General News

To provide players with more cost-effective gaming products and services, IGGM platform has officially launched a brand-new points system, designed to let you enjoy a superior shopping experience while spending less!

Below, we break down everything you need to know: how to earn points efficiently, use them for discounts or to redeem exciting rewards, and stack VIP benefits to maximize your savings.

Before Using the Points System - Registration Required

Please note that IGGM's new points system is available only to new-registered and logged-in users. If you haven't registered or logged in yet, you will need to do so to access Check-in and Points pages.

How to Earn Points?

Accumulating points at IGGM is simple and straightforward, primarily through two channels: daily check-ins and order rewards.

1. Daily Check-in

Simply click the "Check In Today" button on the IGGM Check-in Center page to complete your check-in; once the button changes to "️Checked In (Come back tomorrow)," your points have been successfully credited! Alternatively, you can also check in by clicking the current date on the calendar.

One-tap check-in (Easter egg)

There's a little Easter egg here! If you forget to check in for the day and land straight on the coupon redemption page, just tap the "little rocket" emoji at the bottom of the list to check in instantly - no need to navigate back to the Check-in Center. You'll still get those incremental rewards for consecutive check-ins.

Please note the visual differences between PC and mobile versions! For PC users, the small rocket only begins to shake and emit flames when you hover your cursor over it; a single click launches the rocket and credits your check-in points. For mobile users, the rocket icon shakes continuously—simply tap it to check in and earn your points instantly!

Other Check-in Entry

In addition, IGGM provides the following access points for quick and convenient daily check-ins:

1. Click "Go Now" on the coupon redemption page to visit the check-in center.

2. Click the coupon section at the bottom of the homepage to access the check-in center.

3. Click the banner at the bottom of any product page on IGGM to access the check-in center.

4. Quickly access the Check-in Center via the My Account → My Orders page.

Incremental Rewards for Consecutive Check-ins

IGGM's check-in system rewards consistency. If you check in without interruption, your daily points will increase over time: 5 points on the first day, 6 points on the second, and 8 points on the third. From the fourth day onwards, as long as you maintain your streak, you will consistently receive the maximum reward of 10 points per day.

Notes: If you check in via the check-in banner on the product page during your shopping journey, you can return to your original page via Back Shopping at the bottom after completing the check-in and triggering the points accumulation. You don't have to worry about your shopping progress being affected!

Reset Upon Interruption

If you miss a day or break your streak for any reason, your progress will reset to zero. Your next check-in will start back at the Day 1 rate of 5 points. Please note that the daily check-in reset is based on the server's time zone; be sure to check in on time to avoid losing progress due to network issues or other interruptions.

2. Points for Orders

Additionally, whenever you make an order on the IGGM platform, the system will award you points based on your subtotal amount.

Point Accrual Rate: $1 = 1 Point

Under standard conditions, every $1 of your actual spending converts directly into 1 point. To simplify calculations for order amounts involving decimals, IGGM rounds to the nearest whole number when determining the points earned. For example, if you pay $17.35, you receive 17 points; if you pay $34.86, you receive 35 points.

To ensure system efficiency for small transactions, the subtotal amount paid for an order must be at least $1 to trigger point accrual; orders under $1 do not generate any points.

Furthermore, points for all orders will be automatically credited to your account by the system only after the order status has officially changed to "Completed"; the number of points corresponds to the amount of the qualifying purchase.

New User Perk: 10x Point Rewards

IGGM has a welcome gift for new users! Your first paid order on IGGM automatically qualifies for a generous 10x points reward (meaning you earn 10 points for every $1 spent).

Please note the calculation method: the subtotal amount is first rounded to the nearest whole number, and then multiplied by 10 to determine the points for your first order. For example, if your first order's subtotal is $17.35, you will receive 170 points ($17.35 → 17 × 10 = 170 points), rather than multiplying by 10 first and then rounding ($17.35 × 10 = 173.5 → 174 points).

However, if your first order's subtotal is less than $1, you will not receive any points, and your first-order privilege as a new user will be used up. Therefore, IGGM recommends buying higher-value items you need during your first order to make the most of the 10x point reward.

Due to the significant value of this offer, points for the first order will be credited after the order is successfully delivered and passes a security review, provided no refund occurs within 24 hours.

You can view the specific points added upon completion in the My Account → My Orders section of IGGM.com. If you have just completed a payment but do not see the points immediately, please do not worry - simply wait a short while.

Point Value and Validity

Understanding the value of your points helps you make the best use of them. In the IGGM point system, 100 points = $1 (meaning each point is worth approximately $0.01).

Please note that points are not valid indefinitely; each point expires 90 days from the date it was earned. IGGM employs a user-friendly rolling expiration policy: points earned on Day 1 will expire at the end of Day 91. The specific calculation time for rolling expiration depends on the time zone of your account's IP address.

You can check for notifications regarding points nearing expiration on the "My Points" page of your account at any time to ensure you don't miss out on benefits.

Multiple Ways to Use Points: Direct Cash Deduction and Coupon Exchange

When buying items on IGGM, you can choose to use your accumulated points to directly offset the cash cost of your order or exchange them for significant discounts at IGGM Coupon Redemption Center. The choice is entirely yours!

Option A: Direct Cash Deduction at Checkout

On the checkout page, you can use the points in your account balance to reduce the cost of your current order. However, to maintain the integrity of the IGGM points system, the proportion of the order total that can be offset by points is directly linked to your order subtotal.

Please refer to the table below for specific deduction ratios based on order subtotal ranges:

Important notes on using points for cash deductions:

1. Points are awarded only for successfully completed orders; orders that are voluntarily cancelled, flagged for suspected fraud, or fully refunded are not eligible for points;
2. Points for your first order are not credited immediately; they will be issued within 24 hours after successful delivery, provided no refund has occurred;
3. If an order involving points undergoes a partial refund, the system will deduct the corresponding points (rounded based on the refund amount) and return any points that were consumed. Returned Consumed Points = Consumed Points × (Refund Amount / Subtotal Amount);
4. Points can be used in conjunction with VIP discounts;
5. Cannot be used in conjunction with discount codes or cash coupons;
6. Cannot be exchanged for cash;
7. Cannot be withdrawn as cash;
8. Cannot be transferred between accounts;
9. IGGM.com reserves the right of final interpretation for all points-related policies.

Option B: Redeem Discount Codes or Cash Coupons

You can also visit the points redemption page to exchange points (in tiers ranging from 100 to 500 points) for discount codes (various rates) or cash coupons (subject to minimum order requirements). For example, the $10 cash coupon can only be used if your order's subtotal amount is $95 or more. If your subtotal is less than $95, the coupon will not automatically appear at checkout.

All discount codes and cash coupons are limited to 30 per week, first come, first served! Different colors clearly indicate the current stock status: green for 21-30 remaining, orange for 11-20, and red for 1-10. When stock reaches zero, it will display "Out of stock." But don't worry, just come back next week!

By the way, if you forget to check in for the day, the little rocket emoji on this coupon page is your quick way to do so! With a simple tap, a shake of the little rocket, and your points are in the bag!

While coupons are great, please keep in mind that all discount codes or cash coupons are valid for only 3 days. Redeem them carefully and ensure the items you wish to buy are in stock to avoid wasting your points.

You can view your coupons and their current expiration status on the My Account → My Coupons page.

Note: You can quickly access the coupon redemption page via the "Coupon Center" at the bottom of the IGGM homepage. We recommend bookmarking this page for convenient future check-ins and redemptions - saving you time and effort.

