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.
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.
In Diablo 4 Season 5, players can pick up some Mythic Uniques while attacking bosses. But you may suffer a lot of damage in this process, especially when facing those powerful bosses.
Many Unique items in Diablo 4 Season 5 bears an opportunity to drop during Infernal Hordes events that take place in World Tier 3 and 4. But it’s not certain which item will drop, or if it will match a perfect combination with your character’s build. In the base version, twins Andariel and Duriel, owns the greatest odds of dropping a Mythic Unique.
Moreover, in Season 5, those admirable items shared high rarity in the game have appeared some changes in the aspects of name, appearance and even the rate to drop.
So is there any other way to get the Mythic Uniques you would like to embrace in the game? Of course, that is, players craft Mythic Uniques on their own. This is targeted, and we will introduce the specific situation of Mythic Uniques in detail below.
In this game, there is a lot of loot to get. But there are differences in quantity. Among them, Mythic Uniques are the rarest. Here is the order of rarity of loot:
Mythic Unique > Unique > Legendary > Rare > Magic > Common
There are eight categories of Mythic Uniques. Six of them are suitable for any classes, and the remaining two belong to particular classes.
Players can craft any Mythic Unique you need with the help of an Alchemist vendor, who are NPCs reside in many Waypoint towns throughout Sanctuary. Alchemists can be found in many places, the most common of which is Kyovashad. Players could click on “Transmutation” menu from the Alchemist’s store to ensure the location of Mythic Unique items.
Under “Transmutation”, there is a “Transmute Sparks” menu. Under this menu, players can see the Mythic Unique weapons or gears that their character can use, so they can craft and select according to their needs, then to craft the items you need. The Gold and Resplendent Sparks cost for each item keep the same, that is, 50,000,000 Gold and 4 Resplendent Sparks. For those items you can not equip or use, they will not appear in the vendor’s menu.
In Transmutation Alchemist menu, you can find the section of “Summoning Item” and “Crafting Materials”. You can check these two sections to find out what else this vendor can make according to the needs of your character.
According to the previous description, players need a lot of Diablo 4 Gold to craft Mythic Uniques, so how to earn Gold has become a problem of concern to everyone.
Players can farm enough Gold from various activities, such as Helltides, Nightmare Dungeons, World Bosses, or Infernal Hordes. Among them, Infernal Hordes is the most recommended activity, and the amount of Gold obtained is proportional to the difficulty of the wave. When players choose a higher difficulty, sometimes they can even harvest millions of Gold at once.
As for the way to harvest Resplendent Sparks, the best way is to break down Mythic Unique items you already have while without being actually used. Just like the way of getting Aspects of Legendary gear through destroying Legendary gear, players could eliminate a Unique item in exchange for its Sparks. Together with the Gold needed, this could let you basically transform a Mythic Unique you already owned for another one you dream for.
Players can also embrace Resplendent Sparks by participating in some activities. Each of the following activities will reward players with a Resplendent Spark:
As mentioned above, players can obtain Mythic Uniques by attacking Tormented Bosses. Let’s analyze this situation below.
According to the official explanation, all Tormented Bosses have 5 chances to drop a Mythic Unique, with 1.5% odds each time. In conclusion, the chance to drop a Mythic Unique is 7.5%. Stygian Stones serves as a necessary condition to summon Tormented Bosses, and is particularly rare material in Diablo 4 Season 5.
For Stygian Stones, players can complete tasks in your Season Journey and Mother’s Blessings reputation board to get. But they share a very limited number. For both Seasonal and Eternal Realm players, Stygian Stones will be served as a reward for processing The Pit for players, which represents an endgame dungeon activity in Cerrigar.
Based on the sharing of multitude of players, the best and easiest way to earn Stygian Stones is through running Infernal Hordes activity, which will drop from Tier 7 and above of Infernal Hordes.
The above is the sharing about how to craft Mythic Uniques in Diablo 4 Season 5. Hope it can help you and get Mythic Uniques you want in the game. Thanks for reading.
Black Myth Wukong, which has been waiting for many years, was officially launched some time ago. It has attracted much attention for its exquisite graphics and unique concept, and relying on the best Chinese mythology story, “Journey to the West”, its mythology is even more intense.
