i can just literally chain them

burnt sandal
#

As long as you build your set of weapons to cover every threats accordingly, you're fine

rich beacon
#

wait i do have em discharge, is it really that good

scenic finch
calm gate
#

nothing wrong with it, its just not a weapon i liked using,

scenic finch
#

Personal favorite of mine.

restive trout
#

Fair enough.

scenic finch
#

What secondary are you normally using doug?

rich beacon
#

breach cutter

scenic finch
#

Ah.

burnt sandal
scenic finch
#

WoM stubby normally wants some big chunky swarm clear to use it to it’s full potential.

glossy walrus
#

emd is crazy good yeah, just have to get used to using it

low flax
#

Is it just me or stage 3 EDD was a bit hairy

#

1st time I was challenged on EDD for a long time

restive trout
#

It really is.

low flax
#

damn

restive trout
#

The entrance to the big cavern, right?

#

Thats the spot of struggle?

scenic finch
#

Message came up

calm gate
#

dude those little ants were the hardest thing ever

scenic finch
#

Only like 20 bugs

calm gate
#

they literally killed me twice by themselves

restive trout
#

The swarmers or the parasites?

low flax
#

We got swarms with rapid intervals

calm gate
#

i dont know the names, the ones that crawl on the ground and there are like 50 of them

scenic finch
#

The swarmers can be hazardous.

calm gate
#

the flying ones were also VERY annoying, but thankfully with the grappling hook i just rushed it down at the start

restive trout
#

Sounds like swarmers. They do be swarming.

rich beacon
#

mactera plague is my worst enemy i swear

restive trout
#

Hence I like the chemical rounds on the Lok1. The initial explosion usually wipes out bigger groups of them.

calm gate
glossy walrus
#

the hard part is getting 3 locks on one swarmer

#

actually the real hard part is getting ecr in the first place

rich beacon
#

if i were to play driller for the edd, should i use flamethrower or sludge pump?

restive trout
#

As soon as I see a 3 I let loose.

timber wraith
#

is there any shit generation in the edd like stage 2 in the dd

restive trout
#

Define "shit generation".

timber wraith
#

the morkite

restive trout
#

No.

timber wraith
#

ok thanks

calm gate
#

no awful generation, but the twin dreadnaught was pretty tough cause its in an area of constant fire torrents

restive trout
#

You fought them at the bottom? I went back to the entrance cave.

calm gate
#

ah, well, you see, im dum

#

:)))

#

i kept grappling hooking from one side to another

#

cant play this game without the hook

restive trout
#

Guess you got hooked?

calm gate
#

omg im so mad

#

i was JUST about to make that pun

restive trout
upper geyser
#

Actually had one of my favorite deep dives this week

#

Paired up with a solid af scout and we tore up EDD

#

I effed up in stage 3 and he clutched it back

vale cradle
#

So have they fixed the dive?

analog blaze
grizzled blade
#

anyone have any issues with the second stage of the regular deep dive?

burnt sandal
grizzled blade
#

damn

#

149/150

digital chasm
#

leave no pixel of morkite behind

rich beacon
#

dude this last stage of edd is driving me nuts

#

i feel like i get through a hoard only to get less than 30 seconds of down time for another hoard

shy matrix
cursive escarp
#

Same 149/150

shy matrix
#

there is 1 speck of morkite at the back of the end room

grizzled blade
shy matrix
#

did yall find it?

wet osprey
#

I hate that. Spent a hour on second stage. 139/150.

grizzled blade
shy matrix
#

it's like 0.6 morkite but it's there

#

you can get it all in 1 hit

cursive escarp
#

First stage also glitched and made us fail even if we escaped successfully

#

Jankiest deep dive ever

wraith shard
#

Sand please

#

Where is it

#

I've been here an hour

#

That tiny bit at the end room

fresh bloom
wraith shard
#

Like, from the front?

#

Of the dozer, that is

fresh bloom
#

Yeah

burnt sandal
#

there should be 2-3 crevices on the wall, it's on the side of one of them

shy matrix
#

holy hell I barely made it out with doretta's head

wraith shard
#

Ok so

#

Looking forwards in the same direction as doretta

#

It's on my left

#

nine o clock?

shy matrix
#

for me the little bit at the end was directly across the room from the drilldozer hole

#

I just went straight ahead

wraith shard
#

I gave up

keen marten
#

Can I keep doing deep dives for overclocks?

hoary cove
#

no

#

3 from each deep dive per week

wary finch
#

Really cool how I can find 1 morkite when I have 149 morkite in the mule and the game just decides not to count it

#

Cool deep dive

short egret
#

to be clear; 1 blank, 1 random weapon, 1 cosmetic, PER deep dive, per week.

