You don't know how long I've been waiting for people smarter than me to figure out how to *consistently* use molly to enter the void (I've tried for literal ages and still only managed it a few times). Never thought about a straight vertical tunnel, that's genius :) Super dope upload! Also really love the dig-underneath-molly-to-make-her-lower-faster strat, that's awesome. The solo player in me absolutely needs to try and combine those two strats together because that can absolutely speed up the need to collect a resup to void jump consistently haha. Cool stuff as usual. You guys are great!
Thank you! I will say - I tried the vertical tunnel glitch solo and couldn’t get it to work. So I’m not sure if it’s something that only works while in a group (and not host). We actually found out about it by complete accident. While doing the runs it happened to us several times without trying; then we realized how much time it could save if we could do it consistently. Out of a couple dozen runs Nova was able to do it every single time
@@benicopter Dang, I should have expected it but I'm still a bit bummed haha. The search for the elusive solo molly clip continues :') (side note: I love that it's another example of tech discovered accidentally by doing something completely different lol. those are my favorite techs)
😂 to be fair a developer commented on one of Ryeor’s videos stating they were aware you could drill down to the geode and left it in. I just don’t know if they were aware the mission could be exploited this much. For what it’s worth, I actually really enjoy the new mission when played as intended. I don’t foresee me doing this type of strategy for a while
On the speedrun website it would just get moved to a 'legacy' category. It has happened several times already for various missions. Most notably Elimination - when there used to only be 1 type of Dreadnought.
This is very cool, I didnt know that the barrier could be broken by engineer platforms. And also ty for your excellent pronunciation, as a person who learned English, its useful and pleasant for me to listen this
We started out basically just hoping to run into it. After discovering Scout could glitch out and teleport to the geode, Scout could ping it with a waypoint and guide driller to it every single time
Oh wow thats really smart, I wanted to ask about that too but I forgot. How does the Molly clip work is it similar to clipping into the drop pod after it lands? How does the Scout then clip back in bounds into the geode do you grapple to it from out of bounds or how does that work? I suppose a lot of those questions will be answered when I see Nova's pov. Edit: I just saw Nova's pov and I think I understand it less now 😅
@@BlackwingXElite it seems to be kind of random. When you’re sitting on top of Molly in that vertical tunnel it will just kind of “push” you out. I found it works best if you’re by the Mule legs. Once out, it should teleport you to the geode (if you’re too high it may teleport you back to the cave). If you’re close enough you can also grapple to the geode
Yep! It's insane how fast the mission can be with these skips. I'm hoping to try a Deep Dive speedrun with this strategy since it's seeded and we'd be able to plan our routes and improve the time
I do a pretty similar thing solo as scout but I first collect enough nitra for a resup that I call down in the geode to bore a tunnel through the ground so I can just boomstick back up. Not quite as insanely fast as you crackheads lmao, but for solo haz5+ you cant do it any better imo. Excellent speedrun!
Kind of hard to explain…Autogyro has a good video on drop pod clipping. Basically I try to grapple to right under where the drop pod floor will land. Once the drop pod lands, you jump up through the floor of the drop pod and should pop right in
That's awesome, not a start I'd ever attempt I don't think but still, it feels like I just watched and incredible speedrun. Also how does the drop pod falling on you not kill you and you clip through it?
Thanks! And I can’t really explain how the drop pod clip works - just happens to be a glitch in the game that a lot of speedrunners utilize to save time. It doesn’t kill you but if you position yourself incorrectly, it can push you through the bottom of the map
Is the limiting factor of reaching the geode how long it takes to drill or how long molly takes? In other words: could bringing a second driller be worth it?
More so on the Driller side. Because Scout gets there so quickly, Scout calls Molly to the geode and Molly ends up “void walking” since there is no path yet. The geode can be at various depths, too. All depends on the seed. We thought about two drillers but never tried it. I imagine the tunnel would get too crowded with players
I think with some practice drilling until almost overheating and then switching could be very efficient, though I don't know if it would save any time. If Molly just void walks there anyways, then it's questionable whether you need driller and engi to go there anyways. Scout can always kill themselves with fall damage after depositing all the seeds.
I tested it this morning at it was still working. Did you have a tunnel from the main room to the geode? You need to manually dig all the way through before depositing the seeds
You can’t see it on the map at the start and no, it’s not always directly under Molly. We dig straight down right away and then Scout glitches through the map to the geode. Once there, Scout can ping the location of the geode to guide Driller there
@@Ggahni It can be horizontal, just as long as the tunnel connects both rooms. Also, if you deposit the seeds before the tunnel is made it will not work. You have to wait until the tunnel is connected and open before depositing the seeds
tried to do this with a friend but we couldn't get it to work, regardless of if we glitched our way to the geode, or dug all the way to it with a driller and engineer, we couldn't call the drop pod even though we deposited all 7 seeds (sometimes 8) we made sure that the entrance wasn't blocked in any way, we tried from under the spawn room and from a different cave, we tried making it so only one of us grabbed and deposited all seeds and viceversa, but nothing worked are four players necessary? is it required for one player to be at the starting drop pod or something?
@@benicopter yeah, our last attempt was simply drilling all the way down and using the platforms to dig our way into the geode, and THEN grab all the seeds, there were no blockages or anything but it still didn't work
one time we also tried even calling a supply pod so a hole was made all the way from the top, we made sure to connect it to our main tunnel that connected to the spawn area but that didn't work either
Idk if you’ll see this or respond, but I see on other videos how you deposit, how and why do you do it like that? If you do see this, I wish I had the time to get this good at the game. 🎉
@@ZoomerPay oh yeah, I alternate between E and right click on the mouse (pickaxe). It can be faster than just holding E. I do have one of my videos where I setup a macro and used that, but I haven’t used a macro since.
No I don’t. It requires a lot of coordination and understanding of what’s going on. There’s a lot more to the drillevator skip than what’s shown in this video. Plus, I really like the mission the way it is intended. I don’t even foresee me doing this again for a while
The short answer: we don’t. But we do know that there’s a high likelihood of running into it because of the size of the geode. And once Scout goes out of bounds and teleports to the geode, they can ping the location and direct Driller right to it
Short answer: we don’t. Driller just starts going straight down and once Scout glitches out of the map and teleports to the geode, they can ping the location
Couple things: the geode is actually really big and you have a very good chance of running into it by digging straight down. Also, with Scout (Nova) glitching out of bounds and teleporting to the geode, she is able to ping it and guide the driller to the location.
Who needs a drillevator, we ARE the drillevator
I am shocked and amazed, also amazed and shocked. Rock and stone!
Rock and stone!
Did I hear a Rock and Stone?
For Rock and Stone!
Rock and Roll and Stone! ⛏️
Stone and Rock! Oh, wait...
I guess Deep Rock Galactic finally invested in some better equipment

