Unlike a salvage uplink you can fail it and retry without failing the mission.
Stingtails being more visible is an easy agree, but perhaps their "visibility" is more audio than visual.

yes but thats on the weakest bugs, burst damage means damage in a very small time frame (usually used against high health enemies (praetorian and up in drg's case))
something like the focus shots on the m1000 or the pgl have high burst damage as they deal a lot of damage in one hit
drillers primaries typically deal a lot of damage over a longer time frame so they still have high damage per second but not high burst damage

Hello, i've been playing for the last keep or so, what's the best drilling prima...
AG Mixture on Sludge Pump is best for single target imo
If you’re in a coordinated team though Cryo Cannon with something like Tuned Cooler OC and Cold Radiance in tier 5 can freeze bosses/ads quickly and your team can make quick work of enemies if they aren’t running any heat weapons.
Facemelter OC on Flamethrower is also nice for single target but is sub-optimal compared to the previous two.
I like Driller a lot if it wasn’t obvious.
If you want to have an easier time with Praetorians and Oppressors both Cryo Cannon and Flamethrower with the Tempature Overdrive perk on Microwave gun can do pretty big numbers and is pretty ammo efficient especially for the amount of damage is can do.
Basically the gameplay loop would just be pump Flamethrower on X until on fire or Cryo till frozen and then whip out Microwave gun and put into overdrive to get the temperature shock to happen.

Yaknow what it might be VIM and I’m just not remembering correctly

Can’t wait to take it into DD’s
coral pond
tuned cooler lost me once i started using ITE. Not having any downsides is really good lol
dense vessel
I don’t have any OC’s on Cryo other than Ice Spear and Snowball 
And obviously Tuned which is great
olive flicker
AG gives charged shot nice coverage even shooting on the ground.
Which is basically the only thing I've found it useful for.
And hitting stuff further away.
dense vessel
Only problem I seem to run into is accidentally shooting myself and running out of ammo pretty fast if I don’t pay attention.
But Microwave gun with some good perks helps me stay ammo efficient, I’ll send my personal build when I get home in like a week.

When should I start deep dives
And how much should I focus on ammo preservation
still geode
just start them whenever you unlock em and see how it goes
for ammo, try to not be wasteful with it as your ammo/nitra carry over between stages, but most of the time you also end up having more nitra than you need anyway
i find that there's really no need to build specifically for ammo and there's also no need to optimize your ammo usage by pickaxing all the bugs or anything, just don't do things that are clearly wasteful (like firing fat boy at 2 grunts)
torn dagger
When should I start deep dives
And how much should I focus on ammo preservation
I’d say try getting an OC or two you like on your main class while warming up on haz 4
For ammo, you gotta have a feel for it, earlier missions have less nitra and easier difficulty, so don’t be wasteful for no reason
Usually you can go the first stage with no resupplies
And either resupply at the start of stage 2 or when needed
At the middle/end of stage 2 you should have a good amount of nitra to be “more expendable”
Just use you resupplies in not stupid places and make sure you don’t waste the health regen on the pips you get
Keep the red sugar for emergencies
fossil moon
Is stage 2 and 3 much harder than 1/haz 3
torn dagger
Is stage 2 and 3 much harder than 1/haz 3
Idk the numbers, but it’s not obscenely more difficult
Tho I think stage 1 is already like haz 4 or haz 3.5
Haz 3 to haz 4 has a LOT of changes to enemy spawns, both in type and quantity
fossil moon
Wiki says 3.
I have no idea besides that tbh
torn dagger
If you can handle yourself on haz 4 you are good to go
Just be sure to use the missions that make up deep dives
fossil moon
It's 3>3.5>3.5 it says
If that's it then I'm not too concerned
torn dagger
And remeber that playing solo is easier on normal missions because the haz is lower on solo
Haz 3 solo is more like haz 2 on squads

