Plane Path & Hot Drop Locations

The plane path in Prime Wood Genesis introduces several hot drop zones in the map. You’ll find five main locations:

• Georgopol
• Yasnaya
• Pochinki
• Milta
• Military Base

Each zone has unique loot, portals, and new items to give you an advantage in battle.

New Abilities & Special Items

There are several special items to look out for:

• Flora Wings: A flying item allowing you to move across areas easily with Fly and Land buttons.
• Prime Eye: Grants four powers: Heal, Barrier, Corrupting Flower, and Teleport. The first player to reach it gets exclusive access.
• Bramblewood Scorpion: Can emerge from underground using the Scorpion Horn. Includes features like Spike Bomb, Pincer Strike, and slide attacks.
• Targeting Vines: Unlock later and trap enemies underground, scouting their positions.
• Overgrowth Honey Badger: Found in loot and adds extra abilities to your gameplay.

Gameplay Tips

Here are some tips to dominate in Prime Wood Genesis:

1. Start by looting basic items like Flora Wings, Prime Eye, Barkal, Honey Badger skin, Bramblewood Scorpion, and Targeting Vines.
2. Use Flora Wings for fast movement and tactical positioning during fights.
3. Activate Bramblewood Scorpion for spike traps and powerful attacks to control enemy movements.
4. Secure Prime Eye to gain four special abilities. Heal yourself, shield with Barrier, attack with Corrupting Flower, or teleport strategically.
5. Command Barkal, your new AI teammate, to help you loot, fight, revive, and even carry you across the map for efficient gameplay.
6. Plant cross-match items to get strong loot in subsequent matches.

Hot Drop Battle Zones

Be cautious when landing in Corrupting Mega Flower zones. These areas deal damage if not handled carefully. Portals in Prime Wood Hard unlock access to Prime Eye at four locations simultaneously. Only one player can claim Prime Eye first to gain its powers.
