To provide players with more cost-effective gaming products and services, IGGM platform has officially launched a brand-new points system, designed to let you enjoy a superior shopping experience while spending less! Below, we break down everything you need to know: how to earn points efficiently, use them for discounts or to redeem exciting rewards, and stack VIP benefits to maximize your savings. Before Using the Points System - Registration Required Please note that IGGM's new points system is available only to registered and logged-in users. If you haven't registered or logged in yet, you will need to do so to access Check-in and Points pages. How to Earn Points? Accumulating points at IGGM is simple and straightforward, primarily through two channels: daily check-ins and order rewards. 1. Daily Check-in Simply click the "Check In Today" button on the IGGM Check-in Center page to complete your check-in; once the button changes to "️Checked In (Come back tomorrow)," your points have been successfully credited! Alternatively, you can also check in by clicking the current date on the calendar. Please note that your check-in time is based on the time zone used when you registered your IGGM account. For example, if you registered your account in PDT (UTC-08:00) time zone, you can only complete the check-in within that time zone on the day in question. You can view your account registration date on My Profile or Check-in page to ensure you don't miss a check-in! One-tap check-in (Easter egg) There's a little Easter egg here! If you forget to check in for the day and land straight on the coupon redemption page, just tap the "little rocket" emoji at the bottom of the list to check in instantly - no need to navigate back to the Check-in Center. You'll still get those incremental rewards for consecutive check-ins. Please note the visual differences between PC and mobile versions! For PC users, the small rocket only begins to shake and emit flames when you hover your cursor over it; a single click launches the rocket and credits your check-in points. For mobile users, the rocket icon shakes continuously—simply tap it to check in and earn your points instantly! Other Check-in Entry In addition, IGGM provides the following access points for quick and convenient daily check-ins: 1. Click "Go Now" on the coupon redemption page to visit the check-in center. 2. Click the coupon section at the bottom of the homepage to access the check-in center. 3. Click the banner at the bottom of any product page on IGGM to access the check-in center. 4. Quickly access the Check-in Center via the My Account → My Orders page. Incremental Rewards for Consecutive Check-ins IGGM's check-in system rewards consistency. If you check in without interruption, your daily points will increase over time: 5 points on the first day, 6 points on the second, and 8 points on the third. From the fourth day onwards, as long as you maintain your streak, you will consistently receive the maximum reward of 10 points per day. Notes: If you check in via the check-in banner on the product page during your shopping journey, you can return to your original page via Back Shopping at the bottom after completing the check-in and triggering the points accumulation. You don't have to worry about your shopping progress being affected! Reset Upon Interruption If you miss a day or break your streak for any reason, your progress will reset to zero. Your next check-in will start back at the Day 1 rate of 5 points. Please note that the daily check-in reset is based on the server's time zone; be sure to check in on time to avoid losing progress due to network issues or other interruptions. 2. Points for Orders Additionally, whenever you make an order on the IGGM platform, the system will award you points based on your subtotal amount. Point Accrual Rate: $1 = 1 Point Under standard conditions, every $1 of your actual spending converts directly into 1 point. To simplify calculations for order amounts involving decimals, IGGM rounds to the nearest whole number when determining the points earned. For example, if you pay $17.35, you receive 17 points; if you pay $34.86, you receive 35 points. To ensure system efficiency for small transactions, the subtotal amount paid for an order must be at least $1 to trigger point accrual; orders under $1 do not generate any points. Furthermore, points for all orders will be automatically credited to your account by the system only after the order status has officially changed to "Completed"; the number of points corresponds to the amount of the qualifying purchase. Please note that orders completed without logging into your IGGM account will not be awarded points. Therefore, if you want to earn points to redeem for more offers, register and log into your account now! New User Perk: 10x Point Rewards IGGM has a welcome gift for new users! Your first paid order on IGGM automatically qualifies for a generous 10x points reward. However, if your first order's subtotal is less than $1, you will not receive any points, and your first-order privilege as a new user will be used up. Therefore, IGGM recommends buying higher-value items you need during your first order to make the most of the 10x point reward. Due to the significant value of this offer, points for the first order will be credited after the order is successfully delivered and passes a security