How to attack Border 2F
The top-floor site runs across the north of 2F: Armory Lockers in the west, Archives in the east, with the Red Hallway between them. Defenders reinforce the Archives walls and the West Balcony side and hold Offices and Fountain early. Attackers take the east rooms first, breach Archives from the south and threaten Armory from the West Balcony.
Take Offices and Fountain, open Archives from the Offices Hallway and add a second angle from the west side.
Roles
Hard breach
Breach the Archives ↔ Offices Hallway wall east of the door (orange line). The small wall from the West Balcony into the room beside Armory Desk is the backup for an Armory plant.
Anti-gadget
Clear breach denial on the Archives wall, then any ADS or Mira before utility goes in.
Vertical / soft breach
Open the Archives east wall from the North Balcony side if it is left soft, and make shoot-through holes around Fountain and the Offices Hallway.
Intel
Drone Offices, Fountain and Archives first; call the Mira and the Armory anchor.
Entry
Swing Offices and Fountain with a trade partner, then push the Archives breach.
Flank watch
Hold the east Red Hallway / East Stairs behind the team and watch the Red Hallway column that leads to the Main Stairs.

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
- Come up the East Stairs into the east Red Hallway; one player takes the Balcony Stairs to the North Balcony.
- Clear Offices and Fountain, and drone Archives and the Red Hallway between the two sites.
- The anti-gadget player clears the Archives ↔ Offices Hallway wall; the hard breacher opens it.
- Push Archives through the breach while a West Balcony player pressures Armory.
- Plant Archives and spread to the hold spots.
Plant
Plant Archives right behind the Offices Hallway breach, so the Offices Hallway and Fountain players both cover it. Armory Lockers is planted from Armory Desk once the Armory anchors are dead.
Post-plant
- Offices Hallway, looking through the breach
- Fountain
- Red Hallway (east) / East Stairs (flank)
- West Balcony, watching Armory
Pitfalls
- Walking the east Red Hallway without droning Fountain.
- Opening holes for noise instead of angles.
- Letting the West Balcony side go unwatched.
If defenders…
- If the Archives wall is denied, pinch Armory from the West Balcony and plant Armory Lockers.
- If Offices is stacked, take it with flashes and frags before anything else.
