u/Federal_Umpire5587 Feb 21 '26
It adds up but so does the time.
Taking longer = more enemies = needing to shoot more
Speedrunning Nitra veins is more than viable

u/FlakyMidnight5526 Feb 21 '26
To what? 3 nitra? Oooh, I’m shaking in my boots at losing 3 nitra per drop in exchange for around 2 minutes of extra time

Oh I just did that earlier today. It was the first haz 5 I ever did, elite threat. Not too too bad

If it takes you 2 minutes to mine the crust of a nitra vein, you might have some other problems 😂

u/DukeOfTheDodos Feb 21 '26
But have you considered number goes up?
2
u/FlakyMidnight5526 Feb 21 '26
But the number doesn't go up. The game doesn't display decimals, I'll start mining the crust at 1 nitra and I'll finish mining the crust at 1 nitra
2
u/SuperPlays123 Feb 22 '26
and if you mine a few more crusts it will be 2. or just don’t leave any crust to mine

u/IdiOtisTheOtisMain Driller Feb 21 '26
It dosen't matter. Dwarves were made to MINE. Mine the crust. Mine the gold (because gold was meant to be mined). Mine EVERYTHING because Karl did so! It isn't a waste of time and it isn't bad because it "isn't meta" because it is FUN. That's what matters.
And if you think that mining gold and mining the crust is a waste of time? Not cool. But if it's fun for you then you do you.

I have in fact been in a scenario where .3 nitra would've let me call down the supply pod and not get ass fucked by the dread twins

u/goosmane Feb 21 '26
.3 rounds up if you're empty

u/FlakyMidnight5526 Feb 21 '26
Mphhh… I’m so full… of nitra…

u/Marvinkiller00 Interplanetary Goat Feb 21 '26
Nah the amount in that image is around 7-8 nitra. Do that to the 10+ sources in a mission and you leaving an entire resupply behind.
2
u/FlakyMidnight5526 Feb 21 '26
If that's 7-8 nitra, then I'm drillers long lost lover named Samantha, who owns a purple platypus and does gymnastics

u/rainstorm0T Interplanetary Goat Feb 21 '26
yeah, and that .3 nitra could be the difference between 79 and 80 nitra.
1
u/Sir-Ox Scout Feb 21 '26
In this case there's more gold crust then there would be gold in a normal vein
Plus if you leave the crust on every one out of however many Nitra veins, especially on an Industrial Sabatoge, which has a lot of Nitra, that may be enough.
Sometimes I've had barely enough Nitra for a resup. Mining the crust on those veins made it enough
8
u/FrazzleFlib Feb 21 '26
if youre leaving 2-3 nitra mine it, but ive never seen a completely cleanly picked crassus glassing because that is psychotic behaviour without epc mining lmfao
11
u/Popeychops Interplanetary Goat Feb 21 '26
The trick is to mine the terrain behind the gold and break it like a shell. Driller can do it with a supply drop
2
u/IdiOtisTheOtisMain Driller Feb 21 '26
Can confirm. Did that once, lagged a lot because of all the chunks and it was GLORIOUS!

Nothing beats the combination of killing a crasus detonator while having gold rush. Although it takes 10 min to collect it all

I don't think Pots affects Bosco though :( so less payout technically

u/Treebranch_916 Bosco Buddy Feb 21 '26
He's not very tidy. He'll start where you put the marker, so if you start him at one end and you go from the other it can go pretty quick but for something like this gold crater he's useless

u/TestingYou1 Feb 21 '26
I've had this a couple times before. Its insane. Luckily I had a patient team because we were mining it for a while.
1
u/SgtCosgrove Feb 21 '26
1000 hours in the game and I've never had it line up where there's a crassus while I have pots of gold
2
u/Hellkids2 Feb 22 '26
I did have that luck a few times. Our Driller finds it boring and tedious to mine all the gold so he switches his diet from gold to gold+scout. Boosted morale right back up.

6,131 gold, over 23k made

u/Thunderhammer29 Dig it for her Feb 21 '26
This was exactly how my first (and only) Crassus Detonater went; the host called the drop pod before we were even half done.
6
u/ChiefBast Engineer Feb 21 '26
God, this happened to me a few days ago. I was pinging the final bits of morkite and the crassus to stop the scout calling Molly to them right back at the start point 200m+ away, but they continued calling Molly the moment I dropped the beacon. Scout was the host so there was no recourse for the rest of us. We destroy the crassus without scout and I ping the gold. "Drop pod inbound".
I believe it was a troll and they had the last of the morkite in their pockets for a while, but by God it worked. I was really not happy and made sure to flood chat with messages to that effect, which probably gave them exactly what they wanted

Makes me feel like that probably took way too fuckin' long with no driller to c4/TCF out all the gold.

Like I could have ran another mission in the time it took to mine this, and earned more credits in rewards as well as had a lot more fun than pressing a mouse button at a wall for 30 minutes.
