The Johto Event Has Been the Best of These Region-based Pokemon GO Events

The last few weeks, we’ve been having run-up events in Pokemon GO. There’s going to be a massive Kanto event in February, and before then, we’ve been celebrating the other regions. These events though have been very hit and miss. Thankfully, the Johto event has probably been the kindest of them all. These events have all been very similar, You have a bunch of Pokemon you need to collect, as well as a new shiny and featured raids and spawns. But these events have not been particularly equal. The Sinnoh and Unova Events were mediocre at best. We’ve been going… [Continue Reading]

WTF Even Are Phantoms

Sometimes I think that maybe I shouldn’t have taken such a long break from Minecraft. I stopped playing at around Minecraft 1.8, and now we’re on Minecraft 1.16. Although I did play Pixelmon for a bit, that wasn’t quite the same as modern Minecraft. Turns out, many, many mods and modded servers use 1.12. And a huge number of larger Minecraft servers actually remain in the past, stuck on 1.12. Namely because that version runs better with lots of concurrent players. Funnily enough, this also coincides with the combat changes in 1.9, but even by 1.8, I was kinda getting… [Continue Reading]

On Not Hunting Down My Last Few Warframe Achievements

I’ve never really been a fan of hunting down achievements. Most games generally have one or two awkward achievements that take too much effort to get. And I’m a super impatient person. Heck, the ONLY game I have 100% achievements on is Skyrim, and I certainly haven’t done that on the newer 64bit version. Once is enough, thanks. But weirdly enough, I’m actually missing a large chunk of Warframe achievements. Sure, I have the True Master achievement, but there are plenty I don’t have. Some of these are quite a pain in the butt, but others I don’t have because… [Continue Reading]

Sneasel Research Day

I honestly think these Pokemon GO research days are improving. Research days were originally a massive slog, which made people run around town for little reward. However, with each new research day, they seem to be improving on the formula. Sneasel Research Day, in my opinion, is one of the better ones yet. And of course, it can be played from now. Great for multiple reasons, mostly because we’ve had torrential downpours all day. Sneasel is a really good choice for a Pokemon. We’ve got a really strong ice type and a good contender when it comes to dark types.… [Continue Reading]

5 Other Cool Warframe Melee Weapons You Should Try

There are tons of cool weapons in Warframe, but none are as varied as melee weapons. From massive swords to petite daggers, there’s something for everyone. But even among melee weapons, there are plenty of even cooler ones. Melee gimmicks that help a weapon stand out from the crowd. Here are 5 other cool melee weapons you should try in Warframe. Vitrica The Vitrica is a badass glass sword, once wielded by an ancient Orokin bastard. After defeating said Orokin bastard in the Weave, the Cephalon version of the internet, you obtain the blueprint for this cool weapon. While it… [Continue Reading]

Despawning Pokemon and Useless Pokemon Radars

Just now, I managed to catch a wild 100% Beldum. The only reason I saw it was because of GPS drift. Due to brief inaccuracies, my character in Pokemon GO wandered slightly to the south, revealing a handful of Pokemon I can’t normally see. Among these was the 100% Beldum in question, which I immediately caught because, hey, wild Beldum. Unfortunately, in the 60 seconds it took for me to 1. tell my brother it was there, 2. grab my facemask and 3. head outside to grab it for him and his baby account… Well, it despawned. I basically saved… [Continue Reading]

Ranking Exalted Weapons – Warframe’s Best and Worst Exalted Weaponry

Exalted weapons are awesome. The ability to suddenly summon a weapon of death out of thin air is just so cool. Even if you’re already armed with an explosive bow, the badassery of summoning another bow is too cool to pass up. But there are lots of exalted weapons, and they’re all definitely not equal. In today’s article, I’m going to rank all twelve exalted weapons. Note: this is mostly based on personal opinion. You can get HUGE damage numbers on all of these. In fact, properly modded, these are all insane. But I like to consider usability and coolness… [Continue Reading]

The Importance of Ranking Up Serration and Hornet Strike and why you are probably dealing no damage in Warframe

The other day, I was browsing through Region Chat when I saw a message. Someone wanted help with a particular mission. I looked up the mission in question, Carpo on Jupiter. At first, I though it was either the spy or rescue missions. Jupiter’s new-ness makes it so these missions are harder than they should be compared to previous planets. But no, Carpo is an exterminate. Of course, I offered to help. This was a MR5 Rhino after all, and Jupiter is a hard planet. After we finished the mission, I asked him to show me his mod config for… [Continue Reading]

A Mareep Incense Event

Incense events are weird. All the spawns around you stay the same. In fact, the only difference is that Incense spawns different Pokemon, sometimes changing what spawns based on what time it is. There’s no research to go alongside the incense, it’s just throw the incense on and hope you catch a shiny. This Mareep event is no different. In this event, we get electric spawns and dragon spawns. Because Mareep’s final evolution, Ampharos, has appeared in Mega Raids. And Mega Ampharos is an electric/dragon type. As part of this Incense event, you can evolve a Flaafy into an Ampharos… [Continue Reading]

WTF Even is a Ghast?

So, the Minecraft Nether update was pretty awesome. What was once an otherwise really boring hell hole is now a flourishing hellscape. We got a bunch of new biomes, new mobs and all sorts! In fact, the modern Nether is so cool that you can very nearly survive completely in it. There are now places to obtain cobble and wood-like items, allowing one to survive nearly indefinitely in the Nether. On top of that, we got some absolutely gorgeous building blocks and light sources, which Medicinal Warlock talked about last August. But there’s something about the Nether that still feels… [Continue Reading]
