i'm not sure if i'm unlucky or blind but stage 1 dd took me 20 minutes because the last morkite vein is under the dread branch thing

my game crashed during my dive, crying

Dark morkite makes the regular deep dive so free

proud grail

#

true

proud grail
#

the regular deep dive is free either way

#

I did it solo as scout while trying out a new gk2 oc and had zero problems lol

mossy ridge
#

idk if this happened to you but my team got a random dreadnaught spawn instead of a swarm, unsure if thats seeded

mellow cradle
#

it's not

#

unlucky

Please send help, cant find 20 morkite in 1'st dtage DD

#

is there only 3 rooms including LD?

#

sorry, i was blind and missed one vain in the LD

did anyone else have trouble having the first deep dive morkite

Yep. Scroll up. drillchamp

#

how's the deep dives so far?

#

doing elite now, we'll see how it goes

#

map on stage 2 is not particularly kind

calm badger
#

resinite mass is located way above any reasonable area, a refinery map specialty

daring sandal
#

stage 2 is brutal but doable otherwise

#

even worse because one of the containers accidentally fell

#

had to drill back up

fair beacon
#

i did edd as solo scout
it's not hard just very long

#

probably should've gone with driller but whatever i was testing build

severe pier
#

gonna restart with dark morkite and blitz through it

#

This EDD was HELL.

#

Especially the 2nd stage. Bulk detonators were swarming us like mosquitoes on a hot summer day, not to mention the thousand glyphids crawling all over the walls. I was trying to run mini - railgun and struggled bigtime with the swarmers.

latent trellis
#

I had like 1

#

not much issue

fair beacon
#

i think i had like 3 in stage 2 but that because i was building pipe for 20 minutes+

daring sandal
#

so many bulk dets

zenith ember
#

I only got 1 on stage 2, and my team was taking their own sweet time clearing the stage

daring sandal
#

we got at least one or two each stage

#

almost lost stage 3 because of it

#

stage 2 saved by blood sugars

#

pretty much in-

remote echo
#

I found this morkite under dreadnought vein or smth but couldnt find other one lol

reef pine
#

So the normal dive was pretty easy

#

EDD stage 1 and 3 were fine

#

Stage 2 was horrible with enemies everywhere and we almost fully ran out of ammo

#

I swear to Karl that was a second hidden Swarmageddon warning active

#

Then again we had a scout who still seemed to lack the basics of teamwork despite being nearly lvl 100

it makes it worse for elim/sabo tho

There was still a lot of them I think they were also part of the enemy spawn pool

Hoo boy that edd stage 2 huh

now is stage 1 of normal deep dive just glitched or something cause we couldnt find the last bits of morkite?

#

I am so dang mad.

#

I was hard carrying this team on edd

#

And guess what I got hit with?

#

"Lost Connection"

#

I literally got more kills than anyone else combined.

#

I killed betc edd stage 1

#

I got the recovery after everyone wiped each stage and established plats to help us win.

#

The DD stage 1... morkite was scarce. I've ended with like 201.

merry inlet
#

some of it's hiding in plain sight
doesn't help that this is Azure Weald where everything's blue-green already

Yeah, this biome was makibg it surely harder to see it. Usually it's pretty easy to see it.

#

Where is the morkite in 1st DD stage. I just want to talk

manic estuary
fierce yacht
#

Belive it or not but I did find this before finding a normally generated morkite

#

They gave so much morkite in two other stages that they did not have enough for the 1st one I guess

manic estuary
#

yeah idk why they made it so sparce for the 1st stage

#

pretty sure if you did find those, the last morkite i found was in the starting area, underneath a bridge of sorts

fierce yacht
#

I think it was like 2nd room inside the tunnel that leads around it, but I had to enter from other side of the tunnel to actually notice morkite

sharp cradle
#

Blood Sugar on any mission type where you hover around one area is actually so free

