Locations

Note: If you are having trouble with finding the locations listed here, see the Helpful overview section to see their exact position marked on the map.

Control Point 3

  • ClockTower: The Clocktower serves as the middle control point. It is accessed from the sides with openings in the front and back for fire. There is a small platform above for jumping classes and a small health kit. Directly beneath the point is a pool of lava with a Large health kit cauldron on a small platform.
  • Shacks: On each of the four corners of the Bell Tower are small wooden shacks that can be used as cover.
  • Valley: One of the ways to get to the middle control point is to go through the Valley, a relatively open area that leads from the second and the fourth control point to the middle one.
  • Cafe: Another way to reach control point 3 is to head through the Cafe, a large stone buildings which are in front and behind the Bell Tower.
  • Chokepoints: The main entrance to the middle point for both teams.

Control Point 2 & 4

  • Deteriorated Clocktower: Both teams have a worn-down clock tower that serves as the second and fourth control points.
  • Platforms:On the left of the clocktower (or the right when looking from the attacking team perspective) is a wooden platform that leads into the Valley.
  • Staircase: Just behind the clocktower is a set of stairs that lead down to the tunnel.
  • Wooden Warehouse: Further behind the clocktower is the Warehouse, a giant three-story structure that acts as a gate from the last point to the second/fourth one and reverse.

Control Point 1 & 5

  • Control point platform: This is the location of the first/fifth control point.
  • Elevation: To the left of the lava pit (from defending team side) is an elevated platform that overlooks the point.
  • Crates: On the right of the capture point is a set of barrels and crates.
