Elden Ring's online co-op spin-off should be beginning its first big network test today, except it's all gone rather wrong.

     The best Civ 7 Civilizations for each Age

What are the best civilizations in Civ 7? At launch, there are 30 Civ 7 civilizations to pick from, including brand-new options like the Aksumites, and with the mix-and-match leaders and civs mechanic, you might be struggling with the mammoth choice in front of you.

Civilization 7 marks a new era for the legendary series of 4X games, introducing a host of leaders, old and new, and additional ways to secure victories. The only restriction when mixing and matching is that certain civilizations can only be played in specific eras using specific leaders or via quest unlocks. With all that said, we're here to break down the best Civilization 7 civs to help make your decision that much easier.

     Genshin Impact new characters in the 5.4 update and beyond

Want to know about new Genshin Impact characters? During each new update, there's usually at least one brand-new playable character introduced to the roster. They typically appear on event banners with increased drop rates, including one five-star character and three four-star characters.

While we know which characters are likely to appear on the next Genshin Impact banners, some characters featured in this guide might not be playable right now, but they can still be found in Genshin Impact. We've also included some characters who are rumored to join the free PC game down the line, but may not have an in-game model just yet. While none of this information is official until Hoyoverse says otherwise, here's a round-up of all the current rumors and speculation.

     Best PUBG settings for PC and Steam Deck

What are the best PUBG settings for PC and Steam Deck? The innovator of the battle royale genre has changed quite a lot over the last seven years meaning the hardware and settings you used at launch may not be suitable anymore. However, PUBG: Battlegrounds remains a game that is open to play for a wide range of gaming PCs and handhelds, with graphics settings that can be tailored to entry-level systems as well as high-end hardware.

Given how long PUBG has been around, you won't need the best graphics card to run it, but getting great performance and high fps is crucial to winning those tense 1v1 firefights. We've put together a handy guide to ensure you're using the best settings possible for your gaming PC.

Which characters are in 2XKO? Predicting the final roster isn't as easy to do with the League of Legends spinoff. After all, there are over 140 potential Champions to pick from.

Just like League of Legends and Valorant, we're fully expecting Riot to add to their roster of characters in the fighting game every so often. It's difficult to say how long it takes to create a fighter for 2XKO, but if other fighting games are anything to go by, we could expect a new roster addition every few months. The 2XKO release date is set for later this year, giving us plenty of time to analyze and assess the current roster of 2XKO characters and their movesets.

If your time with foundational PC strategy 4X game series Sid Meier's Civilization consists of exactly one save file that ended somewhere in the Middle Ages, don't beat yourself up, for you have plenty of company. When they got hold of detailed audience data for Civilization 6, Firaxis creative director Ed Beach and executive producer Dennis Shirk were dismayed to discover that fewer than 40% of their players ever finish a single game. Hence, to some degree, Sid Meier's Civilization VII's new Age system, which is designed to counter feelings of exhaustion by smashing the chronology up into more digestible chunks, with something of a Civ power level reset between Ages to stop you feeling like you're either hopelessly behind or so far ahead that ultimate victory is guaranteed.

Identifying a new genre is a fool's task, but I've never been wise. Sometimes a blossoming genre can be obvious, as when a huge success like Doom or Dark Souls comes along and inspires games for decades to follow. But sometimes a new genre is quiet, low-key, hiding just beneath the surface of a tumultuous industry. Sometimes you have to go fishing for it.

Let's catch the slippery "hangout game".

Elden Ring Nightreign will get "additional playable characters and bosses" via DLC, according to an entry on the game's Steam page. This isn't massively surprising, given that Nightreign is a multiplayer-focussed spin-off featuring preset Nightfarer heroes rather than custom RPG characters, as in vanilla Elden Ring. It also supports the idea that Nightreign is the foundation for a From Software Connected Universe of sorts, with characters and antagonists from the original Elden Ring, Dark Souls trilogy, Sekiro and Bloodborne reappearing in Nightreign via the Mystic Nexus of Monetisation.

Fantasy Life i PS4 and PS5 Ports Shown in State of Play

Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time, a new entry in the life sim RPG, will appear for the PS4, PS5, and PC in addition to the Switch. This comes after Gematsu and other folks noticed a PlayStation Store page briefly appeared for the game on January 2025. This is accompanied by another delay. Instead of showing up in April 2025, Level-5 announced it will now be out on May 21, 2025.