#

By the end, there was enough Red Sugar on the floor to sustain all of Deep Rock's workforce

uneven stream
# remote echo nah its impossible to die there

I died on stage 2 because i stood in the biggest puddle of red sugar around and took 10 seconds to turn the oven off, got assassinated by multiple exploders in them 10 seconds... not my proudest moment

fair beacon
#

I died on stage 2 when i walked out the drop pod and got spawn camped by exploder

#

After that it's just 20 minutes of scout building pipe gameplay

#

This week's deep dives were kinda chill ngl

Especially compared to trash we got last week

true, i think the dd was kinda underwhelming though cause same dreadnought twice and all the morkite

is todays deep dive even possible

i cant find the last morkite in the last section

# old basalt i cant find the last morkite in the last section

imo, either use dark morkite beer or legitimately check each part of the cave.
from what i recalled, there's like 3 parts of morkite that's partially hidden.
One at the start underneath a bridge of sorts
One in the middle in a sub section of a cave
One at the end underneath the dread branch

I wonder whether the new Core Corruption warning can show up in DD

probably not, given that it's more of an objective than a warning

i haven't looked into it too much yet but i did a few missions and it feels more like a lithophage situation

gonna postpone this week's dive message for like 5mins while i make sure nothing in the last patch broke deepdives

it's been a while since i had escort in dd so i don't mind

safe leaf
#

Swarmageddon + elim stage 3

#

Better prepare to speedrun this one, or get measures to counteract HP drain from swarmers at minimal attention drain

#

Conductive Thermals, Fire(/cryo?)+Tazer bolts might be in high demand

#

Engi might want unstable stubby, gunner minigun+coil...

Driller is in bad position

CWC is half as effective because REZ, cryo indirectly weakened

Flamer without CT weakened, because elim

Sludge also weaker because swarmageddon

...some sort of ice spear/storm and EPC build then...?

Fire comp here would have to bank a lot on CT, otherwise I'd try cryo comp

Warning for stage 1 of this week's DD, beware of airborne q'ronar younglings

might just be my luck with the swarm then

Got bulk on third stage too (edd)

Almost when we already popped the cocoon lol

Would be painful if we had done it

i meant dd though

i got 2 even, one on start swarm and one during ommoran stage 1

was running embedded detonators for the dreads though so no problem

Just completed both Deep Dives with some randoms (to those randoms, y’all were fantastic to play with, I only wanted to do the standard one, but y’all were so fun I wanted to do the Elite just to hang with you a bit longer) and they weren’t that bad, it was my first ever completed EDD (I have tried an EDD before, died on stage 3) but overall, pretty fun

DD randoms are not fun to play with

#

Just ran one and got a Leaf Lover who was hellbent on starting everything without anyone else being ready

#

They were completely unresponsive outside of their antics, so I had to kick them

#

The other guy was just as unresponsive, felt like they barely had a working keyboard and I almost had to kick them as well because they kept standing on top of Doretta during the heartstone's cage phase until I started yelling at them

#

Easily the most miserable experience I've had in this game in recent memory

What would you all do in an EDD and one of your teammates double dips without permission?

We failed miserably, but yeah that's fair enough

I don't think I'm ever doing a deep dive again outside of a coordinated team

atomic vessel

Though

This weeks edd somebody double dipped my resup TWICE

But anyway got through it, I became pretty good at dodging dreadnoughts' attacks

#

Ended up with only 3 downs against 40 in total for other teammates

ey whatnow

#

2 stolen resups, and they still got 40 downs

#

It sucks to say it, but lately I've just been doing deep dives solo if I want to just get it over with

atomic vessel
#

I am very slow when I play solo lol

#

I can't progress the mission if I didn't explore every corner

fair beacon
#

the reason why i play solo on edd nowadays

atomic vessel
#

So having a team kind of motivates me to speed up because I don't want to make other people wait lol

fair beacon
#

might play solo on dd as well cuz i keep meeting shitty people in there too somehow

atomic vessel
#

Ig I am just very lucky with randoms 😭

fair beacon
#

i mean in the last few weeks, i met someone on dd who got chickened out on third stage even tho we didn't go down much and some people who just really sweaty on normal dd
i don't bother finding out what random i will get on edd cuz in the past, it's just not worth
i'm talking about back then when edd is like the easiest mission (2 stage 200 morkite and 1 stage 4 egg hunt) but somehow with random still fail and when i do it solo, it went really smooth

