Following Posh Pets album, Ever After Stickers Album will be released on April 8th and will end on June 3rd, offering eight weeks of gameplay, just like before.
This time, the story seems to have stepped straight out of a fairy tale. The album will be themed around classic fairy tales, and players will receive 24 unique sets of stickers inspired by classic stories like Cinderella, Pinocchio, and Little Red Riding Hood. In addition, there will be new features, updated events, and the most generous rewards to date.
This guide will show you the new content of Monopoly Go Ever After Stickers Album.

Fairytale Shut DownThis mode now features even more fun gameplay. Instead of just destroying landmarks, you'll play a mini-hide-and-seek game where a hidden pig appears after each successful attack. Depending on the items you find, you can earn extra dice rolls, milestone progress, or tournament points, making Fairytale Shut Down more valuable than ever.
Bank HeistsBank Heists is one of the most frequent mini-games in Monopoly Go, significantly impacting a player's finances. This update introduces a magical mirror system. Opening doors gives you a chance to discover hidden gems, boosting the final reward. This adds a layer of strategy and luck to every heist.
Ever After Chance CardMonopoly Go Ever After Stickers Album adds Chance Card, which instantly transports you to either Shut Down or Heist. It's a simple change, but it makes the game faster-paced and adds more unpredictability.
Enchanted StorybookOne of the biggest highlights of Ever After Stickers Album is Enchanted Storybook, undoubtedly the most influential new system in the sticker collection genre.
In Ever After Stickers Album, you can obtain storybooks by participating in events, completing quick victories, and progressing through Tycoon Express. Opening a storybook will reward you with a sticker pack related to the later outfits in the story, but unlike the previous versions, you can choose which story outfits you want to collect.
This means you have more control over your sticker collection progress, rather than relying entirely on randomness. If you change your mind midway, you can switch to a different story and try to collect different outfits.
In addition, each storybook has a chance to trigger Lucky Fairies, which offer extra surprise rewards.
Fairytale-Themed Events and MinigamesAll the events from Monopoly Go will return, incorporating fairytale elements, such as:
You can build fairytale-themed structures with your friends in Partners. Treasures include elements like castle exploration and finding hidden items. Tycoon Express will be reimagined as a fairytale journey. Racers will be set in a magical fairytale world and will feature a new Flag Drop feature, allowing teams to collect extra flags before the match begins, giving them a head start. Not ReturningTo make room for all the new features, the following previous mechanics will be temporarily removed from this album but may return in a future Monopoly Go Album:
Lucky Coin Style Tokens & Accessories Community Deluxe Drop A New Community ExperienceEver After Stickers Album will also introduce Rolling Ever After, a community-driven feature where players can vote to collectively shape an evolving story.
As community members make choices, the story progresses, and players can unlock shared rewards based on these choices. This is a completely new way to play, no longer limited to rolling dice and collecting items.
That concludes the overview of Monopoly Go Ever After Stickers Album. In short, the brand-new collection progression system, a variety of beautiful stickers, and limited-time events will launch on April 8th. It promises to be one of the most feature-rich albums to date, offering players unprecedented control and gameplay. Let's wait and see!
How to Feed Scrappy Different Fruits in ARC Raiders to Get Different Items? | The Player's Best Companion
Scrappy, a great companion for players, has always played a significant role in the game. Recently, I fed Scrappy a lot of fruit and thoroughly figured out how its new feeding system works. Scrappy has now become an extremely efficient looter; you can even get quite a few powerful items from it.
Below is a detailed explanation of Scrappy feeding mechanism, the corresponding $1 for various fruits, the most worthwhile fruits to feed, and the locations where various fruits can be obtained.
Scrappy Feeding MechanismThe new feeding function allows you to add fruit to the food queue. You can select any fruit from your inventory and add it to the queue; Scrappy will automatically eat it when you enter a raid.
As long as you enter a raid and stay for at least 6 minutes, the fruit at the top of the queue will be eaten, and you will always get a random item of the corresponding type.
Whether you successfully extract or die, the reward will always trigger as long as you stay for 6 minutes.
Once the fruit is placed in the queue, it doesn't need to be added repeatedly for the next five rounds; the system will automatically consume it sequentially.
You just need to play the game normally and then come back to collect the items found by Scrappy.
Of course, all of this is random. Each type of fruit has a fixed drop rate for items. It's worth noting that, based on my current testing experience, extending the raid time doesn't help increase the drop rate.
It's best to level up Scrappy first to maximize item acquisition efficiency.
Below are the items and resources needed to upgrade Scrappy.
Level 1: None Level 2: 1x Dog Collar Level 3: 3x Lemons, 3x Apricots Level 4: 1x Cat Bed, 6x Prickly Pears, 6x Olives, Level 5 (Max): 3x Very Comfortable Pillows, 12x Mushrooms, 12x Apricots Rewards for Each FruitDifferent fruits correspond to different workshop station materials. They don't drop basic materials; instead, they directly produce advanced materials and even finished products. The rewards for each fruit are detailed below.
OlivesSpecifically used in Medical Workshop. They yield medical crafting materials or finished products, such as Durable Cloth, Antiseptic, Great Mullein, ARC Powercell, Tick Pod, etc. They do not provide basic materials like Fabric, Rubber Parts, or Plastic Parts.
MushroomsRelated to Gear Bench items; they can even directly yield finished equipment. Many players have already obtained rare equipment like Safekeeper from Mushrooms.
ApricotsThese yield Gunsmith crafting materials, and with luck, you can directly obtain weapons, including key items for crafting legendary weapons like Queen Reactor and Matriarch Reactor.
