in those situations scout is genuinely worse
#deep-dive-discussion
jolly hazel
its still good, as its scouts only real waveclear primary
can't have a generalist class
mental urchin
engi still exists
jolly hazel
engie does not have much mobility outside of down and rj250
mental urchin
or aquarqs, or refining
mental urchin
you simply cant hang around for too long since waves are growing bigger with time
and by the time you clear one, the other spawns in
jolly hazel
kill better
mental urchin
oh my bad
neat talon
Scout can solo things just fine, and the crossbow can be set to do all sorts of interesting things, and embedded detonators are great but you can do similar things with the crossbow if you want to mix things up.
jolly hazel
versus being forced to do the thing scout sucks at
I tried ghetto detonators with trifork and it felt a little clunky
mostly because projectile versus hitscan
neat talon
Trifork is kind of tricky for general use. I've got a dread strategy for it, but still figuring it out for general exploration
mental urchin
whatever ill just main driller for now
jolly hazel
based
mental urchin
gotta hit that plat promotion
neat talon
I just don't have a feel for what to hit with the triforks yet
jolly hazel
I just save for anything bigger than a goo bomber
I am pretty sure it one shots a warden
neat talon
That's good to know
jolly hazel
bodkins felt pretty good
neat talon
I'd like to use it outside of elimination..
jolly hazel
but slow
neat talon
Bodkins are my jam right now.
I think, if you add banshee modules and the speed boost after kills, it really mitigates the reload speed
Things scatter, you kite easier... but there's a big risk/reward, cause if you miss you get punished
jolly hazel
I just usually feel
why am I not using my primary
with bodkins
unless its like m1k single target build
neat talon
Oh, well I think you spec your primary for big bugs, and use the bodkins on the lil bugs, if you want to run bodkin
Glyphids and mactera to spread ricochets, then primary for praets and armored stuff
void vector
taser bolts are OP right now, here's hoping devs drag their feet with fixin' em.
neat talon
I don't know that they're OP, you have to spend a lot of them to get that sweet stacking DoT
void vector
specialist - taser bolts - extra special bolts.. 21 bolts with is it 19.5 second duration. Two bolts into anything stops them in their tracks and does steady damage.
Especially on bots
neat talon
That's a build idea... nice
I hadn't thought to go all in on taser bolts like that but that sounds really fun
void vector
Yeah I used it on this EDD, Plasma Carbine with impact deflection as primary. Used the normal bolts from crossbow as sniping/extra damage
Worked nicely
glossy walrus
double taser was good even before the patch that fixed the arc not applying, looking forward to when console gets that to make it even stronger
super nice on dreads, horror included
echo storm
i will always use drak and nuk 25s
plain narwhal
question for the masses - how hard is the EDD normally? I have never attempted it before. My squad and i generally just run haz3 missions and find most normal deep dives to be slightly difficult but doable
azure quail
question for the masses - how hard is the EDD normally? I have never attempted i...
EDDs are pretty manageable if you do your research and fix ur build accordingly
coordination helps
also keep in mind EDD difficulty is haz 4.5-5-5.5
neat talon
There will be a massive jump in difficulty from haz 3/DD to EDD.
plain narwhal
also keep in mind EDD difficulty is haz 4.5-5-5.5
this is exactly what i was looking for. Should probably start doing some haz4 before jumping into EDDs
Thank you!
old basin
it's twins so it's not as bad as it sounds
you just keep them up in the landing room & circle a bit more carefully than usual to avoid the horror
prisma oxide
Twins are my worst tho, especially at high diff.
Too fast and when 4 balls fly paralel to the ground, rip
prisma oxide
Hiveguard > Regular > Twins imo
devout jetty
Mhm
prisma oxide
Hiveguard is just a slog
But not really a threat
Regular can kill you instantly if you arent careful and sometimes bit hard to hit
Twins just dash around too much, even if you can shoot anywhere
With a team, they are easiest tho
old basin
i find them to be a pain in the ass with a team honestly
but then again that's mostly because half the lobbies i end up in completely ignore arbalest, so we end up wasting a lot of ammo for no real reason
odd vector
i tend to only attack arbalest because it seems no one else does lol
prisma oxide
They can both be pinged and focus on diff ppl so not as much of a threat someone dies
Dunno, seems its about 50/50
I just shoot on what I see
burnt sandal
everyone's got a different opinion on the dreads, if anything it means they are mostly well balanced
prisma oxide
Each is quite unique
neat charm
the haunted modifier in stage 2
theres an invincible bulk constantly chasing you that can only do its normal attack
neat talon
No I mean, how are the twins easier with ghost
old basin
it's the way they move
old basin
in solo it's really easy for hiveguard / classic & the ghost to sync up their movements
so you spend a decent amount of time waiting for them to finally desync enough to actually get some damage in, as otherwise you either have the ghost eating bullets, or just preventing you from getting close enough for weapons like boomstick to be effective on their weak points
neat charm
stage 2 wouldve been an absolute nightmare if the dread was a hiveguard
old basin
whereas with twins they're fairly mobile (+ move around a lot, obviously) & you can shoot anywhere, alongside not having to deal with wasting time during damage phases
old basin
stage 2 wouldve been an absolute nightmare if the dread was a hiveguard
^^
hiveguard would've been an actual nightmare
it's already the most ammo-hungry in solo due to the sentinels always rotating as fast you move for some reason, alongside having the most effective health when you factor in sentinels even with the weakpoint bonus
so having something that just eats bullets alongside a limited damage window is an actual nightmare
olive crown
The Twins aren't too much of a problem if you clear a spot to handle them.
However it's really easy for them to get popped early because the egg is in a really shitty spot and if the Horror decides to path through it your run can be over before it begins.
dapper musk
ive got experience with deep dives both in co op and solo. would you say theres any prerequisites before going into EDDs?
neat talon
whereas with twins they're fairly mobile (+ move around a lot, obviously) & you ...
ohhh I totally misunderstood that comment. Twins easier than other dreads w/ghost, haha, that makes sense
old basin
i find them to be the easiest in general when it comes to solo in general
hiveguard is technically straight-up the easiest but it's such an ammo sponge that it barely gets itself above the twins
slow rover
I just don't have a feel for what to hit with the triforks yet
use electro focus shots with triforks
much less clunky than taser swap
get to keep pheromone util
neat talon
Twins trip me up just because I'm having to track two things that can kill me instead of one. I like me dreadnaught classic, at least as scout, where I can get to his weakspot easily enough
old basin
classic is the hardest but that's solely because it can one tap you :P
neat talon
use electro focus shots with triforks
Love me trifork. Tase/IFG -> trifork is such a boss combo
neat talon
Stack the IFG and conductive shafts and it hits hard as shit
old basin
trifork is just clunky to use imo
it requires setup & anything trifork does can be done better by embedded dets zhukov
neat talon
It does require setup, but the tase slowdown really simplifies things for me.
It just feels right hunting it with a crossbow lol
neat talon
But I've used embeded dets too, and I feel you. They wreck dreads and oppressors
old basin
boltshark comes with pheromones though
fair, but if you're using pheromones it's usually better take something that can take advantage of the enemy clusters, like heat / cryo bolts or hipster M1k
slow rover
variety is good anyways
the game wouldn't be very fun if its just one or two builds for endgame
neat talon
I don't think you can pair embedded dets with any decent cc option that works on dreads, but I could be wrong. I find IFGs too hard to use effectively when they're at full spped.
old basin
i think trifork could be really good if it just didn't suffer from spread anywhere near as much as it does
since then it'd have a legitimate niche as a long-range, high burst option instead of just filling the same niche embedded dets does
slow rover
it basically mandates the use of magnetic shafts yeah
old basin
but atm i feel like it's just a trap, esp since every other crossbow OC has a justified, viable use
neat talon
Yeah, but magnetic shafts are good, and scout has a ton of options for electric
old basin
it basically mandates the use of magnetic shafts yeah
the problem is even with magnetic shafts, the range isn't as good as you'd assume
neat talon
And magnetic shafts help with the spread since it pulls arrows into it
slow rover
its a mid range homing burst with small setup
that provides special bolts
its a good sidegrade
also very satisfying
old basin
the spread of the bolts usually puts the outer two out of range of shaft homing at the same range embedded dets starts to become too inconsistent to aim effectively
slow rover
i rarely use embedded
so i cannot comment
but anything that isn't like
across the whole cave
slow rover
i just use the m1k
neat talon
embedded will nearly one mag an oppressor, it's fun
old basin

