Genshin Impact Fatui Electro Cicin Mage Boss Location

The Mist Grass is one of the most desired crafting items in all of Genshin Impact. However, it is extremely difficult to find those. In fact, you need to defeat particular bosses in Mondstadt to get your hands on some Mist Dust.

Defeating the Electro Cicin Mage Boss and her Electro Cicin summons is the easiest way to farm Mist Dust Pollen in the fantasy RPG by miHoYo, These Mist Dust Pollen can later be combined to form Mist Dust, which can then be used for upgrades and enchantments.

Mist Dust is used for the weapon ascensions of:

  • Debate Club
  • Dragon’s Bane
  • Fillet Blade
  • Halberd
  • Iron Sting
  • Messenger
  • Prototype Crescent
  • Prototype Malice
  • Prototype Rancour
  • Rainslasher
  • Twin Nephrite

Where to find the Fatui Electro Cicin Mage?

The Electro Cicin Mage is a level 10 boss with an ability to summon more enemies to aid her in combat. While the Electro Cicin Mage can occasionally be seen spawning at certain points of Mondstadt, players can choose to go to the southern part of the Mondstadt region around Springvale to have a better shot at finding her.

Alternatively, you can also use the ‘Bosses’ section of your journal and click on Fatui Electro Cicin Mage to navigate to her location.

You’ll find just one mage waiting for you, but she’ll spawn more Electro Cicin enemies who can be killed to get more Mist Grass Pollens.

FaZe wins IEM New York 2020 EU

Team Faze are the new champions of the IEM New York 2020 Europe by defeating Team OG 3-0 in a best of 5 series in the grand finals. 

The map veto began as Faze removed Overpass and OG banned Vertigo. Faze picked Mirage as their first pick and OG picked Inferno as theirs. Faze then again picked Dust 2 as the third map and Nuke was picked out to be played as the fourth map and Train was left over to be played as the final map of the series.

The first map of the series was Mirage and it was a very well contest between both the teams as we saw amazing counter strike being played by both the team with OG edging out 8-7 in their favor in the first half, Faze replied back in the second half and taking the scoreline 15-15.

The overtime went back and forth and in the end Faze finally came out to be the stronger team and won the map 22-20.

The second map was Inferno and Faze just went bizarre as they completely dominated OG in the entire map and by winning the half 12-3 in their favor, they did not give even a single chance to their opposite to comeback in this map and won the map 16-5. 

The final map of the series was Dust 2 where we eventually saw OG leading the scoreboard and winning the half 8-7. Although Faze wanted to finish the series and with the help of Nikola ‘NiKo’ Kovač they went on to win the map 16-11 and the series 3-0.

Genshin Impact Rust Bow Location – How to get the Rust Bow

Genshin Impact Rust Bow Location – How to get the Rust Bow

After titles like Fall Guys and Among Us, ‘Genshin Impact’ is the newest talk of the town. The Role-Playing Game by miHoYo features a vast open-world experience for the players to enjoy. While primarily a single-player game, Genshin Impact can also be played with a group of four people in co-op dungeons.

Weapons are the key to survival in Genshin Impact and they determine how effective your attacks are. Bows are one of the best weapons in the game useful for damaging enemies from far away. If you’re looking to pick up a bow, you’ll find a lot of options ahead of you. The 4-star Rust Bow is probably one of the finest choices you can pick in this class.

The Rust Bow has a base attack of 42, with its secondary stat as a base attack having a 9% damage. It has a Rapid Firing passive that increases the attack damage of normal attacks by a whopping 40% while decreasing the aimed shot damage by 10%.

The Rust Bow can be upgraded to increase its base stat as well as the attack damage bonus. The damage amplification is maxed at 80% with a 12% penalty in aimed shot damage.

There is no sure-shot method of obtaining the Rust Bow as of now, which means that you will have to rely on their luck to obtain it. Players have a 5.1% chance to get a 4-star weapon in a wish. Even if you do get a 4-star drop, the chances of obtaining the Rust Bow from the banner are also quite slim.

