Servers don’t have infinite capacities. Though game developers arrange their servers according to their demand projections, the numbers may not always add up. Games like Lost Ark often draw in more players than expected during their launch due to all the hype, which can cause the servers to crumble under pressure, making it impossible for some players to log in to Lost Ark. While adding more servers can look like the only solution to this problem, there are other ways to ensure all players get to enjoy Lost Ark even during its busiest moments.

Flasks are extremely important in Elden Ring both for survival and to ensure you’re prepared to deal the most damage possible to bosses and enemies. Like previous Soulsborne games, Flasks come in multiple types. The most common is used to heal HP and FP. In Elden Ring, a third type of Flask can be found too: the Flask of Wondrous Physick. This item is unique in that players can craft their own potions to go inside the Flask, which can be used once each time they rest at a Site of Grace.

The first international League of Legends event of the year starts with the Mid-Season Invitational in Reykjavík, Iceland on May 6.

Eagle-eyed fans might have spotted a familiar Ubisoft character in the background of the Battlefield stage in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate after the release of the recent 3.0.0 update. Fans believe they’ve found Rayman, Ubisoft’s mascot, in the background of the stage where the icicle sticks out of the ground. It’s a bit blurry and hard to make out, but it seems like Rayman is frozen in the ice. You can seemingly spot Rayman’s hair, head, and limbless body.
