Level Overview
Core to EXFIL Walkthrough
- Run the direct Core route once before adding Terminal, Murmur or DMND detours.
- Use the first successful clear to mark the safest enemy packs, Core order and EXFIL approach.
- After the basic line is stable, add scoring actions only where they feed ZONE or prevent late-route pressure.
Terminal Location
Enter the north-most tower from the start and climb to the top floor. The terminal is against the wall between the skull banners.

The target is 129,730 CCDA score. Speed protects Time Bonus, but DMND usually needs deliberate scoring: use Dash, Stomp, Spike or Void kills where they are safe, collect Cores cleanly and keep ZONE active through dense scoring sections.
- Build score before the EXFIL push.
- Use movement kills and stomp chains where the route allows it.
- Keep ZONE or Starstruck active through the final scoring stretch.
