General News

In WoW TBC Classic Anniversary, Beast Mastery (BM) Hunter spec has consistently been recognized as the most efficient, sustainable, and beginner-friendly spec for leveling. This isn't just true for Hunters, but for all classes.

No other spec in BCC Anniversary combines extremely high kill efficiency, excellent survivability, extremely low downtime, and incredibly simple controls like Beast Mastery Hunter. Not to mention, once you equip a pet, it can absorb the vast majority of additional damage, allowing for almost zero grim damage and sustained DPS.

Furthermore, it's worth mentioning that Beast Mastery Hunter's leveling talent tree seamlessly integrates with the max-level Pounce talent tree. This means that choosing BM Hunter means you can almost immediately begin your Tempest Keep & Serpentshrine Cavern raid journey without facing the expensive and tedious talent reset process after reaching level 70! 

Here, we'll provide a complete guide to Beast Mastery Hunter leveling spec, covering the changes introduced in WoW TBC Anniversary Phase 2, from talent trees and pet selection to combat techniques and leveling routes. Let's get started!

Talent Tree Setup

First, Hunter class has three specs: Beast Mastery, Marksmanship, and Survival, each with its own loyal following.

If you crave impressive damage numbers from your arrows, Marksmanship is a safe choice. Its single-shot damage is extremely high, the visual effects are stunning, and skilled players can achieve incredibly fast kill rates. However, Marksmanship requires stricter mana management; its leveling efficiency can be somewhat challenging when gear is weak.

Of the three specs, Survival has the lowest leveling efficiency. It focuses more on providing utility support and crowd control abilities rather than simply pursuing maximum damage output.

Beast Mastery spec stands out because your pet handles most of the trouble. Your pet draws aggro and deals massive damage, while you simply stand 30 yards away and shoot, taking almost no damage yourself.

Beast Mastery Talent Tree

Beast Mastery talent tree upgrade strategy is extremely simple and straightforward: invest 41 points in Beast Mastery tree first, then put the remaining 20 points into Marksmanship tree.

• Improved Aspect of the Hawk (5 points): Provides an additional ranged attack speed bonus when Aspect of the Hawk is active, significantly increasing overall DPS.
• Focused Fire (2 points): Provides a permanent 2% critical strike chance bonus as long as the pet is alive, and increases pet damage by 20% when using Kill Command ability.
• Thick Hide (1 point): Increases your pet's armor value by 20%, significantly improving the pet's defense against melee enemies.
• Improved Revive Pet (2 points): Pets inevitably die unexpectedly while leveling up. This talent halves the cast time for resurrecting a pet and significantly reduces mana costs, making it an extremely crucial efficiency talent.
• Pathfinding (2 points): Increases mount speed by 10% and Aspect of the Cheetah and Aspect of the Pack speed by 8%. Faster movement speed means fewer quests and less time spent grinding.
• Unleashed Fury (5 points): Simply and directly increases pet damage by 15%, every point invested results in a significant increase in output.
• Ferocity (5 points): Directly increases pet burst damage and team support capabilities for this spec.
• Bestial Discipline (2 points): Increases pet focus regeneration speed, allowing pets to use special abilities more frequently.
• Intimidation (1 point): The core control and survival skill for Hunters. A one-minute cooldown pet stun effect is a lifesaver in unexpected situations.
• Animal Handler (1 point): Provides a 4% pet hit rating, ensuring your pet's abilities hit boss raids and preventing damage loss.
• Frenzy (5 points): Gives your pet an 80% chance to gain a 30% attack speed bonus for 8 seconds after a critical hit. Significantly increases your overall DPS.
• Bestial Wrath (1 point): Increases pet damage by 50% for 18 seconds and grants immunity to all pity, remorse, and fear. This allows you to instantly melt targets when facing elite mobs or boss raids in BCC phase 2.
• Catlike Reflexes (3 points): Increases your pet's dodge rate, greatly enhancing its survivability when tanking alone.
• Serpent's Swiftness (5 points): A core talent that increases both Hunter's and pet's attack speed by 15%.
• The Beast Within (1 point): A key skill for Beast Mastery Hunters. When The Bestial Wrath is activated, Hunter enters a rage state, increasing damage by 10%, reducing mana cost of all abilities by 20%, and granting immunity to all crowd control. This rage, available every 2 minutes, transforms you and your pet into relentless harvesting machines for 18 seconds.

Marksmanship Talent Tree

Next, allocate the remaining 20 points to Marksmanship to maximize personal damage output:

• Lethal Shots (5 points): Increases ranged critical strike chance.
• Efficiency (5 points): Reduces mana cost of all abilities, further enhancing survivability.
• Go for the Throat (2 points): Hunter's ranged critical strikes directly restore Focus to the pet, creating a perfect damage loop.
• Aimed Shot (1 point): Increases ranged damage by 600 and reduces healing received by the target by 50%.
• Rapid Killing (2 points): By reducing the cooldown of key offensive skills to 3 minutes, Hunter can use Bestial Wrath more frequently, maximizing sustained damage in raids.
• Mortal Shots (5 points): Increases ranged critical strike damage bonus by 30%, making you highly competitive in raids like Tempest Keep and Serpentshrine Cavern at max level.

Recommended Pets for Leveling

Pets are a decisive factor in determining the strength of a Beast Mastery Hunter spec. In TBC Classic, the top-tier pets for upgrading are Ravagers and Cats.

Before entering Outland, it is recommended that you capture a Cat or Wind Serpent as your pet. Cats, in particular, have extremely high base damage and can learn the core damage skills Claw and Bite.

Once you set foot on Hellfire Peninsula, capture a Ravager as soon as possible. This is undoubtedly the undisputed DPS king in WoW BCC Anniversary. Not only is its base damage excellent, but it also possesses the exclusive skill Gore, which has a chance to trigger double damage, providing terrifying single-target DPS and firmly securing aggro.

Core Combat Techniques

Levels 1-10

Before completing the class quest and obtaining a pet at level 10, this is the most difficult phase for Hunters. It is recommended that you learn Concussive Shot as soon as possible. Utilize its slowing effect, combined with kiting techniques, to kill monsters without taking damage while avoiding melee attacks.

Levels 11-61

Once you have a pet, the core principle is to let the pet engage first, while you control your DPS. After the pet establishes aggro for 1-2 seconds, cast Serpent Sting and use Auto Shot as your primary DPS method, only using Arcane Shot when mana is extremely plentiful.

Remember, frequently and mindlessly spamming Arcane Shot will cause you to run out of mana after killing 4-5 monsters. The essence of Hunter leveling lies not in the speed of killing single monsters, but in achieving uninterrupted combos through auto-fire damage.