LemonsUsed in Explosives Station, primarily producing Explosives materials such as ARC Alloy, Crude Explosives, Battery, and Explosive Compound. With luck, you can also obtain powerful throwables like Wolfpack and Deadline.
Prickly PearsUsed in Utility Station, these can yield Mechanical Components, Ropes, Sensors, and even useful finished items like Photoelectric Cloak and Snap Hook.
AgavesSpecifically produce crafting materials for gun mods and accessories, including the Silencer 3, Kinetic Converter, and Horizontal Grip. Some mods don't even have Blueprints in the game yet can still be obtained from Scrappy, making them extremely valuable.
Fruit MixCan only be crafted in-game. The recipe is 1 Lemon + 1 Apricot + 1 Prickly Pear.
While it's supposed to be three fruits for one, this time it's a little different. Scrappy usually gives one fruit for one item, but this time the fruit combination usually gives you two items. And these items can be various ground materials.
In addition to random items, each fruit also provides 5 corresponding basic materials:
Olives Fabric Mushrooms Plastic Parts Prickly Pears Rubber Parts Fruit Mix gives 5 each of Seeds, Plastic Parts, Metal Parts, Chemicals, Fabric, and Rubber PartsThis is one of the reasons why Fruit Mix is so cost-effective.
Most recommended fruits AgaveCan yield rare items that cannot be crafted in-game, such as the Kinetic Converter and Horizontal Grip. With maximum strength and rarity, it's the best choice for feeding to.
ApricotsStablely produce high-grade Gunsmith materials and even legendary weapon core components, suitable for players seeking powerful weapons.
Prickly Pears are suitable for players lacking Utility items, Lemons are suitable for players who need Explosives, and Mushrooms are more gear-oriented.
Locations for Various Fruits Fruit Baskets: The most stable and efficient source; two baskets always spawn at Stella Montis Cafeteria. Agaves: Primarily spawn in the area around Buried City, and can also be obtained from Fruit Baskets. Apricots, Lemons: Densely wooded areas in Damn Batvely at The Blue Gate. Prickly Pears: Pattern House and the outskirts of Buried City. Mushrooms: Spaceport is currently the best spawn point.To quickly obtain fruit, prioritize Fruit Baskets; the efficiency is far higher than gathering them individually. These are the new features for feeding Scrappy fruits. Go test them out in the game!
Don't Get Melted! The Ultimate Strategy for Farming Assessor & Vaporizers in ARC Raiders
ARC Raiders Flashpoint update is now live, bringing significant changes and many new features. Today, we'll focus on the newly added Close Scrutiny.
This guide will show you how to find Assessor and defeat Vaporizers to obtain rich loot, hoping to provide a better gaming experience.
Close Scrutiny meaningClose Scrutiny is a brand new map condition in ARC Raiders Flashpoint update, and it's perhaps the most challenging map condition to date. A giant ARC called Assessor and a new flying ARC called Vaporizers appear on the map, ensuring that every mistake will cost you.
Assessor doesn't directly attack the player, but its appearance triggers an unprecedented density of ARC patrols throughout the area. Locked doors will become ineffective, the loot drop rate for regular chests and civilian hotspots will drop significantly, and all reward density will be concentrated around Assessor.
Vaporizers are essentially Queen and Matriarch. Therefore, it's easy to see why Vaporizers are difficult to defeat and extremely annoying.
However, if you're willing to take the challenge, you can obtain a wealth of items, including:
1. Dolabra blueprint (the new energy shotgun) 2. Arc materials 3. Assessor Matrix epic-quality resource (required for High-Gain Antenna project) AssessorNext, let's see how to find Assessor and obtain $1.
Assessor is a large, three-legged landing platform that appears a few minutes after Close Scrutiny mode begins and continues to descend throughout the raid. You'll likely see them fall from the sky, emitting red beams upon landing to help you track their location.
Quickly approach Assessor; you'll find three containers. You can follow the path upwards, open them, and loot them. If platform hasn't unfolded yet, you'll need to wait for it to unfold before you can open it.
Intruding into Assessor will trigger an alarm, alerting nearby ARCs and spawning more enemies, including Vaporizers. Other players will also hear the alarm and know you're trying to collect items.
Assessor is heavily guarded, so you can choose to approach stealthily or confront it head-on. Here are some methods I recommend to help you loot:
1. Use Photoelectric Cloak for infiltration and extraction. 2. Throw smoke grenades while breaching containers to avoid being tracked by ARCs. 3. Bring friends and powerful gear, such as Hullcrackers and Wolfpacks, to kill Vaporizers and other spawned ARCs. VaporizersVaporizers are a bit tough, but not impossible to deal with. Below are three ways to deal with these ARCs.
First, you can choose to bring Renegade, Anvil, or Wolfpacks, because there's no easy way to defeat them. You can't expect to kill them instantly by throwing a Grenade, since they have a shield like Matriarch. After you throw a Grenade, they will immediately deploy their shield.
Vaporizers have two thrusters on each side of their front and two on each side of their back, for a total of eight thrusters. Your most important task is to focus your firepower on these thrusters.
Vaporizers not only have shields similar to Matriarch, but their attack method is also similar to her laser attack. Vaporizer's attack lasts for five or six seconds. If you are exposed to its attack range during this time, you're basically done for, as its damage is extremely high.
RenegadeIt takes about four, or five bullets from Renegade to take down one thruster. There are thrusters in every corner of ARC, which you need to destroy one by one. After destroying two thrusters, it will get stuck and start making strange movements.
