Shining Beyond Tips and Tricks Guide for New Players
Download Shining Beyond on PC
Just installed the new Shining Beyond and having trouble getting started? We don't blame you; this new game by developer XII Braves gives us a new approach to gacha RPGs, this time centered around dungeon crawling and exploring perilous stages filled with deadly enemies and hazards, all wrapped neatly into an engaging storyline with compelling characters and narratives.
There's quite a lot to see in this new gacha RPG, including events, characters, and countless levels. If you're just starting out in this game, then you'll want to read the best tips, tricks, and strategies that will help you to start off on the right foot. Luckily, you can find all of these, and more, in this Shining Beyond beginner's tips and tricks guide we've prepared for you.
Shining Beyond Gameplay Basics
Most of the action in Shining Beyond takes place in its many levels, which can go from dungeons and city streets, to all sorts of enclosed areas. The stages are divided into rooms that you can freely explore as much as you want. However, if you run into a room with enemies, you'll need to defeat them first before being able to proceed further. If you're playing Shining Beyond on PC with BlueStacks, you can use the WASD keys after defeating enemies to move to new rooms, instead of having to swipe on the screen or tap on the arrows.
In combat, your characters will engage the enemy automatically, though you can control their actions through several means: First and foremost, you can click on any enemy to have your units focus it until it's defeated. You can also click and hold on any spot on the ground to have all your units move there for as long as you hold down the button, which is useful for avoiding AoE or other hazards. Lastly, you can click on the buttons on the bottom of the screen to unleash your characters' skills.
To finish a stage, you must defeat its boss, which is often a tougher version of the regular enemies. Some bosses can have gimmicks such as healers that you must target first before being able to defeat them, while others can be beaten with brute force. Others, however, require more finesse as they can unleash devastating attacks that you'll have to carefully dodge.
Reroll to Start off on the Right Foot
While it offers innovative dungeon crawler levels, Shining Beyond is, at its core, a gacha RPG. This implies that most of your efforts and grinding will be with the objective of gathering materials in order to perform summonings and hopefully get a good character in return. The game is so much easier if you manage to summon one or two top-tier characters, so it's always important to perform these summonings.
Summoning good characters in gacha games like Shining Beyond is often really difficult, considering that the odds of getting SR heroes is very low. For this reason, many players resort to rerolling, a process that consists of starting a new game, progressing until the free 10x summonings, restarting if you don't get good characters, and repeating the cycle until you get a few decent heroes.
Though the exact rerolling process varies per game, we've created a dedicated guide on how to reroll in Shining Beyond, where we cover the method step-by-step, while also sharing a few insights on which characters you should aim for. Feel free to take a look if you want to learn more.
Familiarize Yourself With the Job System
Shining Beyond shines brightly (no pun intended) in the mobile RPG genre due to its innovative job system, which allows the players to further customize their characters and help them specialize in certain areas.
All characters, by default, start out in one out of four basic jobs: Rogue, Warrior, Archer, or Acolyte. This beginner job will determine their role in combat and, while somewhat restrictive at the beginning, you can promote your characters to more advanced jobs as they level up, further specializing them at their base role, or turn them into a hybrid of sorts, combining the skills of two jobs in a single character.
It's important to learn about the different jobs in order to create good teams by avoiding duplicate support jobs such as Clerics, or going all out with Rogues and Warriors while ignoring support roles entirely. Luckily, you don't have to worry too much about this in the beginning since you start off on your journey with one character of each base job. Once you start progressing and summoning better characters, however, you'll need to pay more attention to your formation.
Complete The Boot Camp Missions to Get a Head Start
Once you've finished rerolling and are ready to start the game in earnest, one of your first priorities should be to complete the Boot Camp missions, or at least finish the first step since it will grant you a free SSR selector ticket, which will allow you to recruit ANY SSR character of your choice. It goes without saying that this is one of the best rewards you can get as a beginner.
Luckily, you don't really have to do much to complete this first mission as it automatically finishes after being logged on for 6 hours. You can easily complete it by playing Shining Beyond on PC with BlueStacks, and simply minimizing the emulator with the game running. In this manner, you won't have to worry about not being able to use your phone for 6 hours, or draining its battery by running the game for such a long period.