Levels 62-70

Once you learn Steady Shot at level 62, Hunter's damage output undergoes a qualitative change. While Steady Shot has a cast time, it doesn't delay the next auto-fire if timed correctly.

Maintain this offensive rhythm, and your damage output will increase exponentially. When your pet lands a critical hit and triggers its effect, immediately press Kill Command, which doesn't occupy focus.

Leveling Path

Before level 58, simply complete quests in the classic areas of Azeroth for each faction, such as Western Plaguelands, Tanaris, Strangthorn Vale, and The Barrens.

Once you reach level 58, don't hesitate to immediately cross Dark Portal to Outland! The gear rewards from Hellfire Peninsula quests completely outclass the legendary gear dropped in Azeroth.

The optimal leveling route in Outland phase is: Hellfire Peninsula → Zangarmarsh → Terokkar Forest → Nagrand → Blade's Edge Mountains → Netherstorm.

While there's no need for excessive grinding during leveling, each dungeon in Outland offers extremely high quest experience and excellent transitional gear rewards. Therefore, completing the quests in each dungeon once is the most cost-effective option.

Additionally, note that Hunter's bow, gun, and crossbow are absolutely core equipment. Even if you don't change your armor, prioritize upgrading your ranged weapons at all costs. A high-DPS weapon means more powerful automatic fire, higher stable damage, and more Focus from your pet's talents.

Following this guide, in WoW The Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary Phase 2, your Beast Mastery Hunter will sweep through Outland at a terrifyingly fast pace, almost like a perpetual motion machine.

Due to the nerfs to Warlock class resulting from the adjustments to Reign of the Warlock in Patch 3.2.0, and the absence of any new classes introduced in Diablo 2 Resurrected Season 14, other classic classes have begun to experience a resurgence in popularity.

In light of this, we present to you a rather old-school Amazon build. One of the defining characteristics of this class is its proficiency with bows, javelins, and spears; if you have a fondness for bow-based gameplay, this guide is well worth your read!

Physical Bow Amazon Build overview

The primary strength of this build lies in its formidable damage output; however, its defensive capabilities are relatively weak, a configuration commonly referred to as a glass cannon build.

To truly unlock this build's full potential, you should focus on amplifying its strengths by stacking bonuses to movement attributes, rather than attempting to bolster its defenses, an approach that would ultimately serve as a waste of the build's inherent capabilities.

Consequently, the core challenge and most critical aspect of crafting Physical Bow Amazon build lies in the selection and optimization of your gear, which typically necessitates access to high-tier items and Runes.

Generally speaking, gear farming can be approached in a targeted manner by focusing on specific boss drops; however, the acquisition of Runes is far more subject to randomness, a factor that becomes particularly significant if you intend to utilize specific Runewords.

Therefore, if you wish to expedite the process of crafting this build, or any other build heavily reliant on Runewords, it's more reliable to buy D2R Runewords directly from IGGM during Season 14!

Gear and Runeword combinations

First, ensure that you equip your primary damage-dealing bow in your main-hand weapon slot. Next, ensure that the bow equipped in your off-hand slot bears the new Mania Runeword introduced in Reign of the Warlock.

While this Runeword offers a variety of beneficial effects, the most critical attributes for a Physical Bow Amazon are undoubtedly the increased attack speed and the chance to trigger a Level 1 Burst of Speed upon striking an enemy.

During actual combat, you can begin by dealing damage with your main-hand bow. When necessary, switch to your off-hand weapon; by utilizing Strafe skill, you can trigger Mania Runeword's effects, after which you can switch back to your main-hand bow to resume your primary damage output.

As for specific weapon choices: if you intend to use this build for your initial playthrough and for farming resources on Hell difficulty, Windforce bow is an excellent option.

Windforce boasts the highest maximum damage ceiling of any bow in Diablo 2 Resurrected. Furthermore, its power scales as your character level increases, and its potent Knockback attribute allows you to effectively control and keep enemies at bay.

However, the bow option that truly elevates the ceiling of this entire build is, in fact, Grand Matron Bow socketed with Faith Runeword.

Subsequently, if you allocate all your attribute points into Dexterity, the moment combat begins, the entire screen will instantly be blanketed by a storm of flying arrows.

Next on our list of recommendations is Exceptional-tier body armor: Ornate Plate. Not only does it possess Ethereal property, but it also features four sockets, making it an excellent base item for this specific build.

The ideal Runeword for this armor is Fortitude. Composed of exactly four runes, it offers a wealth of buffs, though its most standout feature is undoubtedly the +300% Enhanced Damage bonus.

Furthermore, it boosts your all resistances and provides a Life bonus that scales according to your character's level.

As for boots, we recommend War Traveler, primarily to capitalize on the fixed damage bonus it provides, thereby significantly boosting your overall damage output.

Next up are Dual Leech and Manald Heal rings, along with Razortail belt. The belt is chosen to further increase the chance of piercing attacks, while Manald Heal ring provides you with 75 points of poison resistance.

Skill selection

For this build, skill allocation is, to a large extent, dictated by your gear setup. With this in mind, your first priority should be to invest points into Bow and Crossbow skills.

Doing so directly enhances the base damage of your core skill, Multiple Shot, so be sure to max out Multiple Shot as well.

Additionally, and perhaps even more importantly, you should acquire Skillers. These Grand Charms grant +1 to a specific character's skill tree, further boosting your effective skill levels; they can also occasionally roll with other useful secondary modifiers.

Another key active skill for this build is Strafe. If you wish to avoid potential issues regarding attack frames with your arrows, you may choose to invest two skill points into this ability.

Next, the passive skill tree is absolutely crucial. Critical Strike and Penetrate are must-max skills, especially given that you will be equipping Razortail belt.

The final essential passive skill is Valkyrie. This ability summons a Valkyrie ally who, upon reaching skill level 17, will automatically spawn equipped with more powerful gear.

Optimal strategy

If you are well-versed in the loot mechanics of Diablo 2: Resurrected, you know that gathering all the necessary gear and Runewords for this build early in a ladder season can be a formidable challenge.

However, if you truly wish to experience the extraordinary physical damage output this playstyle offers, we recommend starting with a Javelin-focused Amazon build.

Once you have farmed sufficient resources, perhaps by running The Secret Cow Level, you can then transition to Physical Bow Amazon Build. Moreover, this also applies within Reign of the Warlock expansion.

That concludes our overview for this session. If this has piqued your interest, why not start planning your own character builds for the new season right now?

A new set of Trials has arrived in ARC Raiders, bringing epic items and precious blueprints you definitely won't want to miss. We're now in the second week of Season 4 (May 18-24), and for those who took part, these rewards offer a solid boost.