Notes on Points Redemption Coupons:

1. Only registered IGGM users are eligible to participate in points redemption.
2. Each reward is limited to the first 30 users per week on a first-come, first-served basis.
3. All discount codes and cash coupons require CF verification upon redemption.
4. Redeemed discount codes/cash coupons are valid for 3 days from the time of claim.
5. Only one discount code/cash coupon can be used per order. They cannot be combined with VIP discounts or points deductions.
6. Discount codes/cash coupons are not valid for gift cards and top-up services.
7. Redeemed discount codes, cash coupons and free orders cannot be returned or exchanged once claimed.
8. IGGM.com reserves the right of final interpretation.

Hidden Option C: Direct Exchange for In-Game Currency/Items (Coming Soon)

In addition to coupons, IGGM will soon add options to the redemption page allowing you to exchange points directly for specific in-game items, such as Monopoly GO cards, Diablo 4 materials, or POE 1/2 currency.

Once you meet the points requirements and click to redeem, a pop-up window will prompt you to enter the necessary delivery details for the game. After accurately filling in the information and completing the verification, the system will automatically generate a free order and display it in Coupon Order list; you just need to wait for it to be delivered safely. More point redemption features and options are coming soon - stay tuned!

If you encounter errors during the redemption verification process, please check your network connection and try again using a reliable VPN.

Furthermore, given the nature of virtual items, returns or exchanges are not possible once an order begins processing; however, if delivery fails due to issues on the IGGM platform, the points used will be fully refunded.

VIP Ranks & Benefits

For VIP members, IGGM offers tiered discounts to all users based on accumulated spending. Once your cumulative spending hits a specific threshold, you automatically unlock a permanent VIP discount:

VIP 1: Your Spending (<$1,000), Get a 1% discount.

VIP 2: Your Spending (≥ $1,000 and < $3,000) , Get a 2% discount.

VIP 3: Your Spending (≥ $3,000 and < $6,000), Get a 3% discount.

VIP 4: Your Spending (≥ $6,000 and < $10,000), Get a 4% discount.

VIP 5: Your Spending (≥$10,000), Get a 5% discount.

Discount Stacking Rules:

• VIP Discounts CAN be combined with Points Deductions.
• VIP Discounts CANNOT be stacked with Discount Codes or Cash Coupons.

At checkout, you may apply either:

• Option A: Discount Code or Cash Coupon (Alone)
• Option B: VIP Discount + Points Deduction (Note: Discount Codes and Cash Coupons are not valid for Gift Cards or Top-up services.)

Stacking Discounts and Maximizing Savings

How can you get the most savings when checking out? IGGM has designed a smart checkout system based on our VIP ranks and point-redemption rules.

At IGGM, VIP discounts stack perfectly with direct point deductions. However, please note that redeemed discount codes or cash coupons cannot be combined with VIP discounts or point deductions. Additionally, only one coupons may be used per order.

At checkout, the system automatically compares the final costs of "Option 1 (VIP Benefits + Direct Point Deduction)" and "Option 2 (Single Discount Codes or Cash Coupons)" to select the most cost-effective choice for you, saving you the trouble of manual calculations. Which option offers the best deal will be displayed next to that option (Best Value). Of course, if you have your own preferences regarding coupon and point usage, you are free to select your preferred discount method.

Refunds and Point Returns

IGGM's refund policy allows you to request a refund at any time prior to the completion of delivery. However, we have specific rules regarding the refund and rebate of your points in this situation:

Situation 1: Full Refund

If you cancel your order for personal reasons, orders suspected of fraud or requiring a full refund will not be awarded points; furthermore, points already used in such orders will not be refunded.

However, if a full refund is issued due to reasons attributable to IGGM, the points consumed for the order will be fully refunded to your account.

Situation 2: Partial Refund

If an order involving awarded points undergoes a partial refund due to special circumstances, the system will refund a portion of the consumed points on a pro-rata basis relative to the refund amount. Naturally, the points rebate you would have originally received upon order completion will also be adjusted; the corresponding points will be deducted based on the refund amount, with the figure rounded to the nearest whole number.

Here is the formula for calculating point returns during a refund:

• Returned Consumed Points = Consumed Points × (Refund Amount / Subtotal Amount)
• Deducted Earned Points = Subtotal Amount - Refund Amount (rounded to the nearest whole number)

The all-new IGGM member point system is designed to offer you more viable discount options for your long-term gaming purchases. Every point accumulated is a sincere token of our appreciation for your support.

Frequently Asked Questions about IGGM Points System

Q1: Can I transfer my VIP 5 perks from my old account to a newly created account and start accumulating check-in points there?

A: No. To ensure account security and platform fairness, VIP tiers and points are treated as exclusive assets of an individual account. According to our system security rules, transferring, merging, or gifting perks across different accounts is strictly unsupported.

Q2: My account currently has 277 points. If I buy items worth $34.68 and use up all my points to get a $2.77 deduction, but later receive a partial refund of $15.44 due to certain factors, how many points will I end up with?

A: Your original $34.68 order generates 35 points based on rounding. Due to the partial refund of $15.44, the system will proportionately deduct 15 points (rounded to the nearest whole number). Therefore, the net points earned from this purchase will be: 35 - 15 = 20 points. Additionally, the system will return the points you consumed. Based on the calculation formula: Consumed Points × (Refund Amount / Total Purchase Amount), you will get back 123 points. As a result, your final account balance will be 123 + 20 = 143 points.

Q3: Can I create unlimited new IGGM accounts and place small orders to exploit the 10x points newcomer reward?

A: No. IGGM strictly prohibits the malicious registration of multiple accounts, utilizing technical exploits, or engaging in order manipulation to farm newcomer benefits. Our system is equipped with rigorous anti-fraud and risk control mechanisms: the 10x points multiplier for the first order will only be credited after the order is successfully delivered and passes a 24-hour anti-abuse system review. If the risk control system detects multi-account farming linked by the same IP, same device, same payment method, or malicious account associations, the platform reserves the right to permanently ban the related accounts and clear all accrued benefits.

Q4: I just registered an account and my first order was a small item for $0.9. Because it was under $1, the system didn't give me any points. Then, my second order was for $100. Why didn't my second order get the 10x points? My first order didn't receive any points anyway, shouldn't this second order count as my actual "valid first order"?

A: No. The system strictly identifies the "New User First Order" based on the very first paid order under your account, regardless of the transaction amount. The threshold ruling out points for subtotals under $1 is a foundational platform policy. Therefore, we highly recommend that new users consolidate their shopping carts on their first purchase and bundle higher-value items into the first order to fully maximize the value of the 10x points perk.

Q5: If a website error prevents me from checking in for the day, causing my check-in streak to break, what measures will IGGM take to compensate for my points loss?

A: We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. The daily check-in resets based on a specific time matching the server's time zone. If the streak is broken due to network latency or missing the refresh window, the system will strictly execute the automatic reset policy. We recommend completing your check-in as early as possible each day and ensuring a stable network environment. If the interruption is conclusively caused by a large-scale server outage on the platform, an official site-wide points compensation announcement will be issued once resolved. Please note that support agents do not have the authorization to manually alter individual check-in histories. Thank you for your understanding.

Q6: I spent 300 points to redeem a $5 cash coupon, but the game items I wanted have been out of stock on the platform for the past few days. As a result, the coupon expired within 3 days without being used. The stockout is the platform's issue, so why should my 300 points be deducted for nothing?

A: We apologize, but once a reward is redeemed at the Rewards Center, the corresponding points will be deducted and cannot be refunded. Because each reward is strictly limited to the first 30 users per week on a first-come, first-served basis, and the cash coupons are valid for 3 days, we highly recommend verifying current product stock and your purchase intent before making a redemption to avoid accidental cash coupon expiration.

Q7: Can I still request a refund if my order status is "Completed"? Can the points be refunded?

A: If IGGM has successfully completed the delivery and you have confirmed the order's completion, we unfortunately cannot honor refund requests. The points spent will not be returned. However, if IGGM fails to complete the service due to our own issues (for example, if Tycoon Racers carry service fails to help you achieve Rank #1), we will refund the points you spent according to the refund ratio.