After destroying two thrusters on each side, it will either fall to the ground or fly up in a very strange way, likely dying after a few falls, making it easy to take down. This process takes about 20-30 bullets.
AnvilThe most important thing when dealing with Vaporizers is to have cover; you can't fight them in open areas. Shoot it with Anvil; a shield will rise around ARC. After it disappears, continue attacking with Anvil. Anvil deals slightly more damage than Renegade, although its rate of fire is slightly slower, allowing you to destroy thrusters faster with fewer bullets.
It takes about three or four shots from Anvil to take down a Thruster. As mentioned before, after taking down two, Vaporizers will start making strange movements, flying around. This is your chance to attack and eliminate them.
WolfpacksNext, we'll explain how to use Wolfpacks to defeat Vaporizers and obtain rewards. To effectively utilize Wolfpacks, we need to maintain a certain distance from Vaporizers, approximately 100 meters, as Wolfpacks' maximum aiming radius is 100 meters.
It's recommended that you first attack ARC with Seeker Grenades. You'll see its shield appear. Then wait about 10-15 seconds before throwing Wolfpacks. Remember, you must wait for the shield to disappear before using Wolfpacks, as the shield needs to recharge, and this is the best opportunity.
This concludes the article on ARC Raiders Close Scrutiny. If you have any better methods, please feel free to add them.
ARC Raiders Flashpoint 1.22.0: New weapons, revamped gear, and a deadlier battlefield revealed
Many of you have probably been following the news about ARC Raider 1.22.0 Flashpoint patch update, which is truly exciting. Let's dive right in and learn everything about this update. Here's a sneak peek: you'll see revamped gear, ARC, skins, and the combat system, bringing you a completely new experience.
Before you try it out, if you're expecting certain fixes to meet your expectations, don't miss any opportunity to learn more.
If you still have questions about this patch update after trying it out, feel free to leave them in this guide.
New ItemUpon entering the game, you'll see a new item called Sturdy Base. The changes to this item aren't particularly groundbreaking. Besides displaying your rewards, you can also obtain considerable rewards and items, such as ARC Alloy, ARC Flex Rubber, and ARC Performance Steel, giving you an advantage beyond just weapon equipment.
Feeding ScrappyHere in Workshop. Scrappy has undergone significant changes. A Collection Box has been added to the area, containing records of the rewards triggered after feeding Scrappy. So, actively feed it and obtain the parts you need.
Different feeds will provide different feeding rewards:
Olives: Basic new fabric Apricots: Basic metal parts Lemons: Chemicals Prickly pears: Rubber parts Mushrooms: Plastic parts Agave: Assorted Seeds Fruit mix: Everything New SkinsShift your focus to the shop. Many new skins await your visit. First, check out ARC Raider Wasp Hunter Set, priced at $19.99. First, let's look at ARC Raider Wasp Hunter Set, priced at $19.99. In addition to being able to change the appearance of colors to meet your different matching needs, you can also do whatever you want with the parts inside this set, such as Helmet and Tech parts. The flexibility is far greater than you expect.
In terms of details, the detachable mask, shoulder pad, and sleeves with built-in cables are all highly customizable. Adding the red and white variant, Helmet, and Thrust Hammer, Wasp Hunter Set totals 2,400 Raider tokens, making it a great value compared to its actual price.
Next, let's look at Brigade Set. If you already have Electrician Backpack, then you have no reason to refuse to buy this set. You can purchase it directly at the super low price of 900 Raider tokens and then have the color variant.
The key update to this set is the skin. You can freely choose from blue and white, white, black and gold, and red, black and green color schemes. The helmet components don't restrict your choices. There's also a Hip Bag and a Tech Bag that can be removed, long pants can be turned into shorts, and the color of the mask will change over time.
New Weapons and New EnemiesNew weapons include Canto and Dabra. Canto is a fully automatic submachine gun. Dabra, as an energy shotgun, will likely be of gold quality. These weapons are all quite powerful, and it would be even better if they were easier to obtain. Focus on acquiring $1 to craft weapons.
While upgrading your weapons, keep an eye on your new opponent. Vaporizers have become part of ARC enemy. Its highlight is that it releases a laser powerful enough to vaporize you. However, its appearance is also full of technology and fashion sense.
Keys and LootThe most noteworthy change in this patch is the increased quality of loot obtained from all locked rooms. The increase in value depends on the key color. It's clear that player feedback has been considered. The implementation of this suggestion allowed things to continue on a positive trajectory.
Generally, if you have purple keys, you'll get the most loot compared to other key colors, followed by blue keys and then green keys. This will greatly improve your key utilization, carrying, and storage.
Crafting System and Balance AdjustmentsAdditionally, there are some minor optimizations, improving ARC Raider crafting system and adding some hidden items to the console. Furthermore, if you want to create a Bobcat, clicking on “acquire resources” will display a detailed list of the materials you will need, allowing you to prepare accordingly.
This balance adjustment primarily strengthens Rocketeers. They now take less collision damage and are no longer immediately destroyed after being stunned. Firefly Burner has been replaced with a Canister, so it will spew fire when shot, potentially proving useful as a fire torch.
Map RelatedThe new map state, Close Scrutiny, has also been introduced. At this point, the locked doors are no longer there, and the overall value of loot in the area has been reduced, while the number of arc loots has increased. This makes your activities more dangerous, so stay careful and vigilant.
There are also several map changes. A quick look reveals that the number of Sentinel spawn points on Dam Battlegrounds has increased. The areas in Buried City that previously caused lag are no longer present. Leapers, Bombardiers, Bastions, and Rocketeers are also more prevalent.