#

i know people have varied skill level but sometimes i feel like they don't even to want to have fun

#

a bit of disclaimer this is my personal experience

atomic vessel
#

Oh, I remember how once I thought "ez pz" when there was a 200 morkite stage on edd but then we almost lost even though we easily went through harder stages lol

#

Or was it 250

#

Does morkite primary quota vary for deep dives?

uneven stream
#

Can do

#

Though 200 seems much more common

modded difficulty exists if vanilla peak is too easy

#

I rarely chat here, just wanted to pop in to say that EDDs with randoms has been my main way of playing the game for the last few years, and it's usually a good time

#

I'll check here on the weekly reset to see what the new missions are like, and hop in if they look interesting, often deliberately searching out lobbies with lower-level players

#

the chaos factor with less experienced people is fun, and we still win like 90% of EDDs I've played

fine, whatever

#

i have over 3000 hours logged in this game but i guess im not a real greybeard then

#

i hate the concept anyway

calm badger
#

this edd left my team with zero spare resuppies by the end

#

there were a LOT of things to kill

solemn hollow
#

also something that never happens solo lmao

calm badger
#

lmao for sure

solemn hollow
next blaze
#

I've rehashed what to do in most situations with every class and every weapon type that most of the gunplay and decision making is stale now, so I haven't touched solo play in at least 2 years and never intend to again, but the organic chaos that comes from playing with others is sincerely interesting still

#

I can't speak for everyone, but the vast majority of people I've played with appear to be trying to play into their role, and while you get the occasional clueless person, that's kind of what makes the game what it is for me

#

like one of my favorite things is going for a risky revive in the middle of a battlefield, knowing I'll take a hit or two but still ultimately be safe, and seeing them trying to do the same later

#

it really adds to that feeling of comradery, and even when someone's new to it and misjudges, going down when attempting to revive me, it's still refreshing to see them going for it

#

anyway, that's been my ted talk dderp

solemn hollow
#

yeah i dont even play outside of the weekly EDD run at this stage

#

even considering dropping that at this point. the only reason i'm still doing it is because i haven't missed one for over 3 years now and it'd feel like a waste to drop it now

#

i dunno if it has anything to do with me being over the game though. feels like the only thing that's ruined it for me is trying to get along with other players lmao

#

which is frustrating for me because like, i don't have any "rules" for my lobbies other than just, do your best i guess

#

i have a few mods that i use that i'm happy to turn off if people feel like they're too cheaty but most people would rather just sulk about it than have an adult conversation and find a compromise 🤷

solemn hollow
next blaze
#

yeeee that's fair, though I'm curious if the mods change who you see in your lobbies much

#

I also don't type much in lobbies other than to joke, so I'm usually just vibing even if things are going wrong

#

it still gets stressful when I find out someone took a resup I was saving for a lil later though, haha

solemn hollow
#

like one guy got real passive aggressive about like, a mod that basically permanently applies the effect of rocky mountain

#

so i was like "ok, i'm happy to turn it off but you've gotta let me know when you want to play before i start the lobby i guess"

#

then he just left without any further conversation

#

like what am i supposed to do, run my lobbies without mods for people that most likely won't even turn up an overwhelming majority of the time?

#

most people do not care about the mods i use since the effects are so minimal that it basically still feels like vanilla anyway

that was a fucking lie

#

Maybe I wasnt in the mood or smth, but it was really hard

#

maybe cuz scout disconnected at the start idk

#

1:05:26 might be the longest DD/EDD time I had recently

tawdry hemlock
#

The EDD was crazy not gonna lie, in total our entire team got knocked 49 times lol.

cursive vapor
#

downed at the last stage of the DD while going back to the drop pod 😭

#

both these DDs are kinda brutal for their respective difficulties this week

#

as a solo gunner no less, im sad. BOth the DD and the EDD were long as FUCK lmao

old widget
#

Driller w/scorching tide is a good fit for EDD this week, ran it with a CWC diffuser ray temp shock build, good times.