Let's dive into all Trial missions available this week and see how you can consistently rack up three-star ratings with speed and ease.

ARC Raiders Season 4 Week 2 Trial Missions

Before you head out, here are the objectives you'll need to complete this week:

• Search containers in the Medical Research wing
• Search Lockers
• Damage Rocketeers
• Damage Leapers
• Destroy Pops

None of the tasks this week are overly demanding, and with double points active on certain maps, you'll clear these Trials even faster. Now, let's break down exactly how to handle each one.

Damage Leapers

• Recommended maps: The Blue Gate & Dam Battlegrounds

Around Adorn Wreckage on The Blue Gate and in the small village nearby, Leapers spawn reliably. Dam Battlegrounds also features plenty of Leaper spawn points. Once taken down, Leapers do respawn, but there's a cooldown of a few minutes.

Each Leaper nets you roughly 1,700–2,000 points. Eliminating two will consistently earn you three stars; alternatively, you can finish one and deal heavy damage to a second. Just bear in mind that you'll want to deliver as much of that damage on your own as possible - if other players join in, your personal score gets diluted.

For an effortless three-star clear, simply bring a Hullcracker with two stacks of ammo to pile up damage fast. If you're chasing a top-tier score, Wolfpacks are the way to go. Toss a Wolfpack to soften the target, then follow up with Hullcracker. There's no need to sink two Wolfpacks into the same Leaper.

Make absolutely sure you select a Night Raid map and deploy there. While nighttime no longer provides double points, both the spawn frequency and movement speed of Leapers increase significantly, giving you far more kill opportunities in a single run.

Damage Rocketeers

• Recommended map: The Blue Gate

Each Rocketeer is worth around 1,430 points. To comfortably hit three stars, all you need is to take down two Rocketeers and deal partial damage to a third, though eliminating three outright is the safer approach.

Compared with Leapers, Rocketeers pose a much greater threat. Conventional weapons can work, but they're riskier and less efficient, which is why Wolfpacks remain the top pick.

You can run a loadout similar to the one used for Damage Leapers, only swapping Hullcracker for a Jupiter as your backup weapon. Two well-placed Wolfpacks will usually be enough to bring down a single Rocketeer.

Whenever possible, engage Rocketeers from long range. If you can take them down before they get within striking distance, you'll avoid return fire completely.

Destroy Pops

• Recommended maps: Stella Montis & Buried City

Indoor areas of Stella Montis and Buried City are crawling with Pops. At 400 points each, destroying around eight of them secures three stars. They pose very little threat, which makes this arguably the easiest Trial.

Pops are mobile explosive enemies that detonate on their own. One crucial detail: the explosion only counts if you personally shoot and trigger it. If they get caught in another blast or self-destruct, it won't progress your mission.

You'll want a fast-firing weapon that can one-shot Pops, such as Bettina or Venator. On Stella Montis, Shredders also make an appearance, so keep a Hullcracker handy to clean them up.

Whenever Pops and Fireballs show up together, always take out Pops first. If you go for Fireballs straight away, Pops will have plenty of time to rush you or get set off by the flames, leaving you with nothing to show for your effort.

Search containers in the Medical Research wing

• Recommended map: Stella Montis

The medical area on Stella Montis boasts a denser concentration of searchable containers than any other map. Each search awards 134 points. Do note that this week's Trial no longer demands 4,000 points, nor is there a double-points mechanic. Reaching three stars requires searching roughly 20 containers - hardly a challenge.

This objective covers every interactive object in the area: regular containers, lootable robots, breakable cabinets, and containers inside key-locked rooms. Special objects like radars or ARC devices are not included.

Once again, a Night Raid is highly recommended, as far more containers spawn under these conditions than during the day.

It's also a good idea to bring a key for the medical research facility - those key rooms hold an extra 10–15 containers, which not only pushes your score higher but also gives you a shot at ARC Raiders blueprints. While searching, you can still interact with and earn points from containers that other players have already opened.

Server cabinets work as well; weapon cases, medical kits, and every lootable item contribute to your progress. Even computer terminals can be searched for points.

Search Lockers

• Recommended maps: Dam Battlegrounds & Spaceport

Dam Battlegrounds and Spaceport feature the highest number of Lockers. Dam Battlegrounds has a slight edge in quantity, but many of them are tucked behind key rooms, so you'll want to bring a keycard when heading into that map. Over on Spaceport, Lockers appear in clusters, making it a more reliable choice to group up with squadmates.

Each locker gives 160 points, meaning you'll need to search around 15–20 of them. The same search trick applies here: Lockers that have already been opened by other players will still grant you points.

That wraps up the complete guide for ARC Raiders Trials in Season 2 Week 2. Whether you're running solo or with a squad, we hope these tips help you lock in top scores without breaking a sweat.

On May 15, Mural Program makes its way into MLB The Show 26. Its centerpiece rewards are Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Adrián Morejón, though the other prizes along the way are nothing to overlook either.

This update also brings Mural Series Collection. The final reward for that collection is 90 OVR José Ramirez - a card that not only holds down the hot corner as a primary third baseman but can also fill in at second base, shortstop, and left field, making him exceptionally versatile. Let's break down how to efficiently complete both Mural Program and the accompanying Collection.

Mural Program Reward Path

• 5 Points: 1,000 XP
• 10 Points: MLB The Show 26 pack
• 15 Points: 250 Stubs
• 20 Points: 91 OVR Mural Adrián Morejón
• 25 Points: 1,000 XP
• 30 Points: MLB The Show 26 pack
• 35 Points: 250 Stubs
• 40 Points: 91 OVR Mural Hunter Goodman
• 45 Points: 2,000 XP
• 50 Points: Ballin' is a Habit pack
• 55 Points: 2,000 XP
• 60 Points: 92 OVR Mural Grady Sizemore
• 65 Points: MLB The Show 26 pack
• 70 Points: 2,000 XP
• 75 Points: Headliners pack
• 80 Points: 92 OVR Mural Bryan Woo
• 85 Points: MLB The Show 26 pack (x2)
• 90 Points: 2,000 XP
• 95 Points: Mural Deluxe Pack
• 100 Points: 92 OVR Mural Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

Beyond MLB The Show 26 stubs and card packs, Mural Program also gives out a number of Mural Series players. If you're aiming to finish Collection, you'll definitely want to collect all of these free players.

As for actual in-game value: while a card like Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is certainly usable, Mural players found on the market tend to be of higher quality. Notably, Mural Deluxe Pack at 90 Points includes a tradable Mural Series player.

How to Make Progress?

