____________________________________

Attacking Core (Default)
RED + BLUE:
-> from within base (Vehicle/on foot).
-> from Prime Node, hitting Core with Leviathan.
-> from the edge of 'brigde' (@ Berserk).
Just note: from the 'bridge' you can only use Direct-Hit Weapons, others won't make it that far.



Extra Method: -> Attack Core from below (Get on Turret-mountain and go behind Core, jump down). Just note: If you jump down, you fall and get stuck.
If Prime Node gets destroyed/captured by enemy, you have to kill yourself (Suicide Command, ammo may be gone already and you can't always hit yourself).
If your Core is under attack but you see no enemy Players anywhere in base, they may be under it!
Also: By shooting up behind the Core, enemies can see the projectiles/lasers appearing behind it.

Serenity Tricks:
* A nice trick is knowing how the Leviathan-spawning system works with a Countdown Node.
Follow the link to learn how you can prevent enemies from getting that Vehicle, even though the Countdown is already over;
* In case enemies already have a Leviathan, get a Manta, upgrade it with the Damage Amplifier & Berserk (found close to eachother) and hit the Leviathan from distance. If there is no AVRiL protection, it is destroyed fast.
* It's hard for the Redeemer to find its way through the forest. Close to trees you could hit invisible 'shields', causing an explosion.
Better uses would be: killing strong Vehicles/Titans or destroy a Node. If you get the Redeemer, you could jump over the rocks close to Jump Boots, there's an edge at the back you could crouch on.
Shoot the Redeemer kinda away from Map, let it fly next to the rocks at a low level. At the waterfall you can turn to the Map and go for the higher Prime Node (See Image 1 below).
To attack the Core with it, just take it close to there and fire it!
* The Dead Trees objects are half real, the other half is fake. If you get above that real half, you'll stand on a platform. The tree works as shield, protecting from any Direct Hit (as long as you're IN the tree).
Each Prime Node has a Dead tree that you can enter using Jump Boots. Attacking Prime Node is possible. It's a funfact, but even I don't use this one online myself (See Images 2 + 3 below).
* Close to each of the Prime Nodes is an invisible platform when you jump down to 'die'. Using Jump Boots (or Manta if you flew down) you should be able to get out (See Image 4 below). It's just for emergency, to escape enemies when you don't want to die (having Redeemer for example).