#

also during salvage on 3rd stage, strategic placement of C4s during defense makes hot rock which bugs will avoid, good for funneling (esp. if your engi drops at the extraction on stage 1 notnice )

jade osprey
#

Oh my god dont take engi on this deep dive if you run it solo

#

Spent an hour and a half on it only to lose in the final mission because I wasn't able to get back to the drop pod in time

#

Banked on following Molly only for her to follow the resinite mass' path back up, ignoring the two oppressors that passed by her to get to me

#

At least I got my blank and weapon matrix cores...

#

If I do attempt this again, it'll be with Driller

orchid flicker
#

it's all about spin

vagrant trench
#

do i always get matrix cores when i run any deep dive?

#

or is more like RNG

You always get matrix cores

#

Is this week's EDD favorable to solo engi with EMD and Hyperprop?

solemn hollow
#

uhhhhh idk about hyperprop

#

i'm sure you could if you tried really hard

#

also i'd use mcao instead of emd but like, whatever

wheat edge
#

Bloody Bulk Det spawned right as I called the pod on the last stage. Lost track of Molly and lost the whole mission so now I have to do this crap all over again. steevenolikeydead2

cursive vapor
#

was a chill DD up to that last stage, 3 resinite + 2 resonance crystals makes for a looong mission, esp in crystalline caverns where it takes three entire pickaxe hits to carve terrain and 60+ seconds to dig out resinite

#

EDD was pretty crushing between the nemesis on stage 1 and rival presence on stage 3 + our gunner abandoned at the start of stage 3

west fjord
#

hai guys i haven t play in so long and i never was really into knowing what's good can someone drop me in private a build for the gunner or driller in dm so i m not a burden for other players?

jade osprey
#

I'll be attempting it again as driller 🥴

#

Or in a group

cursive vapor
#

as a solo gunner that was like an 80 minute long DD too only to die in the last 5 mins, thats what happens when you call the drop pod too quick after extracting the resinite and trigger a swarm tho ig

jade osprey
#

Yeah I tried to use my platforms as engi to follow her up the hole

cursive vapor
#

oof

jade osprey
#

Only for two oppressors to spawn right there

cursive vapor
#

I managed to get up to where the drop pod is it was just the disorientation that killed me at the end

#

cause I kept running into dead ends

jade osprey
#

Damn. Yeah that cave layout didn't do us any favors

atomic vessel
#

Because it is usually the highest point of the cave

#

So even if Molly chooses vertical path, 3/4 classes won't have any problem with it

#

Because it is easier to go down than up

#

Also the fact that cave for heavy extraction is a loop allows you to reach starting cave faster

jade osprey
#

True

#

I'll remember that next time

charred juniper
#

yeah, but then you have to walk up to the start, and back down again

atomic vessel
#

At least you are not limited with 5 minute countdown and constantly spawning hordes when coming back to starting cave

#

And again, loop cave generation is very helpful for that

charred juniper
#

that's a fair point

#

also tho, a dd is p low haz, as long as you just keep running the swarm can't get you

#

you just outrun it

atomic vessel
#

At least when I play solo heavy extraction, I don't end up scattered in the cave like teams of randoms like to do 😆

#

So I have my time to explore that loop in normal order

#

And the last resinite I send is always very close to the start

atomic vessel
#

Because I need my time to search for the path on the map when I can't follow Molly 😭

#

And as a solo it becomes hard to find enough time to determine where to go

cursive vapor
#

Resinite caves are always crazy vertical and nonlinear too which makes navigation uniquely difficult imo, esp cause they aren’t like aquarq or egg caves where it’s usually one giant room

atomic vessel
#

Tbf I have more problems navigating in 8 egg caves lol

#

Especially in biomes like hollow

#

For resinite I try to zoom out and rotate the map trying to find the connection between where I am and where I need to go

