I just got the game a few days ago after seeing this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NM2i6FEz2U&t=3sI figured it'd be a bit much to jump into swarms that size right away without having stuff unlocked, and am having a lot of fun with vanilla anyways. Are there any verified mods I could download anyways that would be good to have?

Nest somewhere else, creep!
>>2335783Mint is a third party mod manager that's imo way better than the official mod.io integration.The original fork forces a MODDED tag on your lobby name, so someone made a fork (notag) that removes that feature.Some see that as a problem since you can use approved and even sandbox mods without any indication, but if you're just using verified clientside mods who cares?I do like hosting with Von's rooms, though. It's verified but no problems with mint since clients don't need to download it too.
>>2335859Von's is approved, rather.
Speaking of mods, does anybody know how to increase the weapon viewmodel like in TF2? The one mod on mod.io is broken.
>>2335779The singular thing I'd change about pitjaws is their seemingly massive health pool, grabby semi-mobile stationaries that can be hard to see and chunk you for 80% health should not be tanky too. Rather decrease their health and flee threshold so instead of them being tanky and sitting there they instead take a lot less to kill but also relocate much faster. More paranoia that way.

Is there a glitch with the Bone Collector going on? I found one in a mission just now, and every time I aggroed it it would play its little digging animation and teleport somewhere else in the map, rather than run away somewhere and make the little tunnel.

>>2354157Could have been, but honestly can't remember.

>>2355109The spread felt perfect before they removed two bomblets instead of just tuning the damage because it was "too strong."
>>2355124you're confusing it with cluster bombs, my dudeyeah I also stopped using it when they nerfed it from 9 to 7 bomblets, feels really bad
>>2355146Oh, whoops. I rarely use either of them and that happens frequently.
Cluster Charges still feels good to me, love using it on Doretta especially if you get a flying rocks phase

so is armor break bugged for area damage still or not?
>>2367473Apparently not a bug.No, still no clue how armor strip Plascutter gets to do its thing when armor break AoE doesn't.
>>2364605Yeah, that happens rather often on small map sizes.Seems there are a limited number of spots they can go. And they will re-use spots that have already been cleared.

>>2371644Easily. The build's weakness is that there are some situations where MLS is awkward.And more importantly, some people think the MLS playstyle isn't fun.

>>2374716>Oneshotting most heavy targets using the most basic levels of object permanencevs>uhhhh slightly more effective necrothermal?ok
>>2373147I know magic bullets mightn't be the best OC for bulldog, but I can't deny I feel cool as hell shooting a wall/roof near a praetorian or an oppressor and hitting the weakpoint. Makes me feel like revolver ocelot.
>>2375678Revolver Ocelot
>>2374028They're very similar, but also have a couple key differences:Mortar rounds are much better against armored targets, specifically praets and guards. They also do better against very high hp low armor ones like stationaries. Mortar rounds also have (potentially) much better ammo economy against trash, assuming all your shots land. However mortar rounds have very limited range and accuracy, do a lot of self/friendly fire damage, and are weak against mactera.Carpet bomber has fantastic trash dps when it gets going, has no issues with range or accuracy (compared to MR) and is dead easy to use. It does however struggle a lot against praets and guards.I keep a separate dedicated build slot for both, and often find myself missing the other when I bring one of them to a mission.
>>2373147Decent tier list
>>2375586Yeah, they're both decent options. Not the best but not bad either.

>>2378071There is a warning, they don't attack immediately after spawning.
>>2378493It turns out that they attack immediately after spawning, if you are swinging a pickaxe at a mineral deposit that you started mining before it spawned
>Marked for Death + Trifork Time to hunt some Dreadnoughts
>>2378504>swinging enemies and surprised they strike backIssue of skill.
Just played DRG Survivor for the first time and I am baffled. This game is everything Rogue Core wants to be. It succeeds in every way that RC fails. Upgrades lean lower tier but more frequent with rares feeling good to roll into and actual luck influence that can stack, single player, no braindead teams and people in line before you stealing all the good upgrades, genuine progression and fully realized original gameplay built on the DRG foundation. I am convinced that if Rogue Core was a top-down Alien Swarm style game like this with class-based solo loot options it would fire on all cylinders. I wish the team looked at this game more for inspiration.

