I tried grinding with C12 tonite for the first time......
Lets just say I had a bad experience.....
I got a Giant Baz Nitch mission, went to the lair, starting chucking nades, and they were doing very little damage to the suckers. I was standing there throwing nades and they were doing minimal damage (maybe 600). I was doing this for so long they finally ganged up on me killed me, and DBed.
Anyone have any advice??

I had that problem too... but hey... when I killed them I gained lotsa xp 
Just do like I do:
Just do like I do:First, normal and Mind buffs are a must, also wear comp 
(Hope you had these... hehe)
(Hope you had these... hehe)Second, attack the lair normally until u have about three of them on you, then start chuckung grenades at them... if your HAM goes down to 1/3, use any apin attack u have and kill them all.... This worked for me and I still gained lotsa Combat xp even though I didn't kill them using only C12...

Yeah I had buffs and mind buffs with so-so comp armor. around 55-60% I believe. Guess I'll try again, maybe something a little less fierce.

I'd consider going commando 3/x/x/x and using Imperial Dets....They are 100x faster than C12s and you can cap out Combat xp almost 2x in a crate.

I believe you will be wanting blast resist as well, nades have to be thrown within their blast radius, no?
Or has that changed?

I personally don't think Giant Baz are that good. They have a bit higher resis and more HP. I prefer either Gaping spiders or noraml Baz nitches. They give a bit less XP but are quicker.

3 Reasons come to mind.
1. Your grenades are lousy and don't deal out enough damage.
2. Your armor has lousy resistances or they chewed it up.
3. Both 1 and 2

I agree, at least get novice commando and use C22s. Your grinding experience will be much less painful.

1. C12s are meant to average ~600 damage. You're not a commando.
2. You don't need comp armor. They only do kinetic damage and I've never had to heal myself whilst standing in a circle of baz nitches, throwing grenades.
Unrelated:
3. Start lunging at the weaker baz nitches once they start to scurry off, unless you want them to warp out to 90m.

/agree. I just go after the normal Biz natches....much less painful.

im a master commando.
i had the same kinda problem with c12s. well i didnt die and stuff but they are WAY too slow.
i use proton grenades (only because im M commando) and damn they are alot faster.
im not too sure what u can do. maybe pick up novice commando and use c22
