The goal in Elimination missions is to locate and destroy multiple [[Glyphid Dreadnought]]s, which are sleeping in their cocoons when the dwarves arrive. The [[Drop Pod]] is landed in a small "starter" room typically lined with resources such as Gold and Nitra. There are usually at least four tunnels to various caverns blocked by Compacted Dirt. These can be taken in any order to get to the Cocoons, though use of the player's Terrain Scanner will aid in locating them. They appear on the scanner as bright red egg shapes. The Cocoons themselves tend to spawn in open areas to fight in and are surrounded by veins of blue organic material, and emit an audible heartbeat sound. They are safe to approach, but take very little damage to break.

The Dreadnought is currently the only monster in the game to boast a unique health bar. Once summoned its HP will be visible at all times at the top of the screen to all players. The Dreadnought has two health bars; one standard HP bar and a second "armor" bar. The Glyphid Dreadnought has impenetrable armor plates which cannot be shot though with firepower, and its only weakpoint is its rear (similar to Praetorians). The rear is protected by a destructible shell, tied to the armor bar, which will reveal its weakpoint when destroyed. The shell will regenerate after a brief period of being destroyed, and must be broken again before the dwarves can attack the weakpoint. The shell can regenerate faster on higher difficulties. While the shell is broken players can also shoot the Dreadnought's mouth, though this deals limited damage. After all of the Glyphid Cocoons and Dreadnoughts have been destroyed, the extraction phase can be started using a red button on the [[M.U.L.E.]].

Elimination is a mission type in Deep Rock Galactic.

A nest of large Glyphid Cocoons has been located underground and the Dwarves are ordered to eliminate their various inhabitants: ferocious and heavily armored Dreadnoughts. Eliminations are the fourth and final unlockable mission type, the third being Point Extraction.

Dreadnought cocoon

The Dreadnought Cocoon

Eliminate Dreadnought Types

The goal in Elimination missions is to locate and destroy multiple Dreadnoughts, which are in their cocoons when the Dwarves arrive. Any Dreadnought variant can spawn from a cocoon, but the same variant can not spawn from two consecutive cocoons.

The cocoons appear on the scanner as bright red egg shapes. The cocoons themselves spawn near open areas to fight in and are surrounded by veins of blue organic material. They emit an audible heartbeat sound and are safe to approach, but take very little damage to break.

Swarms do not attack the players in Elimination missions, but smaller waves of enemies will occasionally attack, including while a Dreadnought Type is being fought. Since these missions are more combat focused, higher quantities of Nitra can be found on the walls to aid in calling Resupply Drops.

While you must complete your primary objective to finish the mission, You can choose to collect an optional secondary objective resource for a Credit Credit and Experience Points Experience bonus upon mission completion.

After the primary objective is completed, a red button will light up on the M.U.L.E to begin the extraction phase. Once pressed the Drop Pod will be called in to pick up the M.U.L.E and any surviving miners. It will wait for 5 minutes before departing, though the door will only open once the MULE has been secured.

Cave

Elimination caves consist of a small "starter" room typically lined with resources such as Gold and Nitra. There are usually a few tunnels to various caverns blocked by Compacted Dirt. These can be taken in any order to get to the Cocoons, though use of the player's Terrain Scanner will aid in locating them.

Main article: Dreadnought Types


Once a Glyphid Cocoon has been shattered, any of the three types of Glyphid Dreadnoughts will appear. They will attack immediately, using a variety of attacks to incapacitate the Dwarves. These attacks vary for each Dreadnought type.
