Since CD Projekt released The Witcher 3's REDkit modding tools a couple of years ago, it's been cool to see location revamps and new quests for the decade-old RPG start to emerge from the woodwork pretty regularly. The latest that's caught my eye is a substantial overhaul of Gerry and co's hangout Kaer Morhen, with a veteran modder having taken on the task of fleshing out the area to match its depiction in the first Witcher game.

"As a kid, I'd sometimes go to work with my dad," Brady Bell tells me. "We'd drive onto the MGM lot, and I'd see coin-op games through the window of one office. 'That's Mr Spielberg's office,' my dad would say. I remember thinking, 'Wow - he gets to make movies and play games. That's the life."

Years later, Bell found himself sitting in an LA office while the legendary director gave him notes. Modelers around them were working on outrageously expensive workstations, painstakingly creating mockups for Jurassic Park sequels. But there were no dinosaurs on Bell's screen, not even a tiny Compsognathus or a dinky little Anchiornis. Bell was showing Spielberg a cutscene packed with hellish creatures, occultish symbols, and the tastefully wood-panelled walls of a sprawling gothic manor.

That's because Bell wasn't part of DreamWorks Pictures, Spielberg's movie studio, but DreamWorks Interactive, the game development studio Spielberg founded in 1995. He was the producer on the small team making Clive Barker's Undying, a first-person horror shooter made in collaboration with the author who created Hellraiser and Candyman.

Last month Clive Barker's Undying celebrated its 25th anniversary and while its makers would be the first to say it wasn't a shooter that changed the direction of the games industry, they will tell you that the project was a true labour of love.

They will also tell you that Clive Barker was really quite insistent that they make protagonist Patrick Galloway more fuckable.

While Resident Evil Requiem's been hoovering up most of the Resi attention as of late, Capcom have managed to drag the Resident Evil 4 Remake back into the headlines. The game's just had Enigma DRM quietly pulled from it, following a recent swap to that software from Devuvo DRM which reportedly had an impact on how well the Resi 4 Remake ran.

unity assets china

On March 31, 2026, assets from the Great China Region (including Hong Kong and Macau) will no longer be available for purchase on the Unity Global Asset Store. According to a staff post on the discussion boards, this is due to "updated regional licensing, distribution, and compliance requirements."

If you're not sure whether an asset you bought is from the Greater China Region, you can check this list. Unity users with affected assets should have also received an e-mail about it. As a note, you'll not be able to buy them, but if you have the assets in your My Assets list before March 31, 2026, you'll still be able to use them after that date. The publishers won't be able to update or support them anymore, though. Unity will also offer refunds on these assets if you purchased them within the last six months.

This appears to be a separation between the global market and the Chinese one. If you're using Unity and you're based in the Greater China Region, you won't be able to access the Global Unity Asset Store after March 31, 2026. Like those outside the region, you can still download and use assets before that date.

The separation between the Unity Global Asset Store and China's will go into effect on March 31, 2026.

6 tanglewood drive map entrance front door in phasmophobia

The very first map you gain access to in Phasmophobia is 6 Tanglewood Drive, and following the March 3, 2026, update, this iconic location received a massive rework. The overall layout remains the same, but there are still plenty of changes to get used to.

Getting familiar with new and reworked maps takes some time, but it's essential if you want to find success in your hunts. To ensure you're ready to get investigating, here's a guide to everything you need to know about the reworked 6 Tanglewood Drive map in Phasmophobia.

6 Tanglewood Drive is a simple one-story home with a decently small basement. The overall layout of this location has remained the same since Phasmophobia first launched, but with the March 3, 2026, rework, it received a bit of a touch-up with some new features to add fresh furniture, interactions, and small layout tweaks. The overall goal of this redesign was to make this location feel more unique and detailed.

If you knew the map before the rework, you'll still have a fairly easy time getting around. If you didn't, it's a great beginner-friendly location to start off at. Regardless of whether you're a beginner or a pro, there's a lot to learn about this home, so here's a full breakdown of what you need to know about it.

6 Tanglewood Drive map in Phasmophobia

Almost all of the rooms you can explore around 6 Tanglewood Drive are found on the main floor, with the exception of the single, open room down in the basement. In total, there are 12 rooms to investigate, making this one of the smallest locations available to you.

