Amazingly, Dunnomatic, I actually prototyped a "Teach me how to Dougie" build!

Sadly, it's DPS was abysmally low and other players complained about the lack of any back-up guitar riffs (or any instrument for that matter). I had to scrap it.

Loved your video. Thanks for the info. Going to try this later tonight!

Sorry Reverend Lovejoy, but this is how to arkfall:

Drive Challenger over a couple hellbugs, then go do something else for 20 minutes, like hitting another arkfall.

No reason to stick around.

Then once you hit the Hellion, SAW the maws and Hellion and ground pounder the monarchs.

Agreed with most of that. The only thing I do differently is use a Wolfhound on the Maws as well instead of a SAW. Damage drop off doesn't seem terrible even as high up as they are.

If the Hellion is right on top of me I'll use the Wolfhound on the tail and then switch to a SAW for distance shooting.

To TC - Good effort on the video. Not a terrible strategy, but not the most effective overall...at least if you're shooting for a ludicrous score.

Great video - I use a very similar loadout (sans scope) and score very well. Never thought of cherry picking a "vacant" mini-arkfall to start, however:)
