hey guys sorry if this is dumb but does my entire party need to be promoted to go into deep dives

yes only promoted dwarves can participate in deep dives

#

Crashed in the middle of the deep dive

#

What should I do?

leaden cypress
#

Try to contact one of the persons in the deep dive and tell them to send you an invite

#

or to add you on steam

glad frost
#

I meant to ask how to report the bug

gloomy egret
#

if i were to play a deep dive and an edd would i get the same cores or would they be different

solar vortex
#

Should I just purely grind deep dives for overclocks?

vale ravine
gloomy egret
#

so you can get 9 total cores per week from weekly assignments and deep dives?

hi how do i join a call

#

i am in the server with them

but i cant get onto the voice call

#

they are all locked

buoyant glade
#

seriously don't understand what they were thinking when they added swarmageddon

#

its like they didn't playtest to see if this thing they added wasn't abjectly obnoxious and not fun

wintry ruin
#

its called swarmageddon, i dont think its meant to be easy

#

personally am fine with it, just use more AoE focused loadouts

raven carbon
wraith shard
#

Swarmageddon in bullshit fucking cancer if its a biome with space brains

#

Forgor their names

#

Naedocyte shockers?

swift steeple
#

swarmageddon isnt that bad if you have grenades/ fire/homing/ anything thats not a scout weapon

patent lichen

#

Is dunce role justa perma mute

wintry ruin
#

The game offers many upgrades and weapon types to better equip and diversify ur dwarfs strength

#

If u want ur dwarf to have high single target dmg, thats good, but yes it will suck when ur swarmed

#

if ur dwarf has tons of AoE dmg, then great u can wipe swarms but it might be harder to take out beefy targets

#

perhaps, if deep diving, take ways to handle both or specialize in 1 and let ur teammate deal with the other

#

for example, engineer with the lock-on gun and overclock for weak points, and driller with goo gun or whatever

#

even scout, from my experience, does pretty good vs waves of enemies if u take the duel wield SMGs with penetration upgrade. mine also have the ice overclock.
and then i use the sniper rifle primarily or the default gun with weakpoint dmg boost overclock.

That way i can deal with both hordes of small enemies and big beefy enemies pretty well.

#

if u diversify ur portfolio, diversify ur loadout too

thorn hawk
#

I keep losing at stage 2, any tips against swarmaggedon?

#

For gunner, carpet bomber on thunderhead is really good. Take the aoe mods for max effect. Hurricane also has an AoE OC

wintry ruin
#

Gunner and Engi both have pretty great AoE, especially Engi even with no overclocks

dense pebble
#

Engi, shard diffractor with AoE is most efficient

thorn hawk
dense pebble
#

Leadstorm magic bullets can work but its meh overall

#

Carpet bomber is really really good. My favorite OC actually

#

Make sure you build your secondary for single target damage.

#

I use lead storm burst myself.

patent elk
glad frost
#

And most stubby and lok loadouts

still geode
#

just shoot em with your secondary

glad frost
#

Shard diffractor?

#

Also, fat boy & spinning death exist

still geode
#

spinning death does perfectly fine vs swarmers lol

#

and if u bring fat boy and proceed to have ammo issues thats your own fault

#

not much else to say about that

glad frost
#

What about the diffractor?

still geode
#

what about it

#

?

glad frost
#

It's not good at killing swarmers

still geode
#

bro what

glad frost
#

Unless you have that one fire oc

still geode
#

?????????????????????

half vine
glad frost
#

Yeah

half vine
#

nah but its absolutely fine against swarmers if you build it for AOE even without overclocks

still geode
#

its absolutely fine against swarmers even if u equip no mods at all

#

or u build for pure single target dmg

glad frost
#

Fr?

still geode
#

its without any sliver of doubt one of the best weapons in the entire game at killing large amounts of swarmers

glad frost
#

Maybe I'm using it wrong

half vine
still geode
#

not really

#

u have what, 350 ammo? and it costs 3 ammo to kill swarmers with purely aoe damage?

#

and in tier1 u can pick between +100 ammo or +2 damage which kills swarmers with 2 ammo

glad frost
#

I mostly use it to kill acid/web spitters, breeders, broods, and other far targets

still geode
#

automated beam controller would be the only one that would have ammo issues vs swarmers

#

like u literally just point it at the swarmers and press the left mouse button

#

and they immediately die

#

even if you missed the swarmer by a meter it dies because the weapon has aoe

glad frost
#

I'll try using it like that

#

What's a good AOE build for it?

still geode
#

basically anything you can do with the weapon results in a solid aoe performance

#

but VIR definitely takes the number one spot

#

Honestly the grind is so easy now there’s no need

#

Since promotions give cores

robust spruce
#

Best driller primary for elite deep dives?

pliant yoke
#

But it’s by no means best - “best” doesn’t really apply to Driller’s primaries, as they all do something well and something else less so

tulip idol
#

Cryo is good for Dreadnoughts and holding defence points, quite a safe choice I'd say.

foggy vale
#

Greenbeard here, what are the rewards for doing a DD or EDD?

foggy vale
#

So the same as a weekly core hunt assignment?

fast stratus
#

Yes

#

Well you get different overclocks

jagged rapids
#

Once you've got them all you get blanks for the first 2 stages of a deep dive and a mineral "overclock" for the last stage

#

I think weekly core is the same but can't recall. Haven't done it recently 😅

pliant yoke
#

You do get a blank for completing stage 1

robust spruce
#

If u complete a stage then die and fail mission on second, do you get stage 1 rewards?

Alr thx

CRSPR is indeed quite terrible against Dreads, though

for dreads as driller i take ER subtata

peak onyx
#

is solo deep dive elite even possible?

#

tried it but could not catch up on killing enemis

celest ruin
#

very

peak onyx
#

how lol

#

ketp killing them but didnt stop spawing

celest ruin
#

you have to know when you need to kill and when you don't

peak onyx
#

was just running around cycles trying to surive and kill but my effort went to waste

celest ruin
#

how much haz 5 have you run

peak onyx
#

quite a few

#

haz 5 is no problem for me

#

but i did have an open lobby

#

not sure if that makes is harder

celest ruin
#

then take some crowd clear options, as long as you're doing things fast a 1 person scaled amount of bugs shouldn't be too bad

#

if you can save nitra from the stages you also are getting tons of resups in stage 2 and 3

peak onyx
#

i loads of nitro but the swarms were just too big

celest ruin
#

what class

peak onyx
#

turret

#

the guy with turret

#

engineer

celest ruin
#

he's got plenty of aoe

peak onyx
#

normally he feels op

#

but did not help much

I guess go faster

before swarms build up

was doing fine at beging but just at the end it got too crazy

tbh i thought shotgun was quite bad but by the looks of it its quite good

#

wow

#

solo edd

civic yoke
#

any gun is good if u know how to use it

celest ruin
civic yoke
#

also thats solo so bugs have way less hp

outer cloud
#

huh, i always felt like elite deep dives are quite a bit easier than haz 5 missions sometimes

#

shit like tyrant weed near refinery with uncoordinated team so you have to scramble for nitra quick and if you take too long you'll get a swarm on top of it

#

maybe a nemesis and crassus too

#

had one of those games with horrible cave gen AND there was a corruptor too spreading shit everywhere

#

just awful

#

much worse than any edd i have done

#

team ended up wiping, i'm pretty confident about my carrying skills at this point but i was on driller and it wasn't enough

civic yoke
#

that moment when u walk into a cave with a nemesis, a korlok and there is an egg next to it

fading carbon
outer cloud
#

edd also has no distractions like minerals or side events like meteors, i've done dives which had morkite mining as main with greenbeards without getting a single swarm

#

last week really sucked tho with swarmageddon + 6 eggs + hiveguard on stage 1

#

lots of ammo needed

civic yoke
#

terrain was shit too

outer cloud
#

yeah

#

we had garbage loadouts too so the swarmers were a pain

#

facemelter driller, gunner with minigun and brt

oblique thunder
#

Last week seemed to really test team's ammo economy

#

I liked it a lot, it was pretty easy compared to the week just before.

Stage 3 of the week before was hell 💀 and the stage 1 shield disrupt sabotage was rough for me

Hey in two days time I need a hard carry on elite deep dive in the oceanic region at about 4:45 just seeing

weak zenith
#

How experienced should I be to not be dead weight on an edd? Promoted every class once and haz4 is a challenge but doable

fast stratus
#

Well EDD is haz 4.5, 5, 5.5

#

So idk, you tell me

earnest geode
#

EDD ain't even that hard.

EDD does tend to attract more experienced players

or at least ones going in with the mindset of playing well

even if they'd goof around at other times

can anyone tell me which chat to ask about save files? my computer was shut off during a storm and i lost all my progress,just want to find out if its possible to get it back

it only has the save from when i started it up after reinstalling

#

i saw on a forum post that maybe a dev can find my file and restore it, if its not too much trouble, i just wanna ROCK AND STONE with my friends on their level lol, if i have to grind again i'll do it

sharp bridge
#

There are so many bugs that me and my friends get overwhelmed

#

One thing I am wondering is, does it make a difference to play with other people? 2/4 seems to be too difficult, but if the mobs increase even more then it's a dead end

marble token
#

idk I play scout so its easy to dodge enemies

#

as engi u can do a parkour map with your platform to evade
gunner can make good use of his zipline, as there is only menace and sludge spitter
driller is driller

thick sapphire
#

yes more people means more bugs

elfin mural
#

This weeks Dives were interesting

#

I had to try EDD like 3 times, but got it on the last one. We bunkered each time and it went surprisingly well! The Gunner left after getting shot off a zip by a Septic Spreader on his way to the Drop Pod, leaving me, Engi, and the Driller, who hard-carried us in all honesty
Somehow this time around, Stage 2 wasn't as horrid, and one of the others somehow got the Aquarq in the little clearing Bet-C was in WITHOUT waking her up, which is just insane. Was somehow a breeze.
The final stage was where shit hit the fan. We had MULTIPLE bulks spawn, and the Driller basically Solo'd the first one because Engi and I both fucked up and died in weird spots. The Driller managed to rez us both somehow, thank Karl. We used a bunker again for Swarms, and again it really worked!
Thankfully all 3 of us made it out afterwards

#

The regular DD was a breeze tho. Hyper Prop + MPA Shotty go BRRR
Me and the Scout (only us two) had surprisingly good synergy, and we managed to 3-cycle the Hiveguard on Stage 3 before he could even get an attack off due to the massive amount of damage that Hyper Prop does to Glypid butt.

Uhhh... guys, did yall feeling like deep dive elite are feel easier than last time update?

dire jay
#

4 People but now less bug, not like when first big update, get bombarded by shit ton loads of bug.

leaden cypress
#

Most of the EDDs are easy

#

It's not like having a new major update will suddenly make the EDD harder, unless there is some balancing to do

#

eg nemesis being a nightmare when S2 was released

left jolt
#

hiveguard at deep dive doesn't start his attack, just roaming

#

for five damn minutes

#

what should I do

young yew

You can try to attack it (pickaxe to save ammo)

I feel that helps sometimes

doesn't work

Ok then I'm out of advice

#

Get a cup of tea and look at it go

left jolt

Yeah it has happened to me a couple times. But so far it always recovered after less than 5min

Hiveguard just does whatever Hiveguard does

#

I have never tried an EDD before. Currently Lvl 98 (All-Rounder Dwarf) and can succeed in H4 about 95% of the time. Is EDD much much harder, or is it....manageable?

tulip idol
#

You're more than good enough for EDDs.

shadow temple
#

Whew, I hope so...cuz I heard EDDs and DDs have separate reward pools? As in, I can get the blank, weapon and cosmetic core from DD, and then another different set from EDD?

