The Driller is there to collect. Move fast and focus on your mineral targets in front since your back will always be covered by your weapons. Dig narrow passages through the rock and use the turrets and flamethrowers to block the path and pave it with death behind you. Once you’ve mined the area, come back to collect the XP points your sludge and fire weapons left for you.
