we've been looking for 1 hour. 149/150

Did the streamer do it solo?
waxen terrace
yes
analog brook
wait, is there only 149 morkite in teh DD? is it only doable with dark morkite?
stuck hamlet
apparently so
been doing dd2 3 times, always short of either 1 or 2
rustic temple
doable with dark morkite
tried it by fast forwarding computer time by 1.5 hours to get dark morkite beer
analog brook
wish i could do that, ps4 gang has to wait a few hours
also, can we start a petition to remove mactera plaguw from hte game entirely?
quaint ore
i definetly bet stuff can spawn under the ommoran since when i played DD stage 2 there were exploding shrooms under the ommoran bed
old widget
consoles often have different cave generation, has someone confirmed the DD stage 2 morkite shortage on PS/Xbox?
analog brook
ooo, ill do it
quaint ore
also, can we start a petition to remove mactera plaguw from hte game entirely?
ever heard of rival presence, imagine that but with rival tech 
old widget
I popped in to #playstation and didn't notice any complaints

rival presence as a DD modifier would be pretty cancer
analog brook
nah i saw the trailer, ive never had problems with any rival bots, but shredder hell is going to be a problem
old widget
patrol bots on haz 5 are no joke, rival presence in an EDD would be a fun challenge
waxen terrace
by DD i mean EDD

the tentacle monster would be a pain

i really hope the tentacle monster isn't also tied to rival presence, and its like a machine event that just shows up randomly
fossil lagoon
lol i failed the dd
analog brook
also, is it me, or is there literally no nitra in the first mission of edd
fossil lagoon
in the last mission, dreadnought + 2 bulks + explo inf in point extraction is just impossible solo as scout

i think the nemesis is gonna be a random boss spawn like korlok or bet-c, but just a guess

i dont know if it helps, but if u carry a little extra over from the first mission u should be good
analog brook
it doesn't?
jade epoch
only nitra and gold perhaps
analog brook
well, im bouta find out
waxen terrace
yea you dont carry over morkite
scenic finch
Check your left pocket for the morkite.
wraith shard
Pray to get the Dark morkite buff for this deep dive

blissful sundial
make sure the scout didn't eat it
waxen terrace
if we carried over morkite, then morkite mining wouldnt need to exist for subsequent stages
jade epoch
well I mined every single speck of every vein and gathered the quota
old widget
For the morkite issue on stage 2 of DD:
- The issue only seems to be on PC, not console
- You can work around it on PC by moving PC clock forward in 30 minute increments until you get Dark Morkite in the bar
- Better to just restart and get Dark Morkite than keep looking
jade epoch
but for christ's sake it should be impossible if they didnt write a shitty generation aglrotihm

I dunno, DRG's cave generation is nothing short of magical, it's the secret sauce of the entire game

but there are occasionally corner cases and bugs, definitely not a shitty algorithm tho
blissful sundial
This is the first time I've ever seen this

generate until morkiteValue =< 200.
truly magical xD
blissful sundial
It should spawn more than enough morkite
analog brook
it can be shit and a little repetitive at times but at least the know how to make a grenade not break the game
scenic finch
generate until morkiteValue =< 200.
truly magical xD
They probably do this.
Just you cant find it.
jade epoch
that's a possibility but well... we spent a ridiculous amount of time on it already so i'd hazard a guess if it were here we would find it
old widget
they definitely do this, there are parameters visible to modders etc. that specify min/max mineral spawn for each mission type/complexity/etc.
scenic finch
you passed the stage you said didnt you? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
analog brook
someone said it was in the heart stone

just DD

The morkite is beyond the environment.

im checking console rn
old widget
Is it just on pc or consoles as well
just PC so far, no reports on console. console often produces different cavegen from same seed (memory limitations, etc.) so not a big surprise
formal thicket
If morkite has issues I guess u can wait for dark morkite
scenic finch
Morkite is stored in the gunk seed.

How much morkite did you end up with?