>>2385834>>2386971Fragmentation Missiles, you can just pick faster missiles and rate of fire with the tier 2 and 3 mods
>>2385834It's a tradeoff. With OFM you can easily take T3A since 4 RoF is enough. Which sort of offsets having to take T1C.Frag missiles can take either T1 but is basically forced into T3B.You'll always be taking T2A btw since armor break doesn't work on AoE.

>>2388205I'm a pretty late joiner to the part and while I still love the game, I noticed two big problems about DRG that for me would not put it over L4D1 (which I also have a nostalgia bias towards so):>Too much enemy varietyI consider myself a Hazard 5 enjoyer and maybe this is a scrub opinion but I do dislike that at times the game director just decides to screw you over with the enemy spawn. I know that there are different types of spawning and the "disruptor" classes can be real fucking annoying to deal with especially if the game keeps sending them over and over.>OverclocksLove them too but there are just so many of them that being restricted to random events and roulettes can definitely suck the air out of you collecting them. Granted, they aren't really required to play but it boggles me that there's no "daily overclock deal/market" on the space right where you could just consume your empty matrix core and pay a decent amount to buy one OC that is currently on sale that day.
Nice.

>>2394763The gunner is dead
Wanted to do a quick mission to finish my season challenge so I picked up a Salt Pit Mining on both danger and length 1. Of course that means for the game to immediately spawn Betsy and Nemesis out of its ass and give us exactly not enough nitra for a single resupply between the first two big caves. Fuck you too, Mission Control!
>>2396849The danger was both immediate and short, though, no?
>>2396855Not really, it was first a Betsy which was manageable but still ate two of my shields because it was literally cockblocking us through the first cave and it was just me and a Scout.Nemesis instead spawncamped us on our way to the entrance of the second cave and by that point I was already out of ammo because of a bone collector and an another event.
>>2396889Bad Luck. Next time use the entry tunnel to chokepoint the scrabs with your grenades, though that may not help if your build is shit at killing nem.
>>2396899Scrabs weren't really a problem however it was still a tax on our team's ammo economy. At the very least I had the satisfaction to see the Nemesis death before another random swarm got me and my other two teammates.
>>2388205scrabs and pitjaws have turned out to be real stinkerswhat I like the most about this game is the terraforming with driller to get a flat usable fighting area and creating chokepoints with repellent additive plats. IFG shields and sticky flames to a lesser extentteamplay and being close to your teammates/holding different angles and trusting someone has your back is much more effective and fun IMO but as you said the vanilla difficulties at and below haz5 2x Bugs are casual enough that it's not required.
>>2397719Yeah I hated rivals when they were introduced (still do to an extent) but at least Shredders are made of glass. Scrabs are way too tough to be a flying swarm enemy. It's clear they were balanced around haz 3 exclusively. I just hate them a little less because they're not nearly as obnoxious as pitjaws are.
>>2399011>flying swarm enemyTry flying grunt enemy and you'll adjust better, especially since that's literally their spawnpool (after bugfixes- release they were uncapped for some reason).Get something with a weakpoint mod and they fold like playing cards, it's like 3x- fire is also ludicrously effective.The grounded form is ass though because the wings are for some godforsaken reason Heavy Armor, and spreader-type that's flagged to not let Armor Break Mod weapons blow-through on the plate-breaking shot.Pitjaws are however ass and need some serious reworking in timing and audio with cave leeches as the baseline. Spawnrates on their warning need unfucked still.
>>2399209Hazlets in the thread will say "git gud" but pitjaws really are absolute bullshit. You can hear their attack audio, snap to them and put a full fucking into their face while they're still technically in the ground, but because you triggered their attack animation it cancels out your shot and you still get grabbed so even if you actually tap them before they snatch you you'll still get fucked because they programmed several frames of invincibility for them after they start their grab routine. To say nothing of them silently warping in at your feet with no sound or burrowing animation like older spawning bugs get. Just lazy as fuck enemy design and coding all around. It's a shame because ossuary is actually a decent biome in all other regards, but having to deal with jaws and scrabs makes it the worse by far.
Yeah, scrabs are totally fine to me. Just like another anon said above, wait until they fly up to your face with their weakpoints exposed and they go down like butter. The walking forms have annoying armor but they're pretty slow so just ignore them until they start flying again.Fuck pitjaws, though. Always (another reminder that cave leeches have a base health pool of 100 meanwhile for pitjaws is like 500+, absolute madness)
>>2399476Skill issue. Just don't shoot pitjaws when in range and you won't get grabbed.
>>2399715>OH YEAH?!? *hops into pitjaw and shoot half a clip in the process*>DEVS FIX!!!!

