General News

Tycoons! After furiously swinging your pickaxes during Beauty and the Treasures mining event over the past two days, have your dice reserves run dry? Are you worried you won't have enough resources to participate in the upcoming Villainous Partners event? Don't panic, the brand-new Sorcery Special banner event has just landed in Monopoly Go!

The theme of this event is steeped in magic, whisking us away to a mysterious world filled with spells and wonders. More importantly, it presents a fantastic opportunity for you to recharge and stockpile dice for the week ahead.

Event Duration

Sorcery Special event runs from 10:00 AM PT on Friday, May 2, 2026, until 9:59 AM PT on Sunday, May 4.

This two-day Sorcery Special is packed with value. Rather than being designed for intense leaderboard competition, it serves as an excellent opportunity for players to hoard resources in preparation for the upcoming Villainous Partners event. Furthermore, with the Monopoly Ever After album now past its halfway point, every event offers a prime opportunity to collect Monopoly Go stickers and make progress toward completing your album!

How to play?

As always, the scoring mechanism for Sorcery Special relies on random pickup tiles scattered across the board. Every time you land on a Chance or Community Chest tile, you earn 1 base point.

Don't forget about the concurrent Monopoly Go tournament! If your token lands on a Railroad tile, you not only advance your progress in the tournament but also snag 2 points for the banner event, killing two birds with one stone.

If you have a healthy supply of dice, activating a high multiplier is a great way to rack up points quickly, as your base points are multiplied by your current dice multiplier.

However, remember not to mindlessly leave your multiplier on full blast the entire time! The smartest strategy is to play it patiently: wait for the right moment. The odds of landing on a pickup or Railroad tile are highest when you are approximately 6–8 spaces away; that is the optimal time to crank your multiplier up to the max.

Sorcery Special Event Rewards Overview

Want to clear out all 62 milestones in this event? You'll likely need to have approximately 15,000+ dice at the ready. Honestly speaking, unless you are a top-tier player, aiming to collect everything isn't really worth it.

The event rewards total:

• 18,205 Dice
• Pink Sticker Pack (If you're looking to complete your Monopoly Ever After Album, this is exactly where you need to look!)
• Massive Cash Rewards
• Special Buffs: Including Cash Boosts, Mega Heists, and everyone's favorite: Color Wheel Boost!

Don't chase the leaderboard blindly!

I've done the math for you, and the recommended stop-loss point, where you cut your losses and cash out, is at Milestone 35. By reaching this point, you only need to expend a moderate amount of dice to walk away with approximately 4,180 dice and the majority of the basic rewards, including all the sticker packs. This offers the absolute best value for your investment.

Once you pass Level 36, the point requirements seem to double exponentially, almost like magic! If you currently have fewer than 5,000 dice in your inventory, I highly recommend stopping once you've claimed the 1,000-dice reward at Level 35.

Of course, if you have an ample supply of dice, you could choose to push on to Level 48; after all, there's a massive reward of 1,650 dice waiting there. However, beyond Level 48, the point inflation becomes absolutely absurd. In particular, claiming the last reward of 5,000 dice requires a mind-boggling 10,675 points! Unless you are specifically aiming for a top spot on the leaderboard or are just a hair's breadth away from a major prize, continuing past this point is a complete waste of resources.

Additionally, whether or not you land on point-scoring tiles is largely a matter of luck. If you roll three times in a row without landing on any Pickup tiles or Railroad tiles, I suggest taking a five-minute break to reset your luck before trying again.

Best of luck to everyone on this magical journey, may your dice multiply with every roll, and may you return home with a full haul of stickers!

By the way, Villainous Partners event is starting soon! Aside from having enough dice and tokens ready, having a good teammate is the key factor in determining whether you'll make it to the top of the podium. If you haven't found a like-minded partner yet, Monopoly Go Villainous Partner Event Full Carry services for sale at IGGM can give you the helping hand you need. Our professional players can help you sweep up all the rewards completely stress-free!

With every major update, the in-game item market in ARC Raiders undergoes a complete reshuffle. Following Riven Tides update, a rare material known as Processor has once again surged to become one of the hottest items in the game!

This resurgence is entirely thanks to Riven Tides update, introducing several brand-new pieces of gear and utility devices. Whether it's Powered Descender or Dockmaster's Detector, both crafting and maintenance require the consumption of rare materials, such as Processor.

More importantly, ARC Raiders Riven Tides update introduced a repair on upgrade feature: now, upgrading a weapon restores 25% of its durability. Consequently, players no longer upgrade their gear solely to boost stats; instead, they view upgrading as a strategic tool to ensure their favorite high-tier weapons remain operational, thereby avoiding the hefty cost of paying for separate repairs. And when performing these upgrades on high-tier weapons, Processor serves as an absolutely indispensable core component.

Given this situation, the market for processors in ARC Raiders is currently facing a severe supply shortage. If you're fed up with constantly running low on this crucial resource, don't worry, we're here to show you the single most efficient route for farming this rare material!

Other Resources to Scavenge

However, before we jump into a match and show you the specific route, there are a few things I'd like you to keep in mind. During our farming runs, there are several specific items we should prioritize collecting: Exodus Modules, Rotary Encoders, Alarm Clocks, Projectors, Telemetry Transceivers, and Broken Guidance Systems. If you come across any of these items, be sure to stash them safely in your inventory; we can process them all for recycling once we return to base.

We can recycle these items to convert them into Exodus Modules, which can then be further converted into Processors we need. This is a crucial strategy for maximizing the overall efficiency of our resource gathering efforts.

The Farming Route

Now that we've covered all the necessary preliminaries, it's time to load up Stella Montis map. You actually don't need to bring any loadout gear into the match at all. If your sole objective for this run is to farm ARC Raiders Processors, you can even enter the match naked, meaning you bring absolutely nothing with you. This way, if you happen to spawn in a poor location or load into the match too late, you can simply reset the game and reload immediately.

Now, our objective is Stella Montis, let's make a full sprint for it! Once you've successfully loaded into the match, your top priority should be Assembly and Medical Research areas; these places are absolutely teeming with those rare pink-tier materials.

Assembly

As we venture deep into Assembly sector of ARC Raiders, proceed with extreme caution to avoid being taken out by enemies that might suddenly spawn nearby. If you spot any pink-tier loot, be sure to grab it immediately. In addition to hunting for the supplies mentioned earlier, this area serves as our primary source for acquiring Processors. Remember to search every single server rack you come across; while they don't yield loot 100% of the time, you'll find a Processor in almost every other one you check.

Once you've finished looting most of Assembly area, don't forget to scour all the small containers scattered throughout the zone. Additionally, before you leave, keep an eye out for a small destructible doorway here; loot will occasionally spawn behind it. If luck is on your side, you might even stumble upon a high-valuable ARC Raiders blueprint.

