  67. <p> <strong><em>Destiny 2</em></strong> sits as one of the best looter-shooters on the market, and a big reason why is that players have plenty of gear to find and options to choose from in every activity. Of course, guns are a huge part of the gameplay loop, and <em>Destiny 2</em>&#8216;s Exotic weapons can be particularly interesting due to their unique and sometimes build-enabling perks, such as Ager&#8217;s Scepter for Stasis or Sunshot for Solar. While <em>Destiny 2</em>&#8216;s Raid and Dungeon Exotics can be hit or miss and rarely key to a given build, a recent addition has skyrocketed to the very top of the meta &#8211; particularly for Strand subclasses and low-man PvE content, like Dungeons. </p>

  70. <p> While <em>Destiny 2</em>&#8216;s endgame activities vary in difficulty and player numbers, most of them have some encounters that act as survivability or DPS checks, and dealing as much damage as possible in each boss phase or to targets like Champions can make the difference. When it comes to <em>Destiny 2</em>&#8216;s Strand subclasses, they can be great across the board at different roles, but one of the core conceits is that Grapple is one of the best abilities in the game thanks to its mobility and Grapple Melee. Enter The Navigator Exotic trace rifle, and now the endgame meta has some clear winners. </p>

  89. <h3 id="how-the-navigator-39-s-exotic-catalyst-changes-strand-gameplay"> How The Navigator&#8217;s Exotic Catalyst Changes Strand Gameplay </h3>
  90. <p> <em>Destiny 2</em>&#8216;s Ghosts Of The Deep Dungeon wasn&#8217;t met with glaring opinions, and that&#8217;s mainly because of the exceedingly big health bar of the final boss, so that may be one of the reasons why The Navigator didn&#8217;t pick up in popularity from the get-go. Though its support functions are great, The Navigator is capable of incredible damage &#8211; not on its own, but rather thanks to its Exotic Catalyst. What the Catalyst does is allow <em>Destiny 2</em> players to create a Strand Grapple Tangle, which can have multiple uses. </p>
  91. <p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"none","adPosition":2,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":2,"nbrPlacementsScanned":3,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"actualCount":360} --></p>
  92. <p> True to its name, The Navigator potentially allows multiple players to Grapple to any place they want, but since Strand Grapple charges are refunded when grappling a Tangle, this can virtually be used infinite times to use an infinite number of Strand Grapple Melees. When used by <em>Destiny 2</em>&#8216;s Strand Titans, in particular, this Exotic can single-handedly allow players to melt all bosses, and it has been a highlight in speedruns of endgame content for a while now, including the more recent Warlord&#8217;s Ruin Dungeon. All classes can benefit from The Navigator, but Titans&#8217; focus on melee abilities gives them a massive edge, to the point that one can potentially solo bosses and other encounters with this type of build. </p>
  93. <p><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"before","adPosition":2,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":2,"nbrPlacementsScanned":3,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"isEarlyInjection":false,"actualCount":1093} --><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"after","adPosition":3,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":3,"nbrPlacementsScanned":3,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"isEarlyInjection":false,"actualCount":0} --><br />
  94. <!-- Repeatable debug data: {"isEarlyInjection":false,"currentRuleCount":1000,"actualCount":0,"hasActualCountMetThreshold":null,"countRemainingForInjection":null,"nextBlockCount":null,"hasCountRemainingForInjectionMetThreshold":null} --></p>

