· Drifter can perform various pillar skips using the Repossess skill.
· It's especially good to learn the wooden pillar resting spots as they are frequently used.
· When using Tornado Slam and Egg, you must reach maximum height before jumping and using the Egg to gain higher altitude.
· The Self-Sac skip is only possible under specific conditions (5 minutes elapsed, no environment logs, no Lunar Wisps/Junk Cubes), and you must look up while falling and aim your body towards the arena, then press the interact key to escape.

· Operator can perform pillar skips using only the Ascent Protocol skill, without items.

· Drifter cannot perform Head Stomper host skips due to hitbox issues.

· With the addition of drone revival in multiplayer, dead TC-280 drones can be used as a slow but effective elevator.
· Survivors must continuously jump to make the drone move with the jump button.
· This method has also been tested in high-ping environments, and scenarios where multiple players perform pillar skips by stepping on a dead TC-280 drone are anticipated.

· Spurr, along with Egg, provides the vertical movement capability needed for pillar skips, making them easier.
· Huntress's Arrow Rain can also perform Spurr skips, similar to Blink.
· Mercenary's alternate M2 skill guarantees Spurr skips even without speed items.
· When performing Chef's Oil Spill skip, it's crucial to gain enough vertical momentum by accelerating outwards from the arena at the last pillar. If your head hits the arena, reset with Oil Spill and try again.