Medical Area

With Assembly area fully looted, let's head over to Medical sector. Upon entering the room, be sure to check the medical carts scattered around; sometimes, other Raiders will leave valuable items sitting on them, allowing you to conveniently scoop up the leftovers from their own looting runs. Also, remember to inspect the small computer terminals found here, as they will sometimes contain hidden Processors.

Sandbox Area

Alright, next up is Sandbox area within Stella Montis. However, a word of caution: try your best to steer clear of Shredders. While you are certainly capable of defeating these heavily armored ARC machines, spending your time fighting them will only hinder the efficiency of your farming run.

After skirting around Shredders, you'll spot a small room known as Control Room A3. Located right next to Sandbox area, this room typically contains server racks and the valuable resources you're looking for.

Once you've finished looting this room, head toward Metro Station, then make a right turn into the small adjacent room. You can check the computer terminals inside to see if there are any processors waiting for you.

With that taken care of, we'll retrace our steps back to Sandbox area; our ultimate destination there is Seed Vault. Beyond the seeds implied by its name, this area frequently conceals various electronic components, making it an ideal location for farming ARC Raiders Processors. However, please note: since Seed Vault is often a contested hotspot for various factions, be sure to stay prepared to engage in combat at any moment, whether against other players or hostile ARC forces.

Next, turn left and enter Control Room A1. Inside, you'll find several Processors you can loot; while you're at it, don't forget to check the computer terminals. Maintain your vigilance, though, as the room may be occupied by ARC Pops, so tread carefully. It's best to clear them out first.

Cultural Archives

Our next stop is ARC Raiders Cultural Archives. There's a shortcut here: head back to where we just came from, specifically near the exit of Seed Vault. Turn left and follow the path; ahead, you'll see a zipline leading to Cultural Archives. Take the zipline up one level, and you've arrived.

Be warned, however: nine times out of ten, this area will be swarming with Pops, Ticks, Shredders, and Fireballs, so proceed with extreme caution.

As we reach roughly the midpoint of the area, you'll spot several servers situated in an open space. Remember to grab all that valuable loot. If you enter the room immediately adjacent to these servers, you'll find even more resources to scavenge, potentially in substantial quantities. So, be sure to strip the place bare and give the entire room a thorough looting.

If you head over to this specific section of the room, you'll discover that these devices can actually be dismantled; they, too, may be concealing Processors. Sometimes, simply dismantling the devices in this small corner alone can yield 8 to 10 Processors, an absolutely fantastic haul!

Since we're already at Cultural Archives, you can also follow the corridor to the very end, then head up and enter the small room located there, which houses a few more servers. We'll clear out all the supplies in this room, then make our immediate extraction.

The Final Profit

With everything completed and having returned to ARC Raiders Speranza base, it's time to tally up exactly what we managed to harvest during this run. In less than 30 minutes, we managed to scavenge eight full stacks of Processors, and when combined with our recovered materials, our grand total for this trip comes to 41 Processors!

And that's not even counting the loot we didn't grab, we didn't get greedy and strip the place of every single pink-tier rare item. So, the actual amount of resources you could potentially acquire is even greater! In any case, follow our scavenging route to clear out all Assembly and Medical areas, and let those rare Processors fill up your backpack!

In Diablo 4 Season 13, Mephisto returns to Sanctuary, emerging as the new dominant force atop Boss Ladder! In Season of Reckoning, Mephisto is undoubtedly the greatest challenge you will face; this boss is notorious for his astronomically inflated damage numbers, his ruthless demands on character mobility, and his unforgiving one-shot kill mechanics. Without a doubt, he is destined to become every player's nightmare!

Want to survive? Stop stacking useless defensive stats, running is your only salvation! If you don't possess exceptional movement skills like Nether Step or Teleport, we suggest you just portal back to town; without the necessary footwork, you aren't even worthy of standing in his presence. Of course, if you insist on going toe-to-toe, victory isn't entirely out of reach. Let us guide you through a breakdown of all of Mephisto's lethal moves, that first kill achievement is as good as ours!

Phase 1 Battle

First off, Mephisto boss fight is divided into two distinct phases. In Phase 1, you will face Mephisto we all know and love, specifically his classic form from Diablo 2.

For his first attack, Mephisto summons a barrage of fireballs to rain down upon you. As this ability is cast, small black circles will appear on the ground, marking the exact landing zones for the fireballs; be sure to dodge them with extreme caution.

Please note: once this attack sequence begins, it persists for several seconds. This means you must maintain constant movement until no new circles appear on the ground.

For his second attack, Mephisto raises both arms, causing his hands to immediately begin glowing with a crimson light. He then proceeds to launch a volley of smaller fireballs in your direction. These fireballs possess a homing effect, so you must move swiftly to create distance until they dissipate on their own.

For his third attack, he creates several pools of poison in his immediate vicinity; these pools then erupt, sending waves of toxic venom spewing out in all directions. When he casts this ability, you will find it extremely difficult to get close enough to Mephisto to deal damage. 

During his fourth attack, Mephisto triggers a massive red explosion that engulfs the entire arena. Immediately following this, and accompanied by the sudden appearance of corpses, countless red spikes will erupt from the ground. A few seconds later, these corpses will explode, spawning homing fireballs, which will make a beeline straight for you. This is the moment to put your character's mobility to the test; immediately activate Nether Step and Teleport to dodge and save your life.

For his fifth attack, Mephisto unleashes rings of red lightning that radiate outward. These lightning rings first expand outward before contracting back inward; therefore, you must closely observe their movement patterns and attempt to weave through the gaps between them. Once again, you will need to time your dodges with precision or utilize your movement skills at just the right moment.

If you are playing as a Warlock, I strongly recommend adding extra charges to your Nether Step ability; at critical junctures, this skill can truly be a lifesaver.

Continue your relentless assault on Mephisto, and do not hesitate to consume health potions during this process; as his health bar dwindles, the frequency with which he unleashes his various attacks will increase dramatically.

Once Mephisto's health has been whittled down to approximately 33%, he will unleash his most lethal strike: he hurls a mass of red corpses into the pools of blood surrounding the arena. Immediately thereafter, serpentine red creatures will surge forth from the blood pools and slither across the entire arena.

From this point onward, Mephisto will begin combining all of his various attacks into a chaotic barrage. However, his attacks now follow no discernible pattern, so your only recourse is to rely on your movement skills to desperately scramble for survival.

When you land the final blow, the entire screen will instantly plunge into darkness. The boss has not yet fallen; rather, the real show is just about to begin.

Phase 2 Battle

Welcome to Phase 2! The battle ahead is about to become absolutely chaotic. You will be teleported to a massive, dark arena, a vast pool constructed entirely of blood, where you will face Mephisto head-on. It is worth noting that the combat area in the second phase is significantly smaller than in the first. This works to the boss's advantage, as he can utilize area-of-effect attacks to instantly pull you toward him, thereby putting your mobility skills to the test.