  98. <h3 id="how-things-may-change-for-the-navigator-after-the-final-shape-and-with-prismatic"> How Things May Change For The Navigator After The Final Shape and With Prismatic </h3>
  99. <p> <em>Destiny 2</em>&#8216;s The Navigator will most likely remain as is for the foreseeable future, as creating Grapple Tangles is part of its identity. However, there is a chance that seeing how out-of-this-world a Strand Titan&#8217;s DPS can be when using a single Navigator Grapple Tangle, the ability to have one&#8217;s grenade charge refunded upon using Strand Grapples on existing Tangles may be nerfed in The Final Shape or future releases. Melee Titan builds have time and again caused similar issues in the past due to how much they can scale, and The Navigator takes this to the next level. </p>
  100. <p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"none","adPosition":3,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":3,"nbrPlacementsScanned":4,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"actualCount":828} --><br />
  101. <!-- Repeatable debug data: {"isEarlyInjection":true,"currentRuleCount":1000,"actualCount":828,"hasActualCountMetThreshold":true,"countRemainingForInjection":172,"nextBlockCount":438,"hasCountRemainingForInjectionMetThreshold":true,"nextCount":1266} --></p>
  102. <p><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"before","adPosition":3,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":3,"nbrPlacementsScanned":4,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"isEarlyInjection":true,"actualCount":1000} --><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"after","adPosition":4,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":4,"nbrPlacementsScanned":4,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"isEarlyInjection":true,"actualCount":0} --></p>
  103. <p> Still, for the time being, Strand melee builds in <em>Destiny 2</em> can greatly benefit from The Navigator to spam Grapple Melees &#8211; be it for DPS or clearing adds. With the saga-ending expansion coming in just two months, it will be interesting to see if and how The Navigator will impact <em>Destiny 2</em>&#8216;s Prismatic subclasses in The Final Shape, considering Strand abilities will still be available across the board, albeit with limited access. </p>

  194. <p> An <em><strong>Elden Ring</strong></em> player discovered that a symbol featured on one of the critically acclaimed RPG&#8217;s shields possibly has a real-life counterpart. FromSoftware revealed in the past that while its latest work did not take inspiration from one game in particular, the studio was influenced by titles based on various mythologies. </p>

  197. <p> Much like other Soulsborne games, 2022&#8217;s <em>Elden Ring</em> offers a wide assortment of weapons and equipment that players can use as they journey through the vast, dangerous realm of The Lands Between. Among these is the Beast Crest Heater Shield, a Strength-scaling piece of gear that can be found in the game&#8217;s starting region of Limgrave. One <em>Elden Ring</em> player has realized that the icon inscribed on the shield resembles the heraldry of one of their country&#8217;s former kingdoms. </p>

  211. <p> In a post on the <em>Elden Ring</em> subreddit, user RazielTheVampire claimed that the lion symbol on the Beast Crest Heater Shield looks similar to the heraldry of the Kingdom of Leon, a past state in the Iberian Peninsula that is now part of Spain. The sigil featured on the item, which is considered to be among the best shields in <em>Elden Ring</em>, depicts a lion standing upright on its hind legs while its forepaws are raised. </p>

  216. <p> Community members pointed out that this symbol, known as a Lion Rampant, was a common heraldry that was associated with other old states, such as the Kingdom of Scotland. Aside from Europe, the icon can also be found in Africa and the Middle East, with the Lion Rampant still being featured on the coats of arms of countries like Spain and Tunisia. In FromSoftware&#8217;s game, this symbol is used by the followers of Godrick the Grafted, a character often regarded as one of <em>Elden Ring</em>&#8216;s easiest bosses. </p>

  223. <p> Veteran Japanese game developer Hidetaka Miyazaki, <em>Elden Ring</em>&#8216;s director, previously claimed that the popular RPG did not take inspiration from one game in particular. However, the FromSoftware president, who recently confirmed that the upcoming Shadow of the Erdtree DLC will be <em>Elden Ring</em>&#8216;s last, did reveal that he was influenced by other open-world titles like <em>The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild</em> and <em>The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt</em>. The former featured aspects of Celtic, Chinese, and Japanese mythologies, while the latter was heavily influenced by Slavic folklore. </p>

  309. <p> Shadow Suiciune is a pure Water-type Pokemon, which means it is weak only to <strong>Electric and Grass-type moves</strong>. Therefore, players should focus on using Pokemon which has those base types, as it would provide them with the best chances to take on the Pokemon with the same-type attack bonus. When it comes to its resistances, the Pokemon incurs lesser damage from <strong>Fire, Ice, Steel, and Water-type moves</strong>, so it is crucial to avoid such types altogether as they will be quite ineffective against Suicune. </p>

  616. <p> Plastoid is required not only for creating the Rebel Workbench but for upgrading the Rebel Outpost and crafting various buildings. As a result, players would quickly find themselves in need of this valuable resource, which can only be found in specific areas of the game. Here is where to find Plastoid in <em>LEGO Fortnite.</em> </p>

