Having trouble getting 150/150 Morkite on EDD or Normal DD?

Is it that bug again or just hard to find?
void vector
"hard" to find apparently. I think people have gotten complacent and jump to conclusions instead of properly looking, but I haven't tried it yet so eh. Just came in to check pins and saw oh so many mentions of missing morkite, and already seen heaps of mentions of where the "difficult" node is.

stage 2 elite: when devs don't play their own game
wraith shard
The seeds are not cherry-picked by the devs, it's all automated and randomly selected
blissful matrix
aren't deep dives fixed?
wraith shard
They are fixed, yes
blissful matrix
then what's your point?
thick jetty
Awhell naw haunted cave elim on the regular deep dive...
thick jetty
What happened this time
blissful matrix
if they played it, then they would have changed it
blissful matrix
@wraith shard how do you not understand the point?
@thick jetty yeah can't find the last few bits of morkite
wraith shard
Either you're being obtuse on purpose, or you genuinely are just misunderstanding my point
The seeds are randomised
If there's a problem with the seed, they eventually fix it following reports
warm light
EDD is decent this week, normal amount of nitra, stage 2 has a lot of sharks.
blissful matrix
okay, seems like you still don't understand the simple point that devs should have played the level before releasing, thereby avoiding the need to "fix" it later
wraith shard
There's literally been one bug with the morkite few weeks back in like forever, no need to get all up in arms "dEvS sHoUld PlAy TheIr GaMe"
candid bobcat
the seed is nothing but a random number, it is entirely possible that the cavegen still has issues
blissful matrix
indeed, the seed could be bad, which would have been caught if the devs played the game...
ITT: when you have to spell out 2+2 to people
thick jetty
They do play the game
They stream the dd and edd every week
candid bobcat
that is also not true, the devs do play their own game, but since seeds are randon there are edge cases hard to find or encounter
which is why #bug-discussion often appreciates report with seed for problems
blissful matrix

so devs played stage 2 EDD and thought the map was fine?
Devs play DDs on Thursdays and EDDs on Fridays. Have they played it before it generated and went public? No, there is no need. There literally was 1 Almost unbeatable DD in the history of DDs, the one with Exact amount of Morkite. On this one you have enough morkite, just need to spend some extra time looking for it.
Tho i assume they will look into this edge case
dawn zealot
seems like nobody wants to even attempt the edd lol

@left raptor If there's "just enough" morkite, then that's not a good design

As i said, they probably will look into this edge case, just as they did before. Your argument about "devs should play dds before they are public" is still invalid tho

Apparently its an extreamly rare cave generation case, considering there has been hundreds of DDs and only one and a half(to my knowledge) with little morkite to spare @blissful matrix

@left raptor Could be very common for all I care. Would've been caught in actual gameplay because it's a fixed seed every week

“Boo hoo, I wasted extra 10mins looking for the morkite”
To be fair, its a rare case and chasing morkite for 10 minutes is not exactly fun, especially if you are not scout

Sorry, my bad. On that note, tho, your “chat warning” was completely indistinguishable from any other message, which was proven by both me and my opponent completely missing it. @ping would be greatly appreciated in such cases. Therefore, my post was removed without any indication for me, for which i took a guess and decided that it was auto-moderated out for an f-word, so i retyped my message without it for it came to my mind that this is probably child-friendly server. And to conclude, i don’t think that it is obvious to everyone that a message from a green nickname is a message from a moderator - there are at least 3 tints of green in the chat.