Upon entering this zone, the first detail you will probably notice is that Mephisto possesses the ability to seal off your skills. Once a red circular marker appears around your skill icons, it signifies that you are currently unable to use those specific skills. The only way to regain access to your sealed skills is to head to the specific locations marked on your mini-map and collect the orbs that spawn there.

You might be wondering: exactly how many skills can Mephisto seal at once? I must say that this is entirely random; if luck isn't on your side, he could even disable all of your skills!

Regardless of the situation, the moment you discover that your skills are missing, your top priority must always be to regain your powers immediately. Now, let's take a look at his new set of attacks.

For his first attack, Mephisto slams his fist violently into the pool, causing massive spikes to erupt from the water. Be extremely careful to dodge this, as being struck by it will almost certainly result in instant death.

Mephisto's second move unleashes several red Serpents of Hatred. These serpents will crisscross the battlefield, so you must position yourself carefully to avoid getting trapped and cornered at the points where their paths intersect.

In his third attack, the boss Mephisto swings his arm in a sweeping motion across the entire arena. His fourth move appears similar, but he will first charge up his power before launching a fierce, long-range claw swipe.

After executing a few attacks, he will submerge himself beneath the water, only to resurface moments later accompanied by several corpses. That's right! Just like in the previous phase, these corpses will explode after a few seconds, releasing a volley of fireballs that automatically home in on your location.

Moving on to his fifth attack, Mephisto generates a massive shockwave. If you are struck by this shockwave, you will be stunned, leaving you completely defenseless and highly vulnerable to taking heavy damage from his subsequent attacks. When Mephisto's health is reduced to approximately 66%, several massive faces will surge up from the bottom of the blood pool, spewing fireballs from their mouths to attack the boss.

However, do not let your guard down, as Mephisto will quickly gather all his energy to unleash a barrage of fireballs at you from his chest. Furthermore, he will rotate his torso to track your position, so be sure to keep moving until the fireball onslaught has completely ceased.

During the sixth wave of attacks, Mephisto will summon an increased number of red lightning bolts, striking with pinpoint accuracy at your current location.

Once his health drops to around 50%, Mephisto will submerge himself in the pool once again; this time, however, he will generate a massive whirlpool on the water's surface. Naturally, this ability will forcibly drag you toward the center of the vortex; therefore, you must utilize a movement skill to make a swift escape, otherwise death is inevitable.

Subsequently, a colossal visage of Mephisto will emerge from the pool and snap its jaws; if you happen to be within close proximity at that moment, you will be instantly killed. Thus, avoid the urge to blindly charge in and brawl; instead, practice patience, keep moving, maintain consistent damage output, use Healing Potions to recover health when necessary, and wait patiently for the optimal moment to strike.

When Mephisto's health falls to approximately 33%, the sky will abruptly turn blood-red, accompanied by a violent burst of lightning, a clear sign that victory is now within reach.

In this final phase, he will unleash every one of his offensive abilities simultaneously. We recommend employing a hit-and-run strategy, or remaining in constant motion while dealing damage to him from a safe distance. The key is this: never stop moving and exercise extreme patience.

Persevere in the battle until you finally deliver the killing blow. At that moment, blinding light will erupt from within Mephisto's body, continuing to surge forth until his physical form completely shatters. Congratulations, you have successfully defeated this new Exalted Lair boss!

This concludes our guide on Mephisto boss encounter. Don't let your Diablo 4 Season 13 journey end at the edge of Blood Pool, master this ultimate movement guide and claim the honor of securing the lord's first lill!

Raiders, the surface has undergone a complete upheaval! With the release of ARC Raiders: Riven Tides update, a new aerial threat has arrived. Introducing ARC Turbine, a formidable defensive flying enemy. Typically, this adversary swoops in to disrupt the action around the 15-minute mark, a critical juncture when everyone is preparing for extraction. Not only does it hurl lightning bolts, but it also scatters mines across the ground to cut off your escape routes; it is, quite simply, the ultimate defensive enemy.

To help you safeguard your hard-earned loot, IGGM has worked through the night to uncover Turbine's secrets! Want to know how to hunt down Turbines efficiently? Curious about their favorite hiding spots? Don't miss this guide - we'll show you how to turn Turbine into your personal loot cache!

How to find ARC Turbine?

The primary reason Turbine is such a tricky foe is that it is incredibly elusive. As we mentioned earlier, they tend to make their debut only after a game round has been underway for a significant amount of time, meaning there is a certain element of RNG (luck) involved.

However, some players have reported that Turbines seem to show a preference for appearing near Beachcombing operation points on the map. Therefore, if the current ARC Raiders Riven Tides map features this specific map condition, you may very well sense Turbine's presence along the coastline. Typically, it will arrive when the mission countdown timer has between 10 and 15 minutes remaining.

While there is no exact, fixed arrival time, the 10-to-15-minute window on the raid countdown timer represents the period with the highest probability of a Turbine appearance. If the countdown drops below 10 minutes, the likelihood of one actively seeking you out becomes significantly lower. Consequently, if you miss this specific window, we recommend attempting to extract from your current area and then re-entering; this maneuver may trigger Turbine to respawn.

Once a Turbine finally makes its appearance, typically within that 10-to-15-minute countdown window, its arrival is heralded by a colossal clap of thunder that can be heard clearly for miles around. Be sure to keep your ears peeled and listen for this distinct audio cue!

Once they arrive, the battle is about to get intense. They will first hover and float above the map before descending directly to the ground. Take note: the moment Turbine lands, it presents your prime opportunity to launch an assault and inflict massive damage upon the enemy!

Loadout

Before initiating your attack, ensure you are equipped with the appropriate ARC Raiders weaponry, such as Jupiter or Hullcracker. The former is a legendary, high-damage railgun-style sniper rifle renowned for its exceptional armor-piercing capabilities; it can effortlessly punch through Turbine's plating to inflict damage directly upon its core. The latter, while perhaps lacking in flexibility and fire rate, is celebrated for its explosive damage output, capable of instantly obliterating an ARC enemy with a single direct hit!

Naturally, you have the option to scavenge for this gear within ground-based supply containers or purchase it directly from a vendor; however, given the steep price tags, we highly recommend utilizing the crafting system to construct these items yourself. Furthermore, IGGM currently offers ARC Raiders blueprints for sale at affordable prices, allowing you to instantly unlock any weapon or piece of gear, ensuring you are fully armed and ready to take on Turbine!

By the way, as a way to give back to our players, IGGM has launched a new ARC Raiders Riven Tides blueprint giveaway. Over the next few days, we will randomly select 20 lucky winners, each of whom will be able to choose any 5 blueprints they desire from IGGM, including Jupiter or Hullcracker blueprints. To participate, simply take a moment to leave an emoji!

Turbine Combat Tips

Now, the battle begins! Although Turbine will land on the ground, it will not remain stationary there indefinitely. Regardless of whether it is grounded or airborne, you must remain constantly vigilant, as it is liable to unleash a barrage of lightning strikes at any moment.

