What's the better loadout for Driller for Industrial Sabotage?

[Blind]

The flames do little against the robots

[Chibbity]

Robots die instantly when sit on fire, a high heat build works great for dealing with them.

As Driller you're job is gonna be dealing with the tentacles/adds while your team fights the caretaker.

[Mastema]

Sludge Blast OC for goo pump with EPC is pretty good in terms of dealing with the caretaker

[An Ordinary Noob]

This is the build I use exclusively for sabotage:

CRSPR: 22331 with Fuel Stream Diffuser

With that you should be able to ignite/instakill two drones or tentacles if done properly per mag.

About secondary, what I use ALWAYS.

EPC: 21122 with Energy Rerouting (I mostly use it as a tool, minning or aoe killer if do the "combo shoot).

WHAT I WOULD use in sabotage if I went tryhard mode(I havent tried it myself):

EPC: 21121 with Heavy Hitter or something similar.

[CCShad]

Facemelter OC on the CRSPR to instakill turrets and patrol bots, Heavy Hitter OC EPC to take down sniper turrets from afar (and damage the caretaker). If you work with teammates to get your max dmg C4 on top of the Caretaker, it can almost solo the vent phase. Alternatively you can take the AOE upgrade and Volatile Compound so that you can place it below the caretaker and still do an extremely high amount of damage without as much effort.

I recommend axes as your grenade to help deal with praetorians, oppressors, and other tanky organic enemies you may encounter.

[Qua2ar]

Heat was nerfed against robots, it's still ok.
Against the boss, only epc with heavy hitter is good.

[tv]

vim pump, axes, explosive subata or cwc. between the pump and the c4 you should demolish the caretaker armor easily. Don't bother showing up with cryo or epc.

[NeloDante]

Full damage C4 to put on top of the Caretaker and see how it deals massive damage to the 4 shields at the same time.

[GIRL]

Ice Storm is actually decently effective against them and I think more people should try it.

[Jack left town]

Driller's job is to kill tentacles with flammenwerfer since they die faster that way than from LS^2 or shart diffractor
But really you can do whatever you want up to and including hard mixture ice spear, it's a circlestraf to win kind of fight

[ULTRA]

Yeah, CRISPR at the tentacles. I personally do distance and heat just so I can "laser" offending robots down.

Yeah, max range is where it's at; you can't heat them up if you can't reach them!

[JeanneOskoure]

You're here to use your power attack on the tentacles to one shot them, and drop a C4 on the vents. You can also throw from below and if you did it correctly you can damage 3 vents at once.
Then you use whatever weapon you have to do damage. Range is good for sniper turrets and if you can't be arsed to chase bots.

[Sokaku]

If playing solo, I recommend playing another class.
If playing in a group, I recommend playing another class.

you just have no reason to use anything except FSD max heat CRSPR on IS since it's the most efficient build for all cases
it covers the hack-c defence sections (especially with sticky flames) and it's the perfect tool to use for killing the caretaker's tentacles, all whilst being highly ammo efficient in the process and leaving your secondary slot free for whatever you want to use

it's not a case of "oh well i use [insert ♥♥♥♥-build here] and i win industrial sabotage every time (haz3 btw) so just use whatever you like!! :DDDd" driller literally just does not have any use vs the caretaker outside of melting down the tentacles. the gamemode literally doesn't let him succeed once the hack-c defending segments are over because the caretaker can't be frozen and his secondaries barely damage it

the only builds that come even slightly close are ice storm cryo (which even then is more ammo hungry and has less range) or sludge blast (which is driller's only decent option for damaging the caretaker but makes him useless during hack-c defence)

with how stringent it is on using the correct build type it's almost like industrial sabotage shouldn't have been pushed into the regular mission pool or something 🤓 🤓 🤓 🤓 🤓 🤓