ARC Raider 1.22.0 Flashpoint patch has continuously optimized many details and addressed many issues. In addition to covering the core content in this guide, there are other minor optimizations waiting for you to discover.

Other Games Mar 26, 2026Driving to victory: Monopoly Go Hello Kitty Racers - Team vs. solo rewards, item strategies, and double medal finale
Amidst much anticipation, Monopoly Go has launched Tycoon Racers event. If you're a Sanrio fan, you definitely can't miss Hello Kitty Racers, with amazing skins and rewards waiting for you.
Monopoly Go: Hello Kitty Racers officially launches on March 25, 2026 at 1 PM ET. Within the next 24 hours, you can quickly form a team or choose to participate solo. The event ends four days later at 4 PM ET, allowing you to participate in three races.
If you want to see more content that interests you, don't hesitate to keep your eyes peeled.
Ranking RewardsLet's start with the game rewards, which you'll find most interesting. The difference between team and individual competitions is not only in the number of participants, but also in the fact that four individual players compete against each other, and Monopoly Go Stickers Packs they ultimately receive are also different. The gameplay remains the same.
Team Race RewardsFirst Place:
Pompompurin Style Token Wild Sticker Swap PackSecond Place:
Purple Sticker Pack Blue Sticker PackThird Place:
Blue Sticker Pack Pink Sticker PackFourth Place:
Yellow Sticker Pack Green Sticker Pack Solo Race RewardsFirst Place:
Board Token Blue Sticker Pack Pink Sticker PackSecond Place:
Pink Sticker Pack Yellow Sticker PackThird Place:
Pink Sticker PackFourth Place:
Yellow Sticker Pack Item UsageIn racing events, to increase race speed, the game provides additional power-ups, such as the previously seen Lucky Rocket Booster and Overload Brake. Fortunately, the change in event theme does not alter the item mechanics, reducing confusion.
Ball and Chain skill has a relatively precise application; The use of Ball and Chain is relatively precise. It can be applied to a specific player you select, causing their throws to be reduced by half after being bound to the chain, essentially imposing a braking effect on the opponent. The effect won't stop until the opponent breaks free. Any team is within range as long as you want to use it.
Lucky Rockets are also a common sight in regular race events and are your old partner. Their existence is relatively valuable to you due to their usage characteristics, so find the best time to unleash their full potential. Using items wisely is part of your winning strategy.
Team Springs are obtained as milestone rewards in races. The number collected is significantly different from the rockets above, allowing you to collect a large number. Their function is to charge your Spring. Moving on the track also charges it, greatly improving overall efficiency.
Once a Team Spring is fully charged, it also grants an extra free use of the dice launcher, although only once, but you'll receive a random Multiplier apply. Furthermore, during team competitions, all members of the team can enjoy this bonus. After it's over, you are allowed to continue to recharge your Spring knowledge.
GameplayFor the limited-time collaboration event, it largely follows the original racing game arcade format. If your goal is Pompompurin Style Token, then participating in team races is the only option. Don't worry, once you understand team battles, you'll master solo battles. The basic strategy is to collect flags, compete against other players or teams, and achieve the highest score to win.
First, use Team Up button on the screen to form or join a team within the game's time limit. This will earn you $1. Note that the deadline to leave a team is before the first match begins. After that, you can simply wait for matchmaking. The game is also more user-friendly, preventing players or teams with significantly different net worths from being matched together.
Next, the exciting competition begins. There are three matches per day. The finals are particularly noteworthy. The allure of double medals promises a fierce battle that will directly impact your team's final ranking.
As the event progresses, collecting flags should become an integral part of your routine, as it's an essential tool for earning points. Rolling the dice on the board also works. The points earned power your car on the track, allowing you to complete more laps. In the initial stage, the selected multiplier, combined with Big Dice Popper, will cause the corresponding movement distance to be multiplied.
1, 2, 5, and 10 laps are the milestones in your race. Once you complete them, the corresponding lap milestone rewards await you. The determined rankings will award varying numbers of medals. Medals will also contribute to the points system, which will be used to determine the final rankings for the awards.
The key to victory is to stay vigilant, as racer events can change in an instant. Keep an eye on the race's end time, strategically save your flags, and maintain a full-on sprint towards the finish line. Similarly, we should try to deplete more of our opponent's flags, putting them at a disadvantage in the next match. Prepare for your decisive moment!
Monopoly Go brings racer events to you in the form of Hello Kitty Racers. If you're interested, take action!

Diablo 4 Mar 25, 2026How to Quickly Obtain and Craft Diablo 4 Season 12 Mythic Items?
Since the nerf to Diablo 4 Season 12 Mythic Prankster dungeons, not only have the rewards decreased, but the drop rate of Tributes of Ascendance has also been reduced, making it more difficult to obtain Mythic items. This guide will provide you with methods to quickly obtain and craft Mythic items.
Obtaining Resplendent SparksSince rewards and drops are reduced, players need to increase their crafting of Mythic items. Therefore, you must obtain the necessary mats for crafting $1 - Resplendent Sparks. During the season, you can obtain at least 5 Resplendent Sparks.
The first spark is obtained at Season Rank 4, after defeating Lilith on Torment 1. The second spark is obtained at Season Rank 6, after defeating bloodstained boss on Torment 3. This is also Capstone for that rank.
The remaining two sparks are obtained at level 7 after defeating Lilith on Torment 4 and completing Capstone.
So, what about the fifth spark? This is something players need to pay extra attention to. At level 24, Brutality Reputation Board for this season will grant players an additional spark. Did you think that was the end of the spark farming?