The sequence begins with a sphere of energy rising into the air; subsequently, three trails of black smoke will rapidly disperse in different directions to lock onto and track your current position. Following immediately in the wake of this black smoke comes a series of lethal lightning bolts.

Exercise extreme caution to avoid being struck by this ultimate attack; a direct hit will instantly shatter your energy shields and inflict massive damage, leaving you downed and incapacitated in a matter of moments.

Therefore, the safest and most reliable counter-strategy is simply this: maintain your distance. If you venture too close, you will often find yourself with no opportunity to escape before the lightning attack delivers a fatal blow. Ensure you position yourself far enough away that the deadly black mist cannot reach you; for as long as the mist remains out of range, you will remain unharmed. 

However, there is indeed a secret method to help you evade a Turbine attack: you can use a Snap Hook to latch directly onto its head, then immediately throw a Deadline charge to blow it to smithereens.

Once you start dealing sustained damage to it, Turbine will begin darting erratically across the map in an attempt to get away from you. At this point, be sure to maintain your distance while simultaneously staying in hot pursuit. As long as you keep firing, it won't land. If enough players join in the barrage, or if you simply hold out long enough, you will eventually succeed in blowing it up.

Therefore, you will need a fair number of teammates to coordinate their firepower. Be sure to stock up on plenty of ammo so you have the capacity to deal enough damage to finally obliterate this flying machine.

At the same time, do not overlook the other ARC enemies roaming the battlefield. Remain vigilant at all times; the moment you spot them, take them out immediately to avoid being caught off guard by an ambush.

Loot Drops

Once you successfully shoot down a Turbine, you naturally earn the opportunity to scavenge for loot. Unfortunately, this particular ARC enemy does not drop blueprints; instead, it yields a crucial crafting material for Powered Descender: Turbine Compressor.

Make sure to pick it up immediately, do not stand around idly trying to reorganize your inventory. Someone could be standing nearby, ready to snatch the target item right out of your hands at any moment.

Conditions permitting, try to stash Turbine Compressor you've acquired into your Safe Pocket, avoid engaging in combat with any other players, and extract immediately!

In summary, if you don't want your escape route blocked by this lightning-fast harvester hovering over ARC Raiders coastline, then ready your Jupiter sniper rifle for long-range armor-piercing shots, and follow our guide to take care of this massive nuisance!

Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred expansion introduces a brand-new Talisman system. Do you wish to unlock earth-shattering power? Now is your chance! As an endgame inventory feature, Talisman allows players to unlock powerful set bonuses, including massive damage multipliers, by equipping specific Charms and Seals.

Charms, in particular, can be socketed into Talisman to activate specific bonus effects. This provides a pathway to achieve significant boosts in combat power and various special bonuses without even needing to swap out your existing gear, satisfying the desire of many players to further customize and empower their characters during the endgame phase.

How do Set Charms work?

For Class Sets in Diablo 4, each set typically consists of five individual charms. Equipping multiple Set Charms from the same set unlocks progressively stronger bonuses, ranging from 2-piece bonuses all the way up to higher-tier set bonuses.

More importantly, beyond the set bonuses themselves, individual Set Charms often come with secondary affixes that help you stack key attributes such as All Stats or Damage Reduction. Therefore, once you step into Torment difficulty, collecting every Set Charm for your character becomes a critical element in continuously enhancing the combat power of your build.

However, nothing comes easy, especially in the early stages of the game, where collecting all five charms can feel like a nearly impossible task. Although the developers have stated that charms can drop from any location within Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred, killing Torment Bosses is widely acknowledged as the method with the highest drop rates. Yet, for characters in the early game, this is often a pipe dream, not to mention the fact that we still have to contend with uncontrollable randomness (RNG). Fortunately, however, we have powerful tools at our disposal to intervene in RNG process and tip the odds in our favor.

So, without further ado, let's discuss how to collect these Set Charms and fully unleash your character's potential!

How to obtain Charms? 

Playing on Torment 3 difficulty

The first point, and perhaps the most widely known step, is that you must at least unlock Torment 3 difficulty level. This is because, starting from Torment 3, the drop rate for Set Charms increases significantly, a difference you will feel quite distinctly.

At T3 difficulty and above, it becomes far from uncommon to have a single boss drop multiple Set Charms at once. You can even utilize Tribute of the Horadrim in Kurast Undercity to further boost your drop yields.

Horadric Cube

Almost everyone is already familiar with the method described above; so now, let's address a different reality: Suppose you have already amassed a massive pile of Set Charms by defeating bosses and clearing dungeons, is that truly a cause for unadulterated celebration? The developers certainly didn't intend for you to achieve your goals quite that easily.

In reality, even if you have accumulated a substantial number of Diablo 4 charms, the interference of RNG (Random Number Generation) means your inventory is likely cluttered with useless junk you don't need, while the specific 5-piece set you are truly after remains frustratingly incomplete, missing just one or two key pieces.

In such a scenario, most players might simply head to the forums to vent about their terrible luck; however, complaining alone won't actually solve the problem. Instead, you should immediately turn to the Horadric Cube. This is a new feature introduced in Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred that allows players to combine various items and resources to craft new gear, enhance existing equipment, and crucially, craft items such as charms.

3-to-1 Transmutation

You can select any three charms of the same rarity from your inventory, specifically those from other sets that you deem useless, and place them into Horadric Cube.

Subsequently, when you click Transmute button, cube will generate a brand-new, random charm of that same rarity level. There is a strong possibility that this new charm will be one of the specific pieces you have been tirelessly hunting for to complete your target set. Even if it isn't, you can simply repeat this process until your inventory contains only those charms that are actually useful to you. This serves as one effective method for intervening in RNG process, thereby steering the outcome in your favor.

Set Charm Rerolling

Another highly probable scenario is that you have already collected five or more charms belonging to your target set. However, at least two of them turn out to be duplicates. This is clearly not an ideal situation, as having duplicates prevents you from unlocking and benefiting from the powerful set bonuses associated with a complete, unique set. 

However, there is indeed a solution to this problem, and the key, once again, lies with Horadric Cube. Simply place one of your duplicate charms into the cube, select Reroll Set Charm option, add the necessary crafting materials, and finally, press Transmute button.

The result of this synthesis will be a random charm; crucially, this new charm is guaranteed to belong to the exact same Set series as the original charm you placed into the cube.

Thus, by utilizing this method, you are effectively reforging your existing, unwanted duplicate Set Charms into a different, random charm from within that very same set series. This allows you to not only clear out your excess duplicates but also, eventually, acquire the specific missing charm from that set that you currently lack. You can continue performing this synthesis process until you have exhausted all of your crafting materials.

In any case, do not let the whims of randomness hinder your ascent to greatness! Master these Horadric Cube crafting techniques to complete your Charm Sets immediately, and witness your combat power undergo a transformative leap in Lord of Hatred expansion!