:P
i've only touched dets once since S2 came out
crossbow is by far my favourite secondary & i've been using it almost exclusively
neat talon
Anyways the DDs are fun... lol
slow rover
standard waveclear m1k with efs is definitely a great pairing with triforks
i've played exclusively that for the past 5 hrs on scout or something
you could try it!
prisma oxide
Its pretty good
old basin
standard waveclear is just hipster/blowthrough, right?
slow rover
it definitely
prisma oxide
Hard vs twins tho
slow rover
standard waveclear is just hipster/blowthrough, right?
more like minimal clips build
but with efs instead
13213
old basin
ah
i tried running the minimal clips build but it just doesn't fit my playstyle well
slow rover
there's definitely a heavy overreliance on the m1k over the boltshark though
i always run out of ammo before even hitting 40% on the boltshark
could be a player issue
slow rover
ah
i tried running the minimal clips build but it just doesn't fit my playstyle ...
slowly one tap grunts
it definitely felt strange since i played only sbb drak
before that
but its really high power
you can definitely outperform engies
prisma oxide
tapbs wildly into crowd
slow rover
you also consume ammo as fast as they do
prisma oxide
3 bullets/grunt
old basin
could be a player issue
it's a mission issue a lot of the time
i've had some missions where i've torn through bolts & others where i've went through multiple resupplies without the bolts going down more than 4-5 inbetween
old basin
and tbf the standard waveclear just meshes really poorly with explosive/cryo bolts
prisma oxide
Explosive ones are pretty meh
Fun to use, but if there are any teammates, driller/gunner will probably just slide his cursor past your wave and deletes it before it even goes off
slow rover
Explosives never work
old basin
i've found them to be super good personally, esp in solo
hipster focus shot / weakpoint hit + bolt is an instant grenade p much
prisma oxide
They work, just hit with it and execute with mk1
slow rover
You’re just not going to be left alone with a big group
old basin
it's defo obnoxious to use in groups sometimes
slow rover
Max value I’m getting is like
prisma oxide
Yupp, thats the issue
slow rover
2 collaterals
prisma oxide
pops it on oppresor
old basin
but then again the groups i've been in where they haven't worked are the same groups that start flaming a breeder i've already marked with two cryo bolts, so they're usually not willing to let you do anything :P
slow rover
I only found taser bolts to be useful with the infinite duration bug
Then it was pretty funny
old basin
they absolutely suck
slow rover
Otherwise meh
waxen terrace
explosives are now better since they detonate faster
old basin
still waiting for them to actually implement the damage buff though
slow rover
They might be better but like
waxen terrace
but if you ask me, if youre using m1k for priority kills use bodkin for the xbow
prisma oxide
You can take electric to tag stuff for shafts if you take cryo grenades
waxen terrace
also pheromones >>>>
old basin
i feel like people really oversell pheromones
they're really good but they're also not the be-all-end-all that people make them out to be
prisma oxide
They are great CC
slow rover
I think its because you can carry both those and cryo nadea
waxen terrace
its not gonna kill stuff, but it makes dealing with HVTs in a swarm easier
slow rover
That’s the selling point
waxen terrace
nah
prisma oxide
If teammates dont all target now glowing enemy -.-
waxen terrace
phero + ifg
slow rover
The point is you can have pheromones without actually using the nade slot
waxen terrace
its good for oppressors when it isnt facing you
slow rover
That’s why you might even consider using boltshark over the other secondaries maybe
old basin
The point is you can have pheromones without actually using the nade slot
i prefer running cryo bolts + phero nades
if i need pheromones for CC i usually want to immobilise an entire group instantly
prisma oxide
I managed to do 1.7k dmg to dread somehow with it

