In the process of playing Monopoly Go, collecting Stickers is undoubtedly one of the most attractive ways to play. Because in fact, collecting Stickers is not a monotonous collection work, but requires players to complete various achievements while playing the game by rolling Dice.

As one of the main collectibles of this classic board game, Monopoly Go Stickers cannot be obtained through in-game currency. You must participate in activities in the game or complete some fun challenges before you can collect them.

How To Collect More Stickers?

However, some activities cannot be participated in when you first enter the game. You need to complete a few games before you can start.

Because the number of Cards collected is closely related to the completion of each challenge, there are many fun activities in the game that dazzle players. Some of them are even completed within a time limit.

This means that if players want to achieve as many achievements as possible to collect more Stickers, they need to spend extra time to collect the specific information of those activities. Obviously, this makes collecting related Stickers more troublesome.

Therefore, in order to facilitate you to collect more and faster Stickers, we will introduce you to the relevant mechanisms of the activities in the game that can help you win Stickers.

1. Monopoly Go Sticker Boom

Among various activities to obtain Stickers, Monopoly Go Sticker Boom is worth mentioning. This activity is carried out frequently, but each activity lasts only ten minutes, which is very short. If you want to get extra Stickers as a reward through it, you need to pay attention to its relevant information.

2. A Series Of Long-term Activities Taking Monopoly Origins As An Example

In addition to the Monopoly Go Sticker Boom mentioned above, Monopoly Go also has some longer-lasting activities, such as Monopoly Origins. This activity lasts for a total of 72 hours. During the activity, you have the opportunity to win up to 15,225 Dice Rolls. This also means that you have the opportunity to get more Stickers!

If you’re interested in them but are afraid of missing them like you missed Monopoly Go Sticker Boom, their reassuring duration is undoubtedly one of the reasons why they have a unique appeal.

3. Tournaments

Like many activities in Monopoly Go, Tournaments are also time-limited. During the event, you need to compete with others to earn limited-time currency and corresponding prizes. This includes some related special Stickers.

The currency in different Tournaments is also different. So before participating in the event, please pay attention to the specific event icon in the game to ensure that you don’t miss the Tournaments you want to participate in.

4. Daily Treats

Daily Treats are rewards that are obtained by logging into the game every day. And the more days you log in, the more rewards you can get.

5. Quick Wins

After completing a certain number of Daily Treats, you can get weekly rewards on this basis. In the process, you will also reach different Milestones and get corresponding rewards. Click “Wins” in the lower left corner of the screen in the game to check the relevant progress.

6. Milestone

This event is also a limited-time event. Different Milestone Events also represent various goals in the game. After you achieve these goals, you will receive corresponding rich gifts and related Stickers.

7. Free Parking

Free Parking is very interesting. It is online every few days in the game, and the specific time of appearance is random. The main activity mechanism is: as you walk around the board, you will start to accumulate free Dice Rolls. When you stop at Free Parking tile next time, you can get all the accumulated free Dice Rolls, as well as rich Cash!

8. Partners Event

Partners Event is one of the biggest social events in Monopoly Go. In this event, you can choose your friends in the game as Partners, and then build buildings on your own board to get corresponding rewards. At the same time, you may also get some special Stickers in this event.

When you reach the fifth board in the game, you can participate in Partners Event. If you want to build or upgrade attractions, you need to spin Wheel to get points. The premise for Wheel to spin is to collect event tokens that can be used as currency.

It is worth noting that in Partners Event, once you establish a partnership with a friend, you cannot change Partners. So be sure to think carefully when choosing Partners.

Colorful Sticker Albums

Sticker Albums are a virtual collection of Stickers in Monopoly Go. Each Sticker Albums has different Sticker Sets, and each Set contains nine Stickers. To enrich the collection of Sticker Albums, you need to collect as many Stickers in each Set as possible before the corresponding Albums timer ends.

Obviously, the more activities you complete in the game, the more Stickers you can collect, which can help you continuously improve the completeness of your Sticker Albums and get more Dice and Cash. Therefore, Stickers are not only beautiful and interesting, but also an indispensable prop for you to continue playing Monopoly Go.

After that, when you collect enough Stickers, they can increase the completeness of each Sticker Albums. These Albums can help you get Dice or Cash that can be used in the game.

As the game unfolds, Monopoly Go’s Sticker Albums will continue to launch new Sets. For example, a set of Sticker Sets called Monopoly Games was launched on June 20. You can collect Stickers in this set of Sticker Sets until September 26.

In addition, different Sticker Albums have different themes. For example, Monopoly Games are themed in sports, and the Stickers are full of various interesting sports pictures, which are very interesting.

How To Exchange Cards With Friends?

Of course, a large number of duplicate Stickers will appear in the process of collecting Stickers. At this time, you can enter Sticker Album menu by clicking the option in the lower right corner of the game interface to trade Cards with others.

However, the above transactions require Stars to facilitate, exchanging Stickers with game friends is more cost-effective. The specific method is as follows:

• After entering the game, click Album button on the right side of Dice button
• After opening Album with Sticker Collections, click Card you want to exchange
• Select the duplicate Card of the existing Card
• Click Send to Friend option and select the player you want to exchange with in the friend list
• Click Make an Exchange option

After completing the above steps, you can successfully exchange duplicate Stickers with your friends! But don’t forget to remind your friends to agree to your exchange request through Timeline tab. When your friends choose to agree to the transaction, you have successfully exchanged.

As a classic board game, although Monopoly Go is not difficult to operate, and the gameplay is not rich, the collection of Stickers is undoubtedly its major highlight. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why it has become so popular recently.

NBA 2K25, which is loved by NBA fans, has officially met with everyone two days ago. I believe that you must be using various methods to get high scores in a game. Whether in the real court or in the virtual court in NBA 2K25, mastering some scoring skills is of great help to players and teams.

In NBA 2K25, the best and most iconic way to score is dunk. But it is not applicable in all situations. At this time, you can perform an Alley-Oop with your teammates. These two methods together are definitely a great threat to the opposing team! Fortunately, these two methods are not very difficult to operate in the game, so this guide will start with how to perform dunks and Alley-Oop. This guide is only for reference, and the specific operation steps can be appropriately modified according to your habits. Without further ado, bring your outstanding players enhanced with 2K25 MT Points to learn how to dunk and perform Alley-Oop!