Now, let's take a closer look at the specific tasks within Mural Program.

Moments: 5 points each. Completing all four Moments earns you 20 points.

Stat Missions:

• 10 Points: Record 30 hits with any players.
• 10 Points: Hit 10 home runs with any players.
• 10 Points: Steal 10 bases with any players.
• 10 Points: Pitch 9 innings (total).
• 10 Points: Score 24 runs with any players.

PXP Missions:

• 10 Points: Earn 2,000 PXP in Mural Series.
• 10 Points: Earn 4,000 PXP using Mural Series players.
• 10 Points: Earn 6,000 PXP with any players.

My Legacy Collection

• 10 Points: Complete 600 K Strikeout (Silver) Icon.
• 10 Points: Complete 250,000 PXP (Silver) Icon.

Between PXP Missions and Stat Missions alone, you can earn a solid number of Program Points. Before you start grinding, head over to Bonus tab and claim My Legacy Collection Icons that the development team provides for free. That immediately gives you an extra 20 points, unlocking your first Mural player.

You'll want to prioritize offline content. When working on tasks like accumulating PXP, having most of Mural players already in hand - which you can get through offline modes - allows you to slot them straight into your lineup and rack up progress with ease, ultimately completing the entire Program.

Collection

This Collection requires three player cards, each with a different number of Mural Series items needed:

• 93 OVR Vladimir Guerrero Jr.: 13 Mural Series items
• 94 OVR Roy Halladay: 21 Mural Series items
• 95 OVR José Ramirez: 29 Mural Series items

Here's how all current Mural Series players can be obtained:

• Chase: 1
• Collection: 2
• Conquest: 1
• Diamond Quest: 2
• Events: 1
• Mini Seasons: 4
• Pack: 15
• Program: 5

How to Complete the Collection?

Diamond Quest

After finishing the base Program points, your next target is Diamond Quest. The recommended strategy here is a bunt squad - sacrifice power hitting in favor of a lineup built entirely around high speed and high bunting stats, focusing exclusively on bunts. This approach proves highly effective for conquering stadiums on higher difficulties.

Mini Seasons

The goal in Mini Seasons is to accumulate a total of 22,000 PXP, unlocking 92 OVR George Springer. Run your bunt squad again, select Legend difficulty against the CPU, and simply keep bunting. You should be able to reach 22,000 PXP within 6 to 7 games.

Event

After completing Event mode tasks, you'll earn 12 free cards. If you also finish Conquest mode and obtain 92 OVR Ralph Kiner, you'll then unlock 93 OVR Vladimir Guerrero Jr. From there, you'll need to acquire the remaining cards through packs or trading.

How to Obtain Packs?

Mural pack in Shop contains the remaining 15 Mural Series cards. If you've already opened Mural Deluxe Pack, you'll only need 14 more. However, be aware that this pack can also give duplicates of Mural Series cards you already own.

There's also a new Chase Pack, which includes 95 OVR Carlos Santana - potentially the top first baseman in the game. Its current market value is around 200,000 stubs.

If you haven't finished Multiplayer Program - or even if you have - you can continue grinding the wheel spin for a chance at 50 bundle that contains Chase Pack.

If you're in no rush, consider waiting a bit before completing this Collection. The number of Mural Series cards available is still relatively small; once more cards from this series drop, Collection will become much easier to finish.

With the launch of Diablo 4 Season 13 and Lord of Hatred expansion, the game has introduced a series of revolutionary gameplay mechanics and core items. Foremost among these is a complete overhaul of Lair Boss system, a feature that has persisted across multiple previous seasons. To be honest, many players had previously complained about the complexity of boss summoning materials; since each boss required a unique set of components to access, a significant portion of the endgame experience was consumed by endless, repetitive grinding.

Fortunately, the developers have finally streamlined Lair Boss system, categorizing boss materials into distinct tiers: Initiate, Greater, and Exalted. While most of the materials remain largely similar, one new item in particular has captured the community's attention: Crux of the False Prophet. This essential component is required to initiate Echo of Mephisto Hoard introduced in Season 13.

Entering Season 13 and Lord of Hatred era, Crux of the False Prophet serves as the critical Lair Boss Key needed to unlock the ultimate challenge, making it a highly coveted core resource for any player striving to acquire top-tier gear.

In this guide, we will provide a comprehensive breakdown of Crux of the False Prophet's core utility in the current season, every available method for acquiring it, and the most efficient farming strategies. Our goal is to help you overcome every obstacle and successfully unlock the gates to the game's most prized endgame treasures.

Core Utility: Unlocking Mephisto's Hoard

As previously mentioned, Crux of the False Prophet stands as one of the most strategic and high-value resources in D4S13. Its sole and primary function is to unlock Hoard that drops after you successfully defeat Mephisto.

As the climactic last boss of Lord of Hatred expansion, Mephisto features incredibly punishing combat mechanics and is widely regarded as one of the most difficult and elite challenges currently available in the entire game. Defeating him, however, is not the end of the journey; only by consuming a Crux of the False Prophet to unlock his Hoard can players gain a high probability of obtaining powerful Mythic gear and Mythic Unique Seals, essential components for crafting a character's ultimate endgame build.

How to unlock Crux of the False Prophet? 

In Diablo 4 Season 13, given the extreme rarity of this particular item, the game offers several different methods for acquiring it, though the drop rates vary:

1. Seasonal Rank Rewards

For powerful veteran players, the most reliable and guaranteed method for securing a Crux of the False Prophet is undoubtedly by advancing their Seasonal Rank. Every player can unlock this reward by completing the ultimate challenge at Rank 8.

However, the requirements for breaking through to this rank are exceptionally rigorous, demanding that players successfully defeat Echo of Lilith on Torment 8 difficulty. Upon completion, you are guaranteed a 100% drop rate for one Crux of the False Prophet as a core progression reward. Note, however, that this reward can only be claimed once per character.

2. Farming Greater Lair Bosses

During your daily farming routines, Greater Lair Bosses serve as the primary source for players looking to acquire boss keys. Although the drop rate for bosses at this tier remains relatively low, it stands as one of the most reliable farming methods available when compared to other alternatives. Simply continue accumulating Greater Lair Keys and defeating the bosses; with enough attempts, RNG is bound to favor you, eventually!

Additionally, while Initiate Lair Bosses do possess a minuscule chance of directly dropping this key, it is advisable not to harbor overly high expectations. Instead, view them primarily as stepping stones for acquiring Greater Lair Keys. This way, should you actually manage to loot a Crux of the False Prophet from them, it will come as a delightful, unexpected bonus.

