Call of Duty Black Ops 7 released a small update on November 25th, addressing player-reported issues such as unexpected disconnections and game crashes causing lost progress in CO-OP campaign Endgame mode.

Below, we'll provide a detailed overview of this new mechanic, keeping you informed about the latest developments and enhancing your gaming experience.

Endgame Mode

As a new PvE mode introduced in CoD BO7, CO-OP campaign Endgame mode offers greater flexibility compared to traditional Call of Duty game modes.

This mode provides players with a wealth of missions and challenges, while the ability to freely explore the area allows players to control the pace of the game. Whether exploring solo or teaming up for cooperative combat, Endgame mode caters to your needs.

In the game, you land in Avalon. During your journey to the pick-up zone, you can freely explore the area, cooperating with other players to complete challenges and missions and level up your combat rank. The ultimate goal is to successfully extract with loot.

Avalon is divided into four zones, each with different requirements for players. As the difficulty increases, players will face more challenging missions and objectives.

To avoid repeated failures due to insufficient equipment and weapons, it's best to choose suitable items and upgrade their levels before the game starts to help you dominate.

There are many ways to upgrade weapons in Call of Duty Black Ops 7. Whether you choose to engage in dangerous adventures in multiplayer or Zombies modes, or hone your skills against equally skilled players in CoD Black Ops 7 bot lobbies, you can improve your abilities.

In each battle, your equipment will also improve. With repeated battles, you'll be able to easily handle the powerful enemies in Avalon's higher-level zones.

Meanwhile, high-damage weapons will help you overcome difficulties in easier zones more quickly, unlocking more challenging content faster, and ultimately leading to the extremely difficult final showdown in CoD BO7.

Disconnect Protection Mechanism

The official patch note on November 25th mentioned the details of this update. The new disconnect protection mechanism introduced in this update preserves a player's combat rating in Endgame mode.

When a player lands in Avalon to start a match, the game automatically captures their current Combat Rating.

During the remaining game time, players can complete in-game challenges and missions to improve their Combat Rating, just as before.

However, if an unexpected event causes a player to quit the game or the game to disconnect, upon re-entering the game, the player will start the next match with their previously recorded rating.

This mechanism saves players time compared to restarting the game, allowing them to progress to higher levels more quickly.

It's worth noting that the developers mentioned developing a more robust mechanism to ensure player protection.

Imagine future games featuring more intelligent and customizable mechanisms. Players won't have to worry about losing their progress due to accidents; even if they accidentally quit, adjustments can be made to maintain their current progress instead of reverting to a previous state.

This update fully demonstrates that the official CoD Black Ops 7 team has always paid attention to the needs of players. This approach of constantly adjusting based on player feedback will provide players with a better gaming experience and win more players for the game.

In ARC Raiders, one way for players to improve their strength and have a perfect gaming experience is to equip themselves with higher-level items and weapons. Most items can be found by scavenging on the map, and with a bit of luck, you might even find rare items.

ARC Raiders has many maps, and some very popular areas are frequently explored and looted by players. Because so many people are searching for these areas, competition between players not only reduces the chances of finding items but also increases the risk of accidentally dying and losing hard-earned loot during the struggle.

Many players are eager to find a safe and stable area where they can focus on looting. If you're also struggling with this problem, then this guide is for you!

Among the many maps, I personally find Buried City particularly interesting. The map's eerie and mysterious atmosphere showcases the decline of a city's civilization, giving Buried City a unique advantage and charm among the many maps available.

Buried City boasts many underrated loot spots, especially those rarely explored and little-known by other players. Looting in these locations offers both a higher drop rate and greater safety. You can safely enter and exit buildings without excessive worry about interference or competition from other players.

Therefore, when exploring Buried City, head to the best looting spots on the map. Here are a few must-visit spots:

1. Santa Maria Houses

If you've completed Digging Up Dirt mission, you'll be familiar with this area. Although these houses are in the center of Buried City, most players simply pass through while looting, missing the hidden loot within.

Next to the houses on the west side of Santa Maria Houses, there's a Weapon Case. This case has a chance to contain high-level weapons from ARC Raiders, such as Hullcracker and Equalizer, which will significantly boost your combat power.

Inside the house in the middle of the villa complex is a Security Locker containing two utility kits. These kits might spawn some rare Grenades.

Since Santa Maria Houses connects to several easily overlooked looting areas, it's often overlooked and rarely explored, making it an excellent looting spot.

2. Abandoned Highway Camp

If you haven't been here before, you'll need to climb onto the roof to reach this campsite. However, Abandoned Highway Camp itself is not what we should focus on; the most important thing is the big house next to it.

This house beneath Old Town Hatch is like a treasure trove; it's easy to enter without any effort, requiring no puzzles or specific keys. You can find numerous Weapon Cases, Medical Duffel Bags, and utility kits here.

Note that this house can only be entered from the north side. If you're unlucky enough to be on the south side, you'll have to jump in through a window. At the same time, because this place is very close to Old Town Hatch, it can greatly ensure that players can evacuate safely.

3. Red Tower

Red Tower is located on the east side of Buried City. If you've done Communication Hideout mission before, you've definitely been here.

Players can find a house filled with furniture to the right of Residential icon shown on the map. Many players simply search the first floor and leave, but the real loot is on the second floor of  Red Tower. You can find a Security Locker here, two Weapon Cases above it, and even some other types of chests.

However, Red Tower is slightly more dangerous because it's surrounded by enemies, including a Bombardier. This is probably why many players don't linger here, missing out on such a wealth of resources.

4. Marano Station

Marano Station has a relatively high Weapon Case drop rate. Although it's on the western edge of the map, players can still obtain a considerable amount of loot here. Inside Marano Station, players can find up to two Weapon Cases, and possibly some other ARC Raiders items.

However, be aware that this location is relatively remote. If you're not familiar with the area, it's best to carry an Adrenaline Shot to ensure you have enough stamina.

Meanwhile, there's another Weapon Case near Train Station Hatch outside. So, if you're lucky, you can find three or even more weapons here.

5. Parking Garage and Galleria

Parking Garage and Galleria consists of two buildings located between Buried City Hospital and Space Travel. Both buildings have multiple floors, offering numerous places to loot.

For example, the upper level of Parking Garage appears spacious, but the basement on the lower level is a raider camp with abundant resources. The remaining buildings also have a chance to spawn Weapon Cases, making this a prime looting spot.

While this location, which doesn't require a key to find Weapon Cases, is a good choice, it reduces some hassle for players. However, be aware that high-value loot also exists around the buildings, which will attract other raiders.

Patrols will also be present nearby, so players must be more vigilant in this area compared to other zones.

These are five must-visit looting spots on Buried City Map. Santa Maria Houses, Abandoned Highway Camp, and Marano Station are relatively safe, offering loot opportunities without other distractions.

