regular hits. For example, a 20,000 hit becomes a 45,000 crit, significantly boosting damage output.
Damage builds typically prioritize critical damage, utilizing elements like minor force, medium armor pieces with the divines trait, and the Harpooner's Wading Kilt set to enhance critical chance, unless the class already has a crit passive.
By combining bonuses like major fracture, minor brittle, loosen, echoes, or the Elemental Catalyst effects, you can easily reach the crit cap, often exceeding 30% in additional bonuses. While managing critical damage may seem complex, using skills like the Backstabber, Fighting Finesse with the Sul-Xan's Torment set and axes can help compensate for lacking ESO Items.
Optimizing your performance in the Elder Scrolls Online requires careful consideration of Champion Points' allocation and group composition. Here are the key points to keep in mind:
