[narrow bear]

no the icon is lit up as if they were talking

and throughout some of the games ive been in the mic symbol flashes

[eager herald]

Probably in party chat

[narrow bear]

no i mean in game

not party chat mic symbol

[eager herald]

The symbol shows up in the game sometimes when I’m in party chat

[narrow bear]

ooh yea

yea i know about that but thats for a split second and not the entire match

[stuck chasm]

Hello everyone. Hows it going?

[narrow bear]

nothing much, you?

[stuck chasm]

Coffee and Drg.

Early morning for some reason

[narrow bear]

when do you get the white armor paintjob? im trying to get it so i can make a storm trooper driller, I read the wiki and it said player level 40 assignment which is what i did but i got some crappy one instead.

[mossy hatch]

Regal Aegis = Player Level 60

[narrow bear]

aw rip

so the wiki IS outdated then

[mossy hatch]

I mean, I just looked it up

https://deeprockgalactic.fandom.com/wiki/Armor_Skins

Not sure what you found

[narrow bear]

neither honestly

[clever trail]

[stuck chasm]

Is a team that coordinates and works together, too much to ask for?

[narrow bear]

so it turns out you can build a pipeline ontop of the rocket part of the refinery

[covert valve]

How does it affect the rocket while deployment after collection?

[narrow bear]

it just ignores the pipes lol

but its still funny

I need to recreate the "Driller builds worst pipeline" image

[covert valve]

Lol

[narrow bear]

cant have shit in angry gorge

that was so chaotic

thats nothing lmao

[light notch]

go drunk to a mission with dx12's texture render bugs

i dare you

[narrow bear]

i had a detonator on the hacking pod for a thumper then STRAIGHT after that a dreadnaught spawned, we ended the mission then another fking detonator spawned on us

the most chaotic mission ive ever had

[brittle creek]

uh i seen someone there blue level was 5k is that possible?

or no

[mossy hatch]

Not legitimately. People cheat

[brittle creek]

i figured that much

[mossy hatch]

No idea why. Why are they bothering to play a game they clearly do not want to play, when there's so many other options? I get the feeling even they don't know...

[brittle creek]

idk either but that just ruin the fun

it’s a good game cheating just ruins it for other players

[mossy hatch]

They really only ruin their own fun, at least, in this case. Their silly numbers don't affect anyone else

[brittle creek]

yes very true

[crystal plover]

Have a good Sunday Miners

[pulsar spindle]

I'm not sure if I'll be able to complete the Performance Pass in time, is 45 far behind?

[covert valve]

I always host my lobbies to avoid certain people like that lmao

[covert valve]

You should be fine and if you dont complete it in time, all cosmetic rewards will be in the reward pool of loot crates and lost helmets

[covert valve]

Put that table back down!

[mossy hatch]

The season is planned to end around March or April, so you have time. Plus, if you are unable to complete it before the new season starts, any item you were unable to collect will be available to find in things like Lost Packs, Cargo Crates, or in some other yet undisclosed fashion

[pulsar spindle]

Thank you, I heard it was ending around February which scared me. Still gonna push to the triple digit tier though ha

[light notch]

NOT EVEN HERE!

┬─┬ ノ( ゜-゜ノ)

[obtuse peak]

Ok

[crystal plover]

[near dagger]

Best engineer weapons and builds?

[light notch]

what makes you personally have more fun, of course

theres always fatboy to pack a monster punch at the cost of ammo, of course

but then theres the safe bets

i personally usually use the bc with ammo overclock

cant remember the tier tree build tho

[near dagger]

Primary weapon?

[light notch]

shotgun with turret whip, and sentries with hawkeye. point at a big enemy, have the turrets shoot it, blast them for the dmg bonus

[lost lion]

Hi guys

[light notch]

hello there miner 👋

[obtuse peak]

For the miner (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

[light notch]

NO TABL

Only dystrum

[rustic quail]

The hell is this? There's a few around a larger one and it gave me a blue swirl thing around me for a bit after

[light notch]

50% defense for you allies and enemies while inside the area and 15sec after leaving

[rustic quail]

Huh

Thought it'd be an event or smthn

I hope it turns into something cool later on

Ooo just had an idea

Gonna post it in #suggestions

[raven ivy]

Need help completing unlocking haz 5 mission

[quaint zinc]

Nah, it’s been around since they added the two biomes last year, most likely gonna stay the same.

[rancid night]

I want to make sure I have this right just to understand how the pass works, we’re able to get the items from it at a later date, so nothing from it technically limited time unlockable, which means the only thing currently time limited unlockable are the time limited assignments like lunar new year

[narrow bear]

yes

[night oar]

I just got the game

[narrow bear]

from what I understand only the cosmetics and weapon frameworks will have a way of getting obtained after the pass ends

[narrow bear]

nice! how are you enjoying it?

[rancid night]

Cool 👍

[night oar]

I really like it but I can't figure out how to start a mission after the tutorial

[rustic quail]

I had a massive pipeline/rollercoaster but my build button didn't work then the game crashed

[narrow bear]

touch pad or the terminal with the planet hologram on it

[night oar]

Oh thanks

[narrow bear]

trying to go for that 2 minute long pipeline achievement?

[rustic quail]

Nah, just for fun

I didn't know there was one

I got tons two Enor Pearls as well, does loot stay if a mission crashes?

[narrow bear]

nope sadly

there should be a fail safe thingy for that like you'd get 50% of the materials you had collected or something

[quiet cliff]

It should do what happens when you get kicked

When you get kicked from a mission it gives you the failed rewards (aka 25% of the mission rewards earned up to that point)

So just count it as disconnect/kick

[narrow bear]

yea

my internet cut out at the end of a long escort mission

so I lost everything right up to when we were getting in the drop pod

so that was fun

[lost lion]

Btw are drg caves randomly generated?

[topaz trellis]

Yes with the exception of deep dives which have the same layout for 1 week

[lost lion]

Thanks for the info mr good miner lol

[balmy jewel]

Would anyone like a driller

[rustic quail]

WHY DID THEY WAKE UP THE DREADNOUGHT

[drifting sail]

Might have been fighting too close to cocoon, idk layout

[dense iron]

I hate when ppl go and pop 2 of those

[eager herald]

Or run off to start the other one while we’re setting up the room for the first

[drifting sail]

you mean you didnt want the achievement?

[eager herald]

I figure it’ll happen at some point without even having to try cause of this generous act of starting the dreadnought on the other side of the map so we didn’t have the trouble of going all the way over there until they go down and spam help

[hardy pine]

or they die, spam help, realize you’re fighting the other dreadnought and leave

[eager herald]

Leaving scales down the difficulty some at least in terms of ads

If there’s no realistic way my teammates can pick me up then I leave to make it easier for them but usually it’s cause of a leech or falling halfway down a pit in a bad place

Except for the escape pod but I’ll tell them to leave me and finish the mission

[drifting sail]

I love watching dwarves consecutively die trying to rescue leech victims. 🍻

or when a leech in the ceiling tries to pull you through obstacles, but keeps dropping you

found out you can save yourself on zip lines the other day, that was neat

[eager herald]

I watched a leech grab me horizontally it was so dumb

[drifting sail]

yes 😆

[gentle merlin]

I got caught by one of those last week, the 2nd dude and the 3rd one we’re coming te rescue me and the 2nd got caught. The 3rd one saw it but he tried to kill a enemy, than he got grabbed by it 🤦‍♂️

[eager herald]

After getting grabbed by a leech you can grab ziplines?

[drifting sail]

gank down the tunnel like wtf

[drifting sail]

yep, let it happen again to be sure what happened

assume it also would work for mactera grabber

[eager herald]

I’ll give that a try cause it sounds useful if they need a good escape route to get back to the team

And they’d be going downhill most likely so they get speed

[drifting sail]

not useful often, but good to file away for leech clusters or mactera swarms, I figure

[junior viper]

[old tundra]

https://discord.gg/TBxaXEC

[covert valve]

Lmao I had a driller double dip the supply pod when I was a gunner with less ammo.

