After entering the 21st century, the development of technology has been so rapid that it is beyond imagination, and the benefits brought by this development are reflected in all aspects, not only making your life more convenient but also making your entertainment more diverse. Take playing video games as an example, in fact, it might be hard for people 20 years ago to imagine that there are now six or seven choices of gaming devices alone!
Among all gaming devices, PCs and various controllers that need to be connected to the display are more troublesome and cannot be carried around for experience, while mobile phones, iPads and handheld game consoles are more convenient because of their smaller size - if you are a game fan, you must know that Nintendo Switch is the most popular handheld game console.
At present, some games on the market are designed specifically for Switch, while some games are first supplied to other devices and then logged in to Switch. This means that if you are a fan of both the latter game and Switch, you may always be looking forward to their early cooperation, and one representative of this type of game is Genshin Impact.
When Genshin Impact was first released in 2020, it could be experienced on mobile (Android & iOS) PC and PlayStation 4, and it was announced that it would land on Nintendo Switch in the future. However, it is now 2025, and although Genshin Impact has been launched on PS5 and Xbox Series consoles before, the Switch plan of Genshin Impact has not yet been realized. However, the recent release of Switch 2 information seems to allow you to see the dawn of this plan.
Like its predecessor, Switch 2 is a hybrid game console that can be used as a handheld game console or connected to a TV or monitor. It is similar in appearance to Switch 1, but the screen size is expected to increase by about 33%, and other hardware details will be fully upgraded.
There have been many rumors about the specific launch date of Switch 2, and it has not been determined, but at least you can be sure that it will be better than the first generation in all aspects. In addition, although Nintendo has not yet announced which RPGs will be first launched on Switch 2, and HoYoverse has not announced the next plan for Genshin Impact and Switch 2, if the two are still planning to cooperate, then Switch 2 is definitely better than 1.
The first generation Switch was released in 2017. Although it was evaluated as one of the most innovative game consoles ever at the time, it was eight years ago, after all. Nowadays, Switch 1 cannot compare with PlayStation 4&5 or Xbox series game consoles in many aspects, so the birth of Switch 2 is inevitable.
In addition, devices are improving, and games are expanding. Compared with five years ago, Genshin Impact now has higher requirements for devices in terms of memory and performance. Perhaps this is why Genshin Impact was not finally released on Nintendo Switch - the rapid expansion speed of releasing patches every six weeks makes it increasingly unlikely that Genshin Impact will be ported to Switch 1.
You might be thinking that even without a Switch, playing Genshin Impact on PC is also great, after all, the bigger screen will make the experience better, but you only need to check the number of characters in your Genshin Impact Account to dispel this idea - the high storage requirements brought by the growing number of characters means that the PC may also experience lags. However, as the latest game console to be born, the Switch 2 is expected to introduce modern hardware, allowing popular Gacha games such as Genshin Impact to run smoothly.
If the Switch 2 can really achieve hardware advancements, it will not only run the current Genshin Impact smoothly but also adapt to the frequency of future updates of the game. In fact, there are rumors that the Switch 2 will even be able to run large games such as Metal Gear Solid Delta and Final Fantasy 7 Remake.
Since its launch, Genshin Impact has been compared by players with Zelda: Breath of the Wild developed by Nintendo, because the two games have many similarities in open world design and exploration. Even though Genshin Impact focuses more on Gacha elements and becomes more and more different from Zelda as it develops, some people still suspect that Genshin Impact is a copycat.
Regardless of the credibility of this suspicion, the combat, character development and narrative structure of the two games are now very different, which has completely opened up the own fan base of Genshin Impact. Therefore, Nintendo can completely regard Genshin Impact as a strong competitor to its own Zelda series - Genshin Impact is even completely free outside of Gacha elements, while Zelda is not.
In this way, whether Genshin Impact can be logged in to the Switch series is actually not related to the performance of devices, but involves intellectual property disputes. If so, then you may not have the opportunity to play this RPG developed by HoYoverse on any Switch.
But you don’t have to worry about it. After all, there are many game choices now. In fact, you can play Zelda on Switch and Genshin Impact on other devices to fully experience their different charms, give your own game review, and make your gaming experience more meaningful.