  627. <p> For gamers wondering how they can get Plastoid for building important items like the Rebel Workbench, the good news is that Plastoid is fairly abundant in the game. Right when users are given the task to clear the debris within the hologram in the Rebel Outpost, they will be able to get quite a bit of Plastoid. There are two main ways to get Plastoid in <em>LEGO Fortnite</em>: </p>
  628. <p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"none","adPosition":1,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":1,"nbrPlacementsScanned":2,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"actualCount":612} --></p>
  629. <ul>
  630. <li><strong>Defeat Stormtroopers</strong> </li>
  631. <li><strong>Break down certain <em>Star Wars</em> structures</strong> </li>
  632. </ul>
  633. <p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"none","adPosition":1,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":1,"nbrPlacementsScanned":2,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"actualCount":674} --></p>
  634. <p> Probably the best way to look for a structure that can yield Plastoid is by heading to one of those <em>Star Wars</em> areas and looking for large white boxes. They are found initially in the Rebel Outpost and should give players enough amount of resources required for crafting their Rebel Workbench. </p>
  635. <p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"none","adPosition":1,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":1,"nbrPlacementsScanned":2,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"actualCount":968} --><br />
  636. <!-- Repeatable debug data: {"isEarlyInjection":true,"currentRuleCount":1000,"actualCount":968,"hasActualCountMetThreshold":true,"countRemainingForInjection":32,"nextBlockCount":137,"hasCountRemainingForInjectionMetThreshold":true,"nextCount":1105} --></p>

  638. <p> If that doesn&#8217;t suffice, then looking for Stormtroopers is the next option, as they can yield quite a large amount of Plastoid too. </p>

  646. <p> If players are struggling to find the Stormtroopers, then the process is pretty simple. After gamers have spoken to Captain Bravara and received the Macrobinoculars, they will need to locate red markers on the map. These are quite abundant, so it shouldn&#8217;t be that hard to find them. </p>

  648. <p> Once users reach one of the Empire Bunkers, they will notice that the door is locked and requires a code. If players already have upgraded their Rebel Outpost to Level 6, they will be able to get the clearance code required to enter these bunkers. If not, then breaking through the bunker is the only way. </p>

  658. <p> Players would notice that regular weapons don&#8217;t work at all while trying to break through the doors. This is because the door can only be broken with a Lightsaber, which can be obtained through Captain Bravara or through one of these bunkers. The only thing gamers should be wary of is that these Stormtroopers are extremely powerful, so they should be well-equipped before taking them on. </p>

  721. <p> A joking post about a recently released <em>Call of Duty</em> skin has <strong><em>Destiny 2</em></strong> fans calling on Bungie to release some custom cosmetics in a similar vein. The new skin found in <em>Call of Duty</em> just so happens to look perfectly suited to be an armor set based on the <em>Destiny 2 </em>Stasis subclass. </p>

  724. <p> Most modern live-service games, including major titles like <em>Fortnite, Call of Duty, </em>and <em>Destiny 2</em>, make much of their revenue from selling cosmetic items like skins and accessories. This is in part because charging money for things with more concrete impacts on a player&#8217;s gameplay experience would quickly give rise to accusations that a game is pay-to-win, with players able to essentially buy advantages that give them a leg up on their opponents. Cosmetic items and skins also open up the possibility of entertaining and appealing crossovers with other brands. <em>Call of Duty</em> has been part of the crossover trend for years, announcing and releasing crossover cosmetic packs based on <em>Warhammer, Dune, </em>and <em>Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire</em>. </p>

  738. <p> <em>Call of Duty</em> received multiple <em>Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire</em> skin packs to promote the film, but the one based on the reptilian titan Shimo was what caught the attention of <em>Destiny 2 </em>players. Shimo is featured in the film as a major antagonist, a titan with the ability to control ice who apparently caused the last Ice Age. Shimo fights against Godzilla and Kong in some of the fiercest battles in the film, fighting as an underling of the game&#8217;s big bad, the Skar King. </p>

  744. <p> G01berG jokingly posted a screenshot of the Shimo-themed crossover skin, which is worn in <em>Call of Duty </em>by operator Byline, on the DestinyFashion subreddit, calling it a new Stasis-themed Hunter armor. In <em>Destiny 2</em>, the power of Stasis is represented by freezing ice crystals, and Stasis-based weapons and exotics involve prominent use of ice and frozen motifs. The <em>Destiny 2</em> Cadmus Ridge Lancecap Exotic, in fact, replaces a Titan&#8217;s entire face with a set of eerie jagged ice crystals. The <em>Call of Duty</em> Shimo skin and weapons cloak Byline in a tactical hood and armor made of shiny white reptile scales, covered in glowing ice crystals. </p>