  • The Rust Bow is a 4-star bow which the lore of Genshin Impact suggests is so rusted – and powerful – that an average person wouldn’t be able to draw and fire it. This explains why dainty anime characters can rapid-fire their machine-guns style. It’s just that Genshin magic, I guess.
  • The Rust Bow has a base attack stat of 42, and its secondary stat is also attack – beginning at 9%. 
  • Its passive is Rapid Firing, which increases the attack damage of your normal attacks by 40% but decreases aimed shot damage by 10%. This is a curious and cool bonus, as aimed shots are most often used for elemental attacks, while there’s not an enormous incentive to use normal attacks with bow users – but with a bow like this, there’s a real incentive.
  • As you upgrade and ascend the rust, both its base stat and that normal attack damage bonus get buffed, with the latter topping out at an 80% increase in exchange for only a 12% aim shot damage debuff.

Rust is by no means the best bow in Genshin Impact, but it is a killer option – especially considering as a 4-star bow, it’s not as ridiculously rare as a 5-star option, as the below video from YouTuber Rayken showcases, using it as part of a god-like Fischl build.

How to get the Rust Bow

Right now, there’s no guaranteed Rust Bow drop within Genshin Impact. That’s important for you to know, as some guides out there suggest that there’s a Rust Bow location, which as far as we can see is false. As far as we’ve been able to see so far, there isn’t one. And you know what that means… it’s Gacha Wish time, baby!

As a four-star weapon, the Rust bow is actually a slightly more likely drop from Gacha wishes than most – but you’ll still have to get lucky in order to nab one:

  • As a base, you have a 5.1% chance to get a 4-star weapon in a wish. If you do get a 4-star draw, there’s no guarantee it’ll be the Rust – it could be any of the banners included 4-star weapons or characters.
  • The Rust Bow appears as a standard-probability drop in the ‘Wanderlust Invocation’ wish banner, which is a constant banner with no time limit. So that’s not going anywhere and is a constant opportunity to get this bow, at least for the foreseeable future.
  • The Rust Bow has an enhanced chance to drop as part of the limited ‘Ballad in Goblets’ banner – which is a great banner to pull on because it’s also home to Fischl and Venti, two top-tier arrow-slinging characters by our reckoning. This means you have a slightly greater chance of getting the Rust Bow here than on the other banner – but this banner is only available until October 18.
  • For the record, the Rust Bow does not have an increased drop rate on the ‘Epitome Invocation’ banner, the current weapon-focused banner at the time of writing, but it seems it can be a normal-probability drop.

Valorant no internet found – How to fix?

Ever since the release of Riot’s competitive shooter, it has been riddled with a variety of bugs. You might remember the days of Omen killing everyone in the game without taking a hint of damage, but the kind of bugs that annoy players more are the ones that don’t even let you launch Valorant.

The ‘connection error’ bug in Valorant has been prevalent for a while in Riot’s new title. The error, much like the ‘error code 0’, prevents you from launching the game or joining a match.

In case you’re having similar problems with the game, you’ll be pleased to know that the solution to this issue is quite simple. Here are some of the steps you can try to fix the problem:

RESTARTING ROUTER/MODEM

In case you haven’t already, this is something you must try before moving on to the next step. If the root of the problem lies in your internet connection, restarting your modem or router might just be enough to fix your ‘connection error’, but on the off chance it doesn’t, read on.

RELAUNCHING VANGUARD

The ‘connection error’ mostly occurs due to a problem caused by Vanguard, Riot’s anti-cheat engine which aims to keep cheaters at bay. Relaunching Vanguard may solve this problem. To do so, first, you’ll need to restart your computer. Vanguard will launch automatically at your next boot. Try launching Valorant again, if the problem persists, proceed to the next step.