3. Advancing Through War Plans for Loot

War Plans represent a new endgame feature introduced in Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred. Upon completing an entire War Plan, the resulting Key Spoils have a certain probability of yielding various Lair Boss keys, including Crux of the False Prophet.

In each War Plan cycle, players are granted three free re-roll opportunities. It is highly recommended that you utilize this mechanism to filter out time-consuming or tedious routes, opting instead for activities that can be cleared quickly and efficiently. By rapidly cycling through the entire War Plan, you effectively maximize the expected value of your ultimate rewards.

4. Defeating World Bosses and Elite Monsters

While this method falls into the category of serendipitous drops, rewards that occur purely by chance, you are certainly welcome to give it a try. However, it should not be relied upon as your primary farming strategy. 

Regarding World Bosses: the caches dropped after defeating them have an extremely low probability of yielding Crux of the False Prophet. While this shouldn't be your primary farming objective, given that these caches also provide other incredibly valuable resources, they are still well worth pursuing.

Regarding Elite Monsters: we actually suspect that the in-game database listing dungeon Elites as potential drop sources is merely a gimmick. In our actual testing, the base drop rate was found to be extremely low, approaching zero in fact. If you do happen to get one from an Elite, congratulations, you've just won the lottery!

The Optimal Farming Route

Combining the acquisition methods mentioned above, and to maximize your returns, we recommend that players, once they have reached a high level, follow this farming route to ensure effortless progression:

Step 1: Challenge Echo of Lilith on Tier 8 difficulty to secure your guaranteed Seasonal Key reward.

Step 2: Rapidly progress through War Plan objectives, making full use of the three free resets available to accumulate a large stockpile of Greater Lair Keys.

Step 3: Finally, we highly recommend teaming up with other players to take turns opening Greater Lair Boss Hoards. This allows you to exchange a single Greater Lair Key for four times the loot opportunities, enabling you to stack up Cruxes of the False Prophet at the most efficient rate possible. This ensures you are fully prepared for the final showdown against Mephisto and ready to harvest your Mythic gear.

In any case, stop wasting your time solo-farming dungeon elites! Start by completing the Tier 8 Lilith challenge to secure your guaranteed keys, and kick off your true loot-harvesting journey!

Of course, aside from the onetime Seasonal Rank rewards, all other acquisition methods rely heavily on your luck. If you wish to avoid getting bogged down in an endless farming grind, there is another reliable way to unlock the necessary boss materials: you can directly buy Diablo 4 Crux of the False Prophet from IGGM. With lightning-fast delivery and 24/7 customer support, you can face Mephisto head-on, completely stress-free, and claim all the spoils of victory!

Players, WoW TBC Classic Anniversary Phase 2 is now officially live, and I'm sure everyone has been taking it seriously. But is it really as rich and fun as we expected? Next, we'll discuss the progress of Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep, and the economic strategies we should use now.

Phase 2 Raid Progression

It's fair to say that Phase 2's difficulty is far lower than we anticipated. Some guilds can clear the first eight bosses of Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep in just 3 hours, without a single wipe.

Compared to the early 2021 version of BCC, which might have taken 4 to 5 weeks, or even nearly two months, to kill Lady Vashj and Kael'thas Sunstrider, and that was the unnerfed version.

Now, some guilds can clear them on their first try, without even needing to practice on PTR. This difficulty is even lower than Naxxramas, roughly equivalent to Temple of Ahn'Qiraj. This clearly reflects the significant nerfs in TBC Classic Anniversary Phase 2.

The Double-Edged Sword Effect of Low Difficulty

Firstly, this situation has a positive aspect for player gold.

Players can now easily kill bosses, and the development team has increased the number of extra loot drops. A large drop of gear means a greater need for Enchanting and gem socketing, which will stimulate short-term demand for Enchanting and Jewelcrafting materials.

Therefore, because of minimal wipes, players won't consume large amounts of consumables due to repeated deaths, resulting in lower initial raid costs.

However, this also carries potential negative risks. The worst-case scenario is that players might find the content too easy and become bored, quitting at some point in the game, leading to a decline in server activity.

However, this is unlikely to happen, as the current player base should be relatively stable, and their willingness to spend is strong.

Consumable Price Trend Prediction

We can predict that the price trend of consumables in BCC will show a short-term surge followed by a decline.

As we mentioned before, materials for Enchanting and Jewelcrafting experienced a surge in demand in the short term, causing prices to remain high for about a month.

After about five weeks, most players will have completed their equipment Enchanting and gem socketing, and the remaining equipment will be disenchanted. This will cause Enchanting materials like Void Crystals to drop significantly in price.

Regarding consumables such as potions, Flasks, food, and scrolls, the consumption per raid is relatively low because of the quick boss kills and lack of wipes. It's possible to clear the entire Serpentshrine Cavern with just one Flask. Therefore, consumable prices are unlikely to remain high indefinitely, and may only see a slight increase in the very early, very short period.

However, if a parse trend emerges, that is, semi-hardcore teams deliberately optimizing their output and using optimal consumables to achieve a 99-point Warcraft Logs score, then the demand for consumables could potentially surge again. This is currently the biggest uncertainty.

Economic Strategy Recommendations for the Current Phase

During the first five weeks of Phase 2, players should focus on materials and finished products related to Enchanting and Jewelcrafting. This is currently the clearest area of ​​demand.

As you progress to the mid-game, you should start planning for Phase 3. We need to pay attention to resources that may increase in price in Phase 3, such as Aquamarine and certain herbs. Accumulate gold in advance for worthwhile investments.

A general principle is that the launch of a new phase will attract a large number of returning players, so now is a good time to sell, while you need to be more cautious with your spending. Except for a few items that are still undervalued, think carefully about other items.

Of course, we cannot ignore a special variable. If the development team, as some streamers have discussed, adds high-quality equipment to Badge of Justice vendors, it will further stimulate the demand for Enchanting and gems, benefiting players with sufficient gold.

If you don't have enough, you can always buy TBC Classic Anniversary gold from IGGM.com. IGGM enjoys a high reputation in WoW TBC Classic Anniversary market for its fast delivery and low prices.

Analysis of the Impact of the Parse Trend

A parse refers to a strategy employed by high-level players to achieve 99 points in Warcraft Logs. This involves using extreme team compositions (e.g., eight Mages) and maximizing consumables to kill the boss in a very short time.

If the Phase 2 bosses are too easy to defeat, many semi-hardcore guilds will join the parse trend, leading to a significant increase in the use of consumables such as Haste Potions, Flasks, and Scrolls, potentially exceeding the consumption of regular wipes. This may be the only hope to support consumable prices.

This trend is possible, but it still requires observation of each team's class composition. Teams with more Mages may drive up the prices of Mage-specific gems and Enchanting.

