[@ultmateragnarok8376]

Honestly, most egg hunt missions are like that first one. The game prespawns a certain amount of _things_ when the cave generates, depending on caverns and so forth, and egg hunt's cavegen creates large caverns with very little space between them, causing them to merge into one large, esoteric and confusing room with many tunnels that all loop back on it and sometimes intersect. Quite often these caverns will cut off parts of or even the whole drop pod room, and will cut off wherever the tunnel was meant to go forcing you to usually zipline out of the spawn while dealing with six large caverns worth of prespawned swarm and stationary enemies. I could explain how rockpox works alchemically and physiologically, but much like the glyphids' relation to stone (the source of their impressive terrakinesis), it usually goes unheard. My knowledge is often silenced by outside forces.

[@nameisnttaylor]

well you've provided me with enough useful information as is. no matter how hard these forces try to stop you, they cannot take this moment away from you

Keegan must be a really great witch if he can make you crash and lose the mission just because he was feeling a bit special.

i'm writing this as i watch the video taylor i can be here for you if you need me bro i get the friends hating me vibe keegan scares me deeply anna still amazes me with how she refuses to grapple to any point that isn't directly to the point anyways the chaos is always welcomed, you helped me forget about illnesses for 13 minutes :D

glad you enjoyed the video! keegan is a scary entity, so you're certainly right to have that opinion

[@mapatay3641]

1:04 - No no, Taylor, it's not *despite* everything we've seen, it's *as confirmed with* everything we've seen. This trilogy won't just be a character arc for Anna, but for all of you, internet included.

[@koransumant6270]

Bro you're content is legit brilliance. You have a knack for storytelling. Once you've perfected DRG Tales From Hoxxes™, I'd legit love a video essay with your editing and story style. Keep up the brilliant work! P.S: wanna add that your mactera plague video had me gasping for air for a solid 4 minutes because my diaphragm kept spasming from laughter. Not even Ventolin could save me. Bless your comedy for last sending me to heaven

[@nameisnttaylor]

thank you! you're very kind for saying that and i appreciate it. and i remember you commenting about how hard you laughed on the mactera plague video, it was one of the funniest comments i'd read. i shared it with everybody. glad you're still around and watching the videos!

[@abaddonarts1129]

At 3:35 Anna did not, in fact, decide to dig into the wall or zip away, despite having been there for ten seconds (and that biome breaking into bigger holes when mining than usual). I would expect nothing less on NameisTaylor videos. A classic (and predictable) event. I appreciate your struggles in these videos and the pain these mortal enemies cause you weekly.

Rockpox spores are a key component of the Neurotoxin grenades he slings around willy-nilly. Source : trust me bro 100% real no lie On another note it's truly fascinating to see your gameplay evolve, from a naive greenbeard falling into every newbie trap to a properly paranoid lunatic scanning everything, prioritizing targets and overall displaying heightened game sense. Still a few kinks to work out but your beard is definitely graying!

A yes the witches curse, a true dwarven classic in uncoordinated pubs.

[@keanuruben835]

At 6:11, I think the Hellfire overclock for your coilgun would fit you. It has amazing crowd control & clear, and it might reduce the amount of downs in a mission (maybe). I recommend taking it with Ammo in Tier 1, Controlled Magnetic Flow for a hybrid build or Reload Speed for crowd clearing in Tier 2, Fear in Tier 3, and either Larger Radius or Electric Trail in Tier 5. Also, Fire Rate in Tier 3 for the Hurricane improves the charge time for Salvo Module.

[@nameisnttaylor]

thanks for the tip! i look forward to using the hellfire overclock, just have to unlock it first

X1212 PBM (I personally use 11212 for most missions) and 22213 Hellfire is 2nd of the most OP build in the game, first being 31222 Minelayer and Hellfire.

I liked the witch’s brew joke.

[@nameisnttaylor]

[@lowellrindler9454]

The coilgun pairs really well with big bertha, which I’m pretty sure is an OC you have. 12xx3 coilgun can cheaply lay down a bunch of trails or accurately pick off long distance targets, which covers both of big bertha’s weaknesses, area damage and accuracy. 32112 big bertha & 12123 coilgun (with ultra-magnetic coils if you have it) & cluster grenades is my setup personally, but tweak to taste

[@nameisnttaylor]

i'll give it a whirl

[@ojhat]

If you'd like to change the coilgun with no overclocks available, I think you could slightly adjust the Hurricane to 2-2-2-1-1 for that heat-burn damage instead of stun (not a significant loss of exchange), then use a very similar loadout to what you have, just changing it to 1-1-1-1-1 for that AoE-on-fire-kill potential. The ideal overclock to have to put onto the coil gun with this loadout would be hellfire, But getting Triple-Tech Chambers, The Mole, or Ultra-Magnetic Coils would not be a hinderence either. 11:27 ah, I see you have come across the dreaded horizontal cave leech. Always a fright to encounter one of these strange phenomenon.