review, provided no refund occurs within 24 hours. You can view the specific points added upon completion in the My Account → My Orders section of IGGM.com. If you have just completed a payment but do not see the points immediately, please do not worry - simply wait a short while. Point Value and Validity Understanding the value of your points helps you make the best use of them. In the IGGM point system, 100 points = $1 (meaning each point is worth approximately $0.01). Please note that points are not valid indefinitely; each point expires 90 days from the date it was earned. IGGM employs a user-friendly rolling expiration policy: points earned on Day 1 will expire at the end of Day 91. The specific calculation time for rolling expiration depends on the time zone of your account's IP address. You can check for notifications regarding points nearing expiration on the "My Points" page of your account at any time to ensure you don't miss out on benefits. Multiple Ways to Use Points: Direct Cash Deduction and Coupon Exchange When buying items on IGGM, you can choose to use your accumulated points to directly offset the cash cost of your order or exchange them for significant discounts at IGGM Coupon Redemption Center. The choice is entirely yours! Option A: Direct Cash Deduction at Checkout On the checkout page, you can use the points in your account balance to reduce the cost of your current order. The proportion of the order total that can be offset by points is directly linked to your order subtotal. Please refer to the table below for specific deduction ratios based on order subtotal ranges: Order Subtotal Range Max Point Deduction Ratio $1.00 - $9.99 5% $10.00 - $49.99 8% $50.00+ 10% Important notes on using points for cash deductions: Points are awarded only for successfully completed orders; orders that are voluntarily cancelled, flagged for suspected fraud, or fully refunded are not eligible for points; Points for your first order are not credited immediately; they will be issued within 24 hours after successful delivery, provided no refund has occurred; If an order involving points undergoes a partial refund, the system will deduct the corresponding points (rounded based on the refund amount) and return any points that were consumed. Returned Consumed Points = Consumed Points × (Refund Amount / Subtotal Amount); Points can be used in conjunction with VIP discounts; Cannot be used in conjunction with discount codes or cash coupons; Cannot be exchanged for cash; Cannot be withdrawn as cash; Cannot be transferred between accounts; IGGM.com reserves the right of final interpretation for all points-related policies. Option B: Redeem Discount Codes or Cash Coupons You can also visit the points redemption page to exchange points (in tiers ranging from 100 to 500 points) for discount codes (various rates) or cash coupons (subject to minimum order requirements). For example, the $10 cash coupon can only be used if your order's subtotal amount is $95 or more. If your subtotal is less than $95, the coupon will not automatically appear at checkout. Points Spent Discount Code Cash Coupon (Min. Order Req.) 100 3% $1 (Order ≥ $10) 200 4% $3 (Order ≥ $30) 300 5% $5 (Order ≥ $50) 400 8% $8 (Order ≥ $80) 500 10% $10 (Order ≥ $95) By the way, if you forget to check in for the day, the little rocket emoji on this coupon page is your quick way to do so!

Elden Ring has arrived on Switch 2 with Tarnished Pack, along with a balance update released after an entire year. However, the most noteworthy addition is undoubtedly the new weapons and armor introduced with Tarnished Pack. Tarnished Pack adds a total of seven new weapons. 5 are infusible weapons upgraded with Smithing Stones, while the other 2 are upgraded with Somber Smithing Stones. Here is how to obtain each weapon and what they are primarily used for. Here are All New Weapons: Hefty Scimitar Reverse-Bladed Sword Idus Sword Reed Great Katana Ritual Thrusting Shield Leontiel's Greatsword Golden Order Flail Hefty Scimitar Hefty Scimitar is included in the starting equipment when choosing Heavy Knight starting class. Alternatively, it can be obtained from Nomadic Merchant in Limgrave. Hefty Scimitar is the only infusible Curved Greatsword in the base game that can be obtained without farming for a drop. Other weapons in this category either require enemy drops or, like Freyja's Greatsword, require progressing deep into DLC Shadow of the Erdtree before they can be obtained. Hefty Scimitar category as a whole does not see much use because it is generally outperformed by standard Greatswords. Compared with Curved Greatswords, it deals slightly more damage and has a longer attack range while dealing Slashing damage, but its attack speed is somewhat slower. Standard Greatswords, on the other hand, attack faster, offer more Ash of War options, and include thrusting attacks. Hefty Scimitar has one of the shortest ranges among weapons in its category, and outside of Heavy affinity, its damage is the lowest in the category across all other affinities. However, with Heavy affinity, its damage can surpass Dismounter. Reverse-Bladed Sword This weapon can be obtained from Twin Maiden Husks in Roundtable Hold. Reverse-Bladed Sword is the only obtainable weapon of its type in the base game. It has exactly the same moveset and range as Backhand Blades from DLC. The main difference is that Reverse-Bladed