The difficulty of BCC Phase 2 has undoubtedly decreased. If you want to invest your gold wisely, remember to take advantage of the short window of opportunity for Enchanting and Jewelcrafting. Good luck with your game!

Forza Horizon 6 officially launches in just one day! Whether you are an early access user or a standard player preparing for the full release, do not overlook the importance of customizing your vehicles through upgrades and tuning!

Admittedly, in terms of the cars themselves, higher-tier vehicles generally offer superior performance; however, it is only through proper building and tuning that a car can be truly tailored to suit your specific driving style.

In this guide, we will provide you with a comprehensive walkthrough on how to build and tune cars in Forza Horizon 6, while also highlighting the key changes and differences compared to FH5.

Revisiting the basics

While the specific details and user experience may evolve with every new installment in Forza Horizon series, the fundamental principles behind certain universal mechanics remain constant.

Take vehicle upgrades, for example. As a general rule, it is recommended that you aim to keep the vehicle's final performance class within one or two tiers above its original, stock rating.

During the upgrade process, prioritize free modification parts (those that do not consume PI) or parts that unlock advanced tuning options. Furthermore, you should always adhere to a bottom-up approach to modifications.

More specifically, start by identifying the optimal tire compound for your vehicle. Next, if necessary, upgrade the aerodynamics and suspension systems, and allocate a portion of your limited Performance Index (PI) toward weight reduction.

Finally, if you have any remaining PI points, feel free to invest them fully into boosting engine power.

Theoretically, every car can be improved through tuning; however, if a vehicle starts with a superior base rating and performance level, it will be both easier to tune and yield more significant benefits.

If you wish to quickly unlock such a high-performance vehicle early in the game, your best option is to buy Forza Horizon 6 cars from IGGM!

Engine Swaps

In FH6, engine swaps remain a powerful modification tool; however, compared to previous titles, you must now give greater consideration to the specific context and application of the swap.

Furthermore, maintaining proper weight balance and achieving overall weight reduction have become even more critical factors.

In other words, if a particular engine swap option results in a significant increase in vehicle weight, you must carefully weigh the pros and cons before committing to it, unless you are preparing for a specific race type where raw power takes precedence over handling.

In other types of events, it is generally best to retain the stock engine, or to opt for engines that are lighter and deliver peak power output within the high-RPM range.

Aspiration Swaps

The requirements for this modification mechanic remain largely consistent with those found in Forza Horizon 5. Although centrifugal superchargers have been removed for a select few specific vehicle models, they remain an extremely valuable upgrade option whenever available.

Additionally, you can experiment with adjusting PI efficiency of turbochargers or other superchargers across various engine types.

However, as a general rule, such modifications are typically only necessary when you are attempting to push a vehicle into a higher performance class and the stock engine's power output is no longer sufficient to meet the demands.

Drivetrain Swaps

In specific contexts within FH6, more precisely, in certain event types, All-Wheel Drive (AWD) swaps can indeed offer a distinct advantage, particularly in off-road races.

Conversely, in other low-to-mid-tier events, all drivetrain configurations remain entirely viable; in fact, Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) swaps can be highly competitive in events all the way up to R-class tier.

Furthermore, while the application of Widebody Kits is highly situational, they often offer greater modification value in high-tier events.

This is because they not only provide advantages in terms of body stability but also unlock the ability to adjust front-axle downforce, while simultaneously allowing you to fit wider tires.

However, in lower-tier events, the increased weight and aerodynamic drag, along with the associated PI consumption, introduced by Widebody Kits can actually hinder your performance, especially if you do not require the additional tire width.

Aerodynamics Swaps

Given that the drag-reduction benefits provided by certain components are often negligible, the true value of this modification category lies primarily in aerodynamic parts that offer adjustable downforce.

In this regard, Forza Horizon 6 mirrors its predecessor, FH5: starting from B-class events, it is generally recommended to select aerodynamic components that allow for independent downforce adjustment on both the front and rear axles.

Notably, if you prefer a pure tuning philosophy, FH6 offers you greater creative freedom; you can gain a competitive edge by enhancing the tires' mechanical grip rather than relying solely on aerodynamic aids.

However, the effectiveness of this tuning strategy depends heavily on the specific vehicle class and track characteristics involved, so it is essential to carefully weigh your options before committing to such a build.

Tire Compound Swaps

As a major point of evolution in Forza Horizon 6, the option to increase front tire width has taken on significantly greater importance. Consequently, the performance characteristics and practical applications of different tire compounds have become even more distinct.

Simply put, lower-performance tires will feel noticeably more challenging to drive, while superior tires will deliver a far more exceptional driving experience.

Furthermore, you can now fine-tune a vehicle's grip levels with much greater precision by adjusting its tire widths.

Previously, if you lacked sufficient grip, you were forced to upgrade to a higher-tier tire compound; now, however, simply widening the front tires can yield a significant improvement in handling.

In most scenarios, upgrading your front tires by one or two tiers proves to be a worthwhile investment, particularly in track environments where handling takes precedence.

Additionally, you can adjust your wheel selection to lower your Performance Index, or fine-tune your track width to alter the vehicle's handling characteristics.

Generally speaking, increasing the overall track width results in enhanced grip and greater stability. A wider front track width helps improve the vehicle's steering responsiveness; conversely, a wider rear track width serves to bolster straight-line stability.

That concludes this FH6 vehicle tuning guide. As you progress further into the game, you will discover even more build options and intricate details worth experimenting with. Keep racing!

It has been three weeks since the launch of ARC Raiders Riven Tides update. If you are a dedicated player, you may have already experienced all the new content; however, there is one specific item you might have overlooked: Avian Alarm Project!

In fact, this potential oversight doesn't concern the project itself, but rather its final four stages (out of a total of five). Below, we will explain why this might happen and help you complete the project before time runs out.

Avian Alarm Project duration

This project launched alongside Riven Tides update and will run until May 25th, ending exactly one week from today. That is precisely why we are sending out this reminder this week!

Prior to Flashpoint update, new projects typically had a much longer duration; for instance, Trophy Display Project introduced back in January is still available to this day.

However, starting with Weather Monitor Station Project in Shrouded Sky update, new projects have been limited to a duration of roughly one month. If you aren't paying close attention, you might not have even noticed this change until now!

Why might you miss the later stages?

The complete Avian Alarm Project consists of five stages. You might have been eager to complete Stage 1 right after the update launched in order to claim one of its rewards, Dockmaster's Detector, only to subsequently forget about the remaining four stages!

This often happens because Dockmaster's Detector is a prerequisite item for accessing the new Beachcombing activity on the new map.

