Not to brag or anything but games in a game just suck (especially Qubed from GTA 4)

I have never done anything like this so I might miss a thing or two.

1. Gems

- Gems are really scarce (Not in DE), besides getting around 25 each update the limit of how much you can get a day is 30 by watching 10 ads, so an ads each equals 3 gems.

2. Weapons and equipments

- Weapons and equipments can be bought with coins or gems and some can only be bought with gems. The one with gems always has an enchantment (What is an enchantment will be discussed down below). It is recommended to buy the gem weapons and equipments when you reach the maximum level of 52.

3. Eclipse mode

- Eclipse mode is unlocked during Level 8. This mode makes the enemies much stronger and aggressive, in return you will be awarded with Shadows Orbs (don't worry, we'll discuss it in the next one). It is recommended to always keep this on if you wish to become better at the game. Fighting the bosses once again on eclipse will give you their weapon but it's recommended to get it on Level 52 due to it also requiring gems to upgrade it to the next level. (One of the golden rule of this subreddit)

4. Enchantments

- There are 3 types of enchantments. Simple, Medium and Mythical. And 3 types of Shadow Orbs. Green and Red orbs can be found in any battles (besides survival which only gives green one). The purple one can be found only from beating the bosses on Eclipse. Discussing each of the enchantments will take really long so I'll keep it simple. All the enchantments are randomized by a number, it indicates how frequently it will apply, the higher, the better. Since the game straight up explains how it generally works I'll skip to the Mythical one. Mythical enchantments can only be used if you have a full set (like Monk and Sentinel) and using it will not get rid of your simple or medium enchantments. For example if you have a Monk set and want to use another weapon on this set, you use this enchantment (It will become randomized if you have 2 or more full sets)

5. Upgrading equipments

- Upgrading equipments are unlocked after Level 3. There are 2 types of upgrade. one of them is upgrading the current level equipments to deal more damage or take less damage (can be done 3 times each level on each weapon and 4 times in act 7) and the other one being upgrading a weapon and equipments from a previous level to your current one (It will always cost more than buying a new one). It is recommended to upgrade the weapon you have twice and the armor and helmet once, if you have problems with this one, you can upgrade the helm and the armor twice. Magic and kunai are kind of irrelevant to upgrade most of the time so you can just ignore it and leave it as it but sometimes the Challange mode (It will look like a gate on the map) requires you to have the magic, kunai or, all of your equipment at your current level to progress (happens more than you think).

6. Challengers

- In each provinces/acts (Until Level 42) there will be exactly 7 challengers who will show up. The first one always shows up at Level 4 and for the rest they show up randomly from Level 2 to Level 5 of each provinces, each provinces/acts last for 6 Levels, for example act 2 will start from Level 7 and end at 12 so the challenger will show up around Level 8 to Level 11. When you beat them they will give you their weapon which is recommended since it has an enchantment, or if you lose you can fight them again using gems (if you lose once it's recommended decline and move on since they block progress until you beat them or decline). It is also recommended to gather up enough coins for each level to buy an armor and a helmet of the next level for this exact reason. After Level 43, there will be no challengers who will offer you their weapon.

Extras:

If you are unsure about how to progress. It usually goes like this. Buy a weapon, an armor and a helmet and upgrade them at least once. After, let's say if the 13th stage of the tournament and the challange says impossible after you upgrade what I mentioned, it's for the next level. To see it after act 2, you have to turn off eclipse temporarily.

I do not enjoy the fact that it's kinda forced, because everyone uses it here. Everyone I have seen has listening to politics on Facebook feed on max volume on a bus.

Whenever I try cry of fear or goldsrc or source games the audio is there for a minute and just gone. I found out you can actually switch the audio output but my laptop only has one output that I have to plug headphones and switch it back to the speakers to make it work, and you have to do that every time you want to play.

Browse local files option straight up does not work and properties takes so long to open up.

Ironically I think we might have gotten HL3 if valve stuck as a game developing company.
