In the world of soccer, a Trivela Shot stands out as a technique involving the curling of the ball using the outer part of the foot. In EA FC 24, mastering this move entails proper player positioning, honing aiming skills, and executing a specific key combination. 

This comprehensive guide aims to instruct you on executing a Trivela Shot effectively, thus enhancing your goal-scoring capabilities. Of course, if you want to win more games easily, it is also necessary to invest a certain amount of FC 24 Coins in your players.

Keep in mind that the keybindings may differ depending on the control configuration you’re using, with this guide focusing on EA FC 24’s Classic (or Default) settings.

Steps To Perform A Trivela Shot In EA FC 24

To execute a Trivela Shot in EA FC 24, follow this formula: on PlayStation, press L2 + Circle, and on Xbox, press LT + B. 

Ensure that your player is aligned with the opposite post and simultaneously press the shot button while holding down the left trigger. Note that for right-footed players, align them with the left post, and for left-footed players, align them with the right post.

A player executes a trivela shot, which is typified by a curling trajectory, by striking the ball with the outside of their dominant foot. A player's foot must be positioned correctly to line up with the intended direction of the shot. If you don't, your shot can seem standard or fancy.

During a free kick, execute a Trivela Shot by positioning the player on the opposite side of the ball relative to their dominant foot. Then, adjust the curl indicator on the ball to the opposite flank using the left joystick.

How To Take The Ideal Trivela Shot Position? 

For optimal execution of a Trivela Shot, positioning yourself along the sides of the penalty box is key. 

By positioning away from the penalty arc and facing an open space, while aligning with either the right or left post, you enhance your chances of successfully scoring a goal with a curling shot.

The 4-3-2-1 formation presents ample opportunities for Trivela Shots, particularly with LW and RW (Left Wing & Right Wing) supporting the Striker. In this configuration, the Back Wings create opportunities for the offensive Wings to attempt curling shots, while the Striker stands ready to capitalize on any potential rebounds.

To maximize your chances, consider maneuvering your LW and RW towards the corners of the penalty box, further optimizing the formation for executing Trivela Shots.

Advice On How To Score With Trivela Shots 

To improve your accuracy with curling shots, consider the following tips:

Select a player with the Trivela PlayStyle, especially if they possess Trivela+ capabilities. This enhances the likelihood of executing precise shots with curl.

Be mindful of the Goalkeeper’s positioning, as skilled opponents may strategically adjust their goalkeeper to counter Trivela attempts. Ensure the Goalkeeper remains stationary before initiating the curling shot.

Employ shot cancellation when facing potential blocks. Press the X button (A on Xbox) to cancel the shot if it’s likely to be blocked. This creates a fake shot that can deceive the opposing defense and create openings.

Avoid excessive power when executing curling shots. When near the box, utilizing three or three and a half bars of shot power is typically adequate. Exceeding this threshold often leads to missed shots.

In this discussion, we'll delve into the launch of Phase 3 of the Season of Discovery. To adequately prepare for the upcoming expansion within this phase, I'll provide several tips. Initially, I'll offer general advice, followed by two distinct strategies for efficiently reaching level 50.

Of course, if you want to have an excellent performance in Phase 3, it is very necessary to accumulate WoW SoD Gold from now on!

General Tips

To begin, let's discuss some flight paths that are essential to have but may pose challenges to acquire or may be contested upon the release of the new phase.

Firstly, it's advisable to secure the flight path in the Blasted Lands if you're part of the Alliance. Conversely, if you're with the Horde, there's one available in the Swamp of Sorrows, which is more accessible due to its proximity to the Sunken Temple, also known as the Temple of Atal'Hakkar.

Additionally, ensure you have access to the flight path in Loch Modan if you're aligned with the Alliance. As for the Horde, their flight path may not be available until they reach the Burning Steppes, though this information could require confirmation.

Furthermore, it's crucial to obtain the flight path to Tanaris and subsequently to Desolace.

If you're aiming for efficiency, here's what you should do: Start by selecting a level 39 character with one or two bars remaining until the next level. Then, position yourself in a major city to accumulate full Rested XP bars, which takes 10 days and grants a bonus of one level and a half, effectively providing a 200% increase in XP gain.

If you've completed the Sleeping Bag quest, consider delaying the last turn-in to achieve level 40 swiftly. Ensure you retain all of your Student Fodder. Refraining from using it is crucial as there's a cap on your Rested XP bar, rendering it ineffective.