Upgrade and Equip Your Heroes
Regardless of your initial formation, you should always try to keep your heroes as upgraded as possible in order to increase your odds of completing the first few stages. While your personal skill as a leader is important, such as when targeting the correct enemies or dodging AoE attacks, there will be enemies that you simply won't be able to defeat unless your heroes are strong enough. And to make them stronger, you must make sure that they're at their highest possible level and equipped with the best gear. You can easily check this from the Hero menu, and even use the auto-equip function to give them the best gear without having to think too much about it.
With these tips and tricks, you're ready to get started in Shining Beyond on PC. Feel free to leave us other useful bits of information in the comments below, if you have them. Happy hunting!

Condorchem Envitech provides two types of anaerobic reactors for the biological treatment of industrial wastewater.
The upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor allows for the transformation of an effluent with a high organic load into a biogas and into a stabilised fertiliser. The effluent enters through the bottom of the reactor and crosses upwards a dense layer of sludge (blanket), which causes a filtering effect. A high reduction of the organic matter occurs and the biogas obtain can be used to generate energy.
The upflow anaerobic contact reactor (RAFAC®) makes it possible to transform an effluent with a high organic load into a biogas and into a stabilised fertiliser. It is an optimised system as regards the UASB process, a fact that makes it possible to treat larger loads, maintaining high efficiency in eliminating organic matter.

Oblivion Soave
The title of this release is taken from Oblivion Soave, the beautiful lullaby from Monteverdi's opera L'Incoronazione di Poppea. The title is meant to reflect the mood of the pieces featured on this album, calling the listener to "gently sleep." Despite the unusual combination of bass clarinet and vihuela & theorbo, the pieces chosen for this program translate extremely well. Compositions include works by such composers as Monteverdi, Frescobaldi, Purcell, John Dowland, and more.

I have always been at ease dancing, but being exposed to Ecstatic Dancing* a few months ago was a revelation. No rules, constraints, patterns, partner or alcohol; you and yourself, in the dark, finding out what movements feels right in this very instant. A perfect opportunity to loose yourself to the rhythm and be present to your inner self. It feels so good that I instantly became a regular!
A bit more recently I started taking voice lessons with an outstanding woman I met at a Sufi retreat upstate. The parallel with my recent dance discovery is striking. So far it has had little to do with "singing well" and everything to do with finding what the soul wants; finding how to be in touch with one self and channeling intimate longings through the breath. I am not singing pretty songs, but I am allowing new sides of myself to get out. It is all the more rewarding that singing is not as intuitive a territory as dancing to me.
So I feel like an explorer en route for new adventures… and what's best: the treasure is within.
*in NY I go to No Lights No Lycra in Greenpoint.

how to have good sex
Good Solid Information
Base it on Pleasure
Good Sex can Flourish
Focus on Your Pleasure
Appreciate the Differences
1. Accurate information about your own sexuality, your partner's, and about sex itself.
This means getting away from the myths and unrealistic expectations, and being able to learn about your own sexuality and that of your partner.
2. Having or developing an orientation based on pleasure (arousal, love, lust, and fun) rather than performance.
In other words, holding to some version of the definition of good sex, and being willing to work and focus on arousal, excitement, and passion -- the keys to good erotic feelings.
3. Having the kind of relationship in which good sex can flourish.
Whether your relationship lasts for an afternoon or forty years, its dynamics have a significant influence on the quality and quantity of sex. Relationship issues are typically seen as something more important to women than to men --and they certainly are very important to women -- but, as we shall see, they are also crucial to men. A major aspect of having a good relationship is being able to deal with differences of opinion and conflicts quickly and effectively. Sex usually suffers when there is tension, hostility, or distance.
4. Being able to communicate verbally and nonverbally about sex.
Perhaps the most important component of a good relationship is the ability to communicate. Regarding sex, you need to be able to express your wants and don't wants, your questions and concerns, and your pleasure, and you need to be able to listen to and understand what your partner is expressing. You also need the capacity to discus conflicts and problems with your partner and work toward mutually satisfying solutions.