The houses in Red Tower, as well as Parking Garage and Galleria, are a bit more dangerous. Be careful not to be discovered by enemies or competitors while looting.

Many more loot areas like these will appear in the game. Use them to acquire ARC Raiders items you want and continuously improve your combat abilities!

On November 20th, ARC Raiders received patch 1.3.0 update. This update addresses and adjusts several bugs and balance issues that previously plagued the game, ensuring a smoother and more engaging shooting experience for both veteran and new players.

Below, we'll provide a detailed overview of ARC Raiders patch 1.3.0, hoping this article will help you understand the key points of this update.

Balance Adjustments

These balance adjustments primarily target ARC Raiders items and their impact, making the game more playable through subtle tweaks.

Deadline

• Price Adjustment: The exchange price has increased from 8100 coins to 15000 coins. The selling price has also increased from 3000 coins to 5000 coins.
• Crafting Materials: After the adjustment, to craft Deadline, players will need to invest more materials, requiring 3 Explosive Compounds and 2 ARC Circuitry.

Power Cell

The price of Power Cell has been adjusted, with its selling price reduced from 640 coins to 270 coins.

Launcher Ammo

• Price Adjustment: Average exchange rate per shot increased. Previously 6000 coins for 10 shots, now 4500 coins for 6 shots. Selling price also increased from 200 coins to 250 coins.
• Crafting Materials: Crafting 6 Launcher Ammos now requires 1 ARC Motion Core and 2 Crude Explosives. Fewer materials are required compared to before, but the rarity of the required ARC Raiders items has increased.

A pleasant surprise is that in ARC Raiders patch 1.3.0, crafting Launcher Ammos in Workbench no longer requires blueprints; you can craft them directly.

Venator

• Fire-rate After Upgraded: Reduced from 22/44/60% to 13/26/40%.
• Weight: Increased from 2 to 5.

Recently, ARC Raiders noticed that top-tier Venator units could easily defeat encountered enemies. Additionally, player feedback indicated that its weight was inconsistent with other pistols. After adjustments, players need to be more cautious when facing enemies.

Explosion Damage

Adjusted explosion damage to ensure consistency across ARC robots:

• Damage dealt to ARC robots is now more evenly distributed.
• Small enemies like Turrets are largely unaffected, while large units like Bastions take slightly less damage.

This change reduces the likelihood of players destroying large drones too quickly using ARC Raiders weapons such as Hullcracker. Players need to operate the weapon with greater precision if they want to deal enough damage to enemies with this type of weapon.

Content And Bug Fixes

ARC

Fixed a bug where ARC robots could summon reinforcements outside the map for extra assistance, increasing the game's difficulty.

In ARC Raiders patch 1.3.0, Shredder will have more accurate detection and be more easily confused by Lure Grenades. Its movement mechanics have also been optimized, braking performance improved, turning speed reduced, and its navigation system improved to prevent getting stuck while moving.

Map Fixes

• General Fixes: Optimized the actual effect of Barricades, reducing their overlap with player characters and preventing clipping issues.
• Dam Battlegrounds: Fixed a bug in ARC Raiders where players could get stuck in the elevator shaft of Dam Control Tower and access locked rooms in the tower without a key.
• Spaceport: Added collision volumes to the stair walls and ceiling of Hidden Bunker and fixed wall-clipping issues near Launch Tower ramp.
• Blue Gate: Adjusted railing props that incorrectly blocked bullet fire on this map so that bullets function correctly.
• Stella Montis: In this ARC Raiders patch 1.3.0, fixed collision issues near Train Station, removed player spawns that were too close to ARC robot spawn area, and fixed a lack of visible collision on the walls of Business Center.

Movement And Weapons

Enhanced enemy ground detection, allowing for better handling of complex terrain and reducing erratic movement on sloping terrain.

Weapon-wise, the issue of Aphelion tracers being overly bright at long range, affecting player visibility, has been fixed. Additionally, its blueprint drop rate has been increased; if you manage to obtain this blueprint and craft this powerful ARC Raiders weapon, it will add a layer of security to your adventure.

Furthermore, the issue of incorrect reload time percentages displayed during Stitcher level upgrades has been corrected.

Audio

Adjusted the volume attenuation effect of the ear-piercing and shockwave effects from explosions in ARC Raiders, improving clarity and helping players better immerse themselves in the game.

In addition to the above updates, this ARC Raiders patch 1.3.0 update includes a small surprise.

The description mentions that Raider Den has been ducked out, accompanied by an image of him surrounded by rubber ducks. We speculate this is a response to a player's complaint on Reddit, potentially meaning players can now display more rubber ducks on Raider Den.

Overall, this ARC Raiders patch 1.3.0 update reflects the development team's commitment to gathering player feedback and continuously optimizing the game experience. By addressing balance issues, fixing bugs, and enhancing core elements, the game ensures fairness and playability for all players.

Whether you're a newcomer to the adventure or already exploring the latest map, ARC Raiders patch 1.3.0 will bring you a smoother and more enjoyable gaming experience. Join the thrilling adventure now and experience the optimized changes for yourself!

Genshin Impact's Luna Chapter is currently at Luna 2, and the storyline of characters from all over joining forces to fight Rerir is very exciting. Many players are probably already looking forward to the upcoming storyline and the new Nod-Krai map.

According to current information, Luna 3 only has new story content, not a new map, which may disappoint some players who enjoy exploring new maps.

However, according to leaks, Genshin Impact v6.3 will have many surprises waiting for you: new story content, new maps, and the annual Lantern Rite. Let's take a look.

New Characters

A leaker revealed that Impact v6.3 will feature three new characters: Columbina, Zibai, and Illuga. Currently, apart from Columbina, the other two have not yet officially appeared in the storyline. This is indeed very exciting.

Columbina

Columbina, formerly Fatui Harbingers Damselette and now Moon Maiden, is a familiar character, having appeared in the interlude PV Night Fool's Play several years ago. She officially debuted in the storyline A Dance of Snowy Tides and Hoarfrost Groves.

In version 6.3, she may be added to the limited-time Event Wishes as a playable character. As a Moon Goddess, Columbina is expected to be a Hydro user and a core character for Lunar reactions.

Regarding Columbina's role, it's anticipated to be similar to Furina's, providing a significant Lunar reaction damage boost while also possessing considerable output capability.

Nod-Krai's two existing Lunar reaction teams, Nefer Lunar-Bloom and Flins Lunar-Charged, both lack a five-star character with a wide-range constant Hydro application. Therefore, Columbina could very well fill this gap.

Additionally, following Genshin's usual pattern, Columbina may also need to unlock Constellation 2 to experience a significant power spike, so Travelers eager to enjoy Nod-Krai version should prepare their Genesis Crystals early.

