One cool modded one comes with the "Hazardous Reactors" mod, it's a "Crisis warhead" (you shove it into a normal warhead) it explodes and pulverizes anything around it, capable of one shoting anything in the game, the problem is, to get it you need to do a "Dry" (no water in the room) meltdown of your reactor with a Super-Critical Fulgarium fuel rod, which irradiates and instantly kills anything around it (without pucs) so yeah, pretty balanced I'd say. Great video as always.
Hm, the need for a high-qual fulgraium rod is prob the biggest counter-balance for the crisis. Otherwise, wats stopping someone from taking a pirate sub and just nuking their reactor and fixing it over and over again?

This is exactly what I needed. It seems like the flak cannon can out-damage the railgun in most cases (obviously not with nukes). But it's good to know that the canister shell can be a viable and extremely cheap / efficient alternative with each shell only requiring a single lead to reload. Thanks for the video!
Thinking about the strength of the Railgun Shells relative to what each require, it's actually pretty interesting how good the Canister Shells are. They're relatively cheap to re-fill, so it's kind of hard to see a downside for their strength, but that downside is actually loading time. If you need to fire off your railgun, constantly, the Mechanic just being able to make a normal shell, run it, and load it while the next is crafting is super valuable when time is of the essence. Meanwhile, with the Canister Shells, someone has to remove it and run it to the fabricator and back. Just needing to remove it and take it to the fabricator effectively doubles (I think it's more like makes it take 1.4x longer, since the mechanic is still running back to the fabricator after loading the first shell, anyways) how long it takes to reload a Canister Shell.
Comparing to another heavy weapons it's unreasonably expensive if you're using common or physicorium shells, even with warheads, while nuclear shells are abnormally cheap to uranium: you don't need it for fuel rods, if you're not planning to deplete them or use as ammo for Fissile Accelerator, because you would rather use thorium or fulgurium, and fertilizer is not essential consumable.
Can you do a full video on everything that works in the railgun ammo my friends think fuelrods add extra bang to the nuclear ammo and I'm sure frag grenades work also love your videos they're helping me so much since I'm new to barotrauma
It would be very cool, because I noticed that UEX damage on a larger wall goes to fire (which is useless under water), so I thought it was worth making a frag grenade out of it, but in practice it was impossible to measure the damage
Canister shells are insane early game. Being able to translate 1 lead into 1 rail gun shot is huge. Lead is cheap and plentiful and at alot of outposts
flak - best choise, railgun - one of the worst weapons (cheap shell? but you will need lots of them. nuclear shell top damage? require more then any other ammo, need to be used on large creature or meet the loss like 80% of potential damage and probably gonna nuke your own self). Railgun needs buff like collect some of used regular shells for reuse, self-destruction timer or explode if enemy near instead of dirrect hit or auto-targeting, increase amount of fragments from canisters or lowering cost of pruduction or increasing quantity of production (2 lead in 1 use to kill some creatures in small area? - regular coilgun with standart ammo would be a better choise for the cost) P.S. about double coilgun: explosive ammo is good, but has a few shots and can be used as regular only in lategame, while flak cannon can handle early, middle and end game without much resource draining, perhaps depleated and piarcing ammo need a little buff.
Quick question: Does it make any difference to load explosives into the nuclear railgun shell? PS: You got a new subscriber. I really like your content…
uex is better than frag grenade in structural damage but in creature damage uex = frag grenade. C4 twice as good as uex and has better radius. I will make more videos on this topic
Ah Railgun it's funny you can litteraly put any explosive in it even stun and emp grenadej my favorite type of railgun is from modded one, heavy Railgun expensive to make but it does worth the mats although the lack of variety of the bullet (only 3 so far) kinda make me prefer stick with the normal one.
Ah yes, i remember the day when i first launched a rail gun loaded with a dirty bomb straight into the hall of a poor, unsuspecting pirate warship. Needless to say they enjoy the crew now enjoy their new life with the fishes.
I was curious how the explosive interaction works with higher quality C-4, UE-X and IC-4 (good quality,masterwork etc.), because when we play we always craft the highest quality C-4 we can, and if it works in the situation with the Moloch it would probably kill in 3 shots instead of 4, Just beating out the explosive coilgun rounds right?
heard a rumor somewhere that if you put clown equipment like the outfits or bike horns in a shell and shoot it, it provides psychosis when used against an enemy crew. no idea if true.
Have you done a video testing frag grenades or similar as a railgun payload? Most of the grenades are slightly redundant, but frag is rather spicy by virtue of how heavily it bleed procs. Not sure if it'd be competitive compared to canister though.
Unstable N is the same as regular, it difference is that unstable automatically degrades on its own until it explodes. Think of it like a time bomb, except the timer starts as soon as you craft it. *And there is no way to stop it.*
I just hate railguns because they take so much managment and have to reload after every shot, i just want to slap a box of ammo in the loader and go to town
whats the hull penetration on railgun ammo? can in theory a physicorium shell go thru a pirate ship? want to know this cuz i need a way of killing all pirates on a gun deck but leaving their sub mostly intact
are the c-4 or ic-4 masterwork quality? difference btwn normal and masterwork is very substantial. in campaign if u reached zone3 u are pretty much guaranteed to be able to make those so its not a rare thing.
Btw how is "canister shell" considered as "cheap"? It is super expensive, cause all of the plumbum turns into firearm ammo and you will still be lack of it.
@@Minedeployder with the rework of crafting recipes and costs I think it'll be "cheap", honestly anything railgun related isn't efficient at all, only nuclear shells are efficient sadly enough
@@loyso9171 c4 has better creature damage and structure damage. If you have a lot of grenades you can put them in railgun shell to make it dealing slightly more damage that empty. But grenade is not an alternative to c4 because of worse capabilites. If crafting explosives for railgun from scratch I will choose c4.

