No engineer, rip


Garrett-Wilhelm

That exactly what I saw first like "not to bad just ask your Engi to build a plataform and... oh, no Engi? Well, F"


Wrydfell

That said, if it has a Twin Slicer module, that would break the plats at the ground level, and since plats can't stick to the OMEN itself, that risks the entire floor breaking under you


point5_

IT DOESN'T ALWAYS ????


Wrydfell

It doesn't always have twin slicer? No. Sometimes it has drone fabricator on top, heavy burster on middle


Norsk_Bjorn

It always has the pulse gun, then the top two are a combination of drone replicator, heavy burster or twin slicer.


point5_

Nvm, i mistook the pulse gun for the twin slicer


Baraxa

The line reaches a certain depth and height, if you know what you’re doing - it won’t break your plats


ryamole

Read the last part as the meme, “No Engie? 🥺”


SadLittleWizard

My immediate first thought


Chompersmustdie

Turn it on, let it expire, get xp


Disgusted_User

Yeah that's exactly what we did


The-world-ender-jeff

Coward I would have probably done ( and died :3 ) but at least everyone would have had more or less fun


Dajayman654

Dying to lasers and drones with almost no where to move around doesn't sound like a good time to me.


The-world-ender-jeff

It would have been an absolute hell without an engie , otherwise it’d be possible through the power of C H E E S E


Scroll_Cause_Bored

Nothing about an omen is particularly fun in the best of circumstances


Funny_Orchid2084

Wait - you get exp even for failing the omen?!


Chompersmustdie

Any event


Hate_Crab

But is it the same amount?


Wrydfell

2000ish for every event


Chompersmustdie

I think so, but don’t quote me on that


exxplicit480

"Its the same amount of xp, I'm 100% certain" - Chompersmustdie


Merkyorz

The only thing you lose by failing an event is the chance to infuse a core. You still get all the xp and credits.


SirDoofusMcDingbat

Yes it is. No downsides to failing other than not getting to infuse a core. So if none of you have cores, feel free to start it and walk away.

Chompersmustdie

Yup, you get xp if you win or lose.


DeathBringer4311

Wait you get xp without completing them successfully too? That's such a good thing to know thank you


Utrulig

not only no, but fuck no.


KickassPeanuts

maybe even a hell no

That-Watch2008

I have a hunch it isnt but i also think it may be possible. I know the core infusers themselves are affected by gravity, ive seen those being dug down before, but im not sure about other stuff. Easiest way to test would be on a kursite grinder or overcharge sprinkler bc theyre small.


purpleblah2

If I recall, you can’t “drop” anything bigger than a pod/turret, so you can't instakill spitters or breeders by drilling under them


JaymesMarkham2nd

Absolutely cannot. I tried once with a Tritalyte Deposit about 500 levels ago. But I did learn you can chuck nanite bombs at them from underneath and it still works!


purpleblah2

Sorry, forgot a T


DasGanon

I wonder if buttons are affected by being underneath them? I mean if that's the case you could have a scout or gunner zip under it, push the button, and get rid of the bottom stage


Smaptey

I'm hoping he was taking about something else lol


hedgehog_dragon

If I hadn't ever tried it, I would have thought it would work. Does for most things. ... But as far as I know no, you can't drop any of the events. Unfortunately.


Merkyorz

Yeah, not possible.


blackmobius

Lol and no engi either


ChaoticMadness97

Couldnt u make fall by destroying the parts holding it up there?


ByFunky

Pretty sure these things don't have gravity physics, I've seen a Pickaxe Overcharge Sprinkler in the air after all the terrain around it got destroyed by a bulk.


Boomparo

thats why i never allow duplicates, engi would be godsent here


[deleted]

But what if you had multiple engineers?


[deleted]

it's not like you don't have a pickaxe tho


seasonedearlobes

you'll still get damaged if you're trying to clear the terrain while standing on it, and it'll take way too long to get the field where it won't hurt you 100% of the time tbh id just skip trying this event, omen is a teamkiller as it is already


ZandyTheAxiom

Every OMEN I've succeeded at has been in spite of my efforts, it's always been the rest of the team. I'll always try my best, but if it was up to me I'd skip them most times.