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 this Diablo 4 Spiritborn Jaguar guide, we’ll take a thorough analysis into the character’s gameplay, skills, possible build strategies, and more.
Spiritborn is the newest member of Diablo 4 class roster, a tough warrior from Nahantu Jungle who wields the mystical powers of the guardian of the spirit realm.
Spiritborn marks a true expansion of class depth and build variety in Diablo 4. While we’ll have to wait until Vessel of Hatred to unlock Spiritborn, there’s a lot of information to explore about the class so we can jump right in and dive into the excitement of this new class.
Today, we’ll be taking a thorough analysis into Jaguar Spirit, gameplay, skill selection, and how these elements fit together.
For those who already know how to play Druid in Diablo 4, think of Spirit Boons as an advanced enhancement. For those who are new to Druid, these spirits will bring powerful passive skill bonuses to your character.
Spirits also allow you to perform specific skills, some of which increase attack speed to increase damage output, others increase damage output over time, use vicious poisons to weaken enemies, or if you prefer, there are still some that allow you to use the pseudo-ranged variant of Spiritborn.

For players who love endless fighting and killing, Guardian Spirit is definitely your best choice.Become a fierce predator and ruthlessly tear through enemies with high DPS, accelerated attacks, and swift movements.
Picking up Jaguar Spirit equips you with Guardians’ passive, which triggers a chain of critical hits after every fourth attack with a Jaguar skill.
Many Jaguar skills build Ferocity, a stackable buff that increases attack speed by 5%, with a baseline attack speed of 20%. Building up and maintaining this buff is key to boosting your DPS. You can use this increased attack speed in creative ways by applying it to other Guardian Spirit skills. To reach the potential of these skills faster and make the most of Jaguar Spirit’s abilities, it might also be wise to consider investing in some Diablo 4 Gold.
The appeal of Spiritborn is the variety of Spirit Guardians possible.
One fascinating combination is Jaguar with Centipede, a strategy that doubles damage output by introducing poisons, and stays alive by stealing life and increasing health after killing enemies, which is a perfect fit for aggressive all-out offensive play.
Picking Centipede as a secondary Spirit will give you a healing ability that restores 1% of maximum HP for each nearby poisoned enemy, while also allowing you to achieve a wide range of poison effects at a low cost. A better option is Touch of Death.
Touch of Death can apply continuous poison damage. Not only is this skill very effective as an opening, but when the poison effect ends or the target enemy dies, the effect explodes among nearby enemies, spreading the poison. This makes this skill particularly suitable for use when facing numerous enemies, especially when combined with Rake skill, which has incredible AoE clear potential.
Another interesting combination for Spiritborn Jaguar in Diablo 4 is Jaguar and Eagle. This combination takes advantage of Jaguar’s enhanced attack speed, combined with Eagle’s high crit rate and its mobility of Eagle, to create a DPS combination.
With this combination, enemies can be quickly defeated by simply keeping up the attack.
If the attack-focused glass cannon style doesn't suit you, another option for Spiritborn Jaguar in Diablo 4 is to pair Jaguar with Gorilla. This combination enhances defensive mechanisms such as barriers and crowd control skills, providing a more warrior-style combat style for players who like to charge in and output as much damage as possible.
Ultimately, with a well-thought-out strategy and some creative thinking, Spiritborn Jaguar will undoubtedly become an exciting and terrifying force on the battlefield of Diablo 4.
If you know Elden Ring well, you will find that Elden Ring builds are all different. We can see various different builds, such as anime-esque magic users, or massive hammer-wielding cavemen. Although they look very different, there is still a very core thing, that is talismans.
There are more than 100 kinds of talismans in Elden Ring. These talismans can bring us unique buffs, such as attack damage, elemental resistance, etc. Although talismans can bring certain buffs, some talismans are the most desired by players, such as Millicent’s Prosthesis.
This talisman is more effective than other talismans and is more coveted by players. If you want to defeat your opponent by attacking continuously in battle, then Millicent’s Prosthesis can help you increase your damage on top of your continuous attacks. But how can we get this Millicent’s Prosthesis?