Classic Beni Carrying the run. Real MVP status
😂 what’s funny is you still ended with more kills than me
@@benicopter 🤣guarding the drop pod is arguably harder LMAO
Had fun with you all on these runs! Looking forward to other future runs!
This is so cool. Thank you for the explanations too
Thank you!
If they patch anything about this mission this or a faster run might be a permanent world record

the gang back at it again with yet another insane run
Man that's insane. Good job team!
Thanks!
Love the voiceover explanation! And for taking the time to clip it all together! 🤯
Thanks! ❤️❤️
That is freaking COOL!
I love you just taking pot shots at the grunts out of boredom. What else would a scout do for 2 minutes, throw the boomerang?
But they fix this cheese.. Anyway this is insane! Rock and stone! Its never gets old!
Thanks! And I haven’t seen any patch notes or updates and it worked two nights ago 🤷🏻♂️
Management is running at your sleeping pod/apartment as we speak
Epic stuff
I honestly thought the geode was spawned in post start like how a backpack room is from a lost helmet scan
How do you know where the geode will be or is it just hoping for the right seed in which molly will drop right over the geode?
We started out basically just hoping to run into it. After discovering Scout could glitch out and teleport to the geode, Scout could ping it with a waypoint and guide driller to it every single time

Oh classic Ben amazing video. I would be proud to call you a husband
Thank you that means a lot, definitely not weird at all
10/10
would have been cool to see a pov of someone who isnt just sitting inside the drop pod but a neat concept
That's why I included an explanation as to what is happening at the end of the video. Also, two other POV's of the players are in the description
That's awesome, not a start I'd ever attempt I don't think but still, it feels like I just watched and incredible speedrun. Also how does the drop pod falling on you not kill you and you clip through it?

