Build phases

The deployable logistics hub: creates the team’s build zone (about 60 m square), stores Build, Ammo, Fuel and Mechanical supplies (20,000 each) and unlocks every FOB-tier structure. Ships with a Small and a Medium hammer, two wrenches, signal grenades and bandages, plus 1,250 Build / 100 Fuel / 100 Ammo / 100 Mechanical starting stock. Not a spawn point. Cannot be placed inside buildings, in main bases or overlapping another FOB zone; keep at least 120 m from other FOBs. Enemies can hack the console in about 30 seconds (loud siren) and take everything, so wall the console first and never let a door face it. Free kits spawn on crane-tower platforms.

Phase 01

Deploy

Buy the kit (Gear → Items → Building, $7,500), put it in a quick slot and hold the left mouse button on flat, open ground at least 120 m from any other FOB and never inside a building or a main base. The team-coloured square that appears is your build zone; everything FOB-tier has to go inside it.

Phase 02

Box the console

Take the Medium hammer out of the console and close a 7×7 box of large blocks around it with a single door on the far corner. Enemies hack the console in about 30 seconds and take everything, so this is the first thing you build, before any wall further out.
