Wiki wasnt updated then lol my bad
No worries. Which wiki? Make sure you use wiki.gg
(The old Fandom DRG wiki is abandoned, inaccurate and frequently griefed)
Deep Dives are an End Game mechanic that was introduced in Update 25: Endgame - Part 1. Deep Dives are accessible to the player once they have promoted their first Dwarf, while Elite Deep Dives also require the completion of a Deep Dive (only once). Note that only promoted classes can participate on...
hey @slender heart, what the fuck, fix the wiki
How hard is the EDD this week?
Tried 4 times, got butt touched each time
Then again i was with some Frenchman so someone else might have had better luck
I was planning to solo, as I usually do
stage 2 can be hard but overall its ok
i would describe it as annoying
To everyone who was with me on EDD, i'm sorry that connection issues separated us all.
i had no idea deep dives were different based on your platform !! thats kinda neat
It was a thing when season 6 was released for Steam but not yet for consoles, now it's uniform again
ohhh alright!
I got that message when I had a network connection issue.

crazy bruh played through entire deep dive just for host to kick me in the last 5 mins saying it was mean't to be a private game
I think that's the default kick message.
Still sad to see someone kick at the end of deep dive
Pretty sure they kicked entire lobby since I saw 1 other person leave before I got kicked
Yep, it's crappy to waste other people's time like that.
I thought kicking was disabled after stage 1
But what is the point of kicking people? You're not gonna get extra xp. Crazy people

industrial sabotage jumpscare
Exploders on sabo yay yippee /s
have a feeling it's gonna go 1 hour on edd
props
true true
altho last time i did first stage edd with IS mission, the nitra is like 2 box in total
How's the cave gen on stages 2/3?
on stage 2 its messed up since its complexity 3 deep scan, stage 3 cave is massive but morkite nodes are in good locations
also I had betc on stage 2
Oh well, will have to see for myself
also dreadnought on stage 2 is near where you land
Damn 583 kills and no death in EDD
This mission is taking forever and the driller refused to drill to shit behind the wall
Goddamnit got kicked from DD
Why
Dude FF the shit out of me that I just died so I revenge then kicked
FFS we literally just about to be done with stage 3
oh, edd will be quite long run
Hows this weeks DD and EDD?
EDD does take the time, around an hour for an attempt.
Jeez, guessing the regular DD is far easier like the last one?
God, well any tips? Or is bunkering still the go to? 😂
nah EDD is pretty chill this week, missions are just long
Ah, thought it was like, duck and over or some shit
Finally some good fucking deep dives
1st stage is annoying because of exploders but other 2 are parasites and swarmers
yeah but they dont stop coming during caretaker fight
Caretaker on stage 1 hella worth it tho
Caretaker exists for that rare stage 1 dive nitra bank
- mini mules
Doesn’t sound that bad
Usually just 1-2 anyways, aint that bad
I mean its basically free resupply
It’s better than that month long stretch of DNC and Escort
I love duck and cover tbf
Pain in my ass
Especially when you got escort right after
Any dive with escort is a pass for me.
I remember doing escort DnC on haz 5 me2. it was hella fun
carpet bomber is really good for clearing colourful ceiling lol
Based
detonator exploded the landing spot for normal dd fuel cells
ended up 40 meteres under it
Treat it like deep scan
this edd sucks
stage 1 taken half an hour so far
kind of wish for sabo to be kicked out of the mission pool now
skill issue tbf
Drill issue
first 2 stage took us 30 min
Nah that sabo mission tore my team up, the dreads were bad enough but sabo haz 4+ suuucks
I mad
Game dcd me. On stage 3
I even killed the stage 1 boss
And got 2/5 deep scan crystals. Solo
Damn lost connection
I did not like the cave gen on this EDD LUL
Literally had to rely on the driller to make a tunnel to the drop pod for me at the last stage
fuckin 1670 kills with VIR Seeker Rounds
industrial sabotage is always a pain
whenever i play driller i try to avoid this if possible, kinda ruins the fun. Only in true emergencies
um, okay? a bit weird thing to avoid IMO
Whenever I play Scout I like it to be as dark as possible. For the immersion
What is a deep dive?
triple mission in one
without stop
and they are level 5.5 i think
unlocked after promoting once
Regular deep dives are hazard 3 then 3.5 elites start at 4.5 then 5 then 5.5
mb
2.5 to 3.5 for normal deep dive

Note that only promoted classes can participate on...
Wow
I question one simple thing
How do you play Engi or Driller
and have Zero crowd control?
I ended up with 1.1k kills and dozen rezzes
but appearenly no one got aoe for Elite Deep Dive Stage 3 Swarmageddon.
I was gunner with a hellfirecoil cun and minigun to help deal with the stage one omen and stage 2 twins.
All I can say is
B R U H
How should I approach this week's EDD? The first stage needs a lot of single target cuz sabo, but the later stages have little guy mutations that need aoe
VIR engi absolutely fucks on all three stages, maybe pair it with Exec LOK if you're into it
You will definitely want a driller and an engi in the team, overall
salvo + compact mags for gunner really good this week
Hmm gotcha, hopefully I can get a good team this week
I hope you get a good team.
I just use RO+TTC
2 hybrid build
sabo was rough, we had a medium-level gunner and two relatively new players and the driller brought cryo. We made it through the 1st stage through sheer determination and chewing through 4 resupplies over 40 minutes, but then the 2nd stage was so slow that we didn't have a resupply left over in the end and wiped in the beginning of the 3rd before we could deposit enough nitra for a resupply
At least they got their weapon overclocks
which part
stage 1 and 3
yeah stage 1 cave gen is fun lol
<@&296918282403840000>
That was a fun EDD,
That stage 1 was uhh troubling since we had a scout disconnecting but the jet boots are so neat and helped us clear it better
might be the worst EDD for speedrunners, they rlly hit u with 3 annoying long missions lmaoo
_ _
ATTENTION MINERS!
We are hearing rumors that some dwarves are still not done with this weeks
Deep Dives
!
We want to remind you that there's only half a week left until our scanners pick up new missions!
_ _
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
9 deaths
ONE POINT TWO K KILLS
EVERYONE ELSE ONLY GOT INTO 500 MAX ASND DIED 20 TMIES
BUT WE DID IT
AND THEY THANKED ME
FINALLY
APPRECIATION
Last EDD stage was pretty rough on solo scout
it's not hard just very long
How do deep dives work?
3 mission in a row
With more difficulty each stage
nitra saves between stages
Wasn't expecting the DD to be this easy 
its always easy.. not even haz 4
similarly, your ammo & health also are saved
so uhh, be mindful of how much you spend
my team got fucked
that EDD was horrid for us
sounds like driller issue
although i wouldnt say i did paticularly good with 11 dearhs
i resed 39 times
🥺 '
idek how we lost
nitra wise, i think there's a lot
but game wise, there's also a lot of enemies if you don't clear the objective as fast as you could
like exploders and swarmers
u can always find a good high lvl team here, try at least
im lowkey the same level as the rest of my team
these guys js genuenly went in and died bro
join us we only need one more i beg
oh bruh i js saw this
ah no worries good luck if you reattempt it
rock and stone
i would but i cant get on
Getting into the EDD as a 200 ms client was actual misery compared to my attempt as a host, wow
I joined that crew, helped them out
also for some reason hosting in east EU causes frequent desyncs lately
thank you for your sacrifice nemo
@orchid flicker so in my own attempt, I packed Seekers+VIR, my friend had Burning Hell+VB, and the random driller had Tuned Cooler+Gamma (with Contagion Transmitter in T5. Don't even ask)
randoweisser ahh build
Damn network stuff turned my 4-player DD into solo one. Welp, time to do this!
EDD was a fuckint nightmare
Never getting back those 2 hours but we pulled through
i think this week edd is driller focused
Damn and I thought we were slow for taking 1hr24mins
even when i join a "close" lobby i get higher ping than expected
the joys of playing on p2p lobbies
i think longest match i ever had was just over an hour. Like an hour and a couple of mins. Can't imagine going any longer than that
would go insane
Edd is rather normal.
Had barrage and spitballer spawn right outside of pod on stage 3.
It was rather funny.
I did the regular deep dive today haven’t played in a couple of months but I was wondering about the xp what would you say is the average?
Okok
I forgot to look at the screen for dd when I checked medbay it showed 6k I thought that didn’t seem right lol thanks
There are so many swarms to deal with that having good cc is mandatory. Though I did it with an Engineer with VIR Shard Diffractor to ignite stage 1 Omen turrets, Stage 2 parasites and Stage 2 Endless Swarmers.
It's a fixed amount:
Assuming successful completion, a regular Deep Dive always awards 15 750 Experience Points, 15 750 Credits, and 1 537 Performance Points,
while an Elite Deep Dive always awards 20 250 Experience Points, 20 250 Credits and 1 731 Performance Points.
Extra experience from all sources except mission objectives is disabled, however players can still earn extra credits by mining Gold.

hello, im new to drg, my question is: what is the point of deep dives?
When you promote (a kind of prestige mechanic after getting a character to level 25) you can start to collect Overclocks, more drastic modifications to how the weapons work than the usual mods. Deep dives reward you one such overclock each.
yeah but they give overclocks only once a week
It's the "fastest" Way, besides promoting again
It's also just fun
The definition of 20-minute adventure, and then you come out an hour and a half later with 1000 kills
Yay! Finished my first solo DD, I guess with all experience I got it was easy.
Gonna try solo EDD some other week (unless connection losses force me to do that earlier).
its honestly way faster than doing missions
like 3 missions with wait times in between
vs a deep dive which usally is like 40 minutes average id say
I mean if you play little a week sure
i forget if it was this week or last... it was like every enemy was coming out in triple amounts? friggin HECTIC

two of them pff
Lightwork
2x drillevator in EDD 
i still dont know how you guys get this info this fast. datamining?
You'd think that info would be stored on GSG's servers
ooooh Hazard 5.5 + 5 resonance... lovely
GSG has an endpoint with the current seed
This is how they get it, conversation attached to this message too
aw no duck and cover
wait, is it Parasites → Swarmageddon again
Damn 2 of em
I'm tired of packing AoE, boss
swarmageddon becomes the new duck and cover this year
More swarmageddon 😭
Hmm either cluster or minelayer
Bring out the sticky fuel honey
Cluster because it's flashier
well at least stage 1 edd isn't sabo
Time to find lobby
Better than sabotage
We truly drillermaxxing with this one
it's time to take your mandatory crowd control pills
Yayyy
idk if its guaranteed tho
We skipped it yay
😮
I kinda hope the devs manually reroll this dive, like they did for that one time when one of the dives had a double industrial sabotage
Three deep scans across the dives + mostly the same hazards as last week's feels kinda repetitive
fatboy is pretty useful on drillvator
Troll seed on EDD third stage, we had to really look for that last crystal
same, make sure you got a drilla to switch between all those tunnels so close & stack on each other
"Double drillevator? How is that allowed?" - my friend
every mission can spawn twice in the same DD except for escort and sabotage. pretty neat
i remember doing an EDD in fungus bogs one or two years ago that had double salvage. during extraction i very vividly recall one of my teammates saying "what a weird fucking deep dive"
4 resonance crystals on edd s2 would fit better
Failed that one yesterday coz we didn't get back to the drop pod in time 
For I think the first time ever
wasnt that the first and only double sabotage edd?
cuz people didnt like the fact they had a double sabotage after weeks of sabotage
Just finished it solo in 39 f mins. Almost wants to cancel the rest.
Those 4 resinites are the worst. And I had not a single issue.
the key is to not immediately call the drop pod and move to a less elevated chaotic area first
doing elite dive now, wish us luck
DEADASS
i did DD yesterday night and we did it in 1h20
40 minutes for the first stage only
genuinely evil cavern lmao
the EDD sucks when you get 2 greenbeards and a gold 3 driller who plays like a greenbeard
What’s the lineup for the standard DD, I’m thinking about doing my first DD today
check pins
oh cool
FR
that first stage is diabolical
Also...you know what was even more diabolical
when i called the drop pod, molly used a route that uses the holes made by the resonance scanners
so uhh that was fun trying to grapple up the thin holes with bugs on my tail
took me a solid hour doing that first stage solo, and the other 2 stages was so fast in comparison it felt like a different game
Alright who is the wise guy that decided to put a betc in a edd deep scan where the tunnels are tiny with a swarmeggedon
i kept getting bombed and blocked by betc's giant hit box
shoutout to the grabber immediately taking me out of the pod, dangling me in front of the hoarder until it started fleeing, then taking me away
collectively got 2300 kills
3 dwarfs EDD
that's what swarmageddon and parasites does to a mf
This week was ez peasy, only issue was first stage DD being a nightmare to navigate
This elite deep dive is so stressful ong, but did it first try with randos. they kept throwing bulks and dreadnaughts at us
This deep dive was not hard at all.
I was able to casually head to all objectives without worry.
This week is miles easier that last weeks
There seems to be a lot less kill traps.
And one less caretaker lmao
Greenbeard drillers would rather do anything but drop c4 on the boss
because apparently speeding up boss fights is for nerds
"Can't believe these fools don't use the same strats I do, ugh"
do they know about it
I no rite, especially on high hazards :V
Starting to hate swarmageddon
Okay, do not spread out on EDD stage 3 if you hear a BET-C
We actually burned through all four IWs as she woke up, killed the two people who were nearby, and the survivors got two bulks and a swarm in a quick succession on their asses

ATTENTION MINERS!

i don't think i got any bulks
bulk on stage 3 ironically helps finding the crystal
Stage three Edd was like navigating an ant colony
how could salt pit be so claustrophobic 
sounds like we all enjoyed this week's EDD
If that dread didn't pop up I wouldn't have trouble
But since it did my damn Minelayer Rocket Launcher + Hellfire Coilgun was only tickling hvt's
so many swarmers
I ended up getting 1150 kills in total this week
On that EDD
not only so many swarmer
but the starting place is pretty tight space
do deep dives gurantee a new overclock?
or just the event that gives u one
or just not at all idk
after completing stage 2 u will get guaranteed OC, only once in a week
both for DD and EDD
actual oc. you will get blank too after stage 1 tho
thanks
magma deep dive is genuinely the worst deep dive ive ever played stage 1 is literally so annoying to play
What's the easiest one to do?
Probably sandblasted corridors
Depends on the mission. As for rock, magma, crystal caverns and radioactive got the hardest one to break.

ATTENTION MINERS!
Planet scanning is now booting up, 24 hours left until new

A day of scanning and we just gon end up with lethal enemies sabotage on EDD 💔
I hope we get easy ones again tomorrow
Escort is fine. Sabotage is supposed to be fine but with mutations it's just painful
Yeah this 3rd stage edd is buns, got betc and bulk on a 3 man
But somehow also the stage that gave the most nitra
The previous 2 didnt seem to have much
its just how nitra spawns in different missions. you can find enough nitra for like 5 resups in 5 crystals deep scan
when its usually 3 resups for 3 crystals deep scan
same with 200 morkite
Honestly i consider bulk in the 3rd stage as a blessing cuz it can carve and widen the claustrophobic cave
Like seriously the tunnel is long and small
we didnt have bulk but there was a betc
I think bet c is fixed
We prob missed a vein somehow on stage 1 & 2 then, nitra was pretty tight
2 resups worth only
yeah its pretty easy to miss it especially in salt pits
cave gen wasnt good this week
There's like 2 supply box in stage 1
Another 2 in stage 2
Like 3 or more in stage 3 but they are pretty further
nah u can find enough for 3 resups in stage 1 and 2
I find like 4 in total of first 2 stage
3rd one is just evil
Like there are many but pretty further
someone called 3rd stage an ant colony and I absolutely agree lol
The tunnel keep spinning around and if you don't have driller it's gonna be running in circles
Should've brought breach instead of vir in that kind of terrain

Elite nayaka trawler on haz 5.5
I don't think those can be elite
But it would be funny if they could
W EDD
The edd seems chill
yeah did it with randoweiser
we got bulk on stage 3 tho
there's always bulk on stage 3
The last stage cannot be rushed
Need cleaning cuz of elite threat
Stage 1 has tons of nitra
Like i got 4 box worth
Yeah i decide to bring ntp cuz i don't want to deal with bs
Turns out it's pretty chill
i got 0 bulks lol
31 mins, not too shabby
i played with spotify in the background for the first time in months and i feel like it makes me play objectively worse 🫠
i think the only input i can give is
watch out for elite grabbers and the clouds of macteras on 3rd stage
Elite grabber in sandblast is gonna drop you from sky
i didnt get caught but i did get 3 spawned
and yeah pairing how big and open that stage is
Bringing NTP to this EDD is like having anesthesia administered while you get a tattoo
Really? I never knew that
How are the dives this week
i was joking about that part if it wasn't obvious lol
Hard
Unmerciful maps I assume
I was planning Driller for the usual and Engi for the Elite
Mactera Plague on stage one and elite threat on the final stage was Hell the second stage when I played last night gave me swarm as well
I see, thanks for the insight
Also got unlucky getting two dreadnoughts on the missions
My suggestion is bring cryo and reliable CC
Although probably don’t do it the way I did cause I brought mortar rounds on gunner and even with friendly fire negotiation I might have been partly responsible for my teammates losing HP
Not looking forward to elite grabbers again lul, at least the caves are bigger here. Last week they kept grabbing my scout and dragging him out of bounds
max haz 5+ equivalent deep dives when
Rogue deep dives
That EDD was goddamn attack of the bulks for me. One on one mission then another one on the last one (thankfully not elite) which nearly wiped
Nitra is full, mission is pretty fast and chill as long as coordinated
stage 3 can be because of bulks (someone got an elite one)
stage 3 has classic mini mule funny bunch of stationary spawns
it's not that bad tbh, just don't go too separate cuz there are leech
i had a funny scout decide to go very far away in the corner and activated spitballer across the room that keep sniping my other team cuz he didn't took care of it
hello peoples. for a 4 player EDD (current one open) -- how does it compares to the average. I'm thinking of doing my first one with a total random loadout with the drink but it depends on how hard it is
it's pretty easy tbh as long as all the class doing it's job
last stage need clearing cuz lots of stationary
just saw a dude true solo'd EDD with scout without pretty much everything
the last one was well hidden ngl
we all had to pretty much separately move across the cave and our gunner came across it
Yeah cuz like if you dont look up ur gonna miss the secret cave floor where that thing was
We searched for like 20 mins and our gunner even quit
seemed fairly standard to me 👀 , though maaybe coming from the other direction would have made it harder to find if i had to guess
do the ice crystals from crystal nucleation scale with weapon damage or should i build for ammo
they scale with weapon damage
the ice crystals gain a bit of damage per tick form damage upgrades and a bit of cold per tick from the cold upgrade
i'd personally take more cold or more ammo because it only starts hitting hard once the bugs are frozen anyway

Holy Christ chat, management is gonna write me up again. I gotta finish those deep dives
Is salvage really the worst objective you can get in a deep dive
sabo and escort
I would say yes. Mostly because you sit in one (usually very unprotected spot) and have to hold the line for a good few minutes. And usually, one wrong turn of events and your entire team is toast. Happened to me quite a few times. 😓
Also. Karl help you if it's this mission type AND haunted cave is also in play. Because someone has to keep the big bug busy while the other three have to hold the line by themselves.
(thankfully Haunted Cave can't spawn on salvage missions or black boxes)
https://deeprockgalactic.wiki.gg/wiki/Mutators#Haunted_Cave
the main thing that haunts my salvage deep dive is bulk
Fucking bullshit.
I got lost connection on edd.
When I was the one getting most kills.
While everyone else failed to do basic skills correctly
Also what is with this seed spamming Bulks?
Funnily enough, I don't think I encountered a single Bulk Detonator on this week's EDD
I guess that's just my luck since that happened in two instances from two different hosts.
Stage 3 spawned a bulk and an elite bulk for me.
Yeah, I was playing the third stage with my friend and told him to look out for Bulk Detonators, because I saw people had mentioned it in this channel before, and then we never got any
Maybe next time once I can find a new game I can get away from bulk spam rng.
I had only one bulk on uplink in my first run and on my second run I had one bulk in mini mule swarm
Bruh.
I just did another random haz 5 and what do you know, 2 bulks at the same time again.
I'd say it's one of the safest by a pretty wide margin. Mini mules give you so much nitra that it becomes very difficult to fall behind on health and ammo for the rest of the dive.
salvage is great because mini mules give nitra and you actually need to coordinate to sweep the entire cavern and then to prep the holding area with c4 and platforms
so long as engi and driller are on the same wavelength and gunner keeps an eye on team health to know when to throw shields the holding section is a breeze
Today I learned that mini mules give nitra
if anyone wants to do the regular deep dive on pc rn i have a lobby open in the US with the server description of "we love having fun and being dwarves" :^)
wanting to go in with 4 people
or is there a better place to send this

No shit like 10 aquarqs or 5 crystal scans? My oh my
no pit jaws x(
awww man i was hoping for 4 pitjaws lmao
Let's play EDD with 3 dwarves under level 100. What can go wrong
Nvm it's still the previous week one
Black box with aquarq swarms and exploders, jolly
Shield disruption uplink also
...I'm being silly, this looks very manageable
possible bulk on black box stage 1 EDD
35 mins let's gooo
bulk edd stage 1
Sounds like it went well
SHIELD DISRUPTION ON HAZ 5.5??
Krill me I am NOT doing allat for 2 blanks and a cosmetic
2 bulks on stage 1 DD
Nah 3 high levels
Damn this was about to be a hope injection for me
I'd do it for 2 blanks and a mineral pack
God that Deep Dive sounds like ass.
This one does seem like a test of team combat ability
I am pretty suspicious on the last stage of the edd
3 mule salvage is always weird swarm and stationary clearing
Yeah a stage 3 edd with shield disruption salvage defense could be sketch
edd with 4 bulks, kekw
it starts with 1 dwarf dying to a silent swarm from mini mule...
I was given a Far Server for EDD.
Somehow I was the last one to not dc other than the host
Repellant Plats are a Requirement to keep the swarm from eating your brains.
On the bright side at least I wasn't cursed with dual Bulk spawns like last week.
do embedded detonators scale with damage
can korlok spawn in deep dive?
Nope.
hesitated for a second there
Korlok is an event with a payoff in materials or experience, and these don't spawn in DD
BET-C is an event that has payoff in giving you fire support in one mission (or it can push you off a cliff
), so it can spawn in DD
they dont but you can still increase their damage using marked for death or with IFG's
hence why you should take the ammo mod
turns out today's edd isn't too bad
didn't find much stationary other than scrambles
and spitballer
-# except for Huulis, desu
How cursed are the DDs and can i play them without one of my fingers
dd isn't too bad
like for me it's the usual
Wdym? Didn't the Korlok seed or whatever give some experience or am I fully schitzo?
The korlok parts do give XP when secured, yes. It's just that events that give XP or Credits don't appear in DDs.
Ah, I see. Thanks, lad!
Not as terrible as it sounds! The passive 30% damage reduction from all enemies really brings the difficulty down.
Time to bring vampire ig
30% damage reduction gives like extra damage protection to something like acid spitters
shield disruption isn't so bad if you keep your back to the wall, check your surroundings regularly, and don't press into unlit territory too recklessly
and also don't run left and right like a headless chicken when there are dwarves behind you shooting at the bugs in front of you
This feels obvious but I swear I do this shit way too much
headless chicken strat works when solo or separated so it's definitely a habit to be conscious of
black box bulk 
And it works in a group most of the time, right up until it doesn't, and you walk in front of a gunner
EDD, 3 man
1 bulk each, stage 1 and 2
1st bulk spawned on first horde, 2nd appeared midway during the drill down
surprisingly 3rd stage is chill, plenty of open area on both mini mules and defend sites
How is this dd and edd like? What should i expect?

hi just completed my first solo elite deep dive im still very much a green beard and i would like some tips since i barely made it out
if this is the wrong place too ask please tell me
Welcome! Plenty of miners here willing to share tips. Solo can be a little different than with a team. Which class?
I play cryo driller
I don’t have any over clocks yet
Cryo driller with wave cooker and axes
For solo I usually go Engineer with Breach Cutter, Smart Rifle, Shredder grenade and one singular strong turret
Executioner OC on Smart-rifle is great at dealing with singular targets and the breach cutter is a strong strong AOE tool that can also shred big enemies
I use Return to Sender and I call it "The Microwave" when I use like 6 shots (which hits twice, so 12) on a big enemy while the plasma trails do their thing
I usually go Smart Rifle, Shard Diffractor and Proxy Mines. I find it pretty good in all situations.
I just love my shredders ❤️
so versatile
So why don't deep dives even count as a single mission for seasonals?
IDK if any of the devs had typed on this in the past, but one thing comes to mind: It was not the design intention with Deep Dives - DDs were designed before Seasons were an update strategy GSG undertook, and DDs already strip the game to bare minimum regarding what's to expect in them in terms of randomized elements (there's very little events in them).
Seasons as a feature usually come along with events that players can encounter in missions, and that clashes with design philosophy for DDs.
It just seems like an oversight. I wouldn't expect them to count as three, but they should still just count as one. Was just sad when we finished it and I found they didn't.
They also don't count for milestones. Was quite disappointed I didn't get progress on the haunted cave milestone when I did a DD with one a while back...
A DD with a ghost is probably one of the worst punishments Hell has to offer.
If it were an oversight, would it had been lingering since Seasonal content inception for a clarification (almost 5 years)? I’d argue it’s a deliberate decision to separate the gamemodes for what rewards they convey.
I think they don't want people grinding quick easy seasonal exp since the seed is set
How do I prepare myself for elite deep dive guys ? .. my main is scout is it possible to solo using him ? 
Some weeks it's easier than others, this week's would be a pain for solo scout I imagine due to the no shield salvage mission as the haz5.5 at the end
I see
how long does a normal deep dive usually take?
usually between 30-50 minutes
i see, thanks

Takes an hour if the greenbeard engi pussies out after getting the weapon overclock and leaves you to handle the third mission with only 3 players
RAGE I TELL YOU
does this happen often?