As in past entries, the primary goal in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time is to live a life. You choose one of 14 different roles, called lives, to accomplish quests and progress. These aren't necessarily combat-focused, as some are dedicated to crafting like the Cook or Tailor. There is also an overall story to go through, with this one involving some time travel.

A new trailer went over all of the Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time features, as well as brought up the PS4, PS5, and PC versions.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alqHzDtQvhE&ab_channel=LEVEL5ch%E3%80%90%E5%85%AC%E5%BC%8F%E3%80%91

There have been multiple delays when it comes to Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time. It was first announced for the Switch back in February 2023, and it was supposed to release on the system that year. In November 2023, it was delayed into 2024. For a while it had a Summer 2024 launch window, and Keiji Inafune even committed to that release expectation. For a while it had an October 10, 2024 launch date, before being indefinitely delayed again. An April 2025 launch window came up in September 2024. 

Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time will come to the Switch, PS4, PS5, and PC on May 21, 2025.

The post Fantasy Life i PC, PS4, and PS5 Ports Confirmed Alongside Delay appeared first on Siliconera.

Review Afterlove EP Is a Tale of a Love and a Life

Afterlove EP is Mohammad Fahmi's final game and, in a way, I felt like the nature of it also helped with coming to terms with the loss of an incredibly creative talent. It's the story of coming to terms with grief and a lost love, while also understanding that maybe they aren't truly lost and there's still hope for those left behind. That someone can not only find a new way to thrive, but also to help honor and ensure people feel how much they loved the special person who's gone. 

Rama's life is pretty promising as Afterlove EP begins. His band, called Sigmund Freud, has an opportunity to record an EP and potentially catch a big break. He's got a girlfriend he loves named Cinta, and she feels the same about him. He has a support system. It's all good, and the only hint that something is wrong is that Cinta is coughing after one of their latest shows.

Except then, when he's practicing a new song at home, he ends up missing multiple calls and texts from Cinta due to him having his headphones on. We can see them as it happens, with no way to stop him, forced to keep going through a rhythm minigame as an emergency is clearly underway. 

Cinta doesn't make it.

After a gap for grieving, Rama feels ready to move forward. He's hearing Cinta as he goes about his daily life and actually responds to her voice. But even so, he wants to get the band together and try and work on the EP that they didn't get to do before. While his friends get he's grieving, bandmates Adit and Tasya also have their own plans. To the point where Tasya enacts a deadline. Rama has 30 days to get it together ahead of opening for L'alphalpha, and if he can the band will stay together and give it a serious try.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0dSiS5Iay4&ab_channel=NintendoofAmerica

While Afterlove EP is something of a visual novel and life sim set in Jakarta, it plays around with genres. We're essentially in charge of Rama's life now. What we decide determines how his future goes. This means, after a brief tutorial, we determine what Rama does. Who does he talk to? When a conversation is going on, which responses do you choose? We get to see him deal with things like therapy, opportunities to perform, chances to play music and actually go through rhythm games for it, and potentially date some characters. 

The story in Afterlove EP is beautiful, heartwrenching, funny, and hopeful. We watch as Rama essentially finds a way to move forward after what happened to Cinta. Along the way, I felt like the conversations with her and memories that can be unlocked helped me understand why he was so devastated when she died. The characters around him, both friends and potential loved ones, also come across as real people. It's especially interesting since one sort of involves getting over Rama's initial misconception about who someone really and stopping being superficial. Like Coffee Talk, there's a strong focus on characters stories, relationships, and enjoying a window into people's lives. You can feel Fahmi's presence and influence here in all the best ways.

Given the strong focus on music here, I found it reassuring to hear how great the songs are. As Rama and Sigmund Freud prepares the EP, you'll go through the songs. Note indicators can come from the left and right sides. Both standard and held notes appear. As they hit the marker in the center, you need to press them in time to play. Now, I found it wasn't Hatsune Miku: Project Diva or Taiko no Tatsujin levels of gameplay. However, the original songs are fantastic. L'alphalpha did a great job with the soundtrack in general. So while I did find sometimes it didn't seem to register with the same precision as other rhythm games on the Switch, the fact the music is good and that part is more of a supplement to the actual adventure and story meant I let it slide.

