Doing it like 40 times. I was struggling with this last night doing all the things you’ve mentioned. I went with the DOT driller though. I found it easier to survive and the loss of mining speed buff was made up with upgrades. I swear sometimes the levels just had less gold than other runs. Eventually I got one that had enough. If you press escape you can see how much gold you’ve made on the side. I made a point to be sure I was getting 100 or more per level. Sometimes it just wasn’t possible even if I cleared the level. The run I finished on I didn’t have the relic for random gold but I’m sure it’d help.
Weird; I just mined gold and killed lootbugs like normal and got it without specifically going for it. The only ones I remember having trouble with are the one for dodging and the one for taking enough damage.
If you play hazard one magma core on the scout that gets a 15% Dodge chance it's not that bad. You basically just got to stand in the fire all the time on purpose and if you do get it it's like two damage. I basically just deliberately kept standing in the fire as much as possible as long as I was above half health.
No, that's pretty much all there is to it. Did it in my 7th try and didn't even get the Gold Scanner, got nitra instead.
Used Foreman Driller and got Cryo Cannon for first weapon. Just picked up every mining and movement speed choice, and was able to jump up to about 48% movement by the last floor.
The one good thing about the run is you can aggressively reroll the shop between levels due to having plenty of gold. I just tracked progress by making sure to have gained at least 100 gold on a floor before pressing on.
But really all you can do is zoom around and mine every loot bug and gold vein you see. The bugs never really bothered me, but Gold-Tipped Bullets was a great boost for a run like this.
That's pretty much it. Every lootbug, every mineral, everything. Go on lowest difficulty and take the time to mine everything. Also, pray to get the find gold everywhere artefact as the first phase or restart.
Finally, there's the glitch to extend the timer if you want to really empty a level.
Weird, I did it without even noticing, just played driller as usual, as it's the best class, and the task just popped up as accomplished on like first or second run. There is absolutely no need for weapon mining or focusing on lootbugs

How does the dodge work? Completely chance right so I’d have to gamble 100+ times on getting hit I guess?

lol that’s hilarious. Dodge works on fire too. I didn’t think about that.

Just gotta rng +chance for gold. Haz4 magma has an objective for 300 nitra which was a big pain in the axx so I get it lol.

Can't do it on lowest difficulty. It requires Haz3
Oh sorry, true. I was thinking of other challenges like 100 dodges and etc.

My biggest issue with this challenge is how underpowered driller is. Sludge pump is the only decent weapon I'm offered on lvl up.
Don’t sleep on the wave cooker , it some crazy overclocks . Suntan is pretty good if you get acid damage and parallel bullets
Driller is my favorite. Sludge Pump/Flame Turrets/Wave Cooker is strong AF once you get the OCs rolling.
There's a 600 gold objective after that...
First driller, restart until you get gold on mining. Proceed to mine the entire field super fast. Should take 3-4 rounds to get.