Barrage Infector projectile bug?
>>2378731>Rogue Core is somehow even worse than DRG Survivorincredibly grim
>>2412254Same anon. Rogue Core has problems that are immediately apparent when you play Survivors. Luck and agency are not rolled into one in Rogue Core. You are at the mercy of your pick order on top of luck. Rerolls. Why can you not reroll in Rogue Core? Character progression feels more impactful. Survivor unlocks other starting stats for dwarves when you kick ass. Rogue Core gets worse DRG perks. You know, perks from DRG? Remember how good those are? That's all you get. Rogue Core's current (and likely final) patch for playtesting is focused on polishing rather than gameplay. Currently I can wholeheartedly say that Rogue Core did not need to be its own game.>B-but DRG's base code was too hard!This game is almost entirely made of reused DRG code. Most of the bug fix logs reflect this. The only reason I can see for why this couldn't be added to the base game is the additional classes. Rogue Core still plays like DRG but the inclusion of the timer and not having a loadout at the start of a dive are at odds with what the game is trying to do right now. It feels like someone slapped the Point Extraction timer on a regular Morkite mission and called it a day with no actual thought as to what making a build and executing a plan requires in a game like this when you're playing with 3 other retards.Reddit spacing for tl;dr. Rogue Core is leaps and bounds behind DRG and has not fully committed to being a roguelite.

>>2415851Rockpox is eternal, I'm afaraid.
>>2416091This. Also, taking the reduced incoming damage on top fire rate synergizes very nicely with the fire rate growth speed which means it procs at only 2 shots fired and prevents a lot of self damage from splash.

>>2418133>When should I be using my axes as Driller?I honestly use them as burst damage against any immediate threat like even if a slasher is about to attack my unguarded ass. They're also pretty nifty against Mactera and Infectors.
>>2418133Axes have an AoE component. If you have a bunch of them, you can just chunk a swarm or two that decided to jump you while reloading.Still better for single-target, so start whacking Guards with them. Wardens too.
I miss when axes stuck in objects.
>>2418133They oneshot mactera and trijaws, and do a lot to brundles. That is, if you get good enough at hitting with them.
>>2419980You could use them as stepladders to reach higher. But munchkins learnt that you could use them to create godspot at will by blowing the terrain around them, so devs removed the feature.
Reddit-adjacent DRG fans when the dwarves say something that isn't quirky reddit wholesome chungus shit: WEEEEH WEEEEEH UWAAAAAAAAAAAH WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH AWWAAAAAAAH WAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHMe: AHYAHYAHYAHYAHYAHYAHYAHYA AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO HUHHUHHUHHUHHUHHUHHUHHUHHUHHUHHUHVEGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~!