The music isn't the only way the amazing ambiance comes through in Afterlove EP. It also feels like getting an idea of what daily life might be for young folks in Jakarta. The music we hear is in Indonesian. The shops we pass and world design calls to mind the city. Everything is also drawn and designed by Soyatu, an Indonesian artist. I also appreciated the color palette and the way it evokes feelings. For example, Rama's design is very muted in some ways, compared to others. Given he's grieving and gradually growing after what happened with Cinta, it's almost like we're initially seeing someone who faded into the background and lost the color in his own life, compared to some of the more vibrant set pieces and people around him. 

Afterlove EP is a touching look at life, love, grief, and what it's like to move on as someone comes to terms with a tragedy and looks forward. It's a beautiful game that manages to always be touching. I did find certain parts a little awkward, such as the rhythm game response timing and Rama responding and talking to Cinta when he's clearly aware he's with others who have no idea what's going on. But it is generally a lovely game and a charming final project from Mohammad Fahmi.

Afterlove EP is available on the Switch, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC.

A gameplay screenshot from the Deadzone: Rogue demo.

It's oddly comforting to see game demos pick up in popularity over the past couple of years over on Steam. I often find myself scrolling through whatever's available at a given time, and that's how I came across Deadzone: Rogue, a game that's actually much better than it might seem.

More specifically, I do feel that Deadzone: Rogue looks too generic and sterile for its own good, but its unexciting visual language actually hides something genuinely awesome and exciting. It's not quite on the level of Sulfur, keep in mind, but few things are. The download is fairly small (just over 5 gigs in size), and the full demo actually comes with a fairly decent chunk of content. What you're getting here is an unexpectedly dynamic and brutal System Shock and DOOM hybrid that's unlikely to leave you disappointed.

Deadzone: Rogue demo is totally free, and genuinely fun, so give it a shot

I've already seen a few interesting comparisons to Synthetik 2 floating about, and though there's some merit to those, Deadzone: Rogue definitely leans more heavily towards the two games I mentioned above.

Visually, this demo is like a less gritty and interesting cousin to Nightdive's System Shock remake. Gameplay-wise, it's a Roguelike DOOM 2016 with less blood and gore. The screenshots really do not do this game justice, however, and though I'll admit I was skeptical while the demo was downloading, actually sitting down and playing it made me a real believer.

The sheer smoothness of combat you get out of Deadzone: Rogue is one of those things you have to see to believe. It is strikingly polished and satisfying, and though its arenas are about as uninspired as they get, the core gameplay loop is more than strong enough to keep you gunning down cyborgs for way longer than you expected to.

The curious bit is that Rogue is related to the developer Prophecy Games' older "corridor extraction shooter" that actually is sitting in Steam Early Access since July 2023: Starsiege: Deadzone. I can't speak to that game's quality due to not being interested in the concept at all, but the assets and the general gameplay mechanics have been streamlined and improved upon for Rogue, and it all works quite well already.

Deadzone: Rogue doesn't currently have a proper release date, and it is the kind of game that you'd expect to spend a few years in Early Access. I've seen no word as to whether that'll be the case with Deadzone, but don't be surprised if it is. Regardless of all of that, and setting aside the game's uninspiring visual language, there's something really special hiding underneath. If you're even remotely interested in roguelites and high-octane FPS titles, do yourself a favor and give Deadzone: Rogue a shot. It is free, after all.

Avowed: a fantasy landscape showing a dark river in the foreground and a glowing mountain in the distance.

We're just a few days away from playing Avowed, the new RPG from Obsidian Entertainment. You know, that team that brought us one of the best Fallout games of all time. With the studio's growing success, it seems the developer is keen to stay afloat for a very long time.

Now, unless you're one of those people who got the Early Access version of the game, you'll be waiting on tenterhooks to dive into the world of Eora. In the meantime, Obsidian says it's got a 100-year plan in place, as noted by PC Gamer.

According to Marcus Morgan, Vice President of operations, and Justin Britch, Vice President of development, the Avowed studio would like to be able to celebrate its centenary. This would take us up to 2125, which is about 150 years away from the events that took place in Fallout: New Vegas.