Any veins in the heartstone room?
arctic sorrel
Did you get the one just over the geiser between start and first stop?
azure dune
I'm wondering if the devs are working on this because there's been no live stream today so far
analog brook
theres one vein in heart room, one in goop, one in refuel room, and like 2 or 3 in start room
arctic sorrel
Would've been funny to see them getting softlocked tho
azure dune

I assume Dark Morkite Brew doesnt affect Bosco?
azure dune
I assume Dark Morkite Brew doesnt affect Bosco?
Bosco doesn't collect Morkite. If he mines and you collect, still applies
arctic sorrel
I found .4 morkite from a vein I don't remember mining
arctic sorrel
Bosco doesn't collect Morkite. If he mines and you collect, still applies
I don't think this is correct. The way I heard it works is that both pots o' golds and dark morkite apply on pickaxe mining
restive trout
Bosco doesn't collect Morkite. If he mines and you collect, still applies
Ah. I thought one has to mine it themselves for the bonus. Like Golden Pot. Good to know.

I don't think this is correct. The way I heard it works is that both pots o' gol...
I'll have to look into this. I always thought that as long as the player picks it up it applies. Always seemed to work for me, maybe it was just large chunks
buoyant wing
it's most noticeable on pots o' gold but yeah it only works on pickaxe swings
azure dune
Yeah official site says 'Does not affect Boscos mining', so you're right. Not on Bosco, only on pickaxe swings
buoyant wing
common tactic I use is overmining while another person collects if they don't have pog
they get the massive chunks while I swing
restive trout
Okay. So I gotta do the mining myself then.
buoyant wing
or vice versa

Any worse than the Haz 5.5 Shield Disruption in Hollow Bough or the 5.5 Haunted Cave in Salt Pits from the past few weeks?
arctic sorrel
Yeah I'd see so
I cleared both of those solo first try
this one I got destroyed on all stages
radiant belfry
restive trout
Bosco can destroy the peak of the beam pillars with its rockets. Neat.
azure dune
Yeah I'd see so
Interesting, the shield disruption wasn't bad for me but the haunted cave needed a few tries for me. Gotta bring my A game this week
arctic sorrel
Ok I run the DD again to check, there is a bugged vein
thankfully .4 of it survives, so I can get exactly the 150 morkite needed
the vein is on the back of the heart room, on the left side
Good luck miners
Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hx_OjpQPiKU

Oh really? That sucks a lot.
violet warren
I thought it wasn't possible for deep dives to be unwinnable
Can the devs re-generate the seed to spawn more morkite at some point?
waxen terrace
when the devs haven't done their weekly dd stream yet hmmmm
arctic sorrel
Need dark morkite
Not true
upper geyser
You don’t need dark morkite but without it you are squeezing the tube of toothpaste for every last drop
restive trout
I usually just cut the tube off and scooped the last bit of paste with my brush.
stiff prairie
guys does stage two of the new dive even have enough morkite?
sweet pulsar
guys does stage two of the new dive even have enough morkite?
Just spend an hour on it, was at 149/150
restive trout
Perhaps. Some say so. But others dont.
stiff prairie
yeah were on 143
restive trout
Its just enough for 150 appparently.
I drank dark morkite beforehand.
If you scroll up youll see that you arent the only one.
soft token
is that going to get fixed or are we stuck with that until the next deep dives roll out
viscid idol
Deep Dives don't give extra experience from enemies and minerals mined??
gray bluff
did they fix the regular deep dive yet?
vital sluice
Deep Dives don't give extra experience from enemies and minerals mined??
Correct. You get credits from the gold you mine (and keep any minerals you manage to get from hoarders) but no xp from anything (also the credits generated are not what you would expect from hazard levels)
spice tree
so far every time I do a deep dive in a biome with exploding plants the exploding plants are everywhere. Is this intentional?
vital sluice
There's no survival bonus either so definitely ditch your 3 friends to survive, even on stages 1 and 2 (they get auto-rezzed at the start of next stage)
viscid idol
Ah.... I wasted a lot of time collecting all the Morkite since I drank dark morkite as well. But I guess from the thread here it seems that it was the correct way to do it anyway
vital sluice
Collecting any extra morkite is a waste, even if the next part of the DD has morkite. It vanishes for some reason out of your inventory. Why does DRG pay for a material that disappears before it gets back to base? Who knows. Maybe the morkite in different regions is a different isotope
zenith sinew
Just beaten DD second stage. Spent 15 minutes finding the last 5 morkite
this is really looking like an error
violet warren
Was able to find 150 morkite exactly, but I think the problem might be rounding errors in the mineral collection in some way
vital sluice
I am super curious if the devs are going to hotfix the morkite
zenith sinew
do they even know about it?
spice tree
I'm on first stage and nearly died to the 200 exploder plants 50 exploders and bulk detonator to add onto it
fiery grotto
do they even know about it?
imagine they do the deep dive stream unaware of that and without dark morkite.
fiery grotto
but they stream EDDs
ah damn, i don't watch streams so i thought they did both of them.
toxic prism
Anyone have done the EDD yet? any feedback?
burnt sandal
not normal ones
they stream both but are on "holidays" at the moment, until next tuesday.
(national holidays in Denmark for a few days)
vital sluice
Anyone have done the EDD yet? any feedback?
I have not. Bring lots of aoe, I guess. Parasites and swarmageddon
spice tree
Holy shit the explosions are really getting on my nerves, destroying geysers needed to reach higher ledges, taking out ledges I'm trying to stand on, killing my mushrooms
I'm upset
vital sluice
I like shooting exploder plants and making a chain reaction. It's like popping bubble wrap.
Taking out the mushrooms does sound annoying though. Also being too close and getting tinnitus is a pain