#

But as I said, it takes some time

reef pine
#

I hard to carry my team during the EDD

#

They went down a lot

#

They didn't really seem to understand positioning and ran into the big caves, getting downed by everything

#

Had to slowly clear out the cave before I could save them

#

They weren't that bad overall, just lacking in some crucial skills

sullen mural
#

Did the deep dives, standard was fine, droppod crushed the nemesis, but the elite was tough, we got stomped in the first part by the nemesis, before I realized I could switch to driller and use Scorching Tide (my beloved) to one shot the nemesis

other than that, good Deep Dives

tacit jungle
#

Lucked out into a tryhard gold 3 team and we kinda sleepwalked through the EDD. Only time we almost wiped was trying to shut down the stage 3 rival hub under fire from 2 spitballers and a surprise wave. The drop pod sequences were trivial between the weak spawn table and me platform cheesing the bug pathing.

Is this the right place to ask about deep dives? I wanna ask, if I’ve done a deep dive for today, can I do it again the same day?

neat wing
#

yes , right place !!yes you can do it many times ..but the core's will only be given one time on successful completion of each stage

i think the edd difficulty is exaggerated lol

its not that long nor dangerous

There was SO MANY OF THEM on that last stage of the EDD

and then my partner on VC is just relaying that there's MORE of the bastards

You can use https://drgapi.com/#/v1/Deep_Dives_v1_deepdives_get to get the seed each week. There used to be some google docs floating around with all the historical seeds but I'm not finding any that are still updated

This week's seeds are:

Why do recent deep dives seem so long aaarrgggf😭 😭😭

#

At least theres no on site refinery

#

safe leaf
#

I lowkey feel like Sludge Blast is going to perform the best of driller primaries on this one

#

Duck and Cover and elite threat looks dirty for engineer though

The former warrants RJ250 or VIR magma for ranged AoE ignition which the latter resist

VIR direct fire is more functional but is less ideal vs stage 1 mactera

ECR + AoE build Automatic Beam Controller...?

Actually LURE+Fat Boy may excel for once

#

On Gunner I feel like NTP might be best all rounder for this one

Scout... hmmm, Precision Terror may be good for this one but some electricity source should be brought vs elite bulks; I'd avoid both incendiaries and cryogenics

quite chill tho, i expected elite grabber but didnt spawn

safe leaf
# old widget sounds like scout has their work cut out

Sounds more like gunner at that rate

Scout can eliminate individual spitters or septics, a carpet of them requires heavier firepower

Same for awake stationaries, proactive shield on an exposed vantage point, leadbursters down nearby barragers' throats and mop up remainder with minigun/PBM/JFH/elephantround/VB spam

#

Vartoks specifically are definitely scout job tho

#

Cryo bolts can freeze them even if they're indestructible btw

#

Won't make them shatterable but they'll stop shooting for a while

All good tactics, yup

I have two questions about deep dives: How long do they take? and How hard are they? I find hazard 3 missions frustrating and often disappointing.

wraith shard
#

Up to an hour, usually 30 - 45 minutes.
Hazard 3/4.

#

Its a normal one

#

Elite is 4-4-5

sour mirage

It sounds like they might not be fun for me.

scarlet herald

i feel like it should be more of an explanation as to what exactly deep dives are

#

i just had a greenbeard join my dive not even knowing there were stages

#

You're having troubles with Hazard 3?

sour mirage
#

Well, I have survived a few hazard 3s, but usually it ends in a TPK.

wraith shard
#

Better not go dds then

#

Surprising, though there's only one way to improve.
Deep Dives are basically challenge runs, by themselves.