A vow(ed)

According to the report, Obsidian may be able to achieve this by maintaining its stance as a relatively successful developer; not one that's too big for its own boots, but also not one that's so small and unwilling to adapt that it disappears into obscurity.

By sticking with projects that have a decent reputation with some "mild success," Morgan and Britch believe the team can keep investing in games that have more realistic sales expectations, but that are still worthy of note. Additionally, by maintaining its current staff culture, Obsidian could well be around for many more years.

As PC Gamer notes, the likes of Nintendo have done this, having been founded in 1889. Of course, that company didn't start off specializing in video games. That would have been impressive, seeing as the technology wasn't around back then.

We'll never know whether Obsidian Entertainment will still be in operation another 78 years from now, but we do know that if it continues to put out high-quality titles that do as well as they have, the studio will hopefully have the backing to keep going for a long while. I also know that I am slightly jealous of those who got a copy of Avowed early.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 - How to dodge and evade

Parrying and following up with a riposte is your bread-and-butter move during combat in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, but did you know you can dodge? You can, and dodging attacks is a good way to get the drop on your foes.

As it is with some gameplay elements, Kingdom Come 2 doesn't do the best job of teaching you how to dodge during combat. In fact, there's a chance you didn't even know it was an option — or you forgot. The dodge move is detailed in the Player menu under the Warfare section in the Combat tab. It's called Evade, and it can be enhanced by spending perkpoints on certain skills. But first, let's learn how to dodge enemy attacks.

How to dodge in Kingdom Come 2

Dodging in Kingdom Come 2 can be done by holding a direction while pressing the button or key for jump.

Based on your platform, a dodge can be performed by pressing:

  • The space bar on PC
  • The B button on an Xbox controller
  • The circle button on a PlayStation controller

Like with the parry, a successful dodge in Kingdom Come 2 is judged by timing the movement when the enemy is about to strike. Holding a direction and pressing dodge when the Perfect Block icon appears (the green shield) will cause you to quickly duck to one side or the other, allowing you to strike a surprised enemy. This is called a Perfect Dodge in the game. It does take some stamina, but it should give you the full view of an enemy's exposed side. They shouldn't be able to parry your strike.

To dodge, wait for the enemy to begin their attack. Hold left or right and press the dodge button or key when the Perfect Block icon appears. Attack the enemy after you move to their side.

With good timing, you can get around an enemy's exposed back:

Evading can also be used to move in or create distance. Pressing dodge while holding forward causes Henry to dart closer to the enemy. Holding back while dodging causes him to quickly step back, putting space between you and the enemy or avoiding their swing.

Dodging can be done with your chosen weapon (and even while equipped with a shield), but it works best when using lighter armaments such as one-handed blades. It's also a perfect way to juke foes during fistfights.

What skills enhance the dodge ability?

Screenshot by Destructoid

There are several perks you can unlock that make your dodge even better in Kingdom Come 2. The first is Nimble Stance in the Agility stat. Nimble Stance is available to purchase with a perkpoint at Agility level 8 and makes it so dodging costs 40% less stamina. Next, pick up Totentanz when you get Agility to level 12. It provides you with a 15% weapon attack bonus when you perform a Perfect Dodge. You should also consider grabbing the River perk in the Warfare skill list in the Combat tab. After completing a dodge or Perfect Dodge, it offers a +3 bonus for the Warfare skill and causes your stamina to replenish 15% faster for 10 seconds.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 - Hunting the Werewolf quest

When sheep go missing in Bohemia, chances are wolves are the culprit. But what if it's something more supernatural? That's the conceit of Hunting the Werewolf, a side quest you can take in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. But getting to it will take a bit of work.

You must complete a series of tasks before you unlock Hunting the Werewolf. First, you'll need to complete the side quests for getting Mutt. Doing so should introduce you to Herdsboy Siegfried, who puts you on the quest chain that leads Henry to hunt a werewolf.