Players, Torchlight Infinite SS12 Lunaria has officially launched, so now is the perfect time to explore builds. Unlike traditional maximizing DPS, we'll be introducing a Charge Calling Moto build that maintains approximately 183 billion DPS while significantly improving character survivability and ensuring stable map clearing on Profound difficulty.

This build balances attack and survival. The core gameplay utilizes Self-Destruct Protocol for area-of-effect damage, achieving extremely high damage output while maintaining sufficient Energy Shield stacks through specific gear and talents.

In other words, this build abandons the traditional Glass Cannon route, focusing on a balance between DPS and survivability.

Core Gear and Crafting Strategy

Currently, most Boom Moto players opt for extremely high damage at the cost of low survivability, potentially dying twice per map.

Therefore, we can forgo Isomorphic Arms and instead select Mighty Guard, granting summon skill levels +2. By stacking Energy Shield and defensive layers, the death rate can be significantly reduced.

Equipment selection revolves around maximizing summoned damage output while maintaining Energy Shield.

• Helmet: Machine Lord. The core, best-in-slot item. Reduces summoned numbers but significantly increases damage. The corrupted version is preferable for better value.
• Armor: Void Embankment. The ultimate damage-focused choice. It grants 20% more damage, but reduces Energy Shield from 7500 to 3500, decreasing survivability by 47%. Suitable for players who are skilled in operation.
• Alternative Armor: Choose a high-value Armor that provides a large Energy Shield and good stats.
• Weapon: Core affixes priority is Physical Damage, Summoned Skill Level, Strength, Attack Speed, and Critical Strike Chance. A top-tier base is extremely expensive, requiring approximately 18,000 Torchlight Infinite Flame Elementium.
• Ring: Key damage affixes are Physical Damage, Summoned Damage, Double Damage, and Command. Ideally, you should maximize Double Damage chance.

Skill Links and Key Choices

Skill links directly affect your combat efficiency and damage output.

The primary skill is Trog 2nd General. The secondary links are Fearless, which significantly increases the self-destruct skill's range, achieving a screen-clearing effect, and Area Protocol, which further increases skill's range.

Self-Destruct Protocol possesses both tags, expanding its range to cover the entire screen, resulting in extremely high map-clearing efficiency in actual combat. With two summons, it provides seamless full-screen coverage.

Regarding Mechanical Mods, Modularization: Resonance increases extra damage by 88% and is relatively inexpensive, offering both affordability and high efficiency.

However, our ideal choice is Force Field. It not only provides 100% extra damage but also grants summons a shield equal to 100% of their maximum health. For example, a summon with 9000 health would gain an additional 9000 energy shield, effectively doubling its damage.

There are also some other auxiliary skills.

• Energy Fortress: Energy Shield regeneration is not interrupted after each hit.
• Iron Fortification: Provides additional armor and Cooldown recovery, enhancing defense.
• Blink + Quick Mobility + Magic Dash: A three-piece mobility set.
• Rising Edge: Base cooldown 10 seconds. Can be reduced to approximately 6 seconds with 23% Cooldown Recovery Speed ​​and additional Cooldown Reduction. There is approximately a 1-second downtime, which can be compensated for with perfect affixes or talent nodes.

Timid and Activation Medium: Elite are not required and can be replaced.

For aura selection, you can use Precise: Weapon Amplification, Precise: Radical Order, and Energy Fortress.

If you have Lone Walker's Boots, which come with Precise: Radical Order, you can free up an aura slot to replace it with Cruelty or other damage-boosting auras. Having multiple auras active simultaneously significantly increases damage.

Skill Tree Allocation

Minion Damage and Critical Hit Zone

Take points into Minion Damage with Command per second and Minion Damage with Hasten.

Mighty Guard

Replace Isomorphic Arms; don't use two-handed weapons, but instead gain +2 to Minion skill level.

Machinist

Compared to God of Machines, Machinist provides 15% critical hit damage and skill range, with each point granting 20% ​​critical hit chance and 5% damage.

Key points are +1 to Synthetic Troops skill level, attack speed from Command, and maximum minion health.

Lich

With a 20% Critical Hit chance and 5% Critical Strike Damage bonus, this is our damage-boosting strategy. All skill levels and all attributes are important.

Slates Strategy

Our ideal affixes are Command, maximum minion health, and double damage chance (prioritize these until 100%).

Resonance of the Stars can copy all purple affixes on all slates. For example, three slates that provide Command will give you 6 Commands, and six of those will give you 12, a very high benefit. It's also easy to obtain.

Practical Evaluation

On Profound difficulty, our Charge Calling Moto clears maps very quickly, covering the entire screen. Unless hit by a burst of high damage, it's very stable and almost never dies. If you're unlucky, you might die once per map.

By doubling the number of summons with Machine Lord, maximizing double chance, and using Resonance of the Stars to copy slates, we can achieve a survivable output of 200 billion. Even without Machine Lord, it's playable, but with one less summon, the damage will be halved.

For a safer experience, you can choose a high-energy shield Armor to replace the damage-dealing chest armor.

If you're looking to reliably farm Profound difficulty with Charge Calling Moto in Season 12, this build offers a very balanced approach. There's no need to blindly pursue the high-risk, high-reward glass cannon.

Go online and explore!

Lord of Hatred has brought sweeping changes to every class in Diablo 4, with each skill tree undergoing a massive rework. Many builds players were once familiar with are now unrecognizable, some have vanished entirely, and entirely new ones have emerged in their place.

In Season 13, if you want to level quickly and transition smoothly into the endgame, choosing an efficient build is crucial. Below, let's look at the strongest leveling builds for each class in Season 13 so you can hit max level with ease.

Warlock

• Build: Dread Claw Warlock

Warlock is absolutely central to Lord of Hatred expansion, and since it's a new class, experimenting with any build feels fresh. From a leveling standpoint, however, Dread Claw Warlock is currently the best option.

In terms of gameplay, you'll frequently use Nether Step to dive into enemy packs. It serves as your primary mobility tool while also generating Shadow Form stacks.

Your core damage skill is Dread Claws, which can instantly clear everything in sight. For single targets and elites, you can lean on Profane Sentinel and use Terror Swarm to boost your clearing speed.

Although the build can be a bit complex to pilot, it's incredibly solid in every aspect, letting you breeze through the campaign and step into early endgame content.

Paladin

• Build: Wing Strikes Paladin

Anyone who played Paladin in Season 12 will sing praises about how smooth it feels. This class is nearly flawless in survivability, damage, and farming. Wing Strikes Paladin is, without a doubt, still the best leveling build for the class.

The core goal is to permanently maintain Arbiter form, allowing Wing Strikes to obliterate everything around you. Even if your gear lacks affixes that extend Arbiter form, you can effortlessly sustain it by continuously using Falling Star, Condemn, and Flash of the Blade Advance.