I would familiarize yourself with the Boltshark to start. It offers incredible flexibility in respect to crowd control and makes long solo holds as scout much more doable. Chem and pharamone bolts will get you pretty far on almost any difficulty. If you have OCs for it even better. My personal favorite pick is fire bolts.
That being said, scout also gets access to a ton of fear inducing weapons which also really helps to keep the pressure off you over time as long as you remember to use it
hey ty fr answering how about a party team ? overclock that i have rn is only ai stabily and double barrel / jumbo shell and gas recycle for zukov
im pretty familiar with hazard 4 lately i think i did more than 100 of those .. but hazard 5 i only did it for about 5 times so far and still died a quite a bit
should i do more hazard 5 mission to get more familiar with the difficulty and do edd after that ?
Aise db is a really solid build its my go to comfy build for scout
The pheromone crossbow is my best friend for all high hazard missions, unless i fancy some fun in which case I'm on special powder

fireworks on stage 3
Three weeks in a row that both dives have Salvage Operation. What did you break @drifting tinsel
im sorry boss it won't happen again
game crashed in middle of edd
Whelp time to swap proton to experimental, hotfix and 10.0 and hope that does not happen again
interesting and unfortunate
I've had no issues with the out-the-box proton for drg tbh, wonder why
what os?
Mint Linux
I was using Proton 9.0, the version I was given by default.
Ah, mint is the Linux I hear the most complaints about games not running/crashing on
might be worth to consider swapping OSes
maybe if it keeps up on other games
like i haven't had any issues running like darksides or big helmet heroes or other games, just seems to be with coop games like drg
i haven't tested in other co op games like killing floor or vermintide or left 4 dead so idk if that's just the default issues on this os
Bazzite (reskinned fedora) is p good, cachy I hear has very few problems, Arch is good, & there's like some others too. I think a friend of mine runs most games out the box on Ubuntu, but like. it's Ubuntu -_-
def is a Linux I hear about having issues with games pretty often
I should get my cousin to try drg on his, see if it works
I did make sure to keep the driver to the nvidia not the open source version. I kept everything updated, no vpn, I have lutris and wine preinstalled. Resetted wifi, the only thing that should be left to change is the os or the proton version.
Yeah I'm on the recommended Nvidia kernel.
oh nvidia, that's out of my jurisdiction lol. Nvidia is a headache and a half, but you can get it working. You've verified the GPU is getting used by the system already? Then yeah, perhaps a proton/os switch is in order. What are some protondb tinker steps for getting drg running on your specs?
Nope first time in 1100 hours
Yeah it is selected as Nvidia. ProtonDB changes seems to be changingwhich vesrion from 9.0 to 10.0 or Hotfix or Experiemental.
So far that's the best I got, I already sent a report to Steam Wine Github, not much else I can do about that front until I get a response back.
drop pod location in stage 1 DD is questionable ..
so many dreadnoughts this week lol
So much nitra in edd
the scarabs made the mission easier by being flying explosives
really? cuz stage one seems like spowder scout heaven
Well, I wasn't using spowder scout
Light-weight mags and volatile impact reactor, for the record
sadge
Okay I set proton to 10.0 and so far no crashed games.
too many damn dreadnoughts
QUESTIONABLE IS ONE WAY OF PUTTING IT
Once again
Greenbeard no repellant plat equals we all die
Dipshit driller brought flamer
They all died a dozen times
you need some help? I got free time
I could hop on too, probably
Yeah
Please host the gaem for me, I am unable to host a game.
@main oak I in pod 1
sure
dd or edd
edd
that's fine
I do not know what's up with EDDs being total snoozefests compared even to some plain haz 5
idk
prolly team comps to an extent ngl
you tend to get better teams on edds I think
at least in my limited experience, I don't rlly do many dds/edds
cuz like, even if you're perfectly capable in h5, it takes a whole nother skill level to be able to solo 4p h5
no drillevator :0
thanks game 

Well the DD was most certainly 😴
dd first stage is probably gonna take a while if there's no driller
was easy enough on a gunner
i didn't say hard
just pretty long way up
yep longgggg way up.
Hi everyone ! I would like to do an elite deep dive soon, do you have any good build for scout ?
I'd go with hipster or TEF as primary
athough this week hipster is better because there are dreadnoughts
for secondary bring something for self defence against small crowds
2123 on grappling hook (1123 if you don't struggle with limited range on the grapple hook)
123 on flare gun because you'll be staying in the same area a lot
3113 on armor
IFG grenade to deal extra damage
Take Deep Pockets, Resupplier, and Veteran Depositor
Any active is fine but the best ones are Iron Will, Dash, and Field Medic. Beast master falls off on 4 player Haz 5.
Take any weapon that deals a lot of weak point damage. Don't worry too much about your weapons because newer scouts should mainly focus on exploring the caves, providing lighting, and extracting unreachable resources over combat. Just shoot the ranged enemies and the dreadnoughts.
Thanks i'll try it !!