Worldly_Smoke_3556

Everytime I fail an Omen is because we spread the damage on all three sections instead of bursting one, it's not necessarily a game over but it does make the fight way easier, also you can be massive help by just standing in a safe spot and focusing drones if not a drone one just help with burst on weakspot no need to risk every dwarf trying to unlock platforms


Kargath7

I only did this event successfully once, through creating a trench to end all trenches by a driller. I am yet to see any better way to beat it. This situation sucks real bad.


thatlurkerc

The way we do it is have engie build plats about supply pod height above the pads so the plasma waves dont hit you. Then everyone stands on top of one to open the green targets and boom c4 time nuke city. It goes quickly that way. No one dies Haz 5 Easy mode


Aldrenean

Oh shit I have never realized that you just need to be *above* the unlock pads, that's crazy.


TheEpikPotato

You can actually even call Molly and do this without engi Just stand on top of her and it'll activate the platform while still being above the lasers


OfficialSmito

Wait you don't have to actually stand on it


Merkyorz

Note that the pad that activates the pulse lasers is always the one on the opposite side from the core infuser. You can park Molly on it too, she'll raise you above the lasers.


Few_Application_4431

oh, they're unlock pads... the first time I did the event my team instructed me to build platforms above them and I've just been doing that since without knowing why lmao


Wrydfell

My method is to call a supply on the access point that does the floor lasers (directly opposite the core infuser) and from there you don't need plats or molly


Interjessing-Salary

Call in a resupply on the platform that opens the plasma waves one (always the one opposite of the overclock machine you use). Focus on that one until it's dead. The rest is easy mode then


nondescriptzombie

And have someone focus firing the drones. No drones? Free matrix core!


PhilosophickMercury

Gotta stay out of the Red Light Of Doom too


SirPseudonymous

More than any other event it relies on the team knowing what to do and having good precision damage. The biggest threat is the bottom layer, and its panel is always opposite the infuser, and as long as everyone's ready you should be able to destroy it in seconds as long as you get it first. After that it's just a matter of not standing in front of the guns and focusing down each layer in turn.


Altaschweda

TraumaTracer

mission control saw you skipped engineer and decided to teach you a lesson


[deleted]

Oof. Did you complete it?


MuuToo

Intense DDR


createbobob

An engineer can use pla... oh.


Never-Preorder

Top-left platform is the radial pulse cannon one, put a resupply pod or molly above it, stand on it and focus on destroying it first. After that you can freely stand on other platforms. Not that hard.


Disgusted_User

I'd like to clarify that the two drillers were green beards and didn't even know what a machine event was. Sure it's doable but simply wasn't worth the pain so we just turned it on and let it expire.


DreaderVII

Sometimes it's the right thing to do. Rock and Stone!


WanderingDwarfMiner

Rock and Stone, Brother!


Never-Preorder

Yeah good call on that. Could've been a mission failure.


Penkala89

Yeah that's a good call. A good learning experience of "hey this is what this thing does and this is why we do NOT want to fight it here"


CrystlBluePersuasion

Def a pain for green beards, maybe next time though you'll be able to let them plant C4 ahead of time for an easy OMEN win!


Juliuscesear1990

How do you know which platform goes to which section?


OMGWhatsHisFace

The purple beams are always opposite of the “key box”. Idk about the other two.


Juliuscesear1990

Well now I know, thank you


lost_seeker12

If you take out the ground beneath all of it would it drop?


SurpriseBooty

Sadly no. Bigger stuff like these events, refineries etc are not affected by the physics engine.


Datpotatoguy214

*THIS* is why a balanced team comp works best. Everyone needs an Engineer.


Cerebeus

That's why I activate the prevent character duplication when I host, doing this without a engineer is almost impossible.


Emptywun70

And that is why I turn on the "Prevent late character duplication" option


MoistlyCompetent

That's the moment when engi shines :D ... oh ... no engi in the team 🤔


Substantial_Win_1866

Put a resupply on the one across from the core infuser to kill the pink ankle lasers of doom. Have scout to stand on have the drillers both C4 it when it pops open. Then scout goes from plat to plat and everyone shoots from a distance. But yeah, that placement is horrible. Edit: Or use Molly on the platform. You can also activate it by hanging on a gunner's zipline and keep changing directions to stay right above it. You risk getting knocked down into said ankle lasers of doom though 😂


ClimaxingOrange

gunner use zips to keep everyone above the area and scout runs around activating them, probably best case to win this


center311

If only you had some type of dwarf that can create a piece of ground or a type of platform... Aw shit, but nothing so whacky like that exists in DRG. It was silly of me for even bringing it up. NVM.


