You've proven one dwarf could do the work of four, if we give you enough gun.

Deep Rock Galactic provides their employees with a wide variety of weapons and artifacts to help them undertake dangerous solo missions on Hoxxes IV.
For weapons, each class mod will have a chosen starting weapon, and will have the possibility to choose an additional three when reaching the levels 5, 15 and 25 during the run. The available weapons in that choice will depend on completed milestones to unlock them, as well as the available tags for the selected class mod.
Artifacts are items awarded to the dwarf throughout the run through the use of supply pods. If activated, the supply will offer a choice of three artifact to choose from, each of those providing a chance to collect more resources, or a small conditional gameplay change (more damage while standing still, for example). Artifacts can be obtained several times during the same run, stacking their effects.
Finally, a dwarf will have access to Bosco to help out during the run, and salute back enthusiastically.
The weapons of Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor are categorized through two parameters: a default class, and with tags that describe them and indicates what damage type they deal.
The tags are sorted in four categories:
- Elemental damage ( [KINETIC], [FIRE], [ELECTRIC], [COLD], [ACID] and [PLASMA] )
- Family ( [LIGHT], [MEDIUM], [HEAVY], [THROWABLE], and [CONSTRUCT] )
- Weapon type ( [PROJECTILE], [EXPLOSIVE], [DRONE] and [TURRET] )
- Firing type ( [PRECISE], [SPRAY], [AREA], [BEAM], and [LASTING] )
Please note that weapons are not required to have tags in each category, and that they can have multiple ones from the same category.
In some cases a weapon will start as [KINETIC] but can be changed to another elemental damage type via an overclock.
The choice of a specific class mod will determine the starting weapon during a dive, and the other weapons will be drawn from a pool made of the class's unlocked weapons, and of any other unlocked weapon with a tag corresponding to the chosen class mod.
Artifacts are run-specific upgrades that are obtained by completing the supply drop event. During each phase of the run, one supply drop will spawn on the map. All terrain within its radius must be dug out as indicated by a pickaxe overlay on the terrain (note: crystals and resources will not be marked with the overlay, but must still be mined).
