Fortnite: How to Use Wolverine’s Healing Power

 

Fortnite: How to Use Wolverine’s Healing 

Power


The marvel crossover has made Fortnite Season 4 an overnight success. Following this, Epic Games is now striving a bit hard to keep the game fresh. Thus, Epic Games have now added various new outfits for all Marvel characters and fortunately, this time these skins contain traits of their corresponding character too. Meanwhile, players these days are after the newly arrived skin of Wolverine because this unique skin comes with the instant healing ability. However, first players need to unlock this unique Wolverine’ skin, and for that, they need to beat Wolverine NPC boss.

Surprisingly, even after obtaining this potent skin, most of the gamers won’t be able to regain health skill because it has to be activated. Below we have provided a proper workaround to use the healing power of Wolverine in Fortnite Season 4.



Fortnite Season 4: How to Regain Health as Wolverine

We have already briefed above that the first step to initiate this process is to unlock the Wolverine skin. The regain ability of Wolverine NPC boss won’t allow gamers to stand against him. Thus, they should opt to normal Wolverine Skin that they can obtain quite quickly as there are various Wolverine challenges available in weekly challenges. When the gamers have successfully attained Wolverine’s skin, then they need to partake in any game mode. More importantly, gamers need to be aware because these days, numerous players are keen to get Wolverine unique skin to obtain its majestic healing power.

The simplest and the best way to avoid conflict with other players is to surpass the hurdles by striding upon tall structures available in Team Rumble mode. Once players have successfully defeated their competitors, then they need to find and collect Medkits, Chug Splash, food items and Bandages. Once players have succeeded in gathering all these items, then they will obtain the ability to heal using their normal Wolverine skill. However, this regained ability is undoubtedly relatively less effective than the one that NPC boss acquires. When gamers have obtained the healing ability in their Wolverine’s skin, then they need to visit Weeping Woods to challenge Wolverine NPC boss.

Precisely, it would be tough to eliminate him, but with new regain abilities, veteran gamers will surely succeed in slaying Wolverine’s NPC boss. Furthermore, gamers who failed in taking him down need to practice or craft a strategy to defeat the NPC boss. Moreover, gamers can use Claws Mythic Weapon of Wolverine because it will unlock Weapon X and it can help them to increase their Wolverine’s potency.

Conclusion

Epic Games have finally fulfilled the demands of Wolverine’s fans after they released new Wolverine skin that contains healing power. However, this skin is quite hard to obtain, but with the information and strategy available in this article, gamers can quickly obtain Wolverine’s unique skin.

“Emily in Paris” is an Awful Show

 

“Emily in Paris” is an Awful Show


Even though the creator has created some overrated pop culture stuff like “Younger”, Emily in Paris was just an unwatchable show.

“Emily in Paris” is currently in the top 10 charts of Netflix’s most watched content this week. However, it makes you question the authenticity of the chart or the likes of people in general. The half-hour long comedy-drama offers you nothing but attractive people doing attractive things which may entertain you for a while if you like escaping your prosaic life. But, then again, this is not the type of content that should be there in the top 10 of any charts in the world other than the one that goes something like “Top 10 Pretentious Shows of All Time.”



I reckon that “Younger” got much more praise than it actually deserved. However, you have to agree that the above-mentioned series had the wit and charm to get you through with it. But, “Emily in Paris,” well, it was just a polychromatic waste of time.

“Emily in Paris” is an escapist genre scripted show consisting of ten half-hour episodes which is run by lively and jubilant Lily Collins’ character Emily and though she should not be blamed for the negative critical responses that the show is getting (the concept is terrible), she hasn’t done anything brilliant either. She has given just about an okay-okay performance.

The show starts with Emily’s friend (Kate Walsh) giving up a job opportunity in Paris because she is pregnant. Emily, who has been introduced to us as a marketing expert, arrives at a high-profile company in Paris and takes everything by storm. Even though the show relays the story of a corporate world and people are supposed to be smart there, each and every character on the show is nothing short of a glamorous supermodel.

Just barely mentioning harassment, gender, and bold female arguments do not make a show feminist. The fact that all the problems Emily ever faced in her new company was related to her being American and her lack of understanding of the French culture takes the show far away from a well-accepted idea of feminism. Feminism is a serious issue in the modern world, so before venturing into such a domain, the creator should have done some proper research.