Everyone's dwarf looks stupid except for mine.
>>2428045Wrong, look at how cool my Engies look.
>>2428071My engis are the best.
>>2393744>>2393988Fuck, now it's doing it to me.
>>2428326Just buy every DLC pack and it goes away :^)
Spoopy...The boss battle is pretty cancer tho, especially with randos. Had a scale bramble on top of the corestone spawning its nodes inside corestone terrain, so it was extra hard to kill.
somehow they made the core spawns even more cancerous, amazing
When you thought you're finally free of Rockpox shit and then the Core Spawn cachinnates vociferously at you
>>2431651It's like they took Corestone and thought "hmm, how could we make it more like rockpox..."
>>2431685I never understood the hate for rockpox, infected enemies offer are a million times better than that shit forcing you to hang like a retard or get rekt in seconds
This shit is so ass lmao
>Pitjaws>But they're corespawn so they keep getting spawned into the map during corestone events>also they're ebonite infected so you have to melee them to kill them>also the rivals have attached repulsion turrets to them
why do new these new MC voicelines sound so bad
Give me a quick rundown on this new assignment
>>2431932Unironically might be AI.
>>2432079core stone event but spawns appear in the level even before you start it. you have to break not one but 3 randomly spawning pillars to attack it. unironically the hardest thing in the game period (and pure cancer imo, huge nitra dump)
>>2432231Thanks, I hate it. Easy skip for me unless they nerf it next week.
>>2432234I'll say, I think it's worth trying because it really forces you to play at your top performance. That said, if the team sucks don't even bother with it.Right now the only objective issue it has imo (other than core spawns being broken as fuck but that's been the case since day 1) it's map generation, a couple times the core was located in horrible spots. again, you can enjoy the challenge for a change. my real question is how they even designed this event as it would be basically unwinnable without a good gunner for ziplines and shields
>>2432262I play Gunnah, I just have zero interest in doing Core Stone shit but times three and with randosPlus you just get pickaxe parts
>>2425636Not that anon, the voicelines shouldn't even be so bad that they need to be disabled. They really are embarrassingly bad, akin to american millennial humour despite the devs being Danes.
>>2432293They always have been. Mute them or don't but please god, spare me more of this extremely solvable whining
>AIN'T NO MORE BREEDIN' FOR THIS MOTAHI always love how mean spirited this one line is
Reminder that when they rebalance the event you get to gloat how you beat it on hard mode.
>>2433031>he thinks they'll rebalance their Super Original Event when they didn't even nerf or fix the original incarnation of it
Horsie scunt and his pet Loot Bug>>2432425And I love how it's not even some quirky reddit wholesome chungus shit
>>2433042They fixed the shield glitch exploit.
Why does the rocket launcher feel like such shit to use? Normally DRG guns are pretty satisfying but I would legitimately rather use the Subata over this thing. It feels like a stale roman candle. Rocket Barrage makes it pretty nice but it does fuckall for damage and eats through ammo like nothing else.
>>2433434Directable, not Direct, damage. Try Plasma Burster, they fixed some of the terrain-impact problems it had.Also has decent AoE in general.
Best secondary build to pair with AV Plasma Carbine?
>>24335734a, 4b, or 4c?
>f*male dwarves put front and centerit's so over
>>2433734Those nu-dwarves unironically are so auraless and sauceless compared to DRG
>>2433573Probably cryo bolt crossbow if you also equip Conductive Thermals too.
>>2433434Because the Hurricane is not for direct damage, it's for crowd control. Use Minelayer or Cluster Charges, if you want to do big single targer damage then equip the plasma missiles OC like the other anon said
>>2433883I'm talking about Plasma Carbine with Aggressive Venting (hence AV)
>core spawned in tiny room>can barely even get into the room because there's so many crevices and spikes generated by the core stone asset>twice as hard with core spawn and bugs attacking while we're just trying to reach the stone to start the fucking thing>instantly overwhelmed because there's no room for zip cheese and spawn are way overtuned enemies>finally get through one of the stages>the next tower generates through the wall in a completely different cavernTotal dogshit. This game is getting worse with every fucking update.
>>2433906>with Aggressive Venting (hence AV)I'm fucking retarded, my bad. If you're using AV then Cryo Minlets Zhukov sound fun.>Freeze grunts with your cryo minlets>Overheat your Carbine in the middle of them>Big temp shock damage for free
>>2382438Well, the dwarves do complain about having to excavate the Resinite MassHere's a rare moment of Scunt bitching about digging out the Resinite Mass>"This sure would go a lot faster if I wasn't doing all the work"
>>2434241ThanksI'm currently running that
Time to move on to Part 2
>>2428326same wtf man>>2433434because you're bad, hurricane is great.

>>2436502>didn't the music guy also left the team?Yeah, quite a while ago.
wait, did cluster charges get un-nerfed? >cluster amount 9what the fuck

