Edit again: Coilgun got changed pretty extensively on the 2023 november maintenance patch. See here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fqGetsaEo8XIgpM.htmlsi=8nCE7W9HPlof7Fmp&t=364 Edit: Trail damage has changed a bit, as well as buffs to the fear and necrothermal mods. See here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hqJ_3LeLlKaYZLA.html Updated and more indepth info on overcharger: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gJWGxdmlk6uxhZM.html It turns out you don't need the damage up mod to oneshot trijaws, because coilgun does 20% fire damage. A couple things that comments here have reminded me of: -Partial charges with mole do "work", in that you get the bonus. But your shot gets divided by the partial charge afterwards, so the damage still winds up small and you don't really want to do it. ex: If you shoot a 1/4th charge, you get 130+150=280, and then that's divided by 4 to 70. -T5B does make the hellfire trail bigger, but you may very well want to take the electric trail instead for more DoT and slow. The main reason I used T5B with hellfire is because I wanted to demonstrate the 'normal' rate of damage of hellfire without stacking another DoT on top, though I forgot to mention this. I do think the choice between a bigger AoE and elec is pretty competitive on hellfire though, unlike the base gun where elec is pretty handily better.

It's pretty sweet being able to lay down what is effectively a shield wall for 10 ammo when necessary. Without reload mod I consider "Born Ready" necessary but I tend to fight in the thick of it so I feel every single second of a reload. Even without Partial charge, HellFire is pretty efficient already as I'm not having any issue on that front in Haz5 but it's hard not to appreciate that saved ammo and the flexibility of being to apply a really cheap electric shield wall+stun/fear proc quickly.

I wasn't really "feeling" this gun, but I might give it another shot now that I know how all the upgrades/etc stack up on it. I don't have the time to test all that out myself, so it's nice to see it "in action" in a video, explaining what each mod on it does and why you'd want to take it over others, etc.

I definitely need to try the platform stack cheese on eliminations now. Especially since you can use the mole's penetration to long distance trigger the fights by burrowing to the cocoons.

As a big fan of Big Bertha, definitely going to try out your setup with it! Looks like a ton of fun! I must say though, a little disappointed we didn't get another single target OC other than Mole. It'd be nice to have a mega cannon in the pocket to delete dreads without needing to build cheesecakes first.

I've been trying out hellfire with overcharger and the electric trail to squeeze out as much damage as possible against single targets (still took the ammo upgrade tho), and it went a lot better than I expected. While actually killing them takes a while compared to something dedicated to a single target, I find it really good in situations where you have a mix of creature sizes coming at you. Aim the shot itself at the big guy, and the fire/electric will take care of the small ones, which will buy you the time you need. Additionally, it still stays competitive in ammo efficiency against isolated large creatures, let alone when you can collat them. I previously used burst pistol with lead spray and often found myself having either way too much or not nearly enough ammo and end up wasting a lot of ammo for one gun when I need to restock the other one. With hellfire, I'm in that no-ammo wasted sweet spot fairly consistently.

Hello LazyMaybe, this is the very first video from you that I watched, followed by Nemesis Combat Strategies trilogy. These benchmark/analysis videos of yours are extremely helpful and deeply appreciated. Thank you so much, rock and stone! ⛏️

Watched a few of your videos, your taste in games and bgm is excellent.

Coil gun turns Gunner into a supportive juggernaut. Especially with the mole. Anytime I see my friend's silhouette during a swarm, every now and again, I'll shoot it behind where they're running, and hear the pleasant sound of bugs getting hit and running in fear.

quick thing with hellfire: the trail radius buff applies at any charge. this means that you can very cheaply get out the AOE stun and electric effects, which is still really useful if you are only dealing with swarmer, nanocytes, and even shredder drones to an extent. it also lets you use it more comfortably for HVT killing, since you don't have to waste full charges on web spitters.

Very insightful! Completely changed my mind on the Coil Gun, would love more in depth videos with commentary like this on the other new secondaries

I just used the burning hell/ triple tech chambers loadout on an elite deep dive and it was the most fun I've had playing this game in a while, thank you for making this video and I'll be sure to watch your other works!