We need to complete the quest brought by an NPC to get this very good talisman. If you want to get the talisman, and even more Elden Ring Runes, read this article carefully!
Millicent is currently waiting for us at Prayer Room Site of Grace. If we want to get Millicent’s Prosthesis talisman, we must kill her before completing her questline. However, we can’t kill her as soon as we see her. At least, she can’t die before she arrives at Windmill Heights Site of Grace in Altus Plateau. If she dies, we won’t be able to get talisman.
We need to complete some steps and defeat some bosses to get this talisman. First, we have to follow quest prompts to transport Railroading Millicent to Altus Plateau. This is not an easy task, and it takes us an hour. Then we go to Caelid map, find Commander O’Neil in Aeonia Swam and kill him, then we can get broken Unalloyed Gold Needle. We need to bring this needle to Gowry in his shack back.
After giving this needle to Gowry, there is a way to reduce loading time. We remember to save the progress and exit the game, so that we can reduce the time we reload. Then we need to give the mended needle to Millicent, who is now in Church of Plague on Caelid map.
We need to use this needle to stop rot from spreading to Millicent’s body. After completing it, we will have a short rest and talk with Millicent at the nearby Site of Grace, and then set off to Haligtree. At this time, you may find that she is missing an arm, so the next step we need to complete is to go to Shaded Castle on Altus Plateau to find a prosthetic limb.
If you know Altus very well, you will know that Shaded Castle is a building located north of green swamp, and this building is poisonous. So be careful when we enter Shaded Castle. The key location of Millicent’s quest is actually in Altus Plateau.
We don’t need to fight the boss. We need to go to the northwest corner of castle’s outer wall. There is a room there. We enter the room and open a box containing Valkyrie’s Prosthesis. Then we have to return to Erdtree-Gazing Hill Site of Grace in Altus Plateau, and then we give prosthesis to Millicent. At this time, she will help you deal with the field boss in Windmill Heights.
If you have completed previous quest, what we have to do now is to go to Windmill Heights in Altus Plateau and defeat Godskin Apostle. If we have already defeated Godskin Apostle, we don’t need to go to this place, saving some trouble.
Then we need to go back to Site of Grace to rest. We can see Millicent nearby. This time Millicent has all four limbs intact. This is our earliest chance to get Millicent’s Prosthesis.
If you only want to get Millicent’s Prosthesis, you can defeat and kill her and she will drop talisman. However, doing so will lock out her other questlines and prevent you from getting Miquella’s Needle. But if you only want to get Millicent’s Prosthesis, this is your best chance. Don’t miss it.
Elden Ring’s inventory has a description of Millicent’s Prosthesis Talisman. Millicent’s Prosthesis is considered one of the best talismans in Elden Ring. This is because this talisman is perfect for Dexterity builds, twin blades, or weapons that can do fast attack sequences. Not only does it increase your Dex stat by five, it also raises power of your attacks when you attack continuously. These attributes are still very good for us.
The key point is that successive hit buffs can be stacked, such as Rotten Winged Sword Insignia talisman and Thorny Cracked Tear Physick. Shard of Alexander talisman is also recommended because many successive attack combos come from Ashes of War.
We can’t get both Rotten Winged Sword Insignia and Millicent’s Prosthesis at the same time. If you want both, you need to go through more quests. In addition, if you kill Millicent too early, you won’t be able to get Rotten Winged Sword Insignia.
The above content is about how to get Millicent’s Prosthesis talisman and what Millicent’s Prosthesis talisman is. Reading the article carefully will definitely help you.
There are many areas in Shadow Of The Erdtree that are difficult to find, which in a way represents the depth of this game. Optional bosses, such as Scadutree Avatar and Commander Gaius also provide challenging encounters and valuable rewards.
Players can explore unique areas, such as Abyssal Woods and Hinterlands. A good open-world game is that even if there is no way to defeat it, it will make people want to explore. This sentence is really suitable for Elden Ring, and it really does this.
It has many hidden areas, which is a great game for people who like to explore the map. If you don’t look carefully on the map, you may miss these places and miss some Elden Ring Items. The following places are simple to be overlooked. It’s good to know them.