Alternatively, if you've already completed the Sleeping Bag quests and still possess your Student Fodder, it's acceptable. Just ensure you have a few straightforward quests to turn in to reach level 40, as quest experience doesn't contribute to your Rested XP bar.

On Release Day

On the day of the expansion release, follow these steps: 

If you're Alliance, head to Ironforge and acquire all the quests for Gnomeregan. Complete the dungeon and turn in the quests, which should boost you to approximately level 41 and a half. Then, obtain all the quests for Uldaman. For Alliance players, they're located in Ironforge and the Badlands. Complete these quests to reach approximately level 44 or 45.

Next, journey to Tanaris when you're around level 44 or 45, preferably with a competent group. Obtain the quests from the Shimmering Flats and Tanaris to venture into Zul'Farrak. Continue running Zul'Farrak until you're approximately level 48.

If you have a proficient group and feel confident, consider proceeding to Desolace. Collect all available quests and primarily focus on running Maraudon until reaching level 40.

This sequence is chosen because the content of Zul'Farrak and Maraudon remains uncertain, as their loot tables have not been updated. Additionally, much of your Pre-BiS gear is anticipated to come from these dungeons, with potentially some items from Uldaman. However, the specifics remain unknown due to changes in dungeon loot since Classic, making Zul'Farrak and Maraudon vital sources of gear for mid-to-high-level characters in Classic.

Now, transitioning to a more casual or standard approach, it's advisable to complete quests for Gnomeregan and Uldaman before the new phase release. However, refrain from turning them in until later.

In the Uldaman questlines, there are numerous chains, limiting how far you can progress on all of them. However, this streamlines your journey, saving you some time. On the day Phase 3 launches, begin by swiftly completing Uldaman, then promptly turn in all the associated quests. Repeat this process until you reach level 44. Alternatively, you can engage in quests in the Swamp of Sorrows, Stranglethorn Vale, or Tanaris.

For further guidance, there's a comprehensive guide available on Rested XP's website, focusing on maximizing your experience gains. Otherwise, proceed with running Uldaman. Upon reaching level 45, transition to Zul'Farak with its quests. Subsequently, at level 49 or 50, undertake Maraudon with its quests. If preferred, you can adhere to the Rested XP guide to streamline your progression.

Beginning our adventure today, we immerse ourselves in the nuanced mechanics and essential equipment necessary to excel in the Spellslinger CoC Detonate Dead of Chain Reaction Inquisitor build. Renowned as the premier league starter for POE 3.24 Necropolis League, mastering this build is paramount to success.

Key Mechanics Of This Build

A character we are playing today is Spellslinger Cast on Crit Detonate Dead of Chain Reaction Inquisitor. We can swiftly develop this build as early as Act 4 with a basic four-link setup.

For the initial endgame phase, I’ve opted for a comprehensive unique equipment setup. This choice simplifies matters, as many players, particularly newcomers, may not feel comfortable with crafting or may lack knowledge in that area. By focusing on assembling appropriate POE Items with compatible gems and sockets, victory becomes achievable.

As for the advanced endgame, such as in the first week of play, I’m still deliberating whether to commit fully to this build for all content or pivot to another option. My decision hinges largely upon forthcoming patch notes.

Skill Gem Configuration

The surge in popularity of Detonate Dead, or the possibility of its nerf, could pose challenges for our build. However, should GGG decide to significantly alter the Transfiguration Gem associated with Detonate Dead, we have alternatives such as Volatile Dead, including its Seething variation, or even conventional ones. I’ve conducted tests on these alternatives, and while they perform adequately, they do exhibit a slight delay.

In some instances, acquiring these gems may prove costly on the first day. Therefore, if you’re not keen on racing ahead or adopting a highly competitive approach, I recommend investing more time in the labyrinth to craft your own gems and farm unique items for your setup.

Upon obtaining our skill gems, it becomes imperative to boost our critical chance to support gems like Cast on Crit and Volley Fire Barrage. Personally, I find Barrage to be a superior skill for triggering Cast on Crit as it feels less cumbersome. Additionally, using a wand that facilitates quicker power charge accumulation can enhance our corpse detonation rate.

Obtaining a Diamond Flask at the earliest opportunity, preferably with a chance to gain flask charges on Critical Strike, can significantly enhance our quality of life.

