Yo dudes! Different style tip video here! Giving 5 key tips and describing my overall decision making during a game. If you like this type of video let me know! And if it helps, use code Upshall in the item shop!

Literally after watching this video, I got 3 wins with 10+ kills and by the way I already missed the Upshall videos, keep going!

Your piloting skills in Battlefield was bananas

@upshallgames what sensitivity would you recommend for a console player…preferably on the lower side I can’t do high sensitivity

That has been my favorite secret drop spot since day one. I call the area Windmoor Wharf.

I have a bit different path. I land on the zip near the last windmill and immediately jump down onto the ship at the windmill's base. I loot the bottom, zip up, loot the top, start zipping over, but jump right away so as to land on the base of the next windmill. I rinse and repeat all the way to the ship at the base of the rig, where there's a slurp truck on end sticking out of the water. Then I zip up and loot the rig itself. You can loot all of it VERY quickly if you do it right.

The best part about the location is the two massive zips in different directions. One leads you to a building with a few more chests and a BACK DOOR PIPE INTO GRAND GLACIER'S VAULT (building's parking lot <--> just outside the vault door). Perfect for making a play for the medallion or scooping it up as the storm rolls in (boss dies super quick in the storm btw), third partying, rushing/camping the vault (EMPs and clusters are a good combo for rushing), or camping the other end of the pipe in case they use the pipe from Grand and pop out in the middle of a parking lot with no cover.

The other zip isn't as exciting, but still very good. It leads north to a few small POIs. One has a small cash of case weapons, and the other is Coastal Coms. Its a good rotation for laying low and limiting your encounters.

Even more useful for movement/rotation is that no matter which zip you take, you end up relatively close to a jump pad. The jump pads on the east coast mountain peaks are just a small part of a massive network of zips and pads. It literally spans half the island's coast. If you know the network well and are efficient, you can get to any point on it pretty quickly. Starting east coast lets you take advantage of height, making it easer to travel. You can travel the network eastward (low elevation to high), but its not very practical doing this without berries.

The key to this spot is optimization. You are way out there, so you need move quick if the circle isn't kind. Optimizations like, looting the windmills in the way I described, and taking advantage of the jump pad network, are the difference between this spot being subject to storm RNG, vs a good spot to drop consistently. Also, knowing the storm mechanics and not being afraid of it are super helpful. I think this is why its been overlooked as of yet. I have an onscreen timer that counts down till the storm does 2dps (16min 22sec from start of first 1min grace period), and it counts up after that. So at a glance, I know exactly the amount of damage the storm is doing and will be doing.

This spot has been extremely OP for me, because its been entirely uncontested. As in, I had never seen another player drop there in probably 100 drops of play. Although, I haven't played a lot of ranked. I'm only Plat 1. I thought Windmoor Wharf was a fitting name, since the area is a wharf with a vessel moored to a windmill, and as a result of dropping there, I seem to.. win more. I've been contested twice now, and players have started using bunkers in the vault to abate being rushed from the pipe. Still quite rare to see people at the drop, but the secret is out. Time to share it with the world.

Do you use the same controller settings from the video you made a year ago 50/60 and expo ?

[e_small_s]

Damn, sick ending. Appreciate the tips, you’re the GOAT

[lancesleeps]

Great vid! Didn’t know the suppressor slowed down bullet velocity, definitely won’t be automatically putting it on my sniper anymore

[coltonsimmons]

Let’s go! This was great! Excited to see what you have going on.

[haydennern]

woke up and thought to myself… i wonder if upshall still uploads videos (haven’t watched for 3 years) and sure enough a little nostalgia for me.

[TheoPeagler]

Did 500 damage in the nose in fortnite your tips made me win😂😂😂😂❤❤❤

[Edwin_J_Nunez_Garcia]

Great video i just subscribed to your channel. Do you use expo still or did you change to linear?

[ageedtahir]

Love this style of video. “Let’s go baby “

[Mtn_Mateo]

I really enjoyed this style video, lots of lil nuggets of information

[tybangers]

Do you only play no build now ? or you still play build ?

[noahpeters]

Yo upshall haven’t been around for a min on a new account but I used to love your videos man I feel like a series of you going back to builds wit back paddles or something progression wise would go crazy cuz your aim has always been top tier happy to be back tho

[toxic_zaddy]

i always hate sniping with console since i switched back to p5 but sadly looks like i gotta use it to succeed in ranked

[LanTriBlox]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS. I ALWAYS WATCH THESE TIP VIDEOS AND BASICALLY NO CHANGE SINCE 75% OF THEM I ALREADY DO. I STARTED DOING ALL OF THE TIPS AND CHANGED MY ATTACHMENT STYLE AND IM GETTING NOT STOP DUBS AND CLUTCHES.