Yes, but the problem is exploders do too 
17 minutes in and still stuck in the same room help this is hell

Oh right you mentioned the exploders earlier
summer forge
Should i go extra mag flamethrower solo for EDD or try to find people?
i'd like to try it solo
wonder whats better in T5 for swarmageddon
vital sluice
Solo isn't actually harder, or at least not much harder. You should go for it. I feel like driller has good aoe no matter what you bring
You can also make bunkers for egg swarms/ black box/uplink and that's pretty cool
summer forge
i probably go for expanded magazine instead of face melter
vital sluice
I don't have much driller experience but with parasites and swarmageddon you're one shotting a lot of stuff even without face melter

But with morkite drink though, so maybe without it, I would imagine its worse.

if you're frequently challenged on extractions, one technique is to get your elevation as high as possible before calling the pod
going down is usually quicker than up

it can add several minutes to each stage and risks more timed swarms so it's a tradeoff

Yes, choice. It's a strange week, no doubt, but you exploders don't outright remove mineral bits
Just mine the entire thing until no pixel is left

how often do beers rotate? i never used them before
cloud venture
It's rough and unlucky, but this week you have to do it

Daily specials reset alongside the mission cycle. The difference is the Space Rig needs to be reloaded for the beer to change

just got dark morkite gonna do it solo sucks had a nice team

Tip for EDD stage 1: the drop pod spawns in the same cavern as the black box, so holding out at the black box after getting the aquarqs is a good strategy

softlocking it without being prepared for it does suck, but it's a DD and you can just redo it with Dark Morkite and move on

unironically how i mine gold, i dont waste time on it 🤣
solemn hound
Is it genuinely possible to softlock? Could you find it if you looked hard enough?
cloud venture
It is possible to soft lock due to machine event generation, but not minerals
floral shard
donk we emptied every morkite vein entierly and were at 149/150
cloud venture
It's been reported before that some refineries are missing a morkite well due to a machine event spawning in that spot and removing the well

erm...well, this week it seems to be possible to soft lock due to minerals. I'm wondering if there's some floating point shenanigans going on or maybe a hungry loot bug

right? If I do it and beat it first time without the beer, everyone needs to embrace their perfectionism and get every speck
cloud venture
Calling it perfectionism while true, is still something that will annoy some people
slow bramble
yeah tunnelvision is more accurate
cloud venture
As in, first argument against would be "I shouldn't have to mine perfectly" and that is true. But the thing is, it costs FRACTIONS of seconds so why not do it

because ugh AH twitchy FASTER energy drink

why would a mission not generate enough morkite to complete the objective??

