Karachi Hiding Spots

In Broken Apartment

In sector 4E at the center of the map, there will be a building with a broken wall on the second floor that leads to an Apartment where you can hide and shoot from safety. You can reach this area by jumping across from the Cafe Rooftop.

Top of Market Building Roof

Both this Market Building Roof and the Upper Roof of the nearby building are great sniping places that have a clear 360 view of the whole map. Controlling these two spots gives an immediate advantage for your team.

Balcony Along Main Street

There will be two balconies on the second floor in Main Street you can climb into that are perfect camping spots and will provide good cover from enemies walking below.

Apartment Rooftop

Climb up a ladder to get to the Apartment Rooftop. Here, you can hide safely behind a pillar while looking out onto Main Street down below.

Balcony Overlooking Shacks

Behind the Hotel, there is a balcony on the 2nd floor that overlooks the Shacks area. This is a good safe place where you can prone to hide or shoot at anyone passing through the area below.

Corner of Market Place

In the Market Place area at the southern part of the map, there is a corner behind a stall where you can hide and fire at enemies from safety.

In Hotel Room

Inside the Hotel, there is a room where you can hide behind a cabinet and shoot at people on the ground from the window.

Main Street Tunnel

This tunnel is found at the southwestern part of the map. The tunnel will have a small nook where you can hide and possibly surprise enemies running through.

Prepare for Close Quarters Combat

Karachi has a lot of tight areas with lots of corners and indoor areas, so it would be best to equip yourself with high mobility, high fire rate weapons like SMGs.

Take Control of Rooftops

The rooftops at the southeastern part of the map are the ideal spots with high ground and a clear view of large sections of the map. Control these spots for a tactical advantage over everyone running down below.

Shoot From Building Windows

It is not advised to camp at building windows since you can easily be approached from behind. However, take brief glances out of any window you pass by and see if anyone is running along exposed pathways.

Karachi Striker Loadout

Primary Secondary
Striker Renetti
Analysis
・The Striker SMG is one of the best guns for Karachi due to its high mobility, handling, recoil control, and hip-fire accuracy. It has an extremely fast fire rate, allowing you to finish an enemy with 15 to 20 ammo. Since Karachi has lots of narrow corridors with lots of corners, you need a gun for short to medium range firefights, which is what the Striker excels at.
・The Renetti has a lot of versatility, deals decent damage, has decent range and great mobility. It can provide a quick swap when your primary runs out of ammo. With the right mods on the Renetti, it can become a powerful sidearm and can even go up against SMGs. The Infantry Vest synergizes fantastically with the Renetti as well.