At least thats what the mod said :P

i rather just use subata by then cause cwc tempshock is annoying to reapply now
waxen terrace
yea just use subata
slow rover
Maybe but
old basin
all driller primaries lack sustained single target besides like, face melter or cryo + subata
slow rover
I personally don’t like that gun
waxen terrace
cryo also sucks with single target dps unless youre using ice spear
prisma oxide
Ice spear is pretty epic single target tho
slow rover
Its fine enough
waxen terrace
it makes all other weapons excel at single dps, but the gun itself still takes forever to kill tanky stuff
old basin
cryo drills is still mostly CC though
hoary cove
Wave cooker definitely made sticky flames a lot better
how
slow rover
Disbars?
hoary cove
lol mb
slow rover
Maybe not, but you don’t need to displace as much
And i play fairly stationary with sticky flames driller
hoary cove
it was only really good at killing oppressors when it was bugged
slow rover
Has it been changed?
waxen terrace
yes
waxen terrace
you have to reapply burn everytime you trigger tempshock now
slow rover
Wasn’t that the case already
waxen terrace
and for oppressors itll take ages with sticky
waxen terrace
no on day 1 it didnt dispel heat
slow rover
I personally didn’t feel like the reheating cycle was bad
hoary cove
I personally didn’t feel like the reheating cycle was bad
it was

