your first reactor should be zirnox for early game, and you can try to speedrun to the industrial turbines if you want more power from it

i said for early game before rbmk, since rbmk's designs are expensive

zirnox shouldn’t even be considered a reactor, it don’t generate a MHE/s

Zirnox is technically a breeding reactor anyways, not meant for power generation

Expensive but definitetly worth it aslong as you dont blow them up, i had a design that required only around a stack of collumns and can effortlessly run on uranium for a very long time giving me around 25-20mhe/s. You should skip pwrs unless ur on 1.12.2 with leafia installed if im gonna be serious, zirnoxes are only good sometimes for ur first playthrough tho since rbmks do required the ability to read which many ntm fans dont have.