Complete these tasks to unlock Hunting the Werewolf:

  • Find Mutt
  • Return to Siegfried and complete his activity, Sheep Among Wolves
  • Speak to Shepherd Smoliek and complete The Lost Sheep
  • Go to Shepherd Stanislav and finish Carrot on a Stick

When available, the Sheep Among Wolves task will appear as a red shield with an orange star just north of Tachov in the Trosky region. Wait for a while if it doesn't appear on your map. It should be available after a few in-game days. Otherwise, keep playing until the marker shows.

Speak with Siegfried and complete Sheep Among Wolves. Afterward, he'll tell you about two shepherds who also need help with their wolf problem. They'll appear on the map under the same red icon.

How to start Hunting the Werewolf in Kingdom Come 2

When you've finished the final task, you'll be told about Herdsboy Natan who has a sheep herd near Semine. He can also use Henry's wolf-hunting expertise. Look for the red shield icon northwest of Semine, south of Zhelejov.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 - Hunting the Werewolf quest - Natan location

Natan can typically be found watching his flock from a bench underneath a large tree. Speak with him and choose the dialogue option "I heard you need some help."

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 - Hunting the Werewolf quest - Natan
Screenshot by Destructoid

He does indeed; Natan has been losing sheep left and right. Henry assumes that wolves are once more involved, but Natan thinks it could be more serious. When the last sheep disappeared, Natan's investigation only resulted in him finding a pool of blood, a severed ear, and no wolf tracks. The conclusion? It's obviously the work of a werewolf! Agree to help, and Henry will be on his way with his best witcher impression.

Where to find the werewolf in Kingdom Come 2

Open up your map and head toward the quest icon, down the road to the west.

At a spot where the path splits is a small tree with an arrow sticking out and a pool of blood underneath.

Pull the "Bloodied broken arrow" from the tree to complete the first quest objective. Now, it's time to track down the missing sheep. You can use Mutt to track the beast by having him sniff the arrow, or you can follow the nearby trail of blood going into the forest.

Either way, you'll eventually come to, not a werewolf, but a camp of bandits hiding in the woods along the northernmost trail.

You need to enter the camp to confirm that you've found the sheep killers. There are two options to pursue here: sneak in undetected or kill the bandits. You earn different rewards depending on your choice.

If you decide to sneak in, wait for the lone guard to walk down the hill away from the camp. Another bandit is sleeping under a tent, so crouch low to not wake him up.

Either way, you need to examine the sheep remains on the rock to confirm the identities of the sheep killers.

Return to Natan with your findings. He'll reward you based on how you dealt with the bandits:

Kill the bandits reward:

  • Survival XP
  • Reputation
  • 25 Groschen
  • Schnapps
  • Weak Saviour Schnapps
  • 3 Bandages
  • Bread
  • 2 Cooked Onions
  • Even Die

Leave the bandits reward:

  • Survival XP
  • Reputation
  • 6 Groschen
  • Beer
  • Weak Chamomile Brew
  • Bandage
  • Apple
  • 2 Carrot

Killing the bandits offers a much greater reward, though Natan won't be happy that his request resulted in ending the lives of three men. If you left them alive, he'll say he plans to report the bandits to the Semine guard. Either way, his werewolf troubles are in the past. For now, hopefully.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 - Vidlak Bandit's map treasure location

During your efforts to locate Mutt in the side quest, Lackey, you may have come away with an... intriguing treasure map. The Vidlak Bandit's Map leads you to a treasure in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, and here's how to locate both.

You can take Vidlak Bandit's Map off a gang of thieves hiding in the forest northwest of Tachov in the Trosky region. Look for an Enemy Camp location in the hills between the lake and the road leading north from Tachov.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 - Vidlak Bandit's map treasure location - Enemy Camp location

At least four bandits are hiding out in the camp, so be sure to come prepared. If you found Mutt by now, you should take him for the fight ahead. Kill the enemies and loot their corpses for the map. It should be on the most heavily armored one.

Where to find Vidlak Bandit's Map treasure

Open up the map in your inventory and peer with wonderment at some bandit's crude take on the treasure's location.

Based on the lovely chicken scratch, we can surmise that the treasure is buried under a dead tree next to a river that splits off to a lake. Luckily, the location is close by.

The map is pointing to the river west of the Enemy Camp location. Look for a path nearby leading from the camp going northwest and follow it to a crossroads. Follow the northern path until it turns south.

