MELEE ONLY DREADNOUGHTS | DEEP ROCK GALACTIC 

Classic leech moment 0:56

When will you do lithofoamer only dreadnaut (lithofoamer is like 0.1 dps)?

Useing sheild batery booster is genius

Back in my day

Steeve may be pretty useful in this challenge, technically he can only deal melee damage so it does not invalid the challenge and he can draw aggro from yourself too.

Please do more commentary over videos like this, it greatly improves the the quality over just watching a silent 1 hour video.

using the stalagtites for damage was so smart

I loved this video so much, man. Thank you for including your insightful commentary throughout the video! It made it so much more fun to watch :)

Another reason why Hive Guard is really annoying is when the projectiles hit even though you dodged them or the aoe of the projectile landing is too big to get away from while full sprinting. This could be a skill issue or I need to stop joining games with 200 ping.

It’s been a while since you’ve mentioned this, but will you ever do an “Opps, all Bulks!” video? I would love to see you take on that chaos. Anyways, I loved the video man. Keep up the great work :)

Appreciate you doing secondaries, optional objectives and even getting minerals. Too many "challenge runs" out there doing the bare minimum.

Legends said that Karl using nothing but only his pickaxe. Karl would indeed be proud.

My friends and I had to do this with a normal Dread and a Hiveguard simultaneously. We were on a 3 cocoon mission and thought it'd be hilarious if we popped all three simultaneously. So we did that and got two normal dreads and a hiveguard. We took out the first Dread with no problem, but the builds we took were pretty ammo-inefficient, and we were running low by the time we were partway through the second Dread. Another thing was that this map had almost no Nitra; it was kind of insane how little there was, so we ran out of what resupplies we had by that point. By that point, we realized we fucked up, and we were basically out of ammo. Half of us were desperately scrounging for Nitra while the other half was taking on the second Dread and trying to dodge the Hiveguard's volleys. We reached the point where we had 79 NITRA and one of my friends thought he had found the final piece... but it was only 0.2... So, realizing that we have no choice but to use our pickaxes, we take out the second Dread and go through the agonizing process of fighting a practically full-health Hiveguard with melee only and dying over and over because it was Haz 5, and we constantly had like 5 health. We SOMEHOW managed to do it. It was one of our greatest Deep Rock moments, but we were all kind of burnt out after that.

Holy, congratulations. I thought you would say the toughest challange would be the arbalest because its constantly on the cieling and has the fireball shotgun on lock but at least now I learnt something new about the hiveguard as well. 8:58 SLAP

Absolute cinema

Mad impressive, good stuff Kronos

Karl? is that you?

I had no idea how the Hiveguard surprise bite attack actually worked. Thanks to you, now I know how/when it happens. So thanks and congrats on an incredible run!

POV AxisKronos on his way to become Karl:

All that kiting and only power attack reminds me of when physics got completely broken and could not interact with anything. When out of ammo, and needing to take an ammo from the resupply, the mouse had to be perfectly still on a pixel, the player had to also be perfectly still, so only the calm between clearing all the bugs and the next wave is there a few chances for holding E to take the ammo to completely fill up the progress bar. That failed way too much. If this glitch still exists, the only way into the drop pod is to walk from terrain onto the ramp and then from the ramp to the exit zone.

karl would be proud

I had this exact mission earlier today, glacial strata, ebonite outbreak, 12 gunk seeds and 3 dreadnaughts, although I got twins, hiveguard, regular

That first cave leach was way too smart

lore accurate Karl

The rock souls strength build

I've thought about doing this for a while with slayer stout,. Very cool to see it being done.

Hell yeah!

The lack of the vampire perk, is concerning.

The recreation of Karl’s pain

omg a drg video ?!

Idk but in like the one time i tryed if u just circle close around barage infectors it cant hit u since u move to fast kinda like the burst turrets

I didn’t notice any flares thrown (not the scout flares, the all-class flares) in this vid. Did you intentionally refrain from throwing flares? If so, why?

