Learn how to conquer The Docks in Outriders: Worldslayer's Trial of Tarya Gratar. Get tips on enemy priorities, cover usage, and class roles to maximize your loot.
Alright, so you've made it to the Trial of Tarya Gratar and you're looking to tackle The Docks? Smart move! This is one of the two optional rooms you can clear out before heading to the Throne Room, and it's a great spot to focus on getting Helmet drops. If you're just missing that last piece of your gear set, this is the place to be.
Walkthrough
- 1First Area - Warriors & Warlords: When you first enter The Docks, you'll be up against a mix of Warriors and Warlords. The key here is to get to cover *fast*. Seriously, don't stand out in the open. There are enemies in a watchtower with a clear line of sight, and they'll make you their priority target. Focus on taking down the Warriors first. They're more numerous and quicker, so if you let them swarm you, the slower Warlords will have an easy time picking you off.
- 2Second Area - Zipline & Behemoth: Once you've cleared out the first zone, head up the stairs and hop on the zipline. This will take you down to the second area. Your main target here is the Snow Behemoth. Don't get distracted by the Screechers just yet. If that Behemoth lands a hit on you while you're busy with the smaller enemies, it can one-shot you. Deal with the big guy first, then clean up the rest.
Tips
- Cover is King: I can't stress this enough – stay in cover! Especially when those snipers in the watchtower are active. Use the environment to your advantage.
- Group Composition Matters: If you're in a group, think about your team's strengths. Send in your close-range specialists like Tricksters or Devastators first. Tricksters get health and shields back from close kills, and Devastators are naturally tanky. Keep your Pyromancers and Technomancers back a bit. They can provide long-range healing (especially Technomancers with their healing abilities) and apply Damage Over Time (DOTs) from safety. Plus, having someone back means you've always got a potential revive available.
- Solo Play Strategy: Even solo, the same principles apply. If your class excels up close and personal, play aggressively but smartly, using cover. If you're more of a ranged damage dealer, play defensively and pick your shots.
- Buffs are Your Best Friend: Especially on higher Apocalypse Tiers, buffs are crucial. They let you burn through enemies faster, giving them less time to group up and overwhelm you. Make sure to use your class-specific buffs like Twisted Rounds (Trickster) or Blighted Rounds (Technomancer). If you have a Technomancer with an Ordnance Skill like Tool of Destruction with the Cannonade Perk, make sure they activate it for that sweet Weapon Damage boost.
- Lower the Difficulty if Needed: Don't be too proud to lower your Apocalypse Tier by one if you're really struggling. It's better to get better gear and resources at a slightly lower tier than to get stuck. If you don't want to run a full Trial run at a lower tier, consider running Expeditions – they're a faster way to farm Titanium and Drop Pod Resources.