Stop and leave the path once you're close to the river.

Search the area to find the dead tree as directed by the map. However, it appears the tree toppled over and is now lying in the river. Looking at the tree will cause Henry to comment on it. The tree appears on the map as "Hollow tree."

The treasure is gone, but don't panic! It's only been washed downstream. Follow the river until you reach a spot with two small, dead trees surrounded by cattails.

The Washed-up chest managed to float down the river and got stuck in the trees.

  • 300 Groschen
  • Golden Crucifix
  • Silver Cup
  • Tin Plate (2)

A player using the V move of Toji V2 (Unleashed) against another player in Verse Piece Roblox experience

Verse Piece late-game PvP and PvE is all about who has more damage and how quickly they can dish it out. Toji V2 Unleashed sword is one of the best swords for that purpose because of its high damage, mobility, and very quick animations. So, if you want to get one of the best swords in the entire Verse Piece, then follow our Toji V2 Unleashed guide below.

Full Toji V2 Unleashed Move Showcase

  • Preview of the Toji V2 Unleashed's M1 combo in Verse Piece Roblox experience
  • Preview of the Toji V2 Unleashed's Z move in Verse Piece Roblox experience
  • Preview of the Toji V2 Unleashed's X move in Verse Piece Roblox experience
  • Preview of the Toji V2 Unleashed's C move in Verse Piece Roblox experience
  • Preview of the Toji V2 Unleashed's V move in Verse Piece Roblox experience

Toji V2 Unleashed has very high M1 damage and quick animations, which makes him an excellent sword for grinding in Verse Piece. Short animations let you deal more burst damage with your moves and then switch to M1 combos for very high DPS. Even though his kit does have only four moves, they all have decent AoE and CC. Compared to some low-mobility swords like the Sung Jin Woo and Cid V2, the Toji V2 has an incredible dash X move as well.

Move Details
Z (33,500 Dmg) A whirlwind of slashes in a large area around you.
X (33,500 Dmg) Two short dashes with slashes, followed by a huge dash and a double slash in front of you.
C (34,300 Dmg) A flurry of blows followed by an empowered kick.
V (41,900 Dmg) A simultaneous slash-and-slam attack with a huge AoE.

How to Get the Toji V2 Unleashed Sword in Verse Piece

In Verse Piece, you can buy the Toji V2 Unleashed sword from the Toji Unleashed NPC in Jujutsu Village for 10k Gems, 1 Heavenly Spear, and 1 Spirit Soul Katana. You will need to have the Toji sword, the Rejected Zenit trait, and the Truthseeker race as well. Toji Unleashed can be found on the outskirts of the Village by the two log piles closest to the shore.

Gems and the Heavenly Spear are easily obtained by defeating Bosses and opening chests in Verse Piece. The other components are more tricky to get. So, we decided to dedicate a separate section for each of them further in the guide.

How to Get the Toji V1 Sword

To get the Toji V1 sword, you will only need 2,500 Gems, 1 Heavenly Spear, and the Heavenly Restriction trait. You can get all of these while farming the other Toji V2 components in Verse Piece. The Heavenly Spear drops from basically all chests in Verse Piece, while the Heavenly Restriction is a common legendary trait. Once you have both, head to the Desert Town and talk to the Toji NPC.

Crafting the Split Soul Katana

Split Soul Katana is one of the key components needed for the Toji V2 Unleashed sword in Verse Piece. Thankfully, you can craft the Split Soul Katana using 5,000 Gems, 100 Iron, 75 Black Iron, 1 Handle (Split Soul Katana), and 1 Blade (Split Soul Katana) at the Craft NPC on the Blacksmith Isle. Here is a breakdown of where you can farm each of these materials in Verse Piece:

  • Preview of the Spawn Dungeon menu with the Boss Rush dungeon highlighted in Verse Piece Roblox experience
  • A player fighting the Maki Boss in the Boss Rush dungeon in Verse Piece Roblox experience
  • The Bandit Leader mob that drops Iron material in Verse Piece Roblox experience
  • The Snow Bandit Leader mob that drops Black Iron material in Verse Piece Roblox experience

  • Gems: Bosses in the open world or dungeons.
  • Iron: Bandit Leader on Starter Island.
  • Black Iron: Snow Bandit Leader in Snow Village.
  • Split Soul Katana Blade and Handle: Maki Boss spawns in the Boss Rush dungeon and on the Lost Isle.

