Crew Setup -Offline/Bots-
Any Mask/Character, I recommend the golden ak other weapons are fine Just not the Thanatos Despite what you’re thinking It’s not worth it.
_Crew Abilities_
Quick:
Bots make a hell of a difference, The interact speed buff can save you a lot of time Fixing the drill while in swan song is a major advantage.
Inspiring:
They can inspire but They have a cooldown While 4 players have separate inspire cooldowns.
Piercing:
The Ability to shoot through armour and shields, 2 things the headless dozers have.
_Crew Boosts_
Invigorator:
50 more stamina points and 50% less Armour speed penalty.
Accelerator:
Reload 50% faster Swap weapons 50% faster, Sounds good to me.
Stockpiler:
Every 35 kills you get an extra grenade/throwable
Final Tips -Advice-
Optional
DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THESE DRILLS, it’s for a trophy/achievement it’s not worth loosing a mission over, do it once on normal for these drills then never again. No loot inside.
Docter Bag placement:
Also a good spot to defend Cloakers do spawn near the door.
Docter Bag placement #2:
Tricky spot but if placed here you can use it downstairs and upstairs (aiming down through the ground while upstairs)
Random Advice:
You can Drill those ‘extra safes’ before using the main drill which DOES start the enemy spawning.
There are 2 MAIN ‘downsides’ that each attempt at this mission has a chance to spawn with
1. Everytime you jump you get tazed for 20 seconds (If you get this restart the mission)
2. “flashing” The screen fades to black every 5 seconds (If you get this restart the mission)
There are many more From “smoke” to “random civilians” mostly cosmetic But those 2 above are game changing and should be avoided.
Killing advice, Stick a dozer with a poison arrow hit him with a Grenade launcher round to drop all his armor Mark him from a distance and hit him with a javelin, if it crits it will 1 hit him.
Holding melee charged will stop ONE Cloaker attack If you’re getting charged by 2 Cloakers keep moving after you see a hitmarker (from the counter attack skill) Charge melee again Don’t try to insta melee the 2nd cloaker you will most likely miss. When trying to revive a team mate a distance a way I Charge my melee while running through the rooms to avoid cloakers.
Keep that drill working That’s your progress meter the second the drill is not working your mission’s on pause and you’re no closer to completing At least 1 person with all the drill skills Saves you mins of anguish.
And there’s a mask or something on the top floor that has a chance to insta down you So good luck with that.

You SHOULD upgrade the drill fully – your life depends on how soon it is done. And remove everything in Revenant skill tree except the Nine Lives Aced – your tanky bots will always revive you unless the whole team is downed by a Cloakers (which is a rare situation). And that’s just a little bit of mistakes done in this build.