Definitely think we should be pairing up these new secondaries with the last new weapons in order to see what the uses for them are. And I think you nailed it here. The coil gun is a Jack of all trades like the Hurricane and is meant to pair up with each other to get some of the best kind of results. Other than that, it’s a support tool we did not manage to come across until now and is helpful in certain circumstances. This that might require the enemies slowed, burned, or fear that would get your fellow dwarves out of a pickle. And this video can really help demonstrate the actual goal of this gun instead of what the community thinks it should be.

I recently uploaded a solo edd using hellfire. I used necro-thermal catalyst on tier 5. And paired it with incendiary nades. It's very useful on mobs of glyphids. If you play it correctly, you constantly are spamming fire bombs in clusters of enemies. It's badass.

That's the core of what I call my "Safety Tank" build is. Combat Mobility on Autocannon gives it a faster spin up time, pair that with the spin up time tier mod, and the damage reduction mod and you get 50% damage reduction literally as soon as you fire that first shot. I take The Mole on the Coil Gun as its gimmick is inherently defensive, and again, as soon as you left click you get 50% damage reduction. For grenades I use the Sticky, you get 6 of them so its easier to justify chucking indiscriminately, and it does have a chance to Fear enemies, another defensive mitigation. It's a conservative style of gameplay, but its very much a "idk what's down there, so I want to be ready for anything" build, and it works very well.

Thanks for covering this bizarre gunner secondary. I came to the same conclusions as you during beta and thought it would work well with Crit Rocket builds. I think the weapon itself is too prohibitive with it's single-shot and straight trails though. It feels like there's not many ways to utilize this weapon aside from saving you ammo vs crowds or bursting down a medium-hp target.

Thanks for the video!

Been loving the analytical content- mostly because I like knowing what's good to do and use in games and experimenting is boring because I lose a lot when I'm doing that.

I get the feeling the Coil Gun and the Wave Cooker have the potential to create incredible team synergy between the Gunner and Driller. Two scenarios that come to mind: 1) Hellfire Coil Gun, followed by Diffusion Ray Wave Cooker +T5c 2) Gamma Contamination Wave Cooker, followed by Re-atomizer Coil Gun

I've been using the triple shot OC with minelayer hurricane, and I have to say the CC electric fields pair *really* well with the mine arming time. It has a similar synergy as the big Bertha.

Great in depth video. Personaly i prefer helfire with electric trail and controled magnetic flow as it is useful to every situation.. Helfire's increased trail range works wonders with fast electric trail shots, while charging it all the way, lights everytning up, while keeping them at bay. Amazing weapon, i hope it wont get nerfed

Using burning hell hellfire as my main build rn. The secondary with overcharger and the electric trail is decent against large enemies and the flamethrower minigun is, well, a flamethrower minigun, so I can pretty much use either weapon against any enemy. It's a great change of pace from having the designated AoE and single target weapon. Also, if people ask what I'm using, I get to say "burning hellfire," which is epic.

Thanks for helping me understand this oddball gun

good shit as usual. looking forward to the crossbow vid cause I don't understand how to use that thing effectively (outside of bodkin)

Initial stun with fire and electric trail AoE from a single source... the other combinations you can add to that to synergize with other classes seem insane. Cryo from driller and scout for temperature shock shenanigans... and the damage buffs engie gets from electrified enemies just to name a few that i can think of.

Night Walker, excellent choice.

I strongly recommend trying out a 222?3 build with the ammo overclock. It makes the gun more of a support tool that terrorise groups of glyphids, perma-fear pretorians (oppressors included) and can save you from mactera ambush in a single click. It's like each time you shoot you activate a mini shield with seemingly unlimited ammo.

