Call of Duty: Black Ops 7's January 13th Patch Notes optimized the performance of weapons like Sturmwolf 45 and AK-27, and also made changes to Prestige Attachments to ensure all weapons in the game are appealing to players.
If you’re unsure which to choose, this guide introduces the 5 most powerful weapons after the update, especially suitable for multiplayer modes, which will help you win quickly in the game.
M8A1 Marksman Rifle is a four-round burst designated marksman rifle. It’s arguably one of the best marksman rifles in BO7. Its advantage is its extremely high rate of fire, but its disadvantage is also obvious: its cooldown time is insufficient. Below are the necessary upgrades to further enhance this weapon’s performance.
It’s clear that the chosen attachments for this gun prioritize stability at medium range, while also making it more agile and maneuverable, bringing it closer to other assault rifles.
Because of its extremely high rate of fire, an extended magazine is essential, increasing ammo capacity without compromising shooting performance. A 40-round magazine is chosen here, which is sufficient in most situations. If you find this insufficient, you can choose a larger capacity magazine, but this will increase reload time.
Alternatively, you can choose Echo Reverse Flip Mag, which, although only holding 32 rounds, significantly speeds up reload time.
For the stock, we chose K&S Impact Stock. Using it with Stabilizer further improves vertical and horizontal recoil control, meaning you’ll have a truly recoil-free, accurate shooting experience.
In short, this is a fantastic setup that greatly increases the gun’s rate of fire and aiming speed, making it incredibly precise. However, if you don’t want to install Gunfighter to expand the magazine, you can choose to remove Magazine, Stock, and Fire Mod. It’s still a very powerful weapon, allowing you to easily defeat opponents at close to medium range.
Players can unlock AK27 at level 4 in CoD: Black Ops 7. It is a fully automatic assault rifle with very high damage, but it has high horizontal recoil and poor handling. Here is the modification list:
In the recent update, it is currently the number one assault rifle in the game. After modification, you will get an extremely fast assault rifle, and its high horizontal recoil is greatly improved.
To effectively reduce the annoying horizontal recoil, we paired it with a Lateral Precision Grip and a Buffer Spring. The former significantly reduces horizontal recoil, while the latter improves both vertical and horizontal recoil.
With the recoil problem solved, the next step is to consider how to improve AK27’s mobility. 14" Prism Light Barrel is the perfect tool to achieve this goal. It effectively increases aiming and firing speed, and even movement and jumping in the game don’t hinder its aiming speed, making it very practical in close-quarters combat.
If you only want 5 attachments, you can remove Opt, Magazine, and Stock. While the gun’s mobility will decrease, the recoil issue is still effectively resolved.
Sturmwolf 45 is a fully automatic submachine gun in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7. It was added after Reloaded update on January 8th. The game description states that it has extremely low recoil and high headshot damage, but poor handling, mobility, and range.
This is undoubtedly the strongest SMG configuration in CoD BO7, boasting excellent handling and recoil control while delivering extremely high damage.
Among these configurations, MFS Tigris .40 Cal Mag deserves special mention. It’s a Prestige Attachment, requiring you to upgrade STURMWOLF 45 to the highest level and unlock Prestige option.
MFS Tigris .40 Cal Mag significantly improves reload speed, headshot damage multiplier, damage radius, sprint fire rate, and aiming speed, making it a highly recommended choice.
For the stock, we choose LT1 Pride Stock, which reduces muzzle recoil and improves aiming movement speed, comprehensively enhancing the weapon’s handling.
This gun is virtually unmatched at close to medium range, easily overwhelming enemies. If you only want to keep five attachments, you can remove Stock, Laser, and Fire Mod. The other attachments must be kept to ensure the weapon’s usability.
Peacekeeper Mk1 is a fully automatic assault rifle with excellent mobility and handling, but it suffers from very high horizontal and vertical recoil, poor stability, and limited range. Here is the modification list:
This configuration performs exceptionally well in multiplayer mode, boasting extremely high rate of fire, aiming speed, movement speed, and controllable recoil. It’s ideal for close-to-mid-range combat, particularly hit-and-run tactics.
To improve recoil control, Sentry Pro Handstop and Buffer Spring are used to enhance horizontal recoil control and aiming lock-on stability, reducing aiming sway. For the rear grip, we chose EAM Blitzfire. Stock is used to improve movement speed while aiming and reduce muzzle recoil.