In addition, this is also the first AAA game created by a Chinese developer. But since it was officially launched on August 20, some players love it very much, but some players feel that it has not met their expectations.
If you haven’t decided whether to own this game, you might as well take a look at this guide. In this guide, we will show you all the advantages and disadvantages of Black Myth Wukong, allowing you to make a decision based on your actual situation.
In Black Myth Wukong, your vision will be greatly satisfied, which is undeniable. Judging from the videos and photos of the current players, all the images are very clear and balanced, and you can even adjust the color tone of the entire game by yourself.
Long before the release, many players already knew that in order to explore Black Myth Wukong, you need a very powerful PC and you need to use MAX settings to get a very smooth experience. But even if you have a God-tier PC, it can’t completely solve the performance issues that are currently appearing in Black Myth Wukong.
But this is a newly released game after all, and it doesn’t break the game experience, so don’t worry too much. If you want to get the best gaming experience, you can wait for a while for the developers to fix the previous bugs in the game.
Although the trailer for Black Myth Wukong was released as early as 2020, it was difficult to tell from those videos and photos whether it would provide you with open world features. At the time of the official release, players were very sad that Black Myth Wukong did not have an open world.
But this does not mean that Black Myth Wukong is not good, or that you should give up on it because of this. Although you can’t explore the open world in Black Myth Wukong like in games such as Elden Ring, many areas in each chapter are like part of the open world, and you can also explore freely in them.
As I said before, the early trailers for Black Myth Wukong showed players a vast but somewhat complex game full of lives, enemies, and areas to explore. So far in the game, the developers have fulfilled most of their promises, and even exceeded them a bit. But if you like long explorations, Black Myth Wukong may disappoint you a bit.
The disappointment here is definitely not to blame for the brief time to complete Black Myth Wukong. It takes 15 hours to complete the principal mission in Black Myth Wukong, which is good compared to many other games that do not reach the 10-hour mark.
If you fully explore Black Myth Wukong, you may need 32 hours. This may be a better choice for players who are used to other games that last more than 60 hours. And so far, the 32 hours of full exploration have not disappointed players in any way.
In video games, cutscenes have always been a point of contention. Some players like them because they help players better understand the whole story, but some players feel that watching cutscenes is like watching a movie instead of playing a game. Both views are correct, because there are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand people.
So how long is the cutscene limit? As mentioned above, it takes 15 hours to complete the main game in Black Myth Wukong, and 32 hours to fully explore. In that, the time of all the cutscenes adds up to a little more than 3 hours.
Although the cutscenes in Black Myth Wukong are very beautifully made and a visual enjoyment, the overall market accounts for 20% of the main game and 10% of the overall content. After defeating Black Bear Guai at the end of the first chapter, the entire cutscene lasts about 20 minutes, introducing the origin of this monster and the origin of Black Myth Wukong Items you get.
If you are one of those players who likes cutscenes, this is very good for your eyes; but if you don’t like such long cutscenes, you may be very annoyed when playing Black Myth Wukong.
The last and most important point is that it is both Soulslike and not, in a sense. Because it has bosses scattered throughout various areas, and the combat mechanism is mainly based on avoidance, there is no option to adjust the difficulty, plus the concept of the total game. It is very much like Soulslike.
However, the handling of player errors and character deaths in Black Myth Wukong is much more tolerant than any game from FromSoftware. First, character death will not cause you to lose your entire skill point pool, and secondly, upgrades and leveling up can be performed in all areas, not at specific rest points.
Most importantly, all bosses in Black Myth Wukong, although very challenging, are not as difficult to master and difficult to defeat as bosses in Souls series. In addition, the difference between Black Myth Wukong and Souls series can also be seen from the variety of weapons - Destined One only has one scepter, not multiple weapons like in other games.
If you are obsessed with the diversity in Soulslike, then Black Myth Wukong is not suitable for you. I hope that after you read the explanation of the advantages and disadvantages of Black Myth Wukong in this guide, you will calmly think about whether you really want this game, instead of blindly following the trend. I wish you a happy game!
Diablo 4 Season 5 is in full swing, and if you want to advance your main character to the level cap as quickly as possible, then don’t miss this guide. Here we will show you where and how to level up your character from level 1 to level 100 faster. Now let’s get started!
