I as told that nades are still a viable way to get xp in the Post CU world.
My question is, If I start off a fight with a nade, then kill it with swords or pike, will I get the full xp for the nade?

No I think you get a fraction for the nades but the majority will be swords. Best way to get full for nades is get in a group, have the other group members tank and you just toss nades. Easy, risk free, full xp.

or you could just not cheat with the nade grind and get it the proper way through combat grind.
Yeah others in group will hate you for tossin a nade and runnin back to let them kill the beastie while you rake in XP. In fact, they may do what we did. Dude tosses a nade and runs back to let us fight. So we slowly work our way back to the nade tosser n runner then /peace the critter and run and he gets whacked and deathblowed by critter!! Hahaha.

propoer way? so we should intenally choose the longer, more mind numbing path insted of the quck easy way when both outcomes are exactly the same? by useing double xp and nades to my advantage I went from 2 FS trees to 5 with banked xp for the 6th in 3 days. who cares if its cheap, it works.
oh and lead the groups if you nade grind and get all CL 75 and above ppl in your group. that way no one can kick you and you have higer lvl ppl to kill the creatures for you. I would run in at the spawn and toss a nade and then sit back and watch the group pull in 14k combat xp per kill

No old rules still apply. The best bet is to go with a grind group of friends. Throw one nade at the lair every once in a while and you will watch the combat xp roll on in. If you use a weapon like always the xp is shared with all weapons used. If you throw at the lair and you are with say a bunch of jedi friends that are spinning the lair you will always hit the lair and everything arround it. I say take a melee group so that all the critters are at the lair when you toss.

I'm a Master Commando. So if I use "nades" to gain xp, that's cheating? I may be missing something here, but "nades" is a whole line in Commando, it's 1/4 of our weapons. I vote that "nades" are not cheating.

Ya know it is not a cheat. Also if you group with friends they should not mind you using nades to get combat xp for FS. I know my friends are the ones that turned me onto it. We all work together to get people what they need. It is like saying that if I need carbine xp I should not use my carbine in the group. They may not be doing much but hey help your friends out. One day you may need to do the same thing.

I think the problem most dont realize is once you through the nade you will pull the aggro. The nades are AOE now so tossing one causes all the creatures around the area to pull towards you. Almost instant incap. It is unfair to the group. You are depending on the rest of the group to save your butt. My advice to you if you decide to still grind with nades is ask the group beforehand. Personally if I am in a group and see a nade pop out I will disband and find another, if you are the leader let people know what you are doing and then they can decide. Ive seen groups do nothing and watch the guy get incapped 3 times then die, then while he is gone to the cloner finish off the lair. All I saw in group chat was "why didnt you guys help" IMO It takes too long to finish off a lair with someone nade grinding. Most groups want help from everyone, concentrate on one target at a time and you get through them faster.