yea that got fixed

now its slower than subata in gunning down burning HVTs in the butt

I feel like the dread on the second mission is probably the hardest part of this weeks edd
it's otherwise not horrible
signal spear
EDD is really tough this time, what gunner weapon should I bring? Minigun or AC?
signal spear
I tried max firerate max AoE ac, but it's such an ammo hog
cursive kestrel
It isnt if you use neurotoxin payload
cursive kestrel
Even carpet bomber or splintering shells will cut it
signal spear
oh, I used carpet bomber. Should I take off firerate?
cursive kestrel
I dont think accuracy benefits the autocannon much
Because its never pinpoint accurate either way
Did you use your secondary effectively as well?
Because carpet bomber is your aoe kit, so your secondary will need to do the heavy lifting for killing the big bugs
Overly relying on just 1 gun will screw you badly on edd
Being wasteful with your shots too
signal spear
I used my neurotoxin+elephant rounds revolver, but that's low on ammo too
Should I have just used the brt?
terse delta
Should I have just used the brt?
If you find yourself using your secondary in close quarter situations only, then take lead spray brt, otherwise, elephant is good because it still has perfect accuracy on the first shot, letting you snipe
cursive kestrel
If your kit is fine, the only thing left is gitting gud
cursive kestrel
EDD is hard, no questions about it
terse delta
What is the edd this week like
cursive kestrel
Hellish for the first 2 stages
terse delta
but why was it hellish
cursive kestrel
1st stage is swarmers/jellies every 10 secs
Very ammo draining if you don use your aoe gun effectively
signal spear
the haunted stage is worse
especially since our scout just rushed eggs when we needed to resupply 
cursive kestrel
2nd stage is haunted in a terrible cave and very warm hoxxes welcome
Egg hunts should never be rushed unless your teams on the ball
More casual teams should clear the cave systematically
Then pull eggs once everybody is ready
signal spear
90 ammo in my minigun and 0 shields when the swarm warning comes up 
terse delta
reminds me of a particular salt pits EDD where it was morkite mining, which made the cave absurdly tiny and twisted, then warning was horror, then secondary was kill a dread which made it so much worse
cursive kestrel
Pulling egg in 20 secs into the mission is suicide
terse delta
not really
everyone is full on ammo
but if your team is not coordinating then it is never a good idea to surprise them with an egg
ready checks save lives
cursive kestrel
I do edd with randos and yes
My fails are 80% attributed to randos pulling eggs without warning
Or rushing down into the pit and dying there
Leaving me alone with the initial spawns, the ghost and no nitra
terse delta
I also play with randoms, ready checking is normal at least on my servers
Only time I solo EDDs if its no dozer, or no refinery
because it just takes so long as scout its not worth imo
cursive kestrel
Refinery is chill with driller solo
Just zen
Even with a dread in the mix
The pipes are just so clutch to escape
Need a breather? Pipes to the rescue
Resupply? Plant a pod next to pipes for easy access
Low o2 is best solo too
glossy walrus
I do find accuracy useful on ac, because while it's never accurate, taking accuracy means fewer shots wasted before the thing's aim finally calms down and I can shoot somewhere near where I'm aiming
I'm using ntp so don't really need the fire rate anyway, it's probably a closer choice for cb or ss
cursive kestrel
For carpet bomber firing rate is better imo
Because it needs to shoot until it kills
Unlike neuro that can stop once everything is running scared and poisoned
And for swarmer purposes, i find i mostly aim at the general direction or my feet
Never actually going for direct hits unless the thing is praet sized or above
waxen terrace
carpet bomber defo doesnt need the accuracy cause it has a giant aoe
only one that really needs accuracy is big bertha, and it already has reduced spread
terse delta
Sometimes I really don't see the appeal of the autocannon for normal swarms
Leadstorm gets blowthrough, and is way more accurate at base
seriously though
I run leadstorm leadstorm, BT + cold as grave
I never overheat, meaning I never need to "reload", and blowthrough just rips apart lines of bugs
waxen terrace
blowthrough doesnt work if the bugs are crawling on a wall
terse delta
It doesn't need to, LSLS still does more damage than BB while maintaining its accuracy to hit those wall bugs
It doesn't hit multiple bugs on the wall true, but I can just let them crawl down
I understand there are definitely situations where AC is 100% better
but some of those seem so niche, and at least in my experience with the general situations, LS just outperforms
waxen terrace
ehh not really
waxen terrace
autocannon has way more coverage for swarm clear than the minigun would ever have even with penetration
closest thing the minigun has for aoe is burning hell which is close range
terse delta
Could you recommend me a carpet bomber build? I would like to try
my current AC is rate of fire BB

either that or t5a, whichever works tbh since theyre both really minor

~~it was bugged?~~how?
unkempt saffron
ofc it is
Im not particularly fond of damage resistance on a weapon, not saying its bad just dont really find i need it at all
rocky cipher
when a slasher hits you and you still have shields youll understand
junior fossil
the damage resistance is there for getting swamped, it really depends on playstyle
unkempt saffron
If i get swarmed i just drop a shield, works easy enough for me
rocky cipher
I have a bias though, Im a BIG fan of tank gunner
junior fossil
sometimes the shield goes on cooldown 😛
a swarm iirc is like 3 mins, a shield is 30 sec, you can get swarmed several times in that time
unkempt saffron
The swarms wont be coming at you instantly, thats why i move around an clump the swarm up if possible
If they do end up overwhelming then drop a shield and boom reset
junior fossil
sometimes they show up from the wrong spot though 😛
the surprise trijaws are amazing
unkempt saffron
Even if they do theres not going to be an overwhelming amount of them too
rocky cipher
oh boy
unkempt saffron
Its simply a matter of making space and staying aware, thats all
rocky cipher
when the game silently spawns a wave of slashers and grunts , while you deal with swarmers for swarmagedon we will see
unkempt saffron
If youre using cb then swarmers arent a threat, more of a joke