Please note that Diablo 4 Season 12 Reputation Board is character-specific, meaning that every time you create an additional character, you'll receive another extra spark. Now you understand the unique aspect of farming sparks this season!
How to farm sparks more effectively?Creating a new character and getting the extra spark at level 24 isn't easy. You'll need to quickly level up your alt, choosing the same class as your main character. You can level solo or with friends, whichever is more convenient, and keep leveling them up to level 60.
When leveling solo, you'll need to use your original level 60 character, save Whispering caches, and then open them on your alt. Reaching level 60 requires about thirty caches.
When leveling with a friend, have them guide you through Pit. Open Guardian's portal at the entrance and wait outside the boss room. Using this method, you can reach level 60 in just a few tries. This allows you to equip your alt with protagonist-colored gear, making it equally powerful.
Furthermore, to maximize your Killstreak reputation bonus, you'll need to optimize your jewelry. Besides equipping a Bloodied Amulet, it's essential to equip two Bloodied Rings. Don't forget to add Hunger affix.
This will increase your Killstreak reputation by 45%. Keep an eye out for Bloodied affixes or higher-level affixes on your main character; these can be used to increase reputation on your alt.
Another way to increase reputation is to place 4 Smoldering Ashes into Butcher's affix slot during Seasonal Blessing to gain an additional 20% reputation.
Of course, farming Helltide events will also help you maintain your Killstreak and make it easier to gain reputation. This is how you obtain unlimited sparks.
Mythic CraftingAfter collecting sparks as described above, the next step is to craft Mythics. There are different methods for crafting Mythics.
The first method uses 2 Resplendent Sparks and 50 million gold to craft Mythic in Blacksmith's forging equipment tab. Mythic unique obtained this way is random. If you don't want it, you can only dismantle it for a spark and recraft it until you get Mythic you want.
The second method allows you to obtain specific Mythic. The crafting location is Jeweler's Rune crafting tab, which will consume two sparks and three sets of runes. These are Magic Runes, Legendary Runes, and Rare Runes.
Choose one of these two crafting methods based on your needs and circumstances.
Directly Obtaining Mythic ItemsAlthough the reward per challenge has decreased from 5 Mythic items to 1, Mythic Prankster Sigils remain the best way to directly obtain Mythic items.
Teaming up and taking turns is a common strategy. Each player brings a Sigil before the challenge, so everyone will ultimately receive 4 Mythic items and 4 Sparks. This strategy makes each of your keys more valuable.
Alternatively, you can start with Tribute of Ascendance. Since the drop rate of Tribute of Ascendance is very low, you may need to open many Whisper caches to get any drops.
To increase the drop rate of Tribute of Ascendance, you can team up on Torment 4 to complete Whisper bounties. Item quantity will also increase. This is the best method.
While the drop rate is unreliable, obtaining Mythic from lair bosses is a viable method. Belial is highly recommended because of its highest drop rate. Other bosses can also be chosen, such as Andariel, Duriel, and Harbinger of Hatred.
In general, crafting Mythic requires farming sufficient Sparks using specific methods, while directly obtaining Mythic requires teaming up to challenge specific Torments. Once you master these strategies, you should be able to collect Mythic Uniques effectively. Wishing you a successful season 12!

Diablo 4 Mar 26, 2026Finally! Shattered Spirit Necromancer is absolute GOD TIER in Diablo 4 Season 12
Want to have a blast playing Shattered Spirit Necromancer in Diablo 4 Season 12? If you don't mind sacrificing your Minions and want to easily deal massive damage, then build I'm about to introduce is definitely for you.
However, this build is heavily focused on late-game gameplay, requiring a significant investment in Cooldown Reduction and certain specific Uniques to unleash its full potential.
This guide will introduce you to this incredibly powerful Shattered Spirit Necromancer build, excelling in clearing mobs, pushing through levels, and challenging bosses. But remember, you need specific cooldown reductions to truly unleash the power of this build.
Build worksShattered Spirit Necromancers, also known as Bone Spirit Necromancers, ranks among the top Necromancers in Diablo 4 Season 12. With the right setup, you can frequently use Bone Spirit, flooding the screen with Bone Splinters to tear enemies to shreds.
Strictly speaking, this build belongs to Basic Skill build. When using Bone Spirit, it fires Bone Splinters in all directions while simultaneously restoring your Essence. This allows you to continuously unleash Bone Splinters to eliminate enemies. Therefore, you need at least 200 Essence, and Bone Spirit's cooldown must be less than 7 seconds.
Previously, Rapid Ossification had a bug, but it has now been fixed. It's now easier to play; after the fix, the skill activates every 100 Essence consumed, and the more Essence you have, the higher cooldown reduction.
Shattered Spirit Necromancer build is actually quite simple to play. After casting Bone Spirit, Bone Splinters will spread across the screen, dealing full damage. Then, use Corpse Tendrils to gather all Bone Splinters together. During this time, make sure Soulrift is also active, as this will grant you Vulnerability and more Essence.
Meanwhile, you need to maintain sufficient distance from enemies so that Cursed Aura triggers free Decrepify. Afterward, simply keep casting Bone Spirit until all enemies are dead. After the skill effect ends, you can recast Soulrift and Corpse Tendrils to maintain output. Alternatively, you can frequently use Corpse Explosion to help build Essence and maintain some damage multiplier.
