Nuking Guide
Nukes!
Now why nukes you might ask? They are your key to survival, to wipe out the bug filth from Hoxxes. Though you might complain and say the ammo taken away from using Fatboy is too much, well Greenbeard shush up!
With this Overclock it is your job to wipe out the Swarms, to take the glory from your Dwarven teammates, to kill that massive clump of Glyphids, and to show Science reigns supreme!
Base Fatboy
The Fatboy even without Gear Modifications slotted in, is still powerful to wipe full swarms in just a single shell. Though, you don’t gain much in terms of usefulness or variety. After those shells are gone, you’re in a rough spot friend.
Easy Tips:
- Not much ammo, so pick the biggest Swarms you see.
- If no giant swarms, pick the biggest target there is. Combine radiation and your bullets!
Utility Fatboy
Thunk! Thunk! Thunk!
Now this here is the one I use the most due to the simple fact of utility.
If you’re a smart Dwarf you will have already mastered the art of picking your targets! With this you won’t have to give a damn about messing up a shot cause you got plenty more in your bag.
Here are a few things I suggest with this:
- Focus on swarms of Grunts, Slashers, Guards, and Praetorians.
- Black Box, Uplink, Fuel Cells, or Point Extract you can lock down entire areas with the radiation.
- If the radiation/explosion doesn’t kill most bugs then with their armor now gone your allies or you can easily finish them off.
Incendiary Fatboy
Glass the planet!
So, with this you’re going to swap out more ammo, for more radius. The entire purpose of this variation is for maximum assurance that those disgusting bugs stay dead with radiation AND fire! However, you do still have that extra bit of ammo from the first modification.
Tips for the Incendiary Variation:
- Be a bit more careful with your shots, as both the radiation + fire can quickly drop your fellow Dwarves.
- With the added radius you do not have to worry about placement of the shell all too much.
- Always remember, this is for science. Your health and well being with this is not guaranteed!
The Forbidden Science
There’s. Nothing. There. Gordon.
Now I must say our time together has been short my fellow dwarven brothers and sisters. This is what happens when you tap into the dark. Prepare for unforeseen consequences.
Tips for this abomination:
- Nothing survives, fire away.
- Your fellow dwarves will “thank” you, remember this.
- Your ammo does not exist.
We’re Friendly You Leaf Lover!
Remember friends! A living Dwarf is a happy one!
Short and sweet this time lovelies!
You take 50% less damage from allies and deal 50% less damage to allies. So your worries of dropping your teammates are sorta over! Remember, the radiation and likely fire can still do a hefty chunk of damage so be wary of misplaced shells.