Zibai

Information about Zibai and Illuga is currently limited. Both are expected to be Geo users and could potentially form a Lunar-Crystallize reaction team.

Zibai, also known as White Horse Adeptus, is a Liyue character. Lantern Rite event storyline this year is likely to revolve around him.

Liyue characters are generally well-developed, such as Xianyun in Impact 4.4 and Lan Yan in Impact 5.4. Therefore, this new five-star character is worth anticipating.

Illuga

Illuga, mentioned by Varka and Flins, is also a Lightkeeper. Current leaks suggest she is a four-star Polearm character who can provide some buffs to Lunar-Crystallize reaction.

However, since he's not a Liyue 4-star character, he cannot be obtained through Lantern Rete 4-Star selector.

These are the new characters who might appear in the limited-time Event Wishes in Luna 4. You can create a simple gacha plan based on your existing characters.

However, I strongly recommend that players who want to play Lunar Reaction pull for Columbina. Even at Constellation 0, her strength won't be low.

Players who want to play Lunar-Crystallize system or don't have a strong Geo character in their roster can pull for Zibai. Building a team specifically to adapt to the favorable Geo environment in Spiral Abyss is also a good option.

New Map

Currently, Nod-Krai has three islands open, but more than a version has passed, and most players have probably already explored them. Luna 3 also doesn't have a new map, which might bore many players.

However, according to leaks, Luna 4 will have a new map consisting of three islands. The eastern and southern islands are very close, while the northwestern island is more remote and likely requires some special access. It appears to be larger than the current Nod-Krai map.

The southern island is the largest and appears to have diverse terrain, including mountains, beaches, and even a mysterious meteorite crater. The other two islands are covered in greenery, especially the northwestern island, whose style differs significantly from the existing Nod-Krai islands.

It's currently uncertain whether this is a new area within Nod-Krai. Regardless, the opening of a new map means we can explore more areas, enjoy more scenery, and obtain more Primogems, which is something to look forward to.

Other Predicted Information

Besides new characters and events, some future information is also intriguing.

Regarding Lantern Rite, as in previous years, in addition to a free four-star Liyue character event, there will also be two new costumes.

The five-star character costume might be Neuvillette, priced at 1350 Genshin Impact Genesis Crystals during the event. The four-star character costume might be Chongyun, obtainable for free by completing the event.

Regarding other map areas, one is Liyue Blackcliff Forge, but there's no confirmed news in the short term. To be honest, I'm really curious about Blackcliff Forge's story; it's so mysterious.

Another is Mondstadt Dornman Port, which current leaks suggest might be a route to Snezhnaya. If so, perhaps we can unlock this area next year.

Genshin Impact v6.3 should be the most important part of the entire Impact's Luna Chapter. After the lull of Luna 2 and 3, Luna 4 will definitely have a wealth of content.

Columbina's model and story presentation make me particularly excited; I've already started saving Primogems for her. What about you? Are you as eager as I am to enter Genshin Impact v6.3?

In the third-person extraction shooter genre, ARC Raiders has quickly risen to prominence since its release, becoming a popular game. With its unique post-apocalyptic setting, tense and exciting looting gameplay, and thrilling battles against ARC robots and hostile raiders, the game has attracted over 700,000 players.

Based on recent feedback from the player community, the developers have released some new content and adjusted some criticized aspects of the game. This content aims to improve the player experience and attract more players.

To find out what new content and changes have been made, please read on.

Duo Matchmaking

Previously, players could choose to play solo or in teams, but this numerical imbalance made solo players worry about being overwhelmed by the powerful firepower of teams.

In addition to the threat from other players, players also faced the relentless pursuit of ARC robots. Undoubtedly, this numerical disparity directly affected the acquisition of ARC Raiders items and survival in extreme environments.

Especially for solo players, this situation, where danger lies both in front and behind, puts their strategy and skills to the test; otherwise, they may easily fail.

Therefore, many players have suggested that the developers optimize this mechanism to balance the game's development.

Recently, the developers announced that they have tested Duo prioritized matchmaking and will soon fully implement it in future games.

Duo Matchmaking mechanism uses a priority matchmaking system, matching duos and trios with other players in the same scenarios.

While this system cannot guarantee precise matchmaking for teams with varying numbers of players, it signifies ARC Raiders' efforts to balance the game mechanics and create a fairer environment for players.

This change not only allows players to enjoy teaming up with friends but also eliminates the frustration of an imbalanced team composition.

Store Cosmetic Prices

In response to player complaints about excessively high in-game item prices, the developers have adjusted the prices of some items in the store. This adjustment took effect on Thursday, November 13th at 10:30 AM CET.

To compensate players who already owned the discounted items, the official team will refund the price difference to their accounts in the form of Raider Tokens within one week. This approach both appeases players' emotions and ensures that no player suffers a significant loss because of the store price adjustment.

Raider Decks

Currently, all ARC Raiders players can receive a free Raider Decks, which contains ARC Raiders items that can be unlocked through game progression, providing valuable assistance to new players exploring the post-apocalyptic world.

In the future, the official team plans to release more free and paid Raider Decks.

Importantly, paid Raider Decks do not contain any pay-to-win ARC Raiders items. Instead, they will focus on cosmetic items used to customize players' raiders and provide convenient functions.

This approach ensures game balance, allowing players to focus more on developing winning skills and strategies rather than spending real money.

Overall, these adjustments and changes to ARC Raiders game are essentially based on player feedback. This approach of continuously improving the game and actively listening to player feedback not only enhances the engagement of existing players but also attracts more new players, earning ARC Raiders widespread recognition from players and the public.

So, jump into ARC Raiders now and experience the thrill of shooting games and the joy of adventuring with your companions in this war-torn world!

Path of Exile Keepers of the Flame is now live, and some players may still be exploring it, looking for the best build for this season. I’d like to recommend a very easy-to-use build to help you quickly clear enemies and level up.

This build is called Explosive Arrow Champion, and it gives you a very high - damage tank. It has a low upgrade cost and doesn’t require high skill, making it easy for both new and returning players to pick up.

After completing the build, you’ll find your tankiness is very high, greatly enhancing the comfort of clearing enemies daily.

While this build does have some minor drawbacks, such as a lack of flexibility and damage not being immediately effective, these can be mitigated by pairing it with suitable jewelry and choosing gear with appropriate affixes. Below, I’ll introduce the specific pairings for this build.

Core Build Considerations

First, we need to understand the output mechanism of Explosive Arrow Champion build in POE 3.27. In combat, you need to place totems on enemies and then fire enough fire arrows to ignite more fuses, causing them to explode and creating the burn effect.

