Hello,
ingame I´ve asked a couple of commandos which grenade types are most useful, in average they replied cryos and protons.
Do you agree here?
And I would like to know if there is a general interest instead of me selling the cryos and protons in crates, take them out of the grenades, slice them and add 33% max dmg or speed powerups on them (powerup on a grenade has more "uses" then the grenade batch itself, so this isnt some fraud poweruping like some weaponsmiths like to do).
Cheers

cryobans sucks imo......for acklay enhancements, use Glops, for all else protons, thermal and imperial dets are ok too

Im using protons to grind fs xp. I like to buy around six crates at a time with the same count in power up's.

Sell crates of grenade powerups along with the grenades.
Experiment some on accuracy as well... an accurate grenade with a bit of range is much better than an inaccurate grenade with a lot of power.

Thermo Detonators! all the way for me, probably some of the best speed grenades I use (w/ speed enhancements) with good damage. My only issue is IS that I can't find them anywere, I have no WS friends, and typically the cost is.......well.....I'm sure you know what the going rate is.

ehm haven't you noticed the speed mod is totally broke and you throw each grenade as fast (or rather as slow)????

I've been a Commando for quite some time, I have noticed that when I use the Speed enhancers I THROW FASTER!

Thanks for all the info 
Based on your great feedbackI´ll aim for the thermals (30Kper crate)and protons (40K)in crates (my C12s with 911 max dmg spd 2.6 go for 19K)

Protons are the best IMO...if you can land them. Thermals and Imp Detonators aren't that bad either.

My alt is a master weaponsmith, and I can't makec12s and thermals fast enough. I make Protons too, but I give all those to Eavik to use (for fun, not for grinding).
Each factory run produces 40 crates of C12s and 40 crates of Thermals.I sell the C12s for 35k a crate and the thermals for 75k a crate. They are usually all sold within 2 or 3 days of going up on my vendor. Each week I usually make 1 batch of thermals and 2 batches of C12s...so Im making almost 6 million a week just on grenades.
The Commando side of me hates FS grinding, but the weaponsmith side of me is absolutely loving it!
