darn grenades

Does anyone else think the grenades are very overpowered? One frag to the face kills you or if you have half a shield and full health it kills… They bounce way too much as well…

My only problem with them is that the radius is too big, it’s too hard to avoid even if you jump.

Watch this…

yaah the radius is ridiculous as well as the rocket launcher radius.

Yes.

For the millionth time.

How many times does someone need to say “Nades are overpowered, herp derp”?

When in doubt, spam that left trigger!

that is correct

You have 99% shields and 100% health and because the shields aren’t 100 percent you die from a frag. Wtf? ONE: It should have a 3 second count till they blow, or at least a 2 second. As it is it explodes almost before it leaves your hand. and TWO: It should take 1 sticky or 2 frags to kill you. Take out some shields and finish off with another. Sticky grenades I remember from the past you could survive sometimes even if you were stuck, granted you had 1 bar of health left. But it always took more than 1 and there wasn’t a split second to dodge in case it got bounced back. As for the rocket launcher I agree, less radius would be nice.

It doesn’t help that you move so slowly in reach. Last night I played H3 for the first time in almost two years, and avoiding grenades is easy if you know what you’re doing. In reach even if you strafe away and jump + crouch, you’re still likely to take damage.

That’s what I do. When I know I’m going to die I empty out all my grenades at my enemies. Sometimes I kill them from the grave. Not too often it works though. I do the same with rockets. When I’m being shot at and I’m almost dead I shoot all the remaining rockets so they can’t have them. Sometimes I kill them before they kill me but most of the time I end up dying.

AL, JP and Sprint all have a countering effect to nades.