Yes sorry 😔
Can you only unlock your overclocks once per week in a deep dive?
2 deep dives and one Matrix Core Assignment.
Each of these gives you (if you successfully complete all 3 stages):
1 blank
1 weapon OC
1 cosmetic OC
Plus whatever class promotions you do, these require 4 missions but give cores too.
And yes, dives only give you blanks/OCs once per weekly dive cycle (resets Thursdayish, see pins for exact reset time in your timezone)

dammmmmmmmmmmm double d&c
oh man speedrun
speed run edd
regular deep dive is a bit sus
i'm about to cry real tears
nah its fine
very sus
eggsssssssss
👀
is the new dive out
yeah
It certainly has the potential
Me when duck and cover
I got Ebonite Outbreak for stage 3 of the DD
How
beats me, but I've put the screenshot in #drg-gallery message
That’s really interesting. PC/Steam version I assume?
Anybody else hit stage 3 of the DD and can confirm whether the warning is D&C or Ebonite?
That was the easiest EDD ive ever done...
yeah
yeah its really easy if your team doesnt muck around to clear each egg 1 by 1
i only got downed because of supply pod dropping in my head
i do it solo 
bosco helps a lot
Yup, PC/Steam
@zenith ember @oblique acorn was the dread on stage 3 of DD a classic/OG dread?
(or anyone else who has run it)
Classic
ty
might have found a bug in the deep dive summary generator tool that caused the D&C/ebonite error this week, will sync up with vioxynteris
sad news, our duck-and-cover detector had a false alarm this week...looks like drg_mission_gen may have a bug / corner case
players are showing 3rd mission of DD with ebonite outbreak as the warning, not D&C
(if anyone actually does get D&C on stage 3 of the DD this week, please ping with a screenshot in #drg-gallery)
i'm cooked (thanks for the report! i'll have to look into that)
Can you tell a monkey wrench from a Glyphid's arse?
Shhh, he's too busy suffering from dwarves making a song about killing glyphids and mushrooms!
what is EDD this week?
Coincidentally during easter event
Missed opportunity to do full eggs
I didn't even do normal dd, just edd, aint no fucking way I am doing morkite, deepscan and then sabotage
meanwhile i'm over here soloing it knowing full well i'm about to have to do a solo sabotage but i can't use driller because of the dreadnought
its only haz 3.5 you'll be fine
yeah it wasn't bad. the og dread is literally a coughing baby on solo.
the most annoying part was probably the fact that the robot tentacles take way more bullets ot kill than they should, but that's not new.
Stage 3 boss-a-palooza is an amusing stage for the deep dive.
theoretically it's possible to use the caretaker's death blast to take out the dreadnought if you can get its shell off at the right timing
it's not the twins though so it wont be easy enough to be practical
Fun fact: the caretaker death blast happens twice. Once when you kill it, then again when it actually explodes. You can use the first blast to strip the shell, then the dread should be open long enough for the second blast to hit it

Anyone have the deets on the Edd this week? I got one chance to play it tonight maybe tomorrow so I wannabe as prepped as I can.
4 eggs 3 mission can probably take less than 5 minutes
Am I the only one desperate enough for oveclocks that I finished both DDs around 6 hours after they came out?
Are u unemployed?
no
I wouldve done the same if i wasnt at work
nah bro I did them right when they came out
I was sleeping back then (mimimimi)
nah did that too
also hours after they came out is usually a good idea, wait a few days and the teams usually gets worse or takes a long time to find for randoms
90 empty cores don't force to hurry, i d say
do you play every class
Yes
2 proms minimum on either
ok hahaha
i guess i've seen a lot of people say it takes too long to get (insert like five or six extremely popular overclocks here) and then i look at their forge menu and they're sitting on like 10 perfectly good alternatives
Still annoyed fat boy was one of my last overclocks even if I don't main engi...
early-mid game me, but now i'm lazy after getting all
i do the EDD asap if it has on site refining and no industrial sabotage
even after I 100% the game I'm excited to do deep dives every week