  749. <p> Fellow fans quickly caught onto the &#8220;ruse,&#8221; and commented on how perfectly the Shimo skin suits the <em>Destiny 2 </em>Stasis subclass. Even the skin&#8217;s cloak and hood make it appropriate for a Hunter to wear, since cloaks are their class item. Players also commented that they wished the Shimo skin, or something like it, would show up in <em>Destiny 2</em> for players to use in their own builds. Bungie has sold armor sets based on the Light subclasses like Void, Solar, and Arc, but so far neither Stasis nor the newest <em>Destiny 2 </em>subclass of Strand have received bespoke, themed armor ornament sets. </p>

Players are limited to carrying just two weapons at any one time and, usually, one of those slots will be taken by the humble cutlass. </p>

  833. <p> Unlike some progression-based games, all the weapons are available to new players as soon as they start the game. The only real problem for each player is choosing a playstyle or finding the right weapon combination. Some combinations are good for specific <em>Sea of Thieves</em> adventures, while others are more well-rounded. There are pros and cons to each weapon though. </p>
  834. <p> <em><strong>Updated May 6th, 2024, by Gemma Johnson:</strong> Sea of Thieves gives players an arsenal of weapons and tools for their pirate adventures, from guns to throwables, and beyond. Sea of Thieves Season 12 introduces players to more exciting weapons, including throwing knives, a double-barrel pistol, tools like the Horn of Fair Winds to blow enemies off ships, and more. With so many new weapons, some players might be eager to know which are the <strong>best weapons in Sea of Thieves</strong>, especially given the most recent additions. Of course, every weapon comes with strengths and weaknesses, and no doubt many players have their preferred tactics, like double or perhaps even triple gunning. However, some weapons are more effective than others. There are also other Sea of Thieves weapons to look forward to, with the Harpoon gun on the horizon. This List has been updated to feature the weapons released in Sea of Thieves newest update, to showcase where they rank among the best weapons in the game.</em> </p>

  867. <p> <strong>Blunderbombs </strong>are a type of throwable <em>Sea of Thieves</em> weapon that explodes shrapnel upon impact, causing damage to players within a given AOE, albeit rather minimal as a weapon that focuses more on knock-back, such as knocking a player off a ship. They can be shot out of cannons as well as thrown, but players can only carry a limited supply of up to five at any one time, although players could buy or obtain more in the world. </p>
  868. <p> The main disadvantage of Blunderbombs is they only damage players, not ships, but could deploy some knock-back effects if deployed strategically. </p>

  900. <p> While not necessarily a fan-favorite, the <strong>Trident of Dark Tides </strong>offers some of the most varied shots when it comes to <em>Sea of Thieves</em>&#8216; best weapons. It fires small, medium, and large charged bubbles that damage and knock back enemies. The longer a player charges the weapon, the bigger the bubble will become. On one hand, it works well as a powerful, long-range weapon that also does splash damage, making it great for fighting multiple enemies. </p>
  901. <p> On the flip side, it&#8217;s weaker in close combat owning to its slow charge-up. Tridents also only contain 30 shots and will disappear once used. Players will also have to search the open game world for them as loot. </p>

  1028. <p> Although Season 11&#8217;s <strong>Skull of Siren Song</strong> is multi-functional, in many ways, it is more valuable as a treasure than as a weapon. While it looks extremely cool, it&#8217;s not a high-damage weapon, and doesn&#8217;t inflict as much damage as some players might expect. However, it does have some advantages over the Ashen Winds Skull, given that using it as a weapon doesn&#8217;t decrease its value in any way. Players can still sell it for a whopping 50,000, as potentially one of the best ways to make money in <em>Sea of Thieves</em>. </p>
  1029. <p> However, it can be time-consuming and challenging to acquire, especially when fighting or racing against other players for it. That said, it is possible to obtain the Skull of Siren Song without any opposition at all, so it&#8217;s worth a try, provided players are willing to become a potential target on the map in doing so. </p>

