What is the worst overclock in your opinion?

Fat boy, mainly because engineers can't use it properly.

Using nukes in DRG isn't too hard: watch your aim, adjust for the shortened range, watch out for other players, and don't waste your limited ammo.

-Lacks ammo
-Friendly fire from radiation
-Other builds exceed it's killing efficiency in AoE or single target.

This thing is just a big cowabunga OC with no good use.

Maybe nuke mining from the ceiling but even that can be done far more efficient through other means.

Nukes can wipe out swarms and do a lot of damage to heavy bugs, along with providing area denial. Using nukes for mining can be quite useful for mass mining in the event that drillers or scouts are unavailable. Nuke mining can get the job done fast if you are cleaning up the remains from a crassus kill.

fat boy is good for the radiation field, not the explosion. it's a gigantic AoE with very effective area denial, especially with incendiary compound
unfortunately VIM on the shard exists which is infinitely better than fat boy could ever hope to be because it's also a very effective form of area denial which doesn't require you to gimp your secondary for the privilege

Pair big AoE fire grenade PGL with about 11 shots and use a high damage single target primary, executioner Lok-1 for example. 1 Grenade in the swarm and take out the surviving big bugs with the lok-1, works like a charm and the ammo efficiency is amazing. Took out most bugs of my team and had to use the least resups.

Fat boy is great if you need to lock an area down though. It leaves the giant (8m radius!) radiation field that does good damage with a long duration, with no dropoff. Normal grenade launcher builds kill the enemies you shoot. Fat boy kills them and then anything else that walks nearby for the next 15 seconds.
As long as you're not on radioactive exclusion zone, that is. It sucks there. Very sad times.