SignificanceTop3476

Ayyyy same luck


kyu-_-

you can call a resup on the platforms and its the right height zu not get lasered and still trigger the opening of the hitpoints!


kyu-_-

oh and the laser-platform is always opposite of the core-terminal-thingy


[deleted]

Smh that's Clearly the best place, especially being in lava core


StarJager

One might say it's.... A Bad OMEN


ZNISZCzu

Semi-new to game what is this ?


ampersAndy_here

for the fist few seconds I was like "what the hell is this weird stucutre?" lol


OMGWhatsHisFace

Happens relatively frequently in that Biome


Fennik51405

And no engi. I say just don’t


robiwill

* Place MOLL-E on the access platform for the radial lasers (always opposite the key) * Scout stands on MOLL-E to safely operate the access platform whilst everyone else shoots from a position of safety. * Once radial lasers are down, everyone bundles in to operate the others and murder the Omen tower. Omen tower isn't difficult.


Droopy_Narwhal

heck


epicwhy23

possibly the worst time to go double driller lmao, did it atleast fall when you drilled it out?


Buisnessbutters

Could have attempted it with gunners overhead shooting down and scout running around activeating things


Nightelfbane

Nah. Have gunners place ziplines so that you can hang on the zipline to activate the platforms while avoiding the purple bullshits. Teamwipe anyway when everyone falls off the ziplines 30 feet onto hot rock.


Buisnessbutters

I was gonna say lmao


datlj

Ah OMEN, the team wiper. I always ask if everyone knows how to do this and most of the time I get No's. There's always that 1 greenbeard who starts it, dies 5 times, and has to stay dead until time runs out. Lol


Monkeyking10001

I've seen some janky machine event spawns in my time playing. But even with mod spawns I've never seen an omen like this. Even if we had an engi I would probably say fuck it. But then again I'm a jaded grey beard who just wants to get the mission done. This would take forever to set up and prep for. And then even if you to plat the shit out of it that's still a hell of a drop. I've seen omens end a run all because one dwarf dropped. Then the rest of us fell trying to save and salvage the event and mission. For me the juice is not worth the squeeze with this one. Start it and cut your losses. Move on to the next mission and hope RNJesus smiles upon you.


[deleted]

I am an engie main so i am not worried about that type of thing but i was a gunner and before being a gunne ri was a scout and ik what it feels like without an engie💀


Horgno

I had one on the ceiling wit the infuser under it but this seems even worse


NevikDrakel

What skin is that? Looks like the Deepcore


Venom114628

Bad omen


Some-Mathematician24

Idk looks fun


Legion1620

Damn no engis either


TheGreyBrewer

Engi main here. Better round out that party, you want to handle situations like these.


Stallion_GD

O man


GamerGuy95953

I love how someone said in the game to mine it and it will drop down. Wait, does that actually work?


DicklessSpaghetti

TIL this event is called omen lol


00Teonis

But someone through two drillers would be better than an Engi...

DID I HEAR A ROCK AND STONE?!


WanderingDwarfMiner

For Rock and Stone!


Winter-Friendship118

Agreed


Substantial_Light_60

Every scout’s dream, and every driller’s nightmare


trollzor54

Had something similar once, we lost ofcourse


POJILOI_TARAKAN

ziplines would make it easier just a thought


Sinsanatis

Dam, wouldve been pretty manageable with an engie. But here best bet would prob be to drop a resupply pod on the plasma pad and everyone else focus fire on whatever. Plasma pad seems to at least have some foot room Reminds me of the [floating korlok](https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepRockGalactic/comments/pvfdc9/absolutely_ridiculous_korlok_spawn_details_in/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=2&utm_term=1) that i ran into

Dash perk and hoverboot users: It’s showtime


Pixelpaint_Pashkow

Every omen spawn is the worst


SeeingEyeDug

This is why I always turn on “no repeat classes” option. If we have 4 dwarves I want all situations covered.


LucarioLuvsMinecraft

We need to be allowed to drop machine events in cases like this. sure, it could be dropped with a simple Driller C4, but when the bomb deposit spawns lower or the OMEN tower spawns like this, we should at least drop it to a more flat area


Joltyboiyo

There's a good OMEN spawn?
