1. Understanding the Storm 

The storm is a constantly shrinking circle that pushes players towards the center of the map. If you’re caught outside the safe zone (the circle), you’ll take damage over time. The damage increases as the game progresses, making it crucial to stay within the safe zone.

2. Plan Your Route 

Watch the map to determine the location of the first safe zone as soon as you touch down. Make appropriate travel plans. Quickly gather resources and loot, but keep an eye on how far you are from the safe area at all times. To make sure you have enough time to get to safety, keep an eye on the map and modify your course as needed.

3. Use Vehicles Wisely 

Vehicles can be a lifesaver when the storm is closing in. They allow you to cover large distances quickly. However, they can also attract attention due to their noise. Use vehicles wisely, especially in the late game when stealth becomes more important. Balance the need for speed with the risk of being detected.

4. Manage Your Health 

Always monitor your well-being and always carry medical supplies. Having bandages, shield potions, and medical kits on hand is crucial for surviving storm damage. Use these supplies to maintain your health as you make your way to safety if you become stranded in the storm. The secret to survival is knowing when to run and when to heal.

5. Build Strategically 

Building can help you navigate tricky terrain and avoid taking fall damage while escaping the storm. Use ramps and platforms to move quickly over obstacles. In tight situations, building walls and structures can also provide temporary cover, allowing you to heal or plan your next move.

6. Stay Calm Under Pressure

Errors might result from panic. Even when the storm approaches, maintain your composure and attention. Remain calm and follow your plan. If you find yourself in a difficult situation, keep in mind that survival requires acting fast and wisely. Keep your cool and follow your gut.

7. Late-Game Strategies

 In the late game, the safe zone becomes smaller and the storm more dangerous. Positioning is crucial. Stay near the edge of the safe zone to avoid being surrounded. Use the storm to your advantage by positioning yourself between it and your enemies, forcing them into the open. This can give you a tactical advantage in the final moments of the game.