  • There are two bedrooms, including the children's bedroom near the front of the house and the master bedroom close to the living room.
  • This home has two bathrooms, one of which can be found in the hallway near the entrance, and the other, which is attached to the master bedroom.
  • The front corner room used to be a bedroom, but was transformed into a crafts and hobby room in the rework.
  • The main hallway, living room, dining room, and kitchen are all attached with an open floor plan.
  • There are stairs leading down to the basement between the living room and dining room.
  • The small laundry room just off the living room area leads into the garage.
  • The back patio area can be viewed from the dining room, but the door doesn't open, which means only the front entrance can be used to exit outside.

  • Summoning Circle: Drawn on the ground in the basement a few feet away from the Ouija Board.

  • A train set can be found in the basement. There are buttons near the end of it that can be interacted with to turn it on and otherwise control different parts of this set.

All rat locations in World of Warcraft

The Glyph Hunter achievement in World of Warcraft Midnight is one of the harder ones to complete, and you'll need to find all Skyriding Glyphs spread across different regions.

If you manage to complete the achievement, you'll get the Crimson Draughthaul mount. This guide will make your life easier by listing all known locations.

How to find all Skyriding Glyphs in World of Warcraft Midnight

The Skyriding Glyph locations are spread across all four regions, and we begin with Eversong Woods.

The glyphs in Eversong Woods are arguably the easiest ones to find. Apart from the one in Silvermoon City, all are in the interiors. I have marked them on the image above, and you can find the coordinates below.

  • /way #2395 65.23 32.63 Brightwing Estate
  • /way #2395 33.45 65.27 Daggerspine Point
  • /way #2395 62.61 62.80 Dawnstar Spire
  • /way #2395 39.45 45.63 Sunsail Anchorage
  • /way #2393 48.35 6.64 The Shining Span
  • /way #2395 52.49 67.62 Tranquillien

  • /way #2395 43.19 46.42 Fairbreeze Village
  • /way #2395 39.96 59.63 Goldenmist Village

Harandar

Some of the glyphs in Harandar are easy to find, but a few are extremely tricky. They're either hidden or in elevated areas that are too high to reach. Compared to Eversong Woods, they're well spread out across the entire region, barring the cave.

  • /way #2413 73.08 25.89 Roots of Nordrassil
  • /way #2413 26.53 61.39 Roots of Shaldrassil
  • /way #2413 54.74 35.35 Blooming Lattice
  • /way #2413 60.24 44.41 Blossoming Terrace
  • /way #2413 44.56 62.86 Fungara Village
  • /way #2413 61.86 67.50 Rift of Aln
  • /way #2413 69.36 45.84 Roots of Amirdrassil
  • /way #2413 34.58 23.13 Roots of Teldrassil

Zul'Aman

Most of the glyphs in Zul'Aman are easy, but there's one exception. One of them is located in the Amani Pass (from where you enter the region). The rest are all straightforward if you follow the image above and keep track of the coordinates below.

  • /way #2395 63.78 81.85 Amani Pass
  • /way #2437 30.45 84.72 Nalorakk's Prowl
  • /way #2437 19.22 70.74 Revantusk Sedge
  • /way #2437 51.49 23.56 Temple of Jan'alai
  • /way #2437 39.54 19.72 Witherbark Bluffs
  • /way #2437 27.91 28.63 Zeb'Alar Lumberyard
  • /way #2437 42.94 34.36 Shadebasin Watch
  • /way #2437 42.75 80.19 Spiritpaw Burrow
  • /way #2437 46.69 82.23 Solemn Valley
  • /way #2437 53.21 54.50 Strait of Hexx'alor
  • /way #2437 53.61 80.39 Temple of Akil'zon

Voidstorm

There are two locations that are hard to find: The Molt and the Master's Perch. The former is extremely low, while the latter is located on the highest accessible rock in the middle of the map.

Thankfully, the remaining locations are relatively easier to find.

  • /way #2405 39.90 70.98 The Bladeburrows
  • /way #2405 49.25 87.48 The Gorging Pit
  • /way #2405 35.67 61.09 The Ingress
  • /way #2405 37.16 49.96 The Molt
  • /way #2405 51.32 62.77 The Voidspire
  • /way #2405 38.91 76.11 Ethereum Refinery
  • /way #2405 54.95 45.54 Gnawing Reach
  • /way #2444 36.28 45.01 Hanaar Outpost
  • /way #2405 45.29 52.27 Master's Perch
  • /way #2405 65.08 71.93 Obscurion Citadel
  • /way #2405 36.08 37.30 Shadowguard Point

how to get all sub abilities in bizzare lineage like the ripple, vampire and cyborg

I'll guide you on how to get all Sub Abilities in Bizzare Lineage like The Ripple/Hamon, Vampire or Half Human Half Machine (Cyborg). You'll also find tips for each segment of the quest like how to find Night Vampires for Ripple or civilians for Vampire. Here's how to get all Sub Abilities in Bizzare Lineage.

