— Miner's Manual |
The BET-C (Breakpoint Explosives Transport - Combat-Specification), nicknamed "Betsy," is a Deep Rock Galactic-owned quadrupedal robot capable of walking on any surface, previously serving as a mobile depository, defensive turret, and grenade launcher.
Gameplay
BET-C can rarely be found during missions, with a 5% chance to appear.
Before its corruption by a pair of Xynarch Charge-Sucker machine parasites, BET-C presumably acted as a depository/security escort for an unknown previous team of Dwarves. Unlike the M.U.L.E., BET-C is equipped with a large turret and a grenade launcher for offense and a Shield Generator to protect itself when in danger.
Infected
As BET-C has poor component security, Xynarch Charge-Suckers are able to access its circuitry to consume copper and electricity, and as a result they can corrupt and control it against its fellow Dwarves.
Infected BET-C units can randomly be encountered in missions, initially in a dormant state. While in this state, BET-C makes a distinctive pulsating sound audible from vast distances. Once approached or shot, BET-C immediately awakens and turns hostile against the Dwarves.
An infected BET-C has three different attacks:
- Aim and shoot in short bursts at any nearby Dwarves.
- Activate a shield generator and launch 8 bombs in a small ring around itself.
- Re-position while firing a single grenade at any nearby Dwarves.
To pacify BET-C, the team must destroy both Charge-Suckers attached to it. Once they are removed, BET-C collapses and requires a reboot, in a similar manner to repairing a Mini-M.U.L.E. Rebooting BET-C takes around 8 seconds, after which it follows its newfound friends and will fire at enemies.
BET-C is completely invincible to all attacks, and boasts the same impressive firepower it uses against the dwarves.

Trivia
- A corrupted M.U.L.E. was originally teased on Twitter back in September, 2018. The model shown was very different from the one that exists today.
