This map is simply a rehash of Halo's Blood Gulch. It is a rather large map, and so best suited to 6 or more players. Its large size makes it a good location for using vehicles, and by default it contains 2 Banshees, 2 Warthogs, and 2 Ghosts, one of each at each of the two bases.
Locations[edit]
Coagulation features many key locations that you should be aware of. Having you team control certain points is vital.
Red base[edit]
The red base is shadowed by the cliffs and a bit more open then the blue base. There are 2 light vehicle spawns and 1 heavy vehicle spawn. The red base provides more sniping positions then the blue base does. There are rocks behind the red base where the whole map can be seen from a Sniper Rifle. A drawback to the red base is that enemies can assault from the cliffs on the left without much notice. The red base's teleporter provides quick access to cover behind the big tree and a fast route to the caves. To the north of the base are 3 large rocks which provide excellent cover and a Shotgun.
Blue base[edit]
The blue base provides some decent cover from long distance weapons and better options for assault on the red base. Like the red base, the blue base has 2 light vehicle spawns, 1 heavy vehicle spawn, and a Banshee in the bottom floor of the base. The teleporter puts you right inside the rocks, which is the best place on the map to snipe from. You can also control the Overshield much more quickly then then the other team. To the left of the base is a cliff and entrance to the caves. Standing on the cliffs with a Rocket Launcher or Sniper Rifle is a great strategy for base defense. However, enemies can also quietly assault from the cliff as well. To the north of the base are 4 large rocks providing great cover and a Shotgun.
Rocks[edit]
The rocks is one of the best map spots to snipe from, due to all the fantastic cover. This area is most easily accessed from the blue base. An Overshield can be found near a medium-sized rock (great protection for a sniper!) and there is some Rocket Launcher ammo between four rocks near the cliffs. Ghosts can flee to the rocks if under fire from a Warthog gunner and swerve around to counter-attack; Warthogs are usually too big to fit through the rocks towards the back. A bit north of the rocks (toward the center) are three boulders where a Needler can be found.
Caves[edit]
The caves are most easily accessed from the red base's teleporter. Near the teleporter are 3 large trees and a few rocks for cover. Inside the caves is a small stream of water in which you can find the Active Camoflauge powerup. The caves eventually connect to a shadowy cliff which lead to the left of the blue base, and a great spot for assault.
Center[edit]
The center of the map is very dangerous because you are easy to splatter for vehicles and you are an easy shot for any decent sniper. Try to stay away from the center as muchas possible, if you need to cross to the other side you can walk along the cliff along the side of the map or you can take a vehicle. In the center if you follow the clear path you will find a rocket launcher. Get it and get out of there as soon as you can.
Weapons, vehicles, and player spawns[edit]
Strategies[edit]
Glitches and eggs[edit]
If you fly the banshee up the cliffs behind blue base, if you get it right you can stand on top of the cliff, great for sniping.
