Which makes no sense when you figure that Wookies are supposed to be among the most technoligically adaptable races in the galaxy.

unfortunately this is true wooks are primitive tree dwelling creatures barely fit for the imperial slave collar. so they need to be trained in novice commando skills before they can utilize even the simplest grenades.
whoa now... I SWEAR that my wook has a C12 cert. of course, with TC still down, I can't back this up.
let me say then: I'm really pretty kinda certain that the C12 cert for wooks was fixed, amazing and unlikely as that sounds.
REALLY... I'll check this later... when I have a server to log on to. /grumble you Live players with your stinky servers that don't get pulled for 23-days-at-a-time.

they shut it down on the 4th... made a copy on the 6th... opened it VERY briefly (under a rollback clause) during the JTL beta... and then dropped it.
the word from the devs is that it'll be back today... so... 23 days, several weeks...
yeah. been down, and all the TC regulars are going stir crazy.

I'm a Wookie wantabe rifleman 2-1-2-2 so far God this is slow going, When I read this I was think WOW this sound great speed = friend and thats what I want.
So I log my Wookie on off to buy some grenades on the bazzar found some for 500 credits off to the woods found some lowly penolopes for my nonbuffed Wookie to try this method on. Shot the Lair with my T-21 and 3 penolopes spawn I walk to the lair and throw a grenade ( yes Wookies are certified in grenades I checked my character) the lair was damaged but no damage to the critters, threw all 5 of my nades no damage to the critter just me the dumb Wookie taking damage and the lair.
So I thought well maybe I got some defective grenades C-12's mind you. So I went to Grenades Glore and spent 90K on a crate of 25 grenades (which is way too much in my opinion). Back off to face the fearsome Penolopes still the Lair is the only thing taking damage.
What am I doing wrong?
prolly lag. sometimes server lag can cause the critter to stop attacking or not attck at all. the ideal thing to do this on are quenkers make sure 6 of them are attacking you. to get them to tattack take a quenker mission on dantooine wear your best wook kinetic armour and make sure you have at least novice medic and a rack of stimb.
walk up tot he lair, stand in the lair, start shooting the lair, keep shooting till you get 5-6 quenkers on you and then start chucking grenades at the lair while your standing in it.
5 grenades of 5 charges each and then killof the quenkers with your rifle. rinse repeat.
i havent heard of a wook cert for the C12 but if it was fixed check your combat logs. a C12 with cert should do around 300-450 damage per quenker.

this is what my Wookie show for grenade certification: "cert grenade framentation lightagmetation light.
Back out in the Woods this Wookie went trusting Barb-Wire know what their talking about, this is how my combat log read remember I am standing in the middle of the lair and have the lair targeted and I have 6 critters surrounding this lowly Wookie.
you use a fragmentation grenade on a quenker for 90 points of damage
you use a fragmentation grenade on a quenker for 94 points of damage
This is listed for all six critters
90 points of damage ! my lord that is not going to work. I'm not about to go to a hurton stalker lair and try this.
Oh and by the way I have 2 other characters that are not Wookies and their certifications for grenades read the same.
Sorry Barb-Wire your theory doesn't work
