How Nuke Codes in Fallout 76

Nuke Codes in Fallout 76 are what you need to input at a Nuke Site to authorize the launch of a missile. Inputting the codes triggers the launch of a massive bomb that can be used to annihilate most things within the vicinity of your target. However, it will turn that location into an irritated danger zone that will inflict intangible damage.

When a location is affected by these nuclear blasts, higher-level enemies will spawn within these areas, but so will your chances of acquiring better loot. Just make sure you go in tooled up and protected from radiation.