  1061. <p> The <strong>Bone Caller </strong>is, in many ways, one of the best weapons in <em>Sea of Thieves, </em>at least in the throwables category. When playing solo in<em> Sea of Thieves</em>, it&#8217;s a fantastic way to even the odds in combat when fighting groups of enemies. When thrown, it summons a group of skeletons to fight on players&#8217; behalf until they are destroyed, giving players their own personal skeleton army. Throwing the Bone Caller onto PVP is a fantastic distraction technique, potentially giving players time to quickly drop a ship&#8217;s anchor. </p>
  1062. <p> However, as it stands, there is no way to strengthen Bone Caller skeletons, so they don&#8217;t necessarily last that long. Although they have hilarious randomized name markers, it can sometimes also feel tricky to spot who is an enemy and who isn&#8217;t in skeleton battles amid the battle chaos, and throwing a second Bone Caller will just despawn the first one&#8217;s skeletons, rather than increasing their numbers. </p>

  1106. <p> <em>Sea of Thieves</em>&#8216; <strong>Double Barrel Pistol</strong> is essentially a cross between the Flintlock and Blunderbuss. It fires relatively quick, high-powered shots at close range without the Blunderbuss&#8217; often less accurate spray. It is also a versatile weapon, as it gives players the choice of whether to fire a single or double shot, or even team it with another gun for triple-gunning tactics. However, it&#8217;s not very effective at mid-to-long range, making the Flintlock a better weapon all-round. </p>
  1107. <p> Like Throwing Knives, players can also obtain different Double Barrel Pistol skins by completing various commendations and then buying the skins with in-game gold from any <em>Sea of Thieves</em> outpost. </p>

  1141. <p> <em>Sea of Thieves</em>&#8216; <strong>Throwing Knives</strong> are a fun alternative to the Cutlass, and may remind some players of using throwing knives in Rare&#8217;s classic FPS game,<em>Goldeneye</em>. Players have the option to throw up to five knives or attack with them through small stabs or a charged, high-powered swipe that&#8217;s perfect for stealth attacks. This makes them a versatile weapon that&#8217;s also pretty powerful with the ability to take out some enemies in a single throw, such as Coral Skeletons. </p>
  1142. <p> As long as players retrieve the knives when thrown, they&#8217;re also the only <em>Sea of Thieves</em> weapon with the potential for unlimited ammo. However, that&#8217;s assuming players can find them once thrown, as they can get lost in the environment or picked up by other players. They can also be more challenging to wield in combat compared to the Cutlass, especially against groups of foes. </p>

  1187. <p> Not everyone’s favorite gun, but a good staple for many starting in their pirate career that can be very effective. Everyone that begins <em>Sea of Thieves</em> will start automatically with a Cutlass and <strong>Flintlock pistol</strong>. The Flintlock should only be used at close- to mid-range due to its weakness at long-range, but when used well, it is powerful and can kill enemies in two shots. However, it has a notorious bullet drop and can be hard to master when fighting other players in <em>Sea of Thieves</em> PVP. </p>
  1188. <p> The Flintlock has a decent reload speed and can be fired accurately without having to aim down sights. One bullet could reduce a player&#8217;s health by around half, so it may only take two shots to kill them. One way to learn how to use this weapon effectively is to pick up a skin that offers iron sights, which helps considerably with aiming. </p>

  1221. <p> A step-up in damage and unpredictability, the <strong>Blunderbuss</strong> is a close-range execution in the hands of a skilled pirate. Many players will experience an enemy tucking on their ship and appearing from seemingly nowhere before aiming a blunderbuss. </p>
  1222. <p> This is a lesson that teaches many a new pirate about its power. From close range, it fires a spread of 10 bullets that will one-shot anyone if the distance is right. Aiming down sight will reduce the spread of the bullets, increasing its deadliness at close range. It is inconsistent to aim with, can be tricky in close range, and is next to useless at long range. Players will need to be cautious fighting against <em>Sea of Thieves</em> PVE enemies, with some skeletons masters of the weapon. </p>