How To Dunk?

Like the functions in all games in NBA 2K series, there are two ways to shoot. One is to use Sqaure/X button, and the other is to shoot directly with the right joystick. It is worth mentioning that these two operation methods have no effect on the accuracy of the dunk, so you can choose anyone.

When you start preparing to dunk, you need to hold down R2 or right trigger on the controller to make the player you control sprint to the basket. Then, when you are close to the basket, hold down Sqaure/X button or the up and down buttons on the right joystick to let the player shoot.

It should be noted here that the dunk animation will only be triggered when you are close enough to the basket itself. So you can hold down the dunk button while sprinting, and the dunk animation will be triggered once the player enters the dunk range.

If the opponent’s defender blocks you when sprinting, you have to think carefully about the next situation: continue to dunk or give up this operation? If your player is taller than the defender, you can continue to attack, but if he is the same height or not as tall as the defender, you can choose to find a gap to breakthrough as soon as possible, or pass the ball you hold to other players.

How To Do An Alley-Oop?

If you have various problems preventing you from scoring in the dunk just now, you can try the expanded air relay in NBA 2K25. In this action, you can pass the ball to your teammate in the air, or your teammate passes it to you, to avoid the opponent’s defensive player stealing it.

This operation is often seen in real games. For example, the famous star LeBron James has used this operation in many important scoring moments. Next, let’s take a look at how to pass the ball to teammates in the air and catch the pass from teammates in the air in NBA 2K25. What you need to remind you here is that Alley-Oop will test the shooting ability of your players more than dunks, so if your player has low shooting attribute values, you can use NBA 2K25 MT to invest in and upgrade him.

Alley-Oop To Other Players

Before doing this operation, you need to pay attention to whether the teammate who passed the ball to you has entered the painted area under the basket. If it is already in the area, you can double-click Triangle/Y button to let the ball you hold rise.

Next, you need to press Square/X or the right joystick to let the other player catch the ball steadily and let him dunk. This is the most difficult of all the operations, and may require you to practice several times, or use some NBA 2K25 MT Coins to enhance the speed of this player’s movement.

If you try to pass the ball to other players in the air many times, you will find it helpful to set up a barrier before performing this operation, so that your target player has enough opportunity and time to rush to the basket, and it will also catch the opposing defense off guard.

Alley-Oop From Other Players

Besides passing the ball to other players in the air, you can also Alley-Oop from other players. The operation method of this differs slightly from the previous ones. Your teammate needs to toss the ball up, but the goal is not to score, but to make the ball bounce off the backboard. At this time, you can pick up and dunk the bounced ball back into the basket. This is a completed standard Alley-Oop.

If you want to complete this operation, you first need to control the player who tosses the ball and press X+O or A+B to toss the target ball up. Then you can press Square/X or the right joystick to perform the dunk operation again, which will safely put the ball into the basket and score.

Here I need to remind you that Alley-Oop action is best performed in a 1v1 situation. If you face too many defenders, your operation of this set of actions will be very easily interrupted, and the ball you hold will also be stolen.

The above are the two important scoring skills in NBA 2K25 - Dunk and Alley-Oop. You can find some free time to practice repeatedly in the practice field, because these two skills are very important for you to score on the court. I wish you win more games in NBA 2K25!

In Black Myth Wukong, which is based on the traditional Chinese mythology Journey to the West, if you are hurt in battle or exploration, you need to use drinks to heal yourself. But each drink in the game has different effects besides healing.

The additional effects of these drinks are inversely proportional to their own healing effects. The rarer the drinks, the more slots for Soaks, so you can choose the corresponding drinks according to your needs after you enter the game.

This guide introduces nine drinks into the current game process. However, if you are not pursuing Brewer’s Bounty Trophy or Achievement, you need to remember that you do not need to collect all drinks. Please look for it as needed.

Jade Dew

This is the first drink you get, which will appear in Chapter 1. And this is an upgraded version of the starting drink available in the first chapter.

Lambbrew

This is the second drink you encounter in the entire game, and the only one in Chapter 2. When you enter Chapter 2, you need to go up from where you started. But be careful not to go too far. If you see Village Entrance Keeper’s Shrine, it means you have missed it and need to backtrack.

You will have a small wooden bridge over a pond next to this path. Go up and reach the other side of the bridge. Then continue along this path, bypassing the archers who are always shooting arrows at you, until you come to an open entrance. You can find Lambbrew at the end of this path.

Bluebridge Romance

For Bluebridge Romance, you need to enter Chapter 3 first and reach the north shore of Bitter Lake Keeper’s Shrine. Then walk toward the arena where you fought Chen Loong. If you don’t know, you can follow the path to the right of Keeper’s Shrine.

If this is your first time exploring, you’ll see an NPC trapped by three enemies who need your help. You can choose to defeat them, which will start Treasure Hunter quest, which rewards you with Spell Binder Spell and some Black Myth Wukong Items. After you interact with NPC, go to your left and across a pond to find Bluebridge Romance on the shore.

Jade Essence

Jade Essence Drink is guarded by Old Ginseng Guai boss near Towers of Karma Keeper’s Shrine, which means you have to fight to get it. If you haven’t explored Towers of Karma Keeper’s Shrine, you can take the path to the left of Forest of Felicity and turn right when you pass the third Tori gate on this path instead of entering the gate.

There will be some enemies waiting for you here, but they won’t chase you all the time, so you can ignore them if you don’t really need Will. But remember, you need to follow the path on the left when running to reach Keeper’s Shrine, otherwise you will easily get lost without a map.

Pinebrew

You can use the fast travel mechanism to return to Shen Monkey in Bamboo Grove to get Pinebrew when you first enter Chapter 4. But here I need to remind you that if you have completed Chen Loong’s quest before, its location will no longer be Bamboo Grove, but Zodiac Village. So when using the fast travel mechanism, be sure to determine your destination.

Worryfree Brew

Worryfree Brew Drink is in a house with three cocoons blocking your way. How do you get to this house? Start at Middle Hollow Keeper’s Shrine, then turn around and go straight into an area with lots of cocoons. Then walk a short distance to your left and you’ll see a bridge leading to the house.

Alternatively, you can go directly to the house from Verdure Bridge, but you’ll still need to go into the previous hole and fight Scorpion Prince Spirit before you can get to the wooden bridge in front of the house.

Sunset Of The Nine Skies

After you upgrade your weapons or equipment with Black Myth Wukong Items in Court of Illumination Keeper’s Shrine, go down the stairs in front of you, then go straight and go to the door on the left.

At the end of this path, you can turn left and go up two sets of stairs, then turn right. At the end of this path, you’ll see Sunset of the Nine Skies on a table. If you’re a player who likes a challenge, you can collect some mushrooms in this area, which will cause Fungiwoman to come out and fight you.

Loong Balm

After you fight Keeper of Flaming Mountains and Yin-Yang Fish in Emerald Hall, you’ll go through a very nice cutscene. Then, after the cutscene ends, look over to where Mother was sitting in the cutscene, and you’ll see Loong Balm waiting for you. This is your reward for completing the fight.

A Thousand Days Inebriation

Like Pinebrew, you can trade A Thousand Days Inebriation with Shen Monkey when you first enter Chapter 6. Also note the location of Shen Monkey.

In addition to the above nine drinks, there is also a starting drink called Coconut Wine Drink. You can upgrade Coconut Wine Drink by getting some Awaken Wine Worms from Shen Monkey. Like other drinks, the higher the level, the more healing it provides and the more slots for Soaks it has.

The above are all the types and locations of drinks in Black Myth Wukong. I hope you can use this guide to find the drink you want. I wish you have fun in this new game!

Ever since some trailers and pictures of Black Myth Wukong were released a few years ago, it has deeply attracted the attention of players, and they are all looking forward to whether they can feel the same experience in the official game as in the trailer. As expected, in the official version released two days ago, Chinese developer Game Science fully delivered on its previous promise.

Its outstanding features, such as fast-paced and diverse battles and carefully crafted and almost non-repetitive boss battles, make players call it perfect. But it is not perfect. After a week, players have put forward their own suggestions for some of the minor problems.

This guide will refine several of the most popular ones for you. If you think the same, you can communicate with everyone in IGGM Discord! If you haven’t made up your mind whether to start trying Black Myth Wukong, you can also consider whether you can accept it based on the questions raised in this guide.

1. There Is No Mini-Map In The Complete Game

Unlike other action-RPGs or soulslikes, in Black Myth Wukong, you can’t find a complete map except the road in front of you, and you can only rely on your sense of direction to explore a very open area.

Although players are aware that the developers want to encourage players to explore without relying on the mini-map, because of the design of Black Myth Wukong, you can only enter the next area after exploring a certain area, which makes it very easy to get lost.

In the first chapter, all the quests are streamlined, so you can complete the main quest without the help of a mini-map. But in the subsequent process, it will become more difficult because there are many interconnected paths. On top of that, the environments in a chapter are extremely similar, and there is no unique landmark to help you identify the direction.

In addition, there is no tracking system in Black Myth Wukong, which is very uncomfortable for players who like to explore some hidden secrets, optional bosses, treasure chests and collectibles, because they can’t explore completely, especially when they are looking for lost meditation points. If this problem is solved in future updates, more players will flock to Black Myth Wukong.

2. There Are Too Many Invisible Walls During Exploration

As I just said, you cannot unlock another area in Black Myth Wukong before you have fully explored a certain area, because there is an invisible wall between the two areas. This will greatly destroy the player’s immersion in exploration and it is very easy to get lost.

You may see an open space in front of you when you are avoiding some monsters or bosses, but when you rush there, there will be an invisible wall blocking you. This is likely to cause you to be attacked again during this period, which is very disadvantageous for your battle.

There may also be another situation where you see an open space during the exploration process, but you subconsciously think there is an invisible wall there, which causes you to miss some hidden treasure chests or secret areas. Most importantly, it will make you miss out on a lot of Black Myth Wukong Items, which are very important when you’re crafting weapons.

This will cause each player to have a different exploration progress for Black Myth Wukong, and the experience is also different, some good and some bad.

While it’s unlikely that invisible walls will be removed or the entire environment will be modified in a large game like Black Myth Wukong, players still hope that in subsequent patches or updates, there will be a mark to indicate whether there is an invisible wall here, which is convenient for players to explore.

3. Add More Some Deeper Trading System

The trading system in Black Myth Wukong consists of several NPC merchants. You can trade with them for some useful resources or Black Myth Wukong Items that can be used for upgrades. And their inventory will continue to expand as you progress in the game.

In addition, Shrines in the game can also provide you with specific goods related to the current chapter area or secret locations. This looks great, right? But in fact, you can only trade gold pieces or treasure statues with merchants, nothing else.

However, since there are so many consumables and resources collected in the game, players are very eager to exchange these unused resources for the in-game currency Will to facilitate upgrading equipment or Cultivate Spirits, and at the same time, the player’s experience will also increase.

As long as it is adjusted a little, more depth and convenience can be added to the trading system in Black Myth Wukong. Let’s look forward to whether it will change in subsequent games.

4. Cannot Reassign Spirits

It is worth mentioning that the character development in Black Myth Wukong is very good, as it provides different skill trees for staff stances, various spells and transformations, and celestial medicine passive buffs, and these systems are extremely flexible, allowing you to reassign unlimited times when you want to try new things.

However, this flexibility does not apply to Spirit Cultivation system. Once you select and upgrade certain Spirits, you cannot recoup the resources invested in new options. Although you can acquire more Will and Blood of the Iron Bull from the enemy, players can experience fewer losses by freely reassigning Cultivated Spirits.

If the developers improve this, Spirit Cultivation system will become the most competitive point of Black Myth Wukong, and it will be vibrant.

The above are some small opinions raised by players after experiencing Black Myth Wukong. We don’t know when these suggestions can be implemented, but it is still worth mentioning that Black Myth Wukong is definitely a game worth exploring! I wish you a happy game!

