In the upcoming version 0.2.0 patch update in late March, the developers will add a series of new content to the game. These include new support gems, new unique items, and even there will be a high probability of releasing a new class.
However, among the adjustments announced by the developers for POE 2, there is one point that is controversial among players, that is, the adjustment to Lost Towers. They added the mechanism of Lost Towers to make it have richer content for players to explore. But not all players are satisfied with this.
In the preview of the 0.2.0 patch, the official said that they will change the mechanism of Lost Towers in the next update, so that players can encounter random rare enemies or even BOSSes in the process of exploring the tower. At the same time, the next version of Lost Towers will also be affected by Precursor Tablets, changing the distribution of monsters. That is to say, Lost Towers will give birth to more monsters for players to sweep.
It is not possible to judge whether this change is good or bad. Let’s take a look at how Lost Towers perform in the endgame of the 0.1.0 patch.
In the endgame, players explore Lost Towers basically to open up new maps, and then insert Precursor Tablets on Lost Towers to affect the appearance of modifiers.
If players have Waystones with very bad attributes, or Waystones that become worse under the influence of Vaal Orb, then players usually choose to use these Waystones on Lost Towers.
Because Lost Towers have very low returns, and basically no rare items will be dropped. And there are no activities. Therefore, there is no loss in dropping Waystones in Lost Towers.
If players have Precursor Tablets with very good attributes, then players can insert these Precursor Tablets into nearby towers. The influence areas of these towers will overlap, and the overlapping areas are the areas with the best farming currency. When several excellent attributes overlap, the probability of rare enemies appearing in this overlapping area will be much higher, so you can get good benefits in these locations, such as many POE 2 Divine Orbs or even unique items.
This method is also effective in 0.2.0. This is a very timesaving method. But players still hate Lost Towers very much and even think that Lost Towers ruined the entire POE 2 endgame experience.
Mainly because the rewards players can get in Lost Towers are very rare, and the interior of Lost Towers is very complicated, like a maze. And the interior of Lost Towers is very narrow. When players fight inside Lost Towers, the skills they release are often blocked by walls, so the experience inside Lost Towers is very poor.
However, the developers also made some changes to Lost Towers in 0.1.1. In version 0.1.1, the developers added 5 new types of towers to the game:
Each of these towers has a different terrain and monster distribution. The best tower for players is basically Bluff, because the exploration route in this tower is basically a straight line, allowing them to complete the tower the fastest.
Since Lost Towers introduced more points of interest in 0.2.0, players have to spend more time than usual to fully explore the entire tower. This is unbearable for some players, mainly because the complex and narrow terrain of Lost Towers makes every minute of fighting in it full of torture. Even worse, players sometimes cannot defeat the boss in the tower, which may cause players to have to challenge these bosses repeatedly or waste one of their Waystones to reset the tower.
In addition, since the 0.2.0 patch, towers will also be affected by Precursor Tablets. When players use Breach tablets and encounter a Breach encounter in a tower, the battle will become very difficult.
After the update, players can no longer throw Precursor Tablets or Waystones with disadvantageous entries into Lost Towers at will, because towers will now also have various monsters and rewards.
But such changes are not all bad. At least after the update, Lost Towers will become the same as ordinary maps and can also bring rich rewards to players. Compared with previous versions, players now have more opportunities to encounter Ritual events, Breach events and Delirium mirrors on the map. Therefore, towers will become another place to choose to farm currency.
Lost Towers will also be affected by Precursor Tablets on other Lost Towers, so you can also control the drops or enemies in the tower to a certain extent.

Most players may be dissatisfied with the changes to Lost Towers in the 0.2.0 patch. This is because Lost Towers is not what they are interested in. The process of exploring the tower is depressing and disappointing. Even after the changes, most players are probably still not willing to fight in such a complex terrain as Lost Towers. Players are more looking forward to developers bringing some real new content. For example, new bosses, new activities, new unique items or classes, etc.
In the past 2024, Path of Exile series of games has obviously attracted the attention of many ARPG players. Not only did it launch two leagues in the first few months, but it also launched the highly anticipated POE 2 at the end of the year. Although the release of POE 2 has been postponed many times before, it should have consumed a lot of your patience, and it is still only in early access, but it still received a lot of praise.
But what is more unbalanced is that since the early access to POE 2 was launched, the first game has not been officially updated for a long time. Although they belong to the same series, there are still differences in the gameplay, so if you find that you prefer Path of Exile 1, you may feel a little disappointed recently.
Therefore, in order to retain players who like the first game, the game developer decided to launch an event called Legacy of Phrecia for POE 1 on February 20 to make up for it. Based on this, we will introduce this event and speculate whether it can achieve the purpose of winning back players.