This build makes you practically unkillable, grants absurd mobility, and transitions perfectly into a variety of endgame builds - including the endgame version of Wing Strikes itself.

Rogue

• Build: Dance of Knives Rogue

Dance of Knives has once again become one of the fastest and most powerful leveling builds in the entire game, thanks to its extraordinary mobility, flexible imbue mechanics, and insane single-target damage against elites and bosses.

Combined with Dark Shroud, Dance of Knives Rogue can easily break the 200% movement speed cap. At the same time, it boasts excellent defenses through the damage reduction Dark Shroud provides. You simply spin and move at high speed, annihilating everything with Dance of Knives.

Sorcerer

• Build: Static Field Blizzard Sorcerer

Static Field Blizzard Sorcerer deals absurdly high damage and requires absolutely no Unique items or Legendary Aspects to get rolling, making it incredibly fast to set up. The gameplay is simple: cast Static Field Blizzard to deal damage, and pop Unstable Currents for burst against priority targets like bosses.

Static Field Blizzard is a damage-over-time skill, so avoid stacking Critical Strike Chance or any stats that improve Critical Strike Damage - they have no effect on this skill. Even so, without any other buffs, its base damage can exceed 10,000% of your weapon damage within 1.5 seconds, making it Sorcerer's strongest core skill this season.

Keep in mind this build cannot function before level 30. Until then, you can get by with any other build. Once you reach the early endgame, you can also keep using this build to farm items and Diablo 4 gold, given its outstanding performance relative to the investment required.

Spiritborn

• Build: Rock Splitter Spiritborn

Rock Splitter Spiritborn is a classic leveling build that delivers strong performance in both damage and survivability. Later on, you can leverage Rushing Claw and its variants to achieve permanent dodging, letting you zip across the map (while weaving in Rock Splitter between every other skill). This build is absolutely one of the fastest in the entire game.

Barbarian

• Build: Whirlwind Barbarian

Barbarian's core in Season 13 is Whirlwind, which becomes accessible as early as level 3. The gameplay is straightforward: use Lunging Strike to close the gap and generate Fury; cast whatever Shouts you've unlocked for bonus damage and movement speed; then hold down Whirlwind to spin and unleash massive damage.

This build dishes out terrifying damage right from the start, while Lunging Strike and Leap provide extra mobility, letting your character charge straight into packs and flatten everything.

Necromancer

• Build: Minions Necromancer

Minions Necromancer has always been one of the best leveling builds in Diablo 4, especially after the class resets in Season 13 polished minion management.

Early on, you'll invest points into Skeletal Mages and Skeletal Warriors. When your Ultimate unlocks, Army of the Dead is the natural choice. It deals increased damage and generates more corpses, helping you handle bosses efficiently. This minion build can carry you through the entire campaign all the way to level 70. It only starts to fall off once you push into higher Torment difficulties, but during the leveling phase, it's unquestionably one of the strongest and quickest builds to get going.

Druid

• Build: Stormclaw Druid

After its rework, Druid no longer feels as clunky as before. You can choose to summon companions or lean on damage skills to level up. Stormclaw Druid is the most efficient route, though the gameplay differs slightly between early and later stages due to the skills used.

In the early phase, you'll use Wind Shear to generate Spirit and apply Vulnerable, with Lightning Storm as your main killing tool. Companion skills are crucial here - you'll rely on them to handle single targets and provide crowd control.

Once you reach the mid-game, Claw replaces Wind Shear as your primary Spirit generator. All of this sets up Hero of the Storm at level 32, and it could transform Lightning Storm into a passive effect that follows you around. Combined with mobility skills, you simply keep moving to deal with everything around you.

While these are the best leveling builds for Season 13, the time it takes to complete the campaign can vary significantly due to differences in gear, movement speed, and other factors across characters. For each class, however, these builds represent the most efficient path.

MLB The Show 26 is scheduled to release its seventh update since launch on April 30. While the series typically does not introduce new features via standard updates, the changes made to Diamond Dynasty this time around are truly noteworthy.

Below, we provide an overview of Update 7, with a specific focus on analyzing the introduction of ABS in Diamond Dynasty and the changes to PCI, to help you quickly adapt to these adjustments.

MLB 26 Update 7 overview

Although the contents of this update were announced on April 29, the actual implementation into the game will not take place until 4:00 AM PT on April 30. Please note that the update version numbers differ across platforms:

• PS5: 1.007
• Xbox Series X|S: 1.0.50
• Nintendo Switch: 1.07

This update primarily consists of bug fixes addressing various gameplay mechanics and modes over the past period. The key highlights include the introduction of ABS in Diamond Dynasty, changes to PCI, and general new content additions.

General new content

This section refers to the developers adding 2026 City Connect uniforms for two teams, Pittsburgh Pirates and Texas Rangers, to MLB 26.

Additionally, this update confirms that City Connect bats will be added to the game as a whole via future updates. This means that in the future, you will be able to unlock an even richer array of rewards for your roster.

Diamond Dynasty changes

Before introducing new features like ABS, it is worth noting that this update fixes a bug in Head-to-Head mode where players could be erroneously awarded a win or charged with a loss while simply navigating the lineup adjustment screen.

To be honest, this bug should have been fixed before the start of Classic mode last weekend; delaying the fix until today caused a great deal of unnecessary frustration for players.

Regarding the update to the strike zone in Diamond Dynasty mode, the development team has specifically adjusted this mechanic to align with the rules of the real-world ABS system.

This means that in MLB 26, any pitch that merely grazes the edge of the strike zone will now be immediately called a strike.

Furthermore, within Diamond Dynasty, the umpires will continue to maintain a state of perfect accuracy in their calls; consequently, you will not be able to initiate ABS challenges.

In other words, these changes do not mean the game has implemented ABS system identical to the one used in the real world; rather, they simply ensure that whenever your pitch touches the strike zone, the umpire will, much like an ABS system, make a perfectly precise and accurate call.

Another update note adds that, in order to more accurately replicate ABS rules, the strike zone's detection area has been slightly reduced in size following the update.

However, this is purely a visual adjustment and does not alter the actual rules used to determine whether a pitch is a strike or a ball.

If you are an MLB 26 player who struggles with pitching, this update will probably work to your advantage, making your pitching experience much smoother and easier.

This is because, in the past, far too many pitches that clearly grazed the edge of the strike zone were erroneously called balls, a frequent occurrence often attributed to the strike zone's visual boundaries being unrealistically extended outward.

Furthermore, from a batter's perspective, under the existing mechanics, there remains a chance to hit a fair ball, or even a base hit, even if the pitch lands outside the designated strike zone.

PCI shrinkage adjustments

Following the release of Update 7, PCI penalties now apply only once rather than stacking cumulatively.

Regarding the nature of these penalties: for the sake of game balance, the system automatically applies corresponding boosts or penalties to the batter based on the specific pitch type and its location.

