i massed enough blasters to fill all free spots in the cavern, sent them in and built shields everywhere in the cavern area as well as about 4 nullifiers per emitter, got both emitters in <2 goes and took about a minute after that to finish the last of the high health drones.
not a neat way but it worked  ;)
hope that helps  8)

Finally got it.  Just kept flooding the cavern with blasters to sacrifice to keep numbers low until I could actually fit some in to shoot.

So how did Yum make it so the drones never left the cavern?

Drones can move through micro-rifts, but they can never 'see' through a micro-rift. So they only move through a micro-rift if there's also a route without using a micro-rift.

nice map !!

i have a trick for the drones.

just build a LONG line of portals. and build allot of blasters. line em up around the line of portals so that they will all enter at the same time.

select all. and you have 200 blasters in that cave in 1 sec :D some will shoot. and then just keep sending more

Found a less time consuming method for the bottom area(took 2 mins to clear the bottom of drones and gates once I figured it out) instead of sacrificing loads of blasters, open a single portal in the bottom, send in a batch of blasters to surround that portal. Drones rush the blasters, switch portals, fill as much area as you can with shields. The drones destroy all the blasters then swarm the shields, swap portals and place a nullifer as far from the drones as possible, they tend to ignore it til the shields are gone. Repeat the process but no need to use blasters this time since the drones are already bunched up.