Equipped skills: Corpse Explosion Bone Spirit Soulrift Blight Reap Corpse Tendrils Ideal talents and Book of the DeadShattered Spirit Necromancer build in Diablo 4 is interesting because instead of using Enhanced cetera talents for Bone Splinters or Bone Spirits, we invest those points into build's passive skills. There is one exception: talent points also need to be invested in Decrepify, but you might find it's not on the hot bar; this is because of the existence of Cursed Aura.
Next, regarding Book of the Dead, we need to do something I dislike the most – sacrifice our Minions and Golems. However, this does boost our stats and provides some fantastic multiplier bonuses, so its worth it:
Skeleton Warriors: Reapers (Sacrificed) Skeletal Mages: Cold (Sacrificed) Golem: Iron (Sacrificed) To pick MercenariesIf you want to use it, you need to obtain DLD first. The best Mercenaries for Shattered Spirit Necromancer in Diablo 4 are undoubtedly Raheir and Aldkin. This is a very standard combination for Necromancers, providing strong defensive capabilities. Aldkin also provides cooldown reduction, reducing your active skill cooldown by 1 second, making it easier to cast spells consecutively.
Paragon LoadoutBelow, we'll focus on Shattered Spirit Necromancer's Paragon Board, applicable at 240 Paragon Points, which can fluctuate. The most important Glyphs to reach level 46 are, in order:
Eliminator Essence Gravekeeper Abyssal Sacrificial Ideal Gear and Legendary AspectsA major challenge of this build is that, with exceptions like Decaying Humerus and Wind Striker, most Legendary Aspects are located on Gear. Some Legendary Aspects required by Shattered Spirit Necromancer can only be obtained by disenchanting Gear.
Therefore, you'll need at least three Uniques: Crown of Lucion, Shard of Verathiel, and Paingorger's Gauntlets. If you're aiming for Mythic Uniques, keep an eye out for Heir of Perdition and Shroud of False Death.
It's worth noting that Shard of Verathiel drops in this season's DOOM collaborate, which you can obtain from chests, saving you considerable grinding time. Alternatively, you can choose to obtain it directly with $1.
Normally, your goal is 100% Resource Generation, 70% Attack Speed, 100% Critical Strike Chance, Bone Spirit under 7 seconds, and 100+ Casting Macabre Restores Essence. Ideally, you'd also need 200+ Maximum Essence. Of course, this is likely difficult, as these are ideal attributes.
In Diablo 4 Season 12, Bloodied Effects were added. Besides Bone Spirit, which is essential, here are some Diablo 4 item choices:
Helm, Chest, Gloves, Pants, Boots: +3% Maximum Life per Kill Streak Tier. Weapon/Offhand: Every 15 Kills, restore 20% of your maximum Primary Resource. Amulet/Rings: 10% increased chance for Runes during your Kill Streaks.This concludes the article. This article introduces a Shattered Spirit Necromancer build for Diablo 4 Season 12. We believe this build will elevate your gameplay, and we look forward to seeing you embark on your own slaughter journey.

WoW Series Mar 23, 2026It's insane! The biggest problem with WoW TBC Classic Anniversary remains unresolved!
Dear players, it's been over a month since Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary launched, and the popularity of this classic server is undeniable.
Data clearly shows that player activity on this server has been steadily rising, attracting not only many returning veterans but also a large influx of new players.
However, while enjoying the game, many players, like myself, have likely discovered a fatal flaw in this version – the overall pace is too fast, and the developers have been slow to make adjustments to keep up.
Instead of enjoying the game, we've been driven to exhaustion by various issues.
Based on my personal experience over the past month, I'd like to discuss some of the most prominent problems in the current version and offer some thoughts and suggestions, hoping to make this classic version more suitable for all players' playstyles.
Acquiring equipment requires too many HonorsFirst and foremost, Honor requirement for PvP gear is incredibly high, making Honor grind extremely tedious.
Currently, Battlegrounds offer a pitifully small amount of Honor. A single Battlegrounds session, lasting nearly half an hour, even with full participation, only yields around 200 Honor. However, a decent PvP set requires over 10,000 Honor, meaning countless Battlegrounds would be needed to complete a full set.
While PvP daily quests like Terraar and Hellfire can yield around 1,000 Honor, these quests lack true PvP combat. Alliance and Horde players tacitly agree to quickly capture towers and complete tasks solely for Honor. Players who genuinely dedicate themselves to Battlegrounds receive negligible rewards.
This system robs Battlegrounds of its original fun and forces players to invest exponentially more time and effort for a single piece of gear, making it a poor investment.
Leveling system is unreasonableSecondly, the leveling system from 58 to 70 is extremely unreasonable and completely out of sync with the short version cycle.
WoW TBC Classic Anniversary is a short-term server, lasting only 8 to 10 months, much shorter than the regular 18-month release, yet the leveling difficulty hasn't decreased at all.
Even players who enjoy questing will find their experience bar progressing frustratingly slowly even after two hours of focused quest completion.
They might be stuck around level 63 after a long time, and reaching level 70 will require a significant amount of time.
More importantly, for ordinary players, the time they can dedicate to the game each day is limited. They also need to squeeze in time for guild raids, leveling their main character's reputation, and exchanging badges for gear, leaving no time to level alts.
Equipment drop rate is too lowFurthermore, the extremely low drop rate for raid gear severely impacts the player's experience during raid progression and character development.
Whether it's a 10-man raid like Karazans or a 25-man raid, the drop rate for high-quality gear is ridiculously low. Many guilds have spent weeks trying to clear raids, yet still haven't gotten the gear they want. Even some common, useful gear, and even $1, is extremely difficult to obtain.