It's 3>3.5>3.5 it says

Hello fellow miners, I did my first deep dive earlier today and am now wondering...
Regular Deep Dive is equivalent to haz 3-3-3.5, Elite is haz 4.5, 5 and 5.5.
Both often have special hazards so doing an EDD is substantially harder than a Haz 5 regular mission
I'd say complete a few Haz 5 missions and then try one
coral pond
regular dive is 3-3.5-3.5
and wdym special hazards? they're just hazards like you can get in normal missions. And honestly edd can be easier than a normal haz 5 mission considering nitra carries over between stages

the EDD is definitely easier than regular haz 5 with a mutator

CATG isn’t worth it generally over hot bullets or aggressive venting
still geode
neither of the other mods do direct damage, but both of them will ignite enemies, dealing damage over time and potentially igniting more enemies (as burning enemies heat up other nearby enemies)
aggressive venting also has a very strong fear effect, allowing you to potentially take a resupply or revive someone even if your shield is on cooldown
dense sage
i’d probably *only try catg on like, a stun bullet hell build
fun as heck but incredibly impractical
still geode
AV is absolutely the way to go with stun bullet hell
stun everything in a nice curve around you -> AV ignites all of it and fears them -> pull out secondary to kill larger, beefier targets -> back to minigun and stunning things
dense sage
makes sense
i think last time i brought bullet hell stun was on a 4-gunner run
so i could afford to support with just “m1 w” play and catg
still geode
yeah
AV does a very good job of compensating for bullet hell's lower damage, in addition to allowing you to lean even harder into the personal safety it provides by giving you an additional way to CC enemies and create space (that you can then hold by stunning the bugs)
dense sage
being able to clear the obscene amount of naedocytes was so nice, but i’ll def shift to av on that loadout later
would you run a 6shooter or vb bulldog with that?
still geode
6 shooter, elephant rounds, and homebrew are all viable bulldog picks for it, but usually i end up running BRT7 instead as it has more raw DPS than bullet hell
you can run VB, but you can't really ignite things on-demand since you need to build up a lot of heat for it first and that means you'd need a teammate who's igniting things for you that you can rely on to consistently ignite what you want to shoot
leadspray brt7 pairs very well, but you can have issues vs menaces and spitballers as both weapons have low accuracy
experimental rounds doens't have quite the damage of leadspray but it sacrifices ammo instead of accuracy
you can still stun menaces quite easily with bullet hell though

Miner Adjustments
Recoil is there because I cant reduce spread since I get more pellets instead
mellow cradle
good
wraith shard
Seems like the only way I can still 1 shot grunts in has 4
Which is mildly inconsistent anyway
sour rain
boob
full saddle
its inconsistent sometimes but stuns are very nice
wraith shard
If only the oc buffed rof too
full saddle
yeah just shoot the full magazine in one go lmao
wraith shard
Maybe it'd make up for the lack in damage by upping its dps
full saddle
octuple barrel
wraith shard
Anyway I didn't think the stun was important until the bugs started living
I feel like it's irrelevant on base but DAMN do I need something else on mini
full saddle
but honestly if you like how minishells feels you should definitely just use it, its not like you're going to lose because you're using the oc or something
wraith shard
if only there was an oc that upped rof and damage
Sounds like another approach to my auto shotty build is possible
wraith shard
but honestly if you like how minishells feels you should definitely just use it,...
Oh yeah ofc
mellow cradle
you'll probably enjoy cycle overload very much when you get it
wraith shard
I was just hoping someone would be like " nah its good you just gotta do..... and it pops off" so I could be more efficient with mini shells
But I won't stop using it
Or I wouldn't but dedi is now implying theres an alternative
full saddle
oh yeah youll love cycle overload
full saddle
the dps that thing can pump out is pretty funny and if you like the idea of an auto shotty just popping stuff its definitely gonna do that for you
i personally really like magnetic pellet alighnment which is kind of the opposite of what your playstyle is lmao
mellow cradle
MPA is permanently in my OC slot as well, lel
wraith shard
Is magnetic pellet basically a slug
full saddle
i guess yeah its kinda close to that, lower rof, better spread, and increased weakpoint damage
full saddle
yeah lmao you definitely could never really thought of it like that
mellow cradle
MPA is +30% dmg against weakpoints, half as much spread, and a slightly decreased rof
wraith shard
I love everything shotgun related minus birdshot
Lame
Buckshot, flechette, and slugs are represented in cool ways in video games
full saddle
scout shotgun has some really fun ocs if you get some of them
wraith shard
And automatic buckshot is probably my favorite depiction, followed by slugs
wraith shard
scout shotgun has some really fun ocs if you get some of them
I already have the jet fuel shells
Or whatever its called
full saddle
jumbo?
full saddle
oh special powder
wraith shard
There we go
full saddle
hell yeah that thing rules its so fun
wraith shard
I'm stupid
I love that with double trigger, max cd grapple, and im HOPING I eventually get the hover mod for the mosin
And throw on some hover boots for even more airborne bs
full saddle
yeah hoverclock + special powder is extremely funny at times
oh you definitely dont need hover boots for that build but i respect the vision
wraith shard
Nah I need it
full saddle
🫡
wraith shard
Gotta absolutely maximize my air time
The ground is for bitches im reaching the stratosphere
mellow cradle
Gotta absolutely maximize my air time
you can hover again with the m1000 if you kill an enemy in the air with a focus shot
mellow cradle
so you can jump up, kill enemies with focus shots while hovering, and by that time, your grapple recharges again
100% air uptime
wraith shard
mellow cradle
and you reload while going upwards from the grapple hook again
mellow cradle
that won't work, because you are reloading while you still have upwards momentum from your grapple hook
and you have an empty magazine, so you won't get a kill in that time
unless you grapple upwards again while still having 2 bullets in the chamber, but without that last hover, your grappling hook might not be recharged
so just take whatever upgrade you 'd normally take
mellow cradle
the opinions of the community on it are simmilar, yes
wraith shard
Man
Ok im FEELING it being bad now
6 round burst not doing what damage boosted 3 round burst on base can do
Its hella accurate tho with the 2 accuracy mods tho thats smth
mellow cradle
ye, if people use that oc, then they use the brt as a tranquilizer with the stun mod, lol
wraith shard
I was thinking of doing that
But I wanna kill with it
But yeah thats probably better, especially since the gunner is never lacking in his primary's ammo