Therefore, our build should focus on increasing attack speed and health. Additionally, since totem damage is attribute - dependent, we also need to improve our Fire, Burning, and Elemental damage attributes.

Key Passive Skills And Ascendancy

In POE Keepers of the Flame, if you want to steadily improve the damage and survivability of your Explosive Arrow Champion build, you need to pay attention to certain Passive Skills and Ascendancy.

Among Passive Skills, Ancestral Bond, Watchtowers, and Surveillance - activating these will help you apply additional totems to enemies and increase totem damage. However, it’s important to ensure that accuracy doesn’t fall below your health, as this will increase the accuracy of totems hitting enemies.

In Ascendancy Passive Skill tree, Fortitude, Worthy Foe, and First to Strike, Last to Fall are essential to unlock, as they provide damage boosts for you and your allies. Their Intimidate effect, unique to Full Life enemies, also enhances your survivability.

Gem Recommendations: High Health & High Damage

Since players have different build priorities, I will recommend two approaches to allow you to freely choose between a build focused on higher health or higher damage.

Higher Health

Because Explosive Arrow Champion cannot instantly kill enemies, you must first ensure sufficient health to withstand enemy attacks. I recommend equipping Lifetap Support in all slots except Helmet, Vaal Molten Shell and Cast When Damage Taken Support in Feet slot, and Second Wind Support in other slots to prevent sudden death.

Higher Damage

After ensuring sufficient survivability, you can focus on increasing the damage of Explosive Arrow. You should choose gems related to Burning as much as possible.

For example, equip Ballista Totem Support, Explosive Arrow, and Combustion on Bow slot; Flammability and Flame Surge on Gloves slot; and Flame Dash on Feet slot. Corrupting Fever can also be equipped if available.

Ballista Totem Support is particularly important, as it allows you to fire many arrows quickly, igniting fuse. Additionally, you can increase Attack Speed ​​with Jewels such as Viridian.

You can also equip Ignite Proliferation Support, which expands Burning area. This allows you to move freely through enemy lines, distributing totems, firing arrows to ignite fuses, and triggering explosions, creating widespread Burning. This will greatly facilitate clearing enemies and gaining POE Currency.

New players should note that prioritizing survival is recommended. If you lack the aforementioned Jewels, you can obtain Lifetap Support by completing quests or by exchanging them at Nessa.

Elemental Damage with Attacks Support and Frenzy, which increase damage, can also be obtained through quests and exchanged at Yeena.

Gear Setup Recommendations

Besides the health bonus from Skill Gems, you should prioritize Helmet, Body Armor, Rings, and Boots with affixes like Maximum Life, Armor, and Evasion Rating.

Combined with Belt pieces that convert damage dealt to Chilled enemies into health, and Body Armor, Gloves, and Boots pieces with affixes that increase the chance of spell damage suppression, you can maintain a relatively healthy health level during combat.

Then, choose Amulets and Weapons with affixes that increase Gems Level to maximize the damage boost from Gems.

Finally, you can choose affixes to further enhance the damage of Explosive Arrow Champion build. For example, choose Quiver pieces with affixes that increase Damage Over Time multiplier for attack skills, and Belt pieces with affixes that increase attack speed when inflicting Ignites.

Of course, adding affixes that increase movement speed is also a good choice, allowing you to mark enemies with totems more efficiently.

Please note that you should maximize your chance to Ignite, ideally reaching 100%, to ensure maximum damage output.

In the early stages of POE 3.27, you can build according to the above suggestions. Later, if you wish to continue using this build, I recommend pairing it with Dyadian Dawn Heavy Belt and a bow that increases attack speed to further enhance damage; Short Grove or Grove Bow are both good options.

This build offers high health and damage, and its combat health regeneration is also quite good. For added stability, you can carry powerful potions like Granite Flask, Quicksilver Flask, allowing you to face even more challenging tasks.

Explosive Arrow Champion build may not be the most powerful in POE Keepers of the Flame, but I guarantee it’s a great choice for both new players leveling up early and experienced players clearing enemies.

With the official launch of Genshin Impact version 6.1 and the debut of the new character Nefer, players' attention has gradually turned to the future Version 6.2.

The developers have recently started testing the new version. According to community feedback and some news, there will be a four-star bow in version 6.2 that can be obtained for free through activities, which is particularly eye-catching.

The attributes and skill effects of this weapon may bring new equipment configuration ideas and combat improvements to some characters.

Weapon Stats Detailed

According to leaked information, this four-star bow, whose name has not yet been announced, will provide 510 basic attack damage at the maximum level 90, and its secondary attribute is a high 46% elemental energy efficiency. This numerical configuration is eye-catching, and it finds a unique balance among various weapons.

Its special skill effect is even more noticeable. When the character equipped with this weapon is in the background and the character on the field attacks and hits the enemy, it will trigger an attack power increase effect that lasts for 8 seconds. The increase is 28% at the initial refinement level and can be increased to 56% when refined to the fifth level.

This design concept is significantly different from previous weapons. It precisely targets those characters that have background output capabilities and rely on elemental bursts.

For me, the appearance of this weapon is a sign that the developers are paying more attention to role-specific positioning in weapon design. It is not just a stacking of stats, but also the encouragement and support of a specific play style.

Character Compatibility Analysis

In Genshin Impact, limited weapons obtained for free through large-scale events have always been the focus of players' collection due to their uniqueness and irreplaceability.

The bow revealed in this 6.2 version have high attack power bonus and charging efficiency, which is an ideal choice for characters who rely partly on attack attributes and elemental bursts.

Ororon

For characters like Ororon who rely on attack power as their main means and on elemental burst cycles, this weapon can not only effectively increase their damage, but also optimize the frequency of their ultimate skills through the charging secondary attribute, achieving dual gains in output and cycle.

In particular, the 56% attack power bonus in Refinement 5 state is close to the level of some five-star weapons, which is quite rare for free weapons.

Fischl

In addition to Ororon, the damage-dealing Fischl is also a potential beneficiary of this weapon. Although she already has a variety of weapon options, this new bow still provides her with unique value.

Especially when C6 is rumored to be enhanced, Fischl's background output ability will be further improved. At this time, paired with this weapon that can provide a high attack power bonus, her Oz will cause more considerable damage.

Therefore, players can obtain Primogems through Genshin Impact Top Up to extract a higher constellation for this character, and combine it with this four-star bow weapon to maximize the attack power.

Venti

What's more noteworthy is that this weapon may become the key to Venti's transformation. According to leaked information, Venti will be enhanced in future versions, making it more inclined to damage positioning.

If this news is true, then this weapon that takes into account both charging and attacking can just meet the needs of Venti after the transformation. Sufficient charging ensures the cycle of the ultimate move, and the high attack power will increase Anemo's DMG.

