The Division Resurgence brings four different Specializations by default for players to enjoy, and they're not equal. Similar to how they work in the PC/console version, Ubisoft has simplified how each Specialization works in the game. While we are still in the early days of the game, some Specializations are already proving to be stronger than the rest. Disclaimer: Tech class to be assessed. Table of contents Complete The Division Resurgence Specialization tier list S-tier A-tier Complete The Division Resurgence Specialization tier list To separate the Specializations, I have opted for two tiers. There are just four of them, and they're all pretty balanced. S-tier choices are highly suitable for all players, and they're extremely strong in terms of their offered skills and abilities. A-tier choices are pretty close to S-tier choices, but they have some limitations. Image via Ubisoft S-tier Vanguard: If you love using weapons of different types,...

Epidote is one of the many ores you can find in Crimson Desert , and you'll need it for several mid and end-game activities. You won't find them before reaching the Pailune and Crimson Desert regions, and both require a fair bit of in-game progression. Let's find out how to obtain Epidote in an efficient fashion. Best ways to farm Epidote in Crimson Desert The first Epidote you get in Crimson Desert will be by Count Felix's Request in Hernand. Once you're done with the quest, you'll get the ore, but there are more ways to get it. Once you unlock Pailune, you'll get the best concentration of Epidote at a single location. The same also applies to Crimson Desert, which has a fair share of ore veins in a small location. You can find the nodes towards the eastern part of Pailune, right near the river. The nodes will be located around the cliffs, and you'll need the right device to mine them. Image via Pearl Abyss This isn't the only area with E...

Huge gaming corporations are no strangers to lawsuits, no matter who they're coming from. We've got governments, individuals, other companies, and everyone in between suing each other like there's no tomorrow, and often for good reasons. However, Sony is now facing a very funny lawsuit, one started by a dance move licensed by the company to Epic Games that turned it into an official Fortnite emote. Per Complex , Darrin Henson, the creator of the famous Bye, Bye, Bye choreography featured in the Deadpool & Wolverine movie as well as Fortnite , has lodged a lawsuit against Sony Music Holdings, alleging the company licensed his property without approval. Henson filed the suit in a federal court on March 27, claiming to be the "rightful owner" of the choreography and that Sony was in no position to license it out to others without his say, Complex writes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aL2OrIqoGoM Marvel and Sony themselves were left out of the lawsuit...

The Bekker Bow is one of the best ranged weapons to unlock and use in Crimson Desert , and it can be immensely helpful in the early part of the game. While the bow does weaken in power once you get better items, it will still help you to clear large parts of the game. Let's look at how you can obtain the bow to add to your arsenal.

Elden Ring is a treasure trove when it comes to lore, as are most of FromSoftware's newer games. For years now, especially with the addition of the  Shadow of the Erdtree  DLC, players have crafted incredible theories, some of which require extensive video essay s to fully explore. Now, four years after the game came out, a new, unused cutscene has been discovered that shows Miquella, Malenia's brother, planting the massive Haligtree where the Tarnished fights the latter. It was dug out of the game's files by Lance McDonald, a YouTuber specializing in data mining, who presented the cutscene to us in full for the very first time. The cutscene was supposed to play after you gained a particular item from Gideon the All-Knowing, though there are missing files that prevent you from seeing it even if you do manage to break into this part of the game's cut content. However, McDonald somehow managed to reverse-engineer the thing and make it play the cutscene, which shows M...

I know I've been repeating this over and over again, but Crimson Desert really is a special game, not only because it has genuinely great gameplay and a breathtaking world. While that's awesome and all, I'm starting to truly appreciate its developers, Pearl Abyss, who have been issuing non-stop patches since the game came out two weeks ago. And one came out today , again. This time, the developers wanted to be as inclusive as possible, introducing ways for players to use old control schemes if they preferred them, while allowing everyone else to use those modernized and polished ones that they so desperately demanded. On top of that, there are countless quality-of-life improvements, bugfixes, and minor changes in the patch, as there have been in every patch since March 19. While the game launched to some controversy, its developers have been so punctual with updates that there is barely any bad blood between them and the players anymore. Even those in the broader gamin...

There's a unique way to become Jesus (not in the literal sense) in Crimson Desert with the help of Vaporwalker boots, as it allows you to walk over water. You can use these boots to tread across shallow water bodies, and they can also allow you to glide over deeper sections. Let's find out how you can get these boots in Pywel. Table of contents Vaporwalker boots in Crimson Desert How to get and use the Vaporwalker boots in Crimson Desert Vaporwalker boots in Crimson Desert Image via Pearl Abyss The Vaporwalker boots can be found inside a chest that's hidden in the Ancient Heart cave. You'll need to unlock the Pailune region. Then, you'll need to reach the Ancient Rift. Approach the cliff from the top and then drop down. Use your flight ability to glide towards a nearby waterfall (location marked on the image above). Drop on either bank near the midpoint of the waterfall since that's the entry point. Once you land on the entrance, you'll need...