Gothic Worshipers of Scadutree Avatar. This Church is located in Shadow Of The Erdtree. Although this Church has given up remembrance, Scadutree Avatar is still an optional boss. The completion of this requires a lot of hoops. This is a symbol of the Land of Shadow and a symbol of worship for local people.
In addition, we can find this boss at the end of this Church District. If we want to reach our goal, first, we have to go through Moorth Ruins, through a cave and then reach Bonny Village. Then from there we have to follow the path north, through most of the map, and then we can reach Church District. Then solve the water crisis in the area, and you can see Scadutree Avatar boss.
Messmer’s Hold Has a Backyard, which is another place with optional remembrance bosses. If Church District is unlocked, it will be relatively easy to reach Shadow Keep Back site of grace. If we just want to go to this place, and worry about not being able to reach Shadow Keep Back Gate without solving water crisis in Church District, then it’s not necessary.
We just need to treat Church District as a springboard, and then use the ladder to return to the warehouse in Shadow Keep. Then we just need to follow the route to back door of Shadow Keep, where we will fight Commander Gaius, a remembrance boss, but his charge is difficult to avoid. If you want to try, be sure to be well prepared.
After you have good fortune to kill Commander Gaius and claim your reward, do not leave the arena. This area may have been explored by many people, even several times, but it is not uncommon for some people to miss exploring fields behind Shadow Keep.
As we continue along the road, we can see Scadutree Chalice. In this place, players will find five Scadutree fragments. Therefore, it is necessary to defeat Commander Gaius. After defeating him, we can not only get remembrance and some runes but also Scadutree Fragments. This item is invaluable to us and can easily win in future battles.
Abyssal Woods is considered by many players to be the scariest place in entire game, but it is very difficult to find for some people. This is a completely optional region, and if you don’t read the guide, you will most likely miss it. After defeating Golden Hippopotamus, players need to explore the keep on their own and find the secret ladder.
After we find the ladder, we cross a waterfall and discover the secret of a painting. Then we need to take the classic FromSoftware teleporting coffin to Castle Watering Hole. We have to go forward along the road, and then we not only have to dark-light catacombs but also defeat a boss, so that we finally reach Abyssal Woods.
In Abyssal Woods, we have to face a situation. There is a large invisible area without Torrent, and there are some untouchable enemies that we must avoid. Now complete these, we can reach Midra, Lord of Frenzied Flame.
Maybe you didn’t get the thrill of this area after reaching the secret area behind Shadow Keep, then Shadow of the Erdtree will definitely satisfy your needs. We can see a room on the right side of Shadow Keep Back Gate site of grace. When we enter this room, we can see a statue and a message in the room. If you make a Mother gesture in front of the statue, it will open and reveal a hidden passage to Hinterlands.
There are two paths in that place that lead to different areas. One path leads to Shaman village, which is shrouded in a timeless aura and is a very peaceful area. The other path leads to creepy ruins, where we can see a huge finger protruding from ground. This place involves part of Count Ymir’s quest, and we can find the detailed answer in Manus Metyr.
If you were stunned by the blue flower fields in Cerulean Coast, you will definitely be stunned by the red flowers in Charo’s Hidden Grave. There are no remembrance bosses, but that doesn’t mean there are no prizes. In fact, there is a lot of anti-loot to be obtained, and players will be stunned by visual effects.
We can reach this hidden area by the giant dragon corpse in Grand Altar of Dragon Communion. Most players don’t want to step on this sacred corpse, so they will miss this hidden place.
If you like to observe what is happening around you while exploring the world, or like to study the map to get to a specific area, you will definitely notice that there is a small island south of Shadow of the Erdtree. It seems to have no connection with the mainland, but if there is no connection, how can it appear on the map?
We can clearly see a building on the island, that is Southern Nameless Mausoleum, which is easy to miss. We have to go through an underwater tunnel to reach this island. The entrance of tunnel is next to the tree closest to the island. Once you arrive, you can fight Dancer Ranah, and it is worth mentioning that armor set dropped can increase damage.
These seven places are the places that are easy to be overlooked in the game. I hope this guide can help you. If you want to know more information, players can join IGGM discord, where you can get more information, and there is also a giveaway channel, so please join us!