For instance, if you, as the pitcher, throw a curveball, your PCI detection window will expand accordingly.

This reflects real-world baseball dynamics, where a poorly executed curveball is considered a pitcher's mistake, offering the batter a prime opportunity to square up the ball with precision.

Conversely, if a pitcher precisely locates a slider in a tricky spot, such as low and away from the batter, that pitch is inherently extremely difficult to hit. Consequently, the system will slightly shrink your PCI detection window to serve as a difficulty penalty.

Prior to this update, if you threw a pitch that was both an off-speed pitch moving away from the batter and located in the lower portion of the strike zone, you would be hit with two separate penalties. Under the new update, these penalties have been consolidated into a single penalty.

Ultimately, PCI shrinkage mechanic remains in effect; it is simply applied to a less severe degree than before.

Additionally, it is crucial to remember that your swing timing plays a pivotal role in determining the actual size of your PCI. While this is, on the whole, a positive change, it is unfortunate that the issue regarding foul balls remains unresolved.

In light of this, we suggest that future updates implement a more decisive measure, specifically by completely eliminating very early and very late timing windows, thereby making it impossible to make contact with the ball during those specific moments.

Cracking down on violations

Although this section does not pertain directly to gameplay mechanics, it is certainly worth discussing.

After all, as various forms of in-game cheating become increasingly rampant, the development team's commitment to combating such behavior often serves as a key factor in a player's decision to continue supporting a game.

In the patch notes for this update, MLB The Show 26 team stated that any form of cheating, whether through the exploitation of game glitches or the use of unauthorized third-party tools, is strictly prohibited.

Furthermore, they affirmed that they will actively monitor in-game activities to identify and penalize violators.

While the developers did not disclose the specific methods of surveillance or publish a list of banned players, we remain hopeful that these measures are genuinely effective, rather than merely being perfunctory gestures intended to placate players who faithfully adhere to the rules.

That concludes our overview of the latest update. We hope you are pleased with the new content introduced in MLB The Show 26!

Helldivers 2 released Patch 6.2.2 of Machinery of Oppression update on April 28. This update drew significant backlash from players because it substantially increased the durable damage of many enemies, making combat more tedious and sluggish.

We should also acknowledge that this update does contain some enhancements that genuinely improve gameplay and the overall experience. However, since Patch 6.2.2 is a very large patch, we cannot analyze every single change in exhaustive detail. Therefore, we will only look at the parts that have the greatest impact on gameplay and see how players can adapt to these changes.

Balance Adjustments

Exo Suits Rebalance

Because players generally felt that Exo suits could take too little damage and were too easily destroyed - especially against Automaton  - the development team made substantial balance adjustments to improve their durability:

• Main health pool increased from 850 to 1,600. An Exo suit is only completely destroyed when its main health pool is depleted.
• Vulnerability to acid attacks increased by 50%.
• Exo suit arm health increased from 350 to 600. Arms now also share the main body's 50% explosive damage resistance.
• Removed the constitution and bleedout mechanics from Exo suit arms.
• When both legs are destroyed, Exo suit no longer loses all mobility.
• Exo suits can now be staggered (stagger intensity 45), but this does not affect their ability to fire.
• Removed cosmetic parts that do not affect the main health pool to improve performance; these parts can no longer be damaged.

The health and explosive resistance buffs for Exo suits are excellent and have been needed for a long time. That said, it is hard not to suspect that the developers fixed these issues right before releasing a Warbond that includes two new Exo Suits. The timing makes players question whether the fix was meant to promote the latest Warbond. And these were not complicated problems - just a matter of tweaking some variables.

Gas Effects

Gas now also slows confused enemies by 25%. Naturally, the slow effect also applies to you. Large enemies that are immune to the confusion effect from gas - such as Bile Titans and Factory Striders - are also immune to the slow.

While this change helps TX-41 Sterilizer stand out more, it also makes gas grenades and Dog Breath excessively strong. Take a gas drone or gas grenades into a Terminid mission, and you will see your kill count skyrocket.

Weapon Changes

CQC-30 Stun Baton

• Changes: Stamina consumption reduced from 5% to 3%. Damage increased from 75 to 120. Durable damage increased from 38 to 60.

This change addresses Stun Baton's damage issues. Another problem remains: when you hit an enemy, it not only stuns them but also causes knockback. This forces you to step forward after each swing to land the next hit, preventing you from fully utilizing the baton's fast swing speed for sustained output.

CQC-9 Defoliation Tool

• Changes: Hitbox enlarged to make it easier to land hits. Effective hit window extended. Armor penetration speed doubled. Movement speed reduced when dealing damage to enemies. Stamina consumption reduced from 10% to 5%.

These changes make Defoliation Tool feel much better to use. Doubled armor penetration might cut your time-to-kill in half, especially against enemies like Chargers.

SH-20 Ballistic Shield Backpack

• Changes: Health increased from 600 to 1,000.

Not many players took Ballistic Shield because it broke easily and had a long cooldown. The developers have already reduced its cooldown several times, and now they have finally increased its health, which should encourage more players to give it a try.

FAF-14 Spear

• Changes: Backpack ammunition increased from 3 to 4 rockets.

Spear's main issue has always been its limited ammo. One extra rocket will not let it replace the recoilless rifle, but it makes Spear a better option - one that no longer feels like a burden to your team.

A/FLAM-40 Flame Sentry

• Changes: Range increased from 20 meters to 34 meters. Damage increased by 50%. Panic effect on enemies triggers faster.

This is undoubtedly a very solid buff. The sentry no longer lasts only a dozen or so seconds. While it might still blow up if left alone against a full swarm, if you stand nearby and help clear enemies, it can easily survive a Terminid breach or an Illuminate assault wave.

TX-41 Sterilizer

• Changes: Updated the visual effects of the gas spray to make the range easier to see. Gas now lingers longer and covers a wider area.

Previously, the problem with Sterilizer was that enemies hit by the gas could still charge at you. With the slow effect, you now have more room to dodge attacks. Thanks to the buffs to gas effects and Sterilizer's own changes, this weapon will become viable as well.

Enemy Changes

Bile Titan

• Changes: Spray explosion radius reduced to match the visual effects - inner radius decreased from 2.25 to 1, outer radius decreased from 3.5 to 2.2.

This should make it easier to dodge its spit attack by diving, and you will likely avoid taking damage altogether. The improved visual effects are also welcome. An excellent change that prevents you from taking damage for no apparent reason.

Hive Guard

• Changes: Armor on the head and legs increased (from medium to heavy). Armor on the body and claws reduced (from light to none). Body health pool reduced from 500 to 375.

This is the most controversial part of the update, as it forces the player base to rely on a very small set of weapons that can deal with this common enemy (which now has heavy armor). Previously, if you brought a light-penetration weapon, the enemies left standing after a bug breach were often Hive Guards, because you had no medium penetration or explosives.

