Burrowing claw mutation can help.

Once while playing I set off like two or three thermal grenades at once, just out in the desert canyons near Joppa.  I was trying to take on a legendary equimax and his herd.  Well, the temperature got too hot so I had to abandon the area for a few, and when I stepped back into it I immediately burst into flame.  Rather than running, I first took a quick look around.  All of the shale walls were turning to lava and it was spreading.  Soon the area got so hot that I simply could not enter it at all and hope to survive.  I created a small slice of hell in the middle of the canyons.

Heavy weaponry?

I don't know of any reliable way to dig through rock...

Acid gas grenades. I use them for knocking down concrete walls in ruins, you just have to be careful that they don't destroy anything important.

Other than that, just get a weapon with really high penetration and be patient.  Especially when cave stairs were buggy, I found myself having to dig through walls quite a bit.  It's just a matter of time.

I just found the lair of the legendary salt kraken, leveling me up by 4 levels. Any advice on killing salt krakens?
Run far, far away. Seriously. I don't think there is any realistic way to kill a salt kracken.

So i've been exploring an expansive cave system, is it better to keep going down, or explore the same level?  I'm at level four now and each cave region has a bunch of lead slugs and shotgun shells strewn about with occasional slumberlings and apes.

I usually clear each floor before continuing down in the hopes of loot chests.  These can be especially good in ruins.

Force wall/bubble. I've killed dozens some games with temporal fugue + force bubble + a laser pistol. Enough ego and will means you can pretty much kill anything that can't get through force bubble after about level 8 or so. If you take force bubble+wall+temporal fugue, you can take down everything except sunder mind targetters.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

Click for either a windows .exe or a zip file install.  That's always the most up-to-date file.  Well, maybe not ALWAYS.