Make the most of terrain manipulation, and have a solid team.

void vector
what are some general tips for elite dives?
I feel ok on Haz 5 and on normal div...
Do the same stuff you do in Haz 5 just a tiny bit faster essentially. Be proactive about terrain clearing, setting up ziplines, always focus on nitra first, think ahead as driller about where to put ramps or tunnels to help the team. Try to keep the place lit as well as possible as scout without wasting all your flares.. just usual haz 5 stuff really, just need to crank up the speed and situational awareness a tiny notch.
cursive kestrel
Also helps to memorize the stages
Memorizing where the nitra and objectives cut down time spent exploring
void vector
As gunner on escort (should always take max size shield) you need to keep an eye out for bulks so you can delay/steer them with a well placed shield.. that kinda stuff.

It's usually my wife and I. And we usually do it with two randoms to fill out the squad. Did this weeks twice, once with her and a level 40 scout and once with two others from Discord and a random.
The one with the sandblasted from the previous week I think I failed twice, both in the 2nd stage as the salvage pod was counting down. Once with random, once with just us duo.
I've done plenty with just randoms, some fail and some succeed. When you get an experienced enough team most people just know what to do without having to be on comms - though playing with regulars is really helpful.

no wait, so salvage mission doesn't have extra nitra veins in the cave gen but has nitra+gold in the mini mules, correct?
gusty meteor
Yep
Can easily get a resupply from just fixing the mules with no mining needed
Legs are attached by holding the leg and then interacting with the corresponding Mini-M.U.L.E. Once all three legs have been attached, the Mini-M.U.L.E must be repaired. Repairing a M.U.L.E will reward the team with between 40-60 Nitra and 40-60 Gold.
So even if your extremely unlucky, you get enough for a resupply pod

A lot of surplus nitra
The caves are pretty nice. On stage 3 around the drop pod there’s many crystals but they don’t affect much of anything
a bulk spawned on stage 3 right at the end
Still not a problem
Exploder infestation could be a problem but it’s a pretty open cave for the most part on stage 1

Maybe its just my headphones or maybe I have the volume a bit too high, but exploders do have a distinct tappity-tap when they move around. You can hear them sneak up on you, the hiss after that really is your final warning and cue to dash out of there. Or maybe try to stay calm and tap them in the head so they dont explode at all. But thats not always an option if they bundle up on you.

so other teammates were running out before I was
feral atlas
shield disrupt is one of those hazards that becomes a soft buff as you get better
stray ruin
buff?
like the rewards, or
the gameplay experience?
feral atlas
normal gameplay expected of experienced players at high hazard is to not get hit in the first place, so the no shield thing doesn't factor in; but on the other hand the mutator reduces bug damage by 30% and spawns more red sugar
stray ruin
oh
so the more red sugar is actually a thing, I thought it was just me
cool
feral atlas
In some cirucmstances, it actually makes things easier sometimes, esp with red rock
as in you can tank certain dread attacks
off the 30% bug damage reduction
just eating fireballs
stray ruin
30% less damage that's crazy
in exchange your shield is only like, 15 health or something? (obv it regenerates but still)
oh 25, sorry
feral atlas
I typically take 25 shield since it should only be relied on to stop chip damage, so quicker regen delay is better for that purpose
145 HP pool in that case with all armor masteries and healty
208 HP with the bug damage debuff on shield disrupt
stray ruin
ah yes percentage damage reduction vs flat damage reduction
as in the shield reduces damage to your health ideally
feral atlas
So basically, shield disrupt punishes you for taking chip damage all the time
but actually lets you survive bigger single damage attacks
If you're a gunner with explosive resist it adds up
and you just face tank fireballs sometimes
so, to reiterate, if you're actually good at the game, in certain cases shield disrupt actually makes it easier
stray ruin
I learned something today ty

stage 2 is alright, stage 3 was really a breeze