[drifting sail]

if I see a supply pod in rando I usually top off then, rather than risk it

[rustic quail]

I hate when that happens, luckily it's quite uncommon as I'm the one who does it (only when no one does, bc Engi Turrets need a lot of ammo ok, so does the Zipline and Thunderhead)

Also when people just keep spawning in Supply Drops

[loud condor]

Hi guys, I'm looking for 3 players to compele the carpool trophy with. Anybody can help me out?

[raven token]

that could potentially be a kinda dick move since its smartest to resupply when you have used exactly 50% of your whole kit, so many players save their resupply slot until that

[surreal orchid]

As if someone just joined my game just as I was entering the drop pod after a 40 minute mission I done by myself

So lame

[raven token]

i'd do that too since i would assume you are struggling if you have spent 40 minutes on a mission, unless i know it was a particularly lenghty one

[raven token]

most people late join to help out

[surreal orchid]

Hmmm. I think people join late to get the xp. If I had seen him join before I finished I would have kicked him

[raven token]

you actually get a bigger reward yourself if you have more people on your team so why would you want to kick them

[raven token]

also you dont lose anything with them joining late

[surreal orchid]

I know you don’t lose anything. Just seems a scummy way to farm xp . But maybe he was trying to help like you said

Although I doubt

[raven token]

people absolutely do join for xp, but many join also just to help out

[surreal orchid]

If I’m joining a game I always sort the games by least amount of time never tried to join a game over 5 mins

[raven token]

the timers are also very misdirecting, they can be totally off

sometimes the timer can start from when you are chilling at the rig

also timezones mess up timers

etc

[mossy hatch]

Even if they're being scummy for XP, it's not worth getting upset about. Let silly people be silly, as long as they're not being problematic. Does it make any sense that they'd be playing a game they clearly don't want to play? No, it makes no sense. But as long as they're not being jerks it at least doesn't harm anyone

[raven token]

i dont know which haz you play on, but try joining a haz 4/5 Point Extraction which has gone on for +20 minutes and you will be greeted as the saviour angel ^^

it can be quite the rush, since the spawns get more frequent in PE the longer the mission goes on, so they probably be struggling and low on ammo+nitra

[surreal orchid]

Haha. I was only on haz 2 because it was an elite threat which I’d never tried before and didn’t really know what it was.

[quaint vine]

Is it a good idea to upgrade one character only due to time restraints?

I've only been buying/leveling the engineer.. playing other gnomes just to get the perk points

[mossy hatch]

What do you mean by time restraints?

[surreal orchid]

Gnomes

[quaint vine]

@mossy hatch I can't play alot

@surreal orchid gnomes dwarves elves they all little ppl

[surreal orchid]

Haha

[quaint vine]

Wait but in lord of the rings elves are tall?

Sorry I get confused with my mythical creatures

Lol sorry kinda drunk and I want to maximize my time lol

[mossy hatch]

Ah, gotcha. It's not bad to get someone promoted, but you don't need to rush it. You won't be able to do Deep Dives with any class that hasn't been promoted, but you'll be able to start earning Overclocks once you get at least one promoted

[surreal orchid]

I’ve done 184 missions. 181 have been with scout

[quaint vine]

Holy crap.. and u didn't level the others just for the perk points?

[surreal orchid]

Haha nah not yet

[quaint vine]

Kk!

[surreal orchid]

Plus if you don’t have a lot of time to play just play whichever you have more fun playing 🤷‍♂️

[mossy hatch]

^^^^ This exactly

You'll kinda constantly get new stuff/upgrades throughout the journey to the first promotion no matter if you're playing the same class or jumping around to whatever seems fun

So no matter which way you do things, it keeps giving

[quaint vine]

@mossy hatch nice! Thanks

I'm loving the engineer and just might rank him up.. it's a grind but nothing crazy

[mossy hatch]

Engineer is what I've played the most. I hesitate to say favorite, because every time I switch classes, I miss the one I was just playing, haha

[clever trail]

I've mostly played gunner and engi, but I'm currently trying to promote my driller

[elder swallow]

i used to not play engineer

but then i got the fat boy overclock

[clever trail]

I havent got any really good overclocks yet

Though I did get the salvo for the missle launcher

[soft sentinel]

Question about the Overclock matrix core listed in rewards for the Lunar Event

Overclocks cant be used until you've been promoted. will I just continuously have that until I promote?

[hot valve]

You keep any overclocks you accumulate I’m pretty sure

[soft sentinel]

Nice. Although I am level 23, so I should be promoting soon

[hot valve]

Yeah you should definitely keep them then

[silver helm]

Me and my buddy are new players. Looking for some others to play with. My PSN is juhhzeppi. We are older....made a Reddit post because this wouldn't open but I got it.

[robust patio]

Can you check conpleted assignments on the assignment board?

[hot valve]

I don’t think so, if you mean like previous assignments then no

[hot valve]

#lfg-playstation

[robust patio]

According to the wiki therea's a prestige assignment at rank 5 but i font even remember doing it

Like its a blackhole for that specifically

[hot valve]

A prestige assignment?

#lfg-playstation

[junior pond]

Yeah sorry

[hot valve]

@robust patio what did you have to do for the assignment

[robust patio]

Idk there's no more info

The wiki might be wrong

[hot valve]

Can you send me a link?

Cause I don’t remember doing one either

Unless it was for a pickaxe or somethng

[robust patio]

https://deeprockgalactic.fandom.com/wiki/Experience#Player_Rank

[hot valve]

Yep you had to dig deeper, it’s todo with the assignments that give armour/pickaxe stuff

@robust patio

[robust patio]

Ik

But i dont remember doing one at level 5

Do you?

[hot valve]

I’m pretty sure it’s the one that gives you the “Heavy Duty Fixer” helmet

[robust patio]

I'll check when I can

Thank you

[hot valve]

No problem

[clever trail]

Ahh just the usual wall phasing mule

[drifting sail]

Molly is a Driller's mule.

[covert valve]

Man this elite dive is rough
So far solo the best I can do is get to the core in mission 2 before stuff starts getting out of hand

Really wish I had the BC OC that just gave extra ammo
That gun is insane

[near dagger]

Is the breach cutter still the best weapon for engineer?

[covert valve]

As far as secondaries go, its hard to beat

[drifting sail]

Do Dwarves like beer? ofc yes

[rapid hawk]

I really like it but if you're tired of using it the pgl is still really good

[neon gorge]

breach cutter is more versatile then pgl, but pgl can be better at something more specialized. Pgl can be better at ranged aoe or single target dps

[lofty bolt]

Nuke is so good for cutting areas off or big damage on one 🕷big spooder

[gaunt turret]

Anyone on ?

[cerulean kiln]

is there anyway i can report a hacker?

[mossy hatch]

There isn't really anything set up for that specific for Deep Rock. And someone hacking their own progress doesn't really cause problems for anyone else, so there's not really anything critical to report. Unless you're encountering something else?

[cerulean kiln]

yeah its just their own progress its just annoying to see

level 2666

[mossy hatch]

Yeah, there's been quite a few mentions of it. The devs can't really do anything about it. The good this is, it doesn't change anything for anyone else. Just chalk it up to people being silly, and don't give it a second thought. It doesn't make sense to anyone why someone would still be playing a game they clearly don't want to play so much that they cheat so they don't have to, but people are dumb...

[cerulean kiln]

im pretty sure its just for the platinum on playstation

[mossy hatch]

If Sony has some reporting tools regarding that, you could go that route if you want, but I'm not sure what they have in place for stuff like that

And someone else getting trophies, legitimately or not, doesn't mess with anyone else, at least

[cerulean kiln]

god dam he has 116 platinums and overall trophies is 15605

[proud venture]

Hello 👋
I want earn car pool trophy
Who can help ?