With the primary DPS gem setup addressed, incorporating a Spellslinger setup for Desecrate contributes to our overall quality of life. However, this setup tends to be quite demanding on mana early on, necessitating the use of mana flasks until we secure mana leech support to sustain it.

Other essential gems, such as Arcane Cloak, Shield Charge, and movement skills, can be customized according to individual preference. It’s important not to overlook the inclusion of Mark on Hit and Assassin’s Mark to facilitate easier single-target encounters.

In the interim, focus on leveling up a spirit gem for Desecrate to maximize our damage output. Additionally, integrating the Precision Aura into our setup is advisable.

Unique Items

Regarding the wand, our ideal choice is the Eclipse Solaris Engraved Wand, or any wand boasting Critical Strike chance. However, the Eclipse Solaris stands out as the top contender in this slot, surprisingly affordable at less than one chaos. Not only does it impart blindness upon enemies, but it also offers a Critical Strike multiplier, attack speed, and all the essentials required for our build, essentially free of charge.

As for the shield, our target is the Lycosidae Rawhide Tower Shield, which ensures our accuracy. Consequently, we can bypass the need to allocate a passive point for accuracy, as our strikes never miss.

The helmet primarily serves to enhance our quality of life. While the choice here is flexible, Onslaught proves particularly beneficial due to our reliance on attack speed.

When it comes to armor, we seek the optimal balance between evasion, block, and spell suppression. Early on, acquiring a unique armor such as the Briskwrap Sun Leather for mana regeneration from flasks and Pragmatism to amplify damage output, or Yriel’s Fostering Exquisite Leather for an early boost in critical chance, provides the best value.

For gloves and boots, our priority lies in securing life and Mana Leech, alongside a high dexterity stat to accommodate the build’s dex requirements. Lioneye’s Paws and Slitherpinch emerge as top contenders, offering both substantial stats and quality of life leech benefits.

Wurm's Molt is indispensable for the belt, ensuring our survivability and mana management during the early endgame phase. Its additional stats are equally crucial, especially considering Inquisitor's Righteous Providence, which heavily relies on stat stacking for critical chance.

Opting for a Thief's Torment Prismatic Ring proves a wise choice for the ring slot, offering invaluable assistance with resistances, life, and mana on hit.

Regarding amulets, the selection can be somewhat nuanced. Early on, Ungil's Harmony is essential for maintaining a high cast on crit frequency, later transitioning to the Bloodsoaked Medallion as we level up. If Ungil's Harmony is chosen, it's imperative to allocate the Elemental Overload Keystone to mitigate the downside of reduced damage from Critical Strikes.

The Waylaid Supplies reputation system has undergone several updates since the initiation of Season of Discovery Phase 2. However, the most prominent alteration is the introduction of new rewards accessible upon reaching revered status.

These rewards encompass fresh binds and account jewelry, conveniently mailable to low-level alts, essentially functioning as Heirlooms without the 10% experience buff. Additionally, the reputation vendor presents a distinctive 16-slot bag, currently the largest available in SOD.

This guide aims to elucidate all the quality-of-life enhancements implemented by Blizzard in the Waylaid Supply system during Phase 2. Furthermore, it will outline the optimal farming locations for acquiring higher-level crates, facilitating swift acquisition of Heirlooms and the coveted 16-slot bag.

Intro

The fundamental workings of this system remain largely unchanged from Phase 1.

Crates can still be encountered infrequently from mobs in the open world and somewhat more frequently within chests. However, the most significant alteration lies in the fact that crates are no longer singular. You can now carry multiple crates simultaneously, eliminating the need for constant trips back to major cities.

Nevertheless, this change comes with a drawback: unfilled crates can no longer be exchanged for a reduced amount of reputation. To boost your standing with the Waylaid Supplies faction, you must ensure that each crate is filled with the required ingredients. It's important to note that this modification applies retroactively to both the lower-level crates from Phase 1 and the new crates for levels 25 to 40.

That said, Blizzard has also lowered the criteria for filling most crates and substantially increased the amount of WoW SoD Gold you receive from turn-ins. Higher-tier crates now grant 12 gold upon successful completion, potentially resulting in a profit exceeding the initial crate-filling costs in some instances.

Exploring New Rewards And Changes In Phase 2 Crate Farming Strategies

Before delving into the crate farming strategies I've employed during Phase 2, I'd like to provide a more comprehensive overview of the new rewards.

