Ying · Emerald Plains 1F
2 bomb sites on this floor share one plan.
Draft – not yet verified in-gamePlaying soloJust you and random teammates — a simple plan
Be one of the first into the bomb room — with a teammate right behind you.
Your gadget: Candelas. Cluster flash devices that can be thrown or cooked through soft walls.
Lounge / Bar
- Go this way: Gardens → Stock window
- Go this way: Gardens → Pool wall
- Danger — an enemy often holds here: Bar anchor behind the counter
- Go this way: Push through the breach into Bar
- 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
- Go this way: Back Entrance → East Fountain
- Go this way: Front Yard → Lobby → Ninety
- Danger — an enemy often holds here: Pantry anchor (sees Kitchen and Dining)
- Go this way: Push through the breach into Kitchen
- Plant the defuser here: Kitchen, near the Fireplace wall
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 go in alone. Wait for a teammate.
- Don’t rush in before someone has checked the room with a drone.
- 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
Take the first fight in site.
Team goal: Take the rooms next to the site, open one reinforced wall and hit the anchors from two sides plus the floor above.
Entry (your main job)
Swing the breach or the Pool / East Fountain door with a trade partner right after it opens.
With Candelas: Throw or stick a Candela into site through the breach just before the push so defenders are flashed as your team enters.
Plant support (if the team needs it)
Cover the planter from the breach; after the plant, spread to the hold spots and deny the doors.
With Candelas: Keep one Candela for the plant: flash defenders peeking the planter.
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).
Lounge / Bar — team map
- Move: Gardens → Stock window
- Move: Gardens → Pool wall
- Enemy likely: Bar anchor behind the counter
- Move: Push through the breach into Bar
- Plant: Bar, on the Stock side
- Plant: Lounge (backup), near the Pool door
- Hold: Stock, watching the breach
- Hold: Pool, holding the doors
- Drone: Drone Bar through the Stock door
- Vertical: Hatch from 2F Trophy drops into Bar
- Vertical: 2F Admin floor above Lounge
- Enemy likely: Lounge anchor
- Hard breach: Bar wall — breach it from Stock
- Hold: Ninety (flank)
- 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
- Take the west side: one player goes into Stock, two go to the Pool wall from the Gardens.
- One player goes up the Exterior Stairs to the 2F Terrace and takes Trophy, above Bar.
- The anti-gadget player clears the Bar wall from Stock, then the hard breacher opens it.
- Push Bar from the breach and the Pool door at the same time; Trophy opens the hatch.
- 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
Dining / Kitchen — team map
- Move: Back Entrance → East Fountain
- Move: Front Yard → Lobby → Ninety
- Enemy likely: Pantry anchor (sees Kitchen and Dining)
- Move: Push through the breach into Kitchen
- Plant: Kitchen, near the Fireplace wall
- Plant: Dining (backup), near the Ninety wall
- Hold: Fireplace, watching the breach
- Hold: East Fountain, holding the Kitchen door
- Hold: Ninety, watching Dining
- Drone: Drone Kitchen and Pantry
- Vertical: Hatch from the 2F Private Gallery into Dining
- Vertical: 2F Ceramic floor above Kitchen
- Hard breach: Kitchen wall — breach it from Fireplace
- Hard breach: Dining wall — breach it from Ninety
- 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
- Enter from the Back Entrance and the Lobby; take East Fountain, Fireplace and Ninety.
- One player clears the 2F rooms above (Ceramic and the Private Gallery) for vertical.
- The anti-gadget player clears the Kitchen wall from Fireplace, then the hard breacher opens it.
- Push Kitchen through the breach and the East Fountain door while Ninety watches the Dining door.
- 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
- Throwing Candelas without teammates ready to enter.
- Swinging alone into a smoked breach.
- Everyone standing in site after the plant.
- 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.
