ANGEL
CITY
When the IMC instituted martial law in Angel City, massive walls
were built and a system of security checkpoints was created to
divide the city into many smaller districts. The unfortunate residents
of the Harbor District, now unable to move freely throughout the
city, are only able to view the glittering skyline from afar. Pilots
fighting in the city gravitate to the highly accessible rooftops, using
them to cross entire city districts without ever touching the ground.
Red represents the highest concentrations of
minion deaths on this composite heat map.

TACTICS
››This wall run in the Courtyard to access the
third level of the Market is a great escape route
as the Courtyard is a high-traffic area. This
wall run also works extremely well to attack an
enemy Pilot in the third level of the Market and
to get to the roof quickly.
››Controlling the roof of the Market allows you
to oversee the Courtyard and the road around
it. Keep an eye on these choke points to pick
off fighting minions and enemy Pilots. It is also
a great location to fire upon enemy Titans from
above, because you can retreat down any of
the four openings leading to the third level of
the Market for cover.
››The Up Mart is another favorable spot for Pilots
to kill minions down below in the streets while
also having a great overview of the map to
spot enemy Pilots. The Up Mart has many ways
to wall jump to the top of the roof, so keep
moving around and never stay in one location.
››The Market is a great spot to use the EVA-8
Shotgun and Active Radar Pulse. You can clear
out minions that frequently roam the bottom
floor, as well as use your Tactical Ability to find
Pilots above and wall jump up in the center
of the Market to get as close as possible for
the kill.
››With all the buildings near the center of the
city, this area is easily seen from many rooftops
on the map and is asking to be attacked by
Anti-Titan weapons and Arc Grenades. Be
cautious of using your Titan’s dashes—save
your dashes to escape the city once enemy
Pilots begin dealing damage to you.
››Pilots need to patrol the Storage for enemies.
This area can spawn many minions, allowing
you to set up an ambush on an unsuspecting
enemy Pilot.
››When playing as the Militia, controlling the
Angel Apartments near the IMC initial spawn
will provide you with many minion kills. You will
find enemy Pilots spawning in this area quite
often unless your team pushes to close to their
spawn.

ANGEL CITY
TACTICS
››The most effective strategy to win is controlling
Hardpoints B and C. Hardpoint C is accessible
by Titans, making it easy to capture. Once
both are captured, move a Titan to help defend
Hardpoint B. Since Hardpoint C is accessible by
Titans, you have time to retreat back when you
notice the opposing team is trying to capture it.
››Inside the third level of the Market where you
capture Hardpoint B is a box that can be used
to defend against the opposing team when the
objective is under your control. Crouch behind
the box and get an easy kill when an enemy
Pilot walks by. Don’t stay here if you take
down an enemy Pilot—move from spot to spot,
keeping the enemy guessing where you are
going to be next.
››Before running into Hardpoint B, scale the
building to make it to the roof. On top you will
notice openings to drop down towards the
objective. Pay attention to your hit markers as
you throw grenades in corners to injure or kill
enemies before dropping in.
››Hardpoint B’s capture radius is large and gives
you many places to hide and move while
capturing the area. Watch a specific set of
windows and stairway instead of moving around
from one side of the building to the other. If
you see the Hardpoint is contested, then turn
around and find the lurking Pilot.
››Careful when pushing to Hardpoint A with a
Titan. This narrow street can be a death trap if
you don’t have a friendly Titan on the streets or
a friendly Pilot backing you up on the roofs.
››When defending Hardpoint A, equip the Tier 1
kit Explosives Pack and equip Frag Grenades.
Spot the direction your enemies will come from
and throw your grenades at the windows when
they try to jump in. If they survive the explosion
they will be so weak that you can easily finish
them off.
PRO TIP: WALSHY
Hide in the long, open crate inside Hardpoint C to
capture the point and catch enemies off guard. Watch
the garage door closest to you until the Hardpoint on
your HUD says the area is contested, indicating the
enemy entered from a different entrance. Then move
from one side of the open crate to the other side until
the enemy Pilot is exposed.

TACTICS
PRO TIP: FLAMESWORD
Work with a teammate Titan to bait an enemy in
for a 2vs1. You or your Titan friend can hide behind
a building or structure while the other Titan looks
vulnerable and weak to draw in the enemy Titan,
letting it think it has the upper hand. When the
enemy Titan gets near the structure, you and your
teammate aggressively attack the enemy Titan to
dominate it in 2vs1.
››Spreading out is a must. Gain control of the
Market’s cross streets and make the enemy
Titans funnel in through the narrow entrances.
››Cluster Missile and Rocket Salvo are ideal for
dishing out as much damage as possible to all
the enemy Titans that are sure to be next to
each other on these confined streets.
››This map allows for multiple primary weapons
to shine. Choose the one that best fits your
style. If you want to sit back, go with the Plasma
Railgun. If you are the aggressive type, you
can’t go wrong with the 40mm Cannon.
››Although it is tempting, refrain from attempting
a rodeo attack on an enemy Titan. Other enemy
Titans are sure to be close by to shoot you off.
Go for a rodeo attack on an enemy Titan if it is
alone or is the last enemy Titan left.
››A great time to deploy an Auto-Titan is when
you are near a building. As a Pilot, you’re able
to jump to the top of a building and attack
alongside your Auto-Titan, dealing double the
damage to enemy Titans.