One reason you need to be able to communicate is that sex with another person involves physical coordination of a kind that's rare anywhere else. Let's compare masturbation with partner sex to illustrate this point. Our bodies are the most sophisticated feedback systems ever built. When you touch your own body, the process is automatic, self correcting and extremely efficient. Continuous feedback between your penis, your brain, and your hand allows the brain automatically to move your hand to achieve the results you want.
Now let's consider your partner stimulating your penis with her hand. Suddenly, things are much more complex. Your feedback mechanism still works -- you know to what extent you're getting what you want -- but your friend isn't part of it. To include her in the feedback loop, you must bring into awareness and put into words what by yourself was done without words or awareness. "Move your hand up...too far...down a bit more...that's right, and a little harder...a little faster...that's good...oops, harder now...faster...that's great," and so on. You even have to tell your friend when to stop stimulating, because she may stop sooner than you want or not soon enough.
This is complicated business, and the complications increase with other acts. In oral sex, for instance, you may have to inform your partner that her teeth are hurting you, and that she should apply more or less pressure with her mouth and hand (assuming that she is also using her hand), or that you want her to take more of your penis in her mouth. With a partner, you may want-and she most certainly wants -- certain kinds of stimulation that you ordinarily can't or don't do by yourself (hugging, kissing, expressing feelings orally, and so on). With her, you may also want certain feelings to develop aside from sexual arousal, and their development may require the expression of certain attitudes and behaviors. With masturbation, you can do it or not do it, or start and abruptly change your mind, stop, and do something else. With a partner, you have to inform her of what is happening. And since the two of you won't always be in agreement as to what should or should not be done, there has to be a way of expressing and dealing with the discrepant desires. Partner sex also carries baggage that masturbation usually does not. If you decide not to masturbate today or for the next ten weeks, or if you decide to masturbate every single day, it's unlikely that issues of love, desirability, or adequacy come into play. It's no big deal whatever you do. But with a partner, things are a bit different. Being able to talk, listen, understand, and negotiate are absolutely essential.
5. Being assertive about your own desires and able to focus fully on your own pleasure and also being exquisitely sensitive to your partner and able to give her what she wants.
I know, it sounds like a contradiction, but it really isn't.
Being only self-centered or only sensitive does not work. The man who only goes after what he wants and pays little attention to his partner will end up alone or with a very unhappy partner. The man who focuses solely on his partner's desires will not get what he wants and therefore be unhappy. And his partner may also be dissatisfied because she senses that no matter how sensitive he is to her needs, he's not expressing or fulfilling his own.
In days of old, sex was mainly
an act of male assertiveness. Having an orgasm inside a woman was what he wanted, and it was far from clear what she might want or what he might be able to do for her. Many men didn't think women wanted anything in sex but engaged in it only because they wanted something else that sex could bring -- conception, a steady boyfriend, a happy husband -- or because they had been tricked into it. For men who weren't cads, the main aspect of sensitivity was not harming the woman; in other words, treating her gently and using protection against disease.
The view, of women as nonsexual came under attack in the last century and increasingly in the twentieth century until it was finally accepted that women were indeed sexual creatures. Men should strive not only for their own satisfaction but also for their partners'. Since men were still seen as more sexual than women, and since they had more leeway to gain experience, it was their task to introduce women to the joys of sex.
The research of Kinsey and later Masters and Johnson added influence to this view. Women were capable not only of enjoying sex but also of orgasm, maybe more orgasms than men. Men ought to give them their due. This was an important step forward, but one result is that men felt more pressured to perform because somehow the message was that they had to "give" their partners orgasms. Some men became so focused on ensuring their partners' pleasure that they forgot about their own.
In "The New Male Sexuality," I hope we are constructing, the satisfaction of both partners is paramount. The man has to assert his own wants and preferences, but also be sensitive to his partner's. It is not his job to give her orgasms, but it is in his interests to understand her desires and to fulfill them to the best of his abilities.
Being assertive and self-focused entails knowing your conditions, going after them, and thoroughly involving yourself in your own pleasure. You want sex now, so you try to interest your partner. You like to kiss this way, so that's what you do. You like to touch her breasts that way, so you do it. You like intercourse in such a position, so that's what you go for. And while doing these things, you're immersed in your sensations and experience, fully present and alive to what is happening. A good lover is assertive in these ways. He knows what he wants, or is willing to find out, and he goes after it without apology or guilt.
