Heya guys n gals.
After a few months break and a bit of dabbling in other professions to try things out im coming back to my original template of master commando master smuggler.
Back when i used to play i usually carried around 1x speed sliced flamer 1x dmg sliced flamer 4 crated flamers incase one broke down and i didnt get the slice i wanted right off the bat. 1x speed sliced launcer pistol 1x dmg sliced launcher pistol. 4x crated LP's for same reason listed above.
a crate of rocket launchers and a crate of HPBC's(i think it was these. i didnt use them often but every once in a while i found a mob with energy vun.)
I never really dabbled in grenades before. I tried them out once or twice and had bad experiences(incaps deaths and low dmg from them). however i want to give them another try as i think they have good uses for certain situations. So out of curiousity what grenades do you use on a regular basis, what sort of damage do they produce, and what advice would you give me for when i use them?
thanks in advance

Hiya,
You carry pretty much the same as me but I use a wider array of expendables. (prolly cuz I get em free)
Lightning Beam Connons ! I love em these days.
So far as nades goes I carry glops, C12 and either Imp deto's or thermals. (My best results seem to be blast of any type)
I got a bud who says he had some real good results with Cryo's on the Vette.
I realy like em in places like the Vette or DWB when I can get stuff to stand still.
Course a bit more accuracy and range would make them staple weps I think, to me any way.

whats the average damage on a thermal? they can be sliced right? how often do they miss stationary targets? what range do you throw them from? how fast can they be thrown?

Sorry, it's just that I've had very bad, very expensive experiences with Grenades, even as a Master. For me, it's not worth it.

so that prevents you from answering questions about them? i realize they aren't up to par, but i'm still interested in learning how they work and what they do....

ok well i'm no expert on nades but i do use them. I always keep at least 1 factory crate of 25 with stacks of 5 of each kind. and two crates of protons, cause them do uber dmg. the ws i getum from not sure of dmg but i can hit mob for about 8 to 900 dmg. like i said i'm no expert.

so basically they are totally useless for pvp damage wise? (assuming you could hit someone with them)

=)
but the problem is, i only have enough points for Field Tactics IV currently. if the grenade is only going to do say, 200dmg/random pool + be slow and inaccurate, it's fairly useless.
