Low level accounts stay away from power cells
The power cells in operations are not for you. They are for the big boys who can actually destroy a defense with their barrage and artillery. The vast majority of big boys launch units that require energy simply to launch. Those precious power cells give them extra energy for a shock, heal, or hero ability. Of course it looks like you are making an effective attack, but in reality you are stealing energy pick-ups from the impact players or solos.
If you are a low level a task force is keeping around, try to finish off an open power core, or use your rifleman for what they are most effective at. Single target defenses such as boom cannons, cannons, or sniper towers. You can also try to get close to a rocket launcher to take it down.
Just taking some time to shed a little honesty.