#

and by per deep dive.. I mean 1 DD, 1 EDD.

summer wigeon
#

and the weekly core hunt

shy matrix
#

screw this dive

#

i finished it

hollow citrus
#

do deep dive drop pods spawn in the same location for everyone?

burnt sandal
#

at least if you mean when entering the level

#

if you mean the one for leaving though, no, it's based on the position of your team

hollow citrus
#

ah ok, was watching a vid and noticed their exit one was in a slightly different spot from mine. same room though.

shy matrix
#

all deep dives have the same preset map

#

until they change every week

#

elite and regular have different maps tho

jolly hazel
#

edd is fun but 2nd stage egg cave is nasty

#

lots of leeches this week

#

look up

summer wigeon
#

or bring an sfx replacer

keen marten
#

For elite deep dives and I required to have a good build with overclocks cause I haven’t been the luckiest

steep vault
#

Guys im at the end of my deep dive and my hivegaurd isnt hiveguarding (wont summon minions) do I just wait it out more? Been waiting a minutr or two and its just walking around, not even attacking

jovial sail
#

Just walk up and pickaxe it constantly

#

It’ll resolve within a few minutes

waxen terrace
#

ive done edds with vanilla no oc weapons

rich beacon
#

any tips for 3rd part of edd? ive died on it twice, i feel like hoards are just spawning back to back and i dont even have time to do any of the objective

jolly hazel
#

if you get near a mini mule

#

it spawns a mini swarm

burnt sandal
jolly hazel
#

in about 10-20 seconds

#

so communicate instead of dropping 3 mini swarms on yourself

#

also the cave is kinda shit

knotty sapphire
#

Minigun vs Thunderhead? Which is better if im soloing?

jolly hazel
#

thunderhead wave clear

knotty sapphire
#

thanks

jolly hazel
#

take single target secondary

knotty sapphire
#

ok

steep vault
jolly hazel
#

its a bug

burnt sandal
steep vault
#

Was super woried an hour went down the drain

halcyon nacelle
#

Got through the DD with no morkite issues.

jolly hazel
#

this week the dreadnought arblest bugged out for us and spammed projectiles for like 10 seconds straight

halcyon nacelle
#

I heard some bad stuff about it.

#

But it twas all good for our run.

rich beacon
#

wait so do i wanna get near the mule and legs solo so the waves dont overlap

jolly hazel
#

uh

#

one at a time

#

basically

#

you will not have time to pull all 3 legs and repair before they are on you

#

usually

steep vault
#

What i did for the mini mules was start repairing and grapple away as necesarry becuase scout gaming

burnt sandal
jolly hazel
#

lol

#

its playstation only?

burnt sandal
#

Steam for sure and maybe playstation but not sure for that one

glossy walrus
#

nothing on ps

halcyon nacelle
steep vault
#

Gotta say though, this feep dive was blessed with nitra, held out on valling a resupply on stage 1 and had 400+ nitra by stage 3

quasi schooner
#

has the soft lock been fixed?

steep vault
#

Deep*

burnt sandal
jolly hazel
#

deep dive level gen is very similar but for some reason some level gen elements are different between platforms

burnt sandal
quasi schooner
#

thanks

burnt sandal
halcyon nacelle
burnt sandal
#

it's made so older generation won't struggle performance-wise

jolly hazel
#

limited as in less complex?

#

ah

burnt sandal
#

less big rather than less complex

halcyon nacelle
#

Well thank gods cause I'm on the older generation.

#

Thanks Store's, for not selling or stocking the new Xbox.

Love ya.

raven kelp
#

Love checking the cave top to bottom for 6 morkite for an hour only to discover other people are having the issue

#

pls sir, just a crumb of morkite

flat dirge
#

Is it with or without the dark morkite beer? Sconk

raven kelp
#

i did without, guess ill have to do it again with

torpid galleon
#

im doing it without

#

and im at 149 too

#

the other guy here said he had the same problem twice too

torpid galleon
raven kelp
#

Can we be compensated for our efforts? I really wanted a weapon overclock :/

bold maple
#

Whats a solid gunner build for EDD this week

torpid galleon
#

it looks like it can be done, but you need to be really clean with the veins and get lucky possiblly

bold maple
#

Just lost a really rough EDD on stage 3, sadly had to pull a lot of weight for the team the whole time and went down after uplink stage as last alive with nobody on IW

raven kelp
#

Yeah but i dont feel luck should be a factor

bold maple
#

I had about 1400 kills with 6 downs, and everyone else on 18+ downs barely cracking 600 :/

#

Tbf, not the easiest map for the greener beards playing with us

torpid galleon
flat dirge
#

It's def just cave gen shenanigans

#

Machine events and Omaron are the main causes of the jank

#

as they just tear out huge chunks of terrain with little regard for anything around them drillchamp

#

had a floating oil well in the middle of a huge open cave because a machine event spawned under it, so no surprise that this week's Dive got slightly soft locked by omaron.

tardy flower
#

there isn't enough morkite on the second stage of the normal deep dive

#

anyone else have this issue?

raven kelp
#

yeah i did too, had to abort mission after an hour of searching

torpid galleon
#

yes scroll up we've been talking about it for a while buddy

tardy flower
#

fun glitch

#

dont devs test each deep dive?

