Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Wednesday, May 3, 2023 11:17 PM  Back in February we posted a deal on Logitech's K400 Bluetooth keyboard/trackpad combo device, which offered a convenient way to control Steam Deck, media PCs and other gizmos that don't come with built-in desktop-friendly controls. Today we're back with a similar deal on the Logitech Wireless Starter Kit, which bundles a K380 keyboard and M185 mouse for £40 (down from £50). Both elements are surprisingly high-quality for the price, with a nicer-looking and better-feeling scissor switch keyboard with circular keycaps and a compact 2.4GHz mouse that provides better speed and accuracy than a trackpad. |

Just like Difficulty I in Honkai: Star Rail "Signs of Fragmentum," Difficulty II makes finding Wubbaboo a bit tricky. Part of this is because you can't check the map. Another issue is that this time there are five hidden away, rather than just four. You also need to deal with one of the puzzles where you walk across panels once each in order to access an area where one Wubbaboo is. Not to mention the recommended level is 36. (I was at 40 and breezed through it all.) One of the easiest Wubbaboo to find at this difficulty level is in the "control room" area. As you're walking toward the hallway, you'll see it between some plants and a sign. Before that, though, you might see the Honkai: Star Rail "Signs of Fragmentum," Difficulty II Wubbaboo floating in the area between the two platforms leading to that control room. One that's relatively easy to find is a Wubbaboo behind one of the light panel puzzles. The best way I can describe solving it is as though you are writing the letter "Z," but you're starting at the bottom and going up instead of starting from the top and going down. And here's where the Wubbaboo is at the end of that "test." The last two Wubbaboo are at the end of dead ends stemming from a single room in Honkai: Star Rail "Signs of Fragmentum" Difficulty II. If you go the one direction that involves a hallway that cuts up, walk to the very edge of it. A Wubbaboo will be floating there. So, if you head back to the southern room after being in basically the room with two possible dead ends, turn around. Once again, Honkai: Star Rail "Signs of Fragmentum," Difficulty II features a Wubbaboo hiding above a doorway. Scan it with the camera and you're good. This was the last one I found, and I kind of hate myself for it since I already knew from the first difficulty level that they can hide up there. As a reward for meeting all objectives, you can get a three-star Guard's Uniform of Old Relic, 3 Adventure Logs, 3 Condensed Aethers, 60 Stellar Jades, and 8,000 Credits. Honkai: Star Rail is available for PCs and mobile devices, and PS4 and PS5 versions are in development.

Once you finish the Asta Companion Mission "You Already Know Me" in Honkai: Star Rail three difficulties of the "Signs of Fragmentum" sidequest open up. These aren't too difficult, but instead involve paying close attention. That's because an objective is finding Wubbaboo. However, because this is a special challenge space, you can't open the map. However, to make things a bit easier, here are where you can find the four Wubbaboo hiding in Honkai: Star Rail "Signs of Fragmenum" Difficulty I. Note that you should be fine to clear all the extra objectives for bonus Stellar Jades if you're at level 34. The first Wubbaboo you need to scan with the camera appears just pass where you enter the area. It's blatantly floating near a researcher and not attempting to hide itself. [gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="961759" link="file"] The second Wubbaboo is the one that can get you. After heading into the hallway near the ring around the area, turn around. A Wubbaboo is hovering above the doorway. (I got lucky and found it on the first try, so make sure during these challenges you always check above doorways!) From here, the hallway has north and south branches. Head south, and right at the corner you'll see a Wubbaboo near the plants in Honkai: Star Rail "Signs of Fragmenum" Difficulty I. Finally, head north and go into the long room to find the last Wubbaboo. It's basically at the dead end, hiding behind a box. So you really need to beat the enemy at the back, then turn around to see it. [gallery columns="1" size="full" ids="961763" link="file"] As a reward for meeting all objectives, you can get a three-star Guard's Cast Iron Helmet Relic, 3 Adventure Logs, 3 Condensed Aethers, 60 Stellar Jades, and 6,000 Credits. Honkai: Star Rail is available for PCs and mobile devices, and PS4 and PS5 versions are in development.

Nintendo released new information about fusing and increasing weapon attack power with Link's new Fuse ability in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. In a screenshot of the game, shared by the official Japanese The Legend of Zelda Twitter account, Link is seen Fusing his weapon with a monster material to increase the attack power and durability of it. In the screenshot, Link wields what looks like a rusty sword, and he has combined it with the fang or horn of a monster, resulting in a power increase of 13, and a total power of 19. The Japanese caption accompanying the screenshot says that different type of horns, fangs, and other enemy parts dropped by monsters can be fused with weapons with the Fuse ability, to improvise weapons on the go. Additionally, sharp and hard materials in particular increase the attack power of weapons a lot. We can see the new The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom screenshot of Link fusing his weapon and increasing its attack power and durability on the tweet below. https://twitter.com/ZeldaOfficialJP/status/1653685830723207169

Baizhu is a 5-star Dendro healer and is the only Dendro healer in the game aside from Yaoyao, another 4-star character. This long-haired beauty was a popular character ever since his introduction two years ago. As the owner of the Bubu Pharmacy and caretaker of Qiqi, Baizhu has had a presence in the game since the start of the game. However, it wasn't until Dendro was introduced to the game that he was actually a playable character. Now that Baizhu is out, we can craft a team around him and include him in all our future adventures. Here's our Genshin Impact guide on the best Baizhu team comps. Baizhu wields a Catalyst and can be summoned on the Limited Event Wish banner between May 2 and May 23. After this date, Baizhu won't be available to summon until he receives a re-run banner.

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Wednesday, May 3, 2023 5:51 PM  Fans of classic 2D beat 'em ups have some exciting news today. Publisher Modus Games announced that the legacy beat 'em up series Double Dragon will make a return in the form of Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons. This new installment comes at a time when several other franchises, such as Streets of Rage and TMNT, have received their own beat 'em up revivals. The debut trailer that recently dropped shows off the game's chibi-esque, pixelated art style as well as plenty of killer moves by the playable cast. In an alternate New York City ravaged by nuclear war, Billy and Jimmy Lee take action and challenge the gangs roaming the streets. This serves as an alternate story following the two brothers at a young age, presumably before their exploits in the original Double Dragon titles. Fortunately, the brothers don't have to tackle the city's many criminals alone. Marian joins the fray following her playable appearance in River City Girls 2... |
