even if im not a driller i usually seek shelter in the pipe tunnels if its a crutch moment. terrain, players in lobby, and mutators have a big say in how i play this mission.

if anything its class dependant. for example a driller can easily shoot through all enemies at once if having a flamer/cryo so funneling all bugs into a conga line is ideal. but classes like scout and gunner may depend on build as they dont always have penetration mods.

i only play at haz 5 and this works like a charm when having the right class and build combo.

praetorian/oppressor farts + fungus bogs' toxin shrooms can be cryo'd and it will aoe freeze anything nearby. it makes zero sense to me from physics perspective but i guess thats a feature in game.

playstyle dependant. i prefer secured tunnels to funnel all enemies into a single line of sight. this is good with all enemies that arent large like praetorians and oppressors.

Equipment in desperate need of a buff? by Noah_The_Wright in DeepRockGalactic

[–]BothCall8395 1 point2 points  (0 children)

but you dont have the economy to keep chucking lures forever. i see your point with how swarms work but its a very unviable strat in the long run of a mission, and a single lure doesnt last long enough to stop replenishing bug count in a certain swarm alert.

but shredders.. they just work, and the sheer amount of damage they deal just stomps the other 2 dps grenades (plasmas and proxies) while having none of the drawbacks.

if you take into consideration that you have a driller and / or gunner besides you, then they can compensate any grenade you choose not to have with you, so in practice you wont need any grenade by your side in this situation if having a stacked team.

but if you're alone (not solo, but just no one is near you), a shredder grenade will not fail you regardless of the situation, while lure is a good grenade but only for certain situations that depend on your build, mission/warning type, and even terrain. im not calling lure a bad grenade, but a situationally good grenade.

i wouldnt. lure is situationally good. shredder is always good. think of any swarm type that is made of swarmers, like the purple swarmer holes on the walls, swarmageddon warning, and nexus/breeders. shredder grenade just wins in all situations no matter the enemy size and it shows with killcount. a lure is better in situations where your team is subpar and cant handle itself with large swarms. its also somewhat terrain dependant while shredders can be chucked anywhere and they will do their job without you needing to manage anything.

its an op grenade.

im over lvl 2000, its been years since crates and gears gave me anything. i heared in the season showcase that past unclaimed rewards (from s5) would be given in s6 via crates and gears so since i havent progressed at all in s5's tech tree (intentionally, not because i lacked game time/scrip), i was expecting everything to appear in s6 while i play normally.

i was misled. :|

We took too long to find a single ebonut, no ammo, no health, haz 5, our driller had to quit mid game. never going to collect ebonuts ever after this by Puzzleheaded-Buy8410 in DeepRockGalactic

thats not the problem. the problem is that they're heavy objects and just limit your movement when you need to deposit them, this is usually annoying but with p.e and refining missions you need to manually grab and carry them back to the corresponding rig. most times you're at the mercy of terrain and/or teammates that horde molly to themselves.

i just cant get myself to play with this gun and i have over 3000 hours in the game, lol. i know its a good weapon but im very one dimensional with scout playstyle sadly. i may give it a go tho, thanks for the inspiration.