I found one which turns you into a living turret lol

solemn pulsar
#

I got it too

#

It's decent, you can still jump around and fire

covert juniper
#

I just did my first normal deepdive, I found it to be feel like haz 2/3. Anyone else or did i just have a bad run and maybe didn't get the mission mods that make it really hard

solemn pulsar
#

Normal deep dive felt really easy

#

And Elite one didn't feel like haz5, more like haz4

sick wren
#

Deep Dive really doesn't feel like "endgame" content. It's like haz 2-3 mission

sonic forge
#

I was hoping elite deep dives would be haz 5-5-5.5

#

For the stages

wispy elk
#

Are the deep dives out yet?

sonic forge
#

Yes

wispy elk
#

Oh wow. Today? Or did I just miss them because I'm blind and dumb?

harsh steppe
#

Today.

#

8 hours ago

wispy elk
#

Niiiiiiiiiiiiice.

#

RCKNSTN, etc.

sonic forge
#

Are there any plans to make deep dives harder

sick wren
#

Or at least make normal deep dives not necessary to join elite version. I don't want to waste up to 1 hour of my life on it

sonic forge

#

You have to complete a regular Deep Dive once.

#

I think you’ll manage.

sick wren
#

Thought you need to complete it every week

thorny tide
#

Regular deep dives are easy af

wraith shard
#

Yo real quick

#

I got a clean OC - Homebrew Powder, says "80% to 140% damage per shot" on the equip screen but the craft description words it as 80 to 140 MORE, so which is it? XD

#

Hit me with an @ if you know, I may step away from the PC

#

Man, that stage 2 on the elite dive

sick wren
#

Yeah, it was brutal

#

Engi was a god tho

#

3 stars gold engi carry it solo

solar dirge
#

(elite) deep dives really need some way of being optionally more challenging, today's one felt like haz 4 throughout

stray fern
#

I was playing the normal Deep Dive today, and the game claimed I failed. I got knocked out of the drop pod last second while the pod was going to the surface. I was playing solo. Such bs.

#

In normal games it is still considered a victory, but apparently not for deep dives

real lily
#

after 7 tries of elite deep dive, our then team of 3 after one left, completed the elite dive finally in 51:31

#

i need a break lol

white rapids
#

I just beat elite deep dives on a team of three. After the second floor, the third feels like a victory lap.

#

So damned proud.

real lily
#

is that you Nonsilent?

white rapids
#

Ayy Zaku

real lily
#

lol

white rapids
#

Yea thats me!

real lily
#

man that 2nd drop

white rapids
#

Hell yea man, we did spectacularly

real lily
#

after those 7 tries i need a break lol

#

at least we didnt give up

white rapids
#

Oh me too man. That was a dang journey.

#

Imma go play Link's Awakenning, lol

real lily
#

lol much more relaxing

solemn pulsar
#

I ended both deep dives with over 500 nitra, I think it needs a big nerf.

real lily
#

our team barely ended with enough

white rapids
#

There was a alot of nitra tbf

real lily
#

we ended with 76 nitra

white rapids
#

But we used all of it, and just barely made it

real lily
#

for 3 ppl

white rapids
#

Alright, Zaku, it's been a pleasure. Imma go rest, lol

real lily
#

kk lol

cloud flax
#

sooo

#

on a deep dive

#

lmfao

sick wren
#

Do they have same map all the time for Deep Dives for the whole week?

#

2nd mission for elite is so much worse than other 2

#

I mean same map design, same danger mods

real lily
#

the map seeds refresh after X time

#

but the current seed stays the same and the rewards until completed

#

same with layout of each map and resource location

tender axle
#

chill guys this is the first week of deep dives, they haven't even released a dive with the new modifiers yet, i get that it's not that hard (yet)

real lily
#

rewards can only be claimed once a week from what it says ingame

tender axle
#

well

#

except the elite dive 2nd floor

#

apparently that's really bad

real lily
#

yeah man

#

took 7 tried

#

lol

#

tries*

#

then 3rd drop was cakewalk

tender axle
#

The objectives were really short this week so maybe if they make it take longer the dives will get harder

young oyster
#

Do DD's have to be done all in one sitting?