[cerulean kiln]

sure

i dont have it yet either

[proud venture]

Ok send your id

[icy sage]

They should of just canned the ps4 version and it wouldn’t been issue. But everyone still crying for ps4 releases. Ps4 is the weak point in those save edits

[mossy hatch]

The save edits literally affect no one but the goofs that are doing it. And having a PS4 version means more people get to enjoy this game, which is objectively a good thing

[icy sage]

Say that to someone who got to legit 2600 ( on pc) and if they think some cheater rocking 2600 doesn’t mean anything

[mossy hatch]

Why would it mean anything? An illegitimate level doesn't invalidate a genuine level

Someone cheating their own score doesn't change the fact that someone else earned a score. All it does is make the cheater look silly

And in DRG, you don't get anything for any level over 100, so anything more than that is just an arbitrary score that only means as much as you let it mean. To me, it means you've played a lot of Deep Rock or you cheated, and I couldn't care less which was true if you are a team player and work with everyone to have a good time

[icy sage]

Then after 100 just let people click a level up button then. Without any effort

[mossy hatch]

Okay

Why would that bother you?

Modding exists on Steam, and while the devs have made an effort to not let you save to your main save file while using mods that completely break the game, I'm sure there's ways to mod things to level up quicker, and I'm sure people do that. I have the Steam version, and I could do that too, but it all seems rather silly to me.
I like the game as it is, and if I didn't, I don't need to click level up buttons or cheat, I'd just go play something I'd enjoy playing. That said, if it makes someone happy to click level up, or hack a save, have at it! It doesn't affect anyone else unless they let it affect them. I advise not letting the silly, inconsequential things other people do affect you

[icy sage]

Log into game see it full of cheaters hackers impossible stats etc shows disregard by dev of the game. That’s gonna turn so many people off just see the state of the game in that cheaters allowed. Whether internet numbers mean nothing or not it shows disregard for the game and puts people off when see it

[mossy hatch]

Ah, yes, continuing to develop and expand an already great game for free for years clearly shows a lot of disregard by the devs...

[ember lintel]

It’s a coop game. We’d rather spend the resources on making cool content than fighting a losing battle of people inflating their e-peen with cheats. That doesn’t mean we’re not keeping an eye on it, though.

[umbral pasture]

Anyone knows if there's a plan to address trophy glitches in the upcoming updates?

[mossy hatch]

Assuming you mean trophies that are not unlocking despite meeting the requirements, I'm sure those issues will be looked into. The more informative bug reports about that stuff, the better, so it can be more easily reproduced and fixed

[narrow bear]

well i did get the kill 2 dreads within 30 seconds between 2 matches

1 dread each 30 minute game lol

[icy sage]

But it does shed a bad light when new players see that and they will have those thoughts. It’s one reason I disable crossplay with PC players on games that allow it. Way too easy to cheat . And some games depend on how it’s data saved allow easy chests

K played both pc and ps and I like the console port feels smoother atleast on ps5 it does than the steam version

[umbral pasture]

Not my case, but "Performance Matters" (10 milestones) did not unlock, but "Management approves" (25 milestones) did. PS5 progress shows 0/10.

Another person is stuck on 9/10 for "Feeling Perky" etc. Seems like it affects all trophies and isn't specific.

[narrow bear]

just wait untill they fix the frame drops

the smoothness would be amazing

[icy sage]

I’ve never had any drops( atleast since I host most of my missions)

[mossy hatch]

I can only really advise that folks check out the #420195388675588096 channel, and try to give as much info as possible. The devs can only fix what they know about and are able to reproduce. They do read the channels when they can (as you can clearly see above), but it's easy for things to get lost in the channels compared to the bug reports

[tall lily]

Hey quick question can bosco revive you from fall damage?

[mossy hatch]

As long as you still have an available revive remaining, absolutely!

Bosco will get you back up no matter how silly or irresponsible the cause of death, provided there's some revives remaining

[tall lily]

Okay then im probably encountering a bug because the past 4 or so missions he just hasnt revived me😅 i even clipped the last one and noticed i still had all 3 my revives

[mossy hatch]

Huh... that's a fun one

[umbral pasture]

Did you press L1 to call him?

[mossy hatch]

Is the mission instantly failing after you go down?

[near dagger]

I have a question, does increasing the difficulty of the level increase the chance of having an event in it?

[thorny perch]

No

[soft sentinel]

On the flipside of that question.. does increasing difficulty increase the Performance Points per mission??

[cold sapphire]

it increases xp and money

[light notch]

It increases final reward multiplier, and xp is multiplied by it too. Since performance points are based on xp, I would say yes

[cold sapphire]

and the multiplier for minerals

[soft sentinel]

So I got extra screwed on a 2XP when a cave leech killed me, because my engineer teammate was afk..and when they returned, the same cave leech killed them resulting in mission failure

[light notch]

Happens

Did you warn them about the leech tho?

[soft sentinel]

[light notch]

It's always helpful to warn about those

[soft sentinel]

They didn't catch my "I got snatched! I'm dying!!... And I'm dead.. ugh.." comments even though they had their headset on and asked what happened as I explained exactly what happened

[light notch]

[soft sentinel]

Their headset is wireless. They heard what happened, unfortunate the leech grabbed themn but I said I was grabbed by the leech

I'm tier 22 trying to get that tier 99 helmet before it goes away

[lilac latch]

Heightened Senses 👍

[light notch]

On the performance pass?

[lilac latch]

Only if your struggling with them alot and don't have teammates on comms that run on their own

[lilac latch]

Yeah I'm assuming since the message said tier

[soft sentinel]

Mhm. I know that it will be available after, yet after it will b RNG if I get it or not

[light notch]

You got until march/April, dw

Also

Lvl 96 is where it's at

[lilac latch]

Can you still get that armor set that was given to players on the year 3 event or is it not coming back?

[light notch]

Loomt buge taunt gud stuff

[light notch]

Do you know the name of it? I don't remember that lol

Smooth brain

[lilac latch]

Let me look

[soft sentinel]

I dunno. I'm a PS4 greenbeard. I I just know I want that patrol helmet thing

[lilac latch]

I'm a Greenbeard also, started about a week ago

[soft sentinel]

Also if anyone can show the "gem studded head cap" so I can get a better idea of it that'd be cool, or if there's a video showing off all the goodies from the performance pass

[lilac latch]

Scale Brigade Armor set

[soft sentinel]

armor colours and all that

[lapis ruin]

FYI it won’t go away, but it will go into the larger RNG pool

[lilac latch]

And I think there was frameworks in it also

[soft sentinel]

Oh I know. But that RNG Pool is hefty with stuff, meaning it could take forever before I get the item I want.

I want it now

[light notch]

You'll get an armor assignment for that one

Lvl 100

[lilac latch]

Ok, looking forward to that, the set looks really cool

[soft sentinel]

I've just discovered the Corporate Marine helmet.. the tier 99 one is still one I want but.. if I can't get it Corporate Marine could be a good replacement

[lilac latch]

So I just saw a guy player lvl 10k and legend 3 on driller on playstation? Is that even feasible considering how long the games been out on playstation

[light notch]

Cheats

Largest player rank I recall hearing about is above 2k, and I think I heard someone was close to 3k

[soft sentinel]

How does one even cheat on console??

[lilac latch]

On playstation probably save wizard but they don't let people cheat in online games

[soft sentinel]

True

[lilac latch]

It's a save file editor

And why cheat in drg, the fun of it is going up not just instantly being there

[upper blade]

Cheaters in drg are just leaf lovers

Lowest of the low

then ye, get to dwarf level 25 (r e d level), do the assignment, and head to the memorial hall

remember while doing promotion assignments, you play as any other non level 25 dwarf so as not to waste any character leveling exp.

[heady sluice]

I could use some Deep Rock buddies on PlayStation, who’s down?

Ping me if you is :3

Wait no this isn’t the LFG sorry

[gloomy apex]

Ik this isn't the lfg channel
Butt
Im looking for good players that could help me do a edd

I'm level 41/prestige 3 scout

[odd pawn]

where all the noobs at?

besides me

[rustic dagger]

1st ever EDD Doretta had to go straight vertical at the start of course no way to put a zipline because too steep no way to defend himself AND Doretta at the same time

[lost lion]

Hi guys

[lilac latch]

Whole team got killed by a surprise detonator on haz 3 While we were full on hp and shield

[lost lion]

Lol

Btw i just took 1 hour to find 250 morkite....

[lilac latch]

Solo?