Other Potential Beneficiaries

• Yelan: While health-boosting weapons are more suitable for her, the recharge efficiency and attack damage bonuses of this weapon can also be helpful when she lacks suitable options.
• Kujou Sara: As an attack support, she can also benefit from this weapon's stats.
• Collei: In a Grass-reactive team, the higher attack damage and recharge efficiency often play a significant role.

However, you should be reminded that weapon attributes, skill effects and even character adjustments may change before the official release, so players are advised to refer to the official announcement and continue to pay attention to it.

Overall, this free bow, arriving in version 6.2, is more than just a new piece of equipment; it signals the evolution of the game's combat system. It precisely addresses gaps in the current build system and offers new development possibilities for multiple characters.

For players who love to research team build and pursue optimal solutions, this weapon undoubtedly provides new research topics and build ideas. Even for casual players, it's an excellent weapon that can significantly enhance their team's strength.

WoW MoP Classic Phase 2 officially launched on September 23rd. This update adds many new mechanics and content, enriching the player experience.

In Phase 2, Scarlet Monastery Challenge Mode not only expands the quest content but also offers players more diverse rewards, attracting a wide range of players.

Below is a detailed guide to the overall Scarlet Monastery Challenge Mode process and the rewards available.

Preparation

Scarlet Monastery is located deep within Tirisfal Glades. It is the first entrance on the left, located within the massive Scarlet Monastery building.

If you're a Horde player, you can enter from Brill, Bulwark, or even from Undercity.

If you're an Alliance player, you'll need to enter from Andorhal in Western Plaguelands.

Because Boss's abilities in this challenge mode can significantly affect the team, We recommend Shaman healers because they can use Wind Shear to interrupt the release of the boss's skills.

This challenge mode also focuses primarily on single-player combat, especially Boss fights, which take up most of the time. Therefore, the team needs high single-player DPS. Therefore, we recommend Death Knight, Beast Mastery Hunter, and Monk.

Rogues offer AoE Stealth ability, allowing for large-scale monster farming, and Shroud of Concealment skill allows the team to temporarily become invisible, avoiding damage for 15 seconds.

When players begin Scarlet Monastery Challenge Mode, a timer will begin counting down to a 13-minute prime time. Players must choose a suitable route within the allotted time, kill 40 enemies, and defeat the three Bosses: Thalnos the Soulrender, Brother Korloff, and High Inquisitor Whitemane.

Challenge Begins

Now, the team chooses a route to begin the challenge. A 13-minute countdown begins.

Thalnos The Soulrender

Upon starting the quest, we'll first encounter a challenge set by Thalnos the Soulrender. He lurks at the back of the graveyard, surrounded by a group of ghostly monsters and a pile of bones.

Thalnos the Soulrender's abilities include Raise Fallen Crusader, Mind Rot, Evict Soul, Evicted Soul, and Summon Empowering Spirit.

• Raise Fallen Crusader: He summons a Fallen Crusader every second for 5 seconds.
• Mind Rot: Crusader melee attacks can inflict Mind Rot on players. This skill inflicts Shadow damage every two seconds, with stacking effects for increased damage.
• Evict Soul: This skill extracts the soul from a random player, dealing moderate Shadow damage every three seconds. The player whose soul has been extracted will first attack the nearest teammate.
• Summon Empowering Spirit: These spirits will first move toward the nearest Fallen Crusader. Upon contact, they will create an Empowered Zombie.

BOSS will constantly summon Crusaders to attack players. Since these monsters will remain where they are after being attacked and fallen, players must eliminate them in time to prevent their remains from causing more serious consequences.

Farming monsters can yield a large amount of WoW MoP Classic Gold.

When Thalnos the Soulrender uses Evict Soul, Death Knight must use Control Undead to block the ability and prevent allies from being disabled. Because Empowered Zombies are larger and more powerful, they must be eliminated quickly upon appearance.

Players should focus their attacks on Boss to defeat it, saving time and hurrying on to the second Boss.

Brother Korloff

Brother Korloff's abilities include Blazing Fists, Firestorm Kick, Rising Flame, and Scorched Earth.

Blazing Fists: Korloff unleashes a flurry of fiery blows in a cone-shaped area in front of him every second for 6 seconds. Avoid standing in front of Boss during this flurry of fiery blows, as this will inflict significant damage.

• Rising Flame: This Boss's attacks become more powerful with each 10% health loss, and the fire damage becomes even more severe as the fight progresses.
• Firestorm Kick: It charges towards the farthest player, unleashing fire damage around it. This Boss is large and possesses powerful attacks.
• Scorched Earth: When Korloff's health reaches 50%, it creates a large fire trail every second in each area it moves.

The team can assign one player to lure Korloff out, while ranged players focus their attacks on him. When it hides between melee players, it's important to quickly pull it out. This prevents it from summoning helpers while allowing ranged players to continuously attack it.

Tank players should keep Boss near fountains or walls, avoiding other team members. When the fire trail it creates reaches 50%, ensure Korloff moves between two points. This prevents the fire from affecting other areas, keeping the fight clean and efficient.

After its health reaches 30%, attacking it becomes more difficult, requiring focused fire. Shamans should pay attention to their teammates and provide timely healing. Ranged players should constantly dodge and focus their attacks when hit by Firestorm Kick.

High Inquisitor Whitemane & Commander Durand

After defeating the second Boss, players will face the third Boss. This involves a two-stage fight against High Inquisitor Whitemane and its Commander Durand.

The first stage involves a battle against Commander Durand, whose abilities include Flash of Steel and Dashing Strike.

• Flash of Steel: He dashes towards players around the room, dealing physical damage.
• Dashing Strike: He dashes towards players, attacking anything in his path.

When his health reaches 50%, High Inquisitor Whitemane will personally join the fight and put everyone to sleep for 10 seconds. Durand moves quickly, so players must coordinate to prevent him from charging. The faster you kill him, the safer you'll be when Boss joins the fight.

High Inquisitor Whitemane's abilities include Power Word - Shield, Holy Smite, Mass Resurrection, and Dominate Mind.

• Power Word - Shield: This ability grants an ally a shield that can be used to block damage.
• Holy Smite: High Inquisitor Whitemane attacks his current target with holy magic.
• Mass Resurrection: This ability can be used to revive all downed Scarlet troops in the room.
• Dominate Mind: This ability can be used to control a player for 30 seconds.

A Death Knight or Shaman must prevent Whitemane from casting Mass Resurrection, otherwise a flood of enemies will flood the room, hindering progress and leading to failure.

In addition, Shamans must use Wind Shear skill to interrupt the third Boss's Dominate Mind cast, otherwise players will lose control and attack their allies. This is especially true for Shaman Healers, as being controlled can easily lead to a team wipe.

