Destiny 2 New Iron Banner Challenges and Rewards for May 31

  by   Alex Co  
2:47 pm in News

It’s a busy day for Destiny 2 players, as not only is the weekly reset triggered today, but there’s a new Iron Banner event as well, which means there are new rewards as well. If you’re looking for the Destiny 2 new Iron Banner challenges but can’t find them, you’re not alone! We’re here to help, so head on below, guardian!

Destiny 2 New Iron Banner Challenges and Rewards for May 31:

What changes has Bungie made with the Iron Banner?

It’s a rather long-winded explanation, which you can read about in detail right here.

Where do I find the Destiny 2 Iron Banner challenges this May 31?

Oddly enough, this isn’t clear for players, but thanks to the comunity, we know how! Per Reddit user steele330:

  • You can find the Daily Challenge for Iron Banner by hovering over the playlist in the Director.

From Reddit user Captiankirk03:

  • You can hover over the node and see the daily challenge. It’s confusing since it says “Weekly”. Today is play 3 matches as a solar or void class.

For those wondering, the “Weekly Challenges” you see on the Iron Banner node are indeed the daily challenges needed to progress the quest line, as well as to get the booster (per Reddit user Shokio21)

What is the daily challenge for the new Iron Banner this May 31?

It’s as simple as playing three matches in Iron Banner Rift.

As for the rewards, here’s what ever-dependable site light.gg has listed:

 The links below are being updated as new data becomes visible in the Bungie API. Check back often!

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Update 1.06 Zooms Out This May 31

  by   Alex Co  
1:40 pm in News

TT Games has fired out the LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga update 1.06 (PS5 version 1.000.006), which is out on all platforms (including PC). This is an unannounced title update, and given we just got a big patch last May 19 that added new encounters, don’t expect anything major outside of fixes. Read on for the LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga May 31 patch notes.

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Update 1.06 Patch Notes | LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Update 1.000.006 Patch Notes | LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga May 31 Patch Notes:

File size: 3GB (PC), 2.5GB (PlayStation)

Unfortunately, TT Games has not released any official patch notes log just yet, even if the WB Games Support page says it has been updated today (it still shows the same patch notes from May 19).

Thanks to the community, we have confirmation on some of issues that are still not fixed with this title update.

  • Hasn’t fixed the R2-KT Attackodana bug (per Reddit user Imago_x)
  • On PS5. And they still haven’t fixed Porg Patrol ffs (per Reddit user adamski_swede98)

According to Reddit user Ornoxx, this did fix a Gungan City bug:

We’re on the lookout for the official patch notes, and once TT Games releases them (if they ever do), we’ll be sure to update the post. If you spot any gameplay-related changes or fixes, leave a comment below to let us know what you spot.

Destroy All Humans 2 – Reprobed Release Date Locked for August 30, New Trailer Shoots Out

  by   Alex Co  
11:40 am in News

If you’re the human-hunting type, THQ Nordic has just the thing, as the Destroy All Humans 2 – Reprobed release date has been announced, and it’s due this August 30! There’s also a new trailer accompanying this announcement, and it showcases gameplay footage, and loads of explosions and action.

Info regarding the game straight from the press release:

Destroy All Humans! 2 – Reprobed: That’s right, earthlings, Crypto is back and this time, he’s invading the swinging sixties! After the KGB blew up his mothership, Crypto seeks revenge and travels to iconic places in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, Japan, and even to the Moon! Destroy All Humans! 2 is a full remake of the original game, adding and improving features while (re-)building the game from scratch in shiny Unreal Engine 4 visuals. The game is developed by Black Forest Games who successfully re-launched the Destroy All Humans!-Franchise in 2020 and is in development for PC, PS5™, and Xbox Series S/X.

If you haven’t played the first remake, go check out our Destroy All Humans review, where we state, “Destroy All Humans! 2020 is a wonderful remake, one that will satisfy fans of the niche series. I highly recommend anyone wanting interested, as it will give you countless hours of mindless fun.”

SMITE Update 12.17 Drops for 9.5 Bonus Update (May 31)

  by   Alex Co  
8:42 am in News

Hi-Rez has rolled out the SMITE update 12.17 patch today, and this is for the 9.5 Bonus Update! Expect changes and bug fixes, alongside a new event! Read on for the SMITE May 31 patch notes below.