...I don't even know what to say other than what someone else said!
We just tried this strat we delivered the seeds to molly but nothing happens
And you dug all the way through to the geode? There has to be a connected tunnel from the geode to the the main cave
Speedrunning and exploits are forever tied together huh?
Is the limiting factor of reaching the geode how long it takes to drill or how long molly takes? In other words: could bringing a second driller be worth it?

@@Marian_DRGyou have to have a connected tunnel in order for it to work. Ryeor has a great video that goes into detail how the drillevator skip works
Ty for the recommendation, I'll look into that video.
I think they fixed it dx I got the seeds once but I still had to get the crystals
I tested it this morning at it was still working. Did you have a tunnel from the main room to the geode? You need to manually dig all the way through before depositing the seeds
what are your game settings and specs? cuz it looks so smooth
I’m pretty sure I’m maxed out on all my graphic settings. Running a 3080 card
@ Are you running any antialiasing? And dx11 or 12?
@@roger21 Anti-aliasing is set to TAA (experimental). Upscaling is off, and all other settings are on Ultra. I believe I'm on DX11
i hope they don't patch this
Me too!
Wait how do you find the geode itself? Is it always directly under molly? Can you see it on the minimap from the start?
You can’t see it on the map at the start and no, it’s not always directly under Molly. We dig straight down right away and then Scout glitches through the map to the geode. Once there, Scout can ping the location of the geode to guide Driller there
Why does sometimes I deposit the seeds but the button for the drop pod does not appear?
Do you have a direct tunnel from the cave to the geode? Both rooms need to be connected from drilling/digging
@@benicopter does it have to be fully straight?
I was the first scout and my driller and engi digged down but then they had to adjust horizontally
@@Ggahni It can be horizontal, just as long as the tunnel connects both rooms. Also, if you deposit the seeds before the tunnel is made it will not work. You have to wait until the tunnel is connected and open before depositing the seeds
@@benicopter Oh, that may be it! I will adjust and see if it works
Thanks!!!
@@Ggahni Good luck!
Well, that's worse than corestone glitch
Ehhhhh idk...that glitch was so easy - all you had to do was place a shield. At least with this one we had to coordinate and put in some effort lol

@ You like spam the deposit instead of just holding it, idk how else to describe it

How
What the actual f***
do u think all the deep scan public lobbies will eventually just be this?
No I don’t. It requires a lot of coordination and understanding of what’s going on. There’s a lot more to the drillevator skip than what’s shown in this video. Plus, I really like the mission the way it is intended. I don’t even foresee me doing this again for a while
Might be a dumb question, but how do you know the Geode is right below your drop pod?
The short answer: we don’t. But we do know that there’s a high likelihood of running into it because of the size of the geode. And once Scout goes out of bounds and teleports to the geode, they can ping the location and direct Driller right to it
How do you know where the geode is?
Short answer: we don’t. Driller just starts going straight down and once Scout glitches out of the map and teleports to the geode, they can ping the location
How do the three players die? I'm guessing Driller just C4's everyone?
Yeah, you can see it in their POV’s which are linked in the description
But how did you know the geode was there?
They reset over and over until it happens to he under the drop pod spawn
Couple things: the geode is actually really big and you have a very good chance of running into it by digging straight down. Also, with Scout (Nova) glitching out of bounds and teleporting to the geode, she is able to ping it and guide the driller to the location.
Why drop pod don't fly away?
It only leaves once every player steps out of the drop pod. If you stay in there it won’t leave
wtffff
Disgusting 🤮