#

we were also at 149

#

so fucking infuriating lol, everyone gave up

#

can you carry some morkite in your inventory from the previous mission?

torpid galleon
#

nope

tardy flower
#

so we have to wait for the beer?

dusty cipher
#

Seems so.

crimson tinsel
#

We managed to find the full 150 but we were at 149 until after the heartstone

#

had to scrounge up in that vertical midcave

tardy flower
#

someone ping me when morkite beer comes online if you see it

cursive lodge
#

it wasn't there in our dive; had to abort

hollow citrus
#

thought deep dives were the same for everyone, how is it that people are missing 1 or 3 or 4 morkite pieces after mining everything? are the ore veins slightly different sizes? (assuming no dark morkite buff)

cursive lodge
#

likely

frank sundial
#

we are at 147 morkite on the dd

#

is there some bug

flat dirge
frank sundial
#

we have bees searching for 20 mins

proper mauve
#

idiotic ED honestly. 149 morkite, could not find more after an hour of searching

flat dirge
#

Cave gen did an oopsie

#

you maybe could do it with dark morkite beer, haven't tried it myself

frank sundial
#

oh thats smart

plain glade
#

149 morkite for like 20 minutes

#

but we prevailed

frank sundial
#

we are stuck at 147 : (

#

dont think we are gonna make it

dusty cipher
#

Just started one with Dark Morkite, hope it works.

tardy flower
#

dark morkite live

#

it works

#

just did it

frank sundial
#

aborted at 149 morkite

tardy flower
#

the beer is live, try again

frank sundial
#

im so drained

#

idk if i have it in me

fervent meteor
#

We got to 149 and just cleaned every tiny bit until it rounded us up to 1 more

tardy flower
#

yeah we did the same last time but it wasn't enough

safe roost
#

149.9 morkite, but never 150

sick ferry
#

half hour trying to find it

#

sadly, cant finish the normal DD now

tardy flower
#

i did it with the morkite beer

sick ferry
#

too lazy to try again after this

#

but if it works with beer, better than nothing

severe owl
#

is regular DD 2 refill or 1 refill

#

for doretta

safe roost
severe owl
#

ight

safe roost
#

but the 150 morikite is impossible

severe owl
#

i have dark morkite rn

safe roost
#

oh

#

good

marble veldt
#

Escort Missions are always 1 stop in Deep Dives

dull cobalt
#

oh thank god others are talking about this

#

theres some in a corner of the doretta room. unsure if its the same for others, i assume it is. but theres some in the left corner of the room. i can provide a screenshot if necessary

marble veldt
#

It's known

#

Best fix for now is to take a swig of Dark Morkite before the Dive

dull cobalt
#

alright

marble veldt
#

Devs are probably gonna reroll the Dive when they got some time

grizzled blade
#

because I mined it and still got stuck earlier

#

I aborted earlier than some others and just did it later in the day, when dark morkite was available

crystal vault
#

Everyone's talking about these tiny bits in the omaran room and I've found nothing.

#

Been in this missions for like an hour now. And returned "1" morkite like 4 times now, but still stuck at 149

sly quest
sly quest
weary gazelle
#

one on right side of ommeran NOT in the ravine bit

dull cobalt
crystal vault
#

I'm thinking we got fucked by some rounding issues or some stray gunner bullets destroying the tiny non-bein

weary gazelle
#

also some about halfway through in a small room in hole in the ceiling

crystal vault
#

vein

#

Found the hole in the roof and not a scrap was left anywhere.

sly quest
#

imagine if it wasnt stage 1 but stage 3...

dull cobalt
#

its stage 2 right

sly quest
#

oh it is, my bad

#

could still be worse i guess

crystal vault
#

Yeah, stage 2. Aborted after 1:39.

#

couldn't see the ground anymore because of all the flares everywhere

sly quest
#

edd is super hard too, though i might just be bad at the game

#

died 37 times and wiped in last stage

#

even after 3 iron wills

dull cobalt
#

wheres the EDD this week?

sly quest
#

lava

dull cobalt
#

oph

#

that would be why

sly quest
#

i quickly found out that cryo didnt make lava ground cold

dull cobalt
#

magma core is an experience, especially on elite deep dive

sly quest
#

i shouldve taken my sticky flames ammo efficient build

dull cobalt
#

pretty sure enemies in the magma core are resilient to fire but i could be wrong on that

#

you taking cryo wasnt that bad of an idea

sly quest
#

imagine if they added a magma praetorian though

dull cobalt
#

spoopy

#

but also sounds like fun

sly quest
#

sticky flames (with slowdown) means i can lay down a line that swarmers die if they cross

dull cobalt
#

oh right swarmers

sly quest
#

much easier to crowd control for me

#

not having spoolup time is pretty helpful too

dull cobalt
#

sticky flames seems really good i should try to make a sticky flames build

sly quest
dull cobalt
#

no worries

sly quest
marble veldt
#

Interesting choice of OC for a Sticky Flames build

dull cobalt
#

is targets exploding on the flamethrower even good

#

i assume yes but ive seen nobody run it

marble veldt
#

It would be better if it didn't have terrible falloff

sly quest
marble veldt
#

At least it's useful against clumped up groups of swarmers or naedocytes

dull cobalt
#

aaah

#

i noticed it said it works on swarmers and that has my attention

#

then again heat radiance kinda does too

sly quest
#

i mean 8 seconds of sticky duration, 75rd tanks and 375 total ammo makes for a pretty useful build

sly quest
#

so stuff that sneaks up on your back can also burn

dull cobalt
#

yea heat radiance is just really good

vague sun
#

managed to get all 150 morkite on stage 2 DD

#

but barely

sly quest
narrow creek
#

dpeek so uh my team was stuck on 149 morkite

#

Didn't know something was wrong until I checked this channel

#

rip

sly quest
#

because i rely on DoT a lot

dull cobalt
sly quest
#

cause it happened to me once too

#

then checked here and retried with DM beer

narrow creek
#

Feels like the best course of action is to wait for a DD LFG where the host has Dark Morkite

