Nuclear Det Pack
This piece of equipment has a few issues that make using it just about impossible.

A) Set down time takes ages. You will never put it down near anything without dying.

B) Even if you do manage to set it down, given that it's a timer, hitting anything with it is just about impossible.

The best I've been able to do is set it behind walls that look like they might fail in the next few seconds, but in those cases the friendly fire can be...annoying.

I guess I'm just not clear on what this item is actually for.

If there would be "tunnels" as objective to either purge with dozens of grenades and explosives or 1-2 Nuke Packs it would have a purpose.

Other than that it seemed useless where I can go into fortification mode as Bastion class, place it right in front of me and all the bugs get protected by my OWN barricades from the explosion. Can't even do a kamikaze as last resort.

Only once did it feel alright when placing under a grenadier bug, but usually getting swarmed before being able to and when trying to get a little room with fortification ability, it knocks all bugs including the grenadier away so I have to move again to place it which ends up with death before being able to do so. Also too weak to destroy a full-health grenadier smh.

Not to mention how any placing, be it mines, thermal or nuke det gets interrupted when hit.

Also the damage output is pretty awful and the AoE is tiny considering the risk and difficulty involved

They are fun for sneaking up behind a bastion guarding ore, putting it under their butt, and watching them spook right out lol.