'Does the Hellfire Trail interact with Overcharger in any way?' Only in the normal "increases direct damage by up to +48" way. No effect on the trail. 'I also heard that Tier 5-2 doesn't increase it's size.' This might be outdated info from the experimental-t5b definitely increases the size of the trail with hellfire, and the whole trail gets the hellfire effect. You can see this quite clearly by using sandbox utilities to swap loadouts mid mission, and shoot hellfire with and without t5b, without moving. The visual effect clearly gets bigger and enemies at the edge of the larger effect get ignited. Don't take that to mean that's the best choice, though. Should have mentioned this, but the reason I chose that instead of t5c is because I wanted to show the "normal" rate hellfire kills bugs instead of stacking another DoT on top, since I was talking about the stats on that effect. I think it's a pretty competitive choice between the two but there's a strong case to be made for elec there.

The Fear mod is a sleeping tiger sort of mod. After it's buff, knowing you can rely on it a 100% means you can move way more proactively compared to the stun mod. It's a little trickier to get the max damage from trail but with some practice it's still really good. Hell some bugs freak out and go into the trail more. Stack this with the stun from your choice of primary (Mini with stun/blowthrough plus AggressiveVent or Hurricane AoeStun). Combine this with your shield, Born ready perk and T2 partial charge on the coil (even damage resist T4) means you have a very quick reliable way to keep bugs off you and your teammates with consecutive tools. It's reliability means you can commit to maneuvers that would normally be a big risk. "Get bit from behind, spin, fire off 25% charge/50% damage resist/Fear coil to make room, swap to primary, stun bugs, if necessary, drop shield as situation unfolds." or just charging ahead. *Fear is based on distance travels so stun makes it effectively last longer. Damage resist on Coil effects fall damage too.

People dismiss the fear effect to quickly, it’s as you said the electric trail slow keeps them harmless for longer than the stun would

excellent video

I like your taste in music.

This gun is more complex than I thought… I’ve found it very useful for just about anything as long as you are mobile enough. I’ve been trying to create a new habit of actually firing through cover.

It’s worth mentioning that you can run controlled magnetic flow along with the electric trail mod to take advantage of the Hellfire OC’s larger trail radius and use it to kill swarmers without wasting ammo. Personally I really enjoy stacking electricity on top of hellfire anyway, it might be a bit overkill but it’s a tasty addition to your DPS on top of slows without the opportunity cost of extra ammo, since the only ammo mod for the coil gun is available at tier one.

Combining fear and electricty debuff is one of the strongest things in the game. Fear is coded as giving the feared bug 1.5x speed and making them run away from the source untill they are 10m away. This means they are feared untill they travel enough distance and anything that slows them extends the duration of the fear. Electricty being the strongest slow in the game gives you so much more value out of fear Coilgun having easy access to both is a welcome addition to gunners arsenal.

Good video. I still don't think the Coil Gun is worth taking over the magic bullet bulldog with neurotoxin at 9:24 This is because I always use Autocannon with Big Bertha as my primary 10:16 , which has a very long reload, so I really only switch to my side arm for when my Autocannon needs to reload (using Born Ready for auto reload in 5 seconds). Now if I switch to the Coil Gun during this time, I would only be able to fire it once for a second or two, and then I'd have to reload it to fire again or just wait so that enough time passed for born ready to finish reloading my Autocannon (meaning I'd have several seconds of not being able to shoot). But with the bulldog, I can keep firing reliably and quickly until Born Ready is finished reloading my Autocannon. Plus the magic bullet build is good at killing everything fairly efficiently. (Also, I recommend taking the T2 accuracy mod on the Autocannon at 10:16 instead of the T2 fire rate mod. It makes the gun significantly more ammo efficient since it's more accurate, and makes it much better at longer ranges. You can also kill things faster by being able to instantly hit the target you want and hit weakpoints more often.) **Update** On second thought I might take this gun over magic bullet after this demonstration from blaze kzread.info/dash/bejne/i4Ft26-bnsjbl8Y.html

How much extra terrain does Mole rounds let you shoot through? From my tests, it seems to be about 3.... Also of note- I've had no luck repeatedly shooting into the same hole to bore my way towards a target with it, the bullets all seem to fizzle out at about 10-11m

The tier 5a mod which cause burning enemies to explode on kill is very good and with burning hell makes it easy and it does enough damage to reliably kill grunts, you can not aim at a grunt at close range with your minigun, set it alight and blast it with a full charge and watch all the others die, a crowd clearing tool if used right.

