Five beginner tips and tricks for Battlefield RedSec

1) Switch to the Sledgehammer

You drop into Battlefield RedSec Fort Lyndon with a Pistol, a melee, and two gadgets unique to your class. While the Combat or Hunting knife is capable of taking down targets from behind, the Sledgehammer comes with added abilities.

Keeping Battlefield 6's core destruction alive, Battlefield RedSec features destruction at the same level. If an enemy squad or duo is hanging around the corner of a building, smash it down with the hammer and watch it crumble down on top of their heads. That said, the Sledgehammer is also capable of taking down unsuspecting targets with a Takedown.

2) Utilize weapon kits

Weapon kits can be found lying around the map of Fort Lyndon in Battlefield RedSec. They feature various firearm categories and help you gear up your guns with attachments.

If you have a few in your inventory, just drop them on the ground and interact while having a weapon of the same category equipped. Do note that higher rarity weapons will feature more impactful attachments and mods when using weapon kits.

3) Second chances and Redeployment

Second chances in Battlefield RedSec work like a guaranteed Gulag Victory from Warzone. Up until a certain point of the match, you and your team members have the chance to drop into Fort Lyndon once again after you get wiped. That said, there is a small waiting period before you can do so.

Once the Second chance gets disabled, revival solely relies on the Redeployment towers. Players can find them across various Points of Interest (POIs) in Battlefield RedSec. You just need to stay close to the tower, inside a green circle, until the meter on top of your screen fills up.

4) Watch out for the deadly ring

Although the fire ring in Fort Lyndon of Battlefield RedSec is dubbed the deadliest in the franchise's history, there is a small leeway if you want to play around it. This ring can start dealing damage to you from a distance of 40m. However, touching this fire does not spell instant death.

You will only have around one second before you get wiped out. While there isn't a lot of breathing room around this small of a time frame, it also suggests that playing close to the ring might not be as bad an idea in Battlefield RedSec.

5) Classes and XP boxes

Classes matter to a certain degree in Fort Lyndon. While their importance isn't as layered as it is in the Battlefield 6 multiplayer, their quirks do award certain advantages. For example, Supports can utilize their supply bag to refill ammo for themselves and their teammates.

Engineers can open certain vaults using their torches. The Recon class can use drones to canvass an area before making their next move. While the Assault can utilize their deadly handheld launchers.

In addition to that, classes can level up their abilities just like in Battlefield 6 multiplayer by locating certain XP boxes. These are scattered across the map and urge you to explore and reach unconventional areas.
