@@robertyang4365 basically, your best friend in the work force. They’re the guys that basically stop your employers from treating you like a child worker in the 1800’s
During a particularly stressful wave, I had decided to activate the thing thinking it would kill the bugs because that’s what it was designed to do. Guess who figured out the hard way it doesn’t do that.
Wish there was a mission type setting up auto turrets or something to clear out caves. An entirely swarm oriented mission type. I like the thought of dwarves clearing out an especially dangerous cave with a mobile firearm platform. Like doretta but you stand on top with a couple heavy weapons, needing to be rearmed or repaired. By special resupplies, not oil shale. and it’s entirely oriented on clearing swathes of bugs. Then getting dottys mean sister back into the crate in a final escort.
i actually thought a new mission type similar to that kind of idea. "Cargo Transport" you'd actually drive something similar to the drilldozer, and MAYBE you'd have limited resupplies on the transport.
Sounds rather similar to my idea of a "Raid" type mission where to need to kill a Glyphid queen to retake back the sector so DRg can continue operations (when dreads finish cooking they come out as something that forces operations to be shut down in the area for a month). You have to progress through a linear cave system consisting of 2-4 large rooms that have 1 guaranteed swarm each, with a final room that has a ginormous glyphid queen that you can only damage with super high caliber rounds fired by (rather flimsy) heavy turrets mission control sends down. Aka mission control sends down a turret, you defend it until it fires, it breaks itself from recoil, another one is sent, rinse and repeat a few times, glyphid queen is dead, go home.
Tipp: Place a resupply pod on the radial pulse gun platform, you can safely trigger it without being hit by it. No need for platforms and the resup can also cover you from the heavy machine gun.
Another tip: If you're unable to place a supply pod onto the auth pad, shoot a platform onto it first, then call the supply pod on top of the platform. That's what I had to do. I think they patched out being able to call it onto the pad directly.
or just call molly to place it on the top to avoid getting hit by the pulse gun platform. it works all the time and doesn't need to call resupply to place on those pads
I highly recommend instead of the ditch method, go for a ridge method. Carve out a ring shape inside the walls surrounding the tower at a safe height, then drill through the thin wall to create windows. Basically over-glorified arrowslits similar to the ones built on medieval castles. All teammates should hide and peek from there except driller and gunner who should be on the battlefield opening the tanks. There should also be a designated escape person with an escape room / route. Edit- Love the content can't wait for more!
I second the ridge method. The ditch has the added problem of making it harder to escape the pulse gun and drones when somebody goes down and a dwarf gets the bright idea to res from the ditch.
Awesome this is definitely the main machine event I see new players struggle with. One key mistake you didn't address, I see many players who seem to think they have to permanently stand on the unlock pads to keep them open. It's often vital to move off after unlocked. I even thought this the first time I played it, and see others do it too. I didn't know the opposite is always the bottom one. That's super useful.
Oh true true, that does become a problem sometimes. Or even when some players will refuse to get off and end up in more danger trying to get it open again asap.
Best video on the subject. But let me help you with that corporate anouncement. In so many words it would state, 1. The Omen tower initiative was a total success at reducing risk in Hoxxes V. (The reality is, the blasted things NEVER engage against bugs!) 2. They've been SO successful, in fact, that to make sure we dont endanger indiginous species, we are decommissioning all towers, because DRG deeply cares about natural ecology as well as its employees. 3. Decomissioning is a simple and safe proceedure, but if, due to operator error, the tower does engage operators, follow standard safety proceedure, and all will be well. Deep Rock Galactic thanks you for your service! Rule #1 of corporate bullshit is, never admit error, never apologize!
I like how DRG used to treat Hoxxes the same way the rivals do now. Using mostly remote mechanical means to clear places to mine. I also like how all the old DRG tech is so much more deadly than anything the rivals have used so far. Bet-C can take on so many Nemesis bots.
I love this it just oozes that deep rock charm. also honestly has a similar feeling to addendums and procedures you'd find on the SCP wiki. I adore this stuff keep it up
I do hope they add more lore to the things that are in game, imagine if you could find equipment used to install the exterminators lying nearby, I think it would add some life to the game. Speaking of which hopefully they update Bet-C’s looks like they did with the drop pod claw and the aqwark rocket
Management by Louis has said Betsy‘s are off-limits. At least don’t bring it back to the station because even if he could we’ve already taken down the insurance so tax fraud would be happening if one was found on the station
Platforms and ziplines aren't the only things that can let you stay elevated over the purple beams and use the pads. The almighty resupply pod, set up directly next to the pad, allows you to stand on its side over the pad to use it as well, allowing even the Driller and Scout to easily use the same strategy.
Satchel Charges are the answer for everything. They can hit all the weakpoints on a large threat simultaniously, saving ammo and dealing massive damage at the cost of only one. They can hit all the vents on a Caretaker if thrown on top of it. They can hit all soft spots on Glyphid Hiveguards when blown up while they stand on it. And with Omens, they can hit all the cooling tanks on all three modules at the same time.
The drones on solo missions should deploy every six seconds in from the last one if all were killed and none were out and deploy every nine seconds regardless if any are killed or not. But on multiplayer mode missions, they are as they are now, because the drones will only go after one target unless you have the drilldozer, hacking pod, Steve, hacked patrol bot, engineer’s lure grenade or scout’s pheromone grenades!
I wish they gave us more backstory on these awesome machines that drg sent down there like this and bet-c. They are so cool and I would love to see like how well they worked, how they were made and when, just some cool backstory of my favorite game ever
Omen seems to be genuinely the hardest machine event around, unless Tritilyte Crystal one spawns bomb dispenser in some impossible location. And I think it is because the access platforms are not exactly well communicated to players. I have seen time and time again people (myself included, until recently) just waiting for the vents to open, not realising that you have to stand on the pads.
I definitely feel this way about it. It doesn't helps that if other players do the access platforms every time new players may never learn since they just see them open on their own if they don't notice.
such high quality, pretty cool to have found you. I love this game, got hundreds of hours and play since closed beta, yet I never was able to beat that thing!
Even if you aren't driller, the trench tactic is always solid against OMEN. Make sure to make the trench *behind* the acces platforms, so you can use them as cover. Always do the pulse gun first, but clear the drone 2nd if you do this. It's the only module that can always do damage, especially to oblivious teammates.
Last time my team saw an OMEN we had just finished up our refining operation, and the stupid thing almost took us all out! This should definitely help us next time around though, thanks for the advice!
I love how immersive these vids are. The game itself is very immersive as well with how grounded in the game world everything feels (like the scanner, picking things up, the breakable environment etc) - its just a shame theres not more lore to find in the levels like environmental storytelling. Maybe the lost packs could have log entries of the final moments from whoever perished there... just small stuff
@@siirvend writing game lore has to be a really fun job in general :D but definitely keep these vids up man theyre great. I know you got just a couple of these planned but maybe a whole series would be cool? Like covering the glyphoids, mactera etc, all in this briefing kinda style - would work very well...
Driller here, one other thing we can use is our C4 on the pulse gun to take it out early or severely damage it. Also the plasma charger can a lot of damage to the tanks
Amazing video as always!Great montage and your sound quality is top notch Also, kinda sad that you didnt mention how c4 is really good against OMEN if multiple cooling tanks are open but its okay, Im sure that most drillers will think about blowing this deadly tin can to bits when they see one Rock and stone!
I thought about it but I figured people would do that anyway yeah. I usually have the huuuuge radius on my C4 so it's very easy to hurt myself and others in that situation lol
First time we got this, we were on an a haz 4 elimination. We had completed the quota and had recently promoted my gunner, and we found this thing and were like sure why not? Hah lol, never activated this machine event after that until I was a silver gunner
Rock and stone! This should be a delightful guide (and watch) to everyone I show it to. Great information, tactics, and humour. Another fantastic one, Siirvend.
Oh for sure. Thr dreadnought video will have to happen but I still need to not get served by the twins every other time I fight them before I give any advice on those haha
Here are some other things you can do to make the fight somewhat easier. 1. Make 4 platforms in a plus sign which a scout can grapple to that are at or above the middle module. (This will help keep him alive if there aren't natural perching spots) 2. When you drill your trenches if you can make sure that the trench doesn't require you to go onto an access pad to get to the other trenches. (In other words make the all linked together so that you don't have to risk it just to keep going in the trench) 3. Use your explosives like sticky, plasma, cluster, and HE grenades since they will probably hit all 3 weakpoints of an omen module. (Most of these grenades are less effective against the 2 upper modules) 4. You can use Molly to stand on access pads or put a resupply pod too. (You may have to put a platform on the access platform to get a pod called on it or call it above and mine under to drop it) (I got the resupply idea from 33482 from this video's comments section)
@@siirvendthe drone replicator module spin slowly around the room but rotates slower than the heavy burster module especially if the two modules were encountered in the event and rotating the same direction.
I may be a couple years late but a strategy I've discovered is especially helpful on solo: If you're playing Engi with Gemini system and shredder drones, you can set your turrets up on opposite sides of the Omen and once the event starts deploy your drones. They typically make quick work of it when paired with other weaponry
I literally just found this channel and subscribed about five hours before this video came out. How are you watching me? Are you actually someone from management? TH-cam management perhaps? Regardless, it's a great video with stunning quality as always. Thanks for the tips!
My go-to strat is to order a resup pod right on top of the radial pulse gun's maintenance platform. Unlike engineer's pancakes, it doesn't break and basically trivializes it in my experience
Something to note. Before the Omen Tower’s core infuser is activated, the pad repels bugs. Standing on the pad during a wave can prevent melee bugs from overwhelming you. Don’t raise the tower until you’re ready to fully activate it to fully take advantage of this.
The shortcomings of the OMEN. 1. You have to manually activate it 2. It doesn't have any targeting parameters, so you're not safe from it. (No damage reducing safeguards ether). 3. Some of the placement locations are....less then ideal for its intended purpose. 4. There is no way for it to lure bugs toward it so it can do its job. 5. Mainly effect in very flat caves or in close range, you have to get close to it to kite bugs into it. 6. Previous uses have scarred the bugs, and they usually choose to stay away when they sense the vibration it gives off. 7. Why do they send experimental tech in the core infuser down there when they can just research it off world. 8. No off switch. 9. Only deters swarms while online through fear. 10. Immobile Possible upsides. No swarms occur while running. Extra rewards and payment if decommissioned. Results 300% less effective then a BET-C 700% more dangerous then a malfunctioning BET-C Conclusion a very stupid idea. Yet why are there so many in the caves.
I'm only 3 mins in but I like and comment already. I love your video and how you phrase things. I know in advance I'll be fully prepared for this Omen at the end while being entertained. Thanks♥ Edit after watching : Excellent video !!
You should go in depth on every machine event like Kursite Grinder, Overcharged Pickaxe Dispenser and Tritylite Shard. Also Management really needs to invest in some better equipment!
I like how you tried to act like this isn’t a game and is in fact an osha tutorial for safely disposing of your company-funded death machine