After Whitemane resurrects Durand, Shamans immediately use Bloodlust, increasing the attack damage and attack speed of all damage players and restricting the abilities of the targeted enemy. Players must attack Whitemane and his allies simultaneously to share the damage.

After defeating all three Bosses and completing the challenge within the 13-minute prime time, players will receive WoW MoP Classic Gold and Path of the Scarlet Mitre.

That concludes Scarlet Monastery Challenge Mode in WoW MoP Classic phase 2, along with the rewards players can earn by completing the quest. We wish you a wonderful gaming experience!

This week, we welcomed Path of Exile 2 patch 0.3.1, which introduces significant changes compared to previous versions. First, you no longer have to search for towers on the map. Towers now only clear the fog of war from the map and provide additional tablets upon completion.

This inevitably brings changes to the gameplay landscape. With the new farming methods, the most efficient ways to farm maps and the locations where you can earn more rewards have also changed. This means that previously easy farming activities may now become more difficult.

After testing and gathering player feedback, I've summarized some of my experiences. In this post, I'll share my experiences and recommendations regarding Precursor Tablets, Waystones, and Endgame.

Precursor Tablets

First, I'll discuss the changes to Precursor Tablets, as they are the most important and attract the most attention from players.

Previously, Precursor Tablets increased the difficulty and rewards of maps around certain towers, so they were only usable on towers. In PoE 20.3.1, this feature has been removed. Tablets can now be used on all maps.

It's important to note that tablets are now significantly different from before. They now have a 10-use limit, and once they are used up, they are destroyed. You can't use them on a map you've already failed, and you can only use one tablet per map.

If your Waystones have additional modifiers, you can open more tablet slots, but the maximum is three. What impact will this change have?

Rarity, quantity, and rare monsters are the most important factors for most players, as they are closely related to the quality and quantity of dropped items.

From the modifiers in PoE 2 0.3.1 patch data, you can see the following:

• Brimming modifier's effect on rare monsters was previously 10-15, but after the update, it has increased to 15-40.
• Collector's modifier's effect on rarity was previously 7-10, but is now 10-30.
• Plundering modifier's effect on quantity was previously 3-7, but is now 4-10.

Using rarity as an example, previously, if you had three towers and nine tables, each providing a 10% rarity boost, you'd get a 90% boost. However, this only applied to one map node.

Now, you have three buff tables. Each table provides a 30% boost, giving you a 90% boost. This means that the rarity of items on our Precursors' tables will increase, reducing the amount of map you need to farm.

As a result, after the update, the value of the items you receive will be higher than before. Therefore, when setting up your map, I recommend loading Waystones from Map Device first, then selecting the buff tables that increase rarity. This will increase the value of your loot and PoE 2 Currency.

Best Waystones

For Waystones, I think you need to invest as much Juice as possible, as the more you invest, the greater the reward.

In Path of Exile 2 0.3.1, the risk-reward ratio for Waystones has been increased. This means the more Juice you invest, the more items you'll receive, and the more useful items you'll receive.

However, please note that if your current skill level isn't very high, your build isn't very strong, and you don't have good clearing skills on a level 15 map, I recommend not overusing your map, as the chances of failure are high, and if you fail, you won't be able to use Tablets on that map.

Therefore, I recommend farming within your skill level, as this will maximize your loot. Therefore, I don't recommend using Waystones to gain quantity, as this will require a higher skill level.

If your equipment is already rare enough, you may not need to add buffs to Waystones. However, if you insist on adding them, that's fine. It will just increase the difficulty of the map.

So what if your map isn't high quality? The simplest solution is to trade it in for a more valuable map. However, this will cost you a significant amount of POE 2 Exalted Orbs.

Alternatively, you can upgrade your map yourself by enabling additional modifiers. Using Chaotic Rarity, you can upgrade the modifiers in the affected area, replacing them with modifiers that increase item rarity, thereby increasing the potential of your loot.

Also, Preserve Vertebrae can be used. It adds Desecrated modifier to rare Waystones, increasing the number of rare monsters.

Another item you should be aware of is Diluted Liquid Ire, which acts as a Liquid Emotion and can be used to modifier Waystones. This increases Magic Monsters by 20%, thereby increasing the drop rate of rare monsters.

Endgame Content

As mentioned above, a tower requires three Tables slots. However, if you add a Tablet with a special effect, you'll lose one slot. This reduces the benefits of using special Tablets.

It's no secret that the best way to farm Ritual is to use Ritual Unique Tablet.

However, this will reduce the item drop rate in the map you're viewing, negating all the tablet's benefits. This is more cost-effective than using it, so we don't recommend it.

The same applies to Expeditions. If you want to increase the fun of your Expedition exploration, you'll sacrifice loot in other parts of the map.

Another option is Delirium. Using Delirium on Waystones forces you to pass through a mirror, which will cause you to lose all Delirium buffs and approximately 30% of your extra rare monsters.

So, I think the best Endgame is Breach. Not just because of the unique tablet, but also because of the Irradiator Tablet. You can use it when you're strong enough. When used, it raises the map's level by one, increasing the difficulty but giving you greater rewards.

Another advantage is running two Irradiated Breaches. Now all items on the map are dropping, allowing you to quickly farm the map and get a lot of loot.

These are some of my experiences and suggestions from playing Path of Exile 2 patch 0.3.1. I hope you find them useful. If you have other ideas, please share them.

Monopoly Go will launch a new event called Sticker Treasures on October 12th at 4 PM ET. It will last for three days and end at 1 PM ET on October 15th.

Let's take a look at how to play Sticker Treasures event and what rewards you can get.

How To Play?

Sticker Treasures will feature 20 levels for you to challenge and uncover hidden treasures. Each challenge begins with a grid, and players must use Pickaxes to clear the grid and uncover hidden items to advance to the next level.

Players should be aware of the approximate number of Pickaxes required for each level.

Not every area on the grid needs to be cleared, so plan your Pickaxe usage wisely. This will help you maximize the hidden treasures while minimizing the number of Pickaxes used.

As the level of challenges increases, the number of Pickaxes required increases. Therefore, it's important to reserve enough Pickaxes early on for higher-level levels.

As we've seen above, Pickaxes play a crucial role in Sticker Treasures excavation event, so it's crucial to have a sufficient number of them prepared.

The primary source of Pickaxes is through completing objectives and earning milestone rewards in major tournaments and events. There are other ways to earn Pickaxes, but the number of Pickaxes earned is smaller, so it's not recommended to rely on them as a primary source.

After completing all levels, if you have any extra Pickaxes, you can exchange them for dice at a specific rate.

Milestone Rewards

Players who complete certain milestones in Sticker Treasures event will receive a wealth of rewards.