[lost lion]

Ye

[lilac latch]

Understandable

I don't really play solo, i might need to try it soon

[lost lion]

I got stuck for 15 minutes at 243 morkite

[sonic ore]

Hey guys, has anyone else experienced the trophy Performance Matters not popping? I just got Management Aproves so that trophy is definitely glitched for me

[weak kraken]

i dont have a playstation but i believe playstation players here would appreciate this news
https://twitter.com/discord/status/1488240777549402112?t=cBnQ-WU8XnC-i_-X8VQdvA&s=19

tldr they are slowly allowing players to link discord and psn accounts

so they can use discord on their playstation

https://discord.com/blog/playstation-discord-account-connection-linking-game-status

[neon gorge]

i wonder if this means playstation players will be able to join a union

[soft sentinel]

Breach cutter is just purple Line Gun from Dead Space

[weak kraken]

that would be if they fix unions in the first place

although i havent checked if they fixed that in a while

[neon gorge]

no it’s still very busted

[versed harness]

Hmm just tried to connect, but no PS option, guess they're testing specific areas first

[elder swallow]

Unions on playstation

[drifting sail]

Depends on the OC.

[soft sentinel]

Without an OC. Engi friend and I havent hit promotion level yet

[covert valve]

For people stuck on part 2 of elite dive
You can easily destroy the tip of the laser crystals from the drilldozer if you're playing gunner and using lead storm
That alone made the clear a lot more manageable for me

[novel storm]

You can use any of his primaries

[covert valve]

True but the auto cannon has a lot of spread compared to lead storm so hitting something as small as the tip from range reliably takes more time
I imagine the missiles are fine though

[novel storm]

The lead storm is the most reliable option yes

[soft sentinel]

I need to level gunner for future use but just can't be bothered. Scout just feels so much better in so many ways

[icy sage]

Driller can hand drill them too

[soft sentinel]

^ That's why the driller does when he joins on our missions

I stay near doretta, shooting and fixing when needed, engineer tosses out lure's if needed, and driller breaks the crystals. And if a detonator appears we all panic..

Then again, we aren't on deep dives

[quiet cliff]

I did scout solo on it

I just grapple to the tip and power attack

Like you're practicing the wall jump

[covert valve]

Yeah that will one shot it

[quiet cliff]

It just has to be broken horizontally all the way through in any way

Either at the bottom or tip

Driller can just go brrrr at the bottom

[covert valve]

Can you shoot tip with gunner secondary?

[cold sapphire]

dont think so

[lilac latch]

So I think I have a bug/glitch on my space rig, every time I load up drg or come out of my own mission a barrel falls into the launch bay and I get a voice line from mission control

[quiet cliff]

Everyone has it as far as I know... I'm not bothered by it anymore

But it doesn't stop you from earning the no kick barrel into launch bay for 10 missions achivement

[lilac latch]

I got that 1 yesterday

Just gets annoying after a failed mission when I'm already annoyed

[quiet cliff]

Just stop failing missions 4 head

[lilac latch]

Have had 10 bulk detonators spawn the past 10 missions

And I get 1 shot cause it surprises me and I can't run away

Also cryo doesn't do much to them

[twin ingot]

“If we could keep that scout alive that would be great” 👉👈 finally someone has notice me 🤣 edd still wacky though

[neon gorge]

only his primaries

[lilac latch]

Can you use text chat on ps4?

[twin ingot]

Only if you wanna plug a keyboard in for now I believe

[lilac latch]

Ok, thanks

[twin ingot]

❤️

[dusky thunder]

Hey! I’m trying here, because it’s difficult for me to find someone. Can anyone help me with Car pool trophy? Requires full team. I’m online every evening (most of them). UK time zone. I’m on PS5

[cold sapphire]

it helps with the explosion

but yea killing one with it is kinda bad

[old arrow]

It's just getting to that part. The first incline is just horrible

[covert valve]

Yup
It's honestly kinda bullshit
I've watched this same elite dive on pc and the dozer definitely doesn't go that steep

Easily the worst experience I've had in the game and I'm so happy to not have to do it anymore

[neon gorge]

driller has the hardest times with bulks in general

[old arrow]

I mean, you can carry me. Lmao. But jokes aside, I think I'm giving up edd for this week

[covert valve]

I don't even know if I could tbh
Unless everyone is really on their toes and is playing optimally, it feels so much worse in group than solo

[quaint zinc]

I also wanna point out the Engi’s PGL also works too.

[neon gorge]

if u find a rly good player, two man teams tend to be the easiest on edds

[neon gorge]

all of gunners primaries work on the tips

[old arrow]

Honestly. I just need to find better OCs. I think the only two decent ones I have are face melter and icespear (which I don't like)

[covert valve]

I did it with no OCs but I bet they would've helped

[neon gorge]

whats ur facemelter build

[covert valve]

Really wish I had neuro rounds on the thunderhead
Heard those are basically easy mode

Extremely ammo efficient too

[neon gorge]

those are pretty good for carrying

[old arrow]

Uhhh. I can't remember off of the top of my head but I think it's all damage

[neon gorge]

try 11331. If you get up close to enemies they'll take an additional 80 fire dmg every second from heat radiance, which means u can any grunt that comes anywhere near u real fast

[covert valve]

For real though guys, dont drive yourself crazy with this week's EDD
I don't really rage in games but this is probably the most annoyed I've been with a game in a while

[elder swallow]

why does doretta fly

[old arrow]

I just want the weapon OC. Don't really care about finishing edd

[old arrow]

Will try that in the morning, or when I get out of bed lmao. I just don't want to be a meat shield (dying all the time and keeping a handful of bugs on me)

[neon gorge]

if you do both the deep dives and the core hunts, you can get an additional weapon overclock per weak through forge mastery

just so u know for when the edd is easier

[covert valve]

Yeah thats all I wanted too lol
Didn't even care about what happened on mission 3
Just messed around

[old arrow]

Yeah, I can imagine. I just need to find a class and stick with it. Just need to get scout promoted then I've got some experience with them all. Might just stick to driller. It's what I started with first but gunner goes BRRRR

[covert valve]

Oh
If you do keep trying Kyanvi, this worked for me
Doing both eggs after I got the heart

[old arrow]

I usually drill ahead before we even start the driller

[covert valve]

Didn't even bother digging to the first room like many randos tend to do

I tried it but it didn't really benefit me at all tbh

[old arrow]

That's fair, it's mainly the lack of nitra which makes us do it

[covert valve]

I always go into mission 2 with enough for two drops and it's easy to get enough nitra for a third without much effort
So for first mission I only use one resupply

[old arrow]

What the heck. How? My driller ammo hungy

[covert valve]

Ah
Unfortunately I don't have any tips for that
I just use gunner with lead storm and the revolver

[old arrow]

Oh I have elephant rounds for revolver forgot about that OC

I think I'm not ready for the big boy Haz levels yet. Dont really have that many hours in DRG

[covert valve]

Oh me neither tbf
I'm only player level 45 or so

[old arrow]

I'm high 30s haha

[covert valve]

I think what really makes mission 2 so brutal is that the lethal modifier is active
So rough

Also, it seems pretty easy to have bad rng and a bulk detonator spawns after the dozer reaches the core

[old arrow]

Bulk detonator spawned behind the dozer when it was in the first room

[covert valve]

God that sucks

Another thing too that messed me up a lot are spitters spawning that like to stay way up in the shadows
So much damage
They obliterate you and melt the dozer so fast if you aren't instantly killing em

[old arrow]

Yeah, might just mess around farming mats tomorrow and hopefully get good OCs

[covert valve]

I wish I had more cores to farm for
Nothing left for me til weekly reset
I guess I could grind mats but eh

[old arrow]

I'm just a poor broke dwarf. I definitely need mats and credits. But I'm just to lazy to farm them 😂

[covert valve]

Yeah my money is pretty low tbh lol

[neon gorge]

Does the dozer drill into the egg on playstation?

