Epicchickengod Guide to Perilous Port

---

Why Perilous Port?
I have alot of experience on this map. Its probably one of my favourite maps now! The map is one of the most fast paced ive played. The map it self is not very popular compared to Victory Village or Coastal Clash. CTF is probably one of my favorite game modes, although people normally play CTF on Victory Village, Perilous Port does have some perks over VV. Although the large bodies of water makes the map itself less fun, its still recommended to try.

It also because one player can entire change the sides that winning and losing. Whether it be caping he middle flag or being able to get the other sides flag and get your team a win. It shows how much one skilled player can entirely change how the games gonna end, and this map doesnt require a good aim to win on. Playing smartly can give your team a win.

FAQ
Feel free to ask questions :3

Tips

Always get the flag in the middle This is fairly obvious to anyone who has played it long enough. The side that gets the flag in the middle will almost always win. (unless your team has a Commando that camps close to the flag and waits till everyones gone.) Asking yourself to cap the middle flag or not cap it is like saying to be spawn kill or not.

Never charge towards a gunner on this map This map benefits gunners alot, due to the close encouters you will meet, even closer compared to Victory Village.

Do not walk into the open This map is easy to camp on, either be shot by a level 5 Burning Bullets lr smg soldier or get sniped. Heres a list of all the famous camping spots here.

Blasting strike here is like a 100% kill You can blame this due to the massive amounts of water.If any soldiers use blasting strike abit more tatically, will pretty much kill everything.

When you get the flag, do not stay still, because the other side can see all your movements, so your gonna be killed in secs with a permanent mark target on you. Do not think that if you camp on a roof with the flag you can prevent the other side from winning. They will know where you are.

How you should start off

CHARGE towards the middle flag Countless times have i notice the difference between not caping the middle flag and caping it. Gunners are best at caping this flag. Soldiers should blasting strike the other side off the flag. Commandos cant do much on this point. You could go after the flag while they battle for the middle flag.

Did you lose the middle flag?

Dont worry, try to find moments where you can escape the other side and cap it. The middle flag is capped fairly fast. Although if you cant cap it, only an commando can help you win the game.

Tactics

Gunner

Any gunner that knows how to rocket jump will dominate in this map. There are alot of guides on rocket jumping.

Good examples of rocket jumping tutorials.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcTg54enj8M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0ndd52qRnY
After you learn how to rocket jump properly, will greatly help you take out roof/hill campers.

There is an age long debate between Keg or Frenzy fire. On this map, Keg is superior in every aspect, because of massive amount of buildings (to rocket jump on and throw kegs at them) the small map size that forces players into groups (to get a huge damage on them) and take out campers easier.
Frenzy fire is still good and worth investing into, but will only help in 1vs1s.

A gunner that lacks I Eats Grenades on this map is a dead gunner. The amounts of explosive toss everywhere will easily cut alot of your hp. Which is why I Eats Grenades is required to stay alive in a high level game. A team that lacks a single gunner carrying I Eats Grenade is also screwed.

Rocket jumping to a house and spraying with frenzy fire or spamming Kegs is a great way to distract the other side and deal a good chunk of damage. While doing so, getting to the flag by jumping house to house like batman will give you are your team an easy flag capture.

There is alot of water on this map, and due to this Blasting Strike will be extremely dangerous. It is advise for gunners to stay around land and buildings.

Soldier

The Nats side of this map is a realm for Burning Bullet spamming, but that isnt the only purpose for soldiers. As always, Soldiers should have max Combat Medicine to heal other players and themselves.

Soldiers on this map are one of the biggest threats. This is due to Blasting strike, which will blast you and your team into the water. Although even after they use Blasting Strike, they can still hit you alot with their Long Range Pistol.

Between the Grenade Launcher and Single Grenade for explosives, both do a good job on this map. Single Grenade doesnt require too much aiming due to the small map and the Grenade Launcher can deal a good chunk to groups , but the main advantage that the Grenade Launcher has over the Single Grenade is that the Grenade Launcher can be used to get on roofs.

Think when using blasting strike. Its a common problem among soldiers. They will use blasting strike every time they go near someone. NEVER use blasting strike on a flag holder without thinking, there has been many times that ive seen a flag carrier get away because of a soldier that decided to blasting strike him closer to the other side.