When a new season of Diablo 4 begins, many players will be very focused on enormous weapons, aspects, or other items that will make their builds even more powerful so they can further fulfill their ultimate goal of slaying demons.

In Season 5, the most popular Unique among players is Shard of Verathiel, because this sword can be added to all builds and performs very well. Since it can be used in all builds, it means that all Classes can also use it. Its affixes can increase Maximum Resource and Basic Attack Speed, allowing you to have unpredictable damage. In addition, when you wield Shard of Verathiel, your basic skills will also increase damage, but it will cost 25 Primary Resources.

For its role, this Primary Resources is insignificant. This guide will show you how to get this powerful weapon in Season 5, as well as Offensive Aspects required for each Class.

How To Get Shard Of Verathiel?

Since Shard of Verathiel is one of the 15 new Unique items in Season 5, like all Unique items, you can find it in the seasonal event Infernal Hordes. To unlock Infernal Hordes, you need to complete the main questline of the season, including The Eyes of the Enemy and To the Edge of the Abyss. You can’t do it without both.

After you complete both quests, you will be rewarded with an Infernal Compass. This is your key to unlock Infernal Hordes, and you need an Infernal Compass of the corresponding level to enter Infernal Hordes.

After you fight in Infernal Hordes, you will be rewarded with Spoils of Equipment or Spoils of Greater Equipment chests. When you open these chests, you may find Shard of Verathiel and some Diablo 4 Gold.

There is no guarantee that Shard of Verathiel will appear in a certain chest in a certain level of Infernal Hordes, so all you can do is run as high-level Infernal Hordes as possible and fight more enemies in them, so that you have a better chance of getting the Shard of Verathiel.

Best Offensive Aspects

As just mentioned, Shard of Verathiel can provide certain benefits to any Class and any build, mainly because this weapon focuses so much on basic skills. But it is still important to note that when you equip this weapon, you can also use some Offensive Aspects to enhance the unique ability of Shard of Verathiel and add more advantages to your battle.

The following are Offensive Aspects you can use in each Class.

For General

Aspect Of The Expectant: With this Aspect, your basic attacks will increase the damage of your next Core Skill by 5%-10%, up to a maximum of 30%.

Rapid Aspect: With this Aspect, your Basic Skills attack speed increases by 15%-30%.

Aspect Of The Moonrise: With this Aspect, after hitting an enemy with a Basic Skill, your attack speed increases by 4% for 10 seconds, stacking up to 5 times. At the maximum number of stacks, you enter Vampiric Bloodrage, increasing Basic Skill damage by 40%-80% and movement speed by 15%, for 10 seconds.

For Barbarian

Aspect Of Encroaching Wrath: With this Aspect and after spending 100 points of your Fury, your next Weapons Master Skill damage increases by 40%-60%.

For Druid

Raw Might Aspect: With this Aspect and after hitting 15 enemies with any Shapeshifting Skills, your next Werebear Skill will deal 40%-55% more damage to enemies. In addition, it will cause Stun to enemies for 3 seconds.

Runeworker’s Conduit Aspect: With this Aspect and use Critical Strikes with Storm skills, the surrounding air will be charged for 3 seconds, and Lightning Bolt will periodically hit enemies in the area. Each Lightning Bolt will deal 250%-300% Lightning damage to enemies.

Crashstone Aspect: With this Aspect, your Earth Skills will deal 40%-50% more Critical Strike Damage to enemies that are controlled.

For Necromancer

Shattered Spirit’s Aspect: With this Aspect, using Bone Spirit will launch 18 Bone Splinters around you, dealing 200%-400% additional damage. In addition, each Bone Splinter hits an enemy and generates 6 Essence for you.

Rotting Aspect: With this Aspect, Decompose skill can be continuous and burst up to 2 additional targets, and the explosion damage generated by Decompose is also increased by 15%-30%.

Aspect Of Swelling Curse: With this Aspect, Bone Spirit’s Critical Strike Chance is increased by 15%-25%, and each enemy hit increases your Maximum Essence by 2 for 15 seconds.

For Rogue

Aspect Of Artful Initiative: With this Aspect and have spent 75 Energy, you unleash a barrage of exploding Stun Grenades that deal Physical damage to enemies and grant them Stun for 0.5 seconds. Your Grenade Skills also increase damage by 25%-40%.

Aspect Of Pestilent Points: With this Aspect, every three times you cast Puncture is Poison, you inject poison into your next attack with 1x to 1.5x the normal poison strength.

The three general Aspects mentioned above are the best aspects of this weapon, because they can directly increase all the basic skills of Shard of Verathiel, allowing you to use dazzling skills without being busy during the battle. In addition to the above aspects, there are some other aspects connected to the build that use these basic skills, such as Puncture or Druid’s Shapeshifting, Storm, and Earth abilities, which can make your equipment more powerful.

That’s all about how to get Shard of Verathiel in Diablo 4 Season 5, and what Offensive Aspects you can choose for it. Hopefully, you can defeat more bosses with this powerful One-Handed Sword!

Path of Exile players must know that in each challenge league, some new mining materials are added, and Settlers of Kalguur is no exception. In this seasonal challenge league, you will be responsible for building a small town called Kingsmarch into a prosperous place of commerce, which requires a lot of materials, time and workers.

When building Kingsmarch, the first important resource you encounter is Crimson Ore, and the second is Orichalcum Ore. You can’t mine it yourself. You need to mark the location on the map and wait for your workers to collect it.

This guide will show you how to unlock these two important materials and how to mine them. It should be noted here that if you want to mine all the ores in one go, you need to use some POE Currency to upgrade your Mining operation to level 6 or above. Without further ado, let’s take a look!

How To Find Crimson Ore?

To get Crimson Ore, you need to talk to Johan in Kingsmarch, who is a very important NPC in the entire Settlers of Kalguur League. Is he hard to find? Of course not! You will find him in the first act.

As you interact with him, Corrupted Growths around you will open up, and enemies will continue to spawn. It is important to figure out who you are focusing on killing, Corrupted Growths and not the enemies. If you don’t cut off the source, it will spawn more enemies and you may be overwhelmed by them.

