<div class="IPBDescription">Just a few things iv learned</div> As most people know holo room is the best place to hold , but as ur trying to get it the chances are some mariens are going to vent hive so here are a few things about this map , imo its the best map <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
In vent hive most silly humans place there TF and normaly a few turrets and some times if ur lucky a PG on the grating about the hive where the r node is , its fairly small place and u can understand y it would be hard for a skulk to get to it , but if u go on the walls below it and bite the stuff from under the grate u can hit it with out the turrets or mariens hitting u, kind of a bug but its a thin bit of metal.
Also in vent hive as u run out of the door leading to the grate with the R node if u run on the wall to ur left you can see a sprite that looks like a bio-goo wall , u can actualy run though it , this is hell to see throgh for the humans because its dark and its well covered , so all u do is get parasite out and get ur self some para kills <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Vent to there base , u can get in this from holo room , above the door leading to reception or in the tunnel leading to reception , the best and easist way to get to there cc and indead there base is this little vent , if u have silence u can actualy run across the wall behind a human thats re-loading and he wont know ur there. also with the human stratages meaning they move out and leave 1 person to defend most of the time then there will be no turrets to shoot you.
last but not least : dont let them get prossesing ever <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

btw topic Here Hints was lurking enough, first thing I thought when reading your post was "doh, why not say what map you're talking about?"

Eclipse, Triad generator has a vent that opens below a floor with bite through grating, chances are you will never see a marine there but it is bite through grating.
Caged, Sewer grating beside the hive, do not put your phase gate there, lol. Sewer vestible, the walkway to the resource spot is another. Generator, the walkway allong the entry area where the second generator res node is, the walk way that you can see through in the generator hive, and the grating covering the tunnel into atmospheric just outside generator (where the gen res node is).
Nothing, the res node just outside the marine spawn in docking wing 1, you can't kill the res node but you can eat a marine or two, lol.
Bast, water treatment (the water tunnel to feedwater) has a walkway you can bite through. Refinery also, the walk way in the center of the room.
Hera, the vent location already pointed out AND the catwalks in processing.
Nancy, the torn up grating near the marine start across from the res node (kind of useless though).
Tanith, the vent walkway in the research labs outside of waste handling (also useless).
So there are places in each map where grating can be bitten through to attack a marine or structure, how ever not all of them are useful.
One last point, if you can bite through it, they can <b>shoot</b> through it. The only thing stopping them from hitting you is hitting their own structures/team mates. So you better be careful when doing it.
also, if you can get under them (By accident) you can eat marines through floor gratings and they can do nothing back