Commandos

Whether or not this map is good for Commandos is that what playstyle is the commando playing. Since every playstyle of Commandos are completely different.

Sniper

This is one of the worst maps for a sniper player. Mostly due to the small size of the map. Although the camp spots on this map do give snipers an advantage, but the map size will limit their capabilities. Although fast rifle users will not notice alot of difference since fast rifle users main range is mid like always.

Due to such great camp spots on this map, Most snipers will be staying in one spot for the entire game. Which is a very bad decision. Any gunner that knows how to rocket jump and has I Eats Grenades will come and kill you easily. It is advise to move around and switch camping spots every now and then.

Pistoleers

This map benefits Pistoleers alot. Pistoleers can act like gunners with long range capabilities. with Troop trap jumping, elixir, and Troop traps to use, although they have abilities similar to gunners, they still play somewhat differently due how frail the commando is.

The buildings to Troop trap jump on and the long range pistol make a pistoleer hard to counter. Since you cant tell where the damage is coming from until they you kill them. Which means that you have to jump house to house to avoid people knowing your spot. The advantage that commandos have over gunners is that they can stealth house to house easier.

It is also recommended to stay away from your team, because of the flanking that happens on this map so often, and pistoleer cant hold its own aganist a gunner unless he has bad aim. A pistoleer is simply outclassed by soldier as a team player. So pistoleer should go around alone.

Knifers

Knifers always had a hard time catching up to the other classes, Not only being blasted away, being outsped by even the slowest class, or getting beated up by groups, Perilous Port gave knifers an easier life. This is because the close encounters that happen on this map, and they can knife someone easier because of the massive camping this map can cause.

Even though they have all these perks, knifers are still outclassed by pistoleers in every aspect, which have an Short range pistol that can ohko all classes with the uber version. You should only play knifer in the lower levels.

Routes To Cap The Flag

Royals Side[b]

Gunner is the best class to capture the flag, the fact that gunners can rocket jump on the buildings that surround the flag, and surpirse the other side when you come down and take the flag. If you care for your kdr so much, dont do this cause your probably die in the process.




What you want to do is, camp on a building that are around the flag. The ones that are far away from the Nats hill is better. Be sure that noone sees you while your on the building. 

It is best if you wait till all the nats are away, the you go to the flag, [b]DO NOT USE LEG IT YET , because there will almost always be Troop Traps around the flag, and is recommended to activate i Eats Grenades while going to the flag.

Now you uses your rocket jumping skills and activate leg it, run aside a building, jump at the right moment, and shoot the rocket. this will cause you to go faster and out of the other sides sight. and if you die anyways, the flag will probably be carried by another player. 



Also, to the people who say "Omgz dat wuz set up i reed de shat en dis aent reel u fail!" Its true that this isnt real, but i have done it many times, and you cat expect me to take pics while am trying to play right?

Important spots

On paper, this sounds like a great spot. Seeing a big chunk of the entire map, Path ways that can be guarded easily, close to spots that are normally crowded, not only that, its also a spawn point for the royals , which means nats cant come around without getting killed by another player.

The biggest problem about this map is that almost every where on the map can shoot this spot. Meaning that you wont be able to stay too long until a sniper decides to come around and snipe you.


Similar to the last one, this map gets a good view to the entire map, but can also be shot from almost all spots. The two houses that cover the spot gives it good cover while shooting. You should never stay around this spot too long, because the other side will eventually find out and spam mark target around the area.

:o didnt notice that.


Also guys, it might take some time if i add photos, because my computer is worser than a potato stuck into boiling lava, so either someone helps me make the pictures, or i take them from gameplay vids. Which might take some time ._.

What map should i do next if i finish this one? I was planning Victory Village CTF cause i love Capture the flag mode but am still not very sure, cause VV ctf and PP ctf is pretty much the same thing, rocket jumpng around, cap the middle flag, alot of camping spots, etc.

I need some request for the next map v_v

Guys, is it ok if i take pics in low quality? cause my comp cant handle above normal quality , and is the bug on low quality fixed yet?

[TheeTreeHugger]

Impressive

[abeldabom]

Please make more of those, its awesome. pp is a kinda unused map, maybe you can do riverside rush or something next, i believe 25% of all the servers are vv, so vv would be handy, but not very original.