The best place for leveling in Season 5 is Helltide. Helltide has been updated and improved since Season 4, and now it is filled with monsters with a very high density, so you will be so busy killing demons that you will have no time to rest, no time to breathe, and even no time to die. This will be the best place to gain XP.
Since the monster density is very high, you can easily collect a lot of Diablo 4 Gold and XP, so you’d better stay in Helltide and fight until level 35.
During this process, always keep an eye on your map. If someone summons a Blood Maiden, you can see a signal from Accursed Ritual on the map, run to it quickly and join the battle! A large number of monsters will pour into the area, making this place very chaotic, and at the same time, it will give you abundant XP.
In addition, defeating Blood Maiden will reward you with Gear and Tempering Recipes. If you have any Baneful Hearts, don’t forget to deposit it in Altar, as it will also give you extra Gear.
As you level up and kill demons in Helltide, Threat-Meter will also increase. Threat-Meter has 3 tiers, and when you reach the highest tier, it will spawn many enemy ambushes at your location, and Threat level bar will start to deplete.
After dealing with all these enemies, a powerful Hellborne Boss will spawn. Defeating it can get valuable rewards, including Profane Mindcage.
However, please note that dying at any time while clearing the 3-tier ambush will reset your Threat-Meter. So be sure to keep working hard, make sure you are always contributing to its rise, and don’t die.
You can also use Profane Mindcage to increase the level of Helltide monsters by 10 levels to gain more XP. It can now stack up to 3 times, and XP reward for killing higher level monsters is no longer capped, which means you will get more XP if you are willing to take the risk, but you may also suffer if you are not strong enough.
Therefore, it is recommended that you spend your hard-earned Aberrant Cinders before fighting any tough enemies, as half of Cinders will be lost upon death. Please prioritize spending your Cinders on Tortured Gifts of Mysteries Chest, as it will have a chance to drop a Baneful Heart, rare equipment and materials.
In the meantime, you can complete all Bounties around Sanctuary during the 5-minute rest time in Helltide. However, it is recommended that you prioritize Bounties that will reward 5 Grim Favors, such as defeating Seething Abomination and completing the dungeon, over Bounties that reward 3 Grim Favors, such as Purify Seeds of Hatred and completing Harvest.
Additionally, Whisper Caches rewards from Tree of Whispers will give you a ton of XP, so it can significantly speed up your leveling progress.
Before you start grinding like crazy, though, be sure to start the seasonal quests by talking to Captain Cireska in Zarbinzet, who’s standing east of Zarbinzet Waypoint waiting for you.
After you create your seasonal character, you’ll respawn there, then follow the questline to unlock seasonal rewards and new Hellbreach Dungeons. This is also a great place to level up your character.
You can find dungeons marked with a green leaf icon, which are short and quite rewarding, especially when you want to gear up your character, and completing a dungeon with 20 Burning Aether opens up Spoils of Hell II, which drops a bunch of gear, including legendary gear.
You can also try crafting some basic Elixirs, which will give you 5% extra XP. Crafting it only costs you 5 Bundled Herbs and 1000 Gold, so pick your favorite Elixirs and craft it at a very low cost to make sure you always have it popping up during combat!
Don’t worry if you don’t have any Bundled Herbs, you’ll stumble across plenty while hunting around Sanctuary, and you’ll need them to upgrade your Healing Potions as well.
Also, don’t forget to consume your Smoldering Ashes by learning Urn of Aggression, which will also boost XP you get from killing monsters. Having these bonuses can greatly help you level up faster.
Also, you can also Tempering your gear while increasing your levels, which can help you kill enemies faster and improve your survivability. This doesn’t cost too much materials, just 5 Iron Chunks and 2 Veiled Crystals.
Once you reach level 35, it’s time to move on to World Tier 3, but before that, you need to complete Capstone Dungeons first. Although the level requirement for this dungeon is level 50+, you should be able to handle it at level 35, as long as you make sure you have at least decent gear and it’s all Tempering.
If your character can’t handle those demons in Helltide, you can head to PVP areas of Alzuuda and Denshar to slowly level up.
However, we recommend that you prioritize farming Denshar, as this area has more elite monsters. Killing them will drop Sacred gear you so desperately need. Meanwhile, completing all bounties in that area can earn you more Diablo 4 Gold.