The Duck And Cover spam is finally back
Yay..........
Most of these look like torture
man i love this EDD. we have bugs in the air, bugs in the air, and bugs in the air. it's incredible really
alright this is gonna be hell
finally a perfect edd to test my playstyle and my build
azure weald 🤮
At least it's consistent...?
This might be roll control stonks actually
curse sabotage, dont wanna change bullet hell just because of it
Deep dives actually look kind of challenging this week. I’m hype
down to run it now?
I’m going to do the regular one like 10 hours from now
ahh ok
Bullet hell should work fine tho
ew IS
alright edd is something ig
i don't think it's hard but it's very long
which is why i don't do it with random
D&C sabo 💀
That elite dive really said "Hope ya like flying enemies"
I thought low gravity gonna be annoying but turns out i dodge everything with ease
Cuz the place is actually pretty wide
O2 warning for heavy extraction stage is cruel lol
Since Molly loves to choose vertical paths there during the extraction
O2 warning is cruel almost on any mission
We almost failed because we had no nitra to call a resupply pod while driller was digging to the drop pod
The first stage is piss easy tho, despite the duck and cover warning
because its haz 3
There was one resinite on the final level that we just couldn't find. we had to strip the place and we found out it was in some hidden corner behind some condensed dirt we didn't see..
Two Duck And Covers hell yeah
Bullet Hell, my saving grace this edd
You can bring up the Terrain Scanner, and look for a perfect black sphere (looking at the terrain sideway or bottom up, so the sphere is outlined/contrasted against the grey terrain).
It’s not quick, but it worked twice for me.
Haha this week's dives look suuuuper long
So that regular deep dive huh 😵💫
The final mission just... kept... going...
I think I got really lucky with where I dug between caves and where I called the pod, the path to the pod was pretty simple
I am not sure if I want to do this week's EDD when stages 2 and 3 are sabotage duck and cover and eggs mactera plague
I thought this, it's not as bad as it looks honestly
Regular deep dive is a bit annoying
O2 on 4 resinite forces you to not split up like usual
Stage 2 is low gravity & (i hope) ppl are more prepared for swarms in Egg Hunt. If a team is bad, i think they'd already be wiped out by Stage 1
Ok that EDD was a little tough. Didn’t have high level squad and we were down our driller for the last phase of caretaker and all of third phase
Mastera and duck and cover are brutal
truly, a lengthy DD.
did anyone else almost get wiped second stage?
almost
we got through DnC waves pretty easily but caretaker fight was very bad because of basically no driller
DnC wasn't fun, but low gravity legit fucked us during the caretaker, there was a whole shitshow where all wills other than mine were used up reviving each other, phase bombs and especially shredders were an actual problem because engineer was always dead, driller died over the top of the caretaker after the 2nd vent phase and so we had to do the 3rd vent manually while having no engineer to deal with shredders
Eventually I died, willed, and got the eye though
Everyone kept dying on the 3rd stage but it was a lot quicker and more clearly winnable than the grueling 40 minute 2nd stage
wtf bro it happened to us too XD
I had a mole tho so it was easier to take out vents on 3rd phase
I had burh and backfeeding module 💀
I went in blind
yeah me too
Lol
shredders are so annoying I cant kill them with clusters
and well ceiling bugs too
how long it took you to finish EDD
we were stuck for 70 minutes
@ocean jewel
1:25:26
yooo!!
@vagrant parrot one more?
long time no see bro
yeah its been so long
bro you still in japan??
nah not anymore
bro do you still work at google
in #drg-gallery
i'll dm, lets play later tho
rip
Barely winning is always the most fun
DD-EDD anyone?
Elite deep dive sucks. Last one is absolute hell
A team of lvl 300+ greybeards got wiped (me included)
Team struggled with the caretaker (nearly got whipped and our gunner was on his 4'th attempt)
Last stage we went bunkered down cause we wren't going though all that again
Kinda lame, but that is just how you sometimes have to play
Its better to pop all 6 eggs at once for the edd
The swarms per egg/mule wave are so dense that 2 eggs or more barely makes a difference to hitting the spawn cap
cool
around the same time i did it solo
i'm guessing i got lucky, i played with two bronze promoted ppl and one gunner who had red + numbers. Was mostly smooth sailing. Got too overconfident and nearly lost on stage 3 though
i ended up being the worst player but i went engi so it was ok
was elite dive
if you know how to use repellent you're ok
the teamwork on stage 2 was exquisite
driller c4, gunner scout shoots red eyes, sentry clears the tentacles
bro this elite deep dive is
absolutely horrendous
holy shit
stage 2 is just
why
ez pz EDD
Good teammates, pretty long because we were 3
Died more by trolling than enemies

ATTENTION MINERS!

Deep Dives
!
We want to remind you that there's only half a week left until our scanners pick up new missions!

My team fighting desperately using mostly single target weapons while im just sludging everything and hiding the whole edd
can't wait for dd reset
_ _
ATTENTION MINERS!
Planet scanning is now booting up, 24 hours left until new
Deep Dives
!

I got through it solo by doing the eggs on stage 2 last and pressing the button immediately after depositing the second egg

ATTENTION MINERS!

Deep Dives

Anyone struggle to find the morkit on DD stage 3? Its a 3 complexity cave that I've ran through 3 times and am still missing 50...
nah
_ _
ATTENTION MINERS!
New
Deep Dives
will be available in one hour!
_ _
wonder if we will get haunted cave cuz it's been a while
haunted cave everywhere
I hope someday they will add possibility to have 2 negative mission effects in EDD at once.
haunted cave during uplink is gonna be interesting if they can add that mutator on every mission
i just want it in regular mining mission so during deep dive, it's easier to get into the drop pod
gnashes teeth in anticipation
it's not a possible combination afaik

ATTENTION MINERS!
New
Deep Dives
are now available!

HIVEGUARD!!!!
IT'S LIKE A FORTRESS WITH LEGS
looks easy
ON-SITE REFINING LET'S GO
doesn't seems too bad
Other than the hiveguards this all seems doable
I just started normal DD almost right after reset, it was in magma core. We managed to make fisrt stage and then session was ended. Now i played DD again and it's in azure weald already, and I get another empty core.
Is it some bug?
you managed to play the one from the previous week
But I finished it during previous week and got all rewards
did you get an empty core from the magma core stage?
Yes
some weird bug where the rewards have reset but the stage didn't I guess
did you join somoene else, or make your own lobby?
Honestly i can't remember already, but i remember i played from 1st stage and get empty core for sure (i had 3 of them after DD, EDD and weekly assignment)
parasites but blood sugar, fair trade-off
DD is speedrun-able. blind 31m which could've become sub 30 or 20 without much sweat
you have to restart the game for deep dives to update
well i started game when its already were 2pm (update time in my zone), mb should've wait one ,ore ,inute or so
did you join lobby or hosted one ?
for this time i joined
yeah maybe host didnt restart the game then
i see
