Your gadget: Skeleton Key (underbarrel shotgun). Underbarrel shotgun for soft breaching walls and floors from range.

Lounge / Bar

  1. Go this way: Gardens → Stock window
  2. Send your drone here: Drone Bar through the Stock door
  3. Open the floor or hatch here: Hatch from 2F Trophy drops into Bar
  4. Break this strong wall: Bar wall — breach it from Stock
  5. Plant the defuser here: Bar, on the Stock side

Red A/B circles are the two bomb spots. Numbers on the map match this list. Positions are drawn on Ubisoft's official blueprint and are approximate.

Dining / Kitchen

  1. Go this way: Back Entrance → East Fountain
  2. Send your drone here: Drone Kitchen and Pantry
  3. Danger — an enemy often holds here: Pantry anchor (sees Kitchen and Dining)
  4. Open the floor or hatch here: Hatch from the 2F Private Gallery into Dining
  5. Plant the defuser here: Kitchen, near the Fireplace wall

Don’t do this
  • Don’t stand on top of the hole you make — enemies can shoot up at you.
  • Don’t make lots of holes. A few good ones are enough.
  • Playing with strangers? Ping (mark) enemies and walls so your team knows.
Playing with a teamFull plan: every role, drones, breach, plant and what to do if it goes wrong

Hit the anchors from 2F.

Team goal: Take the rooms next to the site, open one reinforced wall and hit the anchors from two sides plus the floor above.

Vertical / soft breach (your main job)

Bar: open the hatch in 2F Trophy. Dining: open the hatch in the 2F Private Gallery; open the Ceramic floor over Kitchen.

With Skeleton Key (underbarrel shotgun): Take the floor above the site, then use the Skeleton Key to open the marked soft floor: make a few focused holes that show the anchors and the plant area, not the whole ceiling.

Anti-gadget (if the team needs it)

Clear Bandit, Kaid or Mute on the marked wall, then any Mira or camera watching the plant.

With Skeleton Key (underbarrel shotgun): Shoot the defender gadgets you can see through the floor holes (shields, cameras, Mute jammers) before the team enters.

Spawn & approach

Stables / Gardens side (west) for Bar / Lounge. Back Entrance (north) or the Front Yard / Lobby (south) for Dining / Kitchen.

  • Bar / Lounge: Stock and the Pool wall from the Gardens, plus the Exterior Stairs to the 2F Terrace and Trophy.
  • Dining / Kitchen: Back Entrance into the Fountain rooms, and the Lobby into Ninety.
  • Clear 2F first on either site — defenders above can open the floor on you and use the hatches.

Drone checklist

  • Bar corners behind the counter and next to the Stock wall.
  • Lounge and Ninety for a defender waiting on the rotate.
  • Pantry — the room defenders want most on Dining / Kitchen.
  • Kitchen, Dining and the 2F rooms above them (Ceramic, Private Gallery).

  1. Move: Gardens → Stock window
  2. Drone: Drone Bar through the Stock door
  3. Vertical: Hatch from 2F Trophy drops into Bar
  4. Vertical: 2F Admin floor above Lounge
  5. Hard breach: Bar wall — breach it from Stock
  6. Move: Gardens → Pool wall
  7. Enemy likely: Bar anchor behind the counter
  8. Enemy likely: Lounge anchor
  9. Move: Push through the breach into Bar
  10. Plant: Bar, on the Stock side
  11. Plant: Lounge (backup), near the Pool door
  12. Hold: Stock, watching the breach
  13. Hold: Pool, holding the doors
  14. Hold: Ninety (flank)
  15. Hard breach: Bar wall from Pool (backup)

Red A/B circles are the two bomb spots. Numbers on the map match this list. Positions are drawn on Ubisoft's official blueprint and are approximate.

Team execute

  1. Take the west side: one player goes into Stock, two go to the Pool wall from the Gardens.
  2. One player goes up the Exterior Stairs to the 2F Terrace and takes Trophy, above Bar.
  3. The anti-gadget player clears the Bar wall from Stock, then the hard breacher opens it.
  4. Push Bar from the breach and the Pool door at the same time; Trophy opens the hatch.
  5. Plant Bar on the Stock side and spread out to the hold spots.

Plant

Plant Bar right after the Stock wall opens, on the Stock side of the room, so the players in Stock and Pool both see the defuser. Lounge is the backup plant from Pool or Ninety.

Post-plant positions

  • Stock, looking through the breach
  • Pool, holding the Bar door
  • Ninety, watching the Lounge side
  • 2F Trophy, playing the hatch over Bar

  1. Move: Back Entrance → East Fountain
  2. Drone: Drone Kitchen and Pantry
  3. Vertical: Hatch from the 2F Private Gallery into Dining
  4. Vertical: 2F Ceramic floor above Kitchen
  5. Enemy likely: Pantry anchor (sees Kitchen and Dining)
  6. Hard breach: Kitchen wall — breach it from Fireplace
  7. Move: Front Yard → Lobby → Ninety
  8. Hard breach: Dining wall — breach it from Ninety
  9. Move: Push through the breach into Kitchen
  10. Plant: Kitchen, near the Fireplace wall
  11. Plant: Dining (backup), near the Ninety wall
  12. Hold: Fireplace, watching the breach
  13. Hold: East Fountain, holding the Kitchen door
  14. Hold: Ninety, watching Dining
  15. Hard breach: Pantry outside wall (from Delivery / Trash)

Red A/B circles are the two bomb spots. Numbers on the map match this list. Positions are drawn on Ubisoft's official blueprint and are approximate.

Team execute

  1. Enter from the Back Entrance and the Lobby; take East Fountain, Fireplace and Ninety.
  2. One player clears the 2F rooms above (Ceramic and the Private Gallery) for vertical.
  3. The anti-gadget player clears the Kitchen wall from Fireplace, then the hard breacher opens it.
  4. Push Kitchen through the breach and the East Fountain door while Ninety watches the Dining door.
  5. Plant Kitchen (or Dining from Ninety) and hold from Fireplace, Ninety and 2F.

Plant

Plant Kitchen near the Fireplace wall once it is open, so Fireplace and East Fountain cover it. Dining is the backup: plant it close to the Ninety wall so Ninety and the 2F hatch see the defuser.

Post-plant positions

  • Fireplace, looking through the breach
  • East Fountain, holding the Kitchen door
  • Ninety, watching Dining
  • 2F Private Gallery, playing the hatch over Dining

Pitfalls

  • Opening so much floor that defenders below get easy vertical angles on you.
  • Playing vertical alone with no one covering the stairs behind you.
  • Standing on the hatch with a defender right under it.
  • Clearing too early and giving the defenders time to put gadgets back.
  • Going into 1F without clearing 2F above — both 1F sites are covered from the floor above.
  • Ignoring Pantry on Dining / Kitchen: the defender there sees both rooms.
  • Pushing Bar only through Pool — it is the door the defenders watch first.

If defenders…

  • If the Bar wall from Stock is denied, open the Pool wall instead and plant Lounge from Pool.
  • If Pantry is stacked, skip Kitchen: open the Dining wall from Ninety and plant Dining.
  • If defenders hold 2F hard, take it slowly with three players and only then go down.
