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.
S-Game recently released a demo video about the boss battle, which aroused the strong interest of all players. Below I will share some information about Phantom Blade Zero with you based on this video.
The conventional offensive means of the game are the light attack and heavy attack of the main weapon. Taking PlayStation controller as an example, the corresponding buttons for light and heavy attacks are the square button and the triangle button. Players can use the combination of light and heavy attacks to perform combos, cause damage, and reduce the enemy’s health.
There are two main defensive means in the game:
L1 defense is divided into continuous defense and perfect defense. Press and hold the L1 button. The character will take a defensive posture and defend against the enemy’s attack at the cost of consuming Sha-Chi. If the protagonist’s Sha-Chi is exhausted, there will be a big stiffness, and he will be unable to move for a short time, allowing the enemy to attack.
In contrast, pressing L1 at the moment before the enemy attacks can achieve perfect defense, which will not only not consume your own Sha-Chi, but will reduce the enemy’s Sha-Chi. If the timing is not accurate and perfect defense is not achieved, a certain amount of Sha-Chi will be consumed. Perfection can be judged by the orange sparks of the weapon collision during defense. If the enemy’s Sha-Chi is exhausted, of course, it will enter a big stiffness, and this is the best time for the protagonist to attack.
The slide dodge of the R1 button is a relatively safe defense method in the game. It does not consume any resources and can handle almost all attacks of the enemy in the game.
Among the many enemy attack methods, there are two special attacks that require extra care, namely red light attack and blue light attack.
It is not difficult to see that the core combat system of the game is centered around Sha-Chi.
Different from the defensive system in Sekiro, Sha-Chi is both a defensive resource and an offensive resource. The player’s Sha-Chi can be used for defense or to launch a heavy attack with the triangle button to perform a combo. The enemy can also defend your combo, but it will reduce the enemy’s Sha-Chi.
In summary, the most basic combat strategy of the game is to use L1 to defend perfectly and use the triangle button to perform a heavy attack at the right time, while guarding against the enemy’s undefended red light attack and using R1 to resolve it. For players with a basic understanding of action games, the basic combat mode can be mastered in about ten minutes.
This main weapon is actually the two weapons held by the protagonist in both hands. The short knife in the left hand is Crimson Viper, which is mainly flexible and maneuverable, mainly used in light attacks; the long sword in the right hand is White Serpent, which has large and long attack movements and is mainly used in heavy attacks.
The biggest feature of White Serpent & Crimson Viper is flexibility and maneuverability, and it can execute enemies from a distance.
In the first stage of the boss battle, the player needs to fight seven enemies at the same time. Obviously, the chief is our main target.
If you only attack the chief, you will find that when his health drops to a certain value, a companion will use silk thread to replenish his health. At this moment, you realize that you also need to reduce the number of enemies on the battlefield as soon as possible, and don’t give the chief a chance to recover.
The snake-shaped long sword White Serpent is swung wide, and the action often rotates in a circle, which is very suitable for dealing with multiple enemies. More importantly, the short knife Crimson Viper can trigger the execution action at a distance without getting close to the body, which is very useful for quickly clearing the field.
This weapon’s combo often has a small stiffness when closing the move, and it can stop at any time. When attacking, you can immediately press the perfect defense when you close your hand, and the attack and defense switch is extremely fast.
The feel of Soft Snake Sword is completely different from that of White Serpent & Crimson Viper. When you first use it, it is just like it looks, soft and weak, with low damage and poor ability to reduce Sha-Chi.
The hidden mechanism of Soft Snake Sword is: after holding down L1 to defend, press the triangle button to initiate a new parry action. If you have resources (the points below the weapon icon), consuming one grid of energy to parry the enemy’s blue light attack perfectly can almost instantly clear the enemy’s Sha-Chi value and derive a new combo move.
This demonstration is one-to-many. In action games, one-to-many is not a well-designed battle scene, or it is not compatible. Friends who often play action games must have a deep understanding: the one-to-many in Ninja Gaiden is very fun, but the one-to-one boss battle is not so refreshing; the one-to-one duel in Sekiro is very exciting, but it is easy to be killed by attacks from all sides when it is one-to-many. One-to-one and one-to-many are not easy to balance.
