Solo Falconer D-04 6-Stage Facility (No Commentary) | "Infernal Pocket" | DRG: Rogue Core

1 million total damage! 3 stacks of Blood Rush, big explosions from 3 stacks of BYD, and of course the ol' shock drone to clean everything up. Overall a great run. Between her shock drone and Cooper, Falconer seems like a very self-sufficient reclaimer for solo runs. Vigor Charger and Steadfast Surge allowed for very good drone uptime. Random stuff: 1. Great Shock Charger at the start of the run. Mag size and charge rate meant big damage right out of the gate. The ice damage upgrade from later on plus Blood Rush also let it freeze pretty much anything in a single shot. Ricochet chance is also a very important upgrade for it, since being able to hit more enemies per shot gives you more bang for your buck. 2. I was a little sad when I saw the Elementalist artifact, since I really like it but I don't think it works with Shock Charger as it technically doesn't reload or overheat. 3. I think the Poison Aura clouds are to blame for the high total damage at the end of the run. They're a little buggy and seem to take damage somehow from AoEs such as Wayward Spark impact and BYD explosions. 4. The BYD explosions from killing enemies near the Ramok absolutely decimated its first health bar. Wish I was turned around to see the damage numbers. Also, speaking of the Ramok, you can kind of surf the vacuum hitbox it creates while spinning and orbit it without getting pulled into the middle. 5. Once again, two sources of cryo and no expenite bulk. :( 6. One strategy that has been working for me is to move on to the next cave when a swarm starts instead of trying to clear it before going. Corespawn tend to spread out during a swarm, as opposed to the glyphids who tend to charge at you in a horde, and the tunnels act as a natural chokepoint that you can take heavy advantage of. Ranged enemies also tend to not follow you in. They kind of hover around the entrance to the tunnel trying to get a good angle to shoot you from, and in doing so they group themselves up with all of the other enemies chasing you into the tunnel, making the whole swarm very vulnerable to AoE. Very handy especially if solo. Thanks for watching!