But a good lover is also sensitive to his partner's needs. You notice if she doesn't seem interested in exactly what you want or suggests something else, and you're flexible enough to try to combine both of your desires to make for a mutually satisfying experience. And you don't use guilt or other types of coercion to get what you want. A good lover is attentive to his partner's breaths, sounds, and movements and notices what works and doesn't work for her. He also listens carefully when she says what she likes. If she doesn't spontaneously voice her likes and dislikes, he asks. Bad lovers don't ask, don't listen, and don't remember.
A good lover takes the time and energy to use his knowledge to make sure his partner enjoys sex as much as he does. He also knows that sex isn't necessarily over when he's satisfied. Maybe she wants something more. A good lover would not be open to the charge a woman made about her new boyfriend: "He's one of these selfish or unconscious men. When he comes, it's all over. I have to go, 'Knock, knock, can I have a turn, too?'" A good lover is also sensitive enough to not pressure his partner to perform to boost his ego.
It is difficult, perhaps impossible, to be both sensitive and self-absorbed at the same time. The trick is to be able to be both, but at different times. If you want her to go down on you, for instance, ask her to. That's being assertive. But if she says no, accept the no with good grace and find out what else you two can do. If she never wants to stimulate you orally and that kind of stimulation is important to you, talk to her about it and see if something can be worked out. If she wants you to go down on her, listen to her request and do as she wants, say you don't feel like it now, or tell her what your objection is and work something out. If you want her to initiate more, you say so, but you also listen sympathetically if she tells you why this is difficult.
There can be times when sex is mainly for her and others when it's mainly for you. If it's for you, then get into your self-absorbed mode and get exactly what you want. If it's for her, then focus entirely on what she wants.
Of course there are other times when it's mainly for both of you. This requires some shifting back and forth. Perhaps you like to kiss her breasts quite hard but she likes that only, after some softer touching and kissing. So you could do it the way she wants until she's ready for you to do it your way. If she likes slow and gentle intercourse and you prefer it fast and furious, you could do it her way for a while, then your way. Or there can be occasions when intercourse is done her way, other times when it's done your way. Perhaps your favorite intercourse position is from the rear or with you on top. Your partner enjoys these positions but they are not her favorites. Nonetheless, she's happy to use them mainly for your pleasure. She adjusts herself to your pace and tries to give you everything you want. You should accept her gifts and make it as pleasurable as possible for yourself. Perhaps her favorite position is her on top. Now you should accommodate yourself to her rhythm and try to give her everything she wants.
We have already started on the self-centered side by determining your conditions. Now let's deal with how to get them met and how to be assertive in your communications. Sometimes I switch back and forth between the two poles of sexual happiness: assertiveness and sensitivity. I realize it's a bit of a balancing act (both for you as reader and me as writer, as well) for all of us in real life. But it is a balancing act that must be mastered if we are to have truly wonderful sex.
6. Understanding, accepting, and appreciating sex differences.
Perhaps the main reason that being sensitive to your partner is difficult is that she is not only a separate and unique human being, and therefore in some respects not like you, but also because the two of you belong to different cultures.
Of course, one of the greatest attractions women have for us is that they are different. They are small where we are large, soft where we are hard, curvy where we are flat, and they have an orifice where we have a protrusion. But they differ from us in other ways as well, and these differences often drive us crazy, and does the same to them. Since the beginning of time, men and women have been exasperated and frustrated in trying to understand and deal with each other.
Men complain: Why are women so emotional and such nags? Why do they want to talk so much? Why are they so weird about sex? What in God's name do they want? Is there any way to satisfy them? From women come a different set of grievances: Why are men so withholding? Why are they so focused on sex and so unromantic? Why can't they remember a birthday or anniversary? From both men and women come the cry: "Why can't they be more like us!" The common phrase "the war of the sexes" indicates the strength of our feelings.
One could easily get the impression that men and women are totally different, as this man's statement implies: "If the first space visitor arrived from Mars, and was male, I'd have more in common with him than with any woman on Earth." In fact, because we are all humans, we are more similar than different. We all breathe air, sleep, eat, eliminate, use language, think, and feel. If it were possible to quantity everything, we would probably conclude that women and men are 90 percent similar. But it's that remaining 10 percent that causes all the trouble.
