Remember, this guide could be affected by you! All you simply have to do is type in @(Section) (Tip[s]) and whatever you put in there, if has to do with Deep Rock and I don't have it, I will put into the guide and credit you! You could become one of the top contributers! All you have to do is die (in the game)! In this guide, I will be covering multiple ways to die, by friends, foe, falls, foe, explosives, foe, beer, and foe. I will develope multiple sections and if you want, you can contribute to a section that isn't there or one that already exists! I will add the section for you, so that people can know how observant you are!

"Yo, Johnney!" "Yeah bob?" "I need you to flamethrower this crowd!" "Oh, sure thing bob." *Walks over, starts burning everything* "Okay! Johnny you can-" *Character says, "Watch where you are shooting you blindsided pig! Agh! Argh!"* "Johnny you can-" *Character blows up* Bob: -_-. Exactly my case! I was working with some of my friends and all of the sudden the driller starts burning me, not realizing my mic spammed screams over Discord, and continued on to finish me next to a dreadnaught... you can already guessed what happened beyond then. Some common ways to die by these, is to have Driller burn you... Scout shove you off a cliff by grappling onto that small concpicous ledge you just so happened to be standing on. Engineer just happens to cut you in half with his plasma cutter, along with the rest of the wave. Engineer platforms for you next to a leech. Your friends SUCK at aiming and hit ONLY YOU while you are being eaten by a leech. Engineer takes matters into his own hands when your being attacked by a leech and shotguns you to death. Mactera Grabber grabs you, your friends shoot you in his arms, they everywhere except for the grabber. Your friends shoot the mactera grabber while you are over a cliff. Your friends can push you off a zipline and make you fall straight to your demise. After that, we simply have a friend who trolls you and constantly pranks you. We also have those who simply shoot you off a cliff by or for real an accident! Well this is all I have for this section, type @CF (tip) in order to lend me a tip! Don't forget, I will credit you!

I don't have a skit for this one so... One way to die uncommonly by your friend is to have the Engineer's turrets shoot you down. That almost never happens! Then there is the Engineer cutting EVERYONE down with his plasma cutter. Another uncommon way to die is have your friends blow you up inside the shuttle before you leave, it happened to me three times. ANOTHER uncommon way to die by your friends is to have the Engineer platform you into the wall while a swarm is coming (I did that once to one of my poor friends). Jump down a cliff, "for some odd reason," then realize the shaft is longer than you thought. Have the driller drill your face off is also a possibility. When you are frozen into a block of ice, have the driller drill you or your friends "shoot you out." Or have the driller "melt the ice off" with his one million degree flamethrower.
This handy bit of information was brought to you by: Cerasza. They stated:

"As a Gunner, throwing a sticky grenade during an intense battle in the Sandblasted Corridors, not realizing that a hard-to-see swarm of bees managed to collectively grab hold of it and, out of the kindness of their tiny little bee hearts, decided to return your lost item."

Yeah, this one was short! Have another one? Go ahead and comment @UCF (Tip[s]) and I will credit you!

*next round occurs, Bob is next to Johnny, a preatorian is to the left of Bob and Johnny is to his right. Johnny turns to face where Bob was and starts burning the preatorian, while bob is off somewhere doing something I can't think of right now!* Ya see? There is always a way to deflect death by friends! One good one is, never be infront of the Driller, It protects you from being burned, always check to see where the driller is facing, ensure it isn't you! The Driller has a big scary bomb that you think you shouldn't be afraid of? You should be afraid of everything the driller has. He will frigg'n tear you to bits with anything he owns, particularly his C4. Just don't be in it's red-sphere of betrayal. Just don't even look at the thing. (After you have avoided it, of course.)

Another way not to die by friends is to, not be on concpicous ledges, if they are suspicious of safety just leave them! Besides, the scout should be scouting them! That's why they have the grappling hook! Doing this saves you from falling to your demise from your friends! Another way to survive not being shot off a cliff is to always have your friends go first! ANOTHER way to avoid being shot by friends is to, either kick the noob aims and tell them to practice on their own terms or, kick the troll! Who knows maybe that "noob" gunner of yours was really a troll! These are all the ways I have for this section. Have an idea? go ahead and comment @CAF (Tip[s]) and I will credit you!

Alright now this is where it can get, very, very, very, very, very, very, and very tricky. There is a simple way to avoid Uncommon things! So, you can avoid death by cliffs simply by, throwing a flare at every cliff to remind you of it's height and that it's a cliff! Another way to avoid death by Engineer turrets is, never to walk infront of them, or have the Engineer put them in a more "practical" place. Another way not to get platformed by an Engineer is to, make sure they only put platforms where you tell them, or where not to, and to make them tell you where they are putting platforms before firing. For a driller, tell them either to "Drill only preatorians or walls, or be kicked!" I have ran out for this one as well, go ahead and comment @UCAF (Tip[s]) to get me to put your tips here and credit you!