timid lotus
#

yeah

#

to be fair we are having some really easy edd lately

shadow temple
#

Nice, soooo realistically only the first 2 levels kinda matter unless I want drip yea?

timid lotus
#

yep

#

that's what i used to do before i started aiming for a full completion

tulip idol
#

Realistically you just go as far as you can.

shadow temple
#

Nice, do you have any class recommendation for EDD? Should I just stick with gunner to be safe?

languid rune
#

Deep Dives in general do get easier as the mission goes on, since you have to mine less and less nitra

shadow temple
#

Cuz I don't think I can find any EDD enthusiasts this late in the week

tulip idol
#

I always stick with gunner when I want "safe".

timid lotus
#

just play with whatever class you want

#

you can't really lose from not being a certain class

shadow temple
#

Aight, makes sense x)

#

Thanks for the tips~

tiny portal
#

how come every time a bulk spawns during escort and we have TWO gunners, NONE of them shield push it and we die

#

happened twice now

#

jesus

#

psa to all gunners: SHIELD PUSH THE BULK

still geode
#

because vanilla isnt difficult enough to actually push people towards improvement, resulting in many players not leaning skills that aren't actually that hard to understand as they don't need them >95% of the time

#

it stagnates player development due to too low of a difficulty cap

brisk cargo
#

Anyone know why I go from like 5k credits to 10-11k after only one mission which says it pays out 2k? I’ve only done 4 or 5 missions so idk loads abt the game yet lmao

Or at least lose hp

# sharp bridge what does that mean?

throw a shield down right in front of approaching bulk, forcing and pushing the bulk away from your group or objective momentarily and buying your team time

outer cloud
#

it's nice to combo with leadbursters too, they can annihilate bulks in a few seconds

#

and you won't hurt your team

tiny portal
#

Yesss exactly

shadow temple
#

Tried the EDD, damn, if this is one of the easy ones count me out lol

#

Thankfully I finished the first so it's not all for naught

#

The second with swarmageddon was just an instant gg for me

outer cloud
#

what class did you play as?

shadow temple
#

Gunner. It's now I realise Driller would probably be better due to the sheer amount of swarms

outer cloud
#

engineer is a very good choice too

#

shredders and turrets make short work of swarmers and you can focus on something else

shadow temple
#

Mhm, but it's aight, it's my first and most likely last EDD, definitely not my thing

outer cloud
#

i did my first edds as engineer with 0 overclocks and they were fine despite some nasty parts

Nah, I was on solo

#

But I died to the spitballers at the beginning cause I got dumb and temp shocked when I should've used my drills

#

So I only had 1 revive and iron will for the rest, which ended up with me accidentally running into a dead end

#

Without bosco it's modded

#

It did get me on my first one (also today) so that's why I went solo

#

It straight up kicked me at the middle so I figured it would be better at least to get the first 2 rewards

can't you disable bosco in the bosco menu?

really? I always assumed it was modded

didn't think the game would allow it, but it's a nice thing

What's sticky fuel?

Makes flames last longer and do more damage when they are placed on surfaces

Oh ok

#

Would active stability system or hipster be better For edd

#

i'd personally pick aise for this one, you can snipe twins from safe distance and it's easier to get rid of macteras/patrol bots

for mactera plague focus shot build with fear from t5 would be very good

rich ridge

Ok I was liking aise so I will stick with that thank you any secondary you would recommend

Gunner seems to be the least popular class. :(

wdym driller is not good for elimination 🤔

#

hydrogen ion additive and volatile impact mixture exist

eternal lava

or just sludge shotgun

+cwc with gamma

eternal lava

that’s my go-to for elim

oh and ice storm?

Good chance you wont see much people running around w scout if its not collection heavy objectives

#

Which does suck sometimes due to secondary objectived

slate stump
#

i'll probably run solo edd with sludge this week

#

considered scout, but swarmageddon 💀

lost plover
#

Sludge is better against dreadnoughts from my experience lol, so you should be good. But I don't have any oc's for driller, so maybe the other 2 primaries with overclocks also works well.