The event is themed around the lore and mechanics of POE series and will introduce 19 new Ascendancy subclasses. While this won’t drastically change the overall balance of the game, it will give you the opportunity to develop new builds in different areas. In addition, each of the 19 Ascendancy subclasses has interesting concepts that may not appear in regular classes or Ascendancy in POE series.
Take Witch’s Harbinger Ascendancy, for example. It is based on the creatures introduced in the corresponding League in 2017. Harbinger is traditionally an enemy, so using these creatures as allies is undoubtedly a fun experience for you. Other Ascendancy includes the following:
It is now confirmed that the event will officially begin at 12pm PST on Thursday, February 20, and will run until Sunday, March 23, so you have a little over four weeks to enjoy it.
Although according to current information, Legacy of Phrecia should only last for a month, if its player feedback and acceptance are good, the game developer should extend the event time, and the game will provide you with considerable Twitch Drops during the first week of the event.
In addition to the new Ascendancy that can be experienced, the event will also bring some rewards that are also applicable to Path of Exile 2, so that players who only play the second game can also benefit from participating in the event. For example, when you reach levels 20, 40, 60, and 80 respectively, you will get one of the components of the unique cosmetic Autumn Knight armor set for assembling the armor. After wearing it, your POE 2 Currency farming journey will be more interesting.
Since the launch of Path of Exile 2’s early access, the 3.26 update of the first game has been postponed many times, while the release of 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur was in several months ago. Obviously, the reason for this situation is that the game developers have been busy with the development and release of POE 2.
In order to ensure the quality of POE 2 and meet your long wait, the game developers have invested a lot of time in it, but it is still in the early access stage after all, so it will still occupy some of the development resources that should have been allocated to POE 1, which makes the launch of 3.26 seem to be even more distant.
First of all, at least you should admit that the launch of Legacy of Phrecia shows that the game officials have not forgotten the first game. After all, as a game studio of a smaller scale, it is still difficult to take care of two games at the same time.
In fact, whether Legacy of Phrecia can be successful depends on the quality of the event itself. Although the first game has not been updated for a long time, it has a richer game foundation after all. So if the new Ascendancy provided by Legacy of Phrecia is playable, you can use them to get a completely different experience in POE 1 until 3.26 can be launched. From this point of view, you should have confidence in Legacy of Phrecia.
Previously, the development team believed that the ideal release date of the 3.26 update of the first game was October 2024, but the release of POE 2 Preemptive Experience made things more complicated. The team later decided to postpone the 3.26 update to February 2025, but now it seems that this date will continue to be postponed.
In fact, the main task of POE series now is to stabilize POE 2 preemptive experience to the point where there are no major problems, which means that the 3.26 update should not be launched before the release of POE 2 patch 0.2.0. While this might be bad news for you if you loved the first game, Legacy of Phrecia should help you pass the time these days, or why not give Path of Exile 2 a try?
The normal Lilith in Diablo 4 is not a particularly difficult boss for most players, and can even be called easy. But when players face Echo of Lilith, such words can no longer be said.
Echo of Lilith can be said to be the most powerful boss in Diablo 4. If your build is not perfect, going to find Echo of Lilith is basically suicide. Echo of Lilith is more special among all Diablo 4 bosses, because the boss battle of Echo of Lilith will give Diablo 4 players a feeling of challenging a boss in Souls series, which is a very rare experience for players who have reached the endgame.
Echo of Lilith is a very special boss, not only because of her strong strength but also because after you challenge her, you will hardly get any rewards, and even not much Diablo 4 Gold. But players are still very keen on Echo of Lilith, because whether they can challenge Echo of Lilith has become a standard for testing their endgame builds.
Echo Of Lilith is located in Echo of Hatred. You need to reach Torment difficulties to summon Echo Of Lilith in Echo of Hatred. The specific location of the entrance to Echo of Hatred is in the southwestern Fractured Peaks. Players can find the entrance near Nevesk waypoint on the map.
Echo Of Lilith is an optional boss. When you find Echo of Hatred in your quest log, it means that you have met all the conditions for challenging Echo Of Lilith. You only need to follow the instructions of the quest to come to Echo of Hatred. When you reach the end of the dungeon, you can trigger the battle with Echo Of Lilith.
An endgame build character with almost perfect gear can skip, ignore or withstand most combat mechanics, so before fighting Super Lilith, collect as much better gear as possible, wear your best armor, bring your best weapons, and use Diablo 4 Gold to adjust your skills to the most perfect state. This will save you a lot of time.