Even in something as fundamental as the use of language, there are differences between the typical man and the typical woman. Sex therapist Victor Barbieri sums it up this way: "Men and women use the same words but speak different languages." As Deborah Tannen demonstrated in her You Just Don't Understand, the definitions of even simple terms like talk and conversation depend heavily on whether you are a she or a he. And clearly men and women don't necessarily have the same things in mind when they use words such as relationship, love, sex, and intimacy.
Girls and boys specialize in different areas. Boys learn to achieve and perform in the outside world, while girls get more practice dealing with feelings, communicating, and relating. In addition, males and females come to sex from different perspectives -- girls approaching via love and sensuality, boys more from lust and a desire to prove themselves. While men and women both want love and sex, they have separate styles of love and being sexual.
It is these separate styles that justify thinking of men and women as representing different cultures and that result in no end of misunderstandings, confusion, and conflicts. Here is a common example:
HE: "Everything between us was so tense after our spat on Sunday. I thought if we made love, things would get better."
SHE: "How can we make love? We haven't talked in days."
The differences between the sexes affect our perceptions and understandings of ourselves, our partners, and our relationships and can make us feel bad about all three. It helps enormously to understand and accept these differences. The more you understand and accept your male tendencies, the better and less guilty you'll feel. The more you understand that your partner is acting as she is not because she wants to thwart you, not because she's neurotic, and not necessarily because of anything you've done, but simply because this is the way women tend to be, the better you'll feel both about her and about yourself.
I now turn to some of the main differences between men and women that can lead to misunderstandings and conflicts. Please keep in mind that I do not believe and am not saying that one way is better than another. The point is to promote understanding, not to pass judgment. There are, of course, exceptions to every single item. But the existence of an exception, or even many of them, does not necessarily invalidate a rule.

Halloween is the best time of year to indulge your dark side and watch some classic horror movies. One of the spookiest and most controversial tales is the Amityville Horror. It is supposed to be based on the paranormal experiences of the Lutz family, although there are plenty of people out there who say the story is completely untrue.
Regardless, the story (both in book and movie form) is based in Long Island, New York. The Lutz family moves into the house about one year after a tragedy occurred in the home. They claimed that they were terrorized by poltergeists and other paranormal activity during the next 28 days and then they fled in terror. Claims of swarms of flies in the winter, vivid nightmares, weird sleeping patterns, seeing glowing eyes, damage to the home by unseen forces and more … all of this adds up to one of the most shocking and horrifying stories ever written. The Lutz family even tried to bless the house on their own to no avail. The paranormal experiences continued until they fully moved their stuff out and started to live elsewhere.
Halloween can be a scary and dark time of the year. But what can be even scarier is when your house falls victim to a natural disaster like a fire or tornado. Working with your best interests in mind, Norcia Insurance Consultants can help you receive the full amount of money you are entitled to based on your insurance policy. Give us a call at (952) 892-7831 or 1-866-512-LOSS (5677), or sign up for a free consultation.

Ford plans to nearly double SUV models in U.S. by 2020
Paul Lienert
The future Lincolns include redesigned versions of the Navigator, due this fall. Pictured is the concept Navigator.
DETROIT -- Ford Motor Co. plans to expand its lineup of SUVs and crossover vehicles in the U.S. to 13 models from seven by 2020, according to company officials and supplier sources, in response to rapid growth in SUV sales.
At least three of those future models have been approved for production in the past two years, sources said. Since 2014, the market share of SUVs has increased from 32.6 percent to nearly 40 percent of total U.S. vehicle sales in 2016.
That shift is equivalent to more than 3 vehicle assembly plants worth of production annually, and is driving other automakers, including General Motors and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, to direct more investment towards SUVs and trucks, industry executives said.
"SUVs are the top-selling segment in the U.S.," said Mark LaNeve, Ford vice president of U.S. marketing, sales and service in a statement released late Monday. "That is why we are introducing five new SUVs in the U.S. by 2020," for the Ford brand.