REINSTALLING VANGUARD

If relaunching Vanguard doesn’t fix it, reinstalling it is your next step. A fresh install of the anti-cheat engine has a high chance of fixing your issue once and for all.

To uninstall Vanguard, right-click on the Vanguard icon at the bottom-right of your taskbar and click on uninstall. Once done, relaunch Valorant and Vanguard will automatically install itself once again. After a reboot, you should be good to go.

REINSTALLING VALORANT

This is your last resort if the problem keeps on repeating itself despite your most valiant efforts. Uninstall Valorant from the control panel, make sure Vanguard is uninstalled too, then download your new copy of Valorant from the official website.

We hope you found these tips helpful for fixing your ‘connection error’ in Valorant. Keep following TalkEsport for more tips, tricks, and news involving Riot’s FPS title Valorant.

New Among Us update Oct 2020 Patch Notes

A new update has been shipped to the beta branch of Among Us, and it includes changes that can make the gameplay more interesting as well as difficult for the crew members. While the update won’t be available to play in the current version of Among Us, players may choose to opt into the beta to test the features out.

Here are the changes in the new Among Us update:

1) The host can select a new setting which makes the players’ votes anonymous. This change will help the impostors avoid suspicion when they choose to not vote for each other.

2) The task where players have to connect the four wires has been made colorblind-friendly. Each wire now has a specific shape and can be connected to the other wire having the same shape.

3) The taskbar can now be set by the host to show up only during emergency meetings. It can even be set to not show up at all. This will make it significantly harder for crewmates to spot out impostors since keeping an eye at the taskbar was one of the easiest ways to identify impostors.


To opt into the beta version of the game, simply right-click ‘Among Us’ in your Steam Library and go to ‘Properties’. Once you’re there, click on the ‘Betas’ tab, and select ‘public-beta’ from the drop-down menu.

When does the new Valorant season start?

When does the new Valorant season start?

Riot has recently revealed the details to the much-anticipated Act 3 of their competitive shooter Valorant which is set to arrive in the next few days.

A number of new changes await fans in the next update, including a major, revamp of the competitive system, a new agent, an ice-themed map with the name of ‘Icebox’, a skin collection, and an upgraded Battle Pass.

WHAT’S NEW IN ACT 3?

COMPETITIVE CHANGES

The competitive game mode will undergo a number of changes most of which are aimed at improving the queues in the higher ranks.

1) The queue range for competitive matchmaking will be tightened from six tiers to three. This means that if you’re a Diamond 3 player, you’ll only be able to queue with players whose ranks range from Platinum 3 to Immortal 3. This change will hurt players who queue with friends having a large skill gap, but will result in a better matchmaking experience overall.

2) Players will be able to select their preferred servers before joining a queue. However, it can’t be guaranteed that players will always be matched in their preferred servers.

3) Immortal plus players’ ranks will be affected entirely based on their wins and losses instead of individual performance.

NEW AGENT

The next agent is an Australian named Skye. She has been voiced by a native Australian and packs a skillset filled with a utility that can easily turn the tides of a battle if used correctly. Her abilities include:

  • An AoE heal which can be used to heal her allies but not herself.
  • A drone that can be controlled remotely to gain vision and damage/stun enemies.
  • A bird that can be used to scout out areas and detonated at will to flash enemies looking at it.
  • An Ultimate which sends out three wolves to hunt down enemies, stunning them on impact.

Judging by her abilities, it’s obvious that Skye is set to be a support/initiator. All of her abilities excel in taking control of crucial parts of the maps and the AoE heal has a huge range.

Combine that with the controllable flashes and she can potentially be one of the best agents in the entire game.

Skye will be available to play from October 27th.

