1:46 I'd actually argue that if you take Mining Expert in tier 1 for bosco, he actually is better than you at digging out heavy objects. Very useful on point extraction especially. Sometimes you can complete the entire objective using bosco, without having to ever personally leave the minehead. Mining Expert also makes bosco faster at making tunnels through compacted dirt than everyone except driller, and he can also mine minerals faster than dwarves with this upgrade too, the downside there being that he dumps the minerals on the floor, and sometimes they can roll into hard-to-reach locations.
@@jonathannash8471 yeah honestly there's a ton I could have (and in hindsight should have) said about Bosco's upgrades, from tailoring his rockets to getting an extra revive or kitting him to be better at material gathering he can be tuned to what you need
10/10 video! I honestly really love playing DRG and Helldivers solo. Playing solo on high difficulties in Helldivers is nearly impossible, mostly because objectives are being constantly swarmed with enemies and I don't have the tools to deal with them all before more spawn. Bosco adds just enough help that it makes DRG actually playable, as I can effectively do two things at once.
yeah DRG for sure handles things differently than most (usually you get nothing or ai clones of normal players) but the way they go about it really...rocks :D ...oh gods I'm doing it again.
true solo kinda sucks on some classes on certain missions but if you are willing to change class and weapons depending on the mission then true solo is also pretty good
@titaniumarrow8357 yeah it can definitely be a rough experience, which I think is partially why the people who do it are so impressive, works as an excellent show of mastery to conquer your classes weaknesses
@@titaniumarrow8357I'd argue that true solo gunner is the most impressive one for some missions, such as on site refining and egg hunt (depending on how the cave is layed out). The number one thing gunner relies on Bosco for is reaching far away heavy objects and minerals. I've ran into a few layouts on point extraction especially that have been help to complete as a true solo gunner. Sure, scout isn't easy to build for wave clear, but it can be done. I recommend you take a look at double barrel for the boomstick, thermal exhaust feedback drak combined with crypto bolts boltshark, or aggressive venting drak. All three of these are examples of scout builds with some phenomenal swarm clear if you know how to use them, and if you have the ammo for it.

I’ve actually played substantially more solo than coop, which is an odd thing to have happen in a coop based game

always good to see drg content
great vid man! keep going!
