besides the HAM cost, does anyone noticed that even if we are within blast radius of nades and our heavy weapons we don't take damage?

I was hunting on Dantooine the other night and noticed that when i use a nade up close and personal, i don't injure myself anymore... point blank range with a nade (glop, cyroban, thermal, and c22 are the ones i've tried out, haven't gotten imperial denotators or proton certs yet) or with heavy weapons (hpbc and rocket launchers mostly) i don't get the message "you;ve avoided damage from..." and that i don't injure myself

Can anyone else confirm this???

I'll have to go try this out. I think there have been a few changes that they havent told anyone about. Seems like my flame DOT doesnt tic away as fast, or it could be that I'm killing the target too fast, but I normally only get to see one tic.

I just got master commando, and got some 5700 damage proton grenades as a congratulations gift from my grenade vendor so I'll have to go check it out. No way that damage will go unnoticed.

Well i just sold some thermals to a guy and he told me he brought himself a few points from death hehe..

Nope....I still blow myself up just as well as I used to. At least I cant run into DOT from FlameCone 2. That would be ugly.

Ralph said to make my own content. So I put a pair of shoes and 1 unit of low-grade ore into an unlocked container. Know what? It still sucks.

Yeah, they said youd be able to fire from on a speeder, but on TC you cant last I checked. If you can though, my buddy told me just watch firing my flame cone in front of my speeder bike. lol

Iincapped myself with a proton grenade on Saturday at the NYM starport on Lok. Careful when flying in overt . There was never a damage message for myself though in the combat queue other than several shock wound lines with 2 - 4 damage.

I would do it just for the screenie

Well, I tried it and lets just say its a good thing I didnt use the proton grenades. lol

I used thermals and it hurt me bad. If I didnt have my armor on I would be nothing more than a crater.

May have something to do with the blast area of your grenades. get within 10m once.

Indeed....was gettin rid of some loot grenades by chucking them at a lair that I was pummeling for unarmed....wasn't paying attention (qued up a whole lotta /throwgrenade) and when it got to the thermal dets, I found myself staring at the sky.

My guildy was all like "wha??", as was I for a sec, till I scrolled back through the combat spam...felt mighty stupid.

yeah, when the carbineers in my group whine about how fast they kill themselves I tell them

'you think so? watch this'

*throw grenade, incap self*

carbineer: ....

If you make sure you are outside of the blast radius when the grenade lands, can be hard with a moving target, you are ok. If you hit a target with a grenade inside the blast radius you will hurt yourself.

You also have to watch out for your buddies who might be in the blast radius. Don't want any casualtys due to friendly fire.

Yeah blast radius is working fine.... learned it was the hardway after chucking a proton grenade from 9m and quickly laying on the ground a moment later. it works just fine