Now, even with a medium-penetration weapon, you will still see swarms of Hive Guards. The problem is not that they become too difficult to handle, raising the challenge - they are not fast, and you can easily run away. But you have to circle them repeatedly to take them down, which is extremely time-consuming.

Durable Damage Increases

The developers increased the durable damage of the following enemies:

• Bile Spewers
• Stalkers
• Shriekers
• Scavenger
• All Warrior variants
• Hive Lord
• Charger
• Impaler
• Dragon Roach
• Berserker
• Devastator
• Raider
• War Strider

In short, this change means your turrets, fortifications, and vehicles will be destroyed much faster. No player will enjoy this adjustment. The developers' decision only forces players to rely on the few stratagems that can still get the job done, making the game unfun if you choose anything else.

Tank

All tanks received the following changes to their main body:

• Health pool increased from 3,000 to 4,000
• Rear vent health increased from 750 to 1,500
• Rear vent armor changed from medium to heavy
• Removed the track destruction zone (damage no longer transfers when the zone is destroyed)
• Removed the damage cap transferred from tracks to main body health
• Track durable resistance reduced from 1.0 to 0.7
• Reduced overlapping damage areas while moving to match visuals; damage lowered

Tanks were never really a threat to begin with - they are slow and have a low rate of fire. Even after these buffs, dealing with one is not particularly difficult. However, removing the weak point on the rear vent armor takes away an efficient way to handle them. This is a terrible change.

Heavy Devastators

• Changes: Shields can now be destroyed and will drop when broken. Shields have heavy armor, 800 health, and 0.7 durable.

This is a good change. Previously, hitting the shield would show a ricochet marker, making you feel like your attacks did nothing. Now, even if you cannot fully penetrate the shield, you can still damage it and potentially break it.

War Strider

• Changes: Leg hip joint armor reduced from heavy to medium.

They now have a weak point that medium-penetration weapons can exploit. For over a month, players have been complaining that War Striders lacked a weak point suitable for medium weapons. The developers have finally addressed this issue.

Taken as a whole, Patch 6.2.2 provides far greater buffs to enemies than to players. This forces players to pick only the strongest and most efficient weapons to face the challenges ahead, reducing player choice. For the future of Helldivers 2, that is not a healthy sign.

Enemies are now more difficult to deal with, and it seems Exo Suits are about to enter a strong phase. If you need to increase damage and acquire stronger Stratagems, you can buy cheap Helldivers 2 Super Credits at IGGM to get the latest Exo Experts Warbond.

The current Monopoly Go album, Monopoly Ever After, launched earlier this month and is currently in full swing. Mid-month saw the debut of its first Partner Event, and now, just two weeks later, a brand-new round is about to arrive!

This second round of the fairytale-themed Partner Events, set to launch in early May, is titled Villainous Partners. While the event duration remains consistent with previous events of this type, there have been some changes regarding other details.

Below, we'll provide you with all the key information regarding this event and outline a comprehensive reward-earning strategy to ensure you make the absolute most of it!

Villainous Partners release date

The event is scheduled to begin on Saturday, May 2nd, at 10:00 AM PT, and conclude on Thursday, May 7th, at 1:00 PM PT, running for a total of 5 days and 3 hours.

If you've participated in previous partner or racers events, you know they typically last for 5 days; however, they usually start on a Tuesday or Wednesday to ensure the final day falls on a Sunday.

Curiously, this time around, Villainous Partners kicks off on a Saturday and wraps up on the following Thursday. Although it still encompasses a weekend, you may need to adjust your routine if you're accustomed to saving your final sprint for the very last days of the event.

It remains unclear why the game developers chose this schedule or whether this new timing mechanism will become a permanent fixture. The only thing you can do is adapt your strategy promptly, specifically by pushing harder during the first two days.

Securing reliable partners is key

In Monopoly Go events like Partners or Racers, which require active collaboration with other players to make progress, your teammates are often the decisive factor in determining your success!

Therefore, unless you decide to tackle the event in solo mode, it is absolutely crucial to ensure you have reliable partners right from the start. While it may be possible to swap partners later on, why go through the hassle?

Common sources for finding excellent partners include your existing in-game friends, or other players actively seeking partners within forums and community groups, provided you can verify their authenticity and activity levels.

However, if you want to guarantee top-tier results in Villainous Partners, the smartest choice is to buy Monopoly Go Villainous Partners Event Slot from IGGM directly! Our professional team is dedicated to providing you with a smooth, efficient, and stress-free gaming experience!

Earning more tokens

In a nutshell, Partner Events require every member of a team to utilize tokens, earned through regular gameplay, as the building materials needed to construct attractions within the event.

By successfully completing all four attractions, the team unlocks the ultimate grand prize. Therefore, once you have formed your team, you must immediately begin farming tokens and ensure that your partners are doing the same.

We will now outline the primary sources for obtaining these tokens.

Daily events

This category includes banner events and tournaments, which refresh every two days and every day, respectively (though these durations may occasionally be extended or shortened).

These events feature their own specific lists of milestone rewards; during the partner event, tokens are added to these lists. Your objective is simply to advance across the game board and land on specific tiles to earn points.

Each time you reach a specific point threshold, the corresponding milestone reward is unlocked. Taking banner events as an example: if you manage to secure all 62 available rewards, you can expect to collect at least 2,000 partner tokens in total.

Quick Wins tasks

This task system refreshes daily each morning, presenting you with three objectives. These tasks are typically very easy to complete, so that you will finish them automatically as you progress through your daily events.

Claiming gifts

The in-game shop refreshes with a gift every eight hours. The contents are randomized, but there is indeed a chance that special tokens will appear among the items. Since these gifts do not stack (meaning you cannot save them up), be sure to claim them promptly to avoid missing out.

Collecting on the board

During Villainous Partners event, tokens will also be scattered directly across the game board itself. You can collect these tokens simply by landing on the corresponding tiles while playing through daily events or other tasks.

Spinning the wheel

Once you have accumulated enough tokens, you can consume them to spin the exclusive Villainous Partners wheel.

The wheel is divided into equal-sized slices, each corresponding to a specific number of points. These accumulated points contribute directly to the construction progress of your attractions.

It is worth noting that the wheel features a special Mega Slice; if the pointer lands on this section, the point reward you receive will be far greater than you could imagine!

What rewards can you earn?

Villainous Partners event features four unique attractions waiting to be built by you and your three teammates, with each player responsible for constructing one of them.

If everyone completes their objectives before the event concludes, all participants will receive the following ultimate rewards:

• 5,000 Dice Rolls
• Swap Pack x1
• Big Bad Wolf Board Token

Furthermore, each individual attraction features additional milestone rewards that unlock sequentially as you accumulate points:

That covers everything you need to know before diving into Villainous Partners event. Wish you and your teammates can achieve excellent results!