I just unlocked Deep Dives recently and haven't tried out one yet. Any heads ups for people just trying out this mode?
pliant yoke
Give it a try
See what happens
Also, don’t be greedy with using nitra for resupplies - you will end up with more of it than you will need, as it carries over through missions in stages 2 and 3
still geode
yes
don't be greedy with how you use them, but don't intentionally waste it either
you'll have enough nitra
ruby wolf
I just unlocked Deep Dives recently and haven't tried out one yet. Any heads ups...
Deep Dives are always the same caves and missions (until they refresh), so even if you fail, you know what is ahead of you.
You will keep your Matrix Core rewards even if you fail a Deep Dive, unless you fail on the first Stage. Then you get nothing.
Never hog resupplies in Deep Rock unless everyone else is already wealthy on ammo, or you have enough Nitra for another resupply anyway.
Deep Dives consist of 2 missions per cave over 3 stages, resulting in 6 missions overall. There is a unique objective called the Black Box, which is a mini-clone of Salvage Operation.
Deep Dive rewards, like credits and experience, do not stack per stage, but instead treat it as if you just did one big mission. That will make sense later.
Nitra is kept throughout all stages, so saving it for future stages is an option.
People cannot join mid-Dive, so if someone leaves, they're gone for good.

The last point has a workaround. All you need is to have the host have a public info about what's he playing. Then you can join them even on the 3rd stage of DD

If you take a look at someones Steam profile sometimes on the column on the right there is a a spot under their steam level and badges that says "Playing currently in [name of the game here]. When you are playing the same game as this person, a button saying "Join game" appears. When you press it, you join this person no matter at what point in the game they are. Even 3rd stage of DD.
ancient cove
Sorry if I sound dumb, but could you elaborate a bit more?
- After you get disconnected/crashed, go to the DD/EDD Terminal and find the lobby you were in before (it will be grayed out)
- Mouse Right-Click on the lobby to open the Steam Profile of the Host.
- If Host's profile isn't private/invisible etc. there should be a green "Join" button
- Use the Join button to rejoin the lobby.
If host's profile is private, you can try to add him as friend.
It's my c&p to tell people how to rejoin deep dives

just needed better phrasing.
Although im guessing this aint possible on consoles, so rip them

Not quite. 4am is the PST timezone reset. It resets at midnight UTC
Also important to note that you HAVE TO restart your game for the reset to take place. A lot of people get confused why they see the same dive after reset but it's bc they didn't restart the game so the dives won't change
jagged rapids
i thought it would reset on like sunday or monday 😢
Tbh most games with resets (at least that I play don't do that). Another example would be destiny 2 which resets on..Tuesdays if I recall (it's been a while, I retired my helmet)
jagged rapids
whats the best card thingy
Not sure what you mean. There are no "cards" in this game
inland badge
like the matrix cores or whatever their called
jagged rapids
like the matrix cores or whatever their called
overclocks
Matrix cores are just a resource you use to make them.
And tbh this question is very subjective and broad.
First thing is what class are you playing, what weapons do you like using, what's your play style
You'd probably do well asking in #drg-chat and looking at Reddit. This isn't something that can be answered in short
But there are some that are considered great or just loved for the meme potential
But especially with the current season making some much needed balancing changes to... "Bad" (or underwhelming) OCs, most anything is viable
But if you're a newer player, I wouldn't focus on which are considered the best bc there's nothing you can do to intentionally get that OC. Just accept them as they come and experiment. You can really use anything so it's about finding what you are comfortable with and enjoy
Even at the haz5 level you can get away with pretty much anything if you have a sinus understanding of the hand mechanics, movement and enemy prioritization
People run "fresh file" haz5 and do fine so overclocks are nice but you won't lose just bc you don't have a specific one