*I am currently protecting the traingulation area on a salvage mission, the Driller and scout are ahead of me* "Yo, willy!" "Yeah Bobby?" "Put turret here." "Alrighty then." *Team fortress two reference* *Puts the turret there, bobby pulls out his little anti-gravity/matter/whatever it's called gun out and shoots at a preatorian.* *I blow up.* You see, the cause of death can also be from attachments. However there is no "Common" or "Uncommon" way to die from this so... it's comjumbled together. The way that was demonstrated in the skit was that, the weapon he uses shoots orbs that blow up and deal massive damage. Well, one of his attachments increased the radius of damage, he also bought SO MANY OF THESE and so the orb was HUGE. Only problem was, the preatorian was next to me, maybe a little further from me. So Bobby shot his HUGE orb and it just goes CABLOOSHKY, CABLAMO, CABLOB on meh face. The preatorian wasn't even touched! SO I died for no reason. Another way to die by attachments is to have the extra damage on and shoot your friend. Have any information on this subject? Go ahead and comment @DBF (Tip[s]) and I will credit you for your nerdy knowledge!

One: Mactera spawn could sneak up on you and kill you because you didn't see it coming until you had acid on your face. Two: Mactera spawn could sneak up on you, but you jump off a cliff out of surprise. Three: Mactera spawn could kill you... nuff said. Four: Mactera Spawn swarm you... nuff said. Five: Mactera exploder, or whatever it's called can simply blow you to Kindom Come. Six: Mactera exploders and spawn can swarm you. Seven: Mactera grabbers send you off a cliff. Eight: Mactera (in general) chase you into a leech. Nine: Mactera seperate you from your group and send you in with other Glyphids. Ten: A mactera freezes you in the Strata and you die from either Glyphids or more mactera. Eleven: Mactera spawn can catch you off guard while you are frozen in a blizzard, same goes for Mactera grabbers. I'm out of ideas, you know the drill @DBM (Tip[s]) and I will credit you!

Yeah, yeah, this is the problem with mactera... is there is no way of how to always stop them from getting you. They're just that big of a pain! However, the only logical way of stopping them from getting you, is to memorize the noises they make. They always make a noise upon being spawned. Each one makes a distinctly different noise. Whenever you hear their noise just turn around and blast em' or look around. BUT WHETEVER YOU DO, JUST FORGET WHAT YOU WERE DOING AND FIND EM'. Oh, you bright minds, do you have an idea or tip? Comment @ADM (Tip[s]) and I will credit ya!

We all know how we can die by glyphids, but how do we fight them is the question? Well, thats' why we're here! By we I mean, us, those who contribute and myself. A good way to fight Glyphids is, during an escort (someone is holding a crystal and requires protection or some other thing that is when someone is carrying something and can't defend themselves or you are just travelling) have the driller be crowd control (the man on the front lines) and use their flamethrower to burn the glyphids. When being swarmed by glyphid spawn, (the little ones) simply use a pickaxe with upraged damage, don't waste the bullets! When fighting a swarm of basic warriors and some veterans, blow them up if you can, by having the Engineer use his grenade laucnher or somehow time a grenage correctly. You can even have the Driller help with the fight! Always be aware of your surroundings! Make sure when you are running away, that you don't run into leeches, or off a cliffside. Also make sure that they aren't sneaking up on you! Have any ways? Comment @FG (Tip[s]) and I will credit you.