DRG fans are like Hollow Knight fans - they look for more ways to torture themselves.

I thought the Hiveguard's standing still phase was a bug, I had no idea it had a chomp attack if you got close!

vampire perk probably would have really helped against the swarm you fought later on

"Ambient bug pressure" sounds like some places I've worked.

cool

What happened to the lacerator at 14:25? Half health and then just disappeared?

no way, someone actually done the Karl challenge? R&S brother!

litterally karl

Very cool! Is there a method you used to make sure you get 3 unique dreadnoughts, like a specific seed, or was that just down to chance? I imagine the challenge would be a lot less interesting if you just avoided the hiveguard or twins

I was about to type a comment suggesting you use your primary slot with hoverclock, before it fully clicked that you were using shield booster.

To me it's crazy that by the time you killed the hive guard and would be normally "practically done with the mission" I would've still been fighting the 2nd one, Im trying hard to get into speed play but this is crazy to me. Idk why but dreads are definitely my weakest mission and it always takes me so long to deal with them

are you using a mod to remove most particles in the game? im interested in how clean it kinda looks as i foray into harder difficulty (getting comfy with haz 5 and dipping toes into 5+ modular)

tbh, this just feels like a normal scout run but without bosco i've lost count of all the times i'd run out of ammo while playing as scout, and then i'd be forced to grapple all over the place while power atking stuff and letting bosco spend 1000 years to kill a single enemy, just to find out he was atking an opressor and ofc doing no damage because he doesn't know what a weakspot is. but hell, i wouldn't dare go near a dreadnough with no ammo (mostly because there's usually 999 enemies surrounding them when i'm the one playing lol)

Very impressive! Do you know whether see you in hell boosts power attacks as well? Im curious

For Karl!

"...It would be dishonest to do this while taking a down... I saw that I was capable of doing this without taking a down." Hmm... Where have i heard that before... "i know your type. you're, uh, very determined, aren't you? you'll never give up, even if there's, uh... absolutely NO benefit to persevering whatsoever. if i can make that clear. no matter what, you'll just keep going. not out of any desire for good or evil... but just because you think you can. and because you 'can'... you 'have to'." Oh yeah :) If i tried this i would definitely bring skullcrusher and vampire on top of all this. For sure. I might keep See You In Hell over IW, though. Probably not Bosco otherwise i'd just be zipping around the cave and ignoring everything while it does the mission for me. Even SBB feels a little like cheating, but doing it on haz5 feels like it needs SOMETHING like that just to make it... possible? I'd skip an omen tower, no way am i doing that.

Idk why but I can’t talk in the official discord of drg

Now kill with flare gun flares only

In my expierance, the arbelist had a hit and run strategy it sill fire a ranged attack then burro into thd ground the other is more agressiv and chases players drawing away attdntion for the arbelist to apwn right behind you

The unga bunga challenge

Do you use the auto jump mod or are you just that consistent at bhopping? Like holy shit those jumps are good.

I don't know if running bug thing instead of vampire makes me hate you or love you

Karl's found footage

If we think 'bout it, the flare gun can deal some damage, i think a flare gun only run would be intresting Edit: i think pheromones should have been allowed, cuz the ebonites are constantly spawning, and only deal melee damage, and the grenade itseld deals none(sorry if someone said it already)

Did the spirit of Karl possess this man or what?

why

Ummm you used the flaregun which does damage🤓

8:59 i get that reference

Are you using the auto b-hop mod?

Caretaker mission when?

8:58 shoutout to gago

When is the thorns only run

is that axiskronox from the hit channel axiskronos?

The cookie challenge pls

This is enough proof to me, that Karl might still be out there

this is just monster hunter rise

Why not play the driller?

DRG vid with no rocking and stoning in the comments?

Could of added the blowdart overclock for m1000. to help speed up the process