When all Corrupted Growths are destroyed, a marker will appear around the center of Crimson Ore Deposit. If your Kingsmarch still has idle workers at this time, the portal will open up, allowing them to mine Crimson Ore.

How To Find Orichalcum Ore?

When you discover Orichalcum Ore Deposit while exploring any map, several Pale creatures will appear around you. You can kill these creatures, and you will also receive a marker for Orichalcum Ore, besides some POE Currency.

At this point you can return to Kingsmarch and hire a worker with Mining skill to mine it. Here’s a tip for you: when you complete Prisoner’s Gate area, you can find a very large Orichalcum Ore Deposit, which will be very easy to find.

How To Use Workers To Mine?

In Town Overview Menu, you can clearly see how much ore you have and how many ores are marked but not mined. As mentioned earlier, you can’t mine in person, so without workers, you can’t collect Crimson Ore and Orichalcum Ore.

First, you need to go to Kingsmarch, build a mine and hire some workers. The steps to build a mine are also very simple. You just need to go to the area on the west side of Kingsmarch and interact with NPC there. It will cost you some POE Currency, and then you can build a simple mine.

So how do you hire workers? You need to talk to Raulf in the central tavern. After this conversation, you can choose from a variety of workers on the page, and you can refresh to show more choices. Once these workers start mining for you, don’t forget to return to the mining area and interact with the board. What I can tell you here is that you can assign a worker of mine a specific ore for you. For example, you can assign a worker of mine Crimson Ore specifically.

After the mining task is completed, Crimson Ore and Orichalcum Ore will enter your town’s inventory. If you have a worker who specializes in smelting, the ore will be smelted when it enters the warehouse. There is a very important tip to tell you that your workers will only mine and smelt when Kingsmarch has enough funds. If you must pay attention, you must deposit POE Currency into the town’s treasury in time after you obtain it.

How To Mine Crimson Ore And Orichalcum Ore?

After setting up your mine and workers, you can start mining. I just said that you can find Crimson Ore and Orichalcum Ore mines on any map, so after you mark them, the best way is to run this map and search this area.

But it should be noted that these ores will not appear in those generated maps, only in new maps. So you can’t just mine repeatedly through a map. So how to maximize the amount of ore mined? You can hire more workers, because each worker has the same mining efficiency at the same time.

If you want to mine ore and smelt it in Kingsmarch at the same time, but you don’t have enough workers, you can move the smelting workers to the mining task, which will greatly increase the efficiency of mining Crimson Ore and Orichalcum Ore.

The above is some information and steps on how to mine Crimson Ore and Orichalcum Ore in Path of Exile 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur. I hope you can have fun playing in Settlers of Kalguur League, and I wish you can build your Kingsmarch into a prosperous town as soon as possible!

In Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree, many things are added that are not in the base game, and Thiollier’s Hidden Needle is no exception. In addition to adding new weapons and spells, it also adds a brand new status effect, Eternal Sleep. Eternal Sleep is a little different from the previous normal sleep effect. Eternal Sleep can be triggered by using either Velvet Sword of St. Trina or Thiollier’s Hidden Needle.

Although Thiollier’s Hidden Needle is useless in PVE mode, because most bosses in the DLC are resistant to sleep or Eternal Sleep effects. But in PVP mode, when it is used with Thiollier’s Hidden Needle’s ash of war Sleep Evermore, it is absolutely invincible.

But for a weapon, the effect it can produce depends on the build you make for it. So this guide will give you a detailed introduction on how to choose the best build for Thiollier’s Hidden Needle.

Best Attribute Distribution

Before choosing a build, you need to know that Thiollier’s Hidden Needle is mainly developed through Dexterity, and then Intelligence. So in terms of attributes, you need to first increase Dexterity to 70, and then invest the remaining skill points in Intelligence to maximize your damage.

In addition, you also need to know that Ash of War does not consume a lot of your FP, so you only need to invest 10 points in Mind. But if you want to integrate spells into your build, you can consider investing a little more.

In Faith attribute, you can invest 25 points to reach the minimum requirement of Golden Vow. But if you don’t need this buff in daily tasks and exploration, you can choose to ignore it. You can use Uplifting Aromatic instead. Here are the minimum points you need to make sure you have for each attribute before building:

• Vigor 40
• Endurance 24
• Mind 10
• Strength 10
• Dexterity 70
• Intelligence 40
• Faith 25
• Arcane 10

Best Gear

After choosing your attributes, you will start to choose some gear that can be matched with Thiollier’s Hidden Needle. Many players will ask, why should it be matched with other weapons? Can’t it be used alone?

Obviously not, because the effect of using Thiollier’s Hidden Needle alone is not good, first because it has a short range, and second because it can only cause a small amount of Eternal Sleep effect when used alone. Therefore, when it is used with the right items and weapons, it will be easier to get Elden Ring Runes.

Here are the weapons and items you can choose to match it with in the DLC.

Velvet Sword of St. Trina

When you use Velvet Sword of St. Trina, it will project a cloud that will put the target into Eternal Sleep. You can switch to Thiollier’s Hidden Needle and use its Ash of War to defeat the enemy.

Spread Crossbow

For this weapon, you can put it in your off-hand. This way, when you use it in combat, each shot will fire multiple arrows. Combined with Thiollier’s Hidden Needle in your dominant hand, you can kill enemies faster when they enter Eternal Sleep.

Eternal Sleep Pot

In the DLC, many ritual pots were added, one of which is Eternal Sleep Pot. This Elden Ring Item allows you to throw 10 pots at once to cause the sleep effect.

Best Talisman

Since Thiollier’s Hidden Needle can cause Eternal Sleep, you can choose some amulets in the DLC that can also cause this effect, or amulets that help you increase the effect. For example, Shard of Alexander, St. Trina’s Smile, Ritual Sword Talisman, and Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman.

Although Companion Jar can help you increase the damage caused by throwing jars, it does not increase the accumulation of Eternal Sleep status, so you can ignore it in this build.