Okay, I felt the need for this to be addressed. All games have an introduction to a boss, or a simple device or opponent to fill the void between each of the designated boss-battles. Though this game doesn't have many, I felt I needed to at least get a section going before they add very many, negating 50% of the work! Now, how many of you know, fought, and fear demi-bosses? *Gaming army raises hands* Guessed as much... many games use these as plot devices or contributing factors to thus enhance your game-play experience, feeling good about the game as if your character fought an army and you played a key role in that conflict is key to a good community of players as well as drawing in new, and veteran players. Now, this game doesn't have too many, but they are still a part of the game today.
When the game was first released, I remember there being only one demi-boss that was dreaded amongst any of the miners that had sealed their positions within Deep Rock Galactic... the classical praetorian. This foe was huge in comparison to all those you were combating from the start. Many would quake in their boots as they would stare into the face of death. This monstrosity would leave behind mutilated bodies and many ruins in it's wake, even before it began hurling acid. Now a days, it continues it's legacy of dread and animosity for it. Though, it's grasp over the control of our miners has weakened with the year of it's existence. This creature can currently do: "Acid Spew," as I call it, in which, it will proceed to cover you and your friends with a disgustingly viscus fluid that deals poison damage. Good for you engineers! It can also do it's famous, "Face Chomp," in which it will try to devour your face with a swift swipe of it's gaping maw. It also can do further attack of, "Two-legged Stomp," where it will swing both of it's front legs at you, not so easy to dodge is it? It also has a lasting affect of it's after decease in which I call, "Remnants of War," where acid fumes will bloom within a certain radius of the praetorian's corpse. The praetorian has an exoskeleton much like a crab, using it as defense against invaders (you). It's weak points are, the face (durr), and it sack o' poison. Suggested tactics: "Split," AKA have the engineer use the plasma cutter to eradicate any of it's shielding and reduce it's health by a good three (and a half) quarters.
Ah, the green also viscus fluid. This demi-boss has plated armor all over it's body, but doesn't cover it's eyes and two sacks o' weird stuff that you probably wouldn't want to identify under a microscope. The goo bombers attacks go to the extent of, "Spit of wonders, as in, I wonder what tf it just covered me with." In this attack, it spits it weird goop at you and slows you down, dealing some poison damage, but mostly aims to incapacitate you. nuff said. The goo bomber also has it's own variation of, "Remnants of War," but I deemed, "Suicide dive." In the "Suicide dive," the bomber will spin in many directions, spewing it's goop from it's sack o' weird stuff (depending if you hadn't destroyed them before killing the creature) and will take a tumble through the ground upon making contact ere exploding into oblivion. Suggested tactics: "Focus Fire," mainly just on it's sack o' mystery.
These ferocious beast at first glance are adorably bundled up into a big mass, but shortly after approaching it, it will unravel revealing one of the most unholy sights you have ever beheld. The creature with then use it's one attack that I have deemed: "It's cheap one attack," in which it will spit a big acid ball dealing explosive damage to a certain radius of it's contact point, as well as damaging some of the surrounding area. The creatures health overall is plentiful, but will start dropping as soon as you focus fire on the glowing ball located below it's head. I just over all suggest to: "Split" and or just have the engineer focus fire on the one area with his plasma cutter.
Think I missed out on any? Go ahead and comment, @DB (You so stuuuuupud chu firgut that chur own friends be another demi-busss all on dey own.) or something along those lines... just correct me m'kay? Nuff said.

"Ohmehgerd! Guys, look at this!" My "good ol' friend" Bobby shouted. "There's this thing that has these two other things with things on those things an-" "Bobbs." I said, cutting him off. "What?" He borked back. "What defrick are you talking about?" A sudden highlight shows up nearby, in the shape of a large device holding two bulbs on it's sides... "I'ma go take a look." I said, volunteering.

Interesting introduction right? (I know I suck at putting something good to reel people in.) Too bad, it will be continued in another section, as of right now we have other matters to discuss. One of the games most infamous additions were the including of Dreadnaughts. These big motha' truckas really give you something hard to chew on. Upon first release, these dorky creatures hardly seemed like a menace, with it's health system being much like yours with a regenerating shield, was easily negated by veteran miners-as well as some lower ranks too. Eventually they evolved to be something a lot more powerful, with an almost invulnerable shield, it can't be perforated by simple weaponry-specifically the bane of a plasma cutter. The exoskeleton of these large dinguses will often regenerate within mere seconds, leaving little to no time to cease fire. With these guys, you have to not stop shooting and throwing explosives 'til the shield has been completely wiped from existence. Leaving your job to be much easier. So always leave a resupply nearby, with already stocked supplies on each person.




I approach the ominous machine, it suddenly sparks to life, quickly spinning around and instantly firing grenades. "WHHHHHAAAAT THHHHHEEEEEEEE-" I quickly spin around only to take a step off into a dark abyss, leading to my demise. The combat adapted M.U.L.E and or, "Bet-C," is a high-risk, high-reward scenario, the most recent addition to the game's MOBs but a great one at that. With this being, you could become an ultimate threat to any foe unlucky enough to cross your path. This comes at the cost of combating it. When you stumble across it at first, it will be down on the ground and glowing. After approaching or firing at it, it will sputter into life and mow you down within mere moments. You don't shoot the device itself, but more so the spores that are located on it's sides. After defeating it, it will short circuit and fall down on it's stomach-ready to be repaired. Grenades aren't suggested in this conflict, but more so, dark matter blasters and standard issue weaponry (anything not explosive, or doesn't take long to reach the intended target, if you have any non-standard issue weaponry but still fire fast and are combat efficient, will be sufficient.)

Did I miss out on any bosses, or do you have boss suggestions? Go ahead and prove me wrong and comment on it! @Bosses (Chu stuuuupuud agun! Anoter buss are chur feinds becuse dey shoot ya down in momunts! So yeahhhhh you stuuuuupud!) Or anything that is actually helpful...