[old arrow]

Not sure

[covert valve]

From the runs I saw, no

[lilac latch]

For my first forgery mastery matrix core I got fat boy

[covert valve]

They still had to get em normally

[neon gorge]

if it doesnt then you shudnt drill ahead, it just wastes time and ammo

[covert valve]

Nice dude
That was one of my first OCs too
Very fun

[neon gorge]

since theres lots of bulks and dreads, make sure ur scout uses ifgs on them. It makes killing them wayy easier

[old arrow]

Never had a scout. Was 2 gunners, driller and engi

[covert valve]

You know what sucks?
Having a cryo driller is so nice on mission 2 but they don't really do much on mission 1 against the dreads so you kinda have to pick up the slack for them

[neon gorge]

ifg slows bulks and dreads and makes them take 30% extra dmg from all sources for 15 seconds. Scout also has great burst dmg and helps the mission moving quickly

[neon gorge]

Wdym? cryo driller is insane for dreadnaughts

[covert valve]

You think so?
Seems like they waste a lot of ammo for only a 1 second freeze since dreads resist it

This is just what I noticed and felt myself though

[celest relic]

Theres a damage bonus while frozen.

[covert valve]

I know that but it only lasts a second on dreads

[old arrow]

I kind of agree with 2Bang. I usually play cryodriller and feel useless shainst dreads

[covert valve]

They break out of the freeze very fast

[neon gorge]

iv done this weeks edd twice as cryo driller

[celest relic]

If you time a TNT or axe throw it does plenty of damage. It also interrupts any attack pattern

[neon gorge]

You can use animation cancel to throw 2 or 3 axes during the freeze

[covert valve]

I'm not saying it won't work, it just doesn't seem at all like cryo drillers strong suit

[neon gorge]

nope it def is

[covert valve]

Yeah the axe cancel is very nice for sure

[neon gorge]

stack it with ifgs and other teammates firing, and u have godly dps

[old arrow]

People kinda shit on scout.

Might have to main scout now

[thorny stratus]

I’m down to help or join anyone

[neon gorge]

you notice a good scout for sure

[thorny stratus]

If anyone needs teammates

[elder swallow]

as a scout main

scout bad

[neon gorge]

makes the mission fast and his burst dmg is unmatched

[covert valve]

I've been wanting to try scout again
Got embedded dets and I heard they shred

[neon gorge]

literally cryo driller + axes + double blast of shotgun, is enough to do 1/3 of dread health

and this is no ocs

[old arrow]

I just need to find scout best primary for me. It aint the classic.mk2 is okay, haven't tried plasma carbine yet

[elder swallow]

the drak 25 feels good imo

[celest relic]

Carbine is solid

[neon gorge]

m1 classic is pretty amazing once you get the hang of it. Armor break lets you one tap grunts with focus shots to the body and blowthrough gives you the potential to kill 3 grunts with it

[old arrow]

Ugh. I want to be carried for mats. I hate doing work haha

I don't mind doing dds, but like.. I'm bad at deciding things on my own. I'm more of a "ill join this person and do what they want to do"

[neon gorge]

i think playstation has it tough in particular due to the lack of text chat and discord, which def helps when playing with ppl that arent confident carrying haz 5 missions

[old arrow]

That's true. I haven't tried a normal haz 5 yet. Not looking forward to it

[covert valve]

I saw someone writing in game a few days ago on ps. Don't know how they did it though.

[old arrow]

Prob plugged USB keyboard in

[neon gorge]

ye, which most ppl wont do

[old arrow]

I won't, cause I'm using my keyboard for my laptop as that keyboard isn't working ahha

[elder swallow]

i use m&k but no one ever reads chat for some reason

[neon gorge]

F

[tribal magnet]

Just plug in keyboard to ps and hit enter to pull up ingame chat box.

[covert valve]

Thx, pulling the in-game chat box is what I didn't know how to do.

[tribal magnet]

Yea no prob, took me a bit to figure it out.

[drifting sail]

Lootbug Lover was worth it.

[covert valve]

If you haven't linked your playstation account to your discord , that's a new thing today. I just linked mine :o

[cold sapphire]

yep, same

i had a bulk spawn on every stage

i did the EDD three times, in all of them i got 3 bulks

a bulk on the dozer part was actually demonic

[covert valve]

Yeah they were incredibly common for me and it was miserable
Usually right when I started the dozer or right when I was getting to the core

[pliant fable]

Can u use it on playstation? Or is it just linking the account?

[shell hill]

All it does atm is let ppl see what your playing

[cold sapphire]

yep

[neon gorge]

pray scout has ifgs

[cold sapphire]

they werent enough

idk how

but my mates kept running out of ammo

like

[drifting sail]

sticky flames ftw

[neon gorge]

bulk on elimination is basically a free kill

[cold sapphire]

i was using Lok 1 with damage and didnt run out

[cold sapphire]

nah he legit spawned at the worst times possible

[neon gorge]

that speaks more to their ammo management. You shud never be ammo starved on an edd

[cold sapphire]

round one was kinda rough on nitra but theres no way in hell i should be fine on ammo with lok 1

they should 100% have more than me

[pliant fable]

Ohh ok thanks

[cold sapphire]

i only have like 120ish bullets or smth

[neon gorge]

Ppl only say lok1 has an ammo problem when they don’t curve the bullets or don’t build it right. Like when they use smrt targeting and full lock dmg

[near dagger]

Does bosco also have the pot ol gold buff when i drink it?

[primal torrent]

Anyone having multiplayer connect issues on ps4. I keep trying to join a friend but it acts like it's going to let me join and then says "lost connection to server" yeah I'm sorry I would have tried but

[covert valve]

Tbh since the last update I haven't had a single disconnect error ever again
I wonder if you're having a nat type issue or something

[neon gorge]

no, only if you use a pickaxe on it

[dusty stump]

My only wish is that rockets with bosco weren't so awful on controller

[drifting sail]

They aren't? No harder than aiming anything else

[cerulean kiln]

That's a NAT type issue to fix it you will have to make your NAT type open it happened to me as well, to fix it just look it up because its different for most internet providers and modems

[primal torrent]

Thank you

[dusty stump]

L1+L2 is a whole thing for me at least

[cold sapphire]

lok 1 does have an ammo issue lmao

i use damage and not ammo bag

and besides, full lock damage is really good with the unstable OC

the one that increases weakpoint dmg on a full lock

[neon gorge]

i dont ever have ammo issues with exec and ecr

[cold sapphire]

youre gonna run into ammo struggles real fast tho

[neon gorge]

not rly

[cold sapphire]

if youre attacking everything you will

if youre only going for dangerous stuff then you wont

but yknow

i kinda had to kill a bulk by myself

[neon gorge]

between inferno, turrets, and plasma bursters i can handle grunts fine, i use exec on anything i want dead now

[cold sapphire]

ye

[neon gorge]

its all about using the weapons for what theyr good at

[cold sapphire]

just use spinning death or smth

casually delete everything small

[cold sapphire]

speaking of which

blowthrough is actually good on lok lmao

[neon gorge]

inferno lets you reach 40% extra dmg on lok

[cold sapphire]

ive had really good results with it

[cold sapphire]

yea ig

[neon gorge]

i dont wanna lose the 20-40% dmg buff

especially on exec

[cold sapphire]

fair

[cold sapphire]

that aint even that bad
for me its X and L1

my bosco bind is X

yes, its awful but the rest is amazing

[covert valve]

Wooo there it is
Another elite dive where I make it to stage 3
I don't know why I'm still trying
This shit is rough

[quaint zinc]

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting a different outcome each time.

[mossy hatch]

And the definition of Elite Deep Dive is "hard..."

[versed harness]

@covert valve once you get to stage 3 slow down, farm some nitra, set up a room or two, rich atmosphere gives you alot of extra survivability(assuming no one jumps off a cliff lol)

[covert valve]

Thanks for the tips
I'm solo btw so only I can screw it up lol

[versed harness]

Oh for sure slow down and get some nitra then, watch out for a few cave leeches

I think there were..3/4 in the two man I was in

[covert valve]

I couldn't believe the final stage had no negative modifiers and instead had a positive one when I first saw it earlier

Sadly I made a tiny mistake and brought my mp build instead of my solo
Have a useless first aid perk now lol

[versed harness]

Oof

Are you running engi?