This event offers rewards beyond the usual free dice rolls and cash. Players also can receive Wild Stickers, 5-star sticker packs, or Swap Packs during certain levels. Players can collect Monopoly Go Stickers from these sticker packs.

Different levels have different board sizes, and the rewards are also different. Details are provided below.

Level 1 has a 4x4 grid, and the reward is a one-star green pack.

Level 2 has a 5x4 grid, and the reward is a two-star yellow sticker pack.

Level 3 has a 6x4 grid, and the reward is 4-12 Pickaxes and cash.

Level 4 has a 7x5 grid, and the reward is 8-16 Pickaxes and cash.

Level 5 has a 5x5 grid, and the reward is 100 free dice rolls.

Level 6 has a 5x5 grid, and the reward is a two-star yellow sticker pack.

Level 7 has a 6x6 grid, and the reward is 10-20 Pickaxes and cash.

Level 8 has a 7x7 grid, and the reward is a four-star blue sticker pack.

Level 14 has a 5x6 grid size and rewards a three-star pink sticker pack.

Level 15 has a 6x7 grid size and rewards a three-star pink sticker pack and a two-star yellow sticker pack.

Level 16 has a 7x7 grid size and rewards a Swap Pack.

Level 17 has a 7x7 grid size and rewards 800 free dice rolls.

Level 18 has a 7x7 grid size and rewards a four-star blue sticker pack.

Level 19 has a 7x7 grid size and rewards cash.

Level 20 has a 7x7 grid size and rewards a Wild Sticker.

This concludes the gameplay and rewards for Monopoly Go's new Sticker Treasures event. The event is launching soon, and we hope you enjoy the game.

Since Path of Exile 2's launch, its rich world and diverse gameplay have fascinated players. Many have developed diverse builds, leaving a lasting mark on PoE 2 exploration journey.

Today, I'll share with you the Lightning Crossbow Deadeye build. This build abandons traditional gameplay and focuses on Explosive Shot clearing, paired with Last Lament and Compose Requiem for high DPS damage.

It maintains the exhilarating experience of large-scale monster clearing while delivering top-tier boss damage, offering a new direction for the crossbowman class. Below, I'll explain how to build it.

1. Gear Combination

Weapon Selection

The core strength of Lightning Crossbow Deadeye build lies in the strategic pairing of its dual-weapon set, achieving both efficient clearing and effective boss damage.

For the first weapon set, choose Crossbows. Prioritize lightning damage, aiming for T1 and T2 lightning damage bonuses. T3 can be a good transition.

Secondly, stack attack speed bonuses, T2 and T3 levels will suffice. Add practical stats like increased physical damage percentage, increased skill levels, and a chance to trigger Onslaught on kills.

Even with non-core affixes like bonus damage to enemies within 2 meters, Crossbows still guarantee excellent monster clearing efficiency. For ultimate damage output, you can replace them with high percentage damage stats through Refining.

For the second weapon set, bundle Last Lament Desolate Crossbow. The core of this weapon is Compose Requiem. It's important to note that it has no negative effects like Sacrifice; it's chosen purely for its exceptionally high damage bonus against bosses.

For Last Lament Desolate Crossbow, prioritize maximum physical damage and attack speed, then add bonus elemental damage to trigger Trinity Resonance.

If paired with a level 19 or 20 Compose Requiem, the damage boost will be even more significant. This increased damage also increases the speed at which enemies are defeated, significantly increasing the amount of Path of Exile 2 Currency dropped from enemies. You can use this to upgrade various equipment or purchase items.

Wearable Items

Crossbow Deadeye is built around Trinity while also emphasizing survivability, so other wearable items will contribute significantly to its success. The following are the items you should consider.

• Helmet: Choose Constricting Command Viper Cap. The key is to keep the number of enemies on the battlefield at five or fewer to continuously trigger the helmet's damage bonus. This is the best choice for melee combat and builds like ours that prioritize close-range damage.
• Gloves: Evasion and hybrid Energy Shield are recommended, though full Evasion and full Energy Shield are also acceptable. For a Trinity build, prioritize stacking fire, cold, and lighting elemental damage bonuses and attack speed. Balanced increases to all three elements maximize damage output.
• Shoes: Choose pure energy shield boots, easily stacking up to 1000 energy shield points. Also prioritize movement speed and resistance, ensuring resistance reaches its maximum, balancing survivability and mobility.
• Jewelry: Choose a Gold Amulet for your amulet. Any basic amulet will work, depending on your stat requirements, focusing on energy shield, evasion, and global defense.
• Anointed: Choose Stormcharged. Leverage your continuously triggered critical hits to significantly increase critical hit rate and critical hit damage, compensating for the crossbow's inherently low critical hit rate.
• Rings: Build around a Trinity build, prioritizing rings with fire, cold, and lighting elemental damage bonuses. A Breach Ring is ideal, as it further increases your stat threshold.
• Belt: The Ingenuity Utility Belt is the preferred choice, as it amplifies the base damage and stat bonuses from the ring. If your budget allows, Headhunter Heavy Belt is a better option, boosting both monster clearing speed and movement speed. Choose your preferred option based on your specific situation.
• Body Armor: A hybrid of Energy Shield and Evasion Armor focuses on increasing mental resistance and block rate, ensuring both damage output and sufficient survivability.

Also, focus on intelligence and deck strength for attribute thresholds, ensuring they meet the minimum requirements for your class. This is the foundation for all equipment and skills to be effective.

2. Skills & Gems

Core Skill Build

• Compose Requiem: Combine Concentrated Area, Overextend, and Rapid Attacks to achieve critical strike rate bonuses and area damage.
• Explosive Shot: Place Nova Projectiles in the auxiliary gem slot to launch additional skills in a circular area, detonating all bombs within the radius at once.
• Voltaic Mark: This skill increases our electric damage to approximately 98%. Plasma Blast serves as our primary electric shock, quickly shocking enemies.
• Elemental Weakness: Prioritize leveling this skill. Use Heightened Curse to enhance the curse and further amplify its power.
• Auras: Choose Trinity to trigger resonance by balancing the three elemental damage values, boosting elemental damage.

Gems Selection

When choosing gems, first use Herald of Thunder at its highest level, utilizing Trinity to increase damage. Next, choose Elemental Armament to increase the elemental damage of your skills. Then, choose Wind Dancer, which increases your dodge rate. Finally, choose Ghost Dance, which greatly improves your survivability.

While these skill gems aren't top-tier, they're still very helpful. They may be optimized in the upcoming Path of Exile 2 patch 0.3.1, so we look forward to seeing even better results.

3. Passive Skill Tree

The core of the talent tree revolves around Crossbow Deadeye builds. The specific nodes to select are as follows:

First, select Point Blank in the weapon skill tree, which increases close-range damage by 20%. Then, select Endless Munitions to increase the number of extra bullets. Gathering Winds increases dodge, skill speed, and movement speed. These can improve mobility and survivability while exploring the map.

