Dolby Axon tutorial

As some of you are aware, the possibility of using a program called "RaidCall" BUT, I can't seem to access raidcall.com, so instead I'm going to throw you guys into Dolby Axon. It's got GREAT sound quality and a few features you guys may enjoy. This may be implemented so we'll all have an easier time communicating. This guide will show you how to install it CORRECTLY and how to use it! :D 

Let's Begin. 

1: Just follow this link: https://axon.dolby.com/download_sign_up.php
2: Now that you're there, make an account. It's really easy. Quit your whining.
3: After you've confirmed your email, your download should already be done. Speedy right? Click the .exe which starts the installation.
4: Now for the biggest lie of all mankind, continue to hit next until you see the licence agreement. Nobody reads that bullshit. Hit "I agree" and continue.
5: Choose where on your computer you want to save this thing to. Shouldn't be too hard. Just put it in your documents if you feel you might have to get to it later.
6: Keep going, doing as you please. Until you see "Install" click it. It should finish almost instantaneously. 
7: Run Dolby Axon. <-- easiest thing yet, right?
8: Let me know you've created an account and want in on dolby axon. Tell me your username so I can add you to the group. My username is Tachumo. Just like it is here on the Blog.
9: HOORAY! you've successfully put in dolby axon. Just remember a few key things. And by a few, I mean one. If you're talking with people and want to get rid of the window, DO NOT push the X. That exits you from the chat entirely and you'll have to reboot axon to get back in. 
10: As for joining a room, it's fairly simple. After I invite you, accept the invitation, click on our guild name, and join. Simple as that. 

I'll be posting Episode 2 stuff later on. But it will be here before the day the content actually arrives. See you all online!

VindiBingo and Warframe Update 8

YUP so Nexon NA was like, "Yo dawg, I'ma let the community finish, but before episode 2, we gonna have a muthafuckin' bingo game." As far as I'm concerned, for anyone that isn't sure how it works yet, here it is.

At the start of everyday, you can go see one of the three travelers. (Kitty cats) and they will give you 2 attendance tickets, you can use these on the spot to get 2 random numbers 1- 50 for your bingo board. You also get one PINK attendance ticket. Collect three of these, and you can get a bingo number of your choice. Keep in mind though, that when using the pink slips, you can only choose a number 1- 40. Read that again. 1- 40. One more time. ONE THROUGH FORTY. I swear, if I get asked why we can't buy numbers 41 - 50, someone is getting as ass whooping. 

Along with this Bingo event, Nexon is doing a weekend thing. Starting at 8 pm eastern, 5pm pacific time, this weekend, next weekend, the following weekend, and the weekend after that, different things are going on. Dont forget about all the sales as well!

5/25 5/26 - evil core +1

6/1 6/2 - free dye ampoule event.

6/8 6/9 - 2x EXP event

6/15 6/22 - Raids +1 and free goddess grace event.

And keep in mind, come June 12th, we'll be getting Season 2 Episode 2. So boost them stats up any more you can by then. You'll need them for the insane bosses of next episode. Here's a sneak peek at the Korean Episode 2.5 raid boss. Look carefully and you'll see some new skills. The Boss featured in this video is Executor Pantheum.





SO! In other News, Warframe update 8 is out. Featuring the all new, player created Dojo. I could go into some extreme details on this, but I'm not really feeling it after the Vindi breakdown. Digital Extremes has also released 22 new weapons for warframe. Including a machete, a grineer sniper rifle, and Kunai, which are a silent alternative to a secondary weapon. There are also new maps. Featuring a Grineer ship and THE VOID. The void is an orokin relic found within a dimensional rift. You need keys to access the void. Forgot to mention you also need a key to enter the dojo, but youre given the blueprint to make one whenever you are in a clan. So it's no big problem. 

That's the major highlights this week. Check back occasionally for new stuff. And if I ever find something good, you know where to look.

Back with a vengeance.......and a slap for Nexon NA

Hey fellow Patriots, Valark here, and after a month or two (probably two) I'm back. I feel like kicking some ass. Looking forward to raiding with you guys again. But to get back onto the usual flow of things, I'ma get started with something I've been wanting to do. BREAK OFF TUTORIALS!!! 

Surely you guys have had trouble smashing spots on bosses until you REALLY got a good look at precisely where and how to do the job, so I'm going to keep this relatively easy. Probably start of with something simple. 

Let's start off with Glas. An easy raid boss to break off if you know what you're doing. 
Step one: Locate the break off spot. See that photo up top? if not, you either are blind, or don't have pictures enabled. It's HIS right wing. so if you're looking at the photo, it's the wing on our left. 

Step Two: How2Break. Glas is pretty simple. Knock him down, apply chain hooks. I think at LEAST 2 people must bring chain hooks. Just remember that Evies cannot use chain hooks. Knock down glas using the ballista, and make sure a bow Kai has not jumped onto glas. If a bow Kai does this, it cancels out all the hard work the ballista person did and wastes chain hooks if you already used them. When aiming the chain hook, I usually aim for where the wing either folds over, or meets Glas' skin. Anywhere around there should be okay though. Just make sure it's a solid connection. 

Optional Step Three: If you and your team failed because either you ran out of ballista spears, fear not! There's something you can do still. y'know those spears on the second floor? Grab 'em. March your ass back down and wait for glas to grab someone. When he does this, hit his ankle right where the skin meets the pants. He'll drop the person, and leave an opening for you to do the break off.

Step 4: Enjoy!



Now that that's out of the way, I can honestly say I am disappointed with Nexon. Since I left about a month or so ago, they have basically done nothing. Nexon EU already has Vella's Dual Blades. This happened back on MAY F***ING SECOND. Nexon EU has also obtained a special enhancement rune that protects your gear when going to +11. I'm not sure if it was an event item or if it's available in the shop. Either way, Nexon NA has a ways to go until we catch up.