[covert valve]

Gunner with carpet bomber thunderhead and brt for single target

[lusty patrol]

I do minigun with basically no overclock and magic neurotoxin

Works amazingly

[versed harness]

Gotcha, sounds solid, brt can be a beast

[quaint zinc]

Flight of the valkyries plays in the background

[neon gorge]

magic bullets is a hell of a drug

[lusty patrol]

Wasn’t it you who gave me the build

[neon gorge]

might have been

[lusty patrol]

Thanks if it was you, that thing is how i play

[covert valve]

Wooow
I did it
Beat the whole elite dive solo
My first one

[lusty patrol]

Nice

[neon gorge]

congrats

[covert valve]

Thank you!

[lusty patrol]

I still have to do this one

[quaint schooner]

Gratz!!!

[lusty patrol]

I hear it ducks

We’ll see about that tomorrow

[quaint schooner]

Any tips u can share, I posted my experience so far in #deep-dive-discussion

Been trying for so long to solo this week’s EDD

[neon gorge]

what class and build?

[quaint schooner]

Are u asking me or 2bang xd

[lusty patrol]

This

[neon gorge]

you

[lusty patrol]

Well never mind

[quaint schooner]

O I’ve been trying with ice storm cryo driller and bullet hell gunner

[lusty patrol]

Good thing I turn of pings on reply by instinct

[quaint schooner]

I don’t have much OC so my choices are limited

[neon gorge]

dam those are some interesting ocs

[lusty patrol]

How do you use bullet hell

[quaint schooner]

Ya, got super lucky so far

I just shoot at high health bugs, or anything close by if I’m in danger

[covert valve]

I'll tell you what I did over there if you have any questions
It's worth mentioning that I'm a total amateur so what I did might not be very good at all lol

[neon gorge]

bullet hell has very little ammo and worse dmg then bass minigun but has good stun potential and works well on swarmers

[lusty patrol]

I know that

[quaint schooner]

I’m even more amateur so any lessons u learned is probably helpful for me xd

[lusty patrol]

I was asking person number that one ☝️

[quaint schooner]

Yea I suck at aiming so I use bullet hell for swarm situations

[covert valve]

Also holy crap I got a really nice engi mod!
Lightweight Cases for the breach cutter
More ammo for that beast would be amazing!

[neon gorge]

the mod layout?

[lusty patrol]

Yes

[quaint schooner]

Nice!

[lusty patrol]

Did you know that bullet hell comes equipped with wall penetration

[quaint schooner]

I don’t have the mod layout off the top of my head and I’m done for the night so I don’t feel like launching the game to check sry :p

[quaint schooner]

Wat

[lusty patrol]

Is fine

[lusty patrol]

Yes

Very minor amounts

[neon gorge]

pretty sure all ricochet ocs do

[quaint schooner]

How does that work

[lusty patrol]

Homing being funky

[quaint schooner]

Like, if u shoot a thin wall it can bounce to the opposite side or

[lusty patrol]

Yeah

[quaint schooner]

Ahh cool

[neon gorge]

when it bounces off a bug or wall, the hitscan bypasses objects

[lusty patrol]

Not super useful, but cool fact

And potentially useful on the subuta homing (?)

[quaint schooner]

Is blowthrough rounds worth it on bullet hell, I heard good things about it so I’ve been using it.

Feels pretty ammo efficient

[neon gorge]

no it doesn’t, you at most get 3 bugs hit and thats only if you get lucky with the bounce

[quaint schooner]

Hmm I see. I’ll probably switch that out for something else then

[neon gorge]

stun is very good cc with bullet hell and AB decreases the damage fall off from hitting light armor

[quaint schooner]

Yea I’ve been meaning to take AB, saw some cool math on Reddit about how anti armor is almost always better than the alternative

The flat damage increase due to armor negation on first hit etc.

Tho CC with bullet hell sounds safer, might try that first for this EDD

[neon gorge]

no armor break is usually worse then the alternatives tbh. The only time it isn’t is if ur going to be doing body shots on grunts

[quaint schooner]

I suck at aiming so armor breaking is probably good for me generally

Like most of my shots are on body for grunts anyways, and not by choice

[neon gorge]

it’s def worthwhile to get use to aiming for the mouth with most weapons

[lost lion]

Hey guys

[neon gorge]

ello

[lost lion]

I had to fight a boss with 1 bullet remaining

Yesterday

[quaint schooner]

I’m new to controller aiming in general so it will probably be awhile before I’m anywhere good

[lost lion]

Just throw your controller at the enemies
Its infinite ammo

[lusty patrol]

I’m pretty sure someone did the caretaker with only a pickaxe

[lost lion]

Yeah ik

But im only level 5

[lusty patrol]

You just brought that to mind, not trying to downplay you

[quaint schooner]

That’s crazy, how did he even reach those weak points to begin with lol

[lusty patrol]

Platforms or grapple

Or ziplines

[quaint zinc]

Dude’s crazier than I am

[lusty patrol]

I think I was lurking for that conversation

Someone asked if it was possible

[quaint zinc]

And the most crazy I’ve done was tried fist fighting detonators

[lusty patrol]

Dude basicly said hold my beer and came back a half hour later and said job done

[lost lion]

mission acomplished

[quaint zinc]

I like it

[lost lion]

Lol

Anyways whats everyones fav class
Mine is gunner cuz... well.. minigun go brrrrr!

[quaint zinc]

Mine should go without saying but Scout, cause I like to boom and zoom or use my freeze flash class on the bugs.

[lost lion]

K

[lusty patrol]

My favorite class is dwarf

[lost lion]

Lol

[quaint zinc]

This guy achieved perfection

[lost lion]

All rounder

Lol

[lusty patrol]

They are all good

I like basically every weapon

[lost lion]

Yeah ive only played gunner lmao

[lusty patrol]

Except poop gun and m1000

May just need hipster for the latter

[surreal swan]

I'm still doing the first assignment, but so far I've liked Engineer. Love me some boomstick

[quaint zinc]

Yeah, M1000 kinda wonky

[lusty patrol]

It’s cool

And makes M1 noises

And fun

But problems

[quaint zinc]

I ironically have a loadout for Scout utilizing one but almost never touch it

[placid fable]

I'm looking for some randoms to play with

[lusty patrol]

#lfg-playstation

Or here

[lost lion]

Well i gtg guys bye
fazes out of existance

[ivory zodiac]

My account just got hard reset, u guys know is there anything I can do about this?

[abstract hinge]

hi do i keep my progress if im playing on ps5 from ps4?

[cerulean kiln]

you just dont

you have to restart

[ivory zodiac]

You talking to me or lulz

[abstract hinge]

i think u

[molten stag]

Same thing happened to me, I think it was from putting the playstation in rest mode and starting it up. I opened and closed the other night and tons of my progress wasn't counted.

[ivory zodiac]

Thats what happened to me I started up ps4 with an error message, immediately opened deep rock and it put me in the tutorial. I skipped it and now everything I had was gone

[abstract hinge]

bruh that sucks

how far along were u?

[ivory zodiac]

I had a level 20 gunner and a twice promoted engineer

Player level 27

[molten stag]

Oh fuck

[abstract hinge]

that’s like me. i thought my progress is online like in the cloud like gtav but nah its console saved

[molten stag]

I didn't lose everything, just days of progress

[ivory zodiac]

Everythinf gone bruh

[abstract hinge]

im player 41. all characters promoted once

maybe ask support?

maybe they can recover?

idk tbh

[ivory zodiac]

I went to the drg website and told them what happened in an email so we’ll see but I doubt they can do anything about it

Yeah Im assuming the saved data got corrupted somehow but Ive never had this happen with any other game

[normal swallow]

Always gotta make backup saves

[covert valve]

No they can't

[normal swallow]

Only way to recover is from a back up save, sorry bud

[cloud epoch]

Do you guys think cryo or the sludge pump is better for the driller?

[mystic reef]

They’re both good. Sludge IMO is a little better since friendly fire isn’t so annoying, but it’s also harder to hit flying targets with it (use secondary).