If possible, try to reach the 9230 armor cap and all other resistance caps. Although Super Lilith’s encounter has been greatly adjusted in the fourth season, most of her abilities are no longer one-shot kills, making the fight easier overall, but it doesn’t mean that you can survive her second attack after taking one of her attacks.
In addition to resistances, stack movement speed as much as possible. The faster your character moves, the harder it is for Lilith’s Void Orbs to hit you. Lilith’s Void Orbs is the most threatening skill in the entire battle. The best choice is boots, Tumbling. This item has been buffed in Season 4, granting 125% movement speed for one second while in Evade, allowing you to burst into incredible speed and dodge her attacks.
Juggernaut’s Aspect won’t perform as well in Echo Of Lilith boss fight due to the need for Evade. Juggernaut’s Aspect provides high armor, but doubles the cooldown of Evade. Evade is a skill that players will need for this boss fight, so try not to bring Juggernaut’s Aspect.
Using defensive skills to gain immunity is a good way to get through Phase 2. For example, Flame Shield has a 20-second cooldown, and when it is active, the player will be immune to fire.
Most of the damage dealt by Uber Lilith is shadow damage, so try to increase resistance to shadow damage. It is recommended to carry some Elixir of Shadow Resistance II in your backpack, which can increase shadow resistance by 30% for 30 minutes.
The key to the entire boss fight is to avoid Lilith’s skills. Her skills basically have a torment debuff, which will cause Lilith to do more damage to you!
Lilith will create several Blood Blisters in the first phase, and there will be Blood Orbs floating around it. You avoid hitting Blood Orbs and then kill Blood Blisters.
At the end of the first phase, Oppressors will be summoned by Lilith, but its health is not high, so it is not difficult to deal with.
It should be noted that at the end of the first phase, Lilith will release Triangle Wave. You need to hide on the periphery as much as possible and avoid being hit by the outer and inner waves. These waves will not clear your health bar in one hit, but they also have many debuffs.
You need to reduce Lilith’s health bar as quickly as possible to prevent her from flying over your head in the first phase to release more powerful waves.
Lilith will refill her health bar in Phase 2 and create 4 Blood Pools in the field. Blood Orbs will still float out of them. You need to avoid these Blood Orbs.
Lilith will continue to destroy platforms in Phase 2. She will first destroy the upper third of the platform, then the right third, and finally the left. You need to move to a safe place before these platforms are destroyed.
During this period, Blood Pools will launch high-speed purple spheres. This is when your high-speed movement comes in handy. This time, the purple spheres will cause high shadow damage to you. Try to use your Evade and movement speed to avoid them.
When all three platforms are destroyed and Lilith’s health bar is emptied, then congratulations, you have successfully completed this difficult encounter.
Lilith will not drop very rare Diablo 4 items like other bosses. Her drops are not valuable, but defeating her will gain two titles.
Lilith will mainly drop Resplendent Spark and the mount Reins of Bloody Liquid Steed.
Resplendent Spark can be used to forge Mythic Unique Cache or create Rune. And Reins of Bloody Liquid Steed is a blood-red horse. Echo Of Lilith is the only boss that drops a mount.
The above is a simple guide on how to challenge Echo Of Lilith in Diablo 4 Season 7. If you are confident in your endgame build, challenge her.
For whatever reason, the developers seem to have a special preference for Druid class. It has been strong for several seasons, and it is still doing very well in The Pit in Season 7.
When players reach the endgame, powerful monsters make it necessary to have a truly powerful build to make players unstoppable in the endgame and have fun. There are many powerful Druid builds, but the most powerful is Cataclysm Druid Build.
Required Aspects: Stormshifter’s Aspect
Required Uniques: Tempest Roar, Mjölnic Ryng, Airidah’s Inexorable Will
Because Cataclysm is a powerful ultimate damage-dealing skill, the idea of this build is to minimize the cooldown of Cataclysm. Airidah’s Inexorable Will and Stormshifter’s Aspect can both reduce the cooldown of your ultimate skill, so these two items are essential.
If you want to farm gold happily in the endgame, then these items are almost essential.
The basic skill of Druid is Maul, which can enhance Druid’s Spirit. At the same time, you also need to point out Enhanced Maul. It can increase your maximum health percentage. This can increase the tolerance in battle. When you are besieged by a group of enemies, more health can keep you fighting longer.
Pulverize is a core skill. When other skills are on cooldown, using Pulverize allows Druid to continue to deal area damage to the enemy. Maul and Pulverize can work together to not only continue to cause damage to the enemy but also protect Druid to a certain extent.
Debilitating Roa can apply debuffs to surrounding enemies. This skill can not only reduce the damage you receive but also provide a certain degree of assistance in the team.