#

Time for a break I guess

dull cobalt
#

it is possible to get through it without dark morkite

#

but its VERY slim

#

almost a chance, but i know thats not the case

shrewd crypt
#

yea by the looks of it, most everyone is getting 149 without dark morkite

dull cobalt
#

just mine every single piece of morkite you can, even if its 0.1 pieces or a small corner. grab all you can

shrewd crypt
#

sometimes if your bag is full it will round down and make that .1 disappear

dull cobalt
#

oh yea

#

that too

sly quest
#

or 40 instead of 45 depending on perks/upgrades

#

would be nice if the armor upgrade for storage was +10, used a mod for it once and it was so much more convenient

loud basin
#

yea the 2nd phase for DD is fucked

#

i spent 2-3 hrs looking for morkite

vapid basin
#

@loud basin OMFG same here

#

I'm stuck over 1.5 hrs with 145/150 morkite

loud basin
#

give up

#

thats my advic

vapid basin
#

Been walking back and forth

#

I knew it was f*cked when the last room spawned with the smallest chunk of morkite I've ever seen, like the size of a Bismor chunk

loud basin
#

yep seen that

vapid basin
#

I've just casually scrolled up chat and found 5 others with the same issue, looks like we're not alone. Will have to wait for Dark Morkite looks like

#

Or whenever they fix it

lusty fiber
#

Tbh I low-key hope that they'll regenerate this deep dive so I can get the rewards again 👀

dawn belfry
#

wheres the last few morkite on DD 2?

rocky bane
#

bugs ate him

dawn belfry
#

damn

#

well gotta roll dark mork

rocky bane
#

good luck)

spring crescent
#

hey we just did this DD, there is exactly 150 morkite

#

you have to get every pixel basically and deposit in molly as soon as you get full

narrow creek
#

Lads I have the beer

#

I just put up an LFG

shut oracle
#

ill wait for beer too good to know

shut oracle

#

so i've noticed you can pick up the batteries that you eject from the caretaker force field

#

can you do anything with them or

iron sun
#

throw them as bombs

burnt sandal
#

I usually drop them on tentacle placements so two of them are instantly OS in the first phase

untold apex
#

is there enough morkite for deep dive normal phase 2 this week n

stuck hawk
#

Some say so, just gave up on 149.... make sure you have the morkite buff beer if you go again

untold apex
#

same 149 what the heck

stuck hawk
#

Yeah.... GL 😢
Looked for like 30 minutes

#

I'd say just quit and make sure to have buff beer....

vague sun
#

we got bodied on stage 3 EDD when our gunner disconnected for no reason

violet warren
#

Basically if any morkite drops on the ground you get a rounding error and you don't end up with enough

sage cave
violet warren
#

You have to get every single speck and not fill your inventory or C4/EPC/Bosco mine any of it

#

GSG can't fix it because the entire team is on vacation and they can't afford to pay a dev overtime to come off vacation and reset the map generation

#

So basically just wait for dark morkite to be in the beer rotation and pray that it actually shows up

cyan sparrow
#

uh guys

#

the 2nd stage of the DD

#

if you cant find enough morkite... do we just give up?

#

There quite literally isnt enough

burnt sandal
cyan sparrow
#

well fuck

#

i just spent an hour doing nothing

charred fox
#

we surrendered on the 2nd stage, and as we came back, we got dark morkite, so there we went again xD

cloud venture
#

If you don't want to risk the rounding god, Dark Morkite and Driller being tasked with drilling all Morkite as his sole job are alternatives

reef bison
#

2nd stage of DD wasnt really a problem. The morkite wasnt abundant but we did have enough, without dark morkite. On PS if that makes any difference

Ahh I remember
The Morkite Drought of 2022

i did the edd with some friends, and as a scout i zipped all across the salvage room and triggered every spitballer + mule swarm

#

what mods do you guys take for special powder?

#

and auto-reload

what about tier 4 though?

doesn't matter

#

no i mean

#

I did this week's deep dive, it was magma core

crystal ingot
#

That was last weeks DD

#

hmm

#

they changed around 24 hours ago ^^

#

well yes

#

i did one less than 24 hours ago

#

it was magma core

lets get those easter eggs bois rocknstone

#

i think there was a glitch in the matrix

torpid galleon
#

have the devs at least issued a statement going oh yea we fucked up, gonna fix it now

leaden cypress
#

wat

cloud venture
#

They don't have to, DD is possible. It is random every week, sometimes spectacular generations as this happen. Get Dark Morkite

leaden cypress
#

i didn't have any issue with DD strangely dstare

cloud venture
#

Me neither. Did it first try, but did say "wow" when i realized there is just enough Morkite this time

leaden cypress
#

There was a deep dive like that before

#

escort + morkite

#

azure weald

#

Needless to say it was nearly impossible to see them

cloud venture
#

When I exit a cave, the walls are full of my saliva

#

Because I lick the walls so clean dstare

fossil lagoon
#

we got just enough

leaden cypress
#

Yet no one complained dstare

fossil lagoon
#

150 morkite without dark morkite

cloud venture
#

Totally possible

fossil lagoon
#

nice

cloud venture
#

Sucks for people that mine like this

#

i dont play DRG that long but that hurts to look at.

