A battle map is where PvP (player vs player) is enforced by not having any demilitarized zones. These are considered 4-1, 4-2, 4-3, 4-4, and 4-5. These maps can be used to access the upper map areas. Level 8 is required to enter any battle map. There are no aliens or ore resources found on these maps. There are bonus boxes which have times 1.5 the content.
If you are shot upon trying to jump from a portal on these maps, you will find that you cannot escape and jump. In the center of each Battle Map is a portal which leads to 4-4.

The same rule as Battle Maps is enabled here, you cannot jump through a portal if you are being attacked making it a PvP map. There are also no Bonus Boxes, Ores, or aliens found here.
Overview
The battle maps consist of the following 4-X maps:
Each company has its own battle map areas, which follows as 4-1 is owned by MMO, 4-2 by EIC, and 4-3 by VRU, while 4-4 is not owned by any company, and 4-5 is inhabited by boss and uber type aliens. Each battle map area does not contain any ore, resources, or aliens (besides 4-5 having uber type); all the battle maps have bonus boxes which even contain times x1.5 the content. 4-4 is slightly a higher traffic map due to having three portals close together in the middle which lead to 4-1, 4-2, and 4-3.
4-4
One of the largest maps but also one of the dangerous. It is the main traveling map that connects the lower maps to the upper ones. PvP with no boxes.
