I am seriously thinking about adding 4/0/0/0 Commando to my template. It adds some nice bonuses to my melee template and I also get grenades. However, since grenades got such a bad rap during "NADE GRINDING", that its hard to ask about them without people thinking your cheating your way to jedi. I have a full template jedi, and this is for my alt.
Are grenades effective in PvP combat. Can I stand toe to toe Melee tanking and drop grenades? Anyone try this or have this now? If so what do u use and how do u like it...Thanks in Advance...Vick

Well since the FS combat exchange was changed, I don't think many folks use grenades to grind up to Jedi anymore...
As for their use? I'd think for PvP, Imperial Detonators (innate KD) would be the most useful as you could KD a whole area of enemies with one blast. Plus its one of the faster grenades (18-25 seconds, opposed to up to 45 seconds for proton grenades). Might even be able to throw in the cyroban for its snare, but it's base timer is only a few seconds. If you get a weaponsmith to exclusively experiment on the states, they should be more useful.
If it's damage you're looking for, grenades are not all that viable unless you specifically have enhanced stacks with glands/acklay enhancers (which can be put in glop grenades, and one or two others...Im sure some of the grenediers out there can help you with that).