fossil lagoon
#

i don't get people who don't mine all of it

#

even if they're full

#

I noticed that there is a geyser/vent in the middle of the escort mission that is able to shoot you up a level where there is more morkite if that isnt known 😅

supple quarry
#

Hey guys i think stage 2 is glitched. (Sarcasm)

cloud venture
cloud venture
wispy cloak
#

not like countless people spend more than an hour digging through all caves to be stuck on 149

#

ur lucky thats it

cloud venture
#

I finished the DD blind first try by doing what I always do. After that I played the dive three more times, so four total, doing the same thing and still not being short. There's enough in the cave without needing the beer

#

Does it suck that there's just enough? Yes, for some

#

But the game has a boost beer. This dive is not broken

wispy cloak
#

its literally not enough for some ?

cloud venture
#

The only rounding error tht can happen is if you mine Morkite with a full inventory of Morkite, but why would you do that

wispy cloak
cloud venture
#
- 67 Gold
- 84 Nitra
- 72 Morkite

Small Cave 1:
- 29 Gold
- 40 Nitra
- 14 Morkite

Refuel Cave:
- 52 Gold
- 106 Nitra
- 45 Morkite

Small Cave 2:
- 26 Gold
- 34 Nitra
- 18 Morkite

Ommoran Cave:
- 26 Gold
- 22 Nitra
- 1 Morkite

Totals: 200 Gold | 286 Nitra | 150 Morkite```
wispy cloak
#

damn, must be a lot of liars that get stuck on 149

wraith shard
#

Id say its definitely broken if there are rounding errors if you mine while full. Even if it wasn't broken in that way, it's bad design and definitely unintended

cloud venture
#

I've heard the only other instance of this happening in a dive was two years ago

frozen gyro
#

clearly game is fine and everyone is lying

cloud venture
#

And the game is four years old

reef bison
#

Its affecting some and not others

#

It just is what it is I guess

#

Dont mine to full and just make sure you mine everything

cloud venture
#

Or have Driller collapse the Morkite veins for full payout each

wraith shard
#

Maybe caves spawn with a random integer amount of morkite with range based on the quota and it just happened to roll the minimum possible amount

cloud venture
#

Also Dark Morkite daily special

wraith shard
#

Which would be bad design

cloud venture
#

In this mission one Morkite vein for example is cut off by the open space that's forced around the Ommoran

#

I've seen players report OSR missions with only two wells because a machine event removed a morkite well by spawning

wraith shard
#

You mean the vein of 0. 4 morkite xd

cloud venture
#

Surely unintended and broken, but it happens once a blue moon

reef bison
#

Maybe just git gud

wispy cloak
#

the point is it is NOT player error but a dev error

calm gate
#

the solution to this problem is really easy, just make it so there is always 1-2 extra veins that spawns

wraith shard
#

Should have failsafes if random generation leads to such situations

cloud venture
#

During the early update of Rival Incursion, I had Hacksy's pod drop ON the data vault and I couldn't interact with it to grab tethers

cloud venture
wispy cloak
#

but this aint the early dais anymore

cloud venture
#

I was solo Gunner, tough luck

wispy cloak
#

there were baby mollys stuck under omerald in the past too

#

that was at least possible

calm gate
cloud venture
#

Minimules can still get stuck in place if you break terrain underneath them before repairing

cloud venture
#

The bonus generation setpieces can surely use an improvement

#

Instead of just cutting perfectly into the ground and spawning

calm gate
#

yes, i agree. its the other people saying its player error. personally i think its a design/coding error, players shouldnt be expected to know about 0.0001 morkite remaining in a vein or having to play around that issue

cloud venture
#

I've had horrendous looking Ommoran spawns sometimes

#

Where the cave was small and it looked stupid

#

Tbh, I'd just make this a feature and call it Scarce Minerals mutator. Where the cave generates just enough of something, idk

#

Though having a mutator that only affects one mission type is weird to have

wraith shard
#

No it's dumb and stupid

#

Especially if there is any chance of rounding errors (eg mining while full) , or different ways of mining giving lower resources

cloud venture
#

Obviously I'd look into that

rugged nest
#

shouldn't the devs playtest the deep dive?

cloud venture
#

Not really? They are on vacation so that's why there were no dev streams

rugged nest
#

that explains it then

burnt sandal
#

outside of the streams they do, which they happened to not do this week because of national holidays exceptionally lol

cloud venture
#

Would have liked to see their reaction to this week's

burnt sandal
#

And when I say the "devs"... it's usually more like Jacob, who's the CM and ONE dev most of the time 😄

#

It's pretty rare to have a full team from the devs themselves

wispy cloak
#

It shouldnt be too hard to have some code doublecheck the aviable morkite and if that is 150 or less it should just do a new roll...

cloud venture
#

CM?

burnt sandal
cloud venture
#

I see

#

It must be all the fault of the Ommoran spawning zone

#

In Salvage Operations there's usually four legs per MiniMule. Three for repair and one spare. So 0/2 Minimules have two spares and 0/3 Minimules have three spares. I've had missions before where I only had one spare in two Minimule missions due to a machine event removing the other

