Satisfactory Nobelisk Guide: Types, How to Detonate, & More

Posted on by justin
The Nobelisk in Satisfactory serves as an essential tool for Pioneers to modify surroundings and overcome certain topographic obstacles. This versatile explosive comes in different types, which we’ll cover in this guide, along with how to detonate a Nobelisk and other important details.

Nobelisk Types in Satisfactory

Satisfactory Nobelisk As of Version 1.0, five types of Nobelisk exist in Satisfactory: Standard, Cluster, Gas, Nuke, and Pulse. Each Nobelisk model has its unique properties and applications. For instance, one type of Nobelisk produces a deadly gas cloud while another generates a massive explosion.

Standard Nobelisk

Satisfactory Standard Nobelisk The most basic form of Nobelisk in Satisfactory, the standard model offers a regular blast meant for clearing nearby debris. Its explosion can help remove elements like rocks, trees, and other obstructions. Doing so helps a Pioneer expand their factory to a nearby biome.

Stats

  • AWESOME Sink Value: 152
  • Explosion: ≤50
  • Sticks to Target: 1
  • Blast Radius: 7.5 m

Crafting Requirements

  • Unlocking Requirements: Sulfur Research – The Nobelisk Detonator (50x Black Powder, 100x Steel Pipe, and 200x Cable)
  • Building: Assembler
  • Ingredients: 2x Steel Pipe and 2x Black Powder

Cluster Nobelisk

Satisfactory Cluster Nobelisk The Cluster Nobelisk is the stronger version of the Standard Nobelisk in Satisfactory. Generally, its primary use is still to help a Pioneer clear rocks, trees, and other obstacles. However, the Cluster Nobelisk can clear larger areas, thanks to its ability to create smaller explosions after its initial blast.

Stats

  • AWESOME Sink Value: 1,376
  • Explosion: <50
  • Cluster Explosion: <25 x 5
  • Blast Radius: 8 m

Crafting Requirements

  • Unlocking Requirements: Sulfur Research – Cluster Nobelisk (100x Smokeless Powder and 200x Nobelisk)
  • Building: Assembler
  • Ingredients: 3x Nobelisk and 4x Smokeless Powder

Gas Nobelisk

Satisfactory Gas Nobelisk Unlike the Cluster and Standard Nobelisks, the Gas Nobelisk in Satisfactory doesn't create an explosion. Instead, it releases a cloud of toxic gas, making it useful for dealing with enemies.

Stats

  • AWESOME Sink Value: 544
  • Explosion: 0
  • Poison Gas Damage: 5
  • Blast Radius: 15 m

Crafting Requirements

  • Unlocking Requirements: Mycelia Research – Gas Nobelisk (10x Nobelisk, 100x Mycelia, and 200x Biomass)
  • Building: Assembler
  • Ingredients: 1x Nobelisk and 10x Biomass

Nuke Nobelisk

Satisfactory Nuke Nobelisk The Nuke Nobelisk creates the largest explosion out of all the Nobelisk types. A Pioneer can use it to destroy boulders, forests, and even factories with this bomb’s blast. So, ensure that you use a Nuke Nobelisk far from your factory to prevent its accidental destruction. Additionally, the blast creates a radiation field, which is similar to a Nuclear Waste dumpsite.

Stats

  • AWESOME Sink Value: 19,600
  • Explosion: >150
  • Blast Radius: 25 m
  • Radiation: ≤50 m

Crafting Requirements

  • Unlocking Requirements: Sulfur Research – Nuke Nobelisk (500x Nobelisk, 10x Encased Uranium Cell, and 100x AI Limiter)
  • Building: Manufacturer
  • Ingredients: 5x Nobelisk, 20x Encased Uranium Cell, 10x Smokeless Powder, and 6x AI Limiter

Pulse Nobelisk

Satisfactory Pulse Nobelisk The Pulse Nobelisk is a versatile explosive in Satisfactory. This explosive generates a powerful shockwave when used. Doing so can help knock enemies back or destroy unwanted structures.

Stats

  • AWESOME Sink Value: 1,533
  • Explosion: <5
  • Blast Radius: 10 m

Crafting Requirements

  • Unlocking Requirements: Quartz Research – Pulse Nobelisk (5x Crystal Oscillator and 100x Nobelisk)
  • Building: Assembler
  • Ingredients: 5x Nobelisk and 1x Crystal Oscillator

How to Detonate a Nobelisk in Satisfactory

Satisfactory Nobelisk Detonator A Nobelisk isn’t like an HE Grenade wherein you pull the pin, throw the explosive, and it’ll explode in a few seconds. On the other hand, detonating a Nobelisk requires the use of a Nobelisk Detonator. Thankfully, unlocking the Standard Nobelisk crafting recipe also unlocks the recipe for the Nobelisk Detonator. Once unlocked, craft a Nobelisk Detonator using 1x Object Scanner, 10x Steel Beam, and 50x Cable at the Equipment Workshop. Then, equip the Nobelisk Detonator, which should allow you to choose a type of Nobelisk as the ammo. Next, throw the Nobelisk at your preferred location and activate the detonator to create the explosion.