If you enjoy maps like Nuketown, this gun is definitely worth trying. It’s not recommended to remove any attachments; eight attachments are just right.
Ryden 45K is a fully automatic submachine gun. It has very high power in close-range combat and achieves a good balance between handling and recoil.
Ryden 45K received a buff in a recent update, with significant improvements. This setup further enhances its advantages, achieving a better balance between handling and recoil control, making it very easy to use.
Key attachments include VAS Interlock Stock and Recoil Sync Unit, both of which effectively reduce recoil in both directions, crucial for a submachine gun.
If you only want to use five attachments, you can remove Stock, Magazine, and Fire Mod. However, it’s recommended to use an eight-attachment configuration to ensure the simplest controls and achieve the fastest kill speed.
These are the five most popular weapons in the recent CoD: Black Ops 7 update. Each of these weapons is equipped with eight attachments for optimal performance. If you only use five attachments, be sure to equip the High Roller for extra killstreak bonuses. Happy gaming!
The recently released Dreadmyst features a strong role-playing game style, most notably with four distinct classes for players to choose from. While developers may intentionally average out the exploration efficiency of each class for the sake of overall game balance, ultimately, each class has its own specialty.
These specialties will cause certain classes to stand out more in the current Dreadmyst game content, which is what players often refer to as S-tier classes. To help new players more easily choose the strongest and most suitable class in the current version, this guide lists Best Class Tier List and gameplay tips here.
Because enemies in Dreadmyst’s open world are more vulnerable to elemental magic damage, Mage, which can use fire, ice, and arcane magic to deal considerable damage from a distance, has become the top class on this Tier List.
Furthermore, its powerful crowd control and area-of-effect damage capabilities allow it to effectively farm Dreadmyst gold and other loot. The only thing to be careful about is that this class’s defensive capabilities are not very strong.
So, in addition to preparing sufficiently powerful armor for it, you also need to master positioning, skill cooldown management, and spell combos to ensure that it is not under fatal threat. Meanwhile, in the process of creating a complete build, it is necessary to make reasonable combinations of skills from Arcane and Fire trees to achieve efficient skill rotation.
To achieve this effect, you may need to stack Intelligence and Willpower as much as possible to increase spell damage and mana sustain. Also, be careful not to run out of mana, as it can be used for emergency defense or to interrupt control skills to preserve your character’s health.
Next, we’ll introduce Paladin, who can use holy power to deal significant damage to enemies while simultaneously healing teammates. Compared to Mage, this class has stronger defensive capabilities, so its role in the team is to ensure continuous damage and provide a small amount of healing.
With the help of its equipped Swords, Axes, Maces, and Shields, Paladin possesses exceptional combat endurance, making it a perfect core member in numerous raids. As well as a high level of crowd control ability greatly facilitates the application of subsequent explosive damage to oneself and other team members.
At the same time, it also has area-of-effect damage skills such as Hammer of Judgment or Holy Smite, which can ensure that monsters deal damage to itself in the fight as much as possible without threatening other members of the team, thus providing opportunities for DPS to output more damage.
When playing as a Paladin in all encounters, whether you see them as a DPS or healer in the raid, you should focus on maximizing Strength to increase melee damage and Courage to enhance survivability. And when selecting suitable Dreadmyst Items in your build, try to choose those that can improve block rating, health, and defensive stats.
Like most RPGs, Ranger in Dreadmyst is designed as a highly mobile character who excels at using Bows and Daggers to deal ranged damage. Thanks to this, you can frequently employ kiting tactics throughout combat and use precise positioning to unleash maximum damage.
It is precisely because of these attributes that Ranger stands out among the optional PvP content in the game: using projectiles or arrows from a distance to slow down or poison enemies, and then using high movement speed to teleport to the enemy for the follow-up kill.
However, due to the long cooldowns of its core Vanish and Shadow Step skills, the skill rotation and active/passive skill triggering mechanisms of this class are not very friendly to players who are new to Dreadmyst, so many players cannot use it for effective escape and ambush.
But this shortcoming is not irreparable. As long as you focus on improving Agility attribute to increase attack speed, ranged damage, and evasion, you can significantly improve the survivability of this class. At the same time, when you need to use melee to deliver a one-hit kill, focus on Strength to enhance the damage effectiveness of the dagger.