Second, in the main talent tree, select Honed Instincts to increase attack speed. Then, select Cooked to increase your critical damage. Finally, select Stand and Deliver to increase damage.

Through continued exploration by the community, we've found that while this build is already powerful, there's still room for improvement in areas like optimizing Fire Resonance and filling skill slots. We believe that Path of Exile 2 patch 0.3.1 will feature more detailed adjustments and gameplay expansions, injecting new vitality into your adventure!

When it comes to New World, the chaotic 2021 launch remains vivid in our minds. Endless queues, endless bugs, and the abrupt transition from a PvP Sandbox to a Theme Park in less than two years left Amazon's highly anticipated MMO mired in critical woes.

Faced with such difficulties, most studios might have given up and let the game die, but Amazon Games took the opposite approach, using slow but steady quarterly updates to reshape the content and add new systems. Season 10, Nighthaven, launching on October 13th, is a shining testament to this perseverance.

Nighthaven New Raid

The arrival of Nighthaven opens up a new dark, gothic genre for New World: Aeternum. In this isolated new zone, you'll find a mist-shrouded haunted forest, a gloomy castle perched on a cliffside, and even the enemies are eerie fusions of human and beast—combining the ferocity of wild beasts with the cunning of humans, making every encounter visually striking.

The quest to find Tear of Gaea not only continues the storyline of Morgaine from Elysium Wilds, but also opens up new possibilities, inviting new players to revisit the story while deepening the world's richness.

More importantly, it directly addresses players' pain points and reshapes the end-game experience.

Catacombs is a new game mode that allows up to three players to explore the depths of a generated dungeon, fighting and defeating bosses to earn rewards. While the initial difficulty is moderate, the bosses gradually increase in strength with each defeat, forcing players to choose between continuing the adventure to earn more rewards like equipment and New World Coins or retreating to safety. This strategically challenging environment and the three-person team format enhance teamwork and avoid the awkwardness of winning easily or having a team that's effectively ineffective.

The length and format of Isle of Night 10-player group ride are reminiscent of Hive of Gorgons experience, featuring three new bosses and enemy types, along with simple puzzles and scenario encounters. Winning Isle of Night 10-player group ride requires teamwork and coordinated effort.

This high-difficulty collaborative design fills a gap in high-end PvE content, providing a new goal for challenge-seeking players. However, it also requires players to invest sufficient New World Coins to upgrade their equipment.

Nighthaven Gear And Character Upgrades

The revamped gear and character upgrade systems further enhance Nighthaven. Raising the level cap to 70 and the gear score to 800 are just the basics, the introduction of perk charms is the crowning achievement.

Perk charms allow players to customize their gear with up to four slots corresponding to attack, defense, and skills, allowing them to freely customize their gear.

Paired with charms crafted from rare drops, players can even more precisely craft their own gear. The inclusion of set bonuses is also ingenious. They can be unlocked through raids, catacombs, and PvP tracks, and different wear combinations can trigger diverse buffs.

The new Umbral system replaces the old design with a more streamlined currency model, allowing players to spend fewer New World: Aeternum Coins while acquiring more suitable gear, making equipment upgrades more streamlined and rational. The natural integration of equipment attributes into upgrades solves the issue of traditional perk bonuses lacking in meaning.

Nighthaven adopts the sandpark model proposed by its new studio head, significantly enhancing replayability through customization, procedural dungeons, and FFA PvP areas. Clearly, the studio is planning to release new content that encourages regular replay, thus avoiding the rapid decline of traditional theme park MMOs.

New World: Aeternum not only boasts a complex and replayable gameplay loop but also addresses the core needs of modern MMO players: rather than resetting player progress with each new season, it offers more significant progression goals and preserves the value of progress through upgradeable equipment. This unique combat approach, coupled with an economic model that eliminates the need for additional New World Coins, gives it a significant advantage in MMO market.

With the subsequent release of impactful content such as Tower Claim and Siege System with Building and Territory System Overhaul, New World: Aeternum will continue to gain popularity among players in MMO market.

In Borderlands 4, besides completing the main mining quest, side quests are also crucial, offering numerous rewards.

For example, after completing the main quest, Shadow of the Mountain, and unlocking Belton's Bore as a primary faction town, you'll unlock The Importance of Being Furnished.

Wrenchless Allen is a man who values ​​artistic creation. He runs a humble art stall in the game. If you meet him in the game, he may invite you to join his artistic journey, but he no longer remembers where the chair instruction manual is. Your task is to help him find it, but beware of attacks from his art critics along the way.

How To Craft Wrenchless Allen's Chair?

Wrenchless Allen is located in a small stall on the right side of the second-floor room. Approach him and speak to him to accept this quest.

First, he instructs you to search the trash cans located on the same floor as the vending machines. You'll need to follow his instructions and search the trash cans along the staircase. However, the side quest cannot be so easy, so there must be nothing in the trash can.

He then instructs you to check the washing machines, located directly below and across from the trash cans. After searching six washing machines, you'll still find nothing. Wrenchless Allen finally gives you crucial information: go to the grill.

Next, follow the path out of Belton's Bore and onto the section between the two bridges. Look for the grill in the rest area and find the clue inside. After talking to Wrenchless Allen on the phone, you will be attacked by a group of art critics led by Ripper. They are very dissatisfied with Wrenchless Allen, and you need to defeat them.

After completing the above requirements, return to Belton's Bore and find the chair fragments Wrenchless Allen needs. The chair fragments are scattered across the following five locations in town:

1. On the wall near the bridge at the town entrance;
2. On the crate next to Belton's Bore Active Checkpoint;
3. On the floor above the doorway to the circular alcove on the left side of the room;
4. On the upper floor on the left side of the room, above the trash can;
5. On the two blue barrels outside Belton's Bore entrance.

Once you have collected all the chair fragments, bring them back to Wrenchless Allen's stall and assemble them. You will then have two choices: sell the chair to Wrenchless Allen or destroy it.

End-Of-Mission Rewards

While you are making this choice, Wrenchless Allen may be temporarily marked as an enemy, but you cannot harm or attack him; your only target is the chair.

However, no matter which method you choose, this side quest is successfully completed, and both options will give you basic rewards in the end, including some Borderlands 4 money and items.The only difference is that if you choose to sell the chair to Wrenchless Allen, you'll receive an additional cash reward: EXP, 1,000 Cash, and some Eridium. This is his way of paying you back for your hard work.

At this point, the side quest has been successfully completed. I believe that you, as a smart person, have quickly grasped the key points. So don't hesitate, open the game quickly, complete the quest and get the rewards.