How to Get Ripple in Bizzare Lineage

Image by Destructoid

To get The Ripple or Hamon take any bus stop and go to Bus Station 13 then look around for sunflowers and go to the bridge with sunflowers to find the Ancient Ghost NPC. Accept his quest for The Ripple/Hamon sub ability where you'll get Ripple moves after certain parts of the quest. The most tedious part of the quest is the first one which is finding Night Vampires that usually spawn at night so here's where they spawn:

  • Bus Station 1: Go here and head toward the cafe left of the Kira raid until you see the sunflower then head left of the sunflower toward some trees past Thug enemies - Night Vampires spawn there.
  • Bus Station 2: You can find some in front of the Gym's second exit/in front of the Raid Chumbo NPC.
  • Bus Station 11: Go to George NPC and a bunch can spawn here.
  • PVE Quest: They can also spawn via the PVE quest board though it takes time.
  • Private Server: I recommend farming them via a private server but it can be done in publics as well if you get lucky with the spawns and no one defeats them before you.

After Night Vampires, here's the rest of the questline tasks:

  1. You'll need to complete a World Event which is most easily done by going to Bus Stop 1 where WEs spawn every 30 minutes.
  2. Then you'll talk to Ancient Ghost and fight him as a mini boss.
  3. Afterwards you'll have to do 2 1v1s via the PVP board (If you're not good at PVP ask the opposing player to trade kills for the quest).
  4. Now you'll go back to Hamon/Ancient Ghost and fight him again.
  5. Then you'll have to defeat The Self which you can access by going to the Gym at Bus Stop 2, going in and interacting with a Yoga Mat to meditate and fight a mini-boss version of yourself.
  6. After turning in that part of the quest it's time to fight Dio in the Dio Raid which you can reach via Bus Stop 18 - Once there, go through the gate into the Graveyard and make a left before reaching the big castle which leads you through a cave and into an area where you'll make a right to the smaller castle where you'll reach the Dio Raid NPC inside (Watch out of Dio's hitscan attacks which you can dodge by jumping and moving).
  7. Lastly, after Dio, return to Ancient Ghost and ask to fight him one last time to get the final move of Ripple thus completing the Hamon quest.

How to Get Vampire in Bizzare Lineage

  • how to get vampire in bizzare lineage
  • how to find civilians for the vampire questline in bizzare lineage

To get the Vampire sub ability moves you have to both get the Stone Mask and use it to become a vampire and then do the Elder Vampire quests for all moves. Here's a step-by-step guide:

  1. You can get the Stone Mask from the shop or as a random drop from chests.
  2. After you use it to become a vampire we need to go to the Elder Vampire for the Vampire sub ability questline to unlock all moves.
  3. Go to any bus stop and then to Bus Station 18.
  4. Once there, enter the gate into the Graveyard.
  5. Head straight forward toward the large castle but make a left once you see a cave opening.
  6. Go through the cave and then make a right toward a smaller castle and go inside.
  7. You'll find the Elder Vampire NPC inside the castle to the left past the entrance.

Accept the quest from the Elder Vampire and here are some general tips for the questline:

  • You can get Bones/Skulls/Coins for the quest via chests which you can farm in Raids with the easiest one being the Avdol Raid that you can reach via Bus Stop 14 and then just going behind the bus stop across the sea to the Avdol Raid NPC (You need to have all Bones/Skulls/Coins before turning the quest in).
  • For the World Event just go to Bus Stop 1 where the World Event spawns every 30 minutes.
  • For the Hamon Apprentice and Hamon Master quest go to Bus Stop 17 and you can find the Masters right there and the Apprentices a bit farther from the stop toward the graveyard/bus stop 18.
  • Civilians spawn at Bus Stop 1 walking around that area near the Kira Raid and make sure to defeat the Delinquents/Thugs to ensure Civilians respawn (I hear they spawn near Koichi as well and in general I saw them walking randomly around town)
  • For the Jotaro Raid, go to Bus Stop 2 and go left past the Jotaro NPC around the gym building on the left side where you can find the Jotaro Raid NPC.
  • Finish all of these quests and you'll unlock all Vampire sub ability moves.