In very simple terms, none of the corporate world’s strong women acts in a way that Emily does on the show.

The worst aspect of the show is the fact that we see a story from the eyes of a social media influencer. I mean, really? And in the end, she did not even adapt to the Parisian culture at all as it is pointed out by a very talented critic Joshua Rivera for Verge.

Emily, a social media influencer, now spends most of her time working. By working, I mean that she is selling. She is just helping brands get bigger, not the actual people who need help in their success. It isn’t a hero’s journey. She is not my hero.

Everything You Need to Know About the Upcoming “Birdwatch” Feature by Twitter

 

Everything You Need to Know About the Upcoming “Birdwatch” Feature by Twitter

Twitter is one of the most popular social media platforms. There are millions of active users on Twitter who use this platform to express themselves with words, pictures, and videos. The possibility of spreading fake news through Twitter is also high because of its easy access, and thus Twitter keeps coming with innovative ideas to make the platform safer and reliable for users. Recently, Twitter confirmed that it is developing a new feature called “Birdwatch”. This feature will enable users to warn each other from browsing misleading tweets. Twitter has come up with this innovative feature to prevent the spread of false and fake news. This feature is going to be useful as it will minimize the circulation of those tweets, which can harm a community.



Twitter has not yet released official details about the “Birdwatch” feature, but the tech-geeks have already started to sense the arrival of the new feature. It was first brought to light by a tech-blogger Jane Manchun Wong, who uncovers the new features of any app by using reverse engineering tactics. In a tweet made on 5th August, she said that Twitter was working on a moderation tool to monitor misinformation and moderators would be able to flag tweets as misleading, and also add a note to it. She also added a screenshot of the feature in the tweet. Later, in late September, it was almost made sure that this new “moderation tool” is “Birdwatch” as Matt Navarra, a social media consultant spotted a dedicated “Add to Birdwatch” button below a tweet. He also confirmed that users would be able to attach a public or private note to a tweet with this new feature. With the new “Birdwatch” feature, Twitter will let moderators decide the nature of a tweet with voting. With a miniature survey, moderators will be able to vote if a tweet is misleading or not, and if it is, then to what extent it is harmful. We can expect Twitter to roll out more information about this “Birdwatch” feature, as Twitter’s product lead said that Twitter would share more about their plans soon, replying to a tweet of Jane Manchun Wong.

We cannot say when will be the “Birdwatch” feature available for the public in the final form, but we are expecting it to be rolling out soon. It is also sure that Twitter is not going to release this feature before the US election since it is still in its early development.

Twitter has always been serious about making a safe and user-friendly environment. We cannot yet judge the impact of this upcoming feature, but it can certainly be seen as another big step by Twitter to stick to its commitments.

Valorant Act Two to End Soon

 

Valorant Act Two to End Soon


Developed by Riot Games, Valorant is a multiplayer tactical game which was officially released on June 2, 2020. In the main game mode, the players are tasked to play in the attacking or defending team, each one having five players each. Every one of the players plays as an agent with their characters designed according to various cultures and countries in the world. Each player has their own ability that requires charging through various means like killing or spike actions. The game has a plethora of weapons which can be used by players at various stages. Overall Valorant is an exciting game with over 3 million players logging in each day to play.



Riot Games recently announced that in just two weeks the Valorant Act Two would end, and players have only that much time to get all the items they want and complete the battle pass. It is all set to end on October 13, while its ranked matchmaking system will be stopped by 4:30 PT. After the matchmaking system is off, the rank for act two will be locked. You also won’t be able to win the Battle pass anymore and can’t win rewards or skins for the levels that are still locked. There is a good possibility that the skins available right now won’t be available again, so it might be the last chance for everyone to win them. 

Before the release of the new act, we can expect to see a server downtime after the matchmaking is turned off. However, not much is known about the exact time and details of this but based on how act two had rolled out; we can expect that it will be available later in the day itself. Riot Games has even started teasing act three to make the fans exuberant about the release. Several fans have decoded the cryptic teaser, and it is expected that the new location will be some cold place.   