Kinda sad how IC-4 is outperformed by C-4. Guess I should just save them for Nuclear Shells.
The idea behind IC-4 is: "Big boom then Big fire"
Problem is.
Big Boom=Big Water
Pretty nice for pvp

That sounds like a good idea.
Emp grenades in your railguns work wonders against enemy pirates if you have good knowledge of where their junction room is.
I was thinking, why would anyone run the Rail gun over flak cannon now? Then you shot the nuke. I forgot about that xD
Standard shell: "For your eyes only"
Flak cannon: "To whom it may concern"
Nuclear shell: *"This is a public service announcement"*
Canister shells are insane early game. Being able to translate 1 lead into 1 rail gun shot is huge. Lead is cheap and plentiful and at alot of outposts
Thanks! I feel this was long overdue and clarified much. Really, thanks dude!

看到那個爆炸了嗎? 就算不是核彈 還是有相當的爆炸範圍與傷害
也許成本更高昂，但是軌道砲 有高射炮不能比的優勢，我相信高射炮有更好的泛用性但是不用詆毀軌道砲的戰力
i don't know why i just started laughing at 3:29
i think it because i once used a nuclear shell on a crawler just because i had one laying around XD
High quality content. Thank you for your time and effort
Quick question: Does it make any difference to load explosives into the nuclear railgun shell?
PS: You got a new subscriber. I really like your content…
there is no or very very little difference
第一階段，霰彈意外的有高效率(能穿透裝甲?)? C4 有更好的傷害能力? 還是UEX 有效實惠?
敵人的裝甲值影響呢? 穿透性比較強的是哪一種?填裝鋼鐵或是其他材料會有效果嗎? 或者快速破壞外裝甲的能力??
爆炸傷害對每一種生物的差異? 有裝甲的差異?
我看到很多人用手榴彈當作爆炸物(UEX)替代品，真的有比較好嗎?
看完之後我十分的好奇，非常好奇，我想知道更多細節
uex>frag grenade 現在已經正式上線了，這遊戲 frag grenade = uex. C4 兩倍好 uex. 我會製作更多關於這個主題的視頻

Might be good to mention most of the explosive compounds go boom when dropped
what if you put a dirty bomb in a nuclear shell. do that make you a war crime?
I think nuclear shell is already war crime... so its just doubles your prison term
F#ck it, *puts Dirty bomb in a nuclear shell*.
Very good video mate :D
Double coil gun with the explosive ammo is probably my favorite weapon in the entire game. It’s just so reliable.
Ah yes, i remember the day when i first launched a rail gun loaded with a dirty bomb straight into the hall of a poor, unsuspecting pirate warship. Needless to say they enjoy the crew now enjoy their new life with the fishes.
If I can tag depth charges and syringes to be fired from rail guns. Does that mean I can tag railgun rounds to be fired from something more… handheld…
One thing you forgot you actually can put frag grenade into the railgun shell
you can put fulgurium in a nuke shell and it seems to work well
3:32 the moment i saw the explosion I died and wanting that nuclear shells so bad now 😂🤣
how about using frag grenades other than C4?
hmm🤔, I think if you already have frag grenades, you can put it in shells, but if you crafting its better to choose c4 for more damage
Amazing vid!
That nuclear shell made me laugh so hard

Hey, you forget to put dirty bomb into a nuclear shell :D
you missed that you can put mini nukes inside the railgun shell
Actually we can load a frag grenade inside one instead of UEX to get greater effects.
You can put fuel tanks into shells and it will explode in a small radius
Nukes got a huge buff back beforehand the phyconium was flat better
What about unstable compound N? I’d assume it’s a more explosive version with more damage and bigger radius.
Unstable N is the same as regular, it difference is that unstable automatically degrades on its own until it explodes.
Think of it like a time bomb, except the timer starts as soon as you craft it. *And there is no way to stop it.*

Whats the name of the background music
Barotrauma OST - Wartrauma
does emp grenade in railgun shell work?
yes
where is the volitile compound-N
its absolutely same as compound-N
revolver and nuke use?
But how does railgun shell + frag grenade stack up?
Worse than C4
Does adding explosives in the nuke shells make any difference?
The nuclear explosion itself will be the same but there will be second weaker explosion of something that you put it shell
How big and much damage would a grenade do if put into a shell?
It will be less damage than c4
what about grenades in railgun shells?
also can't we put things inside of the nuclear shell aswell?
How do you have many shells?
many loaders
Why didn’t you cover fusion shells.
what
@@InitialDesu just realized this is probably part of ek mods pack or smth
So wait, would putting C-4 inside a nuclear shell be the optimal damage output of that shell ? Or does putting anything inside a nuke do nothing ?