Earthen Bulwark can provide a barrier for Druid when activated. This barrier can make some damage in a short period. How much can be absorbed depends on Druid’s maximum health? The higher the health, the more it absorbs. At the same time, enhancing this skill can also make Druid unstoppable, which is conducive to Druid getting rid of control and moving to a suitable output position.
Hurricane can continuously deal damage to the surrounding area. You can enhance Hurricane with Enhanced Hurricane and Savage Hurricane. Endless Tempest is a must-have skill because it can extend the duration of Hurricane and Cataclysm.
Occult Gems are new gems in Season 7. Each gem can give the character armor and additional special powers.
Witch Power is the theme of Season 7
Unique Power: Vengeful Spirit
Normal Powers:
Purging Touch and Voice of the Stars can work together to allow your Cataclysm to do more damage.
Mercenaries can provide players with an extra boost, don’t ignore their help in the game. Players can hire two types of mercenaries with Gold.
Main Mercenary:
Varyana, Berserker
Skills: Cleave, Recklessness, Whirlwind, No Escape
Reinforcement:
Raheir, Shieldbearer
Both of these mercenaries can be of great help to Druid when facing a group of enemies
Cataclysm Druid is very powerful. When Druid releases Cataclysm, all enemies will be crushed by the powerful damage. Cataclysm Druid also performs well when facing bosses. But you can’t think that Cataclysm Druid is invincible. You still need to pay attention to the order of skill release. When your health reaches a dangerous value, release defensive skills to recover in time.
In general, the feature of Cataclysm Druid Build is simplicity. When the player completes this build, there is almost no difficulty in operation. Just wait for the cooldown of Cataclysm to end, and then release it. Cataclysm Druid allows players to enjoy invincible fun in The Pit, seasonal quests, and nightmare dungeons.
As a MMORPG with a well-developed social system, FFXIV naturally provides you with a variety of interesting emotes and actions in the game, allowing you to interact with your game friends through them, so that you can have a chance to relax after intense battles.
Recently, a new emote was launched in the game, called Pose of the Unbound, but it is more like an action than an emote, and if you often watch animation and comics, you will find that the design inspiration of this emote should come from a classic comic: Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure.
Based on this, we will speculate why the game chose Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure as the emote design idea, and also introduce you how to get this emote in FFXIV.
This is a comic work that began in 1987 and was serialized by cartoonist Hirohiko Araki in the Japanese comic magazine Weekly Shonen Jump. It was transferred to the monthly manga magazine Ultra Jump in 2005 and has been serialized to this day. Fans also refer to it as “Jojo”.
The entire plot of the comic can be divided into 9 parts, each with a new protagonist, but the common point of these protagonists is that they all have the nickname “Jojo”. So far, 6 of the 9 parts have been animated, and 1 has a live-action movie.
Because of its unique art style, frequent references to Western pop music and fashion trends, Jojo has become one of the best-selling, most iconic and influential comic series in history. Although it has only become popular outside of Japan in recent years, it has to be admitted that it has quickly become a classic work in the hearts of anime fans around the world.
Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure became popular in Europe and the United States mainly because the subtle weird elements in the comics brought many popular emoticons, the most famous of which is “Jojo Pose”, one of which is to put your hands in front of your face-which is also the main inspiration for Final Fantasy 14’s new emote Pose of the Unbound, and the official website of the game has also confirmed this.
At present, Final Fantasy 14 is quite popular among MMORPG players in different regions of the world, so if it wants to incorporate some interesting online memes into the game to make you laugh, the inspiration of the memes should be widely known and related to other games or virtual works such as animation, to ensure that most players can understand it.
Obviously, the popularity of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure and the fun of “Jojo pose” can fully meet the above requirements, and maybe this is just the first step for FFXIV-if the new emote Pose of the Unbound is well received, perhaps in the future the game will also plan to carry out more formal and larger-scale crossover events with Jojo.
The first thing you need to know is that this emote was added to Final Fantasy 14 in the patch 7.16 update. The update highlights the final questline in Dawntrail character quest series, but to access it, you’ll first need to complete Dawntrail’s main scenario quest and five character questlines, which are:
Once you’ve made sure you’ve earned the qualifications to start the quest, head to Xbalyav Ty’e in Tuliyollal (coordinates X:12.4, Y:14.7) and find the various NPCs for the corresponding questline to start the quest - in fact, this is the same place you previously visited in the restaurant downstairs where you meet Wuk Lamat during the main story quest of Dawntrail.