They added this with the Aquarqs.

Very good point!

That would work very well I bet! I actually do that as driller when I deal with Korloks so I should try that on one of these.
If the omen has a plasma cutter at its base. DONT BOTHER with engineer platform towers for cover. As they just go through the engineer platform towers

I fear no glyphid. But that... thing... It scares me.
These guides are AMAZING!
fantastic guide man
I fear no bug at any hazard, but I hesitate to activate the OMEN.
Something to note. Before the Omen Tower’s core infuser is activated, the pad repels bugs. Standing on the pad during a wave can prevent melee bugs from overwhelming you. Don’t raise the tower until you’re ready to fully activate it to fully take advantage of this.
Oh that's neat
Thanks for the tutorial lol. Ive seen missions wiped out by these things, they are not to be fucked with if at least half of your team isnt prepared
Definitely, it really helps when one or two of you know whats up
I've been doing these all wrong. I learned so much!
The shortcomings of the OMEN.
1. You have to manually activate it
2. It doesn't have any targeting parameters, so you're not safe from it. (No damage reducing safeguards ether).
3. Some of the placement locations are....less then ideal for its intended purpose.
4. There is no way for it to lure bugs toward it so it can do its job.
5. Mainly effect in very flat caves or in close range, you have to get close to it to kite bugs into it.
6. Previous uses have scarred the bugs, and they usually choose to stay away when they sense the vibration it gives off.
7. Why do they send experimental tech in the core infuser down there when they can just research it off world.
8. No off switch.
9. Only deters swarms while online through fear.
10. Immobile
Possible upsides.
No swarms occur while running.
Extra rewards and payment if decommissioned.
Results
300% less effective then a BET-C
700% more dangerous then a malfunctioning BET-C
Conclusion a very stupid idea.
Yet why are there so many in the caves.
I'm only 3 mins in but I like and comment already. I love your video and how you phrase things. I know in advance I'll be fully prepared for this Omen at the end while being entertained. Thanks♥
Edit after watching : Excellent video !!
Ayyy thank you!
You should go in depth on every machine event like Kursite Grinder, Overcharged Pickaxe Dispenser and Tritylite Shard.
Also Management really needs to invest in some better equipment!
I could probably fit those into a video together strategy-wise, the OMEN is unique in its complexity
@@siirvend Alright. If you don't Rock And Stone, You ain't coming home.

O man, this is a good OMEN! Really though, this vid is top tier.
Love the atmosphere