Q8: Why do I keep encountering errors when trying to redeem a coupon?

A: Coupon redemption errors typically occur due to network instability or system security protocols. Your IP address might be flagged as originating from a high-risk region. We recommend adjusting your VPN settings or connecting to a different network, then trying again. If the issue persists, please reach out to our 24/7 Customer Support team for further assistance.

Q9: Can I use a script or plug-in to claim the weekly limited 30 discount codes/cash coupons available each week?

A: To ensure fairness for all players, we have implemented strict security measures. Redeeming any discount codes or cash coupons requires passing verification, rendering any script-based simulated clicks ineffective. IGGM reserves the right to void coupons and impose account restrictions on any account found using irregular methods (such as multi-instance farming, emulators, or third-party software) to forcibly claim coupons.

Q10: If I use points to offset the cost but later receive a refund due to special circumstances, will the validity period of the returned points be extended?

A: No. Returned points retain their original acquisition date and continue to follow the 90-day expiration rule; the IGGM platform will not reset or extend the expiration date due to a refund. Please use the returned points as soon as possible to avoid expiration!

In the just-concluded game between Boston Red Sox and Toronto Blue Jays, Boston Red Sox scored 7 runs, while Toronto Blue Jays suffered a shutout. Frankly, there is a clear difference in strength between the two teams, but it's not quite a case of one being a strong team and the other a weak team.

Moreover, before this 7-0 game, Toronto had won three consecutive games against Boston, including 2-1, 5-3, and 6-4. This means that Boston didn't completely dominate in their head-to-head matchups. Why did the same team win the first three games but fail to score a single point in the fourth?

Even more interestingly, the 7-0 score was only 1-0 until the eighth inning. This means that the Blue Jays weren't overwhelmed by Boston from the very first point, but rather, in an extremely close game, they first lost patience on offense and then collapsed in the bullpen.

In other words, Blue Jays weren't without opportunities, but where exactly did they go wrong? If this game were played in MLB The Show 26, how could their tactics be changed to alter the outcome?

Mistake 1: Inability to generate consistent offense

Toronto only managed 2 hits in this game, while Boston had 10. Toronto's success in the first three games stemmed from their ability to convert limited on-base opportunities into consistent offense; however, against Payton Tolle on August 13th, they completely failed to do so.

Tolle pitched 8 innings, allowing only 2 hits and no walks, and retiring the last 17 batters. Toronto's problem wasn't just Tolle's excellent form, but their lack of patience in dealing with him, their failure to increase their pitching tally, and their inability to consistently get batters on base.

In the context of MLB The Show 26, this is a classic example of a problem with plate discipline. Against a pitcher like Tolle in peak form, a more reasonable approach would be:

• In the first two rounds, focus on observing the pitch and minimizing swings. Observe where his four-seams, changeup, and slider tend to land.
• Don't chase corner pitches before two strikes; wait for your more comfortable pitches.
• Hit more foul balls and extend the at-bat as much as possible to wear down the pitcher.
• Once the pitcher starts to tire, actively increase your swing to create scoring opportunities.

High-level hitting isn't about swinging every good pitch; it's about only hitting the pitches you most want to hit. One of Toronto's problems in this game was their lack of patience in wearing down Tolle's stamina and form, allowing him to pitch at his most comfortable pace and easily control the game.

Of course, to truly execute this strategy in the game, besides adjusting your own hitting habits, lineup strength is equally important. Better hitters provide higher contact, power, and vision, giving you more room for error. If needed, you can buy MLB The Show 26 stubs at IGGM.com to quickly improve your offense from a roster perspective.

Additionally, you can register and log in to your IGGM account to participate in daily check-ins and earn points, which can be redeemed for IGGM Coupon, allowing you to acquire stubs at a lower price.

Mistake 2: Changing pitchers too early

Looking only at the final score, it's easy to blame everything on Max Scherzer. In reality, Scherzer wasn't as bad as it seems. He pitched 5 innings, allowing only 1 run, 3 hits, and 2 walks.

That means Toronto was only down by 1 run at the end of the fifth inning. Boston even loaded the bases in the fourth inning but ultimately failed to score. If Toronto had capitalized on that opportunity to score a run, the game could have been completely different.

In MLB The Show 26, if the score is 0-1 at the end of the fifth inning, there's no need to rush to change pitchers. As long as Scherzer's stamina and pitching form are still acceptable, he should continue pitching, rather than prematurely using the bullpen simply to find a more physically fit pitcher.

Offensively, don't rush to hit home runs. Focus on getting on base first, even just a walk or a single could potentially turn the tide at 1-0.

Baserunning and defense should be more conservative. Don't attempt to steal bases to gain an extra run, and don't risk getting an out. A 1-0 lead is actually very close. A single well-timed opportunity can change the game immediately.

The real problem was that Toronto failed to maintain a low score after Scherzer was taken out. Once the game entered the bullpen, Boston started creating scoring opportunities, quickly widening the one-run gap, and Toronto lost their chance to come back.

Mistake 3: Failure to mitigate losses after a pitching change in the eighth inning

At the start of the eighth inning, Toronto brought in Chase Lee, but Boston quickly ran into runners. Then, with one out and runners on third through first, Durbin hit a grand slam, scoring four runs and turning the score from 1-0 to 5-0. Durbin finished the game with 3 hits and 5 RBIs.

In MLB The Show 26, this would have been a clear opportunity for a pitching change. Assuming Chase Lee was fatigued and lacked a pitching advantage against right-handed batters, and Boston's batters had faced him repeatedly and were familiar with his pitches, a change should have been considered once runners reached base.

In real games, coaches can't see all the real-time data like gamers; however, in MLB 26, players have much more real-time information. Therefore, the key to bullpen management is to mitigate losses before the game spirals out of control.

If you're building your roster in Diamond Dynasty, participate in IGGM MLB The Show 26 stubs giveaways on Discord. We'll randomly select 10 players to share 10,000 stubs! This might be a great opportunity for you to add stubs and improve your roster.

Therefore, this 7-0 sweep cannot be simply interpreted as Boston's overwhelming strength. What Toronto truly lost was a low-scoring game they could have won: failing to connect their limited base-running opportunities in the first half and failing to stop losses when the bullpen showed signs of trouble in the second half.

If you're moving into MLB The Show 26, the core strategy for turning the tide is actually quite simple: patience in the early game, judgment in the mid-game, and loss-cutting in the late game. Not every game requires aggressive offense; sometimes the best tactic is to drag out the game and wait for the opponent to make a mistake.

In Diablo 4 Season 14, rings are an extremely important equipment slot. Aside from weapons, rings are another type of gear that can significantly increase your damage.

Rings are primarily responsible for boosting core damage, restoring resources, and providing other important effects rather than simply adding basic stats. Let's take a look at how to obtain a top-tier ring base like Odd Band and turn it into a powerful endgame ring.

Affix Selection

Before you start crafting an endgame ring, you first need to understand which combination of affixes is the most broadly useful for most builds. In Diablo 4 Season 14 Vulnerable Damage and Critical Strike are useful for most builds, but if you are playing a Damage over Time build, they can be replaced with bonuses that increase Damage over Time.

The following affixes are useful for almost all mainstream builds:

• Vulnerable Damage.
• Attack Speed.
• Main Stat.
• HP / Maximum Life.
• Cooldown Reduction.
• Resource Generation or Cost Reduction.

It is worth noting that the names of Rare items are randomly generated from a huge pool based on the item type. The name is simply a system-generated label and has no effect on the item's actual stats. For example, a ring named Odd Band can roll any combination of affixes.

Choosing a Base

If you want to build a ring from scratch, choosing a good base is extremely important. The higher the ring's Item Power, the better, because this increases the potential values of its affixes and the chance of obtaining Greater Affixes.