For casual players, opportunities to participate in raids are already limited. Finally managing to assemble a group for a raid, only to return empty-handed, leads to repeated disappointments that easily erode their enthusiasm for the game. The already short expansion, relying solely on luck to acquire gear, makes the progression path exceptionally difficult for many players.
In addition, the developers might consider adopting the approach from WotLK Classic, adding a vendor that allows players to acquire high-quality gear from previous phases using a specific currency.
Ultimately, the root of these problems lies in one thing: WoW TBC Classic Anniversary expansion is too short-lived, yet it retains the settings of a regular expansion without any adaptation, directly raising the barrier to entry for the game.
This version was originally intended to allow players to relive the classic experience and enjoy a short-term gameplay experience. However, the current settings have caused anxiety for most players, who, despite investing time, cannot keep up with the pace of the update, leading to significant frustration.
The developers have made some minor adjustments, such as lowering the exchange price of some Honor gear and optimizing the dungeon unlocking mechanism for alt characters. However, these adjustments only address minor issues and do not solve the core problem of the overly fast-paced update.
What we need are adjustments that are more aligned with the actual needs of a short-term seasonal server, allowing ordinary players to easily keep up and avoid excessively wasting energy and time on leveling, farming Honor gear, and grinding for equipment.
Have any of you encountered these problems while playing? Or do you have any different opinions or suggestions regarding the update adjustments? As long-time WoW players, we raise these issues not to complain, but because we genuinely hope that Burning Crusade Anniversary can be improved.
We hope the developers will listen to the players' voices and make truly effective adjustments in future updates, allowing every player who invests time and effort to fully enjoy WoW TBC Classic Anniversary, making the game world more relaxed and fun.

Diablo 4 Mar 20, 2026Diablo 4 x DOOM Collaboration Event $125 Cosmetics Spark Mass Player Discontent | More Expensive than DLC!
Dear fans, Diablo 4 Season 12 has just launched, bringing a wealth of new content. Besides transforming into The Butcher and experiencing the thrill of wielding this ferocious boss's power to annihilate all enemies, there's also the brand-new unique Bloodied items and Killstreak system to help you create unprecedented build power!
Of course, the developers didn't stop there. The day after the release of Diablo 4 Season of Slaughter, on March 11th, they also launched a new collaboration event with Doom: The Dark Ages. As a dark fantasy shooter, DOOM's intense combat and exaggerated visuals perfectly match the theme of The Butcher's carnage in Diablo 4 Season 12. Therefore, the event has generated considerable buzz since its launch.
However, after experiencing the event, many players didn't give the initial reviews of this Diablo 4 x DOOM collaboration a positive one. The player community described it as another pointless money-grabbing event. So, what's the real story? Let's take a look at the full details of this collaboration and share our thoughts. Then you can decide whether to participate.
DOOM: The Dark Ages Event ReliquaryThis collaboration event launched on March 11, 2026, coinciding with the release of Season 12, and will continue until April 26, 2026.
The highlight of this update is DOOM: The Dark Ages Event Reliquary. Like regular Reliquaries, players need to use a specific token instead of $1 to unlock rewards. The key token is Dark Ages currency, which can only be obtained by defeating Elie and Champion enemies during the event.
There are 10 items waiting to be unlocked in DOOM: The Dark Ages Reliquary. However, these items are usually just cosmetic and don't offer any real benefits to your character. If you're aiming for increased character strength, you can ignore them; if you're an avid collector, don't hesitate to add these cosmetics to your inventory!
Players can use these rewards to transform ordinary shields into Doom's Shield Saw and their melee weapons into Slayer Flails. These new weapon styles might bring some different fun to your monotonous killing spree.
In addition, during the event, players can collect Doom Chests dropped by defeating Lair Bosses, which have a chance to drop unique weapons that resemble Doom's Crucible Blade. Finally, once you unlock all 10 rewards, you can also access the exclusive Forsaken Gates Town portal.
If you log in to the game during the event, you'll also have a chance to obtain free unique emblems, with the following times:
The Dark Before Dawn emblem: March 11 PT / March 12 PKT Grandeur of the Gutted emblem: March 13 PT / March 14 PKT Rip and Tear emblem: March 15 PT / March 16 PKTIf you find out too late, the event may have already ended, but don't despair, as they will most likely reappear in a later Reliquary event. So stay tuned!
Collaboration Bundles Available in the Premium ShopBesides the event gameplay, the collaboration bundles in Premium Shop have become a point of contention because of their high price and low cost-effectiveness.
The core item in this bundle is the Doom Slayer Armor Pack, which includes cosmetics for all 7 classes and costs 5,700 Platinum ($49.99). Meanwhile, each Praetor skin for each class is individually priced at 2,500 Platinum (~$24.99) and cannot be used across classes, making it more expensive to collect all the skins.
There's also The King of the Forge-Wing Bundle, valued at 2,800 Platinum ($24.99). This bundle includes Mecha Dragon Serrat mount skin, which is only available for cat mounts.
Additionally, you can also purchase the unique Cyclopean Cackle Bundle and Souls of the Lost Bundle for 2,500 Platinum (~$24.99).
Attention! If you're interested, please note the timing: The premium shop content will be available on March 12 at 12:00 PM PT / March 13 at 12:00 PM AKT.
Besides these, there's a small surprise to look forward to: Cacodemon and Lost Soul Pets.
You can pet and interact with them. The Cacodemon and Lost Soul Pets are priced at 2500 Platinum each. Each pet comes with a Mount Trophy and an Emblem, offering a fantastic opportunity to enrich your collection.
The collaboration costs significantly more than the base gameWhile the collaboration items visually recreate Doom style, the overall pricing strategy has sparked considerable discussion among players.