Just like in action movies, if the villains rush forward, two fists cannot beat four hands. Even if the protagonist has a lot of skills, he will probably lose. If the villains stand aside and watch, it is too fake, and anyone can see that it is acting.
The soldiers can neither rush in all at once and beat the protagonist so that he can’t fight back, nor can they just stand by and watch indifferently. These seven brothers have provided a new solution.
When there are many people on the scene, the seven will frequently set up formations and attack together. This not only resets the battlefield situation and prevents the player from being surrounded for a long time, but also gives the player a good time to cause damage, because this move is easy to resolve and can immediately make a set of heavy damage.
When there are not many people on the scene, his companions will take the initiative to adjust their position, surround the protagonist, and attack in turn. This method seems to surround the player, but because the attack and defense speed of the game is very fast, the enemy’s movement time is completely enough for the player to deal with the enemy in front of him, which actually gives the player time to defeat them one by one.
At the end of the demonstration video, the protagonist uses a giant axe to end the chief. It should be noted here that when this giant axe is activated, the protagonist is not invincible and will stop moving when hurt. The video demonstrator is obviously very familiar with this move, so he confidently uses this move to end the battle.
Phantom Blade Zero will announce its release date this year, and you must be impatient! Let us wait for new news about this game together.
Path of Exile 2 is about to enter Early Access, and as the highly anticipated sequel to Path of Exile is finally here, fans will experience the sequel to one of the most popular games in recent years.
Although Grinding Gear Games has been highly transparent during the development process and has maintained good interaction with the community, there are still some common questions about Path of Exile 2 that have not been answered. The following guide aims to briefly answer some of the most concerned questions of players.
The release date of PoE 2 has been confirmed as December 6, 2024 at 11 am (PST), when the game will be released into Early Access. However, it has not yet been announced when the game will leave Early Access and when the full version will be released.
For players who have been looking forward to this game for a long time, although it will take some time to experience the final version of the content, at least there is now a clear start date for Early Access.
Path of Exile 2 will be available on multiple platforms, including Mac, PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S and X. However, it should be noted that Mac users cannot participate in the early access for the time being, but the official said that it will be opened to this platform later.
Regarding the cost, Path of Exile 2 itself plans to be free to all players from the official exit of early access to the official release. However, if you want to experience the charm of Path of Exile 2 in advance, you need to pay a certain amount to obtain the qualification.
Specifically, there are two major ways to enter the early access: one is to get a PoE 2 Supporter Pack, which is divided into three different price points, namely $30, $60 and $100. The second is to unlock the qualification by accumulating a micro-transaction consumption record of $480 in Path of Exile 1.
PoE 2 early access offers three different levels of Supporter Packs to meet the needs and budgets of different players. These packages are:
PoE 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to PoE, introducing many new stories, exploration areas, and core game mechanics. Although there are connections between PoE and PoE, PoE 2 is designed to be a completely new game that runs on its own client. In addition, according to the official information released on Steam platform, PoE 2 is expected to require at least 100GB of storage space.
PoE 2 has three acts and a rudimentary endgame. For most players, it is expected to take dozens of hours to complete all of this content. However, during Early Access cycle, the development team also plans to add more additional content to enrich the gaming experience. This means that there may be new quests, characters, or features that will be released after the official release.
PoE 2 plans to launch 12 different classes for players to unlock using POE2 Currency. However, in the upcoming Early Access, only 6 of them will be open for players to try. The six initially available classes are: Mercenary, Monk, Ranger, Sorceress, Warrior, and Witch.
Since PoE 2 was first announced, Grinding Gear Games has released a series of trailers and gameplay videos, providing players with a lot of information about the game. Recently, the studio released a new trailer showing the opening animation of PoE 2. In addition, Grinding Gear Games has released multiple other videos that detail the gameplay and mechanics of PoE 2.

Path of Exile 2 is a cooperative game that allows players to play with friends locally (couch co-op) or online multiplayer, with up to six players per group.
Path of Exile 2 features cross-platform play, so whether you’re playing on PC, Xbox or PlayStation, you can connect and interact with players on other platforms for a seamless gaming experience.
Many players are concerned about Path of Exile 2 Pre-Load and Controller Support. Actually, players will be able to pre-load the client a few days before the game is released.
Regarding controller support, players can use controllers to operate Path of Exile 2 on both PC and consoles.