wraith shard
Any build recommendations for soloing the EDD before it leaves
I died on the 2nd on cause the area was smol and the stupid stingtail denied me my resupply 3 times
raven carbon
Second shield disruption stage can be a little tricky but salvage is secondary so no uplink is required. Lots of morkite mining so if you get the beer you're in luck.
Which class are you using
wraith shard
I reset for dark morkite im gaming
I can play any class
Whichever does the job best is who ill be using
raven carbon
I did it with engi, ECR Lok1 and inferno breach cutter with shredder
raven carbon
Great crowd control and you don't need single target with this week's missions, no sabotage or elimination
wraith shard
raven carbon
Is ECR an OC
Yes, explosive chemical rounds
Every shot with 3 locks causes an explosion, extra damage and fear
Amazing for big crowds and chases away mactera too
raven carbon
Cause I dont think I have that
Tbh just breach cutter should also do the crowd control role just fine
ember zealot
what do you have on your drills
tall relic
Barbed drills, faster cooling, and extra ammo
tall relic
I use my drills in short bursts against enemies
The higher ammo count is a lot more useful imo
tall relic
Yeah vampire is practically necessary

it's worth noting that drilling enemies uses fuel much, much faster than drilling terrain - i personally prefer the extra fuel over having my drills cool in combat too for that reason

hello everyone, can anyone tell me how to farm the necessary overlocks?
vale apex
i took vamp, resupplier, dash, and iron
tall relic
hello everyone, can anyone tell me how to farm the necessary overlocks?
You get overclocks from promotions, so try to level up fast
ember zealot
but over time you can get them
dense halo
Hm
still geode
resupplier, born ready, vampire, dash, iron will is my usual go-to setup
with cryo+epc or cryo+cooker born ready is useless, but on other builds i still find it useful even if i have some weapons that don't benefit
tall relic
I run the same thing except I have friendly in place of born ready
ember zealot
with thin
ember zealot
yeah
tall relic
I've only started using tcf recently and it's addicting
I got my ass handed to me by a mactera plague point extraction mission which made me rethink my cryo wave cooker build
ember zealot
mainly because flamers kill many things very well
still geode
hitting a tcf shot on a group of mactera feels soooooo good
ember zealot
i just love freezing a massive group of macteria
tall relic
Still trying to get the hang of it but god damn
Best play I've pulled off so far is dropping a downed gunner down from a nearly unreachable hole with TCF
dense halo
why can't I authorize my discord account through the terminal
wraith shard
Yes, explosive chemical rounds
Sounds cracked
olive flicker
TCF timing is so annoying, I was kinda getting the hang of it then I played as non-host and gave up.
olive flicker
It's also not that required in my experience, there is usually another way that's not significantly worse.
tall relic
I'm finding it's the best way to deal with big groups of mactera if you're running cryo, aside from maybe snowballs
Cryo base fire is just too slow and ammo costly
rose yacht
I'd like TCF if it doesn't pop on merely touching an enemy or terrain.
[was hoping it would stick to whatever direction you shot it at and you can just blow it up by shooting it.]
tall relic
Yeah I agree that's a little annoying

Sometimes I'll see one in a tunnel adjacent to the room I'm in and I can't find the little dirt spot to dig to get over there, I'll keep working on it though. I do see them on the map!