Midra, Lord of Frenzied Flame, is an optional boss in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, and some of his attacks will cause a serious Madness build-up to the player. While Midra is not as powerful as some of the supreme bosses, fighting him still requires you to be quick on your feet.
Midra resides in Midra’s Manse, which can be reached through Abyssal Woods. You must first clear Darklight Catacombs, unlocking Abyss portion of the map.
It is important to note that when passing through Abyssal Woods, be careful of the untouchable enemies, and you will later come across a door leading to Midra’s Manse, behind which are many headless corpses with their heads covered in a layer of golden material.
Midra has many attacks that cause Madness build-ups, so be sure to equip Elden Ring Items that improve your focus, such as Clarifying Horn Charm and Mottled Necklace +2. Flamedrake +3 Talisman is also a good choice, as most of Midra’s melee and Flame of Frenzy attacks will cause Fire damage.
Therefore, it is recommended that you equip armor with good fire resistance. If you use a shield, be careful that his melee attacks will cause minor fragment damage, also Fire damage.
Midra, Lord of Frenzied Flame, is fairly weak to Bleed and Frostbite, and relatively strong to poison and scarlet rot. Using dual Katana is a fairly simple strategy against this boss, one for Bleed and the other for Frostbite.
In addition, if you are looking for more game resources to prepare for the fight against Midra, there is a Giveaway function in IGGM discord, which will occasionally release product gift information. Remember to stay active in the discord group so you don’t miss any messages.
When you enter Midra’s Arena, you will find him in Human Form. You cannot use Spirit Summons during this phase. He can quickly jump on you and cause a madness build-up at this time, and you must be wary of his grab attacks.
After defeating his weakened Human Form, you will face Midra, Lord of Frenzied Flame. At the beginning of the battle, he will launch Flame of Frenzy attacks on you, and you can choose to dodge from the side or choose to take the damage and Madness build-up while summoning Spirit Ashes.
After dodging or taking his initial attack, Midra will occasionally open his arms and launch Flame of Frenzy attacks when you are far enough away from him. All attacks with Midra’s arms open can follow a straight line, so they can all be dodged by rolling to the side.
To mix things up, Midra will tilt his head forward and shoot out Flame of Frenzy in a horizontal attack that you can choose to properly dodge by rolling backwards or forwards.
The boss will also launch a 3-hit melee attack that can be dodged by quickly rolling backwards. You can also easily block the attack with a shield, but you may take minor damage.
Be sure to have your sword ready when you see Midra levitate. You can easily dodge this by rolling backwards. Or he will lunge at you with a powerful swing, which can also be dodged by rolling backwards at the right time.
Midra has another variation of the 3-hit melee combo, where he uses a stabbing attack to end the combo, and then his sword unleashes spikes after a brief delay. This attack will cause you to roll backwards. To properly dodge the last blow of this combo, you must roll backwards once more after dodging the stabbing attack.
Midra, Lord of Frenzied Flame, will enter Phase Two when he reaches 60% health. During the transition, he will fly up and slam his flaming head into the ground, launching an explosive attack with vast range. The best way to dodge this move is to move away from him and jump at the point of impact.
Afterwards, he will most likely fly towards you and attack you with his great sword, which can be dodged by rolling backwards. He will mainly use the attacks from the first phase, with a few new ones thrown in.
Midra may also jump into the air and slam his sword into the ground, causing spikes to burst out of the ground. You can dodge the initial attack by rolling in any direction, but only rolling backwards will avoid the spikes.
When his health reaches 40%, Midra’s sword will catch on fire, and his swing will send a wave of flames at you. During this time, most of his melee attacks will send a wave of flames, so you’ll have to be careful to dodge them. Rolling to the side will be your best bet.
This phase can be easily ended by dodging his attacks, and once his sword is back to normal, you can easily take him out.
With the right strategy and preparation, Midra is no longer a daunting opponent but a path to a deeper gameplay experience.
In each phase of World of Warcraft Classic Season of Discovery, new runes were introduced for each class. Of course, in Phase 4, there are also new runes for Mage, such as Mage Cloak Runes and Mage Ring Runes.