As more information is released, we have reason to believe that PoE 2 will be a game that will surpass its predecessor and become a benchmark for the next generation of ARPGs.
Despite the release of Vessel of Hatred, it is clear that the game’s officials intend to continue to provide content for Diablo 4 and stick to their plan to expand the game every year.
According to this plan, the official may launch another DLC of the same scale as Vessel of Hatred around 2025. Players may expect some new content at that time - just as Spiritborn is part of Vessel of Hatred, players may see another new class added in the next DLC.
As for what the next new class will be, the content in Diablo 4 Season 7 may reveal some information. In the current discussion about Season 7, one of the most anticipated contents is the newly added seasonal power, Witchcraft. As a result, some people speculate that the new class added in the next Diablo 4 DLC may be Witch Doctor.
In a recent Campfire Chat, Diablo 4 developers discussed the changes that will be coming to Season 7 update, which is scheduled to be released early next year. In addition to some changes about Diablo 4 Items, a big topic of discussion about Diablo 4 Season 7 is the newly added seasonal mechanic Witchcraft, which players who know the classic Diablo class may be familiar with.
Witchcraft powers sound similar to Vampiric powers added in Diablo 4 Season 2, which players need to obtain and equip by using Potent Blood unlocked in the seasonal quest line. Diablo 4 will follow this mechanic, and players will use Witchcraft powers to fight and earn more Diablo 4 Gold.
While abilities such as summon exploding frogs sound novel, this is actually not the first time Diablo series has touched on the concept of dark magic. For example, Witch Doctor, introduced in Diablo 3, emphasizes the use of magic and summons to kill enemies.
If Diablo 4 plans to reintroduce Doctor Witch in a future expansion, then Season 7’s Witchcraft mechanic could be the perfect prelude to his return.
Witch Doctor can summon Zombie Dogs, Giants, and use a series of terrifying ritualistic spells to kill enemies. This class is like a hybrid of Necromancer and Druid in Diablo 2. Like Druid, this class can also control natural forces and use them to deal with Diablo’s minions.
Spiritborn in Diablo 4 comes from Nahantu, which is also the hometown of Witch Doctor in Diablo 3.
When Vessel of Hatred revealed its background Nahantu, many players expected Witch Doctor to return. However, the official launched Spiritborn, a class that draws inspiration from Witch Doctor and also incorporates elements of classes such as Monk.
Some players think that Spiritborn in Diablo 4 is a substitute for Witch Doctor, but in fact, the two classes are different and can sometimes complement each other perfectly.
Spiritborn uses spirit animals, and by possessing the spirits of certain animals, Spiritborn can change their fighting style according to different spirits. The power of Witch Doctor is based on Voodoo.
If Spiritborn is a holy warrior of light, he uses his shamanistic powers to summon their guardian spirits to fight alongside them. Then Witch Doctor is a terrible warrior who defends Nahantu in Diablo 3 by channeling the power of death and resurrection.
Many players believe that Spiritborn is a combination of Druid in Diablo 4 and Monk in Diablo 3. This statement also shows where Witch Doctor can fit in the class line-up.
Witch Doctor is a brand new class introduced in Diablo 3, but players will not feel unfamiliar with it when they start using it. Because the skills it uses are similar to those of past Diablo classes such as Sorcerer, Druid, and Necromancer.
Witch Doctor in Diablo 4 can combine many elements of the two popular classes, Necromancer and Rogue, and take advantage of the Crowd Control support provided by minions and the agility similar to Rogue to create a whole new play style.
The core part of Witch Doctor’s skills is its ability to summon Zombies and Vermin, which makes it a close relative of Necromancer, but Witch Doctor’s ability is not limited to this, and it still has a lot of room to play.
Besides summoning minions, Witch Doctor can also use Ceremonial Daggers as a primary weapon, which makes them similar to Rogue in terms of basic weapon attacks.
Some people commented on Witch Doctor: It is unique, strange, scary, creative, and goes against people’s expectations of dark fantasy. It is conceivable that if Witch Doctor can be implemented in the more mature and rough visual atmosphere of Diablo 4, it will make the class more visually appealing.
That being said, many players believe that in addition to Witch Doctor, Crusader or Paladin type class may also become the official next choice.
