Elite Deep Dives and Driller loadout

[SoulHunterWirriam]

Hi

Me and my buddy (gunner with bulldog and autocannon) started doing EDD recently. We have yet to complete one but we somehow manage to fail at the end of stage 2 or in the middle of stage 3 when the swarms start to get bigger and bigger.

So I wanted to ask you guys what loadouts are you using and especially what OCs work for you.

Here's what you do as Driller:

Flamethrower: [1, 3, 2 ,3 ,2] Stick Fuel OC.

Take your mouse, hold click, and swipe your mouse in large circles in front of the swarm as fast as possible with varying circle radius.

Boom, you're the team crowd control / main glyphid destroyer.

This is my favourite driller loadout for EDD's:

But I can only recommend you this EPC build if you already have experience with EPC mining. It can require a few weeks of practice to get consistent results with it.

Scout or his second name "The Medic", IronWill & QuickRevive, full speed build, just running around, breaking armor with my machine gun.

Driller, Duration / fire slowdown for control, like Dozey, large circles infront of you and wait, go in close space help a lot

Engineers, double turrets mainly around dammage, run in circle, shoot one or 2times with my plasma cutter = no more swarm

Heavy except using zipline i cant tell you i dont play him dat much

Hes right. Once I figured out sticky fuel I dropped face melter for good.
If you couple this with the subata with tranq rounds and extra damage to enemies on fire you can stun praetorians in sticky flames, watch them melt for a couple of seconds then put a couple more rounds in them to finish.

Thank you all for the answers. I will check the builds in game.

I actually use an extremely similar loudout. Huge terraforming ability with serious ability to self-sustain. I couldn't recommend this build enough, although my preferences for the cryo cannon and EPC are slightly different.