#

hey, anyone else has an issue finding enough Morkite on DD Stage 2? I'm like 4 short and can't find a single mineral anymore

burnt sandal
#

it's been talked about only that in this channel for the past 24h

cloud venture
#

This week there's just enough Morkite. Don't leave any pixel behind. If you're playing solo you could also abort and wait a Dark Morkite beer

wispy cloak
#

just enough in some cases

strong sparrow
wispy cloak
#

just come back with dark morkite

cloud venture
wispy cloak
#

most people never find the last

strong sparrow
#

they always put so much more in there, especially in the last are to make sure you get the numbers

cloud venture
strong sparrow
#

i even find the little hidden one above Dotty's path i couldn find but that made me 4 short

cloud venture
#

In the Ommoran cave there's only a literal one click "vein" worth 0.4 Morkite

wispy cloak
#

we dug through the entire cave, checked behind oil shells, mushrooms , goo cannot get past 149. Dark morkite is da wae

frozen gyro
#

here's the easiest way to fix it

#

make the morkite spawn happen after the stone spawn

cloud venture
#

Don't disrespect the Ommoran like that

#

Don't call it "stone"

frozen gyro
#

rock

#

(and stone)

burnt sandal
#

You know, it's easy to throw solutions out there, especially when you have no idea how it works but...

cloud venture
#

Call it the "Ommoran Heartstone™"

burnt sandal
#

yeah that's not how it works dderp

frozen gyro
#

are you a programmer/dev

burnt sandal
#

no

strong sparrow
cloud venture
#

Could just force the veins to not be removed and if a forced open air section is in the way, have the vein be cut off and left into chunks dderp

wispy cloak
cloud venture
#

Now imagine an Escort Duty with not enough Oil Shale lmao dderp

wispy cloak
#

well luckily that stuff spawns in every room and everywhere where you dont need it

cloud venture
#

Just go and pickaxe the Ommoran yourself lol

strong sparrow
#

Or a Salvage Operation with not enough detonator

stage 3 was quite spicy

worldly kraken

are there morkite problems in the deep dive?

golden thorn
worldly kraken
#

is there hidden morkite?

golden thorn
#

Nope, my team spent an hour scouring the cave for exactly 1 morkite and found nothing
I heard there was a secret vein in the heartstone room so we dug up half the place and found nothing

dusty ocean
#

It's hiding behind the mucus.

golden thorn
#

What mucus? Where, half the cave is covered

#

We got super frustrated bc we were so close and had to quit to go to sleep

latent solar
#

same here man, same here...

golden thorn
#

Oh well, at least it's just a simple error that slipped under the radar

neon smelt
#

I had no problem with the morkite

#

There is in fact a vein in the heartstone room

golden thorn
neon smelt
#

F

#

the Morkite was indeed kinda scarce and you just had to find every vein to complete it

golden thorn
#

Yes, we found every vein, we just mined it improperly I guess so that the .00001 of morkite escaped the three of us

neon smelt
#

no, you didn't

#

in all of the veins there was a little more than enough

#

we had 149/150 and then we found another vein

golden thorn
#

Where?

neon smelt
#

heartstone room

#

it more or less in the back, opposite from where you enter. Or in that rough area, don't remember exactly

golden thorn
#

Yeah we checked the reddit thread, saw that, and scoured the cave. For some reason we found nothing

neon smelt
#

🤷

#

odd

tulip idol
#

At stage 3 EDD my mates died while we were entering the main cave:
scout died when he grappled to land cryo nade at breeder almost at melee range but following landing surprisingly turned out to be lethal.
driller who was almost the same rank as me - got yoinked far away (was always going solo straight to objective separately from the team without saying anything), I saw him released but he still died a few seconds after cause of that.
engineer stayed behind me with Lok and Hyperprop, helped me with bunch of macteras but then swarmageddon finally found weakness in his build and he was really mad at those small biters.
So, be careful.

neon smelt
#

when I did the EDD last night the 3rd stage took longer than the other stages combined

#

because we were dying so much and there was so many enemies everywhere

#

and there were many moments where the last person was running around, waiting for an opportunity to revive

golden thorn
#

Almost lost the edd to the millions of swarms, iron will clutched

tulip idol
#

Nah, bugs won't see me dead when I'm focused

#

I ressed scout and ended that swarm

neon smelt
#

I was so glad i brought Neurotox Payload

tulip idol
#

But I had to dodge ground and air at the same time in the darkness so I admit it was not casual

#

I made a circle and timed lava geyser right so enemies behind me got burned

#

Got like 1k kills for my team in the end, although my weapon was not about DpS

tidal spruce
#

so im told there's only 149 morkite in the second stage of the DD

topaz prairie
#

Theres more

rich beacon
#

and there is a small chunk at the heartstone for 1 morkite that a lot of people were missing

radiant belfry
#

So do they ever fix the deep dive or will we just have to deal with this the rest of the week?

tulip idol
#

Deal with it

dude stage 2 DD is a nightmare and a 1/2

#

the morkite is just stupid, me and a group are on it rn, and we did the heartstone, and we emptied all the morkite veins in the cave, but we can't move on cause we are literally like.3 or.2 Morkite short, and stuck at like 149.8 something

Ayyy finally have dark morkite ,

That’s a theory. The game doesn’t round in general

A lot

raven kelp
#

Yeah it does round

lone olive
#

Well, thanks for the help.

old widget
#

Sorry, let me be clear. The underlying representation of mineral amounts is not an integer, so fractional mineral amounts you pick up aren’t rounded up or down when you put them in the dwarf’s pocket.