Best Wondrous Physik Mixture

It should be noted here that Wondrous Physik is not very useful for this build, so you can use any crystal tear you like.

But this definitely does not mean that there are no best choices. You can choose Opaline Hardtear and Opaline Bubbletear to enhance your defense, or Greenburst Crystal Tear is also a very good auxiliary item.

How To Use The Build?

After you have selected all your weapons, items and attributes, you can start using your build. First, you need to equip Spread Crossbow in your off-hand and bring Sleepbone bolts. This way, you can quickly put the enemy target to sleep.

In some cases, you can also use sleep pots and ritual sleep pots. You must remember that the first priority is to put the enemy player to sleep or sleep forever.

Once the state is in effect, you can equip Thiollier’s Hidden Needle in both hands and use its Ash of War to hit the enemy. This will cause a lot of damage to their health, and finally a heavy hit will kill them.

After understanding the construction of Thiollier’s Hidden Needle, have you opened the steps in this guide to change your build step by step? I hope it can help you when you use Thiollier’s Hidden Needle in combat. Wish you a happy game!

Elden Ring has added a lot of powerful weapons in this latest DLC, but have you tried the strong additions to the colossal sword class in the game? This category includes Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword, Moonrithyll’s Knight Sword, and Fire Knight’s Greatsword we are talking about today.

In this weapon category, Fire Knight’s Greatsword stands out from the crowd because of its powerful moves and some unique abilities. It has the light attack combination of the legendary Godslayer Greatsword, the classic stabbing attack of the giant sword, and the lightweight characteristics of the iconic Zweihander.

But the rarity of this excellent weapon is also its only drawback. You can only find it on rare Fire Knights in Shadow Keep. Once you have it, you can make a pretty perfect build around it, making your entire character more powerful. Before creating a build, you need to have 22 Strength, 18 Dexterity, and 12 Faith. This guide will show you how to make the most powerful build around Fire Knight’s Greatsword.

Best Affinity And Stats

Fire Knight’s Greatsword has a special feature that it can get extra damage from fire-related Ashes of War or Grease. This means that it can also be blessed with flame incantation. So you need to infuse flame when making a build, which can greatly increase the power of this weapon.

Similarly, Flame is the best affinity for Fire Knight’s Greatsword because it is highly correlated with Faith stat. So you can prioritize flame, and other infusions may not be as useful for this weapon.

Ideally, you should end up with 60 Faith so that you can get Flame affinity. If this stat is not reached, you can try the following 60 Strength, both of which will greatly increase the attack power of Fire Knight’s Greatsword. Don’t overdo it though, as the benefits of one of these two attributes start to diminish after your attribute is above 60.

If you have a Strength, Faith, or hybrid Strength-Faith build, then Fire and Flame affinities are your best bet. For some enemies that are resistant to fire, switching to a Heavy or Sacred affinity can be a big help. They will also allow you to defeat enemies more easily and obtain Elden Ring Runes faster.

Best Ashes Of War

In Fire Knight’s Greatsword, you have access to a variety of powerful Ashes of War. As mentioned above, Flame infusion does more damage, so you should prioritize Ashes of War that deal fire damage, provide fire infusion, and have a Fire or Flame affinity. In the DLC, you can choose between Ash of War Flame Spear and Ash of War Flame Skewer.

Both of these Ashes of War are Flame affinity Ashes of War that are very powerful in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree. In contrast, Flame Spear has a longer range and can launch a stabbing attack to close the distance between you and the enemy, allowing you to defeat enemies more easily while keeping a safe distance. You can also use Elden Ring Runes to enhance your Ashes of War, so you may have an easier time in combat.

Flame Skewer is a fire variant of Giant Hunt skill with a follow-up attack. Both of these provide you with additional fire damage, the former lasting 15 seconds and the latter lasting 45 seconds.

In addition, you can choose between Flame of Redmanes, Lion’s Claw, Savage Lion’s Claw, and Cragblade. Flame of Redmanes provides you with AOE fire attack, Lion’s Claw and Savage Lion’s Claw both provide you with High attack and stance damage. The last Cragblade can increase your physical attack and stance damage.

If you find some better equipment than the items recommended in this guide during the game, you can find Elden Ring player community in Discord and express your opinions there. IGGM Discord will occasionally release some welfare information in the community, come and participate!

Best Talismans

For the talismans, it depends on your play style and weapon. For Fire Knight’s Greatsword, you still need something with Flame infusion, so Shard of Alexander is your best choice, as it provides you with 15% extra damage.

If you are ready to fight the enemy head-on, Spear Talisman is also a good choice, because Fire Knight’s Greatsword can be used when you use crouching and charging attacks. In addition to the above two, you can also choose Godfrey Icon to increase your charge thrust.

Just now I have been talking about increasing attack power. For survivability, Erdtree’s Favor +2 and Bull Goat’s talisman can provide you with enough balance to hit the target enemy you marked. Also, since colossal swords drain a lot of your stamina, you might also consider picking up Two-Headed Turtle Talisman to speed up your stamina regeneration.

Best Buffs

Fire Knight’s Greatsword can be enhanced in a number of ways, but the easiest way is to drink Flask of Wondrous Physick with Flame-Shrouding Cracked Tear and Stonebarb Cracked Tear. The former increases your fire damage, while the latter increases your stance damage.

You can also use Spiked Cracked Tear or Oil Soaked Tear instead of Stonebarb Cracked Tear, which increases the damage of your charged attacks. With Oil Soaked Tear, you can apply the oil to enemies to increase their fire damage. But you need to be careful about your positioning at this time, as if you are too close, the fire will burn you.

Since Fire Knight’s Greatsword is tied to Faith build, you have access to a wide variety of beneficial spells, including buffs, such as Golden Vow, which gives you some extra damage and some extra damage reduction, and you can stack it with Flame, Grant me Strength incantation, which gives you more fire and physical damage.

The above is how to make a powerful build around Fits Fire Knight’s Greatsword, I hope it can make your battles easier.

The recent release of Final Fantasy 14 Dawntrail has led to a meta shakeup. From changes to certain job skills and cooldowns to exploring new raids, players in the game are entering uncharted territory.