SMITE Update 12.17 Patch Notes | SMITE 9.5 Bonus Update Patch Notes | SMITE May 31 Patch Notes:

General

  • Ranked Reset
    • An issue occurred where Masters and Grandmasters players were not properly reset, so we will be applying another Ranked Reset to only players in those tiers
    • This will occur on the day that the Bonus Balance goes live
    • All Masters/GM players will be set to Diamond 1 with 0 TP and 2750 MMR
    • Win/Loss count for the split will also be reset
    • These resets will not affect god leaderboard position or quest progress

Bug Fixes

  • UI
    • Fixed an issue where players were redirected to the wrong queues when clicking the “Play Again” button in the end of match lobby (Fixed in Live 5/20/22)
    • Fixed an issue with the Ranked leaderboards missing data and background elements
  • Gods
    • Hera
      • Fixed an issue where she could knockback Slash Juggernauts with Royal Assault
    • Bakasura
      • Fixed an issue where he could eat the weaker Buff Camp holders in Conquest without doing any damage to them at the beginning of matches

Game Modes

This is the first balance update after the 9.5 “Time to Kill” changes! A lot has changed in the game and things feel very different. There are of course a few specific balance outliers we plan to adjust immediately, but our general philosophy is to take it slow on balance and give people time to experiment, learn, and enjoy this new meta. 

Some stats about 9.5:

  • Conquest matches that end before 15 minutes have been decreased from around 14% of all games to around 10% of all games – a nearly 30% reduction. This shows that the worst case snowball matches have significantly decreased.
  • Conquest matches average length has increased on average by about 3 minutes, from 26m to 29m, about a 15% increase. This shows that the matches are longer, but not painfully long.
  • Kills per Conquest game have decreased, but not by very much. The average kills per match (both teams added together) was around 52 total kills, and that has decreased to about 49 kills – only a 6% drop. This shows that most matches still involve a lot of action.
  • When factoring the match length increase and kills total – we see a decrease of about 2 kills per minute to 1.7 kills per minute  – a 15% decrease. This further supports that the action still very much exists in SMITE games.
  • All of these numbers look great from our side, and we did see noticeable increases in player counts in 9.5 over 9.4 (but this surely was affected by SMITE Night and the Slipknot Event as well)
  • Overall we are very happy with how 9.5 went and at the moment we do not plan to do any partial reverting of the core TTK base stats, we will be looking to solve and pacing or outlier issues through map balance, or individual god and item balance.
  • The two key balance outliers we quickly identified were: Hunters gained too much strength, and Warriors lost too much strength. We plan to adjust both of those in this update, but then slow down on balance a little and watch the meta develop naturally.
  • A new season usually takes people weeks or months to learn and solve. The 9.5 changes are bigger than a new season, and bigger than ever, so we expect people to take even longer to find optimal strategies.
  • Conquest
  • Conquest underwent some equally heavy changes as the gods in this update. Overall the pacing changes have done a good job of preventing games from feeling over before 10 minutes, but there are a few things we want to adjust. We found that red buff was just too punishing for most Mages to clear, and that a similar effect was happening from gold furies against whole teams. We are bringing down the damage on both of those to make them safer objectives to take.
  • We are also doing some adjustments to towers, the 30% penetration felt like a bit too much, especially in the late game when trying to siege bases. We are decreasing that penetration and base damage of Tier 2 and Phoenixes, while buffing the base damage of the Tier 1 towers only to make sure that early game tower diving is still risky.
    • Manticore Camp (red buff)
      • Decreased Base Magical Power from 24 to 18
      • Decreased Scaling Magical Power from 6 per 3 minutes to 4 per 3 minutes
      • Increased Magical Power provided by Red Buff from 10 to 15
    • Gold Fury
      • Decreased Base Magical Power from 60 to 40
      • Decreased Scaling Magical Power from 4 per minute to 2 per minute
    • Oni Fury
      • Decreased Base Magical Power from 70 to 40
      • Decreased Scaling Magical Power from 4 per minute to 2 per minute
    • Primal Fury
      • Decreased Base Magical Power from 70 to 40
      • Decreased Scaling Magical Power from 4 per minute to 2 per minute
    • Towers
      • Tier 1
        • Increase Gold Reward from 75 per person to 125 per person
        • Decreased Penetration from 30% to 20%
        • Increased base power from 215 to 230
      • Tier 2
        • Decreased Penetration from 30% to 20%
        • Decreased base power from 290 to 270
      • Phoenix
        • Decreased Penetration from 30% to 20%
        • Decreased Base Power from 320 to 290
We are also making the same penetration nerf on all non-conquest game modes to bring the power of tower camping back down a bit. It is very clearly more dangerous than previous updates, but this felt like taking it just a little too far and could cause matches to feel like a stalemate in the late game.
  • Assault / Slash / Joust / Duel
    • Decreased Penetration from 30% to 20% on all towers