Once unlocked, you likely became engrossed in treasure hunting and combat along the shoreline, gradually forgetting that you had only completed a fraction of Avian Alarm Project.

Another contributing factor is that the completion criteria for Stage 1, which unlocks Dockmaster's Detector, differ from the requirements for the subsequent four stages, making it easy to overlook the latter.

How to complete Avian Alarm Project?

Fortunately, there is still one week remaining before the project concludes. Even if you are a newcomer to the game who hasn't even finished Stage 1 of Avian Alarm yet, there is still plenty of time to catch up!

Stage 1

As the most crucial and unique part of the project, completing Stage 1 requires you to locate a bird trap and place it next to a buoy situated on the dried-up seabed within Riven Tides map.

You can think of this as a casual side quest; the bird trap is an automatically provided item that does not require any separate scavenging to acquire. To complete the placement objective, simply follow these steps:

1. Enter Riven Tides map and locate Port Authority Building situated in the northern sector.
2. Head northeast from the building toward the dried-up seabed located just beyond the seawall.
3. Locate the red buoy, select a spot nearby, and follow the on-screen prompts to place the bird trap.

Upon completion, in addition to Dockmaster's Detector, you will receive 25 Raider Tokens as the reward.

It is worth noting that while placing the bird trap, you can also conveniently complete Shoring Up Defenses and Battening Down quests, as the location is in close proximity to Stacked Yard area.

After this initial completion, if you wish to obtain more Dockmaster's Detectors for beach exploration, you must acquire them through scavenging, as the project reward is a one-time grant.

Stages 2-5

Starting from Stage 2, the project requirements shift to gathering materials. If you simply forgot about the project but have continued playing the game, you may have already inadvertently completed a portion of these requirements.

Listed below are the specific materials required and the corresponding rewards for Stages 2 through 5:

Although these materials are not difficult to find, they are somewhat scattered across the map. Therefore, a faster way to complete this task is to buy ARC Raiders Avian Alarm Materials on IGGM!

We offer trading options with customizable quantities for any stage; you can choose to unlock the project requirements gradually according to your personal needs, or complete the entire project instantly!

How to find ship models?

We believe that most of the materials required for Avian Alarm project will be familiar to you, and you should be able to easily gather them by participating in raids. The only somewhat tricky part involves the four distinct ship models.

Categorically speaking, ship models are classified as trinkets within the game. Although the developers haven't explicitly stated this, it appears that items of this type only spawn on Riven Tides map.

All ship models are scattered randomly across various corners of the map; there is no specific game mechanic that dictates a particular model can only be found at a designated location.

Therefore, the most efficient strategy is to utilize Dockmaster's Detector to more frequently farm resource nodes during Beachcombing map condition, continuing until you have acquired every ship model.

A highly recommended resource node location is the beach situated just north of Port Authority Building, specifically, the spot where you placed the bird trap during Stage 1.

In addition to the four models required for Avian Alarm Project, you may also discover Wind Sprite, which is the base of the set. All five ship models serve as collectibles for another concurrent event: Miniature Voyages.

Miniature Voyages's duration is the same as Avian Alarm, and it requires you to accumulate merits in order to unlock rewards. The sole source of these merits is the collection of ship models:

• Wind Sprite: 5 Merits
• Twilight Compass: 10 Merits
• Velocity: 15 Merits
• Sirena Dorata: 50 Merits
• Leviathan's Crown: 250 Merits

Miniature Voyages reward track requires a grand total of 3,150 Merits to complete, spanning 21 individual rewards. Consequently, the actual quantity of ship models you will need to collect is quite substantial!

That concludes this guide for Avian Alarm Project. Don't forget to tackle Miniature Voyages event alongside it! We hope you manage to successfully complete both events before they come to an end!

Monopoly Go's next racing event is just around the corner. With little time left in the current album, you'll need to seize every opportunity to get more card packs.

Tycoon Racers event does more than just rank racing teams - it also hands out rewards based on how many laps a team completes. In short, just taking part earns you something, but if you want the top prize, you'll have to compete against other teams.

Date

Tycoon Racers always runs for four days. You get one day to pick your teammates or prepare. This time, Tycoon Racers event kicks off right after the digging event. Here are the exact times:

• Start: 2026/05/20 13:00 (ET)
• End: 2026/05/24 15:55 (ET)

Event Rewards

Rewards from Tycoon Racers event come in two parts: team ranking rewards and lap completion rewards.

Team Ranking Rewards

The ranking rewards differ depending on whether you choose to team up or race solo.

Team Racers: 

• 1st: Board Token, 5-star sticker pack, 4-star pack, and Enchanted Storybook
• 2nd: 5-star sticker pack and 4-star sticker pack
• 3rd: 4-star sticker pack and 3-star sticker pack
• 4th: 2-star sticker pack and 1-star sticker pack

Solo Racers: 

• 1st: Board Token, 4-star sticker pack and 3-star sticker pack
• 2nd: 3-star sticker pack, 2-star sticker pack
• 3rd: 3-star sticker pack
• 4th: 2-star sticker pack

The sticker rewards in team mode are noticeably better - the purple pack and Enchanted Storybook far exceed the blue and pink packs from solo mode in terms of value.

Lap Rewards

Apart from the final race rewards, each lap you complete (by accumulating enough points on the track) during the event grants you lap rewards. These typically include sticker packs, dice, cash, or more flags.

However, there is a cap on these lap rewards. Once you hit the limit, completing additional laps will no longer give you any reward.

Which Mode Should You Choose?

To keep things fair, solo players only compete against other solo players, and the same goes for teams. If you're worried about ending up with teammates who don't pull their weight, you can always choose to go solo.

The first 24 hours after the event starts is the team-up portion. During this period, if you're unhappy with your current team or want to switch to solo mode, you can leave by tapping the small red button next to your avatar.

You cannot kick anyone out of the team - you can only leave yourself. After leaving, finding ideal teammates may be difficult, as your friends might already have formed their own teams.

When to Choose Team Mode?

If you're missing only a few five-star stickers, especially gold five-star stickers, then team mode is almost a must. The chance of pulling a five-star sticker from a blue pack is extremely low, offering little help to your current progress. In contrast, Enchanted Storybook and the purple pack are the rewards that truly move the needle toward completing your collection.

When to Choose Solo Mode?

If your sticker collection still has many gaps and you still need a lot of four-star, three-star, and two-star stickers, then the blue and pink packs from solo mode might actually be more practical. These lower-quality sticker packs can fill the blanks in your album faster.