warm light
bring cryo
Bring fire
Fire works in this EDD just as good, if not better, than cryo in this EDD.
Stage 3 has Twins, which Cryo is a terrible idea against, personally I prefer acid versus dreads, but you have a lot of horde clearing in this EDD, so I would say fire.
But regarding dets, they're not bad if you stack slows with your team, so SFS is recommended.
jolly hazel
its one dread
we got through with fire but I would have preferred cryo if I knew how many bulks spawn
horde clearing=autocannon gunner and engie lol
got two bulks per stage i believe
and the swarm coefficient is fucking cranked on the intermittent and announced swarms
warm light
Still, I would prefer to have a driller who can help during 90% of a twins fight.
jolly hazel
we got two swarmer swarms in a row and praetorian swarm right after so it wasn't as bad as it could be
if driller isn't running sludge he is a very good bait for lacerator lol
fire doesn't do much to dreads iirc
warm light
Also as I said, bulks aren't necessarily a problem if you get out fo the way/make them blow far away.
jolly hazel
plus no aoe so he can just cold radiance
yeah well you dont get a choice during escort boss fight if team isn't in voice chat
unless the team knows exactly what to do, someone is going to break the chain of events needed to lure the bulk out while fighting escort swarm
warm light
That's why the drill has two sides you can sacrifice, if you blow the dread near the drill you'll only lose one.
jolly hazel
imo bulks are 10x the problem twins are
yeah well every team isn't in the position to lose an armor
I think we got pushed to just hull after a really shitty sandstorm and spitter spawn w/ a trawler and it the bulk next to the drill had gone off without it being frozen we would have lost
warm light
If you're playing an EDD, you most likely are, because at that point you're all good enough to get the drill to the core with both sides.
jolly hazel
you do realize everyone who is promoted can do an edd
let me re emphazie
everyone
the shitters will need their cryo
also retarded shit can happen during escort boss battle as I've experienced so adding a bulk ontop of that, I could see an uncoordinated team lose all three during the last phase if a pair of bulks spawn
iirc the seeded disruptive enemies differ from group to group (somehow)
but its sandblasted so I dont think shellbacks spawn
ok thank God I've had a team wipe to just shellbacks

I personally found it quite fun. Not extremely hard, just the right level. Abundance of nitra throughout the entire dive which makes it a bit easier.
You just have to come out prepped for lethal enemies which caught me out a bit.

Yes

here's where the last pocket of morkite is on this week's EDD
thankfully after finding that last pocket the rest of the EDD was smooth

Doing the EDD when Dark Morkite on tap might be a boon just for stage 2

Worth saving the headache, if you don't mind going in without other more useful buffs
Then again, ideally you should clear dives without beers, just saying
jade tusk
That's leaf lover language I'm hearing

.... well okay, that sounded wrong
What I'm trying to say is, a dive cleared without blasters, is a dive that is no problemo with blasters, know what I mean?
Still, doesn't mean you shouldn't, get those buffs

That's just if you host. Has nothing to do with joining or seeing others' games.
If there are no available games just host your own, otherwise keep checking once in a while.

When looking for a DD to join I do actually have to click Public to find joinable lobbies.

Gather at least 160 on regular dives per stage; it'll give you a supply for that stage if you need it, and one for the next.

I’ve always done them solo just so I can use resupplies at my leisure

deep dives dont really matter
elite deep dives can make or break with randoms

I've never had any real problems with normal deep dives, and elite deep dives normally at least get through second stage, depending on how nasty third stage is.

It's a gamble but I was getting lucky most of the time and had no issues doing EDD's with randoms

I generally good pubs on EDD, but it depends on the stages and what the spawning director throws at us

Aye, I've only had to redo second stage in EDD a couple of times in all the time I've played.

Only EDD that gives me restarts is one where the game fucks us over with real bad swarms or if hidden Nitra starved modifier is active

yeah the stage ones where you only have enough for 1 resup is tough

That;s still the minimal 2 resupplies during the Heartstone segment...assuming you're not matched with a bunch of stormtroopers for dwarfs

wasn't too bad but we were definitely running super low at the end of it

It you drop down the fuel pod a bit you free up line of sight. I personally don't like it because it shrinks the bubble, but each to their own.

Often to allow more sight lines. Helps for sentry guns so they can shoot more bugs.
ivory tulip
thanks!
dim gorge
I usually dig the uplinks down a little but not the fuel cells. With uplinks it's a viable option, you lose a tiny bit of radius but you're more free to shoot and move around
Mostly so that the box itself is close to ground level
jade tusk
Usually it's better to clear the stuff around the Drop pod area itself to give you as much Line of sight as possible
split marlin
and less places to get caught on
dim gorge
That's a given, proper use of bug repellent platforms helps a lot too
jade tusk
And a escape tunnel (Within reason) for "OH SHIT" moments

Are the electrominelets any good on the BRT?
They can definitely be fun. NTP + electro turns gunner into an ultimate crowd control beast. just make sure you have someone else in your party who is spec'd to take out HVTs

I'm not sure why people get upset over the game, if it ever gives me grief I just use cheat engine.