Exploders, Gunner's bullet holes etc don't reduce the amount of minerals
calm gate
what if an exploder explodes on 0.1 morkite? does it drop but is invisible? does it go automatically to inventory or to molly?
cloud venture
The game cannot show you less than +0.1 on pickup, that shows as 1 in your inventory, but the game does keep track of decimals
calm gate
im genuinely asking!
cloud venture
If too small of a chunk is broken and nothing drops, that chunk's value just stays in the vein if I recall correctly

The only servers are Valve's server to forward as a relay, but that's on Valve
not on GSG

DRG is p2p

Ah, so if a hacker attacked the servers it would be valve's job to get matchmaking working again

yeah because that would be their servers being attacked

Like we said, DRG doesn't work on a server system
It's fully p2p
Correct me if I'm wrong Pounce

not fully since it relies on valve's servers to relay the information during connection, but once it's established, yeah

But still, this deep dive is nearly impossible until the beer rolls dark morkite, and the devs won't be able to fix it so some people are just going to miss out on their weekly overclocks

we are at 55mins and we did cleaned the walls toio

So are the devs going to reroll the dive or are they able to just increase the amount that spawns somehow?

Rounding errors can result in getting 1 less morkite than you need

So do I.
calm gate
then im not sure what you meant with 4 lures?
restive trout
The Engineer grenade. L.U.R.E.
calm gate
oh
i thought the enemies can just destroy it?
so you just chain it and everything is oki doki?
restive trout
They certainly try. But those lures give me enough breathing room to wipe them all out at once with my breachcutter and reloading my sentries.
calm gate
actually, it should give me enough time too, since i always die at 75-90% then i start losing progress and its over
restive trout
If I feel like I am about to be overrun I throw a lure. This gives me enough breathing room to repell them. And then I try to stay on top of things till I get the feeling again. 4 lures usually are enough for one entire download.
So I dont chain them directly. Rather I use them when I need a buffer.
calm gate
so far, my issue has simply been that i dont have the dps for all of the enemies, like there are AT LEAST 5 guardians and 5 slashers on my screen at any time once its passed the 75% mark
they spawn quicker than i can kill them lol
restive trout
What class do you play as?
calm gate
scout
jade palm
Well there's your issue
restive trout
Okay yea. Scout has probably the hardest time to stand his ground.
The engi is backed up with the breach cutter and sentries. There is a difference in pure DPS.
calm gate
do you think the breach cutter is really good for it?
restive trout
If you cant zip zoop away then scout is the weakest of the bunch.
calm gate
im using mods, so i can change equipment, i actually never used that option before
restive trout
I prefer the Breach Cutter on my Engineer over the Grenade launcher.
Breach Cutter deals a lot of damage in a rather big area (especially nice when they are hudle around a lure), shreds armor. Overall a good time.
calm gate
can you tell me your breathcutter modifications?
jade palm
Scout's DPS is the worst in the game
Engie is the best for pure DPS, which is the most effective when you gotta stay inside a 5m radius circle
restive trout
can you tell me your breathcutter modifications?
Sure. Gimme a sec.

we are missing less than 1 morkite. can't find the last small patch in the last room tough

we are experiencing this but we can't complete the mission since we can't find that extra 1 and we have been looking for 45 minutes now

Good luck!

It's on the left from the entrance point
Should be some odd generation near it, you'll find a small hand sized patch of Morkite
I posted an image in #drg-gallery of it
you also gotta get every single pixel
Can't leave a singular 0.1 morkite behind
according to some of the smarter ones in here, there can be a rounding error that occurs, making it impossible to do it

the omoron room?
jade palm
Yea
ionic kraken
we allready have that one
jade palm
Checked Room 2, in a small air bubble above the geyser?
ionic kraken
yup
jade palm
Okay
Then you're on your own, lol
ionic kraken
i fear we have the rounding error
jade palm
Make sure you get every pixel, and dont mine with full pockets
restive trout
Or just get dark morkite.
jade palm
Cuz if you got 39 in your pocket, then you mine 1.5 Morkite,
You'll only get 1 morkite, and the 0.5 dissapears (maybe this is how it works? Do not quote me, i am smooth brained. Just trying to make sense of it=
hexed coral
Ive just managed to do DD solo with Engi with no problem getting morkite on 2nd stage (ps4) guessing ive got lucky?
glossy walrus
console doesn't have the issue
it sounds like just pc
on my ps4 run we had 150 morkite before we even got to the heartstone
jade palm
Didnt some PS come in here earlier though?
The 2nd stage DD should give you barely 150 morkite
glossy walrus
there was a ps person who said that they had dark morkite and had a room ready, they didn't say they had morkite issues
restive trout
Can confirm. Dark Morkite solves the issue.
hexed coral
console doesn't have the issue
Ahhh I did ask earlier if it was just PC or not I was told ot was effecting everyone....good luck PC peeps 😩
gusty meteor
..
There any chance the morkite got blasted under the ommoran? Last week had a decent chunk of the stuff in the EDD on top of the salvage pod
jade palm
Theory rn is that the generation of the ommoran Hearthstone itself deleted some veins of Morkite

