I'm just getting ready to set up shop on Sunrunner, and as I'm going through the munitions tree, I realize I have no clue what type of grenades/detonators you guys use.


So what types do you use and what regularity? How often do you purchase them? And in what quantities? (So I know how much to keep in stock)



Thank you for your advice.

Every Novice Commando is certed for C22 Frag grenades ( I bought these 5 crates at a time!)


At Field Tactics 1 - Cryoban grenade (used only about 4 of these)


At Field Tactics 2 - Glop grenade (again bought these by the crate, but still used the C22's more often)


At Field Tactics 3 - Imperial Detonator (one of my favorites, used more than C22's, but HAM costs can get awful!)


At Field Tactics 4 - Thermal Detonator (I likedthem better than Imp Dets, damage is awesome, But HAM costs are higher still than Imp Dets.)


And finally, At Master Commando - Proton Grenades!!! (the mack-daddy of them all...my guild's Weaponsmith got max damage over 3,000... I carry no less than 2 crates at 15 stacks per crate)



But of course this is just me. I like the flash and "BOOM!!!!!!!" . And the blast damage radiusis good for mobbed enemies.

Didn't you find the speed issues on Imperial Detonators annoying? The BEST I've gotten them down to without powerups is roughly 10 seconds. Most I've seen are actually 20 seconds.


Also, crates of Protons should have 25 stacks, not 15...


If any of you Masters are on Radiant, I've got you covered. Check my sig.
