Teabag Prevention: Noble Map Pack Week 3 – Breakpoint
This is the third and final map of the Noble Map Pack series. Make sure to check out our last two articles, Anchor 9 and Tempest, if you haven’t already. Let’s go to the station, get a ticket, find out it’s cash only and then go to the ATM, then get back to the ticket booth, pay for the ticket then get on this motherflippin gravy train!
Breakpoint certainly is the largest map of the three. Going in to this map, you’re likely going to be playing Invasion or CTF. Due to this high possibility, you’re going want to make sure you know where all the power weapons are, so that you may be able to take down Wraiths and Banshees alike.You’ll become what we like to call “the human weapon.”
THIS WEEK: BREAKPOINT

TIP #1 – HIGH FLIERS
At the start of each Slayer/CTF match on this map, you will see a number of players either Roll or Sprint towards the stationary Banshee. you may even see the losers of said race shoot at your teammate in the Banshee if you’re playing with complete jerks. This Banshee then goes towards the middle of the map to have a dogfight with the enemy Banshee. Only one will prevail.
If this battle isn’t over within the first 30 seconds of playtime, it’s up to you and your team to deal some damage on the enemy Banshee.
If you and your team are successful in destroying the enemy Banshee at the start of the match, you won’t have to run indoors or in caves as if Nazgûls are roaming the skies. If you secure ‘Laser and Rockets’, you’ve paved the path to unmatched air support… if you’re good with them. Make sure to never take really important weapons unless you’ll actually be able to use them at the appropriate times (and well.)
TIP #2 – TUNNEL OF LOVE
Battles fought in this tunnel can last seconds or minutes depending on the willpower of the team. By willpower we mean ability to not try and Rambo everything and by team, we mean you. The tunnel is curved and long enough for mid-ranged combat. It’s best to go into these battles with a DMR, which you can find inside your base. Keep in mind that there are Needlers off to the side of the tunnel, as well as a Plasma Pistol.
Remember that ALL vehicles can fit inside the tunnel, and if a huge one happens to enter, you better have the firepower to destroy it before it wipes you all out. (Protip: Grenade Launcher disables vehicles with its EMP blast.)
TIP #3 – WHERE THE SNIPERS ROAM
Since this is a big map, there are a number of sniper hideouts. Among the most popular and best are the following:
The Ridge: Yes, you can see almost the entire map from this point, but the entire map can also see you.
On Top of Blue Base: This nest provides cover and Health Packs when needed. Just take a few steps back to retrieve both.
Wraith Spawn: This is an excellent place to Camo-Snipe. When they come knocking at your door, they won’t exactly know where you’re at. Just keep a Shotgun handy.
Do this, friends, and dominate this map pack. *Releases a flock of exploding doves*
