Nuking Nuka World
For the third time in just as many days (and a couple of times before that), I just watched someone nuke Nuka World on Tour. The first couple of times, an even was just happening there, so I assumed someone was just trying to be funny. This last time, the area was empty. So on the off chance all you people nuking Nuka World are trying to summon the ultracite titan, you are targeting the wrong place.

The giant mole rat is fought at Nuka World, but you target abandoned Mine Shaft 2 to the southwest, that little road that just ends to the west of the towers on the map.

Side note, when you get the notification a nuke is being dropped, check the map. The events were over by the time the bomb hit, and I still watched a half dozen people get wiped out.

I think, at least in part, some of them are nuking for flux materials. It's a dense concentration for events and mobs from events can also net these materials.

There is nothing much in the area normally, and the events are over by the time the nuke hits. And this last time, there was no even going on. They could be nuking the area in hopes that a future even will happen there, but if they want materials there are better places they could nuke. Places that actually have creatures and plants to harvest.

you can get a lot of flux materials from the mobs at Spin the Wheel. Also, keep in mind, any mobs that spawn in the area while the nuke zone is active are automatically max level. This means both Spin the Wheel and Most Wanted become excellent xp runs for the next couple hours.

I'm not saying your wrong, I'm just saying not everyone follows the same train of thought, not everyone follows guides. Some people like to experiment and learn on their own.

I have also been on teams where the person dropping the nuke completely missed the mine and we were all sitting there waiting for an event that never came. :steamfacepalm:

Seen it nuked directly too for flux materials from the mobs as mentioned. I don't like to do that as it excludes many lower levels players from the events. Or at the least makes them very uncomfortable in participating.

It doesn't really exclude people like it used to since they added all those T-45 sets around 76.

I did it for the flux mats. Got 20x of each last run, not bad for a battle that lasts 10 minutes tops.