Of course, everything is just speculation based on the existing information, and we will have to wait and see what the specific situation is. But we can still keep looking forward to it.
As you’d expect from this series, completing the main campaign of Diablo 4: Vessel Of Hatred is just the beginning. After completing Vessel Of Hatred’s story, you’ll unlock a ton of endgame activities to take part in, from open-world demon slaughter to challenging dungeon crawling, and everything in between.
Now, a month after the release of Vessel Of Hatred, the first expansion for Diablo 4, many of you have probably finished it. But this isn’t the end of the series, and completing the main campaign is just the first step in your exploration of this unique expansion. There are tons of endgame activities to take part in after you’ve finished Vessel Of Hatred.
However, with so many activities to do, it’s hard to know where to start without this guide. Here, we’ll show you what you can do to explore the rest of Vessel Of Hatred in your free time. But it’s important to note that the order in this guide is for reference only, and you can explore at your own pace.
Once you complete the ultimate quest in the expansion, you’ll unlock the Deeds of a Champion epilogue quest, which is an overview of the game’s endgame activities. Through this quest, you’ll get an excellent overview of the key activities in Kurast Undercity, Tree of Whispers, Helltide, and Pit of Artificer. This very simple quest should only take you about 10-20 minutes to complete.
Helltide is a major part of the endgame, both in the base game and in DLC. Every hour, a portion of the map will be covered in Helltide, so there are demons in these locations that can provide you with rich rewards.
Defeating these demons will drop a ton of Diablo 4 Gold and loot, as well as Aberrant Cinders, the most important currency to use while Helltide is active. Before Helltide ends, you can use them to open Tortured Gifts you find during your exploration.
It is important to note that your Aberrant Cinders will not follow you into the next Helltide area, so you need to spend them while the current Helltide is active. In Tortured Gifts, you may get some wonderful rewards, such as experience points, some Legendary aspects or Uniques.
If you want a helper to explore Helltide, you can first use Baneful Hearts to summon Blood Maiden and then defeat it. It will drop a lot of Aberrant Cinders and other loot that is very useful for your build, so that you can better explore the subsequent content.

It is worth mentioning here that Kurast Undercity is a new endgame activity introduced in Diablo 4 Vessel Of Hatred, which provides you with a lot of content to explore. Deeds of a Champion quest mentioned earlier will guide you to unlock this new activity.
There are three floors in this Kurast Undercity for you to explore, and the first two floors need to be completed within a limited time. As you kill monsters on these two floors or clear Braziers around the dungeon, your Attunement attribute will rise, making it easier for you to challenge the enemies on the third floor. Most importantly, these operations can increase the chances of the bosses on the third floor dropping some excellent loot.
So, Kurast Undercity is a good way for you to farm some ultimate equipment in the early stage, but be careful not to spend all your energy and time here, because there will be more profitable ways later.
Infernal Hordes is an endgame event where waves of enemies attack you. You will have a very difficult combat phase, but the loot you are rewarded with at the end of the run will allow you to ignore those difficulties completely.
However, it should be noted that before entering Infernal Hordes, you need to obtain Infernal Compass, which you can craft at Occultist, or you can collect it in endgame events such as Nightmare Dungeons or Helltide.
You can modify the difficulty of each wave of Infernal Hordes through different modifiers. The greater the difficulty, the better the loot you will get at the end, and the more Aether you will get. Although this is a good way to increase your Paragon level, you need to be reminded that you need to modify it within the tolerance range of your build, otherwise it will not be worth it.
The above is what you can do after completing Diablo 4 Vessel Of Hatred. As the first expansion of D4, Vessel Of Hatred still has a lot of interesting exploration content waiting for you. If you encounter some problems during the exploration of the above activities, you are welcome to ask questions and find answers in IGGM Discord. If you are lucky enough, you can even get some very precious Gold or items in it. I wish you a happy game!
The new Pitch Predator Evolution is now available in EA Sports FC 25 Ultimate Team, and you can use this mechanic to get the game’s deadly strikers for your team. In addition to improving the player’s overall stats, Evolution also gives you Trivela and Power Shot, which increases your team’s chances of scoring goals.
In this game, you need to keep in mind some requirements, and only use players with a maximum of 85 overall, a maximum of 95 pace, a maximum of 7 PlayStyles, and a maximum of 1 PlayStyles+. Also, note that the player must have “Striker” as one of their positions. Here is a detailed list of the best players for Pitch Predator Evolution in EA Sports FC 25. Let’s take a look!
