Master weapon progression in Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor by unlocking Overclocks and building towards the 'Pro side wobble compensator' achievement.

A significant portion of side content revolves around weapon progression. Each weapon in the game has an 'Overclock' achievement for reaching level 18 with it (e.g., 'Overclock: DeepCore GK2' for the DeepCore GK2). This encourages players to experiment with different weapons and fully upgrade them during a dive. Equipping 10 Overclocks in a single dive earns 'Pro side wobble compensator', showcasing a highly optimized build.

Beyond Overclocks, there are 'Mastery' achievements for completing a dive with a specific weapon (e.g., 'Mastery: DeepCore GK2'). The ultimate challenge is 'True Mastery', which requires completing a weapon mastery dive at Hazard 5 (e.g., 'True Mastery: DeepCore GK2' for the DeepCore GK2). These mastery challenges push you to truly understand and optimize each weapon's potential, often requiring specific build strategies to succeed at the highest difficulty. Focus on one or two weapons per dive to maximize your chances of reaching level 18 and completing mastery objectives.
