I see to many of you guys flaming peple when they suggest to use c12's to grind FS. They are simply using something in the game to enhance themselves. Nothing wrong with it if your group doesn't mind. Anyone else feel this way?

I believe its the fact that this method for getting xp is so self centered that bothers people. It is indicative of a person who is trying to rush to Jedi with no care for his fellow players. Granted, as you said, it isn't so bad when you're among people that don't mind you doing it. However, the general population that seem "against it" are opposed for the fact that nade users represent "the quick and easy path." I personally feel it's fine if you're among people who don't mind it, but I would rather contribute to a group than leech off of it, especially if they are friends.

I am grinding using Nades, but here is the way I do it. I get together a group of people who all know I am grinding with grenades. Most of them need experience with Unarmed or Some type of weapons. I throw one C12 and they kill the creatures and get their experience as do I. There is nothing wrong with grinding this way as long as you are not in a group that doesnt want you to grind with grenades. There are many times I have to pull out my rifle or whatever to help in killing the creatures when we get a group of creatures that start really hurting the group. Usually, when I put the group together, it is a group that you do not have to worry about them getting killed and are composed of mainly high level or even Jedi's.

Some people say it is abuse, others say it is unfair to the group but I disagree. If you tell the group and help when help is needed, there is nothing wrong with it. Your not doing anything that is against the rules of SWG, and you are only using a weapon in the manner it was designed. BTW, even if the group didn't know you were grinding w/ nades and then see that you are, they can always kick you out of the groupif they do not like it- so....

I am very pleased to see that most of us understand that nade grinding is ok as long s\as your group is cool with it. Now can everyone drop the whole complaining issue, and as previously stated, if somone in you group does it and you dont like it, kick him

I've done and tried everything under the sun to make it to Jedi and that includes grinding some with nades. Doesn't matter what other people think, its your character not theirs. You pay the same amount of money every month as they do to play your character the way you want. Most people who complain on these boards do it to get a rise out of someone.

as long as they do it smart, and tell us beforehand, I don't mind. But it's the ones that don't know how to do it, nade the same lair 20 times, get our docs killed by getting revive aggro, and just sit there the rest of the time that bother me.

AT LEAST do something productive if you are going to nade. Be a Squad Leader, or Doctor and keep buffs up, then the group will be happy...

Im not sure why people complain just cause someone does something faster than them. there is a culture here that because someone has been around longer or has done something the harder way that those who have had to invest less effor tor time are less worthy of anything the game has to offer. I dont care if you master jedi in 24 hours, if you cannot fight with the char, then people will pwn' you regularly. If you can, then you will survive. do what is good for you and go about your business.

Just out of curiousity, has anyone tried doing a Nade only group? It does seem possible to have everyone using grenades to take down the mob, all you would have to do is coordinate the attacks.

not really.. unless they were commandos... I'm not sure what the timers were on c12's, but my c22's are 45 second timers, and only do about 300 damage tops, a lot of the time under 100. With most lvl 80 mobs having around 5-7k health, the group would prolly die before you got close to taking down the lair..

it would be worth a shot tho, because there's a lot of variables in it...