[cloud epoch]

Hmmm I think I’ll try that out

[mystic reef]

It’s nice, lots of versatile builds. None of the OCs are really bad

[cloud epoch]

Wait what does IMO mean

I searched it and nothing came up

[covert valve]

In my opinion

[keen harness]

Haven't played DRG in a while after a bad experience with point extraction missions

[covert valve]

What does an error cube do?

[quaint zinc]

Nothing special, just gives a decent amount of XP

[grave walrus]

I read some things about unions in DRG, is it possible to join them if playing on ps?

[icy sage]

I

No

[quaint zinc]

Unions are a Steam only thing. Don’t worry about not being in one, they’re unexciting, all you get is free random minerals each week.

[grave walrus]

Oh ok, thanks anyway!

[quaint zinc]

Your welcome

[white harbor]

what should I do when I meet a player ranting to the team entire time

I wasn't the host so I couldn't kick him

[quaint zinc]

Best option would be to just ignore them or mute them. Leaving is also a good option.

[white harbor]

how to mute?

[quaint zinc]

By tapping their profile then hitting the mute button

[white harbor]

ah! ic!! thank you
I just blocked him. Is there a reporting system in this game?

[quaint zinc]

Not that I know of.

[white harbor]

hmm
anyway, thank you👍

[quaint zinc]

You’re welcome

[covert valve]

We still need to get the "Options>Show network details" setting to be remembered when closing the game because I'm tired of adjusting this setting everytime I open this game :( I just want to see my ping dammit

[lost lion]

Hi guys

[covert valve]

Yoo

[lost lion]

Imma go single handedly wipe out half a caves population

[umbral pasture]

hey guys, is there a youtube channel which showcases good builds (setup) and but also gameplay? something like karl.gg but I wanna see what it looks like in action too

[grizzled junco]

We fight for rock and stone

[white harbor]

It seems that scout is disliked in Japanese community in terms of fighting.

so I'm using engineer in these days.

[covert valve]

well I promoted scout and now am maxing engi

wonder if I should go driller or gunner next

[lost lion]

ROCK AND STONE!!!

Lol

[covert valve]

we're rich!

[grizzled junco]

Wr are potatos

[gloomy apex]

Imo, yes, scout does not do much damage as gunner, BUT, the ability to run (grapple) away is very good for survivability

I think that scouts is not a bad class

AND I can lure a dreadnought away so I have, or a teammates, enough time to revive

[surreal orchid]

I’ve only played scout so far. Scout is love scout is life

[gloomy apex]

I tried the other classes, and I have to say, I like mobility over damage

[surreal orchid]

I agree

But I will probably start levelling up other dwarves soon

[gloomy apex]

Yea every class is really good

[bold pier]

Rock and Stone brothers! I am a new player and have a question: During my exploration, I've found this chest you need to find batteries for. After I've fixed it and opened it, I was able to claim some skin. Is there a way to see, after the game, what I've unlocked? I have managed to forget it and now I do not know what it was! 😦

[surreal orchid]

You’ll just have to look though the equipment terminal. Or the wardrobe.

It might be for a different dwarve than the one you are playing as though

[bold pier]

exactly, that could be also a skin for something I've not unlocked yet :/

[surreal orchid]

Yeah that’s happened to me a few times

[covert valve]

Was it a skin for a wepon or for a character

If it's the latter, you have to change your character to the specific guy you unlocked

[gloomy apex]

@bold pier you should have a red ! Icon somewhere

Either in the wardrobe or weapon arsenal

[surreal orchid]

If you haven’t unlocked the weapon I don’t think the icon appears though

[gloomy apex]

Idk

Yea I think it doesn't

[surreal orchid]

Nah it doesn’t, I’ve unlocked loads of random overclocks for weapons I haven’t unlocked so I can’t check what they were since you can’t click on the weapon

Saying that, I can check overclocks I’ve forged in the forge history. Don’t think there’s anything like that for skins though

[neon gorge]

scout has great burst damage, but mediocre crowd clear

[neon gorge]

you can get skins through cosmetic matrix cores

[gloomy apex]

@neon gorge exactly, scout is more to kite a swarm around while killing it piece by piece

That's how I do it

[neon gorge]

he also does really well against big targets, especially with ifgs

[gloomy apex]

ifgs?

[modest plank]

Hello

[gloomy apex]

I use cryo grenades for medium enemy's

[gloomy apex]

Rock and Stone

[surreal orchid]

Yeah. The guy further up was asking how to check skins he got from a cargo crate cos he can’t remember and he thinks it might be for a weapon he hasn’t unlocked yet

[modest plank]

Omg, here too?! Lol

[gloomy apex]

yes

[surreal orchid]

I use plasma gun with bouncy bullets and shotgun with special powder

[light notch]

just half? why settle for so little?

[surreal orchid]

And cryo grenade

[neon gorge]

bouncy bullets don’t get much use out of cryo because you take the spash dmg upgrade with it, which decreases ur direct dmg

[woeful marsh]

Hello fellow rock and stone users

How are you all today?

[gloomy apex]

miserable could be better

[woeful marsh]

Ah

I know that feeling

[lost lion]

Yeah ended up wipeing out the entire caves population

[light notch]

https://tenor.com/view/more-kylo-ren-adam-driver-screaming-star-wars-gif-17734637

[lost lion]

Yeah im traveling to a new cave tk eliminate more

[grizzled junco]

scoutmini

[woeful marsh]

Miniscout

[fathom solar]

LFDeep Dive this morning stage 3

[drifting sail]

#lfg-playstation helps

[lost lion]

Well... i ended up killing the caretaker first try with almost no ammo to begin with...

Anyways hello

Wasnt responding to anyone btw...

[compact crypt]

honestly, this team deserves the WORLD!

[cerulean kiln]

we need 1 more person for car pool trophy anyone down?

[light notch]

your best bet would be #lfg-playstation

[undone siren]

are trophies still bugged or can the trophy hunting commence?

[subtle shard]

Hello

[gilded atlas]

Hey everyone my progress just got reset and it's gone now

anyone know what to do?

[subtle shard]

They added a feature to role back your save

In the recent update I believe

[gilded atlas]

how do i do that?

[subtle shard]

It should tell you how in the patch notes let me check

[gilded atlas]

is it in the ingame patch notes?

did you find anything?

[surreal orchid]

Is the only way to get blank matrix cores from deep dives and weekly assignment?

[hidden leaf]

afaik yes, plus the chinese new year event for this week.

[surreal orchid]

Ok thanks

[umbral pasture]

those are infused?

[hidden leaf]

I thought it gave 1 if each like a weekly? Idr I did it like right when it went live.

[umbral pasture]

I'm still noob in this game though. But to my understanding, these cores contain predefined overclock that cannot be changed. @hidden leaf

[cold sapphire]

ye

[lost lion]

Heeello guys, players, dwarves or whatever

[soft sentinel]

I got a matrix core for the driller from the Lunar event. Been playing scout for every mission, except 2 yet almost every time we open a thing on a mission I get cosmetics for other characters. Got more salt in me than the salt pits

[fast terrace]

i wish you could clear notifications without having to go through each miner and seeing whats new.

[rare summit]

Anybody tryna link?

[neon gorge]

#lfg-playstation

[rare summit]

Oh

[umbral pasture]

I have 2 for scout and it's the only class I haven't played so far. 🤔

[carmine igloo]

I played as engineer at first and got loads for driller. It seems to balance out later on

[velvet ingot]

What are alien artefacts and how to find them?

[thin halo]

It’s good to remember there are no duplicates, so when you get a core you don’t want, at least it’s out of the pool and you’re closer to getting the ones you DO want

[velvet ingot]

?

[neon gorge]

i have literally no clue wut those are

[gilded atlas]

does anyone know how to load older saves in game?

my progress was reset somehow

[covert valve]

It’s an “error cube” that has no use as of now. Has a ~4% spawn rate. It’ll look like a black rubiks cube, and the area around is surrounded by little glowing gray spikes and it’ll have a purple aura.