NEW MAP

As mentioned earlier, Icebox will be a snow-themed map that is located on a shipyard in Tundra. The map features two bomb sites and ziplines to help players move through certain sections faster. The map will arrive alongside Act 3 but won’t be available for competitive play until two weeks later. You can take the initial looks at the map from the trailer posted by Riot earlier:

BATTLE PASS AND THE ‘SINGULARITY’ COLLECTION

Act 3 will feature an all-new battle pass being added to the game with its release. The updated Battle Pass will feature a new rewards line for the players to obtain by leveling it up. The rewards will consist of exclusive items like skins, buddies, player cards, and can be upgraded to the premium version for even better rewards. Some of the skins from the Battle Pass that have been revealed include the Ruin Vandal, Ruin Shorty, and Ruin Dagger.

The Singularity collection will be an entirely new and separate skin collection that’ll be added to the game alongside Act 3. It will feature skins of Sherrif, Spectre, Phantom, Ares, and a melee.

These, along with new servers for the Middle East and North Africa, are all the changes that you can expect for now in the upcoming Act 3 of Valorant. How do you feel the new map and agent will change the current competitive scenario? Be sure to let us know in the comments.

WHEN IS ACT 3 COMING?

Riot has already confirmed on multiple Occasions that Valorant Act 3 will arrive on October 13th.

If you play in North American servers, you’ll be able to queue for your last ranked game this Act till 4:30 AM Pacific Time. Games queued after that will count towards your next Act’s rank.

Among Us Update: What to expect in the upcoming patch

Among Us Update: What to expect in the upcoming patch

Among us is the most hyped game right now. The game offers memorable experiences and surprising moments that lead to an enjoyable experience for the players. As the game became popular after two years of its initial launch, it was not completely stable and hence to work on it, the developers cancelled Among Us 2 and are now focusing on improving Among us itself. A new update is coming soon for all the platforms and here is what you can expect out of it.

Among us is currently the global phenomenon and is a simple and casual game that is enjoyed by many. From Twitch stars to celebrities, everybody is trying their hands on this game but it is far from stable. From several server issues, the game lacks several integral parts like the player identification system. The upcoming update is said to fix many issues along with some major changes.

Among us public beta

Among us has already entered a new public beta testing on PC platforms and players can access the beta version via Steam. Many players from the community have stated the same process and here is how to do it:

  • Launch Steam and right click on Among Us.
  • Go to properties.
  • Go to betas tab and switch on public beta.

Among Us Update new features

With the public beta enabled, players have noticed several changes in the game settings and game itself. The game has introduced two massive features of “Task Bar Off” and “Anonymous Voting” which will add a big twist to Among Us.

Anonymous Voting

Several players who entered public beta noticed and informed this change as soon as possible. This feature is self explanatory and enables players to vote anonymously. This means that the vote will no longer be visible at the end of meetings and hence, adds an element of surprise to the matches.

Task Bar toggle

This is another massive change that favours the imposters. The players who used to keep a keen eye on the task bar to catch the imposters that faked tasks can no longer do so. There is an option to enable the task bar but turning it off makes the game more thrilling.

Colourblind support

The colourblind community that found it hard to complete the most common “Fix Wiring” task due to its colour differences don’t have to worry anymore. With the new update, the game will introduce unique signs for each colour to make the tasks easier for them.

What else can be added?

For now, these are all the changes that are confirmed to come in the new update. Before releasing the final version, the game can also introduce following things:

Games like Among Us you can play right now

While Among Us failed to make an impact in the first two years of its release, the popularity of the murder-mystery game has blown up in the past few months.

InnerSloth’s title features up to ten players spawned in a spaceship with various tasks scattered across the ship for the crewmates to do. However, there are some hidden impostors among them whose objectives are to stop the crewmates from doing tasks and kill them all. The crewmates can win by either finishing all the tasks or finding out who the impostors are and eject them.

If you’re a fan of this game of stealth, lies, and deception but are bored from playing the same game over and over again, then you might be looking for some more games to play which are similar to Among Us. Luckily, there are a lot more games in the same genre that feature similar basic concepts like Among Us.