First, let’s take a look at Mayra Ramirez’s stats. Her overall stats are summarized in the following aspects. Her Card variant belongs to Inform, Overall Rating is 85, Position is ST, and Rating after Evolution is 86.
Mayra Ramirez is a female striker who is in excellent form and has excellent stats in the game. Not only has she achieved excellent results for Chelsea in Women’s Super League, but she also received an Inform card this season. Using the same card can get a pace 86-rated striker, allowing you to maximize her potential in FC 25.
In addition to speed, she also shows amazing numbers in other aspects. After she completes Evolution, she will reach physical 88, dribbling 87, shooting 86, passing 80.
Next is Takefusa Kubo. His Card variant is also Inform, with an Overall Rating of 85, a Position of RM (ST Secondary Position), and a Rating after Evolution of 86. His stats are not much different from Mayra Ramirez mentioned above.
Takefusa Kubo was once recognized as Japanese Messi, and he has lived up to the expectations in recent years. This player is very important for Real Sociedad and played an important role in the 2023/2024 competition, which eventually achieved an excellent sixth place.
Although his main position is RM, you can also choose to hire him as a striker if you like to have a skilled player like him. After owning this Evolution, his final stats are pace 90, dribbling 87, shooting 85, and pace 82.
The next player introduced is Hugo Ekitiké. His Card variant is also Inform, with an Overall Rating of 83, and a Position and Rating after Evolution of ST and 86, respectively. Compared to Mayra Ramirez, only Overall Rating is lower, the other aspects are the same.
In the 2024/2025 season, Eintracht Frankfurt has been one of the best performing teams in Bundesliga. Hugo Ekitiké has performed very well in the forward position and has played a vital role in their start. You can use his Inform card in Pitch Predator Evolution to enhance players’ attributes to make him even more powerful in your hands.
Before Evolution, his overall rating was 83. After completing different challenges, his data will be greatly improved, and his overall rating can reach 86 points, pace will reach 91, shooting 84, dribbling 84, physical 80.
The next FIFA 25 player is called Jonathan David. His Card variant is Inform, Overall Rating is 84, and his position in the team is still ST. Rating after Evolution can reach 86.
In FC 25, Jonathan David is also an excellent striker. He is a Canadian striker who has contributed great statistics for Lille in Ligue 1. He is able to combine pace and dribbling, allowing you to break through the opponent’s defense and score goals.
You can increase his overall rating to 86 in the new Evolution, which will greatly improve his statistics at the same time. Mainly in these aspects: his pace can reach 90, shooting reaches 86, and dribbling reaches 82.
In addition, he has a 5-star weak foot, which allows you to easily score with both feet. There is disagreement in the community when it comes to interpreting the skill action of 5 star weak foot. Because this information is not publicly disclosed, this mystery will increase the mystery of the gamer’s ability.
Let’s move on to the next player, Viktor Gyokeres. His Card variant is Base, Overall Rating is 84, Position is ST, and Rating after Evolution is 86.
Swedish striker has been scoring goals in a steady stream, and Viktor Gyokeres has been called one of the best strikers in world football in the 2024/2025 season. He has played a lot of games for Sporting CP and the national team, and has achieved some excellent results. As a result, he has attracted the attention of several top teams and is expected to make great achievements in the next few years.
His basic card stats in the game are quite good, and with the help of Pitch Predator Evolution, this will give your team a great striker and more chances to win the ultimate game and a huge FUT 25 Coins bonus! Viktor Gyokeres’ stats after Evolution will include physical 91, pace 90, shooting 85, dribbling 80.
The last player, Moise Kean is introduced below. His card variant is Inform, Overall Rating 84, his team position is ST, and Rating after Evolution 86.
Fiorentina can achieve excellent results in the 2024/2025 season thanks to the outstanding performances of Moise Kean and David de Gea. The striker from Italy has scored many goals on the field to prove his powerful ability. His perfect physique will make you choose him as No. 9 player in Ultimate Team, and you can try to use him in the new Evolution.
Once you complete all challenges in FC 25, Moise Kean’s 84-level Inform card will reach an overall rating of 86. Then his data will change as follows: pace 91, physical 86, shooting 85, dribbling 83.
