Drillevator escape S tier driller power move

[PlebNC (UK)]

- Escape pod called.
- Grab jet boots first and get high up the shaft first.
- Drop C4 down shaft.
- Decide if your teammates screaming is satisfactory or try your luck detonating it as it falls.
- Revive teammates if they get downed.

What part of "no way of determining" did you fail to discern?

I have ways to determine it and so does everyone else with more than room temperature IQ. Have a nice day, though.

Ah yes, the "I just know ok" defence.

- Look down, jump and keep firing until you reach the top before your teammates call in the drop pod and get their jet boots.
- Rock and Stone

Yup. Do that everytime as Scout.

OP and everyone else that's instantly agreeing to keep that stupid meme alive when it deserves to be dead and gone are why people complain about Driller mains blowing them up here on the forums!

What meme? I was very confused as a new player as to why a driller kept throwing c4 on me and blowing me up even with the friendly perk on...

C4 is powerful enough it can be strong enough to overpower the friendly perk. This is needed to give it the power needed to be useful in combat.
The meme comes from the Driller's C4 having an extremely high likelihood for friendly fire. Most of the time it's accidental, like a Scout runs in to shoot at close range just as a Driller chucks out a C4 and gets blown up, but it's also a great pranking tool. I wouldn't call it a griefing tool as DRG doesn't really penalise getting downed as rezzing is easy and fast and any health loss is easily fixed with red sugar or a resupply pod and most Drillers only do it at times when it doesn't affect mission success like at the droppod when nearly everyone's inside or in my original post's example, during the easiest escape phase in the game.

Grab two morkite seeds.
Leave the geode without depositing.
Teammates now have to dig through dense rock to reach you.

Oh my god, I need to do this.

Try pulling that ♥♥♥♥ on Hazard 5, see how FAST one "joke" C4 can make the mission go south!

Bruh, you say that like I'd do it during an attack wave and not at the end once at least one person is in the droppod so success is guaranteed.

I've had my fair share of trolls and griefiers in NUMEROUS cooperative shooters, saying "I wouldn't ever do something that could result in a wipe" isn't valid evidence to sway my perception, ACTIONS speak louder than words!

Sounds like willful ignorance when the action you claim speaks louder than words is not causing wipe with my tomfoolery and you choose not to listen to it.
And again, it's not griefing. It's a one-off prank. I'm not repeatedly being a jerk to the same player to pressure them into quitting. I'm downing a person in a funny way, then immediately rezzing them in a game where rezzing has barely any risk or consequence and not doing it again for the rest of a game.

I did this. Confusion ensued.
