Prebrief
Stitch and the team arrive in Avalon, slipping into the shadows of an underground nightclub to discuss business. The neon lights flicker as they form a plan to break the Pantheon codenames, but the meeting is cut short when Pantheon agents storm in.
Show off your best moves on the dance floor while dodging shots and flanking targets down the sides where VIP seating offers partygoers a chance to rest and order a drink from the Bar. Ambush passing enemies from the DJ booth and break through the shattered facades on the walls before escaping down the halls.

POI Overview
You’ll need every advantage you can get on this 6v6 & 2v2 map. Click or tap “Learn More” at the bottom of each image for additional tips and insights on each POI.
Main Spawn Point: Bar (North)
The Bar is a mostly open hangout spot for people to mingle and roam, so there’s minimal cover aside from the bar itself. Try using the corners of the room or the bar to fire upon any approaching enemies.

Drill the dance floor: Drill Charges go a long way on Eclipse. Most of the map is surrounded by walls adjacent to a well-trafficked location. Use your radar and communicate with your team to gain an idea of where you might be able to toss a Drill Charge and eliminate some enemies on the other side.
Platform perch: The Platform near the middle of the map provides Operators with some elevation and general control of the center lane. Lock it down with a Trophy System and some teamwork to secure domination over the B Zone, and eventually the win.
Perimeter perspective: Most of the Dance Floor can be seen from surrounding windows and passageways, or from the Platform and DJ Booth. As you make your way through the Lounge or the VIP area, take a peek toward the center of the map every now and again, as you’re likely to spot an enemy.
Advanced Map Tips
Double Layer — Alpha (A)
The DJ Booth and the Platform are on roughly the same elevation plane, which allows for a direct view from one location to the other. Fighting for control of this sightline is important, so break out the Marksman Rifles and LMGs to lock down the Dance Floor vantage before attempting to capture the Domination Zone. If you can cover your teammates from here, it’s a viable strategy when attempting to control the map center. Utilize as much equipment as possible, because you’re going to need it.
Prepare for Spawn Flips — Beta (B)
As with any respawn mode, it’s important to pay attention to your teammates’ positions on the map to anticipate enemy respawns. On Eclipse, attention to the flow of the map is especially important due to its narrow corridors and blind spots. If you’re not paying attention to enemy movement, your six can be exposed rather quickly. Keep your head on a swivel and make sure you watch your teammates’ backs. It’s also useful to drop a Scrambler when you can to keep the enemy from gathering intel on your position or respawn locations.
Map Focused Loadouts
Party on the Dance Floor and take your turn on the 1s and 2s as you lay down heavy fire on the enemy position with these helpful Loadouts.
Bouncer
Shotgun, Enforcer Combat Specialty
Every nightclub needs a bouncer. This Loadout is designed to move swiftly from zone to zone and eliminate enemies attempting to take control just as quickly. Be sure to drop a Scrambler before you head into territory with heavy enemy activity. Move on their six and dominate before the opposition even knows you’re there.
Dancing Lights
SMG, Recon Combat Specialty
Be the light of the party! With Tactical Expert and the Assault Pack, you can toss Flashbangs until your arms get tired. Use your lightweight speed to close the gap on your opponents. Once they’ve been blinded, any ranged firepower they have becomes limited, giving you time to get into SMG range. Begin fights with the Drill Charge in combination with the Flashbang to ensure you’re attacking with the advantage.
Confetti Cannon
LMG
Give the enemy a shocking surprise with nothing but electricity and a furious payload of rounds. If you’re the type of player that specializes in denying the enemy’s advancement in a map, the Confetti Cannon Loadout is for you. Load up the XMG with enough attachments to fire it with laser precision across the room and give your opponent something to think about before entering your space. Even if you’re not earning a ton of eliminations with this Loadout, you’re likely to support your team well enough to secure the win.