[white coral]

https://twitter.com/IGN/status/1488278674361229313 Looks like it'll be time to bring the unions to at least PlayStation soon 😄

[versed harness]

@soft sentinel the events in missions offer 3 class choices, the top choice, which is red will always be a cosmetic, the two side choices, which are blue, will always be weapon overclocks

Or did you mean backpacks/cargo lol

[soft sentinel]

yes.

Backpacks and cargo, for as many we've successfully looted I've only gotten one thing for Scout

[mossy hatch]

I wouldn't expect it anytime soon. The PlayStation and Discord account linking is only to allow Discord to show what PlayStation game you're currently playing as your status. From what I saw, it won't be doing any more than that, at least for now. Xbox has had the same thing for a good while now, and we still don't have Unions.
That said, it's not solely dependent upon the consoles providing more Discord support. The devs have said that Unions are sort of a prototype implementation that they'd like to be able to revisit at some point in the future. I wouldn't expect Unions to make it to console versions until they actually get to work more on the whole Unions feature, and there's no telling if or when that would be able to happen.
Lastly, we're not really missing much by not having Unions. They don't have any game mechanics tied to them; they're merely a few bonus credits and minerals every now and again

[white coral]

True.

[soft sentinel]

OC core, cosmetic or both?? That actually makes it less chaotic tbh

[thin halo]

Both I think

[covert valve]

@old arrow I think you were asleep or busy when I posted about it but I cleared the whole EDD solo
Shit was crazy

[soft sentinel]

what is this Unions people keep mentioning

[old arrow]

DUDE/DUDETTE, that's nuts but good job!

[covert valve]

Thanks! I wish I remembered to clip it!
My friend heard how annoyed people were with it this week and he wanted me to show him my run

[old arrow]

its too annoying, esp stage 2

[covert valve]

I can safely say that the only real issue with the whole EDD is stage 2

1 is nothing and 3 is like a victory lap

[old arrow]

So, what you're saying is. You can ez carry 😂

[mossy hatch]

An extremely minor feature that is only available on the Steam version. It allows you to choose to join one of three groups of players, and if you and the other players in your group reach certain milestones (like kill thousands of Brood Nexuses, etc.) in a set period of time you all get a small bonus of credits or minerals. It doesn't change or add anything to the gameplay in any way; the most interesting part about it is your Discord name changes in this server to reflect which group you choose to join, but even that doesn't actually do anything other than add a little badge next to your name. The devs have said they'd like to revisit the idea and maybe make it into something more at some point in the future, if possible

[old arrow]

That sounds pretty fun. I would like a huge community challenge kinda thing

[soft sentinel]

Ahh..

[mossy hatch]

It's way less fun than it sounds. There's not really any coordinating of anything, and there's often enough folks playing that all it really winds up being is some free minerals and credits if you remembered to join a Union during the enrollment period

[robust patio]

Just found out about the 2nd screen app

Does it work for typing on deep rock?

[old arrow]

@covert valve damn guess no carry 😂

[soft sentinel]

I'm not even sure if console has the chat option

[robust patio]

I've seen people type

Unless this game has crossplay already

[covert valve]

Can only type if you have a keyboard plugged in

[old arrow]

It does, but you have to plug in a keyboard

[mossy hatch]

You can plug in a USB keyboard to access text chat

[light notch]

theres typing for every build, you just have to plug a keyboard

[robust patio]

So the 2nd screen app doesnt work?

[light notch]

nope lol

[covert valve]

I heard people say it works

[soft sentinel]

So if I had the controller keyboard attachment I could use it?

[robust patio]

I'll try it later then

[robust patio]

Theoretically

[light notch]

you can try

[covert valve]

I dunno your timezone Kyanvi but we could try a duo if you wanted

[balmy jewel]

Need some help with a mission

[mossy hatch]

Just a heads up, and by no means am I saying this to discourage you from trying, but I find duo's to be harder than solo's and trio's

[mossy hatch]

Might want to check in the #lfg-playstation channel

[covert valve]

Really?
I figured it wouldn't be as bad since 2 player scaling and the extra ammo
Damn

[mossy hatch]

When it gets bad is when one person goes down

The person who is up then has most of the aggro while trying to revive the other player

And with the enemy scaling up for two people, but your firepower cut in half, it can get overwhelming quickly

With a trio, one person can try to rescue a downed teammate while one pulls aggro or at least provides some support

And your firepower drops to 2/3 instead of 1/2

And even if 2 go down, as long as they're not hard to get to and they're not right on top of each other, you can get enough distance between bugs and yourself to grab one teammate and then the other

[covert valve]

Yeah I didn't think about the firepower cut actually

[mossy hatch]

There's been weeks where my friend and I have tried 5 or 6 times to finish an EDD just the two of us, and fail over and over from getting overwhelmed. And then once a third friend is able to join we finish it in one go in record time because we've already scouted out the dang thing a half dozen times. Three people makes it suddenly feel like easy mode

[remote agate]

Just finished up the performance pass, easy 500 credits from here on

[drifting sail]

Are you some kinda Lootbug Lover?

[surreal orchid]

[old arrow]

I'm GMT

[covert valve]

Ah damn I guess our time zones will probably be an issue most of the time outside of the weekend

[old arrow]

Hmmm.. Maybe, but maybe not. There will prob be times my sleep pattern gets screwed up

[covert valve]

Ah okay
I'm CST, so 6 hours behind you

I actually have a friend in that timezone and our connection seems to be fine, so if you and I ever get to play there shouldn't be an issue at least

[neon gorge]

i’d say 2 player is the easiest the game gets on haz 5 tbh

iv carried a lot of ppl on haz 5 duo cus the game feels like solo

[golden mirage]

So there’s this barrel by the tool boxes that keeps falling off into the forcefield anyone know when that will be fixed? (Ping me for reply)

[plain plinth]

Hey guys, is there any way to check what resources your team have deposited without having to deposit something yourself?

[mossy hatch]

Use the laser pointer. It'll pop up the display in the top right, same as depositing something

[plain plinth]

Ooh I'm a derp, hadn't noticed it shows up! Thanks

[mossy hatch]

You're welcome. It's totally easy to miss, since you're usually focused on where you're pointing the laser

[old arrow]

Man. I'm getting spit on with no bismor

[covert valve]

I'm ALWAYS low on magnite and pearls now
Actually, I have 0 of both lol
I really need to grind some

[split skiff]

@covert valve that’s sucks :/

[covert valve]

I had a bunch but I went through a ton of money and resources trying different builds for the EDD this week

Oh wait
I remember now
I crafted a ton of OCs and cosmetics at the forge too
That was very costly

[split skiff]

@covert valve well at least everything you craft at your forge goes towards your overall forge level

[covert valve]

Yeah I'll be getting an OC from that when the weeklies reset so that'll be nice

[split skiff]

@covert valve me too :). Something to look forward too.

[old arrow]

I'm too poor to even do that atm

aww heck yeah. Bismor place is open noww

[dusty stump]

I need so much bismor

[old arrow]

Wanna farm if you on PS?

[dusty stump]

Can't at the moment unfortunately, thanks though

[old arrow]

No worries :)

[drifting sail]

It's my lowest too. Somehow I have huge amounts of Jadiz though...

[old arrow]

oh dear. haz 3 with greenbeards. Lets see how this goes

[mossy hatch]

Bismor used to be so plentiful. Now it's a lot harder to come by. Remember to tell your Bismor you love it and cherish it

[drifting sail]

need bismoar

[thin halo]

Bismoar for the bisboar

[old arrow]

It's dumb. In a bismor dense zone. Nothing

Lets go. level 5302 on PS, what a cheat. Ugh

(not me btw)

[weary willow]

Anyone get their save reverted on PlayStation.... Promoted over night , get back on today promotion gone back to level 22

[drifting sail]

#bug-discussion knows most, but basically be sure to manually back up to the cloud when you finish playing to be safe.

Low oxygen Point Extraction... Scout to live.

[old arrow]

lets go

[ornate forge]

Rock and stone chaval

[old arrow]

huge 26 bismor from a bismor dense zone

[drifting sail]

dont spend it all in one place there

[old arrow]

it's dumb. pls buff bismor

[drifting sail]

run more bismor levels