How to Get Half Human Half Machine in Bizzare Lineage (Cyborg)

To get Half Human Half Machine or Cyborg in Bizzare Lineage you'll need to:

  • Go to Bus Stop 3.
  • Turn toward the stone wall dojo and go past the dojo to the Cyborg NPC leaning on the wall.
  • Talk to Cyborg/Rudol Von Stroheim and accept the questline for the Cyborg sub ability.
  • Finish all the quest steps to unlock all the Cyborg moves of which there are 3.
  • For tips check out the steps above for the other sub-abilities since they're pretty similar with specific items from chests, World Events at Bus Stop 1, Raids and a standard bandit beater/quest tracker to-do list.

Bizzare Lineage Sub Ability FAQ

What are the passives of each Sub Ability in Bizzare Lineage?

Vampire: All of your moves heal you and you gain a red meter that, when full, will regenerate your HP.
The Ripple: Gives slight passive regeneration and causes all your Ripple moves to deal bonus damage to players with the Vampires sub.
HHHM: Increases defense by 15% reducing incoming damage and deal more damage to Vampires with HHHM moves.

Can you combine Sub Abilities with Fighting Styles and Stands?

Yes, you can have a Sub, a Style and a Stand at the same time and use them, but you can have only one of each. That said, you can switch subs and styles at their respective NPCs whenever you want.

How to find the Night Vampires for the Ripple quest in Bizzare Lineage?

You can find them at Bus Station 1 by heading toward the cafe left of the Kira raid until you see the sunflower then head left of the sunflower toward some trees past Thug enemies. Also check in front of the Jotaro Raid NPC at left side of the Gym at Bus Station 2 and at Bus Station 11 near the George NPC. Plus, PVE Quests can spawn Night Vampires as well.

Where are the civilians for the Vampire quest in Bizzare Lineage?

Civilians spawn at Bus Stop 1 walking around that area near the Kira Raid and make sure to defeat the Delinquents/Thugs to ensure Civilians respawn.

What is the best Sub Ability in Bizzare Lineage?

The Ripple/Hamon has the best moves for stunning and combos with Vampire coming in as a close second.

That's it for my guide on how to find all Sub Abilities in Bizzare Lineage which are The Ripple, Vampire and Cyborg (Half Human Half Machine). Check out how to evolve stands for more guides.

Holding a lighter and standing by a train set in basement in phasmophobia

The 6 Tanglewood Drive map rework has arrived, officially renovating one of Phasmophobia's most iconic locations. If you're eager to start exploring, you'll want to know everything about this update.

All the new content featured in this update wasn't completely revealed by the devs, as tends to be the case with most updates, so you may be unsure what to look for. To ensure you don't miss out on any of the exciting additions and changes, here are all of the new features in Phasmophobia's 6 Tanglewood Drive rework update.

Phasmophobia 6 Tanglewood Drive rework update patch notes

As the name of this update hints, most of the 6 Tanglewood Drive renovation update is focused on giving this beloved map a makeover. All of the new content you can uncover is tied to this location, so here's a breakdown of everything included in this update.

  • Reworked the overall look and feel of the 6 Tanglewood Drive map. All rooms around this location have new furniture and decorations, making them feel a lot more detailed and unique.
  • The map layout is mostly the same. Although 6 Tanglewood Drive has plenty of fresh furniture, the overall layout of this location is nearly identical to what it was before. The only major difference is the kitchen area, which is a bit more closed off, so you can't loop around it like before. Otherwise, the map layout changes are simply small bumpouts and tweaks here and there.
  • New train set in the basement. A shiny new train set can be found in the basement at this location, and it's fully interactive. You can toggle the switches nearby to cause a variety of effects.
  • Modified Cursed Possession locations at 6 Tanglewood Drive. The spots you can venture to around the map to find the seven Cursed Objects that may spawn at this spot have been adjusted. A couple of them are in similar spots or close to where they previously were, but for the most part, they've been drastically moved to fit the new layout.
  • Updated room themes. Some of the rooms you can explore around this location have been rethemed, although their overall shape and layout remain mostly the same. This includes what was previously a bedroom near the front of the house, which is now a craft and hobby room, what was previously a nursery being turned into an older child's room, and what was previously a cluttered basement, now becoming a dedicated train set spot.
  • New interactions and sounds. Plenty of fresh and updated items can be found around this map, with loads of new sounds that may give you a scare to go with them. The ghost can activate a drill in the garage, cause the dryer to make an incessant beeping noise, set off a record player, and so much more.
  • New challenge. On the event board, you can now find and participate in the Entangled Terror challenge. This trial asks you to successfully finish 50 contracts on the 6 Tanglewood Drive map. This is a permanent challenge, not a weekly challenge, so you have as long as you need to tackle it.
  • Updated map image. Since this location has been reworked, so has the map for it, which you can check out in the van. It's been updated like all newer maps, which means it actually shows the furniture in each room to help you more easily identify and distinguish between different areas.