However, if developers of the game are to be believed, a new map is not due as of now. Before that happens, there will be a new map added to every episode of Valorant, which themselves are composed of three acts each. Since with act two we saw the release of Killjoy, we can expect to see a new agent who has some skill that is related to cold or all of this might just be an unnecessary expectation, and the reference might be for a new skin line only. However, irrespective of what change we might see in Valorant, we can be assured they will be quite considerable, so if you are a fan of the game you should prepare yourself, Riot Games might surprise everyone.

How to Improve Underperforming Content

 

How to Improve Underperforming Content

Content is the backbone of any brand trying to establish its online presence in today’s landscape. Content plays a significant role in optimizing and improving your SEO. If we pay close attention to the communication between Google and Webmasters in the last few years, then it’s clear that they have prioritized content for ranking websites or blogs. But despite working so hard on creating unique and relevant content, some content creators fail to achieve a good ranking on Google. Here comes the theory of underperforming content, which is often ignored by various content creators.

What is Underperforming Content?

Underperforming content is a piece of content that does not perform up to its full potential. Despite putting in maximum efforts, some content does not perform up to the mark. There could be multiple reasons behind the non-performance of your content, but the primary reason is that your content is simply not good enough to attract organic traffic.

In this article, we will mention how you can detect and improve the underperforming content:

Google Search Console

You can use the URL inspection tool to understand the status of your page or content. With this tool, you can analyze if you are allowing Google to crawl or index your page. With its Coverage feature, you can access the indexability and crawlability of your page.

Check if there is any difference between declared canonical versus Google-selected canonical. If the two differ, that means Google does not recognize your declared canonicals.



Chrome Extensions

Chrome Extensions simplify our lives to a great extent. Some Chrome Extensions can help you get a lot of information on your content like your page’s indexability status, meta robots tags, and canonical tags. You can check out Chrome Extensions like “SEO minion” or “SEO Meta in 1 click” to access information about your page.

JavaScript Check

JavaScript plays a significant role in improving the interactivity of your page. It may change some key HTML elements that are very crucial for SEO. Various tools like Mobile-friendly tests, Rich snippet results, and URL inspection tools can help you in finding out whether JavaScript might be a problem for your SEO or not.

Intent and SERP Analysis

With SERP and Intent analysis, you can cross-check various reasons why your content is not performing well. You can check whether your content is not compelling enough compared to ranking on page one. Other reasons for your content’s underperformance might include the wrong format of your content, seasonal content, or content being overshadowed by SERP features.

Duplication Issues

Duplicate content hurts your Google ranking. You can use various SEO tools to check whether two or more ranking URLs are flip-flopped. Here, Google cannot understand which URL to rank for a specific keyword. Check if the two URLs are appearing in a search result for an exact keyword. That is also a clear sign of duplicity. You can also check your SEO visibility by landing page. There might be a problem if two different URLs are ranked for similar keywords.

Now, as we have discussed the possible reasons for the underperformance of your content and how you can detect it, let’s dive into the solutions to fix this issue:

  • Check if your page can be crawled and indexed correctly.
  • Make sure your page does not fall under blocked resources in Robots.txt.
  • Make sure your page does not contain a no-index meta robots tag or a canonical tag pointing elsewhere.
  • Check if other pages have a canonical tag pointing to your URL.
  • Make sure your website does not have any non-SEO friendly JavaScript.
  • Make sure your page is internally linked to the site.
  • Make sure your page is present in your XML sitemap.
  • Always research what the SERP looks like for your topic.
  • Make sure you don’t overdo the mapping of keywords.
  • Always pick the top three keywords and focus on making your content relevant to those keywords.
  • Write unique and keyword-rich titles to improve your on-page ranking.
  • Do some SEO keyword research to write interesting meta-data.
  • Don’t change your metadata frequently.
  • Work on the readability factor of your content.
  • Use enough space between lines and paragraphs.
  • Check if your content’s tone and language match your target audience.

Conclusion

Underperforming content is a prominent yet understated issue by many content creators. But by using the right tools and processes in place, you can easily fix your underperforming content.

To fix this issue, make sure you dive into the reasons first and then take necessary measures. You can follow the process mentioned above to detect the likely reasons for the underperformance of your content. Ensure you request your page’s indexing with the URL inspection tool once you have made the necessary changes.