Moreover, remember to make good use of kite tactics and leave an escape route or safe zone when the enemy approaches, just in case. And practice using the bow and arrow a lot to ensure you can get a precise headshot every time, which will give you extra single-target damage. Finally, daggers should only be used for fatal blows, not as conventional weapons.
The last one I want to introduce is Cleric class, which is set as a healer in Dreadmyst. Its damage output is relatively low, so it is classified as a B tier class here. However, this does not mean that it cannot use its expertise to provide a combat advantage in raids.
This class focuses on using divine magic to provide mana and health restoration, buff application, and debuff removal for every character in the team. Although healers primarily use magic, Cleric can also use shields and staves to inflict some magical damage on monsters, though not much, it is still essential.
To maximize the effectiveness of this class, you need to learn how to allocate resources reasonably to balance the ranged spell damage and melee critical strike damage in the entire team, ensuring that monsters are quickly killed with this relatively balanced damage combination, while dropping a lot of loot.
In addition, your positioning is also very important: try to stay behind the front line,which will make it easier for you to heal or buff your teammates, and also avoid being directly attacked by the enemy. Most importantly, when encountering low-level enemies, combine weapon attacks with spells to conserve mana for crucial moments.
The above summarizes the power levels of each class in Dreadmyst and provides tips for playing the game. In summary, choosing the right class will affect your solo combat ability, teamwork, and performance in both PvE and PvP. We hope you find the perfect character for you in this new RPG and progress smoothly through the game. Enjoy the game!
Path of Exile 2 patch 0.4.0 has recently started experiencing inflation, leading players to frantically seek ways to farm currency. This, coupled with the previous patch 0.4.0d which fixed a bug related to farming Fracturing Orbs, has forced players to look for alternative methods.
Therefore, players have to look for other ways to acquire currency, and Expedition Logbooks have become one of the most effective ways to convert in-game efforts into Divine Orbs.
Whether you want to farm Divine Orbs or simply find a reliable way to acquire in-game wealth, Expedition Logbooks are your best choice.
Expedition Logbooks are part of Expedition endgame mechanic in PoE 2. These Logbooks drop from exploration encounters and can be farmed during normal gameplay by triggering boss encounters or chest drops on the map.
Our primary purpose in using the logbooks is to collect Runic Splinters, which drop from chests you detonate during your adventures. Once you've accumulated enough fragments, you can directly exchange them for Divine Orbs.
Therefore, Expedition Logbooks aren't ordinary loot; they're valuable enough on their own, so we need to learn how to maximize their use to farm the precious currency we want.
Before understanding the actual farming process, let's talk about how to set up and formulate strategies to maximize our profits.
One of the key factors in improving yield is the properties of Expedition Logbooks, which significantly affect the number of Runic Splinters you harvest.
Here are some high-quality Implicit Modifier attributes to watch out for:
Avoid choosing any implicit modifiers related to monsters or monster-dropped artifacts, as these modifiers are useless for your fragment acquisition goal.
While you don't need these points to efficiently complete Expedition Logbooks, they do help increase the number of logbooks you can collect.
You can obtain these points by defeating Olroth, Origin of the Fall, a high-ranking boss associated with Expedition mechanic. You need to defeat him three times to unlock all the necessary Atlas Passive Points.
Use these points to help you collect more logbooks, and then repeatedly start Expeditions to farm more Runic Splinters.
Once you obtain an Expedition Logbook with good attributes, the farming process becomes relatively simple. Here are the actions you need to complete in Expedition Logbook quests:
After planning your quest route, your primary task in Expedition quests is to blow up chests containing Runic Splinters. You can use explosives to blast them open.
On average, each chest will drop 5 to 14 fragments, which will accumulate to a considerable amount over time.
If you can farm efficiently, each Expedition Logbook should yield 10 to 12 Divines, depending on the number of chests you open and the quality of Expedition Logbook's affixes.
The key to maximizing profits is minimizing the time spent farming each logbook. The more Expedition Logbooks you farm per hour, the more Divines you'll obtain. However, you need to find a balance between speed and thoroughness.
If you rush through a logbook, you might miss some chests or fragments that could boost your rewards. At the same time, spending too much time on any one Expedition Logbook will reduce your overall efficiency.
Therefore, you need to find that balance where you can maximize your chest farming without wasting too much time.