Very interested to see what strats people come up with for coil gun eliminations.

very cultured music choice

I was wondering why Hellfire was so heavily recommended before, and didnt understand why it was so good after playing with it. Turns out it was nerfed and holy shit the prenerf hellfire looks insane!

Hellfire is still extremely powerful.

Which coilgun setup you would recommend for LS LS minigun? I am looking for scoil setup that can deal with swarms of give me breathing room when too many bugs got too close as LSLS minigun murders any HVT on any distance already.

How did I not notice when triple-tech got fixed what- I need to try this now.

Has anyone noticed that the trails, (stock, electric, and hellfire) dont work when fired straight up? I was doing the new activity and noticed that it was just leaving the shot particles if I looked until I hit the look limit, but if I moved my mouse even a little, it worked fine.

What mod you using for the empty shooting range area, and how do I get it?

They need to hire LM to write the in-game tooltips

re-atomizer works ok ish with t5a if you kill a bug that is on fire angled towards other bugs then those bugs go esplodey as well...sometimes. sometimes it just dosnt work. Its fun to try to learn how to use it in the most effective way but not much beyond that lol

not to mention that hellfire is by far the best gun to clear out rival turrets, if you place a shot just right, the heat trail will ignite and instantly kill multiple turrets at once at a very long range

"Now that the sands have settled a bit", aint that the truth

Yo wouldn't agro venting + keeping enemies in place w/ the electric field be pretty nice?

For most enemies I think if they're already held in place by the elec effect, shooting enough to hit AV is probably usually overkill. But I am also a huge sucker for hot bullets instead of AV, so ymmv

But does the coilgun weigh at least 100 pounds?

dude when I saw the reatomizer on the oppressor I thought you made it a steeve for a sec😂

You had me at hellfire

Mole is funny. A couple of friends and I found out you can one-shot a teammate through full HP and shield if there's enough terrain in the way. Probably possible even with Friendly. Also I wanna mention before you do the other videos, you should probably turn the music down a bit, or make your voice louder. Kinda hard to hear you over the music sometimes.

Tested this out too, with the damage upgrade and mole overclock it one shots through 2 layers of terrain on haz 4, meanwhile it barely scratches bugs

🤣 I did this by accident and killed 2 of my mates at the same time. Thankfully we didn't lose and they thought it hilarious too.

I've discovered a bug with this weapon! Not mentioned anywhere so far, to my knowledge. Using Triple Tech Chambers with Controlled Magnetic Flow and the T4 damage resistance, you can keep the damage resistance permanently by fully charging a shot, then firing off the other two shots. Charging just a little bit will remove the resistance until you do the trick again. I've only done some minor testing, so I'm not sure if it stacks with the resistance from the Thunderhead's T5. But by adding on Veteran Depositor and Gunner's explosive resistance, I've been able to face-tank a Dreadnought with a Big Bertha build, since I can reach max ROF right away.

the reatomizer overclock, steeve, bulk detonator combo is a really fun way to get kicked from public matches

I am just wondering with mole can you make a rail gun because I have not seen a limit on damage it can do

I will applaud "the mole" Build. It made a korlok tyrant weed ridiculously easy on haz 5

Damn, it's been too long since I used The Mole. That was one of my first overclocks, and I love it. The extra damage is great, and the way it makes me always look for little props like crystals and pillars to shoot through is a really fun dynamic. Not to mention, there's nothing like being on comms with a friend, hearing them freak out one room over because of an Oppressor or something, and then telling them to ping it so that I can cut its HP one-third at a time. Not to mention... The Mole's downside isn't really that bad. Sure, the 80% charge speed might bite you if you're in a really tight spot, but if you're just looking to throw down an electric trail with low charge, it's really not that much of a difference (hell, the unstables have a bigger charge rate debuff, even). Most of the time, the biggest downside feels more like the fact that you're missing out on Triple Tech/Hellfire/etc. rather than that you're charging slightly slower than stock.

does overcharge only increase the damage of the shot and not the trail and that tier 5 mod where it increases the radius of the trail work for hellfire