tender axle
#

Basically yeah

young oyster
#

oof

#

guess I'll wait until tonight to do one then lul

#

don't wanna have to dip out halfway through and have to redo

tender axle
#

There's loading screen in the middle of missions with a continue button, if you're playing with friends you can just agree to not hit it till everyone is ready

young oyster
#

oh ok

#

thx

tender axle
#

It doesn't really work if you plan on leaving for work or something and coming back

#

Unless you have some weird friends

lusty schooner
#

lol

wraith shard
#

I SURE DID FUCKING ENJOY 3 GODDAMN BULKS IN THE LAST MISSION AS A SOLO PLAYER

#

Still made it tho

lusty schooner
#

xD

#

awesome

scarlet plinth
#

So I know you can only get rewards for deep dives once a week, but can you just play deep dives multiple times for the fun?

next pebble
#

yes

scarlet plinth
#

I'm stuck at work still

#

Nice

static swallow
#

What happens if you get downed and your friends leave you on the pod while on the 1/2 stage?

#

I haven't played deep dives yet and I would like to know

#

Would the drop pod not leave? What would be the outcome?

#

ping me if y'all have any answers!

cold lark
#

I'm curious about that myself

runic haven
#

@static swallow you lose a friend

sullen rock
#

Minus 5 friend points

static swallow
#

eh, I don't need friends anwa-

#

@sullen rock oh

chrome forum
#

Mission Failed : Dwarf left behind

static swallow
#

@chrome forum is this true?

#

is this the biggy truth?

chrome forum
#

It's not the biggyest truth

#

but I'm not sure if the pod will leave or not

static swallow
#

Personally, I don't think the pod will leave

#

anyway, please ping me with answers! I must know

cold lark
#

my guess is it leaves anyways but you respawn in the pod on the next mission

static swallow
#

hmm

cold lark
#

that would be the boring guess tho

#

would be neat if you couldn't leave anyone behind

static swallow
#

It would be cool if the dwarf that was left behind would be dragged down by the glyphids and put in the organic material, ya' know, the purple stuff surrounding the dreadnought eggs

sullen rock
#

You probs just dont get the full team survives bonus and the loser loses out on some stuff

static swallow
#

But that's boring though!

#

Gimme an extra challenge!

#

I wouldn't mind clawing my friend out of the purple, organic material.

cold lark
#

next stage you gotta find and break your dwarf buddy out of the bug prison

static swallow
#

bug prison

#

that's where karl is

lethal topaz
#

Karl is a concept that goes through galaxies

sullen rock
#

mines organic material, Driller rag dolls out

static swallow
#

Woah there @lethal topaz, what's a mighty miner?

sullen rock
#

Inferior to cave crawlers H U Z Z A H

lethal topaz
#

At least my ass doesnt get chewed by dreadnoughts 24/7

vague island
#

The way it should work is any dwarf not on the pod at the end of a stage doesn't get the core from that stage. Maybe a bit too harsh, but it would encourage no dwarf left behind

#

Or simply make it that deep dives require no dwarf left behind

sullen rock
#

Boi I'm working overtime killing dreadnoughts, I had to make a guide cause ppl don't know how to kite properly.

red vapor
#

hey, all. i found a battery pack in a mission, but i thought these weren't getting added until update part 2. i can't stow it in molly. what do?

sullen rock
#

Find batteries

#

You need two to insert then get a matrix from it

red vapor
#

aha!

#

thank you, friend

sullen rock
#

It was machine events that weren't getting added

#

Idk what they look like cause I haven't found the batteries yet but they spawn in the mission

red vapor
#

the pack is big and has a mini-mule leg like glow around it. bah. can't post a screenshot

sick wren
#

@static swallow he will be revived next stage with half health

quartz timber
#

Can non-promoted dwarves join privately hosted deep dives? Half of my group doesn't play as much as the other half...