Items

  • Warrior mains comprised most of the negative feedback for the 9.5 update, and we saw their discomfort reflected in the data as well. Warriors clearly dropped in win%, and Hunters clearly rose. These 2 classes tend to offset each other, so every Warrior buff is a Hunter nerf and vis versa, so we tried to focus on only the most specific things to adjust for each class to bring them back closer to the average balance point, which Guardians, Assassins, and Mages are still sitting within.
  • For Warriors, we looked to buff their early to mid game damage, to both help them clear and to better pressure their opponents in pvp. The Gladiator’s shield buff will help that damage scale through the late game. We also are buffing their items that can counter Hunters (and basic attack Assassin’s who are quickly rising) to give them extra options to build more effectively against comps with multiple gods reliant on basic attacking.

GLADIATOR’S SHIELD
  • Passive bonus damage now applies to gods at all HP percentages, not just under 60%
  • Increase bonus damage scaled from Protections from 25% to 35%

BLACKTHORN HAMMER
  • Increased Physical Power from 25 to 35

BREASTPLATE OF VALOR
  • Increased Physical Protections from 55 to 65

BREASTPLATE OF DETERMINATION
  • Increased Physical Protections from 55 to 65

BREASTPLATE OF VIGILANCE
  • Increased Physical Protections from 55 to 65

SPECTRAL ARMOR
  • Increased Damage mitigation on Critical Strikes from 30% to 40%

HIDE OF THE NEMEAN LION
  • Increased Damage mitigation on a Blocked attack from 50% to 65%
For Hunters, we are nerfing the strongest items in 3 specific aspects: Gold, Lifesteal, and Crit. Gilded Arrow nerfs their gold gain. On a slow map they can use this item to gain a huge advantage, and it needs to come down to keep their power spikes closer to the other classes. Devourer’s Gauntlets provides a huge amount of survivability with the added HP and Protections, so we are bringing down the lifesteal amount to make Hunters more gankable. Finally, we have seen Crit builds become the number one option, partially fueled by the extra gold from their starter item. We wanted to make sure we nerfed this build in its damage and utility.

GILDED ARROW
  • Decreased gold gain from 7 to 3 per trigger

SPIKED GAUNTLET
  • Decreased Lifesteal from 7% to 5%

CURSED GAUNTLET
  • Decreased Lifesteal from 10% to 7%

DEVOURER’S GAUNTLET
  • Decreased Lifesteal from 15% to 10%
  • Decreased Lifesteal per stack from 0.3% to 0.2% (decreased from 15% to 10% at max stacks) (deceased total item lifesteal from 30% to 20%)

DEATHBRINGER
  • Decreased Critical Damage Increase from 30% to 25%

MALICIOUS DEATHBRINGER
  • Decreased Critical Damage Increase from 30% to 25%

ENVENOMED DEATHBRINGER
  • Decreased Critical Damage Increase from 30% to 25%
  • Decreased the damage output debuff from 15% to 10%
Gods
We only have one bonus nerf today, but there will very likely be more nerfs in the main update for 9.6. Cliodhna was the top performer in the early days of 9.5 and competitive SMITE, so we drew up some base damage nerfs for her in multiple places.
CLIODHNA

BANSHEE’S WAIL
  • Decreased Base Damage on first two hits from 35/50/65/80/95 to 30/45/60/75/90
  • Decreased Base Damage on final hit from 70/110/150/190/230 to 60/100/140/180/220
    • (Decreases Total Damage from 140/210/280/350/420 to 120/190/260/330/400)

FLICKERING VISIONS
  • Decreased Base Damage from 90/145/200/255/310 to 70/125/180/235/290

The SMITE Pride Month begins Wednesday, and Classic Conquest returns, too!

That’s about it. If there’s a new SMITE patch, we’ll let our readers know.

Genshin Impact Down for Maintenance on May 30

  by   James Lara  
May 30, 2022 10:47 pm in News

Trying to play some Genshin Impact but noticing some server issues? Don’t worry it’s not you, as previously mentioned in the official 2.7 patch notes, Genshin Impact servers are down for some planned maintenance.

In case you missed the memo, yes Genshin Impact servers are currently down as the developers are preparing them for the “Hidden Dreams in the Depths” update that went live for pre-load sometime ago.

They should be up real soon as they were estimated to be down for only five hours. Fortunately for you, studio miHoYo will be compensating for the down time with some Primogems, 60 per hour to be precise. Assuming to servers are down for the full five hours, that’ll net you a full 300 Primogems, more should the maintenance be extended. Not bad, right? Hopefully it doesn’t come down to some extended down time.

We’ll be sure to update this post once it’s been confirmed (or not) that the servers are back online, so stay tuned!
