Darkage Cliffs

From PHIGHTING! Wiki

Darkage Cliffs is a map in PHIGHTING!.

Overview

Darkage Cliffs is a symmetrical hybrid map featuring a central area bordered by buildings on three sides, with the fourth side opening to a cliff's edge. Each team spawns on the second floor of opposing buildings. From there, players can exit through the front balcony, a bridge to a side building, or down the stairs to two other doors. These exits are within line of sight of each other, allowing for early engagements with the enemy team. The Conquer zone surrounds a large cherry tree at the center, flanked by buildings accessible via the bridge from spawn, wooden ramps in front of it, or a lower-floor trampoline. These buildings provide vantage points and alternate routes for escapes or flanks.

Gameplay features

At One Minute Left, fire erupts from scattered vents across the map, dealing 20 damage every 0.25 seconds. The fire bursts from the vents during the map's opening sequence.

Setting

Darkage Cliffs is set in an eastern-inspired cliffside dōjō. Its central courtyard, surrounded by buildings in a U-shape, opens to a cliff edge overlooking a vast, fog-covered abyss. Distant mountain peaks and other eastern-inspired structures can be seen in the background. A few Torii gates separate the courtyard. One half features a statue in a small pool, surrounded by pine trees, while the other holds a large cherry tree in a similar pool at the center. All windows around the map glow a dim yellow. White banners featuring the Thieves' Den insignia are hung from some of the structures.

Tips

Due to the amount of buildings/structures within Darkage Cliffs, ranged characters will have an advantage by being able to chip melee characters health within a relatively safe distance.

The tree situated on the middle of the Conquer zone can provide shelter from ranged shots, particularly Hyperlaser.

Trivia

  • This map is based on the Dark Age Ninja series of catalog items.
    • This makes it the only map to not be based on any specific games or locations made early in ROBLOX's history.
  • Darkage Cliffs is one of the only maps in PHIGHTING! that represents an actual location in The Inpherno, taking place in Thieves' Den.[1] It shares this distinction with Banland and Shooting Teapot Observatory.
    • Despite this, the map is inaccurate to how it would actually appear in-universe, due to it being designed for gameplay first. [1]