While you should be rewarded with FF14 Gil for completing the above quest, it’s not enough to get the new emote - you’ll also need to complete the level 100 Picking Up the Torch quest, which you can start by finding Rral Majun, also in Tuliyollal, standing near the bar. You’ll then have a conversation with her and a nearby Br’uk Evu, which will lead you to learn that Apyaahi, the founder of Passage of the Unbound, is looking for a new leader for her dubious organization.
Your job from then on is to pose as one of Apyaahi’s potential candidates and learn her true intentions in order to complete another level 100 quest, Imposing Views, which will reward you with a gift box that you can open to receive Pose of the Unbound emote.
In addition to the quests related to the new emote, it’s also recommended that you try to complete the rest of the final character questline, as this will earn you “Bright Bustle” Orchestrion Roll and “Sweet Justice” title.
After the above introduction, I believe that you have not only mastered the method of obtaining new emotes in FF14 but also become more interested in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure. In fact, it is totally worth your appreciation. Thank you for reading.
After nearly a decade of development, Path of Exile 2 was released in early access at the end of last year. In this sequel, which is currently receiving a lot of praise, the classic Action RPG elements and modern innovations are cleverly combined to attract the attention of new and old players of this type of game successfully.
Although POE 2 and Diablo 4, two very popular MMO games, have some very similarities, such as both have dark atmospheres and challenging battles, POE 2 has expanded more gameplay possibilities with its own very large customization system, combat mechanism, and a world that allows you to explore very immersively.
This is also an important reason many D4 players have joined the journey provided by POE 2 during this period, because they can get a unique sense of freshness and attraction in it. If you are a D4 player who is watching POE 2, you might as well make a final decision on whether to try it after reading the reasons listed in this guide.
In POE 2, the most shocking thing for players may be the very large passive skill tree, in which you can unlock nearly 1,500 passive skill nodes, which provides players with a lot of ways to customize their characters through these nodes. Not only that, players can also make a variety of builds in it to meet different game styles.
Most importantly, these passive skill nodes are common to all Classes, which add more freedom and creativity to Diablo 4 players who can only use passive skills belonging to Class. And the improved skill gem system in POE 2 includes about 240 active skill gems and nearly 2,000 support gems, which will give players more opportunities to fine-tune the builds used in the game to suit their own game style.
It is worth mentioning here that since the skill gems you use in POE 2 need to be obtained by you during exploration, even if the same player controls the same Class used by different accounts, it is possible to get a different game experience. This is the freshness that the developers of POE 2 want players to enjoy. In this case, even though some powerful builds may dominate the meta-game, the builds used by players can be diverse.
For players who have seen a lot of enemies and bosses with different attack patterns in Diablo 4, if you want to seek some more challenging battles, then POE 2 will be your best choice. This game combines soulslike elements with traditional Action RPG mechanics, so that even in its normal difficulty game content, you will feel more difficult than some high-level Tormented difficulties in D4.
In addition to the difficulty of the content, POE 2’s bosses have unique attack patterns and powerful striking capabilities to provide you with epic battles. This means that you have little room for error in these battles, even if your build is already strong enough with the help of a lot of POE 2 Currency. With this combat design, I believe POE 2 will definitely attract those D4 players who like to overcome tough battles and want to have a fresh and exciting challenge.
Like D4, POE 2 also provides players with Hardcore Mode, providing players who like dark fantasy action role-playing games with a game environment with a constant sense of danger and extremely challenging. In this mode, each character has only one life, so every decision made by the player is crucial, otherwise it will cause permanent consequences and increase the probability of risk you encounter in the subsequent exploration process.
But it is worth noting that Hardcore Mode in POE 2 is more tolerant than that in Diablo 4: you will not be permanently deleted after death in this mode, but your current game progress will be transferred to Standard Mode, where you can continue to enjoy the character’s progress and the exploration of subsequent content, but with fewer difficulty settings.
Whether in D4 or POE 2, endgame content has always been the main expectation of players of this type of game, and POE 2 has become a sought-after object in a way that satisfies many players. Although POE 2 is still in the early access stage and many of its contents are not available, it is still very popular with the high level of challenge it provides to players with many pinnacles bosses.
However, it is necessary to remind Diablo 4 players who try this rich endgame that before challenging these contents; you need to optimize your build with currencies such as POE 2 Regal Orbs, which are very important in the game, so that you can safely explore the content in the endgame.
Furthermore, the core mechanics and main campaigns on POE 2’s endgame are very different from the previous game content, so players need to relearn some game strategies here, such as item priority and map exploration strategies.
Unlike other ARPGs, POE 2 provides players with the function of pausing the game at any time during single-player exploration, which allows players to take a breath during very complex or difficult battles or quietly organize their inventory during exploration to make more accurate strategies. This function is very beneficial for those dungeon explorations with very intense battles in D4, which will give them a break to ensure that their exploration will not lead to quick death because of unexpected interference.
In this gap, players can plan the next move steadily, or just enjoy a brief break to take simple actions such as drinking water or standing. Although this function does not reduce the overall difficulty of the game, the ability to give players impressive control over the game content is a much-needed quality of life improvement for those players who desire flexibility.
The above are some of the important reasons why Diablo 4 players should try Path of Exile 2 based on the current game content. I hope that those players who are waiting to see this seemingly successful sequel can start trying this game and get some unique gaming experience from it after analyzing this guide. I wish you a happy game!
What is the most classic MMORPG in the world? That’s right, it’s World of Warcraft. WOW has become the best MMORPG among all gamers, with its exquisite plot, rich races and gameplay, and a very vast map. But now there is a game that challenges it. It is The Quinfall developed by Vawraek Technology.
The Quinfall is said to have the largest map area in the game. The official data is 2016 square kilometers. Players may not have any idea about this, so you can compare it with other games:
In other words, the map area of The Quinfall alone is equivalent to 10 Azeroth continents! Players must run their legs off in this game.
However, the company that made this game is neither Ubisoft nor EA, which are good at making open world canned games, nor Microsoft or Sony, but an unknown Vawraek Technology. Have you heard of it? Maybe not, because this company comes from romantic Turkey.
Players seem to have never heard of any famous game companies in Turkey, and this is actually true. Turkey is indeed well-known in the game industry, and to some extent, this place can be called a “game desert.” However, just like an oasis in the desert. Turkey has a long history and strong strength, and this country must have the strength to create a game.
In fact, The Quinfall is not the first work of Vawraek Technology. They were developing a game called Kayra Online in 2019, but this game was terminated in 2021, and they started to develop The Quinfall almost immediately.
Their development speed is amazing. In the third year of development, they announced that they would sell it on Steam. However, for various reasons, it has now been postponed to January 25, 2025.
Maybe people who know a little about the game feel that Vawraek Technology seems a bit unreliable. They think The Quinfall may be another The Day Before. However, this time, Vawraek Technology seems to be doing something real for the players.
Despite the one-year delay, it is not that nothing has been done. The Quinfall not only released a trailer but also conducted alpha testing, extensions and beta testing. And they finally decided to release the first-hand experience in January 2025. This sounds a lot more reliable, and they finally did not run away.
Although the game has not yet been launched, players can see what kind of game it is from the videos and early tests it released.
According to the official description, this game not only has a super large map, but players can also explore in five areas with different climates.
Quinfall is very bold in the design of the economic system. Players can not only create caravans but also rob other players’ caravans. At the same time, players can also put their own goods on the shelves in the store, and even open their own stores. Quinfall has designed a very real economic system for players, so that you can also earn Gold very realistically in the game.
In terms of story, players will explore the influence of many gods such as Pelyonas, Greis and Kreas, the dragon gods, on the universe, uncover the deep background stories of dozens of main characters, or observe the daily life of other characters in the kingdom, and find the secret of the cursed crown that changed the fate of Quinfall. Just from the story framework, the text volume of this game will not be too small.
There are also ten professions in the game, each of which is mainly divided by the weapons used, and each profession has two sub-professions. If players are tired of fighting monsters, they can also earn some Quinfall Gold Coins for themselves through fishing, breeding, hunting, etc.
In terms of combat, the scenes where players can fight are not limited to land, but can even fight in the sky and on the sea. What’s more interesting is the world boss crusade and the huge online dungeon for hundreds of players.
Not all players have confidence in it, because the art materials in its previous demonstration are a bit cheap and the actions seem to lack some polish. The most important thing is that Quinfall has such a large map. If the content cannot be filled well, the game will become very empty and boring.
However, the specific content will have to wait until it is actually launched to see its true level. The good news is that it is a free MMORPG, and players at least don’t have to worry about suffering the loss of The Day Before again. It will be officially launched soon, and interested players can try to be the first batch of players to enter the game.
As one of the most successful MMORPGs in the world, Final Fantasy 14 has brought players a fulfilling and wonderful year in 2024. 2025 is coming, and FF14 may continue to build the world based on Dawntrail. Perhaps the mobile version of Final Fantasy 14 will be released in 2025, but the game progress in PC and consoles should remain ahead for quite a long time in terms of game content, so the following part focuses on the content that may be updated in PC and console versions.

Players may be able to wait for the main line update of Dawntrail in early 2025. The update may be released in Patch 7.2 on the day from March to April. The end of Patch 7.1 of Final Fantasy 14 left players with a suspense. A mysterious man appeared in Living Memory, and Warrior of Light may continue to investigate in Alexandria. The key ending may be released in mid-August to September, which is Patch 7.3.
