'''''Damnation''''' is a [[multiplayer]] map in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. It is one of the few non-symmetrical maps and incorporates both a high and low flag base, providing heavily vertical gameplay. It is highly popular on the [[Oddball]] and [[Team Slayer]] gametypes. The map was remade as [[Penance]] for ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]''. | '''''Damnation''''' is a [[multiplayer]] map in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''.

Damnation takes place in a [[Covenant]] facility devoted to the controlling of water flow on terrestrial surfaces. There are three separate streams of water flow down, into an abyss in the main chamber, with many interconnecting platforms, bridges and walkways hanging dangerously close to the pit. Other rooms are mostly empty, with the exception of [[Covenant | Damnation takes place in a [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] facility devoted to the controlling of water flow on terrestrial surfaces.

This is actually incorrect - a fairly seasoned ''Halo: CE'' player can achieve this jump from the middle fall bridge to the pit area that contains the coveted rocket launcher. This is done by simultaneously performing two tasks: Walking over the [[Overshield]] power-up and bouncing a [[grenade]] at the wall so that it blows up directly beneath your feet. If timed properly, the grenade will propel the player over the ledge as the Overshield is powers up,, therefore causing no damage to the player's health and keeping the Overshield intact. Some things to remember: 1) The fuse times of [[type-1 Antipersonnel Grenade|plasma grenades]] and [[m9 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose Grenade|fragmentation grenades]] are different (a fragmentation grenade will blow up almost immediately when it settles on the ground; a plasma grenade will take approximately two seconds after settling to detonate); 2) If timed perfectly, you can throw the grenade at the wall as you are running full-speed at the wall while powering-up the Overshield just as the grenade detonates (again, WHEN you throw the grenade at the wall depends on whether you are using a plasma or fragmentation grenade) - this is most efficient and helps to decrease the chance that you will be killed by an opponent noticing you prepping for the jump; and 3) getting INTO the pit area does not necessarily mean you are going to GET OUT, as this is one of the most highly-contested spots on the map, with constant grenade detonations going on and players monitoring the re-spawn of the [[M19 SSM Rocket Launcher|Rocket Launcher]]. | ||

* | *Some of the pipes drip a green liquid, presumably the same liquid that can be seen in levels with the [[Flood]] in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. | ||
* | *When playing Oddball, if a player throws the skull outside the map via a window, it will keep going down infinitely until it respawns. | ||
*This map will be re-introduced as a forge variant of [[Penance]] in ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary''. | |||