They can all provide you with various skills or bonuses, just to achieve a competitive balance when you reach the highest level. Although some old runes have been removed, replaced, or even completely changed, new runes will be added in each phase, so don’t worry about the number of runes.
In the latest phase of WoW SoD, you can collect three new Mage Cloak Runes and some Mage Ring Runes. This guide will detail the location and effects of Mage Cloak Runes and Mage Ring Runes, so that you can find and use them faster.
You can fire a missile at the target enemy and cause huge Arcane damage. In addition, Arcane damage has a 20% chance to trigger Missile Barrage ability, making you more powerful.
In WoW SoD Phase 4, Arcane Barrage is actually only available by reading enough Books, which is a continuation of a Greater Friend of Library Season of Discovery.
You have to read at least 35 books in this phase, so be sure to keep an eye out for places where you might find books and read them. Stormwind Library is a good place to start, as is Scarlet Library wing, which has a lot of books. You don’t have to go looking for these books, as they are everywhere in Azeroth.
When you use this rune, you will launch a spinning orb of ice that you can move forward quickly for 16 seconds. During this movement, the orb can deal Frost damage to enemies every second and apply Chill effect to them.
The first time the orb deals damage to an enemy, it will also slow down its movement speed. If you have Fingers of Frost Rune slotted, you can also trigger this rune’s effect.
Phase 4 Frozen Orb Rune is located in Felwood. After defeating Deadwood Furbolg enemies in Felwood, you will receive Mysterious Darnassian Scroll item, which you can decrypt with the Comprehension Charm you obtained earlier.
Then, you need to go to (60,13) and find a Night Elf NPC Calyx Greenglow wandering around the area. It will give you a quest called Healing The Healer, which you can then follow to Felwood to defeat Irontree Stomper enemies, which will eventually give you Unusual Flask and a bunch of SOD Gold.
Finally, you need to go to Winterspring to talk to Calyx Greenglow again, and after leaving, you need to defeat Enraged Shade to get a Frozen Orb rune.
This rune ensures that your Critical Strikes will deal critical hits. Additionally, while you have Overheat equipped, you can cast a Critical Strikes while casting another spell. Best of all, Critical Strikes have a 15 second cooldown and are not affected by GCDs! These effects make your fights much easier!
Overheat rune is in Western Plaguelands. You need to use Fire Spells on four Novice Frost Mage enemies in Western Plaguelands so that they will be unfrozen.
After unfrozen, you also need to remove their Lesser Curse ability to give you one of the four Torn Spell Notes. The four Novice Frost Mage enemies are located in Dalson’s Tears, Felstone Field, Gahrron’s Withering, and Writhing Haunt.
When you have all four Torn Spell Notes, you can create Overheat rune. Remember, you don’t have to kill Novice Frost Mage enemies outright, but if you accidentally hit them too hard, you’ll need to wait for them to respawn and try again.
In Phase 4, all Mage Ring Runes are obtained in the same way - by finding a specific book somewhere in the map. Mage Ring Runes can be unlocked. It can improve your skills for a weapon or spell specialization for a specific class.
When you reach the highest level, when facing elite monsters above level 60, the enhanced effects of your weapons or spell skills can reduce the chance of missing attacks or spells. Without further ado, let’s take a look!
Applicable classes: Druid & Hunter & Mage
Rune of Arcane Specialization increases your chance of hitting the target when using Arcane spells. It can increase it by at least 6%.
You need to go to Hearthglen, the northernmost part of Western Plaguelands. Ring Rune book that can unlock the rune is near the coordinates (46, 16).
Applicable classes: Mage & Shaman & Warlock
Rune of Fire Specialization increases your chance to hit with Fire spells by 6%.
You need to go to Searing Gorge to find a Slag Pit and find Overseer Maltorius’s room. If you don’t have a sense of direction, you can find it directly above Archeologist area of Slag Pit. Once you enter the room, you will see a Red Book, which is Ring Rune book that unlocks this rune.
These are some of the runes you can use to enhance your Mage in World of Warcraft Classic Season of Discovery Phase 4. I hope you have fun exploring Phase 4, and we’ll see you in Azeroth!
Sword of Night can be found at the end of Ymir questline and is the perfect choice for any defensive build that just wants to sit behind a Great Shield and stab you to death. It is a unique Katana in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree.
Sword of Night is a good Katana that can hit pretty hard with a fast attack speed, has real combos in its pocket, and can punish defensive builds with quite ease. If you are struggling with how to build this sword for the best results, read on.
A big part of what makes Sword of Night unique is that it has a solid set of moves and a special Ash of War called Witching Hour Slash. This attack can hit three times, charge up for more damage, and cannot be blocked by opponents. It also has true combo functionality, going from an uncharged Witching Hour to an uncharged heavy attack. So if you do a Witching Hour Slash and heavy attack combo, you can deal a ton of damage to your opponent, and if they’re using a low vitality build, it’ll kill them outright.
The strength of Witching Hour also presents a problem for this weapon. Witching Hour Slash animation is long and has no armor, so it’s easy for aggressive opponents to either hit each other or simply knock you out of this Ash of War. While the combo itself does a ton of damage, single hits or your basic heavy attacks don’t do much damage or balance damage.
But these weaknesses don’t stop Sword of Night from being a perfect choice for shielded enemies or players who are looking for a fun Katana and a fun Ash of War. Its strengths will also make it more useful in PvP than in PvE. For PvP, Witching Hour Slash’s multi-hit nature and Sword of Night’s heavy attack make it very useful when picking up the ball. Witching Hour Slash can’t be blocked, so it’s also a perfect weapon for countering opponents who rely too much on Great Shields or heavy evasion.
Since Sword of Night can be knocked out easily, it must rely on weapons to keep its balance. As long as you reach a balance of at least 76. You can wear almost any armor with this weapon, which is the ideal breakpoint to keep you protected from most light attacks. If you want to protect against almost all light weapon attacks and most medium weapon attacks, you will need to build a balance of 98 to 125.

Pairing it with another weapon can help alleviate the disadvantage of Sword of Night’s lower damage. Having a weapon with a long range but slow swing speed, such as colossal weapons, Great Spears, or Great Katana, can complement Sword of Night well. Because the long-range weapon makes up for sword’s weak range, but Sword of Night’s fast swing speed can cover short distances.
In addition, you can choose to pair Sword of Night with another samurai sword to increase the damage caused. You can wield two Katanas and still use Witching Hour Slash. While your range is still limited, the damage output at close range makes up for it.

Because it can only be expanded through Dexterity, and not its Ash of War or Infusion, you need to have a total Dex of 80 to get the most damage out of this weapon.
Also, having 40 or 45 Arcane points ensures that your Bleed activations deal more damage, allowing you to make the most of Bleed effect in PvE.
The best talismans with Sword of Night can help increase its low damage output or make it more survivable. Here are some amulet options to consider:
It increases Witching Hour Slash damage by 15%. Have a talisman that can enhance your Ash of War damage. Helping you take full advantage of your damage window when using Witching Hour Slash and punishing greedy shield users, this Talisman should be considered a consistent staple in Sword of Night.
Godfrey Icon adds 15% more damage to a fully charged Witching Hour Slash. This is better for PvE, where you are more likely to land a fully charged Witching Hour Slash on bosses and slower enemies. If used with enough poise and combined with Shard of Alexander, a fully charged Witching Hour Slash will give you an advantage when they try to hit you with your Ash of War.
Balance is an important attribute in Sword of Night for players who plan to use Ash of War often. Bull-goat’s Talisman can increase your Balance by 33%, making it a great fit for your build if you want to reach above 98 Balance without giving up Lightweight.
Sword of Night attacks quickly, and with three attacks in Witching Hour Slash, it’s pretty easy to keep both Talismans active to deal more damage. Equipping both Talismans at the same time allows you to maximize attack damage without relying on Ash of War, but some builds prefer spare Talisman slots over increased damage on multi-hit attacks.
If you plan on using Sword of Night with both hands, Two-Handed Sword Talisman increases its damage by 15%. Bringing its damage to a decent level, but not as good as having a better weapon on the other hand. If you prefer to use Sword of Night’s moveset completely, this Talisman is a must-have.
Sword of Night is a worthy choice. So pick up this blade and brave the world of Elden Ring!
