Before you start

3 · In the menu that appears, pick your server, or tap All to link every BLACKOUT server you've played on.
4 · Done. The Killfeed Certified role is added automatically.

Good to know

• Alt accounts: link them the same way to earn cash and bounties on them too.
• Started on a new server? Run /username link again and pick it.

The form

X and Z · where the order spawns. Use Game coords from iZurvive, not GPS (hold on the map to copy them), or use /location to get your exact spot.
Y · leave it empty on open ground. Inside a building or on a roof, use /location and enter the Y it gives you, or the order spawns under the floor.
Quantity · up to 10.
Server alias · the server you play on, e.g. EU1 or US2.

Good to know

• Orders spawn after the next server restart.
• Kits that list a wooden roadblock marker come with one, so you can spot the drop.
• Check your coords before you submit. Orders can't be cancelled, and wrong coords aren't refunded.
• Not sure? Grab the free White Armband under Faction Apparel to test your coords first.
• Missing order? Record a video at the spot turning a full 360° and send it in #support-ticket. No video, no refund.