#

I also don't really know which secondary to use for driller.

Aw it’s swarmageddon again?

#

Low(but enough) nitra until 3rd stage, TIL swarmmers also inherit violatile guts

#

2 pumps out of 3 above the refinery for edd

outer cloud

sludge is better against dreads with uncoordinated team for sure

#

than cryo

sharp tundra
#

This looks tricky

#

You got rival presence and mactera. So you would want to use flame

#

But then you got the two dreadnoughts

#

I think an all around crspr build with epc secondary. Ammo c4 and impact axes?

Any possible special spawns

Elite Deep Dive of this week
Stage 2
Black Box
Mactera Plague kicks in when recovering Black Box

My gunner build of Bullet Hell - Magic Bullets - Leadburster was not ready for this beatdown

didn't help that the engineer had a fat boy and panic cleared the swarm mid-black box

Conflicted between using necrothermal or electric trail for the final mod of coil

Necrothermal basically procs guaranteed if you kill with hellfire coilgun

while electric trail procs both fire and elec DoTs

I always go with electric trail. but I don't have hellfire so it might be overkill.

Hi everyone, new here

#

how do I access drg-chat?

austere hound
thick sapphire
#

two of us built pipes to the same pumpjack on one attempt. But fortunately it's not too bad to get between the two high up pumpjacks (getting to them is hard but building from one to the other is okay)

#

we ended up winning

austere hound
thick sapphire
#

edd stage 3

#

also on my final attempt with random team we got nearly wiped out by a grabber lol

austere hound
thick sapphire
#

grabbers are annoying, they're really noisy when they're looking for someone to grab and then they tend to be quiet when they're actually about to grab you lol

#

was a grabber on stage 3 though

#

for stage 2 preferably don't just run out and die like an idiot. Also for black box driller can drop it down next to the minehead

ancient sapphire
#

i think it's just needing players with good OC/skills

austere hound
ancient sapphire
#

you stay inside the drop pod for a while

#

almost at the end of stage 2 i had 500+ kills while gunner had 80

#

the two other ranged from 100-200

thick sapphire
#

have some people clear the important stuff like the goobers and breeders and others just kite around i guess

#

ideally just sit in the pod and pick off the goo bombers first, and whatever else you can shoot, especially stuff like trijaws

#

also stage 1 nitra is pretty scarce

#

like there's barely enough for 2 resups and if you're going quickly and miss some perhaps not even

#

and you're probably gonna burn through 1-2 resups worth of ammo

#

edd stages 2 and 3 are a bit better nitra-wise

#

but not super plentiful either

#

like you'll probably have an extra supply or two unless you're super wasteful

#

by the end of stage 3

austere hound
#

noted thanks

thick sapphire
#

stage 2 feels like typical mactera plague haz5, nothing too crazy besides a black box location that's kinda bad but fortunately the driller can drop it down

Already miss the last two

Spawned in on stage 2 and saw nothing but yellow

austere hound
#

same lol (and little doom music)

#

stage 3 is annoying terrain and a pretty annoying mutators

#

swarmageddon always annoying, and volatile guts is a double edged sword

tacit iris
#

Swarmageddon led to us losing on last stage

thick sapphire
#

helps a lot with clearing grunt waves but can also hurt if close, doesn't affect the swarmers i believe

tacit iris
#

Was last one left after doing an IW, needed resup but a few swarmers snuck up on me right before I got it

thick sapphire
#

there are also some pretty nasty enemies in stage 3's spawn pool

austere hound
thick sapphire
#

quite a few stingtails and you can get the occasional grabber

also web spitters

i'd like to say besides those it's mostly grunts, swarmers, praetorians etc.

I would run phero stuff more often but without fail the bugs with phero are shot by my team

mactera swarm at stage 2 is painful

stage 2 wasn't so bad if we killed the mactera while gunner shield was up

Is it worth basing my build around stage 1?

