Hola fellow MWS's,
I was recently making some 'nades and I was slightly mystified as to what some of the optional components are in some grenades and mines. I have made a list (including the known ones for completeness):
Heavy Warhead: ?? used in what?
Chemical Warhead: ?? used in what?
Chemical Warhead: ?? used in what?
C22: Warhead Effect Booster: Kliknik Glands, Acklay Venom - 'Explosive Charge Composition'
C22: Fragmentation Effect Enhancer: ?? - 'Enhanced Effect Fragmentation Sleeve'
C22: Warhead Enhancer Assembly: ?? - 'Enhanced Explosive Charge Shaping'
Cryoban: Warhead Effect Booster: Kliknik Glands, Acklay Venom - 'Explosive Charge Composition'
Glop: Warhead Effect Booster: Kliknik Glands, Acklay Venom - 'Explosive Charge Composition'
Imperial Detonator: Warhaed Effect Booster: ?? 'Enhanced Destructive Pulse Channeling'
Proton: Warhaed Effect Booster: ?? 'Enhanced Destructive Pulse Channeling'
Thermal Detonator: Warhaed Effect Booster: ?? 'Enhanced Destructive Pulse Channeling'
Glop: Warhead Effect Booster: Kliknik Glands, Acklay Venom - 'Explosive Charge Composition'
Imperial Detonator: Warhaed Effect Booster: ?? 'Enhanced Destructive Pulse Channeling'
Proton: Warhaed Effect Booster: ?? 'Enhanced Destructive Pulse Channeling'
Thermal Detonator: Warhaed Effect Booster: ?? 'Enhanced Destructive Pulse Channeling'
DRX Mine: Warhaed effect Booster: ?? 'Enhanced Destructive Pulse Channeling'
Anti Vehicle Mine: Warhead effect Booster: ?? 'Enhanced Destructive Pulse Channeling'
Anti Vehicle Mine: Warhead effect Booster: ?? 'Enhanced Destructive Pulse Channeling'
I put a CSR ticket in and I was told:
'Unfortunately we are unable to give out in game hints or tips. If you're unable to figure out what to do with these items we suggest speaking to other crafters or checking the message boards at starwarsgalaxies.com.'
I have figured out what to do I think, simply ignore these optional components and spurious sub-components. Is this the indented function of these items then, to confer ignorance somehow? Or is it supposed to be some unsolvable mystery. Can anyone here shed any light on the possible identity of these optional components?
While I am posting on Grenades, how do I get the Zic bug bomb schematic? (spelling uncertain here)
Toma.

I was told by one of the best smiths on the server that these were relics from when Commandos built nades in beta

No schematic for the bug bomb, you do the quest and you get one, worse stats than C12 except Meduim AP.
Quest starts on Rori, in Narmle, you turn right once you exit starport and the NPC is about 50-100m behind a gate.After you talk to him, you have to go to Wayfar and do some stuff, then go back to Narmle with the parts and the first guy than makes the bomb for you.
It is actually a pretty good quest, just wish the reward was better.

It had me confused for ages too, til I asked on here. 
As for CSRs.
Well, they fix problems. They have little knowledge of the game as a whole, and almost *definitely* won't have an idea about something that isn't a bug, and is restricted to 'weaponsmiths who make grenades', as that's a *tiny* sub-category of players. 
So, the only thing you can enhance is:
C22s
Glops
Cryoban

If its the case that these issues are left over from historic changes to the commando profession, then is it possible that some one will remember more about these items?
Or were these items never available and never used - even during the commando weapon crafting phase?

Stuff left over from Beta... yes Beta... Commandos making nades never made it to live. I don' t think the Devs even realize this, as they added the Demolitionist' s toolbelt schematic to the themeparks... more useless junkin the game.