So in the current situation, players are eager to know which food and equipment they should use their limited resources on, as well as the best slot food for each job in the raid. If you want to take it easy, you can choose two or three, and your choice only depends on the statistics provided by your remaining equipment and your play style.

This guide will introduce you to which food to use in different jobs, which will not only greatly save your trial-and-error time but also reduce your trial-and-error costs!

Best In Slot Food For Melee DPS Jobs

For Melee DPS Jobs, such as Monk, new Viper, or Samuri, they all have similar statistics to Tank, and have additional crit. So, the food they use is mostly the same BIS food.

As of patch 7.01, either Vegetable Soup or Fruit and Aloe Jelly can be used in raids, but the latter is better.

Vegetable Soup

• Direct hit rate +8% (up to 96)
• Vitality +8% (up to 141)
• Determination +8% (up to 58)

Because Vegetable Soup has a very high IL, and the combination of Direct Hit and Vitality, this food is widely used in various professions. For Melee DPS Jobs, a small amount of Vitality and Determination can greatly improve the survivability of the character, while also providing you with a small damage buff.

However, Vegetable Soup lacks a little crit, so your damage input may be slightly weaker if you use it.

Fruit And Aloe Jelly

• Determination +8% (up to 90)
• Vitality +8% (up to 132)
• Critical Hit +8% (up to 54)

Fruit and Aloe Jelly works perfectly with the stats of Melee DPS Jobs - it has a decent Critical Hit bonus, Vitality, and Determination. You’ll feel the significant damage from the determination and Critical Hit stats, but you’ll also feel the same amount of Vitality as Vegetable Soup.

Best In Slot Food For Ranged DPS Jobs

Ranged DPS Jobs usually rely on its Determination and Direct Hit, plus the ability speed can reduce GCD, so you and your team will get bonuses, including FFXIV Gil, more often.

In addition to the above two points, the ability speed is usually increased to a certain level. So Vegetable Soup or Mesquite Soup is your first choice, but the specific situation still depends on your own stats.

Vegetable Soup

• Direct hit rate +8% (up to 96)
• Vitality +8% (up to 141)
• Determination +8% (up to 58)

Vegetable Soup is ideal for increasing raw damage output and is the more “selfish” choice. This also makes it a brilliant choice for Machinists, and other Ranged DPS jobs that have already reached the desired GCD level through existing equipment.

Mesquite Soup

• Skill Speed ​​​​+8% (up to 96)
• Hit Power +8% (up to 141)
• Direct Hit Rate +8% (up to 58)

Mesquite Soup differs completely from Vegetable Soup. Mesquite Soup will increase your GCD to the next level while also providing you with a useful Direct Hit. This will make Bard and Dancer buff last longer in combat.

Although Mesquite Soup cannot increase the number of players itself, like Vegetable Soup, it is very good for teamwork and can significantly increase team damage.

Best In Slot Food For Magical DPS Jobs

In the game community, players who use Magical DPS Jobs prefer more damage, followed by spell speed. Considering the ultimate equipment available in Dawntrail, only Vegetable Soup and Creamy Alpaca Pasta are most suitable for Magical DPS Jobs.

Vegetable Soup

• Direct Hit Rate +8% (up to 96)
• Vitality +8% (up to 141)
• Determination +8% (up to 58)

Vegetable Soup is more suitable for players who want to maximize damage and do not consider GCD. The most typical is players using Black Mages, as well as players who use other Jobs but have reached the upper limit of the spell speed they need.

Creamy Alpaca Pasta

• Spell Speed+8% (up to 96)
• Hit Power +8% (up to 141)
• Direct Hit Rate +8% (up to 58)

Creamy Alpaca Pasta can help you reach the next Spell Speed ​​Breakpoint, and you can also provide you with a little Direct Hit Rate. This is very useful for some damaging skills for a long time, but at the same time, cooldown time is also very useful, especially for the newly added Pictomancer or Summoner in Dawntrail.

Best in Slot Food For Tanks

Because of its own attributes, Tanks usually find Vitality, Tenacity, and Determination or Critical Hit. With the launch of Dawntrail Raids and Culinarian Recipes, most Tanks will choose one of Vegetable Soup, Fruit And Aloe Jelly, OR Tacos de Carne Asada.

For most Tank jobs, Vegetable Soup is the first choice. But except Gunbreakers, it is more inclined to the other two.

Vegetable Soup

• Direct Hit Rate +8% (up to 96)
• Vitality +8% (up to 141)
• Determination +8% (up to 58)

Vegetable Soup becomes BIS Food again, which is not surprising, because the attributes of no food can be compared with the Vitality, Determination, and Direct Hit Rate it provided.

If you have the limited crit gain in your team, then you can recommend them to try Vegetable Soup, and it is also possible to use it by yourself. In addition, the additional Vitality he provided can provide you with greater damage.

Fruit And Aloe Jelly

• Determination +8% (up to 90)
• Vitality +8% (up to 132)
• Critical Hit +8% (up to 54)

If your Static/Party Finder already contains many Critical Hit Buffs, then you can choose Fruit And Aloe Jelly. The data of this food is very similar to the Vegetable soup. The difference is that it has a Critical Hit rather than Direct Hit Rate.

Just mentioned that Gunbreakers will like this food very much, because after use, there will be ultra-high damage and crit.

Tacos De Carne Asada

• Tenacity +8% (up to 96)
• Vitality +8% (up to 141)
• Determination +8% (up to 58)

Although Tacos de Carne Asada is the lowest of the three foods, it can significantly improve Tanks' survivability. Tanks work as one armor in most other games, so they receive considerable buffs and make healing more powerful.

If you want to use Tanks to face the enemy easier, or reduce the pressure of the therapist in your team, then Tacos de Carne Asada will be your best choice because it can provide you with higher ones itself. Damage will also reduce some of the damage you suffer.

Best In Slot Food For Healers

Healers in Final Fantasy 14 usually selects some foods with Determination, Critical Hit, or Direct Hit Bonuses. Although Spell Speed ​​will greatly improve your damage and treatment output, if you add too much, it will seriously consume your MP reserves.

