How To be an Effective Engineer on Iwo Jima

Guide to help you play as an effective engineer on the map Iwo Jima nd help your team more.

Match Start

So at the match begining, obviously choose the engineer class, choose the weapons your gunna use and wait for the game to begin.

Step 2

Imediately run towards B, you want to be closest to the objectives when the time comes right? Thats going to be the key here, to be ready, try your best not to die, if your palying against mostly ai you will probably make it, if your not, watch out for fire coming from the MG's on the hills or in between the rocks, etc.

On the way there try to blow up some obstacles to get some extra points, make sure no dumbass bots run into them though.

Continue down the path(s) to B and fight to capture it.

B Captured

After Objective B is captured head up this little crevice here the rail cars are on the train tracks, fight your way up.

Stock up at this Ammo Refill, Pick up the other demolitions there, you will need them

It is of upmost importance not to be killed at this point so try your best not to die.

Once your stocked up head up the hill here where the entrace to the AA guns are,But do not go up yet head to the wooden bunker off to the right there.

Take refuge in the bunker, make sure even before this that you have not been seen going in by enemy soldiers because they might throw a grenade or something in there.

Stay in here until A is captured by your allies, i know it might seem kinda ♥♥♥♥♥♥ but just stay in there, dont try to kill enemies by poking out of there too or else they'll find you and kill ya and youll have to start all over.

Moment of Truth, A Captured

Once A has been Captured, now comes the actual duty, Once you get the notification of it being captured jump right out of the bunker and head straight for D, the closest one, kill any lingering enemies on the way, watch for enemies on the hill above and behind the sandbags.

Watch out at this point because their might be enemies hiding at the opening to D, and there will be most likely soldiers inside of it, but dont worry, most of the time their just bots and they dont shoot very fast or realize whats happening anyway.

When your at about this point pull out the Satchel charge and light it up, once its ready to be thrown run towards the entrance, Remember that you CAN run with a lit charge just dont hold on for too long

Run inside and through it in, make sure you throw it high enough that it will clear the little wall right there, as long as it clears that wall it will destroy that gun, keep in mind that satchels arent grenades so they are not as light.

Now RUN out dont linger dont shoot anything just run out, immediately they will try to kill you, remember, speed is important here and you want to stay alive through all this.

Final Run, E point

This is your final run now, D has been destroyed and now E is the only destroyable objective left, head to E. Make sure to take the low side do not take the left entrances you will have a greater chance of being killed going through there so go right, while you are going watch out for enemies hanging by the destroyed bunker up on the little ledge eliminate them beacuase thats where your going next.

Once your there get to the wall facing E, you can choose either side left or right, left side will keep you protected from the bunkers on the hill and will allow you to kill enemies at the entrance, right side will allow you to kill enemies hiding in the mine opening but watch out for the bunker nad ledges on your righthandside.

Now once you are clear run to E, imediately pull out the other satchel you picked up at the ammo cache earlier and ignite it.

Run in and throw it in

Immediately get out of there, take shelter in the mineshaft opening as it will protect you from enemy from coming from the hill above.

Finale

After that has been completed you are now done with your job and are free to kill and die as you please.


*Side note, If you are extremely confident in your skills, tell all your teammates to focus on C and that you got D and E covered, if they comply, you guys will fly right through this and will have plenty of time left over to take objective F, which is the final and most vigorously defended objective there.

[Gonzo]

Bobby traps are common in the entrance of D and E, so try and shoot them or throw a grenade next to them.

Thanks, But I realized I've already unlocked it long before, I think it's because I usually play Sniper, Rifleman or Mortar.

[Garmo]

Yes and it also is only for engineers, flamers, and squad leaders/TL I believe.

[thefockewulf]

If you bought the deluxe edition then you get the shotgun automatically

[✦ Comrade Nina ✦]

It might sound odd and I'm probably a big noob but how do you unlock the Trench Gun?

[Garmo]

Pretty nice guide. And It's nice to see someone do this as 2 days ago on the 19th marked 71 years later of when the US Marines first landed on Iwo Jima