When you first reach Level 70 in Diablo 4, the entire gearing system undergoes a fundamental change. There is no longer any need to focus on low-Item-Power gear, because from this point onward, all dropped rings have a standardized Item Power of 850.

Ancestral rings only drop on Torment II and higher difficulties. Ancestral rings can reach a maximum Item Power of 900, which is also the highest Item Power available for any item. It cannot be exceeded under any circumstances.

Keep in mind that Ancestral quality does not guarantee a ring will have Greater Affixes. An item can have 900 Item Power without any Greater Affixes at all. However, a ring with 900 Item Power and 2–3 Greater Affixes is generally considered one of the best bases.

Of course, not every Greater Affix will necessarily be useful for your build, so some further work is still required. If you need a good ring base, you can buy Diablo 4 Odd Band at IGGM.com. We also have other high-quality ring bases available, allowing you to choose the one that best suits your needs and save time.

Also, if you're a registered user, don't forget to participate in IGGM check-in to earn points. You can use these points to get discounts in Odd Band trading.

How to Farm Rare Ring Bases?

Unlocking Torment I is only the beginning in Diablo 4. As you progress into higher Torment tiers, the drop rate of Ancestral gear increases significantly, while the efficiency of obtaining various resources, materials, and specific Aspects also improves.

Once you are comfortable farming at an appropriate Torment difficulty, the following activities will become your main sources of gear. They can provide a steady supply of Ancestral items, and some even allow you to target specific equipment slots.

Infernal Hordes

This is one of the best ways to consistently obtain Ancestral gear in Diablo 4. Use Infernal Hordes Compasses to start the event, and when the final rewards become available, make the Equipment Chest your top priority. It does not guarantee Greater Affixes, but it does guarantee equipment with 900 Item Power.

Murmuring Obols

This is a good way to target specific equipment slots. Curiosities offered by Purveyor of Curiosities have a chance to produce Ancestral gear. You can spend your Obols exclusively on rings, giving you a chance to obtain either Ancestral Unique Rings or Ancestral Rare Rings.

When making these exchanges, always switch to the highest Torment difficulty you can handle. Otherwise, if you make the exchange on a lower difficulty, you may receive low-Item-Power rings even if you have access to Torment IV.

Kurast Undercity

Using Tributes of Armament for an Undercity run guarantees Ancestral Legendary gear. Higher-tier Tributes can even guarantee Mythic-quality gear.

Escalating Nightmare Dungeons

For regular Nightmare Dungeons, prioritize Sigils with Equipment Delve affix. Elite monsters in these dungeons have a higher chance of dropping equipment.

Escalating Nightmare Dungeons are more efficient for both gear and resources such as gold, materials, and Gems, providing better overall drop efficiency in Diablo 4.

Helltides

Helltides are a classic and long-standing farming activity. By collecting Cinders, you can open different types of Tortured Gifts chests.

You can use different slot-specific chests to target rings. Again, remember to always open the chests at the highest Torment difficulty you can handle to obtain the best possible rewards.

Whisper Caches

You can complete Grim Favors activities throughout the world to accumulate progress and then exchange that progress for a cache. This is a well-rounded source of gear, materials, and Aspects.

You can quickly complete certain activities on a lower difficulty, including boss activities that award 5 Grim Favors, and then switch back to your highest Torment difficulty before turning in the progress. The quality of the cache rewards is determined by the difficulty at the time you turn in Grim Favors, while the activities themselves can be completed at any difficulty.

Crafting the Ring

Once you have successfully obtained a Odd Band with satisfactory Greater Affixes, you can begin crafting it. You can first use Masterworking on the ring. As long as you successfully strengthen the Greater Affix you need most, the result is worthwhile.

Next, use Tempering to add a temporary Tempered Affix to the ring, again selecting the effect you need. Then use Imprinting to apply Aspect you want.

If you lack materials when crafting rings, you can join IGGM Diablo 4 Facebook Group. Participating in the giveaway gives you a chance to obtain Corrupted Roots for free, which can improve your farming efficiency.

If you enjoy crafting your own gear in Diablo 4 Season 14, try to choose a base with at least 900 Item Power and at least 1 Greater Affix. Remember not to get overly greedy. Know when to stop so you can avoid wasting materials.

The launch of Path of Exile 2 Patch 0.5.0 introduced numerous new mechanics, such as Verisium Runeforging, which enhances your armor, specifically by adding Runic Ward as an extra layer of defense.

However, classic defensive stats, such as resistances, should not be overlooked. In fact, their importance remains paramount, even compared to these newly added features.

With the upcoming Patch 0.5.5 and its new mini-league on the horizon, how can you leverage these long-standing defensive stats to improve your combat experience? Here, we take Resistances as an example to explain.

How do resistances work?

Strictly speaking, resistances are not a primary form of defense in the same way that armor, evasion, energy shield, and more.

Instead, resistances only come into play when you take elemental or chaos damage. For instance, if you have 50% Fire Resistance and take 100 points of fire damage, you will ultimately take only 50 points of damage.

While enemies during the campaign phase primarily deal physical damage, which can be mitigated through standard defensive means, you will occasionally encounter foes that deal elemental damage. Once you reach the mapping phase, however, elemental and chaos damage become much more frequent.

Therefore, securing sufficient resistances is crucial for long-term survival in Path of Exile 2, as it ensures a reduction in the damage you sustain.

In the game, resistances are primarily derived from your gear. While the default cap for resistances is usually 75%, you can buy PoE 2 currency on IGGM.com and use it to reroll your gear's modifiers.

Through repeated rerolling, you can boost your resistance values to a maximum of around 90%. However, your resistances can also drop significantly if you are affected by debuffs during combat or if your gear's base item is of poor quality.

Thus, acquiring currency is essential not only for rerolling modifiers but also for trading for superior gear bases on the market. If your current budget doesn't allow you to acquire enough currency to meet both needs, IGGM points system offers an alternative solution.

By registering, logging in, and checking in daily, you can accumulate points. You can later use your points to redeem discount codes and cash coupons, or apply them directly as a cash offset on future orders!

Why max out resistances?

You might think that if your gear provides 50% resistance, the effect is already decent enough, so why expend extra effort to boost it further?

On one hand, when facing powerful endgame enemies or bosses, minimizing potential elemental damage is essential; on the other, it comes down to the specific damage calculation mechanics in Path of Exile 2.

If you have 75% resistance and take a hit of 100 damage, the actual damage sustained is 25, meaning you lose 25 health points. If you only have 50% resistance, you would take 50 damage.

Although it might not be immediately obvious, this effectively doubles the damage you take. Therefore, keeping your resistances at the cap is crucial; otherwise, you risk having your health bar instantly wiped out in the endgame.

This is because when balancing the game, developers assume all players have reached the resistance cap based on this calculation mechanism. To avoid taking massive damage, you must prioritize maxing out your resistances as early as possible.

Chaos resistance is not a priority

As mentioned earlier, the key to handling resistances in PoE 2 is to max them out. However, achieving this is tricky; there are many damage types involving resistance mechanics, and maxing out every single one requires a huge investment of time and resources.

Consequently, you need to make trade-offs, such as cutting corners on chaos resistance. While chaos damage is difficult to mitigate, it occurs much less frequently. As long as you make an effort to avoid enemies that deal chaos damage, you should be fine.

Furthermore, chaos resistance is the hardest to stack. To obtain chaos resistance on a piece of gear, that item must meet a specific item level requirement.

Additionally, the elemental resistance values rolled on a piece of gear are typically around double those of chaos resistance.

While this isn't an absolute rule, it is an undeniable fact that the base values for chaos resistance are consistently lower. However, if you have plenty of gear, you can try crafting some of it to better handle enemies that deal chaos damage.

It is also a safer bet to do this now, as participating in IGGM PoE 1+2 currency giveaways on Facebook Group gives you a chance to win Mirror of Kalandra for your PoE 2 character, allowing you to duplicate and preserve items you might otherwise be afraid to risk during crafting.

How to overcome enemy resistance?

In Path of Exile 2, resistances aren't just stats for player characters; enemies have them too, and special map modifiers can even boost specific enemy resistance values.

If you cannot lower or shred enemy resistances through specific means, your battles will take longer, and your failure rate will rise. This is why penetration is a key mechanic to prioritize.

For instance, if you have 50% Fire Penetration and a monster has 50% Fire Resistance, that penetration effectively negates that portion of the enemy's resistance.

Penetration is excellent because it is relatively easy to acquire and, unlike some other mechanics, doesn't require active management or constant attention; it works quietly in the background as a static mechanic.

However, beyond simply negating resistance, effects like Curses and Exposure, along with certain support gems, can actually lower the resistance value itself.

Suppose an enemy has 50% fire resistance. If your combined Curses and Exposure effects reduce Fire Resistance by 75%, the enemy's resistance drops to -25%.

This not only means you can finish battles faster, but your damage output also increases by 25%. Therefore, if you want to quickly take down tough foes, driving their resistance into negative values is crucial.

While the concepts covered here might seem basic, they play a vital role in maximizing your damage output and survivability as you progress through Path of Exile 2. Make sure to master these tips!

Evolutions are undoubtedly one of the biggest additions to Madden NFL 27 Ultimate Team, and they work very differently from Evolutions in EA FC series, leaving many players confused.

With that in mind, let's take a look at the basic mechanics, process, and key tips for the system so that you can get the most out of this powerful feature as quickly as possible.

Evolution Store

Evolution Store is located under Marketplace and My Team tabs. It has three blocks:

• Evo Available: This section contains various Evolution options, divided by position. They require Madden NFL 27 coins or Madden Points to unlock.
• Evo Effect: This section shows the specific effects of each Evo. For example, a Tight End rated 70-81 OVR can be converted into Vertical Threat archetype, with the OVR increasing to a maximum of 82.
• Available Players: This section lets you directly browse the players who can receive the selected Evo.

Evo Rules

Most EVOs are single-use. Once an Evo has been applied to a player, it cannot be removed and transferred to another player. Some EVOs offer a Remove EVO option, but this also comes with a coins cost.

However, there is a workaround. If you no longer want a player to have a particular Evo, you can Auction or Quick Sell the player.

Only the base card is returned rather than the evolved version with its upgraded attributes. EVO will then reappear in Storefront, allowing you to acquire it again and apply it to a new player.

This means Madden NFL 27 coins or Madden Points must be used again each time you transfer an EVO. This method currently works, but if the official team considers it an unintended exploit, a future patch could potentially prevent players from using it this way.

If you want to try building a top-tier EVO player, you can buy Madden NFL 27 coins at IGGM.com, and This allows you to keep trying.

Upgrade Path Preview

Before applying an EVO, it is strongly recommended to use Upgrade Path Preview. This lets you see in advance how Primary Attributes and Secondary Attributes may be affected.

For example, for a Linebacker, Speed, Man Coverage, and Zone Coverage are key attributes, while Run Stopper archetype places greater emphasis on Hit Power, Block Shedding, and Play Recognition.

When you have multiple archetypes to choose from, always prioritize the attributes you value most in Primary Attributes section.

Skill Point Allocation

Different EVOS provide Skill Points in different ways. Blueprint EVOs only require you to win games to earn Skill Points, and much of the progress is already tracked before EVO is acquired.

Ultimate Team Captain EVOs, on the other hand, require specific objectives, such as recording tackles or sacks while the player is on the field, or allowing fewer than 14 points in a single game.

Skill Points are tied to the player. If you switch captains, the new captain will have an entirely new set of objectives, but the existing Skill Points will remain available when you reactivate the original captain.

Evo Tips

When you want to significantly increase a player's OVR, it is recommended to upgrade only two or three levels at first and observe how the attributes change. If the resulting attributes are desirable, you can continue upgrading gradually.

If you are not satisfied, resetting EVO will cost considerably fewer MUT 27 coins because only a small number of levels have been upgraded.

Never upgrade an EVO to the maximum level all at once, as the reset cost can increase significantly. Those EVO cards with top-tier attributes seen in the community may have required an astronomical amount of coins investment behind the scenes, so make sure to stay within your limits.

Season Field Pass Evo

Madden NFL 27 is currently in Season 1. The official team does not appear to have made any substantial changes to the upgrade system for Season players.

Most Season players obtained through Season Field Pass do not offer particularly high upgrade potential. Although these cards are not technically Evolution cards, their upgrade mechanics work in a similar way.

As the Field Pass level increases, each level awards a certain number of Season Tickets. If you unlock Premium Pass, each level also provides additional rewards. At certain levels, such as Level 20, the reward can even be tripled, with all of it consisting of Season Tickets.

Field Pass provides a Welcome Pack when it is first introduced, while Fantasy Packs are also awarded at Levels 6, 16, 26, and 36,

Currently, these are 80 OVR BND Fantasy Packs, allowing you to choose one player from five upgradeable options.

Unlike the previous game, Madden 27 does not allow upgrade tokens already invested in a player to be withdrawn and transferred to another player from the same season. This is a significant drawback.

If you are not satisfied with the upgrade result, you can try a Reroll, but this also requires coins. After a reset, all invested Skill Points are returned in full.

However, the upgrade attributes for each card are randomized. The smart approach is the same as the tip above: upgrade only one or two levels first, then check whether the affected attributes match your needs. If they do not, reset the card at a lower cost.

Evolution card system is a highly promising new mechanic in Madden 27. It can be used to upgrade players who normally would not receive cards with high attributes or to maintain players for a specific theme team, but do not waste too many coins in pursuit of a perfect EVO.

Following the launch of Happy Harvest with Looney Tunes album in Monopoly Go, many players complained that the gameplay and rewards lacked depth, especially when compared to the previous The Simpsons album.

To address this, Monopoly Go has introduced the new Peg-E Community Deluxe Drop event, offering up to eight collectible rewards to beef up your inventory! Be aware that once this event ends, these rewards will be difficult to obtain again.

If you are a player who loves collecting in-game items alongside Monopoly Go stickers, make sure to read the guide below carefully and complete this round of Deluxe Drop!

Community Deluxe Drop duration

This Deluxe Drop event began on August 12 at 4:00 PM ET and runs until August 14 at 1:00 PM ET, totaling 45 hours, roughly the same duration as a standard solo event.

Although this is a special Monopoly Go event, all Peg-E events (including Deluxe Drop) are solo-based, which explains the shorter duration. If you haven't started yet or are lagging behind, be sure to pick up the pace.

How does Deluxe Drop work?

At the start of the event, you are presented with a Pachinko-style machine featuring five drop slots at the top.

After selecting a slot, insert Monopoly Go Peg-E tokens you've earned and tap to drop them. The tokens will bounce randomly as they fall through the machine, eventually landing in scoring slots at the bottom.

Slots closer to the center yield more points, while those toward the outer edges yield fewer. As you accumulate points and unlock all the milestone rewards for Deluxe Drop Level 1, you will unlock Level 2. Each level features four rewards.

As the tokens fall, they may hit two bumpers located in the center of the machine. Hitting these fills a special progress bar; once full, it triggers an extra reward and resets the bar for the next stage.

What are the rewards?

Monopoly Go Community Deluxe Drop rewards consist primarily of collectibles such as shield skins and dice skins.

While the point requirements for Level 1 are generally steeper, unlocking all its rewards opens the door to Level 2, which offers more generous rewards and a more relaxed pace:

How to earn Peg-E tokens?

Unlocking all milestone rewards requires a massive number of tokens. Therefore, it is crucial to take advantage of every source that drops Peg-E tokens.

