Cauldron Observations (Destiny)

That capture point is right behind the "Alter" in the center B room.

I'm a terrible player (as red robber's data mining can attest), but I've run with some pretty good players and I've picked up a few tips for Cauldron:

If you spawn on C side, you have a definite advantage - you can get to the center room much quicker than the other team. Get in there, stay put and cover the doors. As long as you stay out of the sniper lanes, you can control the room and force the other team to come to you.

If you spawn on A side, don't just rush the center room (they're expecting it). We found success with the team running past A, through the Back heavy room to the green C room and beyond (coordinating a rush from the C door, C lower door and/or bridge). Lead with grenades.

If/when you kill one of the enemy, your next step depends on where the orb is. If it's outside the room, quickly rush the other team - they're down a man and distracted by the revive (this only works if you're quick and going as a 3-on-2 group). If the orb is inside the room, stay put and be ready for the rush.