Both patches will offer new dungeons, and in Patch 7.3 there will be a new Trial to fight against a foe that has yet to be unannounced.
Patches 7.2 and 7.3 will bring more raid content to players. Patch 7.2 will bring Cruiserweight Tier to the 8-player Arcadion raid series. This Cruiserweight Tier has Normal and Savage difficulties. Completing Arcadion’s Light-Heavyweight Tier on Normal mode is the prerequisite for players to unlock Cruiserweight Tier.
Echoes of Vana’diel alliance raid series will release the next chapter in Patch 7.3. Although it is not yet known what bosses players will encounter in these two series, it is certain that the bosses will become more powerful and players will need to update their FFXIV items.
In Final Fantasy 14, housing content has always been loved by players. Housing allows players to use their creativity and also brings profits, because in this game, land is limited. The land in each server has been occupied in advance by individual buyers and free companies.
Although it is not known whether the development team will add new housing areas in patches 7.2 and 7.3, the good news is that in these two versions, players can change the size of the interior space of the house through FF14 Gil, while the exterior will not change. For example, a medium-sized house can be upgraded to a large-sized house, and the corresponding number of furniture that can be placed should also increase.
Players will come to Shades’ Triangle at some point between patches 7.2 and 7.3. This will be the latest outdoor combat content. This outdoor action will be based on the real Bermuda Triangle, starting from Occult Crescent, a part of Shades’ Triangle, which may be the place where Dawntrail’s relic weapon quest begins. When players set foot on Shades’ Triangle, they will know what the development team has prepared for players.
The development team said Trials released after Dawntrail will be separate quests, independent of the main story, just like Heavensward through Shadowbringers, in addition to Trials battles in patch 7.3, players can earn some Gil and other rewards by completing the quests.
The development team is tight-lipped about this, but players should get some official news when patch 7.2 is released. Trials battles have a tradition of extracting materials from previous Final Fantasy series, for example, players can see Final Fantasy 7 weapons in Shadowbringers, and Heavensward has Final Fantasy 6’s trident. Weapons from Final Fantasy 9 and Final Fantasy 11 may appear in Dawntrail, as it has already borrowed a lot from these two works.
Currently, players know very little about the content of Cosmic Exploration, but this part has been announced to be released in Dawntrail, so players should be able to play this part in patch 7.2 or patch 7.3. According to the description of the development team, artisans and gatherers can see various planets and get help from interstellar races. If you want to get more information, you can follow the official follow-up live broadcast.
Dawntrail is expected to reach its end and climax in patch 7.3, and subsequent updates will pave the way for the Warrior of Light's next actions. Perhaps the story of 8.0 will take place between the southern lands of Meracydia and some unknown areas in the north of Ilsabard and Othard. The world of Etheirys is very vast, and there are many places where stories can be born. Players can look for clues between the previews of patches 7.2 and 7.3.
Beastmaster was announced at the 2024 Tokyo FanFest as the second confirmed Limited Job. However, the developers did not announce more content, which resulted in players knowing almost nothing about him at present. In any case, Beastmaster can debut in patch 7.4 at the earliest, which is about the winter of 2025, which is still a year away. Regarding the weapons and armor of this character, players need to get more information from the open group in subsequent versions.
FF14 has been running for many years, and players’ enthusiasm for this game has not diminished at all. Perhaps this is due to the fact that the development team knows what they are doing and what needs to be done. They will update according to the plan, which ensures the quality of the game. In any case, I look forward to Dawntrail bringing more exciting content to players in 2025.
Path of Exile 2 provides players with numerous class choices and gives players a lot of freedom in building characters. This also makes some players confused about how to better choose to upgrade characters.
But fortunately, if you keep learning and trying, you will find that your build will be more flexible.
Given the variety of options provided by the developers for players, you will definitely be curious to test what happens when the same character is equipped with different skills and passive skills.
Then we have to mention Passive skill trees. If you see Passive skill trees for the first time, you will definitely be a little overwhelmed. Because it has a lot of passive skills, and there are many passive skills that you can upgrade.
However, after you have a deeper understanding, players will find that this is a very simple passive skills tree. Because no matter what class the player chooses, the passive skills tree will provide you with many options and allow you to play freely.
Witch is a powerful class in POE 2. If you are interested in this class, then you must not miss the following content, which can help you upgrade Witch faster.
Witch is a class that excels at using spells to deal physical and chaos damage to enemies. So, when you want to level up your class, you need to focus on any passive skills that can upgrade spell, physical, and chaos damage.