The complete collaboration outfit costs $125, a price not only significantly higher than the upcoming Diablo 4's Lord of Hatred expansion at $39.99, but also exceeding the base game's price of $49.99. For a collaboration that only offers cosmetic content, this pricing is clearly excessive, disappointing many players.
Overall, this Diablo 4 and DOOM collaboration leans more towards cosmetic and commercial aspects, with relatively limited innovation and integration in gameplay. The high prices have deterred many players. However, setting aside the collaboration itself, Diablo 4 season 12's gameplay mechanics are excellent, and player interest remains high.
Please note that this event ends on April 26th, so join now to win your exclusive rewards. It's also worth mentioning that the new Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred DLC officially launches on April 28th, so you won't have much free time!

Other Games Mar 20, 2026ARC Raiders Update: New Enemies, Beard Customization, and Blueprint Controversy
ARC Raiders continues to bring players new gameplay experiences and insights with each update. This game, primarily focused on shooting and extraction, has launched a new seasonal event, mainly adjusting resource balance and also buffing enemies.
Each ARC Raiders update brings new challenges and opportunities, but player feedback on these updates can easily spark significant conflicts. Below is a breakdown of ARC Raiders update content, player requests, and subsequent developer updates.
IntroductionThe new event update largely follows this year's update roadmap, meeting player expectations. Shrouded Sky is the name of this update, and players can easily guess from the name that it will present significant environmental challenges.
Following the usual practice of seasonal events, Shrouded Sky creates environmental conditions unlike any before. The changes to the raid gameplay have many players eager to try their hand at the new map.
Hurricane map conditions introduce dust and debris into the air, affecting players' offense and defense. For example, strong winds often leave players overwhelmed in crisis situations.
On the other hand, sudden environmental chaos can also present an excellent opportunity to ambush enemies, maximizing damage while minimizing impact for a surprising and unexpected effect.
Open terrain allows hurricanes to rage more freely, increasing the difficulty of survival. Extreme weather and interference from ARC machines also place higher demands on players.
Update - Enemy and Character AppearanceThe update to ARC machines introduces two new ARC enemy variants. Breaking with established patterns, these new enemy variants alter combat strategies, such as in multi-location battles. To achieve victory, players are forced to change their strategies and step outside their comfort zones.
Besides these significant changes that force players to rethink their winning tactics. Other changes worth noting for players include changes to character appearance. Players can now equip various facial hair options.
Common hairs include stubble and beards, which undoubtedly add a fun element to otherwise monotonous battles and are a small way to showcase one's unique style. This also adds richness and diversity to Raiders' looting in Rust Belt.
Enhancement - ExpeditionIn ARC Raiders updates, players can clearly feel the developers' increasing emphasis on Expedition system, its importance self-evident. Initially, Expedition system was an experimental mechanism for recording progress.
Now, Expedition system is evolving into a more mature reputation system. Completing projects and objectives becomes the player's task; successfully completing a series unlocks personal milestones.
After completing an Expedition, the player's game progress is complete. They can choose to rewind and reset certain points, while also receiving permanent bonuses to better prepare for the next Expedition.
The rewards for completing Expeditions are quite substantial. Players can earn $1, receive character bonuses, increase warehouse capacity, and improve resource utilization. Throughout the year's update roadmap, players will find that Expedition system will be released in multiple cycles.
This also reflects that Expedition system may become a flagship feature of ARC Raiders, serving as one of its iconic elements. The highly distinctive Expedition system continuously satisfies players' curiosity.
Community - Mushroom WarsBesides the official new initiatives that have generated considerable discussion among players, some new hot topics have emerged in the games community, such as Mushroom Wars, which initially raises questions.
Regarding Mushroom Wars, mushrooms specifically refers to the organic resources needed for player exploration, which are generally very rare. However, as exploration progresses, players learn that resource spawn points are limited.
Waiting patiently at spawn points to obtain more resources has become a consensus among most players. Therefore, frequent battles erupt near spawn points, even those often located in remote and less-visited areas of the map.
This frequent warfare transforms resource acquisition into a predatory activity, significantly increasing the danger of the areas and making players vulnerable to death. This player-driven change in game mechanics is part of ARC Raiders' unique appeal.
ControversyLearning from the previous update, many players discovered a bug in the blueprint system. By employing specific techniques to farm chests at specific locations on the blueprints, players could obtain substantial amounts of weapons and loot.
This latest map update, however, patched the drop rate of resources, especially ARC Raiders blueprints. An excessively high blueprint drop rate is detrimental to gameplay.
Since this has negatively impacted player experience, to mitigate player frustration, developer Embark continues by increasing the probability of obtaining high-level crafting materials, thus reducing the negative impact of decreasing blueprint availability.
Every new game update inevitably draws criticism from a large player base, with a core focus on whether it protects their interests. Some players believe it's extremely beneficial for the long-term development of ARC Raiders. Others object, arguing that the acquisition speed of gear doesn't significantly improve.
Also Read: $1
ExpectationsThe latest update reveals that the next update will be Flashpoint. Flashpoint is expected to launch around the next phase of Escalation content cycle. While the developers haven't provided detailed information, players can generally infer from past updates that the map environment will probably change.
The biggest anticipated update for ARC Raiders is Rift Tide, expected to make a strong late-game appearance. The new environment will move away from Rust Belt, making exploring coastal biomes a new focus. The addition of a large ARC boss enemy will present players with even greater challenges.
The above summarizes the player's reactions to this update. Gathered here because of our love for ARC Raiders, please look forward to the next update!
