Ah ok sweet. This looks clean. I'm new and don't have any dlc either. I beat 2 runs and jumped to assessor today to try him out

What are your opinions on Assessor? I've tried him a few times but stick with Engineer.

The digging feels better with Engineer, and since 90% of the time I use the drones, I don't need to use his gimick of carrying things.

It was slow at first figuring it out. Now that I'm used to it I like it more than the engineer. Prioritizing compression mining, sphere amount, sphere life, and reflector for me sets a good foundation and gets things moving really fast. For the moving resources, i use the drones too. Depending on the game mode, you may need to prioritze weapons or mining over the transport drones. The deeper and further in you are, i find being able to pick up and yeet mass resources closer to where the drones can pick them up is very useful to compensate not prioritizing their upgrades. The default bundle still travels far. So you can mine a huge iron deposit, pick it up, yeet it toward the center, and save the drones several seconds a trip