Sword has higher base damage but weaker scaling, while Backhand Blades have lower base damage but better scaling. It is worth noting that Reverse-Bladed Sword performs better than Backhand Blades with Cold affinity. This is because Backhand Blades lean more heavily toward Intelligence scaling with Cold, while Reverse-Bladed Sword gains better scaling from Strength and Dexterity. Idus Sword Idus Sword is included as starting equipment when choosing Idus Knight starting class. Alternatively, it can be picked up in the starting area of Liurnia, past the first merchant. Idus Sword is the second infusible Light Greatsword in the game. Its role is very similar to that of Reverse-Bladed Sword, essentially serving as an early-game base-game version of Milady from DLC. The two weapons have nearly identical movesets, models, and ranges. It is worth noting that Idus Sword cannot surpass Milady's damage with any affinity, and it is also heavier. Its only advantage is that it has slightly lower attribute requirements, which is not enough to make up for the damage difference. Reed Great Katana This Great Katana can be picked up in Dragonbarrow area of Caelid, north of Fort Faroth. Like the weapons mentioned above, Reed Great Katana is essentially an early-game base-game version of Great Katanas from DLC. It has higher base damage, slightly weaker scaling, a somewhat shorter range, and slightly greater weight. However, its damage can surpass standard Great Katanas when using elemental affinities. Great Katanas do not scale particularly well with elemental affinities, while Reed Great Katana takes advantage of its exceptionally high base damage to gain an edge in this area. Therefore, if you plan to build around Faith or Intelligence and want to use a Great Katana, Reed Great Katana is the better choice. Although it has a slightly shorter range and weighs a little more, its lower requirements and higher damage make for a worthwhile trade-off. Ritual Thrusting Shield Ritual Thrusting Shield can be found at Caelid Colosseum, the location with the enormous Warrior Jar where you can be invaded by three random players. Ritual Thrusting Shield is a strict downgrade from Dueling Shield in DLC. Its damage is lower with every affinity, while its guard damage negation and Guard Boost are also worse. For Thrusting Shields, Guard Boost is the most important attribute because their core gameplay is not about dealing damage. Instead, they allow players to block and attack simultaneously, making use of Guard Counters or two-handed shield pokes. The strength of their defensive capabilities directly determines how effective the weapon is. Silver Grooved Shield Silver Grooved Shield comes as part of Idus Knight's starting equipment. It can also be obtained from the merchant at Bellum Church in northern Liurnia of the Lakes using Elden Ring runes. Silver Grooved Shield is a Medium Shield with 100% physical damage negation. Although its guard damage negation and Guard Boost are lower than those of most Medium Shields, it is the lightest shield in the game that provides 100% physical damage negation, making it worth considering when Endurance is limited. Leontiel's Greatsword Leontiel's Greatsword can be obtained by defeating the newly added NPC invader Leontiel. The invasion takes place at Radahn's boss arena. This Greatsword is a spiritual successor to Mirror Greatsword from Dark Souls II and Hollowslayer Greatsword from Dark Souls III. It not only inherits similar movesets, but also introduces a completely new dodge and counterattack mechanic through its Ash of War. Leontiel's Greatsword has an Ash of War called Muleta. It is a stance-based skill that allows the player to choose between a Light Attack input and a Heavy Attack input after entering the stance, triggering two different attack follow-ups. Both attacks begin with a pirouette. The light attack follow-up causes the character to dodge to the left before delivering an extremely fast slash. The heavy attack follow-up causes the character to dodge to the right and then perform a slower but extremely powerful thrusting poke. After using the heavy attack follow-up, an additional attack input can trigger a follow-up attack, making the sequence particularly powerful. Golden Order Flail To obtain Golden Order Flail, you must first learn Law of Regression and then use it in front of Radagon's statue in Leyndell, Royal Capital, and triggers an invasion event. Defeat the invader to obtain the weapon. Its Ash of War, Causality's Wrath, is a buff-type skill. The first cast applies a 90s buff to the character, and casting the skill again while the buff is active releases an AoE attack. While the buff is active, damage taken by the player charges the skill, and every attack received adds to the charge. The skill has three levels based on the number of hits taken, with the maximum level capable of knocking smaller enemies into the air. You can use a shield with around 90% or higher physical damage negation, without reaching 100%, to charge Golden Order Flail. However, Guard Counter build is not particularly consistent and requires a certain level of skill to master. That covers the acquisition methods and damage performance of all the new weapons in Elden Ring Tarnished Pack. To be honest, they are not particularly overpowered, as there are many weapons in both the base game and DLC that perform better than them.