Rival presence is usually rough but its haz 4.5

I could build for mac plague too but then I'd be worse against the dreads

Im amazed we survived. I actually did not go down a single time in this fight, but it was bloody intense. Some of the most fun Ive had in a deep dive.

The gunners shield is probably like in the top 3 of gear in this game.

Also, max shield area is the best. Forget shield duration, the increased coverage is awesome.

I’m convinced driller is the best generalist. For deep dives. For solo he seems decent at all missions types.

#

Doesn’t have extreme struggle with anything

#

The one problem is

#

if you go cryo, you deal with flyers easily, but then single target like dreads are a problem

#

if you go sludge dreads are easier, but fliers are aids to hit

#

drill down down down call resup drill to the side a bit then bonk dreads with resup.

#

imagine if it works lmao

#

just drill a tunnel so they funnel

#

should be easy to hit them all with all driller primaries

#

Solo driller sludge would probs be best option

#

Decent vs ST and good vs swarms

#

Plasa for fliers and HVt

Super fun elite deep dive

#

I love when refinery missions have weird terrain

#

Makes them a lot more interesting

#

Probably one of my favorites so far, up there with the magma core stage 3 mac plague salvage EDD

Yw

#

Fliers die

#

Dreadnoughts die

#

Armor?

#

Nuh uh

#

Sludge blast

#

Airborne?

#

Nuh uh

#

Sludge blast

#

Whatever secondary you have just needs to be ammo efficient

#

SO

#

Not EPC

#

Also driller suffers in some cave generations

#

Primarily vertical shit. You can dig to where you wanna go but if its some whack ass PE or OSR mission where the area is essentially a vertical pillar

#

Well

#

I just abandon tbh. Don't know if anything like that exists on DDs or EDDs tho

#

idk why people say sludge blast destroy dreads, every time I have use it for that it just do mediocre damage.

#

I prefer to bring a slowdown build for dreads if I go driller, but to each its own i guess.

How

#

I'm not gonna disagree I wanna know what I'm doing wrong then

rancid cedar
civic yoke
#

and the ammo efficiency hurts a lot on sludge blast , maybe that's why i dont like it

wraith shard
#

It kills alot faster

rancid cedar
wraith shard
#

Especially with the fragment upgrade

#

It becomes a pellet upgrade

#

And those are goated on shottys

#

So imagine a shot gun that skips armor does splash and dot

#

i want to see someone do roller coaster on the edd lol

wraith shard
#

Its wild and I cant imagine playing any other build

civic yoke
#

I mean if I want dps I just play engie and go executioner

wraith shard
#

You can also be very ammo efficient with the less charge ammo upgrade but your dps falls quite a bit

wraith shard
#

What does that do for ammo efficiency

rancid cedar
#

thin containment field does godly amounts of dmg for barely any ammo. I can solo swarms with just that

rancid cedar
wraith shard
#

32 shots to 40 shots and considering one shot is a swarm and a half if you space it right its pretty good

#

I just need the comfort of a half second charge

civic yoke
#

but again I have use sludge blast like 5 times so im no expert on that oc

rancid cedar
#

sludge blast is good solo or if ur ok with totally fucking ur ammo econ and lowering ur aoe potential considerably

wraith shard
#

Otherwise I'd run it but I never feel like I need it

wraith shard
#

So do you like

#

Shoot a charged shot above a swarm and then detonate it?

civic yoke
#

persistent plasma my beloved

wraith shard
#

nice🗒️

#

I will be making a PPTCFEPC now

#

Finally

#

Ammo efficient plasma pistol

#

I ran TCF for this EDD and I felt like I wasn't able to get a ton of use out of it tbh

#

I used it to get some red sugar, grab the last bit of morkite we needed in the first stage, move the stage 2 black box down, and kill some mactera

thick sapphire
#

i imagine it would be good on the mactera

tall relic
#

Is it really that useful for general combat?

#

Maybe it shines better with crispr/sludge pump