Obtaining the Truthseeker Race

The Truthseeker is one of the best races in Verse Piece, and it's also a key component needed for the Toji V2 sword. To get the Truthseeker race, use Race Rerolls and hope for the best. Exotic Races, such as the Truthseeker, are very difficult to get. It took me thousands of Race Rerolls to get it myself. So, if you run out of Race Rerolls, check out our Verse Piece fishing guide to farm more of them efficiently.

How to Reroll Traits and Get the Rejected Zenin Trait

In Verse Piece, you can obtain The Toji V2's signature Rejected Zenin trait by rerolling traits at the Trait Reroll NPC in Frost Town. If you get it while rerolling for Monarch or some other traits, make sure to store it. Rejected Zenin is an exotic trait in Verse Piece with a low 0.025% reroll chance. So, if you are unlucky, make sure to sell your excess materials at the Adventure Shop for more Gems.

How to Farm the Curse Worm

  • Preview of the Spawn Boss menu with the Toji Unleashed boss highlighted in the Verse Piece Roblox experience
  • Dungeon Ticket exchange menu in Verse Piece Roblox experience

Curse Worm material is a rare drop from the Toji Unleashed Boss on the Boss Island, which you can summon using Boss Tickets and Gems. However, keep in mind that Curse Worm's drop rate is extremely low, so it might take you a while to get it. You can exchange Mythical materials for Boss Tickets at the Ticket Exchange NPC on Bleach Island in case you run out of them.

How to Enhance the Toji V2 (Unleashed) Sword in Verse Piece

To upgrade the Toji V2 Unleashed sword in Verse Piece, visit the Blacksmith NPC on the Blacksmith Isle. You can enhance the Toji v2 sword up to five times, and each try costs you one Enhance Stone. However, there is only a 10% chance of the enhancement being successful. So, you will need around 50 Enhance Stones to upgrade Toji V2 Unleashed fully.

How to Farm Enhance Stones

If you want to grind Enhance Stones in Verse Piece, then fishing is your best bet. However, you can also get Enhance Stones from all types of chests. Chests drop from basically every Boss in Verse Piece. Rarer chests like the Exotic ones only drop from some powerful dungeon Bosses. Lastly, you can craft chests at the Craft NPC on Blacksmith Isle using other chests.

That does it for our guide on how to get Toji V2 Unleashed sword in Verse Piece. If you want to start deleting every enemy there is, then check out our Verse Piece accessories and trait passives guides as well.

Painter's Regret Treasure in Avowed

One of the few treasure maps you can find in the Emerald Stair region of Avowed is called Painter's Regret. The map depicts a small cave near a waterfall outside of Fior mes Iverno, but the exact location of the treasure is a mystery, even if you follow the map precisely.

To successfully find the Painter's Regret treasure in Avowed and earn the reward from it, follow the guide below.

How to start Painter's Regret treasure in Avowed

Before you head off on the journey to follow the treasure map, you need to actually find it first. The Painter's Regret treasure map can't be purchased from any vendor in Emerald Stair. Instead, you can pick up a physical painting somewhere in the region.

Specifically, you have to travel to the Farmer's Market location on the southeastern side of Emerald Stair. Here, head into one of the locked buildings on the east side of the location, which you can access by climbing in through a window on the backside of it. Inside the well-lit building, you'll find the Painter's Regret painting, which you can take to follow it as a treasure map.

The only way to start the Painter's Regret treasure is to pick up this painting. Screenshot by Destructoid

This starts the Painter's Regret Treasure Map quest in Avowed, so now, let's take a look at where you need to go to find the treasure.

Painter's Regret treasure location in Avowed

With the treasure map in hand, you can go about following it to the location of the treasure. As you can see on the map in your quest journal, there's a waterfall that's just outside of Fior mes Iverno in Emerald Stair, and the treasure is inside some sort of cave on the left side of the waterfall.