These are the detailed lists of the best players in Pitch Predator Evolution on FC 25. After learning about the data performance and playing methods of these players, have you thought of your favorite players? Next, let game lovers explore the world of FUT 25!
As the first DLC of Diablo 4 series, Vessel of Hatred has aroused heated discussions and attention from players before it was officially launched. After it was officially released in October this year, it attracted many Diablo 4 fans to download and experience it.
At present, Vessel of Hatred has been released for almost two months. If you are interested in it, I believe you should have completed it, or at least experienced most of the content of this expansion. So when reading and experiencing the main storyline, did you find that there were still some questions that the game did not give simple answers to until the end of the entire DLC?
Although Vessel of Hatred has received many praises, some players also said that the main storyline has the defect of not being fully developed. Based on this, we have selected 8 questions that DLC has not yet answered to introduce to you.
How Inarius managed to escape from Mephisto’s domain is one of the most pressing questions of Vessel of Hatred. And you can’t simply assume that Inarius broke through Mephisto’s defenses because Mephisto was weakened, because this is not the first time Mephisto has been weakened.
In fact, more information about how Inarius escaped from the domain remains a mystery. You might guess whether it was because Might give him a blessing? Or was Mephisto’s defense weakened? But only the official response can we know for sure.
If your journey of Vessel of Hatred has reached the relevant stage, then you must be wondering how the protagonists brought Lilith back to Sanctuary? Just like what happened to her husband? How easy is it to get from the magic prison pit to Sanctuary?
In the plot, Lilith was once banished to the void, a place that is said to be impossible to escape, but she has successfully escaped twice. And Diablo 4 has not indicated that there are creatures that can create path points from heaven and hell to Sanctuary. If it is easy to escape from this void, it means that it is not a reliable prison, which will make you feel that the plot setting is not rigorous enough.
Therefore, this question also requires the game official to give a response in subsequent seasons or new expansions. Otherwise, when you need to farm Diablo 4 Gold and the related tasks are related to Lilith, this will undoubtedly affect your overall task experience.
Diablo 4 series has multiple playable classes, each with a different story. And facing the classic characters representing each class, I believe you have always been curious about who the protagonist of Diablo 4 is?
If Druid tribe or the children of Rathma saved the people of Sanctuary, it would be a unique thing for them. Because different questions are raised, each sequel has a playable profession, and they will work together on the mission. Unfortunately, you will not get the relevant answer until the sequel.
You will find that there are actually no angels in DLC. Although it’s a win for Inarius, this feels weird and doesn’t feel good for Sanctuary rebuilding series. It also makes you wonder: Are there any angels worried about Lilith’s return or Inarius’s escape? And where is Tyrael?
Tyrael was mortal at the end of Diablo 3, but no one knows if he will be reincarnated like the other angels after his death, and he is also the only angel who retains his identity after rebirth. This makes you wonder: will this happen twice?
In Diablo 4, the seven demons reappeared and Soul Reaper put them into the human world for more temptations, but at present in Vessel of Hatred, we don’t know exactly how they are progressing.
The strongest demon is reforming, while his weaker brother has transformed and returned to Sanctuary. The reformation may take a long time because he is the strongest and there is more to rebuild. It is not clear whether the other five demons have also reformed.
And what about Baal and Diablo? Are they alive or dead? Since no explanation is given in DLC, the game officials should respond in a later update.
Leoric Family has been involved in the game since the original Diablo series, and it can be said that they are also involved in Diablo 4. But surprisingly, in the expansion, it seems that this family has finally rested. This is a frustrating realization because it means that they may say goodbye to you.

In fact, the warrior of the original Diablo was nameless. However, he was glorified as the protagonist in Diablo 2, and in Diablo 3 he became the son of King Leoric.
We expect that the fate of Horadrim may be revealed at the end of Diablo 4 series, rather than being shown throughout the series, including DLC. There are only two members left, and there is a possibility that a new member will appear.
In the end, Neyrelle abolished her path, Lorath left, and Donan died. Since Tyrael stopped leading before Diablo 1, Horadrim has been in decline, and its former glory is gone.
When Deckard Cain became the last student of Horadrim, he had some vitality. However, Lorath lost his first student. He went mad, and the second student was also lost for reasons he didn’t know. These blows were undoubtedly huge.