#

The visual representation obviously has some kind of floor/ceiling/round

west merlin
#

I've just learned that someone who gets kicked from an EDD can't rejoin later, unlike losing connection.
Which makes sense but one friend had to AFK briefly and I kicked him thinking he could rejoin :(

#

(this was all during stage 2)

#

We had some tragic miscommunication where he said he was going to "eat lunch with his family" and it turned out that somehow only took him 10 minutes

#

So we could've just waited on the mission screen and all gone to use the bathroom or something :(

#

Does anyone know if someone who leaves a DD with the disconnect button rather than losing internet connection can rejoin?

Can't they do a check to make sure there's like at least 50% more morkite than is needed for the minimum in a mission?

#

Like as it's being generated

#

And if there's not, spawn another few patches until there is?

It’s a bug stop bitching

The Ommoran deleted some of it

Guys, hello. Anybody knows direction where the Omoron Heartstone in in common deep dive?

I can confirm that there is only 150 morkite on stage 2 of the Deep Dive, which is definitely not intentional.

Always?

148/150 morkite. I did get the 0.4 morkite that's near the hearthstone. Am I missing any other possible veins of morkite? 🤔

wraith shard

I am going insane over this second stage

#

we have been looking for morkite for like 20 minutes

vague raptor

I spent an hour before. It was not fun... 😬

crimson slate
vague raptor
#

I thought that my game was bugged or something when it happened to me the first time! 😅

harsh steppe
#

Essentially it shouldn't be able to generate the exact amount needed in the caves, so it's definitely an error. It should generate more, but for some reason it hasn't.

neat forum
#

spent 10 minutes rummaging thru stage for morkite too

last ones were 0.4 at the stone room and 0.1 left in one of the not-completely-mined veins

wraith shard
#

rip

i had some chill people in that game but what can ya do

vague raptor
#

I feel like the 0.4 morkite spot was supposed to be a proper vein of morkite. However, there's a puncture that occurred there... 🤔

Found this little spot with morkite immediately, so I didn't have big problems with it

dude ive gotten to 3rd part of edd and i actually think its impossible solo

i get one egg or 1 mule leg and i end up running for like 3 minutes while the game outspawns what im killing

#

i sit in a shield and shred as many enemies as i can only for twice the amount of enemies to spawn 5 seconds later cutting me off

#

the cave you go in has like 3 wardens 2 spitters a ton of mactera and like 3 praetorians

#

and then more spawns on top of all that + swarmageddon

dude im so stuck at the normal dd 3rd mission... cant find morkite xD

I just finished a deep dive where on the second mission someone ordered 6 resupplies….

im glad im not t he only one not finding the morkite im stuck in the 2nd mission looking for any scraps

There was some in the room with all the gunk and there was two veins in the Heartstone room.

its been 1 hours since my last piece of morkite xD

sterile hare

I think there was some also in the first room.

runic elm
#

i got the one in the first room, there was a little spot left of the heartstone

#

idr the 2nd on in the heartstone room

sterile hare

I may be thinking of the small room right after the first room or right before the last.

runic elm
#

there was a ssmall room after the first that had a geyser secret room with some

im missing 8

#

currently getting bosco to dig all the oil shale

The spot I remember in the heartstone room there was some in one of those offshoot tunnels but not tunnels.

Yea!

#

I got my last morkite from atop the one on the left I think

runic elm

found .6 in the goo room i missed

And you got the stuff from the first room way up top?

runic elm

i think so, it was directly above dorrettas drop zone to the right

Oh yea I meant like the first room she stops

i think so but im checking again

no way

we spent 1hr 12m as well for nothing

is it possible if the morkite is less than .1 it goes to waste?

thats actaully bs

it doesnt go to waste when you mine 0.1

prisma spear

thats going into the book of grudges

i mean less than .1

i think 0.1 is the minimum you can mine

ive never seen it go below 0.1

i was going to get stacks

we had 1.3k ahah

im only theorizing but its possible you have to mine it in a particular way or risk getting softlocked

yea it is

we had 3 detonators that took some out

so we had a bit less than needed we got most of the morkite out of that video

anyone find the stage 2 regualr deep dive morkite

Did you have detonators on that mission?

frozen fable
#

only one after i got everything done

#

so no

#

no dets destroyed anything

Well that's odd. Some are saying maxing out your morkite can lose some, due to rounding issues\

But my group didn't do that and was 4 short as well

#

We also had 3 detonators though

in my first attempt on this mission witha random group we got like 149.99999

#

I scrapped every tiny bit off the walls

frozen fable
#

im giving up on the DD so someone will jsut have to wake me up when theres dark morkite in the abyss bar

toxic snow
#

bullshit lol

#

im not gonna try again

#

I blame bosco

#

for my map

#

because when he mines, he doesnt get the full value

#

he always loses some

austere oasis
#

i just did it

#

i thought everyone was on the same page about the scarce morkite, but we were at 149 at the heartstone, so i went back and sure enough the engie had left the tiniest bit of morkite glinting in the goo