Repeat these steps until your character reaches level 55 and fully upgrades all your gear to Sacred gear, then you can head to Helltide and start grinding until level 100. This is definitely the most efficient way to get you to the level cap as quickly as possible.
Once you’re ready, then let’s head to the next World Tier and start your journey to level 100! These are our leveling tips for Diablo 4 Season of the Infernal Hordes, and we hope these tips can help you level up faster. Until next time!
The process of finding the first set of Beast Claws in Elden Ring DLC is fairly straightforward, as they are located near the starting area of DLC. These Beast Claws can be infused and replace their Ash of War. This guide will recommend a build that features Cold Infusion and will also suggest some other builds that showcase the potential of Beast Claws.
In Elden Ring DLC, players can find Beast Claws in the first area, Gravesite Plains. To obtain it, first ascend the steps from the starting point of DLC, then turn right and head towards the woods to the southeast. In these woods, there is a subtle enemy NPC, Logur the Beast Claw, who uses Beast Claw as his primary weapon, when you approach him, he will make a high-pitched bird-like sound as a clue to his location. It is worth noting that he is proactive and may attack before you see him.
Beast Claw is a pair of weapons whose attack actions are designed to help players move forward in combat, so your attacks can still hit even when facing retreating enemies. Beast Claw’s fast attack speed can help players quickly stack status effects, and because of its short recovery time, players can quickly take evasive actions after using attacks.
This type of weapon also has a special evasive attack mechanic, performing an evasion operation while charging a heavy attack can achieve a slashing attack on the enemy while retreating, so that the enemy can be damaged even when moving backwards. In addition, Beast Claws support the use of special skills Ash of War: Savage Claws and Raging Beast.
This build relies heavily on Beast Claw’s high affinity for Cold Affinity, combined with Sorcery to maximize Int Scaling provided by Cold Affinity. By inflicting Frostbite with a quick attack, and then resetting the damage type with Magma Sorcery, this build can effectively whittle down enemy health at a variety of combat distances. Additionally, mastering powerful Gravity Sorceries is extremely beneficial for this style, as it helps players control enemy movement, making it easier to disrupt their defensive posture.
This build focuses on Sorcery, and in order to pull this off, players will need to amass numerous Elden Ring Runes to raise their Intelligence to at least 60. To stay resilient in combat, we recommend setting Vigor to 60, which almost guarantees that you won’t go down easily when attacked. Meanwhile, 40 Mind ensures that you have enough focus to frequently use Weapon Skills and Sorceries.
Strength is set to 20 because, despite our choice of Cold Infusion, the claw’s damage output is still directly related to Strength. Dexterity only needs 11 points to meet the basic requirements for using claws. 18 Faith allows us to use all Magma Sorceries, and if you plan to upgrade your character to level 150 or above, you can even further increase Faith to 15 points to unlock more powerful magic such as Golden Vow. Arcane has no effect on the accumulation of frostbite, so it can be kept at 10 points.
Since our equipment cannot be too heavy, we need to choose light armor, and Blue Cloth Set is a good choice because it has quite good defense. In actual combat, you should dual-wield Beast Claw, and equip Carian Regal Scepter in your left hand so that you can quickly switch when you need to cast a spell.
If you want to get more damage out of Magma Sorcery, you can add Gelmir Glintstone Staff to the right equipment slot and switch it before casting Magma Sorcery with Regal Scepter to get an additional 10% Magma Sorcery damage bonus while still benefiting from Regal Scepter’s superior Sorcery Scaling.
Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman should be the first choice for defensive amulet, as it reduces physical damage by 20%. To enhance the damage output of Lava Magic, you can equip Talisman of the Dread, which provides a 14% bonus to Magma Sorcery damage. In addition, Rotten Winged Sword Insignia is also an excellent choice, as it increases the damage output of all types as the attack continues. If used properly, you can also use the damage bonus of Rotten Winged Sword Insignia to strengthen your spell attacks.
For the fourth Talisman Slot, Blessed Blue Dew Talisman speeds up FP regeneration, which is very useful during exploration, reduces the reliance on Blue Flasks, and ensures that you can always use Ash of War. FP regeneration is particularly key for spell-heavy builds. Turtle Talisman is also an excellent choice to help keep your stamina bar full.