At the end of the game of Vessel of Hatred, Neyrelle decided to leave with Mephisto’s soul stone, which may also be the beginning of the next story of Diablo series.
It’s not safe to travel with a hateful soul, and Neyrelle has exposed herself to direct danger by doing this. She may need to figure out where she is going. In addition, she lives in isolation and Mephisto is likely controlling her. She also seems to be heading west. You will wonder what is waiting for her on the other side?
We hope that in the next new season or new DLC, the game developers can answer or respond to these questions in the main storyline so that you can have a smoother journey of Diablo 4. Thank you for reading.
In the upcoming Diablo 4 Season 7 PTR, the official showed some of the upcoming features and changes. At present, the update content of Season 7 is worth looking forward to.
Season 7 will draw inspiration from Diablo Season 2 and launch powerful new skills for players to learn. Unique runes and gem types can also be used to further enhance builds to help you win more easily in the game.
Even better, the much-anticipated Armory feature is finally available. This system should make it easier to save and swap loadouts in Diablo 4. In addition, Season 7 will also usher in some quality of life changes, and the player experience will be greatly improved.
It can be foreseen that these changes will bring a lot of fresh experiences to players. The following will introduce some of the updated content revealed by the game officials in Diablo 4 Season 7 PTR, including Witchcraft Power, Armory Tools, Class Buffs and so on. Let’s take a look!
The theme of Diablo 4 Season 7 is about Witchcraft Power. It follows Season of Blood, one of the most popular temporary leagues to date, and especially its Vampiric Powers. Similar to Season 2’s Vampiric Powers, characters can gain unique powers before the end of the season. Some of these powers can only be found in the world, and you need to find altars in dungeons and activate them.
These bonus powers are a great way to tweak and enhance builds, and it will help players create a more unique set of seasonal loadouts. In the next season, players will have access to new Witchcraft abilities.
The new Diablo 4 powers are divided into three schools. Psyche powers can disrupt and weaken enemies, Eldritch Powers are mainly used for you to deal or enhance your elemental damage, and Growth and Decay Powers include poisons, minions, and stat-draining skills. You’ll need these to deal with a series of dangerous new enemies - they’re called Headrotten, which are both normal enemies and boss enemies.
The main enemy of this season will be Headrotten. These are essentially “green Helltide” of Season 7, with some areas becoming areas where Fugitive Head and Headless Husk bosses can appear, and other Whispers of the Dead challenges to complete.
Killing them earns you Restless Rot. This unlocks and upgrades new Witchcraft powers and Occult Gems for your character. This process is much more streamlined than it was in Season 2.
Headrotten can also be found and killed in Headhunt areas like Helltide. These areas also double as Whispers. Earning reputation with the coven is tied to Whispers.
Many classes in the game have been buffed. Some of this is due to changes to how certain passives work.
As for Spiritborn, which has been a concern for players, there were several issues that caused it to be more powerful than expected in Season 6, and many players felt it was overpowered. This will improve once these issues are fixed in Season 7.
As with every new season, the loot pool will expand with new unique items, and some existing loot pools will be adjusted.
Another big new addition is Armory. Players have often called that Diablo 4 Armory is an in-development feature that would arrive eventually, and now it’s finally ready.
Armory offers five loadout slots per character, allowing you to save and load multiple loadouts per character, and each loadout can also have a different Paragon panel. Even better, once you’ve saved your loadouts, you don’t have to spend extra Diablo 4 Gold to switch between them - even if they require different paragon loadouts.
You can find Armory in a number of places, including Tree of Whispers, Sanctuary towns, and even within Citadel.
Players will see some quality of life changes in their Whispers grind in Diablo 4 Season 7, including the following.
In addition, there are very convenient features such as Raven of the Tree, and the player experience will be greatly improved by then.
These are some of the updates that may be launched in Diablo 4 Season 7. PTR client will be open from Tuesday, December 3 to Tuesday, December 10. This time, PTR will include seasonal content, not just core gameplay adjustments for the new season. PC players can try out the upcoming features and changes in it.
If you are interested in the updated content, you may wish to experience it in Diablo 4 Season 7 PTR first. But as usual, you need to log in to Battle.net to join it.
