How to use these video guides
Use video when a cave entrance, GPS marker, bunker door, zipline path, base layout, or enemy patrol route is easier to understand by watching the movement. Start with the written hub to decide the goal, then use future video timestamps for approach routes, safe looting, return paths, and combat positioning.