It's important to remember it's just a game, but at the same time. Cheating is very Leaf Lover move

What isn't a leaf lover move at this point?
I've been kicked from groups for having the wrong loadout or choosing the wrong character, or using something differently from someone's imaginary way of using it. Everything is a leaf lover move.
The game's supposed to be fun, besides I paid for it.
jade tusk
I rarely been kicked. Though I stay away from servers that strict requirements such as "Must be rank 400+, diamond promo dwarfs, no mining anything, Kill loot bug = instant kick"
All for a haz 3 mission in Hollow bough

I don't. I avoid those servers at all cost
And as a old Robber simulator saying goes

Not two from the same one.

That... is the way it's done though.
Don't try your fancy smancy logic here.
Tradition before all

That... is the way it's done though.
You have two resupply pods next to each other. Everyone needs to get two resupplies. Everyone gets 2 resupplies because there are 8 total.
It doesn't matter what order you take them in.
void vector
It does too!
deep hamlet
Unless you are very peculiar about your specific brand of autism, I guess.
jade tusk
Only time I need 2 resupply pods back to back is I'm playing Engie and I forgot to bring my ammo efficient loadout
deep hamlet
For example my brand of autism is only using default cosmetics. I can't stand anything custom.

Worst EDD Stage 3 of my life.
No like, thankfully we had Dark Morkite to make things go by faster, but I was not prepared for the Stage 3 after breezing past the first two. Neither was my team, because we nearly Wiped twice.
Spoilers for the EDD
Nemesis, kinda exists, thankfully we led it away from the Dreadnought Cocoon. Poor Scout got Leech'd trying to get away. Dude IWs himself to full health after presumably seeing the Detonator that spawned while we were backing into the first room away from the Nem. After we let that happen, we meet the Det at the far end of Nem's tunnel. Have a small struggle fighting it and the Wardens that came with it, before the Scout gets a cool Resupply kill on it. Why was a second Detonator necessary? We dealt with the second one faster, but then we had a Swarm approach. Also we fought in the crater of the first Det, and then we manage to kill the second one before the Swarm came. We'll have a Storm now, and a 4 Wipe, if you'd like.
tl;dr Nemesis, 2 Detonators, a Swarm, a Storm, and Team Wipe with me using IW and throwing my shield and grenades whenever, and the Cocoon in the same room we struggled in did not break throughout that whole thing, miraculously.
Also The Twins made us Wipe, after 3 of us used IW. Engineer came in clutch with his IW, Driller had an Instant Revive after, and then we were ready to gtfo after.
Had Sticky Nades to pair with my Salvo and Six Shooter, I felt like I was actually playing Gunner when I was being forced to use my shield for a Swarm. So much so I had to double dip.

incredible storytelling 👏
gleaming cave
I was highly upset, I couldn’t tell you if 1 Warden existed during the SwarmStorm, or if one of them died only to be shortly replaced with a second Warden. There was 2 Detonator Craters and that room still wasn’t large enough despite being the room with the Dread cocoon,
I guess our Engineer getting grabbed and carried off during a Storm while Doretta was drilling the Heartstone was foreshadowing. Also, we fought in total 2 Detonators from her. Once in the beginning, once near the very end (neither dealt a lot of damage to her, bless the Repulsion Shield)

I think for my Heartstone Det, it was during one of the Neutral Swarm phases. I was sure that it was going to steal a piece before I could put a second shield up, but there was just enough distance between it and Dotty to leave a crater without harming Dotty.