Is there anything i should be majorly worried about in the dd this week?
Looks prety easy for the most part
celest ruin
Looks prety easy for the most part
low o2 was the only kind of difficult part
but its drilldozer so ehh
lusty coral
I need a gunner scout and engineer on ps4 for a deep dive

Low O2 is gonna be aids
On that note, does Doretta give out O2? Don’t think I’ve ever had that mutater in escort before
coral pond
Yes she has o2 tanks on her
ember trellis
low o2 was the only kind of difficult part
Found that really easy, salavge was annoying, kept getting bulk and opressor spam
And stingtails

Yes she has o2 tanks on her
Well then that sounds super easy, barely an inconvenience
coral pond
it is until the scout goes to a previous room to get the nitra and someone keeps taking molly from them

what’s a good (or at least funny) shield battery booster build i can use with my 12232 special powder
i had a thought regarding 11222 battery booster

Yeah but I should be able to do it solo no prob
coral pond
oh yeah solo it's basically just a normal escort

a solid one i saw was 1121X

but that’s totally reasonable for him to do lol

that’s swapping out plasma splash for electrocution yeah
spiral badge
I’m either next to Molly or next to dotty anyway
soft token
my build was mainly a “fuck everything in that general direction” button
coral pond
but that’s totally reasonable for him to do lol
yeah but people taking molly from him makes it a pain in the ass
i wasn't hating on the scout, i was hating on the fact that people yoink molly while the scout is doing his thing
woeful niche
ah i see
spiral badge
Yeah, scout gets molly on escort for sure
Cause everyone else should be with dotty, unless engie hasn’t been platforming for scout properly and has to backtrack

- After you get disconnected/crashed, go to the DD/EDD Terminal and find the lobby you were in before (it will be grayed out)
- Mouse Right-Click on the lobby to open the Steam Profile of the Host.
- If Host's profile isn't private/invisible etc. there should be a green "Join" button
- Use the Join button to rejoin the lobby.
If host's profile is private, you can try to add him as friend.

is there a channel where the weekly dives are posted? if not can someone send what the EDD is this week

Check pins, but idk if the EDD was updated

oh i see, ty

this edd was weird
no cave leeches on stage 2
but we had a pair of bulks spawning on our faces
twice
at least we only had to kill one per pair
elfin oyster
How bad is the edd
static lichen
not hard, really?
third stage can get a bit rough, since haz 5.5 lethal enemies is great at punishing misplays
elfin oyster
As someone who does not care about the cosmetic core, good to hear thats the hard one
static lichen
second stage is strange
first one is easy, just don't forget about shield disruption being a thing
no bosses, no tricky warnings
no aquarq to speedrun
no escorts
one of the simplest edds in the last two months, imo

Hows nitra
static lichen
you won't be drowning in nitra, but you should end with a surplus of 2-3 resupplies as long as you don't use them too much

Is there a guide on how to coreectly use the Corrosive Sludge Pump?

Someone asked for dispersor compound build a couple of hours ago
#deep-dive-discussion message
The idea is to charge shot to spread sludge all over crowds (CC)

Use the epc to set goo on fire
proud veldt
what perks should i get for engineer
devout peak
Iron will no brainer for eavry class besides that go things that will help you that you can't do normally. Not hover boots when if you didn't fall in the first place you wouldn't need it. Dash is good see you in hell can be good on driller beast master is good
static lichen
if not sure about the perks, go dash, iron will, born ready, resupplier, vampire
always works

it was me, thanks anyways to remind me from it
also
thanks for pointing out how to use it

I agree!
You can play around with the passive but I would always run vamp or resuppier for iron will

Np
weary trellis
is it just me or did stages 1/2 of the normal deep dive not only spawn zero lootbugs, but also barely generated enough nitra for only one resupply each
weary trellis
please know I am 100% serious when I say I didn't see a single lootbug until stage 3
zenith ember
Huh, interesting
If your main objective is nitra though im pretty sure the caves in between stops has alot iirc, for escort
Because i remembered wasting 2 resup early and still have 160 in reserve during hearthstone
weary trellis
huh
guess I'm blind then
stage 3 was much more forgiving with nitra at least

dash is honesty way more impactful then iron will

For disperser, would t1c not be better

Is there a guide on how to coreectly use the Corrosive Sludge Pump?
there should be some in YT / reddit. but in principle, the sludge pump have Damage over time and Slowing movement aspects and direct damage.
so depending on your goal, your build might be different.
for disperser compound, you have a lot of goo fragments and can cover alot of area / damage multiple enemies. i personally leaning into crowd control, so slowing down enemies is first prio in my build

imo mag size is always really good on sludge pump

so turret em discharge voltaic
what’s a good build to pair it with 22111 overdrive booster diffractor
coral pond
all 2s discharge is my go to, since discharge is already cutting your damage you might as well go for the cc route with electricity. Also since the discharge going off is based on your electrocution %
silver pewter
coral pond
also if you're using overdrive, i'd recommend the weak point damage bonus in tier 2 over the effect radius, and armor break instead of the extra heat since there's no rival presence in these dives