Beast Claw, as an infusible weapon, offers great flexibility and fits many build styles. One recommended approach is to focus on Arcane and a moderate amount of strength to create a bleed build. Taking advantage of Beast Claw’s inherent bleed effect, as well as their unexpectedly powerful strength expansion after Bleed infusion, can effectively increase damage output. In addition, these weapons show amazing strength expansion after heavy infusion, so going all-in on a strength build is also an option worth considering maximizing this.
Another interesting build is a strength/faith build that combines Crucible and Bestial Incantations, which utilizes specific spells to enhance offensive capabilities, using Clawmark Seal can gain extra advantages in battle. These builds not only improve the player’s combat efficiency but also add fun and challenge to the game.
As players continue to explore and experiment, you can discover more innovative ways to build and further expand the game experience. No matter which build you choose, Beast Claws will become a powerful assistant for players to adventure in the world of Elden Ring.
There are many Gestures in Elden Ring that seem to have limited uses. For example, Erudition Gesture seems to only be a means of communicating with other players in PvP mode.
However, they are much more than that. More of their functionality can be unlocked as players explore the region of Land of Shadow.
Erudition Gesture is primarily acquired by completing a questline for an NPC. This quest requires players to traverse the many rooftops of Raya Lucaria Academy. Below is a detailed description of this method and how to use Erudition Gesture to solve two secret puzzles in Lands Between to earn rewards.
Players need to complete a questline for Sorcerer Thops to obtain it. You need to help him retrieve an item in exchange for Erudition Gesture. Sorcerer Thops can be found in Church of Irith in Limgrave, sitting with a gloomy face. And the church can be found just outside Stormveil Castle in Elden Ring.
While speaking with Sorcerer Thops, the player will be given information about the item, an Academy Glintstone Key, which will help Thops return to Raya Lucaria Academy. You may find the first Glintstone Key in the west of the south-facing Academy Gates, but this key is only used to help the player enter Academy, and is not the one Sorcerer Thops needs.
Once inside Raya Lucaria Academy, the location of the second Glintstone Key requires the player to fight Red Wolf of Radagon , in Debate Parlor. This boss is a bit tougher to fight, who boasts formidable Sorceries, overwhelming bite attacks, and quick swings of its large magical blade. Players can use Slash, Hemorrhage, and Poison-based attacks to deal with him, or choose to refine performance of your character to by devoting some Elden Ring Runes to slay this boss.
After defeating him, players need to exit Debate Parlor to the garden outside. Climb the staircase to the west and bypass, or slay enemies you have met to get extra Runes. Jump over the railing, traveling to the left of the door, which represents as a shortcut to the location of Rennala, Queen of Full Moon.
Near the shortcut door, there is a Glintstone Sorcerer, who will interrupt the progress of entering or withdrawing from the entrance. So you need to defeat him. After entering the shortcut door, travel westward to the top of the stairs until you find another railing needed to be jumped over, which will lead your way to the rooftops.
Along this path, you will find many Marionettes. Go past them until you come to a ladder that leads to a bridge above. It is best to defeat these Marionettes first to avoid being attacked halfway up the ladder. While the player can swiftly sprint past them, defeating them can be counted as the best choice. Not to mention that you will also find a Golden Rune along the way.
After reaching the top, the player needs to face west and jump onto the rooftop below. Then continue walking down. You will encounter some more Marionettes. After defeating them, jump off the west-facing ledge.
After passing the corner, there is a semicircular roof. The player needs to jump onto the roof and defeat Marionettes patrolling above. You will then see an arched window beside building which you must enter to clamber on the rafters. After walking in, you will see a corpse lying on one of the furthest beams. Head towards there and you will find an important item in Elden Ring, while the second Glintstone Key is being left on the first chandelier on the south side of the room.
Then go back to Church of Irith with the second Glintstone Key that Sorcerer Thops needs. You will have another conversation and when he mentions the key again, give him Glintstone Key and he will reward you with Erudition Gesture.
After embracing Erudition Gesture in Elden Ring, players must employ it in a particular location to solve the puzzles. You should open up the main menu in the first place, where the section of “Gestures” can be found on the right side of your screen.
