To be clear. Minelayer does not recieve its damage buff if you hit bugs directly, so if you want that play style, rocket barrage is the pick.

For those curious about Rockey Barrage. Run aoe radius, double clip, aoe damage and aoe stun. Find a crowd and thank me later ❤

I honestly love plasma burster missles. It has a little less of a panicky or reactive playstyle, but the amount of damage a single rocket can do is insane. It may not clear swarms super fast, but it can clear an entire wave with 10 rockets from an insane distance. Its honestly my favorite OC for the zipline camping playstyle.

7:46 you take a mortal dwarf... and give him the rocket barrage overclock... watch him become a god! watch glyphid's bodys blow..

This is my favorite for the Gunner. It's large Aoe, high damage per hit, plentiful ammo, and guided missiles makes it able to deal with so many scenarios and hordes on the fly. Pair it with the Revolver with elephant rounds OC, and you got a kit that can deal with pretty much anything Hoxxes can throw at you. Aside from getting blown up by Engie's nukes, or Driller's C4 anyways... Great vid as usual!

Salvo charge up speed is effected by ROF so run Rof if you need charge speed. It also gives a damage bonus per rocket of +4 direct and +4 aoe at max charge.

I got this weapon, and I thought it was pure hot garbage, until I got the OC of hyper-propellant and now I actually like using it.

I don't wanna be that guy, but you are saying mineslayer instead of minelayer Great video tho, love the series!

I am really happy I had found this channel. Thanks for doing DRG videos! I like your spin on these things. 🤝

One use case for cutting off rocket guidance by swapping weapons is to create a small plasma whirlwind when running Plasma Burster Missiles. If youre aiming at a larger or flying enemy, when you swap, the rockets will start circling them, creating something akin to Engie's Spinning Death Breach Cutter, except a much larger range. You can use this to slow down enemies passing through that area and chip away at the big target while you unload a Bulldog magazine into them for some extra dps. You should always run extra stun on PBM anyway, which lets you slow down a small group of enemies for a short while with this, if you dont just wipe em out entirely.

When you start on Secondary Weapons, please consider recommending which primary to pair with and why. Such as, which secondary would best offset the disadvantages of using Salvo Module on Hurricane Primary. Thanks

Just subbed been watching your videos love the info

5:24 Wow, "The Rock" reference; excellent tastes m8 👌

This is same thing as that other video you did. The trick to getting people to subscribe. this had me in stitches! XD 5:23

My favorite weapon overall, I'm running the plasma rockets, and I found if you target the very top of the pillars on the escort mission, you can shut them down with a simple stern look of your cursor.

Yessssss a vid about very explosive weapon

Could you do these kinds of videos for all the secondary weapons too? I'd really like it if they existed

I'm a gunner main he is basically the only class I ever play. In my experience every gun has its own pros and cons and one isn't necessarily better than the other. I personally really like the rocket pod. Other gunners say its too slow coming off of the thunderhead or mini gun which I get but it's not meant for firing super quick imo. Its best for large swarms especially from a distance. You can take out dozens on dozens of glyphids in a few seconds. Its kinda weak against big heavy targets in which case I pull out the brrt with a damage overclock and hit the weak points on the bugs.

1:50 you can loose a barrage of plasma bursters onto a big, slow target like a hiveguard and swap to your secondary to shoot it while you're still "shooting" it with the missiles. I was unsure about that OC at first but i love it so much now ❤ Edit: slap stun on those bad boys and you can do this to praetorians, wardens, whatever you want to have a really bad day :)

You do NOW want to be hitting enemy's with the Minelayer you REALLY want them to hit the ground. They get a x2.75 AoE damage bonus and a x1.5 AoE radius. As for the Rocket barrage you what to try and load 3 rockets at a time since it will do enough damage to kill grunts. 4 will do it in AoE alone.