Daily events

During Monopoly Go Deluxe Drop, standard daily events: tournaments, and banner events will continue as usual, refreshing every one and two days, respectively.

This means that during this Deluxe Drop, there will be at least two tournaments and one banner event to participate in, all offering Peg-E tokens as rewards.

We already know that the tournament and Sprout Science banner event launching on August 12 (ET) will provide 660 and 500 tokens, respectively. A new tournament expected to start on the afternoon of the 13th is also projected to offer 500 tokens.

Participation in both types of events is similar: you consume dice to move across the board and land on specific tiles to earn points that advance your milestone progress. The only difference is that tournaments require you to play an additional mini-game after landing on a tile.

In addition to Peg-E tokens, these events reward sticker packs. However, the odds of pulling rare stickers are low, you're better off participating in IGGM Monopoly Go Facebook Group sticker giveaways for a chance to win two selectable 4-star stickers!

Quick Wins tasks

Three Quick Wins tasks refresh every morning in Monopoly Go; completing each one grants three types of rewards. Although the quantities are small, the tasks are very easy and shouldn't be missed.

For example, the three Quick Wins tasks on August 12 required rolling the dice once, playing a Bank Heist, and upgrading a Landmark.

If you had already participated in the day's daily events, you likely completed these tasks in the process. Together, these three tasks award a total of 15 Peg-E tokens.

Claiming shop gifts

Monopoly Go shop refreshes with a new gift every eight hours. During special events, the gift contents may include event-specific tokens.

During this Community Deluxe Drop, the gift is expected to refresh at least four or five times.

Be sure to claim them on time rather than letting them accumulate until the end; the game mechanics do not allow for stacking, regardless of how much time has passed, if you haven't claimed the gifts in between, you will only receive a single gift.

Collecting on the board

As you move across the board to complete daily events, you'll find Peg-E tokens scattered on certain tiles. Landing on these tiles allows you to collect the tokens immediately.

Optimal play strategy

Just like rolling dice, you can use multipliers when dropping Peg-E tokens. The multiplier affects not only your final score but also your progress toward hitting bumpers.

However, a higher multiplier isn't always better; it depends on your current token balance. For instance, if you have fewer than 100 tokens, it's best to keep the multiplier at 10 or lower.

Since token collisions and drops are random, being too aggressive can cause you to run out of tokens prematurely.

Additionally, when working on bumper progress, prioritize bumpers that offer dice or Peg-E tokens as rewards to create a cycle of token replenishment.

We hope this guide helps you win rewards in the current Monopoly Go Community Deluxe Drop event and expand your game collection!

Since this event doesn't offer sticker rewards, if you have long-standing gaps in your Happy Harvest with Looney Tunes album, consider choosing Monopoly Go stickers for sale on IGGM to fill them in.

Whether you're missing high-star cards or gold stickers, you can find exactly what you need. If you're on a budget, simply sign up, log in, and then earn points through IGGM check in, which can be redeemed for money-saving discount codes and cash coupons!

MLB The Show 26 will receive its next roster update this Friday, August 14. As always, some cards will receive rating adjustments, which can often create new investment opportunities.

Let’s take a look at which player cards are worth investing in, especially those with the potential to reach Diamond or see their value rise significantly.

Diamond-Tier Candidates

85 OVR Jeremy Peña | Houston Astros

Jeremy Peña had an outstanding July, hitting five home runs across six games from July 20 to 26. His performance earned him American League Player of the Week award for the first time in his career.

Peña has remained in strong form heading into August. On August 1 against the Rangers, he went 3-for-5 with three hits and three RBIs.

Jeremy Peña could receive significant upgrades to his Power against both sides, Contact, Vision, and Clutch attributes.

An increase to 87 or even 88 OVR is possible. This is more of a long-term investment, making Jeremy Peña a solid and reliable option.

84 OVR Drew Rasmussen | Tampa Bay Rays

Drew Rasmussen continues to get better. Since All-Star break, Rasmussen has won five straight games. During that stretch, he has pitched 30 innings with a 1.20 ERA, a 0.80 WHIP, 35 strikeouts, and only six walks.

He currently has an 84 OVR and a market value of around 2,500 MLB The Show 26 Stubs. An increase to 86 OVR is highly possible, which could mean roughly 1,200 Stubs of potential profit per card. That makes him a very worthwhile investment.

84 OVR Dillon Dingler | Detroit Tigers

Dillon Dingler can be considered one of the most underrated players in the league. His WAR this season is approaching 6.0, and he may be the best defensive catcher in the league behind only Patrick Bailey.

At the same time, his offensive production has also been excellent, with his home run total approaching 30. His hitting attributes are currently mostly in the 70s, leaving plenty of room for improvement. He is a very safe option, and even if he does not reach Diamond this update, he could still reach 87 or 88 OVR by the end of the season.

84 OVR Ceddanne Rafaela | Boston Red Sox

Ceddanne Rafaela has made progress with his swing. He is controlling the strike zone better and hitting the ball in a more complete way rather than simply looking for extra-base power.

In MLB The Show 26, this card has elite defense, but its hitting attributes are extremely poor, with both Contact and Power sitting at surprisingly low levels.

However, that also creates an advantage. If he performs well offensively and receives attribute boosts, his overall rating could rise much faster than that of other hitters. He has a strong chance of reaching 86 OVR.

84 OVR Fernando Tatis Jr. | San Diego Padres

Through his first 22 games after All-Star break, Fernando Tatis Jr. has hit .307 with six home runs, 19 RBIs, and 19 runs scored. His performance against right-handed pitchers has been particularly impressive.

He may not receive much of an upgrade against left-handed pitchers, but improvements to his attributes against right-handed pitching could be enough to push him to 85 or even 86 OVR. His current value is around 2,400 Stubs, so there is still room for growth.

Low-Risk, High-Reward Players

Besides the potential breakout candidates above, there are also several players with very low risk and strong upside if avoiding more volatile investments is the priority.

It’s not too late to invest! You can buy MLB The Show 26 stubs at IGGM.com as an investment fund; you won’t lose stubs even if the players listed below remain unchanged.

83 OVR Bryan Baker | Tampa Bay Rays

Bryan Baker has allowed almost no runs since May and was selected to his first All-Star game, so he’s likely to see a rating increase.

His current value is only around 1,300 Stubs. For players who recognize his potential, that is actually good news, making him an investment with very little downside.

82 OVR Troy Melton | Detroit Tigers

Troy Melton already rose from 79 to 82 OVR in the previous update. He currently has excellent strikeout ability and has been one of the best-performing pitchers in MLB this season.

The reason he has been overlooked is that he did not enter the regular rotation until May, preventing him from ranking at the top of several statistical categories. Since returning on May 24, his ERA ranks second in the league, behind only Jacob Misiorowski of Brewers.

He is one of the most attractive investment targets for this update and could even jump directly to Diamond.

In addition to investing in Troy Melton to earn stubs, you can also participate in IGGM MLB The Show 26 stubs Giveaways on Discord. 10 winners will share 10,000,000 stubs.

82 OVR Jesús Luzardo | Miami Marlins

Jesús Luzardo was selected to All-Star team this season. Although his performances have been inconsistent at times in the past, he has been in excellent form throughout August, delivering outstanding starts against Nationals and Blue Jays. Across those two starts, he pitched 15 innings, allowed only two runs, and recorded 19 strikeouts. His consistent performance should earn him a modest upgrade.

82 OVR Cade Smith | Cleveland Guardians

Cade Smith is another underrated reliever who has allowed only one run over the past few months and has been outstanding. His excellent performance in May helped him earn an All-Star selection.

His current market value is very low, making him an excellent low-risk investment. Even if he does not receive an upgrade, a significant drop is also highly unlikely, so there is little downside to holding him.

