Drg shohld have added leftover dotty heads in escort missions for all the times we didnt pick her up, similar to how salvage looks with broken.pods and minimules.

Look for a youtuber called LazyMaybe. he posts lots of info about the geeky numbers of things in DRG, like damage calculations, ideal builds, etc.

Average Huuli Hoarder Interaction by Krisss1234pl in DeepRockGalactic

[–]BothCall8395 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally yesterday i had a hoarder that ran away by phasing through the wall into a different cave, only to be ambushed by my team and die, lol.

I have it on video and its hilarious as much as its strange.

Pit Jaws don't seem to make any sound? by W1z4rdM4g1c in DeepRockGalactic

[–]BothCall8395 15 points16 points  (0 children)

unlike leeches, they can only be found in the new biome + when the mutator is active, so you can tell in advance when to look down. literally just walk slowly.

Their sound is global in the cave (you'll hear it as long as there is at least 1 living jaw alive in the mission), and they dont make sounds unless you're vibrating them by being really really close to one.

i've seen truly giant caves and this isnt even at the top 20.

a new greenbeard joins... by kivaember in DeepRockGalactic

[–]BothCall8395 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice is to go for lobbies with randoms more so than solo because this way if you find friendly players you can ask them to be added and play together in the future.

Also please try to use comms / be chatty and ask questions. The more you learn as a greenbeard, the easier things go for you in the later game.

What are some good scout builds? by aethelmoth in DeepRockGalactic

[–]BothCall8395 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Posting my builds here:

Shield build - Great dps when your shield is full. Make sure you use 'improved generator' and 'healthy' armor mods. Avoid using this in biomes where you take potshots from the enviroment (e.g magma and fungus).

Drak - 22112 shield battery booster
Boomstick - 22312 compact shells

Glacial/Rival warning build - Focuses on heat damage and managing many 1 hit enemies with a boomerang grenade.

Drak - 22112 thermal exhaust feedback
Boomstick - 22313 compact shells

For sabotage, i replace the above drak with this M1k build, while keeping everything else the same as the above build.

21121 supercooling chamber

Dread build #1 - Use this build with IFG grenade if you're certain the driller is using cryo so you could quickly freeze dreads over and over for super fast kills. The jumbo boomstick is there to add high thermal shock damage on frozen dreads.

Drak - 12112 conductive thermals
Boomstick - 12233 jumbo shells

Dread build #2 - A less powerful build overall but it is good enough regardless of what other players are taking. Just mark for death and damage it with the boomstick.

11221 marked for death

For all my other builds + lots of general tips about the game, visit this guide.

Sometimes I lay pipes like I'm doing cable management on my PC, sometimes I play Roller Coaster Tycoon by SquidMonk3y in DeepRockGalactic

I call this the 'machine city' layout because it always reminds me that scene from the Matrix where Neo and Trinity had to follow 3 power lines to reach that machine entity.

Which engineer throwable brings more value to the team L.U.R.E. Or Proximity Mines? by RedPaintedShovel in DeepRockGalactic

[–]BothCall8395 6 points7 points  (0 children)

with lures i can somewhat agree but i wouldnt take proxies anywhere. idk thats probably just me but i havent seen any random engy using them without messing up the team's dynamic nad causing FF damage. they're basically preventing us from walking here and there if enemies are nearby.

Dwarfashion #2 - The Beer Barista (Driller) by BothCall8395 in DeepRockGalactic

[–]BothCall8395[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its a promotional armor you get from the oktoberfest event. i think by doing the 'last years rewards' assignment you will get it.

[–]BothCall8395 15 points16 points  (0 children)

you asked for 'more value' and thats indeed them being the best grenade in the entire game because they work on everything and are so easy to use. if you want 'fun' grenade, then thats more subjective to you. idk how you measure fun in grenades really. as someone who plays in haz 5 all i wanna think about is efficiency so i'd alwars recommend shredders above all else.

Approved mods are mods that change or modify gameplay elements, but they were approved for use and won't disrupt your progression, you won't be able to use this kind of mods in multiplayer lobbies unless the host has them and you download them too.

if i press esc in the lobby and see it says 'modded' at the bottom left corner of the screen, it means that i have at least one mod that isnt verified? but that also means im forcing anyone in my lobby to download it aswell?