In addition, since this class mainly relies on spells to deal critical hits, you also need to upgrade spell critical chance and damage when you level up your skills to increase your spell damage value.
If you are currently in the early stages of Witch, it is recommended that you make sure to upgrade physical and critical damage first to increase the damage of Bonestorm spell. This is probably the best way to level up Witch in the early stages.
First, you can use Raw Destruction skill, which can help you increase your spell damage by 16%. Then, you can break down your casting skill targets into Jagged Shards and Practiced Signs to better increase your casting speed and spell critical hit effect, causing more physical damage to enemies.
In addition, if you want to further enhance the spell critical hit ability of Witch, you can progress up Practiced Signs path until you reach Critical Overload. Of course, you can also choose to take the shortcut on the right and upgrade Potent Incantation skill to upgrade spell damage.
However, if you want to increase spell crit and cast speed, it is recommended that players choose the real upward path and upgrade Sudden Escalation.
Because this will allow your Bonestorm spell to deal a lot of damage to enemies, helping you kill enemies faster and win POE2 Currency rewards.
Of course, you can also continue to use passive skills such as Cut Bones, Blood Tearing, and Shredding Force to help you upgrade more physical and critical strikes.
For early stage Witch, Contagion and Bone Cage are the strongest damage output skills. Contagion will cause enemies to receive DoT chaos damage.
And when enemies die, this damage will spread among them to hurt more enemies. Soon, players will find that the entire enemy team will be infected with Contagion and they will attack you painfully. At this time, it will be easier to kill them and win.
Bone Cage is more suitable for melee combat. It can not only prevent enemies from getting close to the player but also cause some effective damage to the enemy. Bone Cage will cause physical damage to the enemy when it hits a critical hit, which is very consistent with the character attributes you build through the passive skill tree.
When the player reaches level 7 skill, it is recommended that you give priority to Bonestorm. Because this skill is the core damage output skill in Witch build.
Although it takes a certain amount of time to cast the skill, once the player releases the skill, the enemy will be torn into pieces, which has extremely strong damage.
If you are facing a boss at this time, Bonestorm can help you kill the enemy faster, because it only takes four or five times to defeat the enemy.
Similarly, if you want to summon more Bone Spikes when releasing the skill, it is recommended that you can upgrade the casting speed in the passive skill tree to achieve it.
Of course, Bonestorm can also cause critical hits and physical damage, which makes it one of the skills that cannot be obtained in build Witch.
If you have unlocked Bonestorm, because you have better spells, Contagion will slowly disappear. But don’t worry, in the late game, you can unlock Dark Effigy to create a totem that casts chaos damage on enemies that have been infected by Contagion.
This is the most useful spell among Witch's many skills. Because it can cast critical hits continuously and has no cooldown limit. This also allows players to cause more damage to enemies when casting critical hits.
And this chaos spell does not affect your build because it takes 2 to 3 seconds to set up and run automatically.
Finally, for a class whose core skill is damage output, adding a curse that allows players to ignore enemy armor is very necessary.
Of course, you can also choose to add random affixes through POE 2 Exalted Orb to enhance your rare equipment and increase your chances of killing bosses.
In addition, upgrading Vulnerability can help you maintain your ability for a few seconds, and in these few seconds, you can cast at least 2 Bonestorm spells.
For additional skills, it is recommended that you consider Raise Zombies and Skeletal Warriors. Because when you cast other spells, it often takes some time.
During this time, you are very vulnerable. Therefore, you need to get some defensive minions to help you hold your ground. They will chase the enemies away, and the scene will become a battle scene instead of just running around shooting dead enemies.

As we all know, Intelligence is the core attribute of Witch. Because the class needs it to play Wands and Sceptres and unlock more spells. And the profession is very dependent on mana, and Intelligence is the attribute that increases mana.
At the beginning of the game, you need about 20 Intelligence points to unlock the skills and equipment of Witch.
When you reach Act 2, which is the middle stage of the game, you need to increase Intelligence to about 55. At this stage, you can use many Uncut Skill Gems in the game.
Finally, you need to reach about 120 Intelligence to unlock all the game content related to Witch.
The second most important attribute for Witch is Strength. Because it can help you improve your vitality and help you increase your combat time.
In addition, many auxiliary gems of Witch require corresponding Strength or Intelligence points to be opened. So Strength is more important than Dexterity, which most people choose.
In order to protect Witch well when casting skills, it is recommended that you use Meat Shield and Last Gasp for your followers to enhance their stamina and provide you with enough time to cast skills.
The above is what you need to pay attention to when upgrading Witch. If you want to upgrade Witch faster, you can try these tips!