I wasn't a big fan of Hurricane at first, but after I unlocked the Plasma Burster... Man I love this weapon. Hurricane in general with incendiary rockets works insanely well with revolver and volatile bulets/flame nades. Rocket Barrage is my second favorite OC. Is it meta? Not at all. Is it fun? Like hell.

Love this weapon, especially with plasma burster, but was disappointed with salvo module. I feel like you lose "damage per missile" when you charge it up since the spread is so wide most missiles will miss past 5 feet. Would love it if they brought the spread in 40% or increased the explosion radius of the missiles dramatically if they mean for it to carpet an area.

i like this series it helps me understand Deep Rock Galactics weapons so much better.

Gunner's coil handgun always go alongside my missiles because of the synergy between setting them on fire and EXPLODING said bugs I suggest you do this one in sequence

Salvo is really fun, imo. If you count in the amount of rockets needed for each glyphid, you can basically one shot them and not lose any ammo you could've if you accidentally held the fire button for too long.

Shard diffractor for the next episode!

It's called the minelayer but Javarak calls it the mine SLAYER. that would be a cool OC if it existed

Rocket Shotgun my beloved ❤

I really need to play gunner more

I'd like to see the microwave gun from the driller or the coil gun from the gunner done as I've not used them yet XD

Boomstick for the next weapon?

The 40mm deepcore PGL

Rocket Barrage is pretty much Deepcore GK2 but with area damage.

Give me a dwarven Battlewalker. Let it mount either 2 Leadstorms or 2 Autocannons in the arms and then 1 missle pod on the shoulder

Salvo on a frozen dreadnought might aswell just skip the dmaage window. They will INSTANTLY lose their chunk of hp and go into the invulnerable shift

ooooo rocket gun go fshhhhhh boom boom boom rock and stone

Secondary weapons next?

I don't know why, but balanced overclocks seem more like unstable ones as they turn the gameplay upside down, while the actual unstable overclocks usually still have somewhat similar gameplay to the baseline.

tbf rocket launcher is kind of weapon that always repulse me, no matter the build. i just seen to hate every single aspect of this weapon: show projectiles (even with speed upgrade is too slow), guidance (although without it is too inaccurate), firepower feels very underwhelming. somehow despite apparently being so strong it managed to become my most hated gun in drg.

My friends tell me you need to get drunk to have fun playing gunner, I beg to differ

I dont care for the rocket launcher, but that plasma overclock seems more my style... if I can get it...

Nice video, very on point. Made me sad by reminding about mediocre existence of Rocket Barrage. I mean, i really like the Rocket Machinegun concept, but why Rocket Barrage lacks the MG part? WHERE IS MY BIG MAGAZINE??? What the point of the upsides and downsides if it gives you the same thing if you didn't used overclock, but now you lack guidance system for accuracy AND RELOAD MOST OF THE TIME. Here, out of spite i just made up something to give it more unique identity - an autoloader belt (the idea which i may got from HighFleet) "always automatically get a new missile loaded in, one by one, to always be ready to blast your foes with ROCKET BARRAGE" Got a extra synergy with Reload Mod to autoload missiles faster, reduces need for Bigger Magazine Mod and Born Ready (Reload Perk) Same overclock, About the same time to reload missiles on average, but now this ROCKET MACHINEGUN always gets loaded with at least SOMETHING, making you MUCH more flexible. Come to think of it, its like a default Lead Storm Minigun alternative, but based on projectiles. thanks for reading whatever that was :)

Jerry Rigged Boomstick please.

"barrage damage output is not great" guy is unable to use a calculator and see that it does 2x dps of ocless hurricane and one of the higest dps in the game, which is also sustained with 72 ammo mag

I never know what build to do with this guy... Every weapon of every class is "THE BEST" which one do I trust now?

5:38 I recommend a strange build if you're interested; Minelayer System with Napalm-Infused Rounds and Volatile Bullets. Mixes great horde clear with amazing single-target, just be weary of Mactera and Dreadnoughts.

is his name jay or j?

Finally , sumbody speaks the truth. Welcome to the club miner.