Of course, you can't just blindly farm a large number of Expedition Logbooks. You also need to master some techniques to improve your farming efficiency;
Once you've farmed enough Runic Splinters, you can exchange them for high-value equipment or weapons at Expedition NPC. Finally, you can exchange them for a considerable amount of Divine Orbs on the trading platform.
When trading on the platform, pay close attention to the price fluctuations of various items and try to list them when the price is highest. This will maximize your Divine earnings.
Overall, Expedition Logbooks are an excellent way to acquire Divine Orbs recently. With minimal preparation and without relying on a powerful build, you can consistently gain a large amount of PoE 2 currency by efficiently farming these logs.

Following the release of Arc Raiders' long-awaited January Update 1.11.0, which nerfed Kettle and Trigger 'Nade, two weapons capable of dealing extremely high damage, discussions within the community regarding currently available high-powered weapons have intensified.
In preparation for the major update that will be released soon, players are looking for a weapon that is both easy to obtain and has a powerful combat effect, which will be an important helper in completing all challenges and trials.
Thanks to this, this guide lists the weapon options you can try in January 2026, not only because the crafting materials and blueprints are very easy to find, but also because they are highly usable.
To ensure fairness, EZG.com will first introduce some criteria for selecting these best weapons. In general, the weapon must have a relatively high return on investment; for example, the reward of a weapon that is extremely difficult to obtain will certainly be greater than that of a free one.
Furthermore, since players in Arc Raiders nowadays have different preferences for game content, we will evaluate these weapons accordingly based on the needs of different exploration styles. Finally, here are the factors we considered when ranking the weapons currently in the game:
In addition to the factors mentioned above, we will also collect feedback from players in the community regarding specific weapons, since the ultimate users of these weapons are the players themselves. Now let's get into ARC Raiders January 2026 Weapon Tier List that this guide has been prepared for you!
In this tier, you'll find the most worthwhile weapon options to try in the current game content, each suited to a different playstyle.
First, let me introduce this free basic bolt-action rifle. Its heavy ammunition is extremely lethal against Arc enemies like The Queen, capable of accurate headshots and easy hits to weak points.
However, what truly impressed the judges at EZG.com was Ferro's extremely low production cost; both its Arc Raiders blueprints and the necessary materials were readily available.
Did Kettle appear in S tier of weapons surprise you? Don't be surprised, because the nerfs to it in January Update 1.11.0 mainly eliminated cheating by allowing some players to bypass its rate of fire limit using macros, rather than affecting the weapon's combat effectiveness.
Similarly, due to its extremely high aiming accuracy and high firepower output, the Kettle is also a suitable weapon for efficiently farming coins and experience points in various Arc bots. Meanwhile, its build cost is very low; it only requires selecting an accessory that significantly reduces recoil.
Compared to the two larger rifles, this compact pistol is more suitable for carrying around, and it performs very well in both PvE and PvE modes. Although many players criticize its ability to only fire single shots at enemies, its considerable damage output perfectly compensates for this shortcoming.
After testing, it was found that as long as you build a fairly complete structure around it, you can easily shatter the armor of Arc enemies, and even get headshots in PvP. Most importantly, Anvil has a long enough range to allow you to deal this effective damage from a safe distance.
In this tier, some weapons require time to find their blueprints, while others are only good for medium-level challenges due to their lower damage output. Overall, however, it's still a worthwhile Arc Raiders item option to try.
If you prefer the exhilarating thrill of close-quarters combat, then Stitcher is definitely worth a try. It allows you to tear enemies apart at close range with precise bursts of fire, enabling you to quickly complete levels and loot rewards.
However, due to its high recoil, Stitcher cannot be a common weapon for novice players. Only those players with superb recoil control and a wide variety of grips or stocks can effectively maximize its power.
Based on the data provided by the developers, Burletta seems like a perfect weapon: it is both offensive and defensive, has balanced performance, and a very good rate of fire, making it capable of completing most PvP missions.
However, it has a fatal flaw: insufficient damage output. It cannot penetrate the shields of Arc enemies, nor can it achieve a one-shot headshot kill. Therefore, players in the community often jokingly call it “beautiful trash.” It’s fine for everyday use, but it won’t let you survive in higher-difficulty conflicts.
The last A-tier weapon option available to you is Equalizer, crafted from loot obtained from encounters with The Queen. While it is effective at destroying enemy armor and has a long range, its effectiveness is completely disproportionate to how easy it was acquired.