#

1 morkite

toxic snow
#

I even collected bits that didnt give me anything to deposit

austere oasis
#

welp

#

did you pick at morkite while your bag was full?

toxic snow
#

no

#

This week's elite is goated man, tuff solo job

austere oasis
#

dunno what to tell you, but there's pretty much exactly 150 morkite in the dd second stage

toxic snow
#

I've went through the entire map 4 times

#

nothing is left

austere oasis
#

how much do you have

toxic snow
#

149

austere oasis
#

rip

toxic snow
#

if the vein in the last cave wasnt glitched

#

its overwritten by some weird generation, causing it to be only a tiny amount instead of a full vein

#

then it would be fine

wind plinth
#

R u on regular deepdive

toxic snow
#

why, does the elite dive have the same issue?

wind plinth
#

No it's fricking hard

toxic snow
#

then why ask

wind plinth
#

Mactera constantly spawning on first stage

toxic snow
#

if you didnt have morkite troubles its obviously not the dive we talk about

wind plinth
#

I did the reg dd, no problems

#

Just wondering

toxic snow
#

its literally not possible to finish

austere oasis
#

it is

#

i'm telling you

toxic snow
#

no, there is no morkite left

austere oasis
#

yeah, morkite can get deleted by bad mining

wind plinth
#

The last of the morkite is on the cave to the back left of the dozer

toxic snow
#

I mined like I always do

hazy iris
#

tons of people stuck at 148

#

i just redid it with dark morkite

toxic snow
#

yeah need the beer

#

forcing a beer in a DD is stupid

hazy iris
#

hilarious that guy is blaming the player

#

search chat for 148

toxic snow
#

I got more than the average

#

he still blames me

#

with 149

#

man

#

not that it matters to me much

#

I got 50 cores banked up for the update

#

but still sucks

hazy iris
#

i wish we could see a total number of dwarf hours spent searching

#

my first run we blew like 4

toxic snow
#

I spend 30 mins

hazy iris
#

(1hr x 4 players)

toxic snow
#

was done with the dozer after 16 ish

#

and then went through the cave 4 times

#

thought I was going insane

#

but no, the map is just scuffed

#

hopefully they fix it or something, otherwise no normal DD this week IG xD

hazy iris
#

just dark morkite it's not that big of a deal

toxic snow
#

im not gonna do it again any time soon

#

and next wednesday when my group plays the dives, we wont sit around waiting for a beer

grizzled blade
#

once we got to the stone me and some other guy stayed for 5-10 minutes before we aborted

#

dont know why people stayed for so long

#

next time i hopped on i did it solo because dark morkite was already in rotation

hazy iris
#

me too

grizzled blade
hazy iris
#

imagine arguing in good faith that the average player should know how to manipulate hidden floating points for a rounding error

summer wigeon
#

you can do it without dark morkite

#

its possible, i've done it

#

it just SUCKS

#

we searched the cave until we discovered a tiny speck of it in a mined vein

Guys, here is what you have to do for that second mission in the normal DD, because I finished it. In the mine, there is a very limited amount of morkite, but you can finish the mission with good mining, and without the beer. Basically, there is something like 149.8 morkite available in total in the cave. First theoretical thing to know, is that when you have only 1 morkite in your inventory, it doesnt mean that you really have 1 morkite to deposit. The "1 morkite" in your inventory appears when you have less than 1 total morkite, for exemple when you have 0.4 morkite. The problem, is that if you deposit that 0.4 morkite in molly, it rounds down to 0 morkite deposited. BUT, if your "1 morkite" contains for exemple 0.8 morkite, it rounds up to 1 when you deposit it. So, considering this fact, when you are doing the mission, you first have to collect every single piece of morkite available, and second and most importantly, you have to deposit the last amount of morkite you have in molly in a quantity superior to 1. The thing is that if you find a little piece of morkite, for exemple egual to 0.4 morkite, that gives you 1 morkite in your inventory, you deposit it, it gives 0 deposited as described. Later, you find another 0.4 morkite, you deposit it, and again 0. The thing is that if you had kept your first 0.4 morkite, you would be at 0.8 now, and it would be egual to 1 morkite deposited, and not 0. BUT, in this mission, even if its contradictory with what i've just said, if you collect every piece of morkite as I described, you are gonna finish with something like 130 in the mule and 19 in your inventory, but if you deposit that 19 (considering that you respected what I described above) its gonna round up to 150 in the mule, and the mission is done.

In addition, mining with a near-full inventory will delete remainders from any chunks you pick up. This means that if you have 53/55 in your inventory, and you pick up 3, the remainder just… goes away.

THIS DEEP DIVE STAGE TWO IS STUPID

Holy hell they were right about the DD stage 2 morkite issue. We mined .3ish from the last tiny chunk in the hearthstone room and made 150... Barely.

Any good builds for rj250?

#

you had 0 morkite in your inventory, mined specifically 0.4, deposited it, and it went from 149 to 150?

#

is that right?

#

Could a detonator potentially prevent the mission from being doable? If it blows up on a stack of morkite?

#

Had to quit a deep dive I was doing just now after spending over an hour looking for 2 morkite that I was missing...

#

Couldn't find it anywhere.

So is there actually not enough morkite in stage 2