1) Town of Salem:

You probably excepted this game to be on the list. Town of Salem is a cross-platform multiplayer social deduction strategy game by BlankMediaGames which was released way back in 2014.

The game takes place in the town of Salem, Massachusetts where players are divided into the mafia, town, or neutral. Similar to impostors in Among Us, the mafia are a minority in the town whose only win condition is to eliminate the townspeople. After every night, the players can see who got killed and can lynch a player who they find suspicious. The town wins if they successfully manage to lynch or kill all the mafia in the town.

But what’s even more exciting in Town of Salem is that the game features 49 unique roles for the players. For example, if you’re a doctor, you can heal other players at night and save them from getting murdered by the mafia.

While Town of Salem can be played for free on mobile with ads, it can be purchased on Steam for a price of $4.

2) Deceit:

Deceit is a multiplayer first-person shooter title by Baseline built on the similar elements of social deduction as Among Us.

Players find themselves waking up in an unfamiliar place surrounded by five others. Two players out of the group of six are infected with a deadly virus, whose goals are to sabotage and hinder the attempts of the innocents to get to the exit. At the end of each zone, the infected transform into a deadly terror form and try to murder the innocents.

Players have to garner the trusts of other players while simultaneously working together to find a way to the exit by traversing a total of three zones as the infected try to isolate and eliminate them one by one.

Deceit is available to play for free on Steam.

3) Trouble in Terrorist Town:

While TTT isn’t a game itself, it’s a mod that available to play in popular games like Garry’s mod, Counter Strike: Global Offensive, or even Roblox.

Players are divided into two groups of Innocents and Traitors. Traitors have to kill all the innocents to win the game but this mode has a major twist – the innocents are armed. If you, as a traitor, fail to kill the innocents quickly enough, not only can they warn others on who’s attempting to kill them but they may also kill you themselves.

Other than the freedom to choose weapons, there are also other additions like the in-game shop which make this game even more thrilling than the similar titles out there. However, unlike the other games, you don’t get an option to ‘vote’ players out.

4) Unfortunate Spacemen:

Similar to Among Us, Unfortunate Spacement is also based in space and feature similar themes. The spacemen have to complete a series of tasks to escape the ship alive while being hunted by a monster taking the disguise of one of the spacemen. The shapeshifting monster needs to pick off the spacemen one by one, else it runs the risk of being hunted down by the group.

The first-person game boasts multiple game modes and is currently free-to-play on Steam.

5) Project Winter:

Project winter is an 8-person multiplayer game of deception and survival. Players have to gather resources, craft items, and complete tasks to call for rescue in the snowy wilderness. Among the group, lies traitors who have to stop the survivors from escaping by ensuring their deaths without getting identified.

Survivors have to communicate to deduce who the traitors are, before being killed or mauled to death by wild animals.

Valorant error code 62 – How to fix it?

Valorant is very well received by the gaming community right from its announced and closed beta testing. The game enjoyed fame in its very early stages and the developers quickly launched its global versions after a few months of testing. For a game that is newly built from scratch, there are bound to be some corners left unchecked.

Players frequently face error code VAL 62– “There was an error connecting to the platform. Please restart your game client.” They are quite common, though, there’s no conclusive solution from your end.

At times, running the game as administrator might fix error 62 temporarily. The errors generally occur when Riot Games is shipping update or the game servers are undergoing maintenance.

Such small corners can become a big upset for the players. Riot games are actually very active in maintaining their servers but still, some issues slip by. Code 62 error is a similar problem that must be occurring due to some small issues in the game.

How to fix Error Code 62

  1. Close Valorant First, then, Press Windows + R Key, type “services.msc”, search for Virtual Disk, right-click and click on properties, change the startup type to Automatic.

There is no need to panic or reinstall the game. The error usually gets fixed in a while. Until then, you may wish to play any other game. Keep an eye on Twitter or Reddit to check out whether the servers are live or otherwise. Eventually, Valorant’s website has a support section with high-priority notifications atop.