If you're looking for some tasks to tackle while exploring this update, there are plenty to choose from. You might try working on capturing unique evidence around this location, checking off some hidden achievements while you investigate, and testing your luck by using the Music Box.

On March 3, 2026, 6 Tanglewood Drive's map rework was released in Phasmophobia, giving it a fresh coat of paint, plenty of new furnishings, and some subtle layout adjustments. Along with this, the locations of all Cursed Possessions at 6 Tanglewood Drive shifted around.

Although Cursed Items are extremely fangrous and deadly, they're also immensely useful and fun, so knowing where to find them just in case an opportunity arises is crucial. If you're eager to test them out around this map, here are all Cursed Possession locations around the 6 Tanglewood Drive rework in Phasmophobia.

All Phasmophobia 6 Tanglewood Drive Cursed Item locations

  • All cursed objects on 6 tanglewood drive main floor marked on map in phasmophobia
  • All cursed objects in 6 tanglewood drive basement marked on map in phasmophobia

There are seven Cursed Possessions that can spawn around 6 Tanglewood Drive. In the vast majority of contracts, only one of these items will be chosen, but the best way to determine which one is available to use is to check all the potential spawn spots, as each one can only appear in one location.

  • Monkey Paw: Inside the garage.
  • Tarot Cards: In the living room.
  • Voodoo Doll: Inside the children's bedroom.
  • Summoning Circle: On the ground in the basement.
  • Haunted Mirror: Hanging on the wall outside the master bedroom.
  • Music Box: Inside the closet in the master bedroom.
  • Ouija Board: In the basement.

If you play a weekly challenge mode or create your own custom match, you may find more than one Cursed Item on the map, as this modifier may change in either type of round. For all standard matches, though, only one will ever be available.

6 Tanglewood Drive Monkey Paw location

The Monkey Paw can be found sitting on top of some gardening supplies in the garage. To find this room, enter the house, walk down the main hallway, and make a right. Just after you turn right, make another sharp right to walk through the door located there.

You're now in the laundry room, so head through the door at the other end of it to access the garage. Inside, head left over to the white plastic chairs next to the stacked bags of soil and garden pots. Look on top of the green and yellow bag of soil to find the Monkey Paw sitting next to a singular gardening glove.

6 Tanglewood Drive Tarot Cards location

You can find the Tarot Cards sitting on an end table in the living room. They're a bit close to where they would previously spawn, as they also used to pop up in this room on a table, but since the entire area has been refurnished and rearranged, they're not quite in the same exact spot.

To find the cards, head into the home and walk straight through the main hallway. At the end, continue straight to enter the cozy living room. Walk around the coffee table in the middle, past the brown leather couch up against the wall, and over to the pink lamp. Look down at the table right in front of it to spot the Tarot Cards next to the home phone.

6 Tanglewood Drive Voodoo Doll location

The Voodoo Doll can be found in the children's bedroom, which used to be the nursery prior to the rework. To find and access this room, enter the house, walk forward a few feet, then make a left into the small hallway. As soon as you enter it, make a sharp right and head over to the door at the end of the hallway.

Once you reach the door, head inside to find Nancy's room. Walk over to the big brown bear plushie in the right corner and look down in front of it to spot the Voodoo Doll sitting close by.

6 Tanglewood Drive Summoning Circle location

You can find the Summoning Circle drawn on the ground in the basement. Enter the house, walk all the way down the main hallway, make a right, then make a left before reaching the kitchen and dining area. Head through the door you find here to access the basement.

Make your way down the steps to enter the room, then turn right. Proceed past the train set to the very back part of the room. Then, look down near the back right corner to find the Summoning Circle.