  1268. <p> A close call above the Blunderbuss is the pirate classic, the <strong>Cutlass</strong>. The Cutlass is devastating when used correctly, but there is a skill and nuance to it. Many players begin sword fighting with a slash-and-hope method until they learn the timing. Slashes damage any enemies within reach in a wide arc, perfect for when players are fighting multiple enemies. </p>
  1269. <p> The Cutlass&#8217; heavy attack lunges the player forward causing deadline damage. It can be hard to time but devastating if it lands. Hitting an enemy with the Cutlass will also interrupt their actions, so landing chain hits will usually result in victory. Combined with gun combat, the Cutlass will often put the finishing touches on any <em>Sea Thieves</em> PVP battle. </p>

  1302. <p> The <strong>Eye of Reach </strong>is arguably the <em>Sea of Thieves&#8217; </em>best weapon yet, but in many ways, the hardest gun to master, albeit with the most rewards in terms of its skill cap. This pirate-themed sniper rifle is deadly at both long and short ranges. If a player can master a quick-scope mechanic or hip-firing then this gun can even beat the Blunderbuss in close-range combat. </p>
  1303. <p> At long range, it comfortably beats the Pistol in terms of bullet range, making it easier to predict shots. The downside is its slowest reload time, but one shot could damage a player’s health by around 70%. A quick Eye of Reach shot and Cutlass lunge is all it takes to end a fight. </p>

  1379. <p> A Play of the Game highlights one of the most essential players of any given <em>Overwatch 2</em> match. This play is showcased at the end of a match, and it typically focuses on a triple kill, a boop off the side of a map, or effective use of an Ultimate ability. Tank and Damage heroes are usually the center of these game-ending highlights, while Support characters are left to be endorsed or have their <em>Overwatch 2 </em>end-of-match<em> </em>card voted on based on their healing done. Despite this, Support heroes carry many matches and are often the reason a team wins. One player has shared a highlight that has sparked a conversation about the game highlighting more Support heroes in the Play of the Game. </p>

  1394. </p></div>
  1395. <p> Reddit user Jolly-Reward-2873 recently shared a video of a Highlight of the <em>Overwatch 2</em> hero Lifeweaver, who was introduced in Season 4. He offers impressive healing and utility output that are beneficial to teammates. The video takes place on the Colosseo map, and the players are fighting on a tight corner that the escorted robot has to turn for a team to win. An allied Baptiste is sent off the map by an enemy Lucio&#8217;s Soundwave before Liveweaver Life Grips them back and grows a Tree of Life. Lifeweaver then saves D.Va with some quick heals before countering a Zarya Ultimate ability with a Petal Platform, saving at least two players and possibly the game. </p>

  1398. <h2 id="why-wasn-39-t-this-highlight-an-overwatch-play-of-the-game"> Why Wasn&#8217;t This Highlight an Overwatch Play of the Game? </h2>
  1399. <p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"none","adPosition":2,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":2,"nbrPlacementsScanned":3,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"actualCount":601} --></p>
  1400. <p> Despite this impressive teamwork on Colosseo, Jolly-Reward-2873&#8217;s Highlight was not a Play of the Game. This has caused many fans to suggest that Blizzard should rework the Play of the Game system to consider more <em>Overwatch 2</em> Support hero plays. Not only did the Lifeweaver rescue Baptiste from certain death, but their D.Va heals and the timing of their Ultimate likely played a key role in this team&#8217;s success in fending off their opponents. This bend in the road is notorious in Colosseo for making or breaking matches for teams, and it&#8217;s unclear if this play helped the team reach victory. Lifeweaver Plays of the Game are incredibly rare, and the fact that this one didn&#8217;t make the cut hints at just how hard it is to get one. </p>
  1401. <p><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"before","adPosition":2,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":2,"nbrPlacementsScanned":3,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"isEarlyInjection":false,"actualCount":1350} --><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"after","adPosition":3,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":3,"nbrPlacementsScanned":3,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"isEarlyInjection":false,"actualCount":0} --><br />

  1404. <p> Because Plays of the Game sometimes include pushing players off the side of the map, they aren&#8217;t entirely driven by the number of kills a player gets in a short period of time. As Blizzard continues to update <em>Overwatch 2</em>, it may implement a system that favors Support heroes more than the current one. </p>

  1487. <p> PlayStation has announced that it no longer plans to push the controversial <strong><em>Helldivers 2</em></strong> PlayStation Network account-linking update. The <em>Helldivers 2</em> community was rocked by controversy after it was announced that PC users would have to link their Steam account to Sony&#8217;s PlayStation Network by June if they wanted to continue playing the game. However, the resulting public outcry has seemingly convinced the publisher to rescind its decision. </p>

