Cocktail Lounge / Bar

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

Break open a strong wall so your team can get into the bomb room.

Your gadget: Exothermic Charge. Hard-breach charge that opens a large walk-through hole in a reinforced wall.

  1. Go this way: Roof → New Hatch → Cigar → Piano → corridor
  2. Go this way: Roof → Red Hatch → Red Stairs → Cigar
  3. Danger — an enemy often holds here: Storage anchor
  4. Break this strong wall: Bar wall — breach it from the Piano-side corridor
  5. Plant the defuser here: Bar, behind the counter near the breach

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 use your gadget before a teammate destroys the enemy gadgets on the wall.
  • Don’t stand right in front of the wall when it opens.
  • 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

Open Bar from the Piano side.

Team goal: Win the top of the map (roof, Cigar, Piano), open the reinforced Bar wall from the Piano-side corridor and plant Bar while White Stairs is watched.

Hard breach (your main job)

Stand in the corridor east of Piano on the wall shared with Bar (orange line). Breach on the "clear" call. Backup: the Bar → Cocktail wall once Bar is yours.

With Exothermic Charge: Stack on the marked hard-breach wall, wait for the anti-gadget player to call the wall clear, then place the charge on the centre of the wall. Stand off to the side while it burns — the hole becomes the team’s main entry.

Entry (if the team needs it)

Drop the hatch with a partner, clear Cigar, then swing the Bar breach.

With Exothermic Charge: Once the wall is down, you are often the closest player to site: clear the near corner of the hole with your team, not alone.

Spawn & approach

River Docks (north) or Christmas Market (west) for the roof. Park (south) for the White Stairs player.

  • Climb to the roof and open the Red Hatch (over Red Stairs) and New Hatch (over Cigar Balcony).
  • Take Cigar and Piano together — one player alone gets traded.
  • Send one player up White Stairs to cut the defenders who rotate from 2F.

Drone checklist

  • Cigar and Piano first (early defender holds).
  • Storage and the Cocktail Lounge doorway (common anchor spots).
  • White Corridor and Bathroom for a roamer coming up White Stairs.
  • Behind the Bar counter.

  1. Move: Roof → New Hatch → Cigar → Piano → corridor
  2. Move: Roof → Red Hatch → Red Stairs → Cigar
  3. Enemy likely: Storage anchor
  4. Enemy likely: Cocktail Lounge anchor
  5. Hard breach: Bar wall — breach it from the Piano-side corridor
  6. Move: Push through the breach into Bar
  7. Plant: Bar, behind the counter near the breach
  8. Hard breach: Bar → Cocktail wall (backup, from Bar)
  9. Move: White Stairs → Cocktail Entrance
  10. Vertical: Red Hatch (roof) drops into Red Stairs
  11. Vertical: New Hatch (roof) drops into Cigar Balcony
  12. Drone: Drone Bar and the Cocktail doorway
  13. Hold: Corridor by Piano, watching the breach
  14. Hold: Cigar Balcony, watching Bar
  15. Hold: White Corridor (flank)

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. Two players take the roof and drop the Red Hatch and New Hatch into Red Stairs and Cigar Balcony.
  2. Clear Cigar and Piano together, then hold the corridor next to Piano.
  3. One player comes up White Stairs to White Corridor and Cocktail Entrance.
  4. The anti-gadget player clears the Bar wall on the corridor side, then the hard breacher opens it.
  5. Push Bar from the breach and Cigar Balcony at the same time; plant behind the counter.

Plant

Plant Bar behind the counter, close to the south wall you opened, so the players in the Piano-side corridor and on Cigar Balcony can both see the defuser. Cocktail Lounge is the plant once the Cocktail anchor is dead.

Post-plant positions

  • Piano-side corridor, looking through the breach
  • Cigar Balcony / Wood Stairs, looking into Bar
  • White Corridor / Cocktail Entrance (flank)
  • Red Stairs (flank)

Pitfalls

  • Placing the charge before Bandit/Kaid/Mute is cleared — it gets fried or jammed.
  • Standing in front of the wall where defenders can shoot through the burning hole.
  • Breaching while the Storage anchor still watches the corridor.
  • Pushing Bar while Cocktail is still alive and watching the doorway.
  • Rushing through one hatch into a waiting Cigar defender.
  • Ignoring White Stairs — the easiest flank on 3F.
  • Planting Bar while the Cocktail Lounge anchor is alive and watching.

If defenders…

  • If the Bar wall is denied, take Bar through Cigar Balcony / Wood Stairs and open the Bar → Cocktail wall for Cocktail.
  • If defenders stack Storage, open its walls from the corridor or Bathroom for extra angles.
  • If the roof is locked down, come up Red Stairs and White Stairs instead.