As a fast tip. If you repair a Dotty segment to 100%. Dotty gets a few seconds of damage immunity
You can use it to save Dotty from losing a segment from a Bulk going KA-BOOM on it

thx for this
waxen terrace
you can ask your scout to dive in and get the remaining morkite then zip out
nemmy is also relatively slow

This is shaping up to be one of the worst EDDs ever.

man that armpit of morkite is the worst
took us like 7 minutes to find that vein behind the pillar
odd shadow
this is the worst edd I've ever had
almost 1k mined looking for mork
I had no business passing stage 2 after wasting half an hour and resupps
silver spoke
Is the new EDD second stage bugged again? Is dark morkite required
pseudo jacinth
is Elite deep dive stage two softlocked morkite again?
dim gorge
No, but the last vein you need is pretty well hidden by terrain. There were posts above telling and showing the location
oak jay
THANK YOU. ALMOST SOFT LOCKED.
pseudo jacinth
we already left before we could see that lol
re lobbied with a room sellign dark morkite
oak jay
We got the Dark Morite after the dive. Cruel trick.
unkempt saffron
is Elite deep dive stage two softlocked morkite again?
no, but recommended to take dark morkite imo
gleaming plinth
Had quite some bad luck with this EDD. First try went looking for morkite while 2 ppl guarded dozer, both died by the time me and other got back dozer dead. Second try power went out as stage 2 end and i was not able to join back. And last try we had nemesis, dreds and detonator all active at once that killed us

were there any holes in the ceiling?

Wait where is the extra vein? Got disbanded cause we never found it
wraith shard
Up on some pillar. I've lost this like 10X. Why do my teams have so much trouble with a basic omorian extraction???
terse saddle
im also stuck with another guy finding 3 morkite

Refueling room, up on a pillar. Hard to describe beyond that but have faith it's there
dry charm
what room is that god forsaken morkite vein in
gritty kraken
where to go to invite people to a deep dive?
ah, LFG channels. sorry, answered me own question
gritty kraken
not sure, never done one. Tried one solo because I thought maybe someone could join if I listed it publicly but no dice
I died in the first cave, would be interesting to see if it's the same, if people join...

are the deep dive missions always the same?
Same caves and pre-spawned enemies like spitballer and leeches
It changes each week

This is correct.

Leaning pillar in refueling room, walk under it and look up.

yeah, its where the drill dozer stopped

Ya think that's done deliberately?

No, I don't think the devs handcraft maps... it's just RNG being RNG.
merry forum
ngl the only annoying part of this edd was the morkite in dozer
did the edd as a duo lol
sleek light
Gah, when team mates build a bunker and don't tell you...
I am a bit doubtful of that bunker tactic. Seems you are setting yourself up to be overwhelmed if you want to leave it...
When done.
blissful maple
were there any holes in the ceiling?
I mean probably? But we waited around for like 10 mins after it vanished hoping it would reappear, so I don't think it was hiding in a hole
jaunty flame
Got a bug with the last deep dive, arbalest boss didn't come back again
After killing the lacerator
blissful maple
Oh hey you and me both
analog thistle
good bunkers have an 80% built escape route
but bunker is usually bad idea in general
valid ginkgo
What's up with the second stage of EDD not having enough Morkite? We can't find the last 4. It's always 146/150.
safe gulch
Check a pillar in one of the refuelling rooms
One of the nooks has a very, very well hidden vein of morkite
valid ginkgo
Interesting, thank you!
wraith shard
If you bunker here you probably going to get bulk detonated
fallen jetty
Bunkering has a low win rate in my experience. Worked okay for the edd but man was it dicey and felt like luck that it worked. I always prefer just fighting and kiting.
modern heath
Is it only me who cant find all the morkite on the weekly deep dive elite?
somber hatch
its behind a sand pillar in one of the last rooms
to the 'left' if youre facing the dozer from behind it
about 15m up and hidden decently well

It didn't count for the objective either

We had two bulks as we popped the dread

rare opportunity to use the bulks to kill the dread

as scout you can grapple past the unknown terror baiting an attack dealing high damage to the dreads
also i killed the hivegaurd with a resupply

How difficult are deep dives?
I'm working on promoting my scout and was thinking about doing a deep dive for the first time after but I have no idea how hard they are