Supplier sources said separately that a sixth new model would carry the Lincoln badge.
This fall, Ford will launch a redesigned 2018 version of its large Expedition SUV, which competes with the Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban in one of the most lucrative market segments in the global auto industry. GM's lineup of large SUVs dominates the segment.
Ford Division, which makes the company's Ford-branded cars, said its current four-model SUV lineup, which includes the Escape, the Edge and the Explorer, will be joined over the next three years by the compact EcoSport, which will be imported from India in early 2018; the mid-size Bronco, which goes into production in late 2019 in Wayne, Mich., and a battery-powered compact crossover with a 300-mile range that begins production in Flat Rock, Mich., in 2019.
Ford Division officials did not disclose details on two other unidentified models. Supplier sources said those vehicles likely are new compact models, where consumer demand is greatest. One is based on the next-generation Focus small car, the sources said, while the other could be based on the next-generation of the subcompact Fiesta.
By 2020, Ford Division's SUV lineup will grow to nine entries, while the Lincoln brand will market four SUVs, all of which share underpinnings with companion Ford models, according to the sources.
Future Lincolns
The future Lincolns include redesigned versions of the Navigator, due this fall; the MKC in 2019, and the MKX in 2021, the sources said. A fourth model, an all-new mid-size entry which suppliers refer to alternately as the Aviator or MKD, is expected to share underpinnings in 2019 with the next-generation Explorer.
In addition, Ford plans to redesign the Escape in 2018, the Explorer in 2019 and the Edge in 2021, the sources said.
Ford has raised its share of SUV sales to 33.9 percent of its U.S. sales in 2016 but the automaker still lags behind GM.
GM's SUVs accounted for 36.6 percent of its U.S. sales last year, up a fraction from 36.2 percent in 2015.
SUVs represented 38.4 percent of total U.S. vehicle sales in 2016, up from 35.9 percent the previous year, according to Autodata.

I've been working from home as a freelance writer for about a year now and in that time there are a few lessons I've learned about productivity and motivation when you're not working in a traditional office setting. I started off by working from the couch, thinking that I could never possibly get tired of the comfort, and even worked from bed a few days a week, only to figure out the hard way that that's the worst thing you can do for your productivity and your sleep schedule. After a while, my body began thinking that my bed was a space for work and I wouldn't be able to fall asleep at night and properly rest after a long day.
From there I tried a few other methods to switch up my routine when working from home—some worked, some didn't, but all of them taught me a bit more about myself and what helps me become more productive throughout the day.
Getting outside at least once a day is so important not only for your productivity during work, but also your overall mental health. You can start to feel a bit crazy when you're trapped within the same four walls, so let yourself take a break and breathe in some fresh air. This can be with a quick walk around your area, a trip to the corner store, even just cracking a window and taking a few moments to unwind when you begin to feel overwhelmed.
The option of having a workspace or even a home office is amazing, however, sometimes you need to switch up the scenery so that you don't fall into a mental rut from looking at the same things day in and day out. Instead of working from your desk, spend the day working from your dining room table. This way, you still have a designated workspace where you can stay motivated, but it'll spice things up just enough to boost your creative juices so that you can keep going with your work. Even taking your work outside to a patio or backyard is a great way to combine this tip with the one above and get outside more.
This one is a bit trickier to do, especially if you need the utmost focus on your daily tasks, but if you're feeling like you need to shake things up a bit and don't have too much on your plate then consider working out of a coffee shop or a library. These spaces offer some well-needed socialization (even if short) while also forcing you to get outside and engage with a different work area. Be sure to pack everything you need with you so that you are able to do all your work when you get there—I like to carry a big tote bag that'll fit everything, including a water bottle to stay hydrated throughout the day.
Sometimes you just need a day off, and that's okay. If you feel like you've fallen into a rut or your mind is just a bit too cloudy to do a good job on what you're working on then let yourself take the day off. Go do something pampering or relaxing without worrying too much about your to-do list or feeling like you are unproductive. A certain amount of productivity goes hand in hand with mental health and self-care, so don't be reluctant to just spend the day doing nothing if that's exactly what you feel like doing. Sure, your work might pile up a little later in the week, but at least you'll be in a better headspace to handle it all a that time.
