Boom Beach: Are Ice Statues Useful?
I find it oddly common where many bases contain Ice Statues. The most popular proposed play strategy in Boom Beach is to go purely offensive and worry about defense only once you’ve finished hitting HQ 22. If that’s the case, why are there so many Ice Statues, especially MP defense ones? Are they really that…

Boom Beach: Why Keeping Your Armory Upgraded Is Critical
Your Armory is one of your most important buildings to maintain as you gain levels. Around the midgame maintaining your Armory starts to take its toll in competing for valuable resources with your base, Gunboat, Statue, Vault, Radar and other critical defenses like Rocket Launchers and Boom Cannons. Because of the high cost in resources…

Boom Beach: The Advantages/Disadvantages of Tanks-Grenadiers-Medics Combination
I have two accounts where I’m using the Tanks-Grenadiers-Medics combination. My second account originally was intended to switch towards a Warriors type but I’ve had little to no success with Warriors whereas my Granks/Medics have been my favorite staple so far. What makes this troop combination so good and where are the issues?

Boom Beach: How Well I Did During the October Event
This is my third time doing event I believe. The first few times, I really had zero clue about how it worked and just viewed it as a special loot pinata. This time around I’ve been following a few streamers and getting a better idea of how to approach the event. That said, I still…

Boom Beach: PSC Statue or Not?
PSC (Power Stone Chance) statues are an interesting type that I’ve read as being labeled for “advanced strategies.” Are they worth employing in your grouping? Or should you just try them whenever you receive one? Also, when should you boost them? I’ll attempt to answer these questions from my own experience.

Diablo 3: Tips for Leveling in Season 8 for the Solo Player
Starting from scratch can either be a pain or a lot of fun depending on what your goal is during a new season. I like the idea of a fresh start because you get to try a few new things here and there as well as see the progress of a character with little to…

Diablo 3: Demon Hunter Marauder Endless Walk Build for Patch 2.4.2
Typically, for Marauders builds these days, you’ll see the M6 pairing with Focus/Restraint (Bastion of Will), Manticore, Wraps of Clarity and a few other key items. While this build is high in damage, it has a few issues in vulnerability when sentries are not up, is resource intensive and slow. So I want to present…

Boom Beach: The Understated Importance of An Upgraded Vault
It shocks me whenever I see a base with a low level Vault, especially around my HQ level. One of the top priorities whenever you level is to maximize your Vault immediately. Why? Because it’ll minimize how much an opponent can damage you.

Boom Beach: Low Level Prototype Defense of Choice
Today, I had a very interesting experience where another player attacked me roughly 3 times with troops and maybe a dozen times total (not sure if he was cheating and/or scouting me out). At any rate, his actual attacks failed every single time. Though lower level than me, I could tell that even if he…

Baldur’s Gate 2: More Character Mod’ing with EE Keeper
So once again, I decided to try some hacks with EE Keeper. Now, previously, I was able to change the NPCs into classes that were far more interesting than what they were provided. There wasn’t any technical penalties thus far in the game. The next question is whether I could try a few other combinations,…
