If you do want to go all out with a powerful Nuclear Reactor, you will need a constant supply of Reactor Rods.Įach Rod provides a massive 2000 Energy, although once expended they are used up and you need to craft another.

Expensive, powerful, and surprisingly noisy, the Nuclear Reactor is the ultimate endgame power source.