6 Tanglewood Drive Haunted Mirror location

The Haunted Mirror can be found on the wall right outside the door that leads into the master bedroom. This Cursed Object didn't move locations from where it was prior to the rework, so if you recall where it was before, you'll have no problem tracking it down now.

To find it, enter the home, then walk straight down the main hallway. Stop right before you reach the living room area, at which point you need to make a sharp left. The Haunted Mirror will be hanging up on the wall right in front of you, just outside the door.

6 Tanglewood Drive Music Box location

You can find the Music Box sitting on a dresser in the master bedroom closet. Enter the map and walk straight through the main hallway, stopping just before you reach the living room. Turn left, then make a right to head through the door that leads into the master bedroom.

Once you're inside, walk straight over to the door near the right corner of the room. Proceed through it to enter the master bedroom closet. Look on top of the dresser near the back of the room to find the small Music Box sitting at the very edge of the dresser, right next to the black safe on top of it.

6 Tanglewood Drive Ouija Board location

The Ouija Board is tucked away down in the basement. To find this room, enter the house, walk down to the end of the hallway, make a right, then make a sharp left to head through the door located just before the kitchen and dining area.

Go down the stairs to enter the basement area. At the bottom, turn right and walk past the train set to the very back end of the room. Crouch down and look left to spot the Ouija Board sitting on a low shelf beneath a table just a few feet away from where the Summoning Circle spawns.

Haranir in WoW Midnight

World of Warcraft Midnight is now live, and you can enjoy all the new content by playing with the Haranir allied race.

However, gaining access to the new race isn't as easy as simply picking it from the main menu. You'll need to complete the Harandar campaign, which also completes the Allied Race: Haranir. This will help you to create your new Haranir character.

How to get the Haranir race in WoW Midnight

The first step is to start the Midnight expansion and complete all the introductory quests. If you have completed this and the following steps in early access, then you'll save a lot of time. Once the starting quests are done, go to Harandar and proceed along the main storyline.

  • Load the game and finish the first quest in the Midnight expansion.
  • Keep playing until you reach the Paved in Ash quest. This unlocks the Echoes of Midnight achievement.
  • From then on, your only priority is the main campaign.

Your main focus at every step will be the main quests, and this continues until you get the One Does Not Simply Walk Into Harandar achievement.

Then, use the portal to leave and go to Silvermoon to speak with Elder Hagar (36.48 68.57). Elder Hagar stands next to the portal, so she is easy to find.

You'll receive a quest titled The War Beyond the Roots. Return to Lor'themar Theron and finish the quest. This will also complete the Allied Race: Haranir achievement, unlock the race, and reward you with a new mount in the form of the Ivory Grimlynx.

Based on how easily you can complete the tasks, it should take you a few hours.

Haranir abilities in World of Warcraft Midnight

Here's an overview of all Haranir abilities in the game.

Ability How it Works
Rootwalking Perform a dance to teleport to the Cradle. You can cast this spell near a world tree's roots to travel over there within Harandar.
Thorn Bloom Instruct thorns to damage up to eight enemies and heal up to eight allies within 10 yards of the specified area.
One With Nature Raise Herbalism skill by 5 and Finesse by 10. Get higher chances of gathering materials due to increased Finesse.
Lash Out Raises critical strike damage by 1% and critical strike healing by 1%
Subterranean Predator Raise XP gains by 10% for killing Aberrations, Beasts, and Elementals. Get 1% increased damage to Aberrations, Beasts, and Elementals.

Bizzare Lineage Fighting Style FAQ

Where are all the fighting style coaches in Bizzare Lineage?

The Karate NPC is at Bus Stop 3, the Boxing NPC in the Gym at Bus Stop 2 and the Kendo NPC in the market at Bus Stop 15.

What is the best fighting style in Bizzare Lineage?

Karate has the best combo potential due to its great combo extenders. Kendo and Boxing are slightly weaker but have their own strengths like Kendo's guardbreak moves and Boxing's counter.

Can fighting styles be combined withs stands?

Yes, you can have both a stand and a fighting style since fighting styles are just moves that can be placed on your numerical keys. I recommend combining Anubis with Kendo since they both scale with the weapon stat.

That's it for my guide on how to get all fighting styles in Bizzare Lineage which are Kendo, Boxing and Karate. Check out how to get C-Moon and Made in Heaven evolution stands for more guides.