As mentioned earlier, achieving revered status will grant you access to a 16-slot bag and 3 new BoA necklaces, enhancing agility, strength, and spell power. Additionally, you'll have the opportunity to acquire an alchemy recipe for Lesser Arcane Elixir, a highly coveted consumable among casters in Gnomeregan. While these constitute the sole new rewards for reaching revered, Blizzard has also introduced retroactive rewards for Friendly and Honored standings.

Previously, runes associated with this reputation required Honored status; however, Blizzard has adjusted this requirement to only necessitate Friendly status. This alteration significantly streamlines the process for unlocking crucial runes like "Just a Flesh Wound," a decision I believe to be commendable on Blizzard's part.

To offset this change, Blizzard has included new BoA rings among the honored rewards, mirroring the attributes of the revered necklaces. With three rings available, boasting strength, agility, and spell power, players have more options to enhance their characters. Additionally, an engineering recipe for Soul Vessel awaits players at honored status, a vital item for Warlocks seeking to acquire a rune at level 40.

Optimal Farming Spots For Phase 2 Crate Acquisition

Now, let's delve into the optimal farming locations for the newly introduced crates in Phase 2.

As previously stated, these crates can be obtained either as a rare drop from mobs or more reliably by looting chests. While chests do not guarantee the presence of Waylaid Supplies, they remain the most dependable method for crate acquisition. It's important to note that not all chests are created equal. Their contents vary based on the zone and the proximity of mobs. Chests can yield crates ranging from level 25 to 40.

For those aiming to ascend from Honored to Revered, it's essential to focus on acquiring at least level 30 crates. Consequently, areas like Duskwood, where chests may yield only level 25 Waylaid Supplies, should be avoided as they offer minimal value.

Determining the most lucrative crates within the level 30 to 40 range depends largely on the market prices of items on your server. In my experience, farming level 40 crates proves most beneficial, offering a substantial 1k reputation boost. Additionally, certain crates like White Bandit Masks are particularly cost-effective to fill.

If you're on the lookout for chests predominantly yielding these coveted level 40 crates, your top choices would be the Badlands and Desolace. Personally, I found farming in the Badlands quite enjoyable, as every chest spawn presents an opportunity to obtain these sought-after level 40 crates. Additionally, this zone is relatively secluded and doesn't attract many adventurers, minimizing competition for chest hunting.

Moreover, what makes the Badlands even more appealing is that many chest spawns are only surrounded by a handful of mobs, making access remarkably easy. In contrast, zones like Dustwallow Marsh feature chests in densely packed areas, significantly increasing the farming challenge.

While the Badlands offers an excellent option, Desolace also stands out as a prime farming spot for these chests. However, Desolace presents a slightly different scenario: the southern half of the zone is abundant with level 40 crates, while the northern half tends to yield level 30 crates.

Despite my earlier endorsement of level 40 crates, acquiring a few level 30 crates occasionally isn't a bad deal. If you're farming these chests with a level 40 character, dispatching mobs in Northern Desolace is swift, granting easy access to these lower-level chests. Many of these crates are also cost-effective to fill and provide a respectable 700 reputation boost relative to the cost.

An additional perk of farming in Desolace is that many chests spawn within the Magram or Gelkis Clan Centaur camps. If you're on neutral terms with these tribes, you can simply approach the chest and loot it without engaging in combat. For those looking for a more relaxed approach, these camps offer one of the best opportunities for chest farming while being mostly AFK.

In terms of other zones, Alterac Mountains does offer a fair number of chests, but the area tends to have high mob density, with spawn locations often surrounded by elite ogres. Arathi Highlands proves fruitful for farming level 30 to 35 crates, especially in farm areas or troll camps. However, level 40 crates are only found in chests in Stromgarde or the underwater Naga section, both of which can be tedious to navigate.

Lastly, while Stranglethorn Vale boasts numerous chest spawn locations, its vast size and high mob density make crafting an efficient farming route challenging. Additionally, with its popularity, especially during the Blood Moon phase, competition for chests can be fierce.

While it's possible to farm Waylaid Supplies in other zones not mentioned here, they tend to be less efficient due to various factors. My recommendation would be to start with Desolace or the Badlands. If they're too crowded, you can always explore the alternative zones mentioned earlier.
