CCTV / Vault Checkpoint

Draft – not yet verified in-game
Playing soloJust you and random teammates — a simple plan
Your mission

Find where the enemies are hiding and tell your team.

Your gadget: EE-ONE-D. Drone scan that reveals defenders who move while it is active.

  1. Go this way: Lockers Stairs → Lockers → Server
  2. Send your drone here: Drone Vault, Checkpoint and Keys
  3. Danger — an enemy often holds here: Keys / Checkpoint anchor
  4. Plant the defuser here: Checkpoint, on the Vault 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.

Don’t do this
  • Don’t lose your drone in the first seconds — hide it in a corner.
  • Don’t keep what you see to yourself. Tell your team or ping it.
  • 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

Find the anchors and the Server rotator.

Team goal: Take Construction, open the reinforced Vault wall and plant Checkpoint, with a second player pinching through Server and one playing the 1F hatches.

Intel (your main job)

Drone Keys, Checkpoint, Default and Server. Call where each defender is before the breach.

With EE-ONE-D: Fire the scan right as the team starts the final push (or the plant) so defenders who reposition get revealed.

Plant support (if the team needs it)

Cover the planter from Vault. After the plant, hold Construction and 30 and deny the Server door.

With EE-ONE-D: Save a scan for post-plant: defenders trying to defuse must move and get pinged.

Spawn & approach

Crane or Ruins side for the Yellow Stairs and Construction. Façade side for the Lockers Stairs player.

  • Enter 1F on the Crane / Ruins side and take the Yellow Stairs down into Construction.
  • Send one player down the Lockers Stairs (Façade side) to clear Lockers and Server — the defenders' rotate room.
  • Keep one player on 1F to open the Bathroom hatch over CCTV and to cut rotations from Poker and Bar.

Drone checklist

  • Vault and Checkpoint — anchors usually hide in Keys or behind the Checkpoint desk.
  • Default and 30, where a defender can shoot the Vault breach from the side.
  • Server, the link between CCTV and Checkpoint.
  • Yellow Stairs and Construction early — a roamer often sits there to waste your time.

  1. Move: Lockers Stairs → Lockers → Server
  2. Drone: Drone Vault, Checkpoint and Keys
  3. Enemy likely: Keys / Checkpoint anchor
  4. Enemy likely: Server rotator
  5. Plant: Checkpoint, on the Vault side
  6. Hold: Construction, watching the breach
  7. Hold: 30, watching Default
  8. Move: Yellow Stairs → Construction
  9. Move: Green Stairs → Break → Cash (CCTV side)
  10. Vertical: 1F Bathroom hatch drops into Weapons, next to CCTV
  11. Vertical: 1F Pink hatch drops into Dropper, next to Screens
  12. Hard breach: Vault wall — breach it from Construction
  13. Move: Push through Vault into Checkpoint
  14. Hold: Yellow Stairs (flank from 1F)
  15. Hard breach: CCTV wall — backup breach from Cash
  16. Hard breach: Default wall — open from 30 for a second angle

Team execute

  1. Three players come down the Yellow Stairs into Construction. One player takes the Lockers Stairs from the Façade side to check Lockers and Server.
  2. Drone Vault, Checkpoint, Keys and Default. Find the anchor before anyone breaches.
  3. The anti-gadget player clears the Vault wall from Construction; the hard breacher opens it.
  4. Push Vault from the breach while the Server player pinches from the north and a fifth player plays Default from 30.
  5. Plant Checkpoint and spread to Construction, Vault and 30.

Plant

Plant Vault Checkpoint once the Vault is open, deep in Checkpoint on the Vault side, so players in Vault and Construction both see the defuser. CCTV is the backup plant: open it from Cash and plant it while a teammate plays the 1F Bathroom hatch next door.

Post-plant positions

  • Construction, looking back through the Vault breach
  • Vault, holding the Checkpoint door
  • 30 / Exit, watching the Default side
  • Yellow Stairs (flank from 1F)

Pitfalls

  • Scanning while the team isn’t ready to take advantage of it.
  • Losing your drone on the Yellow Stairs to the roamer.
  • All five standing in Checkpoint after the plant.
  • Pushing the Yellow Stairs with five and ignoring Server — defenders rotate through it.
  • Breaching the Vault without knowing where the Checkpoint anchor is.
  • Leaving the 1F hatches alone: defenders upstairs can also shoot down on your CCTV plant.

If defenders…

  • If the Vault wall stays denied, switch to CCTV: open the Cash wall from the Green Stairs side and plant it with the Bathroom hatch open.
  • If Default is heavily held, open its reinforced wall from 30 instead and push Keys.
  • If Server is empty, bring a second player through Lockers and hit the Vault from the north.
