Functionality

Functionality[]

The Siege Cannon has two uses: Attacking Opponents, and launching a player long distances. The Siege Cannon has one seat, and works similar to a Pirate Cannon. The player can shoot a projectile, which will deal damage. The player can also lock inside the cannon, then trigger the cannon to shoot, and be launched out at a high speed. The player will then land safely, but cannot control their character unless they deploy their glider or land.

Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.
  • If you ping a location less than 250 meters away, the horizontal and vertical lines will have a ping icon on them. If you center both the icons, the cannon will strike that exact location.
  • Siege Cannons deal high structure damage. Use this to your advantage by obliterating buildings enemy players can hide in.
  • You can hide in a Siege Cannon by locking yourself in it without launching.
  • When an enemy is shooting at your Siege Cannon, immediately lock in to avoid direct damage.