sick wren
#

You can join friends in Elite Dives if you haven't finished normal Deep Dives, so I guess yes, you can join even without promotion

vague island
#

Incorrect. I tried to join without promotion and it said cannot join

#

Had to switch to a promoted dwarf to get in

sick wren
#

They need to invite you

vague island
#

Hmm, maybe that's what it was

#

I tried to join with the discord invite and it said can't join

sick wren
#

Maybe for promoted dwarfs it's different tho

vague island
#

Yeah, I'm not sure. If you're friends don't play as much you don't really need to be doing deep dives though

vital yarrow
#

So, I gotta launch the assignment in order to do a deep dive?

modest knoll
#

Im sure this will have already been asked but it says my weapon mastery isn't high enough to equip an overclock, does that mean I need to get more upgrades for it?

runic haven
#

@vital yarrow No, just use the terminal

real lily
#

@modest knoll maybe you need to unlock all perks for said gun?

runic haven
#

@modest knoll yes

vital yarrow
#

I kind of didn't see a deep dive mission anywhere on the terminal?

modest knoll
#

yeah gotcha

#

thanks bros

vital yarrow
#

And in the server list either

runic haven
#

@vital yarrow It is near the forge

vital yarrow
#

uhhhhh

boreal badge
#

I just did the 8 missions that rewarded me a core mod and a core cosmetics, now i have access to the weekly 3 missions for promoted?

#

My question is more, does that 8 missions was required for Deep dive or not?

runic haven
#

dont think so

lusty schooner
#

Nope

#

It’s for another mission

covert frost
#

damn it's hard in solo with driller, it's difficult to kill the bulk

boreal badge
#

@lusty schooner Do you know what that unlock? the guys disbanded the team and cannot see the popup

lusty schooner
#

I haven’t unlocked it yet but lemme find the patch note

boreal badge
#

Oh if its on patch note i will read again

lusty schooner
#

I will PM you it

vital cloud
#

is it just me or is the performance bad

#

i mean the fps has gone way down

lusty schooner
#

Not for me

vital cloud
#

i have a gtx 1080

lusty schooner
#

Fun the game in fullscreen, not windowed fullsceen

#

Ya I got a 1060 and I run ultra no prob

#

Run*

vital cloud
#

and i get 50 fps

#

in some cases

lusty schooner
#

I get 60, so somethings up

tribal ridge
#

I never drop below 140s

#

its probably the lighting

lusty schooner
#

I put max FPS at 60

vital cloud
#

hmm will have to check

#

i should also update the graphics drivers

kindred rapids
#

you guys will have to set fullscreen in game, then find the games INI file and make sure all 3 "fullscreen" in the file are set to =0

#

SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\Deep Rock Galactic\FSD\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor

#

GameUserSettings.ini

windowed full screen, 1080 and never below 150 fps

For science, you cannot bring a Bet-C with you on a Deep Dive

unborn nexus
#

Too bad

indigo jungle
#

unless I'm mistaken there was a bug in our deep dive where betc mines spawned on the mission after

#

but no betc

charred hollow
#

Someone may have asked this already, but.

#

If we do a Deep Dive, complete it, we can do it again right? Do we still get rewards for doing it again? Or no?

tribal ridge
#

you dont get matrix cores no

#

you get the gold yes

#

gold and xp

#

but thats it

charred hollow
#

Thanks.

livid portal
#

So how do I change union?

tribal ridge
#

reset save or wait till the end of the month

robust obsidian
#

hey, quick question

#

are deep dives locked to once per week?

fringe kettle
#

the rewards are

robust obsidian
#

ah

#

so you can keep doing them, but you can only get rewards once per week

#

ok, thanks

fringe kettle
#

yup

sick wren
#

You can get cores onece per week, but crafting materials you will get after every DD

tender axle
#

I'm also dropping below 60 sometimes, just got a 2060 so maybe the game is a cpu hog for certain things

kindred rapids
#

lots of particles, dynamic shadows, dynamic lights. can also be lots of soft particles

surreal nexus
#

oof

#

I just noticed this channel's existence

#

👀

chrome elk

I feel like the "Going Lethal" achievement should apply to Elite Deep Dives
