Arriving at the special zone, I could see that many teams had already gathered in the area. They had either been camping nearby or had started making their way here early, likely because they had lost hope in winning through conventional resource gathering.
Emmet and several other team members immediately wanted to charge forward and claim circles, but I held up my hand to stop them.
"Wait," I commanded firmly.
We were positioned at a distance that made it difficult for the other teams to clearly see us while still allowing us to observe the tactical situation.
"We're losing Crest Marks every minute we stand here!" one team member complained urgently. "We don't know how many they've already generated!"
"Yeah, we should move in now before all the good positions are taken," another added with obvious frustration.
I raised my hand to calm them down. "Relax. These Crest Marks aren't going to disappear. We need to be strategic about this."
