In the first mission, you were wondering if you were gonna get a wave off the last egg. You can count the number of waves because it's constant. 4 eggs is 1 wave, 6 eggs is 2 waves and 8 eggs is 3 waves.
Soil I prefer the warthog but they shifted the balance of the two weapons a bit. This build with the stubby serves to set up for breach cutter lines (slowing large targets or quickly dpsing non-grouped enemies). I prefer the warthog against mactera, when using the pgl, or when playing around ammo economy. In general, not a fan of the stubby and the way it plays but it’s just very powerful and has good synergy with BC.
Question for you why do you run double turrets for engineer is it because you also run with the SMG or is there another reason? i used to run it like this but i would always run out of ammo way to quickly for the turrets and had to get the mk 2 turret
Gemini (two turrets) got a decent ammo buff that helps a lot now. I pick and choose which fights I have the turrets in to save ammo. It is a great question because it is a delicate balance still. In hard dives I will find myself running out of ammo a lot.
@@Drillz007 stubby is maybe the highest dps primary weapon in the game. Electricity is the most effective status for controlling large bugs. I would say that the warthog is a very good feeling weapon, consistent and efficient. The stubby mirrors the way I play more, I wanted to seek out threats and kill them rather than just general wave clear.
I’m using defense matrix which lowers their range of fire, so I like putting them against a wall so they don’t have a blind spot. I put them on a platform for a couple reasons. On the ground, small pieces of terrain will block their line of sight easily and it’s not always clear when that’s happening, elevating them with a platform helps reduce this. Fights get tense, the platform serves as an additional indicator of where I’m fighting and where my turrets are. This last point is also helpful in multiplayer so other players know where I’m planning on fighting.
John Youngblood both weekly deep dives will be uploaded Monday-Wednesday at noon. I have been running a little behind the last few weeks. Guides and other videos are usually on Thursday - Saturday. I have a sea of thieves video going up tomorrow! (or maybe Friday @_@)
Drawde yea occasionally without real reason, I wanna show that I’m putting them down but don’t really wanna have people sit through the set up a dozen times a stage.

Goktug that’s good to know, was never sure.
I swear you have spidy senses for some of that stuff.
Bad Gammers you spend enough time around the bugs on hoxxes, you’ll begin to think like them!
Do you prefer the stubby over the warthog? And what situations would the warthog do better?

so whats the reason behind the smg then? is that just for range?

Why do you setup your turrets the way you do? meaning putting up a platform along the wall and then setting them up.

@@milligin thanks for the info. One day I'll get good at this game. . . one day.

@@milligin oh shit! I love sea of thieves. Just hit pirate legend the other day. Can't wait for the videos
This aged poorly
@@milligin 😬
NOICE
Are you just editing out turret build times or something?
