My favorite is point B on that map. People like to cluster there and then hide behind the metal grate\wall thing when there is trouble.

I like to approach from the center top walkway, and throw a lightning grenade on the opposite wall- it essentially pins them there to fry, especially if you have your Titan's skill tree set to have aftershocks on. If anything does survive, it's an easy clean up.

(Rev History lesson: Since the days of Goldeneye I've always been fascinated by videogame grenade and explosive physics. Learning how to effective use level geometry to bounce grenades and surprise an opponent helped me 'get' geometry and angles in math class.

-bouncing grenades around corners with the GoldenEye grenade launcer or Perfect Dark super Dragon...

-the surface play of grenades in Halo 3, using opposite angles for spike grenades for surprise kills

- learning how to run from an opponent and bounce a grenade behind you as you flee, killing them


I made a LOT of my childhood friends mad haha)

I'm gettin' all nostalgic for those proximity mine games where the map would just be covered in them and when someone finally set them off the whole world burned in a super-slow-mo domino effect. GoldenEye was the best.
