What are the best situations to activate the new nuclear energy supply for you?

According to me, there isn't much situation to use it, i can see only 2: the first one is if a container is dropping and you are using either hopper or viking and there are ennemies in front of you who would have caught it if you didnt used your supply.

The other case is to turn the tide of a battle, tho the low amount of quantity they give make it more valuable and rare than just winning a battle so this last one isn't a real reason.

Do you guys see any situations to use this supply?

You can activate it with viking right after you activated your OD, so the jammer takes place as you are using OD. then you kill as much as you like xD

Nice, good tip for my Viking abuse ?

I'd use it if it's a close game with a few minutes remaining, where my team is losing and one more successful attack with an OD would turn the score around. I also used a couple for the lulz, to try and get on top of Rio skyscraper with the flag in MM (it didn't work) :ph34r:

I got only 3 for now,

there is no point activate it or nothing worth its rarity, 

it is the same value as a 5000 tankicoin skin, if you think it that way, lol

i would use it with my Titan n jam immu, who ever cancel my dome w his titan will be cancel again by my dome again just to see his surprise  pikachu face

I've only used it as the Juggernaut as a last resort, it's a pretty effective way to cheat death and keep the fight for the win in a close battle. Plus since the Jug is immune to status effects you can use it instantly without getting the jammer effect.

Lmao I saw @Mafin a battle and he seems to have infinite OD with hopper, I'm sure he used his OD supplies. 

I only used one nuke so far in this event to catch a container. I mostly just control the OD box drop and take it every time.

Pretty simple question I reckon. Tanki has established nuclear energy as a rare commodity, so when do you guys usually use it? I have like 10 of them but I use Wasp as my main hull so I kind of use the overdrive it as a "suicide bombing" (lol) way, so I really am not able to load up the nuclear energy for another bomb since I use it in the last second and thus be destroyed. I used it yesterday on Siege with Viking to destroy the entire enemy team clumped together on the control point, it was pretty fun. So when do you guys use it?

Basically, I use Nuclear Energy when being Juggernaut in SJR and TJR modes, and sometimes in the DM mode itself when using Viking Overdive to clear all the enemies and then take the gold for myself ^^

Never.

Ironically it is pretty much a useless supply as there isn’t any scenario where it is actually worth it.

Sometimes I use the Nuclear Energy but get killed in the Overdrive delay duration and the whole supply goes to waste ....

So you have to carefully judge when and where to use that supply.

Furthermore it may become possible to sell it in the future for crystals or Tankoins. Who knows…

I usually use the supply while playing as the juggernaut in TJR mode to prevent myself from getting destroyed. This can easily secure a victory for my team, and I get some nice XP and crystals as a reward.

When you use the supply you get jammed by the effect, does the jammer effect also disable your drone effect for a short duration?

Yeah, and when you use Booster or Defender, for the whole 30 sec, the drone gets disabled which is a very bad thing. My suggestion is to use the Supply beforehand, and then after the 3-second Jammer effect is over, then use your drone to maximize the playing effect.