As the season progresses, MLB The Show 26’s official roster updates will place increasing emphasis on recent performance. Keep an eye on players’ statistics over the past 15 days to gauge whether they are likely to receive an upgrade.

ARC Raiders Frozen Trail is confirmed to launch on October 8, 2026. This isn't a small patch, but a major content update bringing many new features. So, let's get ready and acquire some more powerful weapons.

Torrente IV is a complete upgrade of Torrente light machine gun in ARC Raiders, belonging to Tier 4 weapon category. This rare (blue quality) weapon is renowned for its massive ammo capacity and powerful suppressive fire.

Torrente loadout, composed of Torrente IV, is incredibly powerful, enough to help you defeat even more enemies. This article will guide you on how to obtain Best Torrente loadout in ARC Raiders to help you upgrade your combat power.

Torrente Loadout Specifications and Performance

Torrente loadout consists of Torrente IV, Extended Barrel III, Extended Medium Magazine III, and Kinetic Converter. Its greatest strength lies in the balance between powerful firepower and high maneuverability. It has a 90-round magazine, a durability of 130/130, and weighs 12 kg.

Torrente loadout is designed for sustained fire, excelling particularly in close to medium-range engagements. Its high rate of fire (58.3) and moderate ARC armor penetration make it effective against both human players and ARC enemies.

However, players should note that this gun is only accurate when crouching. Standing or hip-firing results in significant bullet spread, meaning that effectively using Torrente loadout requires tactical movement and advantageous positioning, rather than assault firing.

How to Obtain It?

To obtain Torrente loadout, you must first have the basic Torrente. The methods for obtaining it are as follows:

Method One

The most direct but luck-dependent method is to find this weapon in raids. The game uses a random drop system, so Torrente won't necessarily appear in any specific location, but certain high-value areas are more likely to spawn this rare item. Based on our research, the following are some ARC Raider locations where Torrente LMGs are more likely to appear:

• Marano Station: This area has low risk and frequently drops high-level loot, including Torrente.
• South Swamp Outpost: Searching the various towers and weapon crates in this area greatly increases the chance of obtaining Torrente.
• Testing Annex: The first floor is a key location here; loot is usually hidden in rooms or behind furniture, such as the yellow sofa.
• Testing Annex: Focus on searching upstairs, near the spiral staircase, and the workbench where rare crates may spawn.

Method Two

Besides relying on direct drops, you can also obtain Torrente through crafting. However, before crafting it, you must first find its blueprint. While this is also a random drop, the probability of finding it is much higher than finding Torrente itself directly.

Torrente blueprints usually appear in medium-to-high risk areas and can be found in high-level loot crates. It is said that the chance of finding it is even higher during Electromagnetic Storms. Once you obtain the blueprint, you can craft Torrente I at a level 2 Gunsmith's Workbench.

Upgrade Path

ARC Raiders Torrente loadout is a modification of Torrente IV. Therefore, the next step is to upgrade your current Torrente I. You can upgrade three levels sequentially, as detailed below:

Upgrade to Torrente II

• Materials: 1x Advanced Mechanical Components, 2x Medium Gun Parts
• Stat Improvements: +10 Magazine Size, 15% Reduced Reload Time, +10 Durability

Upgrade to Torrente III

• Materials: 1x Advanced Mechanical Components, 2x Medium Gun Parts
• Stat Improvements: +20 Magazine Size, 30% Reduced Reload Time, +20 Durability

Upgrade to Torrente IV

• Materials: 2x Advanced Mechanical Components, 2x Medium Gun Parts
• Stat Improvements: +30 Magazine Size, 45% Reduced Reload Time, +30 Durability

Complete Upgrade from Torrente I to Torrente Torrente IV requires a total of 4 Advanced Mechanical Components and 9 Medium Gun Parts. While Torrente IV cannot be obtained directly from merchants, the materials needed to craft it, such as Advanced Mechanical Components, can be obtained through trade or rewards.

Modified Weapon Torrente Loadout

To obtain Torrente loadout, you need to craft it using Torrente IV, Extended Barrel III, Extended Medium Magazine III, and Kinetic Converter.

Extended Barrel III and Extended Medium Magazine III are primarily obtained through crafting. You need to obtain their blueprints first, and then craft them at a Tier 3 weapon crafting table.

The recipe for Extended Medium Magazine III is 2x Mod Components and 5x Steel Spring; the recipe for Extended Barrel III requires Wires.

Kinetic Converter is a legendary attachment in ARC Raiders. It increases the weapon's rate of fire by 15%, making it rarer and more difficult to obtain than the previous two attachments. This item cannot be crafted and can only be obtained through random drops.

First, I highly recommend heading to Launch Towers on Spaceport map, where high-level containers have a high chance of dropping legendary items. Next, you can loot Buried City map, ideally in Night Raid Map Condition, where the chance of obtaining a Kinetic Converter is even higher.

Finally, you can also consider Dam Battlegrounds; Research & Administration area on this map is a potentially popular location for high-value loot.

Once you have Torrente IV, Extended Barrel III, Extended Medium Magazine III, and a Kinetic Converter, you can craft Torrente loadout.

If you find this process too cumbersome, you can directly buy ARC Raiders Best Torrente loadout at IGGM.com. Alternatively, you can register and log in to your IGGM account to experience our newly launched points system. Earn points by participating in check-ins, and redeem points for IGGM coupons to directly deduct from your next order.

This concludes the article on how to obtain Torrente loadout in ARC Raiders. Although the method is somewhat complicated, you'll find it all worthwhile once you get it. What are you waiting for? Go and try it out!

August 12th marks a pivotal date for Helldivers 2 players in the latter half of the year. Not only has the long-awaited Warhammer 40K Legendary Warbond finally arrived, but Patch 7.0.0, which includes Devoid of Liberty update, has officially gone live!

This means you can not only acquire more weapons through the new Warbond but also test this gear in a brand-new combat environment while eliminating new enemy types to secure more loot.

So, what exactly does Devoid of Liberty update bring to Helldivers 2? Let's take a look.

A brand-new biome

In Helldivers 2, biomes determine the map generation for the planets you visit, encompassing details such as terrain, alien flora, and other geographical features.

Currently, Helldivers 2 biomes generally fall into two categories: those featuring geography familiar to Earth, such as swamps or deserts, and those based on unique cosmic phenomena or entirely fictional planets, like black holes or Hive Worlds.

The new biome introduced in Devoid of Liberty update stems from The Void, a cosmic anomaly discovered by Illuminate. It possesses the power to consume surrounding planets and even entire star systems.

While The Void is a naturally occurring phenomenon, Illuminate, a hostile faction opposing Super Earth, have harnessed it to create a sub-faction known as Vote Snatchers.

Consequently, part of the new mission objectives requires you to deploy to planets affected by The Void and eliminate the mutated enemies created by Illuminate within this unique biome.

What sets this biome apart from others is that, beyond the dangers posed by the terrain and enemies, you must remain constantly vigilant against potential space-time anomalies and fluctuations; a moment of carelessness could cost you your life.

Two new enemy types

Stemming from Vote Snatchers, Devoid of Liberty update introduces the first two enemy variants: The Wretch and The Crusher.

The Wretch is an incredibly agile and swift monster equipped with scissor-like limbs; it appears to be a mutation of Illuminate's Voteless units.

While their individual strength isn't exceptional, they almost always appear in groups of five or six; therefore, teaming up with other players is the best strategy, otherwise, retreating as quickly as possible is the wisest course of action.

In fact, even when in a squad, you and your teammates should avoid combat whenever possible. You might be capable of eliminating them, but getting bogged down in a fight could prove counterproductive when tackling time-sensitive missions.

If The Wretch in Helldivers 2 is already a nuisance, then, unfortunately, The Crusher is even more troublesome! They are larger and possess an incredibly annoying self-regeneration ability.