However, whether you race solo or with a team, the number of points needed to complete one lap is exactly the same. Solo mode offers fewer rewards than team mode because in a team you benefit from everyone's collective progress. If you're aiming for bigger rewards, joining a team can give you an extra edge.

Also, given that Monopoly Ever After album ends on June 3rd, joining a team is the better choice. If you've had bad team-up experiences in the past, then buy Monopoly GO Tycoon Racers Event Rank 1 Full Carry service from IGGM could take away your worries - it provides you with several teammates who stay active throughout the event, giving you the strength to compete for first place.

How to Get Flags?

Flags are the core resource for Tycoon Racers event. You can obtain them through:

• Picking them up on the board
• Tournaments and banner events
• The free gift pack every 8 hours
• Daily Quick Wins
• Lap rewards

How to Use Flags?

Once you have flags, you can take them at the dice-launching device in the middle of the track to roll. You can adjust the multiplier based on how many flags you have. The higher the multiplier, the more flags you consume per roll, but also the higher the total points you can get from a single roll.

A normal roll gives you a distance equal to the dice number. If you roll two or three of the same number, you get a large point bonus, making your car speed forward on the track.

When the event ends, any unused flags are converted into in-game cash in Monopoly GO. The conversion rate is very low, far worse than using them to chase lap rewards. Therefore, it is highly recommended that you use up all your flags before the event ends to obtain more valuable rewards like dice or sticker packs.

That's everything about Tycoon Racers event from May 20th to 24th. Start asking around in player communities now for active teammates; don't wait for the system to assign teammates to you.

Players, you've been playing Diablo 4 Lord of Hatred for a few weeks now, and you should be familiar with War Plans system, a brand-new endgame feature introduced in Lord of Hatred. Next, we'll discuss how to use War Plans to farm the various Diablo 4 rewards you need.

Upgrade all War Plans to level 10

There are multiple activities you can choose to complete within War Plans. Each completed round of a plan increases War Plan level of that activity, up to a maximum of level 10.

Once an activity's War Plan reaches level 10, even if you no longer actively schedule it, you will automatically receive all the max-level passive bonuses while playing that activity normally, completely transforming your gameplay experience.

More importantly, Mythic War Plans will only have a chance to spawn after all activities have reached level 10. These quests directly reward top-tier Diablo 4 items that cannot be obtained through normal means.

To obtain Mythic War Plans, you should upgrade all activities to level 10. Besides obtaining Mythic Unique items, if you encounter a Mythic War Plan, completing it will directly reward you with a Horadric Gem, which requires 5 Grand Gems to craft. This reward is arguably the most luxurious in the game.

How to efficiently farm Mythic War Plans?

Once all your War Plans are maxed out, the core objective is to repeatedly refresh the plan table to find Mythic War Plans, especially those that reward gems.

Each time you complete a War Plan round, you can reroll three times for free. If no Mythic War Plan appears, prioritize the shortest activity combination, such as Nightmare Dungeon, The Undercity, or Lair Bosses, completing them quickly to advance to the next round.

Helltide takes a long time. Unless you have absolutely no other options, prioritize resetting plans that include Helltide.

Different colored rewards on the table correspond to different qualities, but for Mythic War Plans, don't get bogged down in regular rewards. Instead, keep resetting until a purple Mythic War Plan appears.

Core War Plans

Tree of Whispers

For Tree of Whispers, prioritize maxing out the left skill tree to obtain Corrupted Roots. Planting these in Nightmare Dungeon or Helltide has a high probability of summoning Headrotten Feast. Killing it triggers a large number of monsters and additional rewards, making it one of the strongest farming strategies this season.

The core node in the middle is Wisdom of Whispers. It provides extra experience, greatly aiding leveling.

The right node is more friendly to casual players, offering a chance to directly obtain Resplendent Sparks. It's recommended to prioritize investing in this when lacking Mythic gear.

Nightmare Dungeon

Players must select Gauntlet. When you activate Shrine, killing monsters stores souls. When Shrine ends, all souls will be released at once, which is equivalent to doubling the number of kills. Combined with Corrupted Roots from Tree of Whispers, this can generate massive monster hordes.

Fearless Conviction grants Attuned Primordial Dust in Nightmare Dungeon, a highly valuable material used this season to reroll Unique gear affixes.

Helltide

Players should prioritize Bursting Brood, which spawns numerous Maggots in Helltide, providing a massive amount of experience upon defeat, making it the best way to quickly level up Paragon.

Second priority is Meat Brothers, which spawns two Butchers. Killing them drops Profane Mindcage, which increases the monster level in Helltide. Higher monster levels significantly increase the quality and quantity of loot.

This War Plan requires almost no changes and is considered the optimal solution.

The Undercity

Gutter Filth is an absolutely core node in the The Undercity skill tree. It increases your final caches to 3-4, allowing you to obtain 4 Mythic items at once, making it the fastest way for newcomers to acquire Mythic gear.

Here's a pitfall players should avoid: don't select the node that adds extra cache but requires a key to open. The cache contains no special items, making it a complete waste of the node.

Lair Bosses

Lair of Runes and Lair of Plenty are two of the strongest damage-boosting nodes, directly granting the boss's Monster Power +1. This significantly improves drop quality and the drop rate of Mythic gear, making it core to any boss farming.

Selecting Ultimate Nemesis gives a chance to open a portal upon defeating a boss. Entering this portal leads to encounters with additional bosses, potentially triggering deeper portals. Players can obtain multiple Mythic items and a large amount of materials in a single encounter.

The last two nodes are completely customizable. Adjust them flexibly based on your current main farming content. For example, switch to Helltide-related nodes for Helltide farming, and to The Pit nodes for The Pit farming.

The Pit

If you're still upgrading your Glyph, prioritize selecting Choron's Blessing to increase Glyph Upgrade Chance by +1. Next, select Pit Buthcer to increase the chance of encountering Butcher. Defeating Butcher immediately ends the current Pit and grants all upgrade opportunities, significantly saving time.

To speed up completion, you can also select Heart of Stone, Choron's Haste, which allows you to complete Pits faster and gain more Glyph upgrade attempts.

Once all your Glyphs are maxed out, you can exchange excess Choron's Souls for equipment or experience points, but the experience gain is extremely low and not highly recommended.

Infernal Hordes

Most players may not enjoy this mode, but to upgrade all War Plans to level 10 and unlock Mythic War Plans, you still need to grit your teeth and level up.

The only efficient leveling technique is to find three other players who also want to level up, form a four-person team, and start Infernal Hordes in turn. After each round, take turns joining other players' rooms; this way, completing it once will increase the progress of multiple people simultaneously.

So, these are the farming strategies for various events in War Plans. Good luck farming for Mythic War Plans!