nobody is joining my pub lobby ACK!
>>2450191>switch to haz 4 instead of 5>people join instantlydo people really play on boring mode only now
>>2450233My server name isn't tryhard like GREYBEARDS ONLY, LEVEL 200+ but I still get guys joining my Haz 5 lobbies and asking me to switch to 4. Mad weird, why even bother joining others instead of hosting your own Haz 4 mission.
>server name asks people to tell me what car joiners drive so we can have a nice chat about our vehicles>no one ever even acknowledges itI get the impression that a lot of players don't even know how to read the server browser or select the hazard they want from the filter, let alone actually read server descriptions.
>>2450342I dont join faggy serbs that have "GREYBEARD ONLY" shit et al in the description I always accept having one or two shitters as an extra challenge. I never kick shitters, at worst I just let them sit on their face until picking them up is convenient to me. It's just weird to me that there's players with four digit levels who still play on haz4 and can't handle themselves on normal haz5 (not even haz5+) like how do you play the game that much without being good at it aside from cheating? Also rate my dorfs
>>2450581>how do you play the game that much without being good at it aside from cheating?No desire to improve, they unironically play DRG for the quirky humor. Sometimes when I'm bored I watch random unknown DRG streamers on twitch and you would not fucking believe how completely inept even someone with multiple hundreds of hours in this game can be, simply because they do not actually care about the gameplay loop.
>>2450581>how do you play the game that much without being good at it aside from cheating?Well DRG isn't exactly a run and shoot game like L4D is. I mean, you can obviously play it like that on lower difficulties but on Haz5 and above you need to be aware of your class' strengths and shortcomings: you can't really solo waves as Scout or going around alone as Engie with the stubby, Basically Haz4 is sandbox mode and some people prefer to play without thinking. I get it and I don't blame them for that but I do feel that they're missing a huge part of the game by playing below Lethal.>Also rate my dorfsI like the Driller.
>>2450642thanks drigga is my main and I like to look silly
>>2450635I wonder if a slightly more robust tutorial for each class would help. Not having an official shooting range on the space rig also sucks because you're forced to learn on the ground which leads to new players wanting to play safe forever.
>>2450708I don't know, man. I feel like the truly irredeemable portion of the playerbase wouldn't even touch either tutorial or shooting range, or if they did they wouldn't learn from it. Then again it would absolutely help _someone_ so it's not a bad idea either. I sometimes catch myself wanting a shooting range so I can test new builds instead of finding a live server, joining, and then being a complete dead weight because the build is actually shit or I haven't gotten used to it yet. I do think the current tutorial is very outdated anyway, so it absolutely needs some love. Not that GSG gives a shit...
>>2450553WE'RE (not) RICH
>>2450635I don't get how you can do an activity without learning to get better at it being at at least a part of your goal and enjoyment.Maybe their settings and rigs are just so bad they can hardly tell what's going on onscreen
>>2451564I play on everything Low for those stable 120 FPS on Haz5x2 too and I still get to see everything, the great thing about DRG is that even at a distance you're able to recognize a web spitter from an acid let's say because they're colored differently.
>>2451597I installed a declutter mod, disabled ragdolls and turned most particles off a few days ago and it makes the game much cleaner and enjoyable but also a little easier. Maybe I'll turn ragdolls on again. Some of the other popular verified QoL mods are like that but personally I'd rather play without my pinky or thumb falling off from holding sprint or spamming space. I used to look down on ppl with those mods
>>2451703Cheating.

