Northridge High Tier/Middle Tier
[High Tier] Northridge Hotel

Located south of the map center, it is Northridge's most intense battle zone. Enemy NPCs and players gather here, so it's best to avoid it if you're not used to combat. The risk is high, but there are many supply spots, making it easy to aim for high-value raids.
[Middle Tier] Cable Car Station

A landmark located in the north of the map, introduced in Season 2. It has many supply spots and a free safe. It is the second most popular spot after Northridge Hotel.
[Middle Tier] Communication Station

Located on the west side of the map, it has a safe that can be looted even without a key. When entering the Communication Station, you pass through an open area, so be wary of enemy preemptive attacks.
[Middle Tier] Sewage Treatment Plant

Located on the east side of the map, it has a safe that can be looted even without a key. Enemy NPCs often spawn outside the Sewage Treatment Plant. To avoid being targeted by other players during combat, fight while using cover to break lines of sight.