First, head to Converted Tower, which resides in the southwest region of Liurnia of the Lakes. On the ground level of the tower, perform Gesture in front of the colossal statue to solve the first puzzle.
Behind the statue, the door locked by the barrier will vanish, then players could find the initially locked-out area, Find a chest which includes a Memory Stone, which will enhance your memory slots for Sorceries or Incantations, and is pretty suitable for a Mage or Faith player.
Next, you can exhibit the same Gesture at Converted Fringe Tower, residing in the northeastern part of Liurnia of the Lakes. Similarly, enter the tower and perform Erudition before the statue to figure out the second puzzle. The player will then get a chest with two Sorceries in Elden Ring, Cannon of Haima and Gavel of Haima.

In Diablo 4, each season has new top-tier builds, and while there are some familiar builds, the strength of the builds will change more or less to meet the needs of different seasons.
Diablo 4 Season 5 provides players with amounts of new unique items and rewards, which serve as strong boosts and powers for players, helping them attack bosses in an easier way. But it is still the choice of classes and builds that determines the player's performance throughout the season.
While Season 5 is still in full swing and the meta is constantly changing, the following 7 builds are currently recognized as the best builds. Let's take a look.
As one of the top classes in the previous season, Necromancer has been greatly weakened in Season 5. Despite this, it can still cause a lot of damage and upgrade. Necromancer Minion Build is still an important medium for quickly increasing levels. However, it has become much slower in leveling, and will be less effective against the hordes of Lilith. In this case, players can collect some Diablo 4 Gold to get some equipments to better increase the speed and deal with the bosses.
Here are the skills and gear recommended for this build.
Landslide Druid can deal a lot of damage to enemies in Season 5, and it attacks very quickly. It can preempt enemies before they can launch an attack. It moves fast and can make clear of high-level Pits that other builds may struggle to deal with.
Even if the player doesn't have the highest level gear and skills, this build was still slaying bosses and enemies in a simple way in a World Tier IV Level 100 Pit.
Direct Bash Barbarian is listed as the highest-rated Barbarian build for this Season. Just using it for regular strikes, billions of direct damage could be created. So it's very capable of dealing damage, and no other forms of passive damage would be produced.
The amount of extra overpower damage it caused is particularly unbelievable. Moreover, high stability also characterizes this build.
Perhaps because of its long-standing dominance, Fire Bolt Sorcerer build has also been nerfed a bit. But it is of significant power in essence.
The most important part to this build is Shard of Verathiel, a unique Sword that enlarges the damage done by Basic Skills.
While most builds are more effective in the late game, this build is much better with lower-level gear in the early game. So if you are just starting out, this build is a good choice. When you start leveling up or start to collect all of Mother's Gifts this Season, it is the time to change build. That's because there is a more powerful Sorcerer build available.
Rogue class may be used habitually by many players. Rapid Fire Rogue build also has very strong potential. The pairing of Umbrocrux also gives Rapid Fire Rogue infinite power.
Umbracrux refers to a unique dagger equipped with powerful skills of scaling, dexterity, and some tricks. It also enhances your Subterfuge Skills by creating Shade Totems. These skills could create damage when being hurt as could be categorized to Trap Skills.
Andariel’s Visage remains one of the primary reason making Rogue build S-tier this Season. This is a Mythic Unique item, which means plenty of players could only get in the late stage of the game, and may not be practical for the vast majority of them to get it. This is the reason that deprives the first place on this list.
But if you try hard to get it, then Andariel’s Visage would godsend you an extra life, a high Attack Speed, amounts of Resistance, and a Lucky Hit ability to employ a nova of Poison Damage. This will level up the degree of any other Poison damage, and you should wield other Poison skills to the maximum when using it.
As a Sorcerer build, Lightning Spear Sorcerer takes the first of this list. The damage it has basically comes from two places: Lightning Spear and the new Aspect in Season 5 called Splintering Energy. Therefore, this build can both deal a lot of damage and protect players from damage.
These two damage dealers are main resources to help you achieve this campaign. Moreover, you don’t need any high-level equipment to bless it. I believe that with Lightning Spear Sorcerer build, you will definitely be able to move forward and take the lead in the game.
