POI Overview
You’ll need every advantage you can get on this Strike map. Here are the major points of interest. Click “Learn More” at the bottom of each image for additional tips and insights on the POI.
Main Spawn Point: Lobby
The Lobby extends across the main entrance and provides excellent sightlines toward the three main lanes on the map. Adjacent to the Coat Check, there are plenty of opportunities for flanking maneuvers, just beware of the heated surprise as you exit and burst into the Main Exhibit.
Tactical Location: Main Exhibit
The Main Exhibit is a playground for every type of gameplay. Short, medium, and long ranged fights are bound to break out during every second of Face Off gameplay. Meanwhile, some of the most strategic moves are going to go down here during a Gunfight match. Use the large art piece to outsmart your enemies.
Main Spawn Point: Gallery
A little different than the Lobby, the Gallery still holds the same basic principles when approaching the enemy off the spawn. Watch the three lanes but try not to get caught in the center of the map too early. There is relatively more cover in the Gallery, so use this to your advantage and let the enemy come to you. Watch out for the grenades coming over the top of the western wall.

Swift success: If you’re going to cross the Main Exhibit, you better be fast. Getting from one of the spawns to the center art installation is key. If you can hold the approaching angles and take control of the flanks, your team will be on the offensive.
Choke the Coat Check: Both the Coat Check and the Exhibition Room exit into the center of the map through a single door. Keep an eye on this doorway to stop the enemy team from approaching your spawn before it’s too late.
Lean on your Loadout: Heirloom may be a Strike map, but it makes every type of Loadout extremely viable. Play to your Loadout’s strength and Heirloom will reward you greatly.
Advanced Map Tips
Long Shot Lane — Alpha (A)
There are several ways to cover the doors from the Exhibition Room or the Coat Check, but utilizing the short cover from the display down the long side of the wall is a great strategy. Standing there too long will mean your end; however, if you use it while your team covers your back, you may rack up a nice score or at the very least stop the enemy push.
Alley Oop — Beta (B)
Get your explosives over the wall. Sure, Heirloom is an indoor map, but if you look up, there’s a small gap from either spawn toward the center Main Exhibition that allows for some great surprise aerial attacks. This makes Frags, Thermo Grenades, and Molotovs extremely useful on Heirloom. The further from the wall you can throw it and get it over, the better chances you’ll have of getting a kill without putting yourself in too much danger.
Map Focused Loadouts
Become an elimination artist using these suggested Loadouts made for Heirloom.
The Artist
SMG, Recon Combat Specialty
You’re fast, and with the PP-919, you’ll fire even faster. Use the information from the Recon Combat Specialty to find your targets fast. If you need to use all of the throwables you can because the odds are, you’re going to hit a target or two. The speed at which you can get to the next POI, the more info you’ll have, just beware of running directly into an overwhelming situation.
Lane Security
Sniper Rifle
Sniper Rifles are strong and can hold a choke point extremely well. Looking down the lanes across the map with your scope could be the perfect answer to a fast-moving and dominating enemy team. If you can lock down the enemy spawn or any rotations from flanking your team’s position, you can own part of the map. Drop your Field Upgrades as soon as you earn them to keep your survivability high and deter any opponents attempting to take out your sniper position.
Full Throttle
Shotgun / SMG
The all-around all-star on Heirloom is the player that can do it all. Obviously, you’ll need to work with your team to achieve the win, but with this Loadout you can support in any position. For some of the longer lanes, you have an Assault Rifle that will have no problem with cross-map eliminations, however for everything else, you’ll have the all-new Maelstrom to blast any enemy trying to come for your friendlies.
Museums are full of important artifacts, join the ranks and become the most important asset to your team by utilizing these strategies and making sure the enemy doesn’t see you coming. Don’t let this intel fall into the wrong hands, and remember:
