Survival and Looting Strategies at SGT. Winter's Location
Reaching SGT. Winter can be challenging due to the area's popularity as a landing spot. Consider waiting a few days for the crowds to thin. Alternatively, utilize the following strategies:
- Buy Loot: Purchase items from SGT. Winter. The Epic Holo Twister Rifle is a powerful early-game weapon.
- Strategic Landing and Cover: Land early, aiming for a chest near the plane wreckage. Use the wreckage for cover and eliminate opponents. Many players may only have pickaxes initially, offering a tactical advantage.