>playing again after a fucking decade>join a single class lobby in progress, only class available is engineer>ick>pick a loadout (I have no idea what this is)>shotgun, gl>ok>shoot grenade launcher thinking it's hyperprop>it's actually a fat boyugh
>Crassus spawns>this ensures a quick mission is going to take like 40 minutesI'm not one of those DONT MINE GOLD autists but people take the crassus autism WAY too far
>>2452274It's literally never worth it to mine crassus gold.
>>2452274I still laugh to myself about the one game I played where the host autistically herded the crassus into the smallest tunnel possible over several minutes while telling the squad to absolutely NOT kill it before it was in there and just before they popped it I froze it with cryo so the explosion was just air and it took about a microsecond for the host to kick me.
One time I got kicked because I threw doretta's head out of the drop pod at the last second
>>2453177Deserved
>>2452502Holy kek
>>2453177One time the host rage quitted and disconnected because I threw Doretta's head INTO the pod
I once inadvertently broke up a friendship between two randoms because one of them demanded plats for every single gold vein and I simply told him no, so he started berating me until his erstwhile friend told him to calm down, so he got even angrier and left. Back in the rig after the lobby his friend told me that he kept receiving steam messages about "not sticking up for your friends" and "backstabbing".
>>2453310I used to tardwrangle my friend like that when we played Killing Floor together, he'd get unreasonably mad at randos joining our games and not playing at 100% efficiency (and we were only playing Suicidal at best back then).I should get him on DRG and see if he's changed under that regard after 10 years.
rate emor don't
>>2453477I love the turban rags scout.
>>2453477>no "lolsorandum" dumb shit thrown togetherHigh tier compared to the vast majority of subhumans playing this
>>2433031This developer doesn't fix anything. Rogue Core is a disaster right now solely because they built it on top of DRG so none of the stat interactions actually work as the text says if at all, much like literally everything in DRG
>>2453338Lost one of my steam friends on kf_manor on either suicidal or HoE because I "wouldn't heal him, useless cunt" while I was being drilled down by a fleshpound he aggroed. He was otherwise quite pleasant and levelheaded, but that game brought out the absolute worst in him. I still play occasionally, suicidal is my go-to /comfy/ difficulty.
Scunt complaining about having to find the damn Resonance Crystal
Fuck that, I completed the Rogue Core assignmentAnd yes I finished it on Haz4. It was too much of a hassle
>>2339553>>2340135>67I CACHINNATE
>>2454005>I was being drilled down by a fleshpound he aggroedBoy between all the annoying enemies GSG has added through the years I'm so glad that there's no Fleshpound or even Scrake-like in DRG. Yet. Closest comparison is probably the infectors but thankfully they're stationary enemies so they're much easier to ignore even if a greenbeard wakes one up by accident.
>>2453477reclaimer, wizard and father frost look good
>>2453477
Boys, I'm about to have a Legendary-Team°tmYou're playing all classes as well, r-right?
>>2455356>a couple classes more than one promotion ahead the rest(aka class mainer)>turboreddit class symbolsChecks out
>promoting more than oncewhy
>>2455356Gunner > Driller >>> Scout and Engie.I do eventually want to take all of them to Gold (Gunnah and Drillah are already diamond while Engie and Scout are still in Silver.)
>>2455356>these class symbolsick
>>2456028what do you like about driller? For me driller and engi are almost interchangeable, both do a lot of building and defensive holds in their own way with stickyflames, terraforming, plats and repellent plats
>>2456070>what do you like about driller?Varied and big damage primaries but mostly I love the actual drilling part because I always get easily lost in tunnels or big caves and I'm too dumb to use the terrain scanner. Driller is the easiest for me to go from point A to point B without my dumb brain exploding in the process
why is egg collection so hard with randoms
>>2456103I think that most players sees the mission as popping one egg at the time and the entire team moving to each egg spawn when in reality you want to find a good base to bunker in then send your Scout and Driller to do most of the work while the Engie and Gunner camps the base (obviously the latter two can still help by putting platforms and ziplines around the eggs)
>>2455972account level and overclocks>>2456165people either doing each egg simultaneously with no chokepoint or everyone refusing to team up, especially on haz 5 if swarmstackinglack of crowdclear for either is usually the end of the run- sticky flame or sludge pump driller, turret whip engie, armskore gunner with some builds, boltshark phero for scunt if you're good and have quick hook instead of long hook
>>2456103Just carry. It's that simple.
>>2456103Egg collection is one of the easiest missions to carry. The only missions that get annoyingly hard with shitters are Escort and Salvage and Sabotage.
>>2393124rarded
>>2457914Yes. The terrain is generally a big open cave in where to kite and collect nitra, you don't have to defend any particular location, hell, you don't even get swarm timer. Pretty much only way greenbeards can accidentally fuck you up is if they start events or trigger more eggs than they can handle(and even double swarm isn't that bad on vanilla difficulties).

coilgun moment
>>2462332>taking mag size over ammoYes. Mag size also increases your total ammo capacity, so the difference is only 35 rounds in total, except that you have to reload twice as often as I do. Total ammo count with mag size is 210 and with extra ammo it's only 245.
Tried the EDD five times this morning, all of my teams either get wiped out by the Nemesis on the first stage or slowly rage-quit because they keep going down lol. I could honestly finish it solo but it's so boring.

>>2465495FIVE TIMES?I did it at 1am with 3 frenchies that had a combined level <100 i kid you not. Acid spitters were a problem since our scout was greenI remembered to do "repellant holds" by making hot rock zones with my c4 and EPC and it worked pretty wellI can see how you would struggle in this DD without a good driller or engi, salvage can be rough without space
FUCK
>>2465897>Rockpoz contagion spike on the upper right
>>2465900I've finished Season 5 and 6
>>2465880>FIVE TIMES?What can I say? I was the Drillah in every single one of them and at least in three out of the five attempts my entire team including the Gunner immediately went down to the Nemesis in the first 30 seconds of the first stage. Not even exaggerating this, you can also hear from the start that the Nemesis is right near the pod.During the fourth attempt, we managed to kill it without any rage quitter but the rest of my teammates came out of the fight pretty bad. Even after calling a resupply, they kept going down and one by one, they all ragequitted lol