Logically, a weapon rewarded by a boss should easily allow you to fight other real players of similar difficulty. However, Equalizer is different. Its extremely slow rate of fire makes it easy for your PvP opponents to dodge and pose a threat to you. So, you can try it if you only play PvE, but forget about PvP.
These are some of the weapon options available in Arc Raiders as of the release of January Update 1.11.0. With the end of Cold Snap, players are increasingly looking forward to the next major update that will bring more new game content. Let’s wait and see!
WoW TBC Classic Anniversary pre-patch went live on January 13th, bringing significant changes to the game, including the addition of Blood Elves and Draenei, a brand-new Jewelcrafting profession, and buffs or nerfs to some classes.
During this three-week transition period, you’ll need to do a lot to prepare for Dark Portal’s launch on February 5th. Regardless of your class, here’s a recommended activity list to help you quickly get up to speed with the new content.
Regarding why you should do these items, here’s some additional information.
Regarding the first item on the list, you can also level your character to 58 before WoW TBC Classic pre-patch goes live, but this requires a lot of gold. I only recommend this method if you have ample gold and want to skip the leveling process.
However you choose to level up, make sure your character reaches level 60 before TBC arrives. Many valuable activities and quests revolve around level 60 after the pre-patch opens; for example, the newly added Jewelcrafting is only unlocked at level 60.
In addition, ensure all your professions are fully upgraded. During the pre-patch, WoW added important and useful features/modes to each profession, including some good ways to make money.
Jewelcrafting is the most profitable profession. Currently, red, yellow, and blue gems are in high demand, and you can profit by reselling them; you can also mine and sell the raw gem materials. In short, farming some items beforehand will make the leveling process much easier.
If you plan to create entirely new characters like Blood Elves or Draenei and have decided which professions you want to learn, farm the necessary items as early as possible. Otherwise, prices will skyrocket later, and demand will be high. Upgrading your profession skills now will save you a lot of trouble.
It’s also recommended crafting a new set of gear for your new character every 5-6 levels. While this may seem expensive, it’s actually the most cost-effective and time-efficient path. Every stat increase from gear significantly impacts damage, healing, and survivability. This means you can kill monsters faster with less resource consumption. Regularly upgrading your gear also makes it easier to find groups, greatly aiding in dungeon leveling.
If you don’t have enough gold, prioritize acquiring weapons and then farm gear while queuing for dungeons to compensate. If you’re worried about long queue times, consider playing a Tank or Healer to speed up the queue.
Additionally, it’s worth noting that Riding is an essential skill in WoW TBC. Currently, a basic Riding costs 33 gold and 25 silver, while a mount costs 9 gold and 50 silver. Paladins/Warlocks and other classes can be purchased directly from trainers for 95 silver.
However, this only covers the basic Riding cost. Ourneyman Riding requires 700 gold, Expert Riding requires 900 gold, and the top-tier Artisan Riding requires 5200 gold. This means you’ll need a significant amount of gold to achieve decent riding skill, not to mention the later flying mechanics. In short, saving gold before the official release of TBC is always a good idea.
Additionally, during WoW TBC Classic Anniversary pre-patch, players can obtain High Chief’s Trinket through Winterspring questline. This Trinket isn’t difficult to acquire but is extremely powerful. If your early-game gear is lacking, High Chief’s Trinket is perfect, as it increases attack damage and healing.
The last item on the list is about Blasted Lands pre-patch event. This event allows you to complete numerous boss kills, resource trading, and other quests quickly acquiring transitional gear. However, you don’t need to do all the quests; just select those that are useful to you.
Overall, TBC Classic Anniversary pre-patch is not a period to rush blindly into leveling, but rather a critical preparation phase that rewards planning and efficiency. Players who take the time to stockpile gold, finalize professions, secure key gear upgrades, and familiarize themselves with new systems will enter Outland with a significant advantage over those who skip this stage.
Even small preparations - such as upgrading riding skills, crafting interim gear, or completing a few high-value questlines - can have a lasting impact on your leveling speed and overall experience once the Dark Portal opens.
The gap between a prepared character and an unprepared one becomes very apparent during the first few days of TBC, especially when competition for quests, dungeon groups, and resources is at its peak.
In short, treat the pre-patch as an investment. The effort you put in now will save you time, gold, and frustration later, allowing you to fully enjoy everything Burning Crusade has to offer from day one.