  1490. <p> In contrast to the overwhelmingly positive reception it received in the weeks following its release, <em>Helldivers 2</em> has been the subject of widespread criticism from its own player base recently, with fans largely blindsided when developer Arrowhead Game Studios announced it would start requiring PC users to link their Steam account to PSN after a month-long grace period. The extreme public backlash was even severe enough to catch the attention of the developers, with members reportedly hosting internal discussions regarding how to resolve <em>Helldivers 2</em>&#8216;s biggest controversy since its release and negotiable possible alternatives with publisher Sony. </p>

  1504. <p> Now, it seems the negotiations have borne fruit, and the wave of negative reviews for <em>Helldivers 2</em> and calls for refunds have convinced the publisher to rethink its stipulations. The official PlayStation account on Twitter shared a post stating that it was scrapping plans for the account-linking update and that players will be able to continue spreading managed democracy without a PSN account for the foreseeable future. PlayStation concluded the post by additionally thanking PC players for their feedback and promising to keep them updated on future developments for Arrowhead Game Studios&#8217; hit PvE cooperative shooter. </p>

  1510. <p> Fans were overjoyed by the announcement, with the majority of users calling it a collective win for the player base as a whole. However, there were also some who remained concerned over the game&#8217;s future. Several commenters were particularly worried whether this meant Sony had learned its lesson or if this recent victory for the fans was only delaying the implementation of an account-linking requirement to a later date. There were additionally users who questioned if this meant <em>Helldivers 2</em> would return to the 177 regions where sales were discontinued. </p>

  1618. <p> Although it may seem complicated at first, weapon customization is actually an easy process, especially if you have at least a little understanding of how it works. Next, we&#8217;ll explain in more detail how to add new attachments to your weapon and what problems you might encounter while customizing it. So, to add new attachments to your weapon, you&#8217;ll first need to open the customization menu. To do this, follow these steps: </p>

  1620. <ul>
  1621. <li> Open the menu by pressing the Tab key. </li>
  1622. <li> Go to your inventory by clicking on the Character button in the top section of the menu. </li>
  1623. <li> Find the weapon you want to customize and right-click on it to open the drop-down list. </li>
  1624. <li> Among the options, select the first one that says Inspect. </li>
  1625. </ul>
  1626. <p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {"injection":"none","adPosition":1,"startingPoint":1,"skipEvery":null,"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip":1,"nbrPlacementsScanned":2,"ruleCount":1000,"degradationStartingPoint":2,"stopAds":null,"actualCount":716} --></p>
  1627. <p> This way you will open a separate submenu with all the information about your weapon. In the lower section of the menu, you will see empty or occupied slots where you can place or replace the desired attachments. To add a new attachment to your weapon, simply drag it to the desired slot. In some cases, this may not work because some already installed attachments conflict with the new ones you want to add or replace. </p>

  1630. <p> For example, to add the EXPS2 Holographic Sight to the M4A1, you will first need to remove the Carrying Handle, as it takes up part of the top rail where the sight should be. If you remove the Carrying Handle, you will free up space on the top rail and will be able to add the sight. </p>

  1652. <p> So, if you&#8217;ve already figured out how to customize your weapons, you&#8217;ll probably want to get as many attachments as you can to create the best possible build. This can be done by the Gunny vendor, who sells everything related to weapons, including attachments and even precious weapon parts. </p>

  1654. <p> Before you buy anything, it is recommended that you maximize your reputation with this vendor by completing several missions that he will give you. You will find more vendors in the future, but Gunny is the best option. </p>

  1746. <p> Before you set out to find He Who Was, you will first need to complete Act 1 of <em>Baldur&#8217;s Gate 3</em> in its entirety, including areas such as the Underdark and Mountain Pass. This is to ensure you are at the appropriate level to progress forward in the story and have wrapped up any other loose ends or side quests that you wish to complete beforehand. </p>

  1748. <p> Once you have progressed into Act 2, you can find He Who Was in the Shadow-Cursed Lands, a short distance away from his makeshift campsite. This location is East of Last Light Inn, up the hills, and should be pretty easy to find as long as you follow the path, passing the dead Shadow-Cursed raven along the way. </p>
