ZERATUL_BUILD_HEROES_OF_THE_STORM

ZERATUL_BUILD_SEARING_ATTACKSLevel 7: Searing Attacks is the clear choice for me at this level even though some of the other skills are not to be completely dismissed either. Particularly, Shadow Spike is a great skill because it allows you to remain invisible while casting Singularity Spike and it also increases its range. However, the point of the Silent Strike build is to increase the damage output of Zeratul and Shadow Spike doesn’t really help you with that. Searing Attacks certainly does and in a big way to boot. When activated, this skill increases your basic attack damage by 50% for 5 seconds, which doesn’t seem like a long period of time, but when couple with all the other skills, it turns you into an incredibly efficient killer.

On the downside, each attack costs 15 mana while Searing Attacks is activated so make sure to keep that in mind. I find this skill to be the best choice here because 5 seconds is in fact enough time to kill almost any enemy hero under the right circumstances. First Aid and Follow Through are useless for Zeratul in general and although Rending Cleave might seem like a nice skill to have, it’s not worth picking over Searing Attacks or even Shadow Spike.

ZERATUL_BUILD_SHADOW_ASSAULTLevel 10: I trust that you already see where I’m going with this build, so I don’t think anyone will be too surprised that I’m picking Shadow Assault here. Void Prison might be great in a lot of other builds, but Silent Strike focused entirely on damage rather than utility and this is not a skill that gives you any extra damage or even an opportunity to inflict extra damage because enemies caught in Void Prison are invulnerable. You can use it to set up a good attack if you can coordinate with your team mates, but for the most part Void Prison is used defensively, not offensively.

Zeratul is certainly annoying when you’re about to kill him and he throws down a Void Prison, but he’s even more annoying when he activates Shadow Assault and there’s very little you can do to escape from him. Shadow Assault allows Zeratul to lounge at an enemy and keep following him or her for 6 seconds, during which he also gets a 20% attack speed boost. This skill is very potent in and of itself, but when coupled with Searing Attacks and any bonuses you gain through Seasoned Marksman and Gathering Power, it becomes downright devastating to your enemies.

ZERATUL_BUILD_ASSASINS_BLADELevel 13: At this level you get multiple decent skills to choose from, but the one I find to be the most powerful is Assassin’s Blade. This passive skill grants you a 25% damage boost for 5 seconds after breaking cloak and you’ll also get a 10% movement speed bonus as long as you remain invisible Admittedly, you’ll need some pretty good timing if you want to make the best use of this skill, but as long as you plan on going in for the kill immediately after breaking cloak you should be fine.

Alternatively, you can also go for Wormhole if you want to go for some fancy plays, but you’ll need to have great control over Zeratul in order to make that happen and there’s no extra damage to be had by doing so, which is why I don’t recommend picking it if you want to use my Silent Strike build. Burning Rage and Giant Killer on the other hand do increase your damage output somewhat but I can’t recommend picking these skills either just because the extra damage they offer is very low when compared to what you can get with Assassin’s Blade. As for Spell Shield, this is purely a defensive skill, so don’t even bother with it.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

If you’re not already acquainted with Highspeed Étoile, you can watch a trailer right here. “Sony has announced that a collection of 26 stickers, consisting of 8 title logos and 18 main character stickers, will be made available for a limited time,” stated Sony on the PS Blog. In addition, Fukushima will be included as a backdrop in the title’s beloved photography mode.

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