This exact location is southwest of Fior mes Iverno, just north of the Rootbound Godless Ruins and Belderreno's Lair. The best way to reach the treasure's location, however, is by coming from the north. There's a party camp waystone just north of the treasure and the Ranger Outpost to the northwest with a fast-travel beacon nearby. The map screenshot below shows exactly where you need to go for the Painter's Regret treasure:

The exact spot of the Painter's Regret treasure on the Emerald Stair map. Screenshot by Destructoid

If you come from the north, you can jump down some rocky cliffs to easily descend to the treasure's location. You can also come from the south or any other direction, but you'll have to take a longer route to reach the treasure. There's a winding path near the waterfall you can use to get up to the treasure, but this will involve climbing some rocks.

At the spot on the map we've outlined above, you'll be in the middle of a cliff, and there will be a small cave in front of you. There are no doors to the cave or anything to open, so you can just walk right in and open a chest on the left side of the cave. Inside the chest is the Painter's Brush unique trinket, which you can equip in the necklace slot of your character in Avowed.

This isn't the best necklace you can wear in Avowed, but it does increase your critical hit chance by 5%. If you're playing as a wizard or ranger who uses bows or guns, this can actually be a solid addition to your character's gear set. Aim for the heads of enemies and take full advantage of the extra critical damage if you decide to throw on the Painter's Brush trinket.

With that, the Painter's Regret Treasure Map quest has been completed, and you can potentially move on to another treasure map in Emerald Stair, such as Earthy Aegis.

Earthy Aegis Treasure in Avowed

Emerald Stair is full of secrets in Avowed, and one of them is the Earthy Aegis treasure map. This item starts a side quest where you have to look at a single image of some location in Emerald Stair and find a treasure nearby.

To successfully find the Earthy Aegis treasure and make your inventory a little heavier in Avowed, follow the guide below.

How to start the Earthy Aegis treasure map in Avowed

Let's pump the brakes on the treasure for a second and first learn how to actually find the Earthy Aegis map. This map isn't purchased through a vendor or given to you by any NPC in Avowed. Instead, you have to visit the Naku Tedek Grounds location in the southern part of Emerald Stair.

Looting the Earthy Aegis treasure map. Screenshot by Destructoid

Here, you can loot a chest on the western side of the grounds and find the Earthy Aegis treasure map. For what it's worth, you will visit the Naku Tedek Grounds as a part of the story in Avowed, so you can just wait to go there during a main quest or seek it out if you want to explore the map.

When you find the map, the Earthy Aegis Treasure Map side quest begins in Avowed, and you can now go seek out the treasure somewhere in Emerald Stair.

Earthy Aegis treasure location in Avowed

Now that you have the treasure map, you can view it from your quest journal to see that it depicts some kind of ruined building that sits above a water source. If you look closer at the treasure map, you'll also see that the treasure is accessible from the lower part of the ruined buildings.

If you're anything like me, you maybe had a vague idea of where this could be in Emerald Stair, but no real guess. I spent nearly 30 minutes scouring around all of the water sources in the region to no avail, but then I finally managed to find the ruined building depicted on the map.

You're looking for an area to the northwest of Fior mes Iverno. Specifically, the ruined building where the treasure is located is between Tama's Cabin and The Delemgan Glade. For an additional reference point, it's northwest of The Wildwoods and Lake Lacuna. You can see exactly where the ruined building is on the map in the screenshot below:

The map location of the Earthy Aegis treasure. Screenshot by Destructoid

At this ruined building, you won't be able to unlock the front door right away and head inside to grab the treasure. Instead, head right from the front door and go on a large tree branch that circles the building. Eventually, you'll reach a small window that's covered with smaller branches. You can peer through this window to see the inside of the building.

On the wall just to the right of the window is a switch you can interact with to open the front door. This is pretty easy to miss and you have to be fairly close to the switch to be able to interact with it.

Head back to the front door after pressing the switch, go inside the building, and loot the chest to secure the Earthy Aegis treasure. The treasure is the Nature's Ward unique shield, which is of Exceptional Quality and features some impressive stats. This was easily my best shield option when I looted the treasure.

Once you loot the shield, the Earthy Aegis Treasure Map quest has been completed in Avowed. If you're looking for more treasure, you can also seek out the Painter's Regret treasure map, which has a treasure that's not too far from the Earthy Aegis reward.
