My Top 3 Elden Ring Boss Fights (SPOILERS)
Elden Ring is a game that has no shortage of boss fights with about 120 bosses in the whole game! Most of them are not required to complete the main story but if you want to get certain weapons, spells, remembrances, and other gear then it is recommended that you fight them. Some of the bosses are great, they are fast-paced, they are challenging, and knowing the backstory of the boss really does just get your blood pumping. So the way I am going to judge the boss fights are by: 1) how challenging it was, 2) how dynamic the fight was, and 3) the portrayal of each boss. Of course, this is just my opinion and not universal. That being said let's hop right into the list with my Top 3 Elden Ring Boss Fights.

Tarkov's Sniper Skill Should Level up Easier
Soft skills are really interesting in Tarkov. They provide a large variety of benefits for your PMC, whether that is more stamina, strength, perception, and alongside physical skills, there are plenty of skills related to mechanics and weapons. Every class of weapons has an associated soft skill that provides benefits when handling the weapon. But out of all the weapons to level up, bolt-action snipers are by far the worst to level up in the game.

The Paladin Spymaster
A figure slipped down the alleyways of Low Town, doubling back two and sometimes three times to make sure they weren't being followed before continuing on deeper into the crooked, leaning alleys. Rats scurried through midden heaps, and they passed occasional bodies sprawled in the garbage. Drunk or dead, the figure didn't pause to check as they made their way into the maze.

What Secrets Does Your Character Hide?
Grendal Bloodhand glanced around, ensuring no one was watching. When he was certain there were no prying eyes, he slipped his hand up behind the moulding near the fireplace in his kitchen, and pressed up on the loose stone. The hidden door in the wall opened, revealing the stairway down to the cellar. The orc slipped into the shadows, closing the door behind him as he found his way down the worn, stone steps. The door at the base was banded with iron and bore half a dozen locks, but instead of touching the trap activating mechanisms he pressed in on five, specific stones around the frame. The lock clicked open, and he stepped inside. Drawing a sparker from his belt, Grendal lit a lamp, then turned up the flame until it shone brightly.

The College of Graffiti — Dungeons and Dragons Homebrew
The College of Graffiti - Bard College While many bards tend towards artistic forms of self-expression, you specialise in one form above the rest — graffiti. Using your quick eyes and steady hands, you can throw up art faster than anyone, and your time out on the streets evading over-enthusiastic guards has trained you in the art of a quick escape. Many members of this College started out as simple graffiti artists, but have since discovered the inspiring potential of their works. Graffiti bards rarely meet, often having little more interaction than that of tutor and pupil, if that.

Tarkov is has some issues it needs to work on...
Even though we just talked recently about the wipe and the patch as a whole feeling pretty good, I guess there have been some lingering issues that have crept up in recent days. Some have been resolved (at least that’s what they say), and others are certainly more of a discussion with nuance. What I’m referring to are mainly the bug with players freezing in place, de-sync, and weapon balance. Those are the main points I wanted to tackle today.

Tarkov Patch 12.12.30 - How's it Going?
Well since Patch 12.12.30 has been out for almost 2 weeks, I figured I’d pop in and ask how everyone is doing, and how their wipe is going. So far, it’s been not bad for myself, currently level 22 or 23 I can’t remember. But for the most part still enjoying Tarkov, the wipe and the early game. Although to be fair, we are seeing the beginning of creeping into the mid game, but it’s still early enough. Anyways, so what’s new? Well, a decent amount of stuff. We got the Lighthouse expansion which I haven’t seen because I have neither attempted to go to it, nor have I even played Lighthouse once so far. Sooner or later, I will have to, but I’m trying to stay off that map as much as possible. Let’s just say I have some... grievances with the design of it and how the spawn's work. We got new guns which is always a good time. And the animation changes have been stellar so far. From a third person perspective, they look so good and smooth and as if someone who actually uses firearms daily knows how to run with them. Granted, it wasn’t horrible before, but this feels much more natural and looks good even out to longer distances. Which was my biggest complaint with the old animations; it just looked like you were kind of reloading a gun but not really when afar. But no, these are an awesome addition to the game. And the best part is that a lot of actions can now be performed while running and not stopping. Before, you had to start a reload animation or something before you clicked the sprint button. But now, you can just run and then do whatever it is you need to do. So, a pretty solid positive.

What I hope Arena inadvertently does for Tarkov
With the recent news that Arena mode for Tarkov is not only real, but being tested later on this year, I figured it would make sense to go over some hopes and anticipations for what Arena mode will bring and ultimately what kind of impact it will have on both the game and community as a whole. This is something a lot of us who have been playing for years now have known has been going on in the background. But to be honest, I really never saw it coming to fruition, simply due to the fact that Tarkov has evolved into something I don’t think BSG every really imagined would happen with their game. I’m sure they are happy so many people are playing and enjoying it, but the scale is something I have a strong suspicion they were never ready for. But they have made solid strides to rectify those kinds of issues and are on their way to releasing another sizable and monumentally game-changing patch for Tarkov with patch 12.12.xxx. There’s a lot to be excited for, but to me personally, the new and updated animations are incredible and will make life in the game so much better. Everyone will actually look like they are carrying guns and running around with them as they should. Instead of the strange hand-over-rifle pseudo reload animation they do currently (if you’ve ever looked at a faraway PMC through a scope you know exactly what I’m talking about). But there’s a ton of goodies coming that we also don’t even know about so get hype; it’s going to be a good patch.