The only saving grace is that The Crusher moves very slowly; however, if they do catch up to you, they will swing their heavy clubs with devastating force. Unless you are extremely lucky, a single hit is almost certainly fatal.

If you are forced to engage a Crusher, be sure to maintain a safe distance and unleash maximum firepower until they are completely destroyed. In short: if you decide to fight, you must go all out.

New missions centered on Illuminate

Whether it involves traveling to The Void or facing newly emerged enemies, Illuminate faction is ultimately behind it all. Consequently, the primary objective in this Helldivers 2 update is to infiltrate Illuminate territory and destroy their various facilities and portals.

Naturally, this takes place within a new biome, and you will frequently encounter the two new enemy types. However, you can also scavenge for loot and locate additional extraction points to facilitate future battles.

Assistance from SEAF

To help you better handle these new enemies and challenges, Helldivers 2 Devoid of Liberty update allows SEAF forces to fight alongside you as a planetary modifier and boosts your combat capabilities with new gear.

Beyond combat support, the game allows you to share hugs with members of the support units. If you are injured, SEAF personnel will also treat your wounds using a wide array of medical supplies.

More content in Patch 7.0.0

The above details the new content introduced by Devoid of Liberty update; however, this update is just one part of Helldivers 2 Patch 7.0.0, which brings a host of other changes to the game as well.

Many of these changes had been previously announced but are finally being implemented now. Examples include raising the character level cap from 150 to 300 and the launch of Warhammer 40K Castellan's Creed Legendary Warbond.

As it stands, while not every piece of gear is exceptional, this Warbond offers high overall utility. This is largely due to 40-K Meltagun, G/40-K Meltamine, and P/40-K Bolt Pistol; these items are capable of one-shot kills or deliver outstanding performance across the board.

Beyond new content, Patch 7.0.0 introduces various balance adjustments, including bug fixes, buffs for numerous items, and icon optimizations, all designed to improve your gear selection and operational efficiency.

For instance, GATER has been fitted with the new Super V48 Interceptor engine, boosting both its speed and handling, while R-2124 Constitution now supports stripper clips.

Additionally, the assisted reload mechanic has been completely overhauled. You can now simply step up to assist a teammate carrying a backpack-fed weapon, eliminating the need for the excessive coordination previously required.

This means that whether you are squared up with friends or random strangers, you can easily perform assisted reloads without complex communication.

As for icon optimization: previously, similar weapon appearances made it difficult to quickly locate specific items in the loadout menu.

Patch 7.0.0 enhances icon distinctiveness, helping you make quick decisions, whether you're pressed for time or simply have a preference for specific gear.

If this update has reignited your interest in Helldivers 2 and you're ready to return to Super Earth to conquer Illuminate, then jump right in, your squad mates are waiting for you!

ARC Raiders' biggest update to date - Frozen Trail - is confirmed to launch on October 8th. This is more than just another new map; the official confirmed content includes at least a brand new ARC, a new high-difficulty ARC Operation, Outpost, an improved Skill Tree, and an expanded ARC origin story.

The Next Frontier

At the heart of Frozen Trail is a brand new map.

Map Background and Setting

In the story, NPC Shani will summon Raiders to investigate an unknown signal originating from beyond the mountains. Players will take on the role of a scouting party member, exploring an abandoned settlement covered in snow on the edge of Rust Belt.

This area, once home to thriving villages, factories, research facilities, and an observatory, is now long abandoned. Players will face unprecedented environmental challenges - not only from the snow-covered surface but also from threats lurking beneath the surface.

Map Design Philosophy

The studio emphasizes that the core design principle of this map is greater verticality. This means the map will have more layers - both high areas requiring climbing and exploration, and underground regions waiting to be discovered. This multi-layered design will provide players with more routes and discoverability.

In actual gameplay, players are advised not to treat it as a typical new resource-running map. Upon entering the new map, players should first familiarize themselves with the vertical routes, underground entrances, and connections between different areas. Underground routes, in particular, may present previously safe areas with entirely different structures.

New ARC Operation

The studio devoted considerable space in the announcement to describing the design philosophy of this operation: meaningful decision-making, dynamic encounters, and moments requiring cooperation and careful judgment. They claim that players will need to find a balance between combat, teamwork, risk management, and survival, describing it as one of the most intense and exciting experiences ARC Raiders has ever offered.

As of now, limited details about the specific mechanics of this ARC Operation have been revealed, but the following points are known:

• Targeting high-level/experienced Raiders
• Large scale
• Emphasis on cooperation and teamwork
• Rewards for those willing to take on challenges

The existing ARC Operation in the game is already attempting to change the traditional Raid process. For example, Close Scrutiny revolves around specific areas, objectives, and ARC threats, creating unique encounters that are linked to gear rewards like Dolabra.

If the high-difficulty Frozen Trail operation continues this approach, players may not truly need to focus on maximizing damage, but rather on handling different loadout situations.

With the new, high-difficulty content, preparing appropriate weapons, equipment, and consumables in advance will become even more crucial. If you wish to replenish your resources beforehand, you can buy ARC Raiders items at IGGM.com to prepare for the new map and operation.

New ARC

Launching alongside the new map and operation are new ARC enemies, ranging from nimble and cunning little creatures to colossal machines capable of blocking your path. The official statement claims these new ARCs are specifically designed to challenge your already learned methods of movement, combat, and adaptation.

Given the developers' previous acknowledgment of underperforming skills, the addition of new ARC enemies is likely to alter the current meta and build choices. Players will need to rethink their skill combinations and combat strategies to counter these new threats.

Outpost

Currently, the player's personal space is Raider Den, located in the underground city of Speranza. This underground space visually evolves as the player progresses, showcasing weapons, loot, and collectibles. Frozen Trail will introduce a brand new space - Outpost.

According to official information, Outpost will have the following features:

1. Decorative: Players can personalize this space.
2. Research Function: Used to research new elements of the world.
3. Symbolic Significance: This is the first step in reclaiming the surface.

Judging from the studio's previous statements, their long-term goal is to create a larger survival experience, and Outpost may be a key step in achieving this goal.

Skill Tree Adjustments

Skill Tree will be adjusted in Frozen Trail, aiming to give players more autonomy in deciding what kind of Raider they want to become.

Currently, ARC Raiders features three distinct skill trees - Conditioning, Mobility, and Survival - with a total of 45 skill nodes, each containing 15 skills. Different skills have different upgrade caps, with some skills reaching a maximum of level 5.

Previously, the game's design director admitted, "I don't think we've achieved perfection in any sense," and promised significant changes.

Plot Foreshadowing: From Hurricane to Frozen Trail

From Hurricane to Frozen Trail, the storyline of ARC Raiders is gradually unfolding into a complete narrative. In February and March of 2026, Rust Belt was attacked by Hurricanes. As events unfolded, players began to notice unusual ARC activity, even spotting strange objects in the sky. Meanwhile, Shani Celeste received signals from an unknown source, prompting the Raiders to investigate.

In Frozen Trail, this narrative begins to extend further. The information released on August 12th again mentioned an unknown signal from beyond the mountains, creating a clear connection between the anomalies observed during Hurricane, High Gain Antenna storyline, and Frozen Trail. In other words, this update may not just be about adding new maps and content, but rather continuing to advance a long-established main storyline.

The biggest question now is what this signal from beyond the mountains actually means. It could be the culmination of foreshadowing in High Gain Antenna storyline, or it could simply be the beginning of a larger story, planting new clues for future events. Whatever the final answer, the Frozen Trail is likely to become a crucial juncture connecting earlier events with the next phase of the story.

Therefore, what's truly noteworthy about the Frozen Trail might not just be the new map, the new ARC, and the high-difficulty Operations, but how it will change players' understanding of Rust Belt and the origins of ARC. As the unknown signal gradually surfaces, October 8th may become a key turning point for ARC Raiders story to enter the next phase.