So at this stage, you can choose Vegetable Soup or Fruit And Aloe Jelly.

Vegetable Soup

• Direct Hit Rate +8% (up to 96)
• Vitality +8% (up to 141)
• Determination +8% (up to 58)

Vegetable Soup provides Healers with a large amount of Determination and Vitality, both of which are very useful for your treatment. Another attribute, Direct Hit, although it cannot help you maintain the chief function of your life, it can greatly increase your damage output when treating your team.

In addition, there will be few Direct Hit in Healers’s equipment, so the increase in this attribute may give you unexpected surprises.

Fruit And Aloe Jelly

• Determination +8% (up to 90)
• Vitality +8% (up to 132)
• Critical Hit +8% (up to 54)

Unlike Vegetable Soup, Fruit And Aloe Jelly will pay more attention to treatment. Although the overall attribute it provides is relatively weak, you will notice that it provides Critical Hit rather than Direct Hit Rate, which will cause your damage skills and trigger treatment.

The above is about how to choose the right food for each job to face the raid on FFXIV Dawntrail. I hope this guide can help you with your game experience and wish you a happy game!

FFXIV is a very popular game in MMO series, and its expansion Dawntrail also brings a lot of different content to players, including the highly praised MSQ. In addition to Tural, players will experience a different exotic atmosphere, and the controversial inheritance ceremony is at its center.

Throughout the journey of Dawntrail MSQ, you will travel through most of Tural and experience a very fragmented visual experience from jungle to cyberpunk city. Each zone has its own unique attributes and is memorable to players.

Urqopacha

The quietest place in Yok Tural is Yok Tural, which is also the home of Pelupelu and Yok Huy. Urqopacha is composed of Tural’s highest peak, Worqor Zormor, and the surrounding highs and lows, where you, as a Warrior of Light, will fight the legendary beast Valigarmanda with Wuk Lamat.

Additionally, the land around Urqopacha is mostly stone and barren, which is why alpacas are the main wildlife here. The many ancient buildings and ruins of Yok Huy and Tural form many of the landmarks of this place, and also make this land enduring.

Kozama’uka

Kozama’uka is the first thing you see when you enter FFXIV Dawntrail. This land is full of tropical forests and rivers, and there are some small settlements around it, living by the water. Kozama’uka is also the home of Hanu, and the waterfalls and forests here make you feel you are in Amazon rainforest.

Kozama’uka is full of palm trees, rivers and all kinds of exotic wildlife. It is an ideal starting zone, especially in South American culture of Dawntrail.

Yak T’el

Yak T’el can be said to be the most diverse zone in Dawntrail. It is roughly divided into two parts - the home of Xbr’aal living in the highlands and the home of Mamool Ja living deep in the jungle.

In comparison, the lowlands where Mamool Ja lives are the highlight of this zone. In the lowlands, there are bright and beautiful blue, glowing wildlife, trees, etc., which make it highly similar to the picture in Avatar.

In the highlands, Xbr’aal is bathed in the sun in the woodland, forming a strong contrast with the beautiful scenery of the lowlands.

Heritage Found

When you enter Shaaloani on Dawntrail, you will see Heritage Found, and the reflection of Tural and Alexandria is reflected in this place. This means that Heritage Found is a vacant land, without any scenery or life, and most of it was destroyed in the war in Alexandria.

But fortunately, the farms in this place use advanced technology from Alexandria, which also makes many things grown in a bright and colorful color presented to the player. The wasteland of Heritage Found and these bright colors are mixed together, forming a strong contrast with other zones in FFXIV.

Shaaloani

After you and Koana are crowned as Dawnservants in Lamat, you will continue to Shaaloani with Erenville. In this wasteland of survival in the desert, Shaaloani is full of life, with many settlements and towns, the most charming of which is a western-style town called Hhusatahwi.

Hhusatahwi is full of taverns and jails run by the local town sheriff, allowing players to immerse themselves in Western style. In addition, Shaaloani’s OST is also the most unforgettable OST in the entire Dawntrail, especially its night theme, which is full of melancholy and shrouds the entire Shaaloani desert.

Tuliyollal

In each expansion of FFXIV, a central city is needed, where players can use multiple functions and talk to multiple NPCs and complete tasks to obtain FFXIV Gil, and Dawntrail is no exception.

Tuliyollal, as the central city of Dawntrail, is the home of Dawnservant Gulool Ja Ja and his son Zoraal Ja, as well as Koana and the protagonist Lamat in the expansion. Of course, most of MSQ in Dawntrail is located here.

In this exotic city, most of Tuliyollal’s urban design is also deeply influenced by South American culture. For example, most of the scenery is designed as a coastal town or resort. Tuliyollal is full of tropical houses, various institutions, and noisy but not chaotic markets. You can definitely feel the vibrant atmosphere of this zone when you explore it.

Solution Nine

Hidden in Everkeep is Solution Nine, a city with a very Cyberpunk feel, where many survivors of Alexandria live. Solution Nine is governed by King Zoraal Ja and Queen Sphene. It is also a very futuristic city with very bright lights everywhere. Scions and Lamat who explore with you are very surprised by its size.

Solution Nine is also divided into multiple zones, such as the residential zone, the government buildings of Resolution, True Vue, and Nexus Arcade. Each part has its own unique design and function, which can gradually turn the city into a utopia for survivors. Even the residents here wear futuristic clothing.

Living Memory

Living Memory is also the most amazing zone, mainly because there are all kinds of entertainment and wonders in this city. Especially its Venice version, where quaint houses surround canals and riverboats, allowing players to relax here.

In addition, Living Memory also provides players with an amusement park full of scenery such as carousels and Ferris wheels, allowing players to return to their childhood in a second and create their own utopia.

There is also a volcano in this zone, which preserves most of Milalla’s history. You can feel the thickness of the city through these histories and sigh at the current vitality. Although Sphene will lose to Warrior of Light, leaving most of the beautiful scenery of Living Memory in ruins, this empty city is still worth exploring.

After understanding these zones in Dawntrail, do you want to open the game and feast your eyes? Then I wish you a happy exploration in Dawntrail!