so there could be morkite under the heartstone?
restive trout
I thought that too. But the map doesnt show any pockets of air underneath it.
Might be worth a shot to dig underneath.
hazy iris
i dug out the hearthstone nothing underneath
gusty meteor
I'd say drill under then call in ammo pod. Since the area would be deployable terrain for the pod.. should drill right through and knock any morkite hiding in the crystal bed itself
ionic kraken
so nothing got knocked out :/
patent carbon
Yeah I had to go through every single room and pick up every last shimmering microgram of morkite.
acoustic junco
is this in dd or edd?
glossy walrus
dd, but it's not an issue on ps
green wigeon
Lost like 5 min into stage 3 of the EDD. Severe lack of nitra on 1st stage. 3rd stage is very tough
restive trout
Stage 2 got a good amount of Nitra. But yes. Getting into the main cave on Stage 3 is really difficult.

Hey guys, fuck morkite, am i rite
timber wraith

where is the morkite on stage 2
I heard there's a tiny bit behind the heartstone

Hey, just had a quick question about the community in this game. Just got promoted on my driller, looking to do deep dives. Was just wondering how the toxicity was in them? I am a slow learner due to disabilities I have and don't think I can deal with a lot of toxic people. A little is ok and I can manage that, but if 7 out of 10 games are just sweaty kids playing MLG gamer, then I will probably avoid it all together and solo them.
plush forge
Very little toxicity

Toxicity is still around but fairly low usually
knotty sapphire
Ok good, like I sadi. I have soloed up until deep dives. Never ran with other people, but I hear doing deep dives alone can take hours
plush forge
the game runs on a "shared goal" dynamic. therefore there are incentives to finishing the mission with everyone intact, in the pod.

nah, at most it'll take your a bit more than one hour
but multiple hours ? probably not
i don't recommend doing the normal deep dives this week yet though, as it's bugged
glossy walrus
multiple hours only comes from failing and retrying it a lot, but a successful run is generally at worst only 1.5h or so
knotty sapphire
nah, at most it'll take your a bit more than one hour
Ok thanks for the info. I may try to solo one before joining other people. This game is amazing and good for my autism
plush forge
so, there ARE toxic people, who think it's funny to grief. all games have them. but they are the rarity, not the norm. also, we have LFG channels here and voice chat, so you can likely find someone to have a go with who is fairly knowledgeable and willing to show you the ropes.
knotty sapphire
I can deal with the occasional . You cant be free of them in any game. I understand that.
Thanks for all the help everyone ❤️

deep dives dont take hours if you're efficient. they're definitely a lot longer but if you're efficient its ok. i did my first one solo in 46 minutes
violet warren
This is a special case because the map got bugged and the devs can't fix it

miniswarms spawn when you get near a minimule and when you approached the trapped leg, so there's up to 6 of those before you can get to the end

Theres your issue guy.

I had to hold the position at the entrance of the cavern for like 5 minutes at least before I could dare to enter.
Its a real flood.

Stubbs has big problems solo without emd or emrb
glossy walrus
and yeah it has a nice welcoming party too
at least most are waiting in the cave and and not at the drop pod
rich beacon
i have executioner on smart rifle but i feel like it has so little ammo
scenic finch
And first promo soloing edd is pretty ambitious.
restive trout
Allthough I use the Lok1 instead of the SMG.

the stubby is fine even without EM refire or EM discharge
rich beacon

i play every class so i promoted every character around the same time so i wouldnt be locked to one class on deep dives
also i did the elite last week first try pretty ok
scenic finch

Well, thats great!
restive trout
Haha. Congratz!
calm gate

scenic finch

Eh, kinda struggles depending on the secondary.
restive trout
Really gives you the needed legroom.
calm gate
yes omg!
restive trout
The Breachcutter? Whats wrong with it?
calm gate
and they take sooooooo long to run out or die
