Moving safely between monuments starts with knowing your threat windows players are most active during daylight hours, so night runs give you better odds even with reduced visibility. When checking monuments ahead always scan rooflines and elevated positions since camping spots follow predictable patterns. You’ll want to maintain irregular movement patterns while zigzagging between cover points, and the best approach route usually follows tree lines or rocky terrain away from main roads.

Timings matter a lot here scout each monument approach for 30 45 seconds minimum before moving in, watching for door campers or rooftop activity. The safest rotation path runs through bandit camp and fishing villages since npcs prevent pvp within 50 meters of these locations. Boats purchased at fishing villages let you bypass hot zones entirely with quick water routes, while minicopters provide emergency escape options if you spot multiple hostiles.

Your best windows for monument transitions are during server events that draw players elsewhere. Keep your inventory minimal during rotations basic weapons, meds, and just enough resources to avoid full loot loss on death. When moving as a group maintain 10 15 meter spacing so one well placed explosive can’t wipe the whole team, and coordinate pushes through open areas with overlapping fields of view. The terrain between rocky outcrop and launch site is especially dangerous due to limited cover, so either boat around or time your crossing carefully based on server population.
