Nerf Grenades

Is it just me or is the most common way to get killed in this game from people throwing nades on these small arena maps. Everybody spawns with two frags and there is so many nades that spawn on the map and people just chuck em and hope for the best and the blast radius for this game feels so large. i feel like there should be less on the map and players should spawn with only one. Promethian nades are the worst!!!

Promethean grenades can act like a defense too. Throw it in front of yourself and don’t run into. Then start sniping with a Lightrifle zoomed in. Most likely some guy will try to spartan charge you and not see the splinter wall. Always gotta change it up though! Grenades are too bouncy in my opinion. I don’t remember if it has always been like that…

Grenades are fine if you can’t avoid them step up your game. Thrust out of the way it’s super easy…

my only issue wit grenades is a little too much bounce on shallow inclines, I remember Halo 3 as being able to get a good bounce provided you went off a wall and had a good angle equally you could pretty much skate a nade along the floor if you threw shallow, Halo 5 nades do seem to want to bounce an awful lot more.

That said, these are always fun. Hail Mary Grenade - YouTube

why the heck does everyone wants everything nerfed?
theres not a single weapon in halo 5 that needs to be nerfed just encountered differently
even THE ANSWER or anything as powerful isn’t unbeatable just difficult
I’m no pro, more a noob with lot’s of halo experience #)) if you get killed you’ve dine something wrong…imo
just stop those nerfing this and that please

Sounds like your real issue is your playstyle

Promethean nades are just too noob friendly. I don’t care about the frags, and I RARELY get killed with a sticky unless it stuck me. Those -Yoinking!- splinter nades tho. Oh this guy is shooting me from the side? Just turn, throw a promethean nade in that direction and he’s dead. It’s ridiculous.

Play CE before you complain about grenades.

Fun fact: We have more mobility options than we have ever had before, use them to avoid incoming explosives.

The Splinter nades do need a bit of tuning, to be sure, but at least they’re more useful than those godawful pulse grenades from Halo 4. I don’t remember a single instance where those were even halfway useful.

Which is great for frags/plasmas (minus being stuck) but for splinter nades you CAN’T. If someone throws it at you there is no “dodge” because it just blows up on top of you without any delay.

@EGU Trespa5s that’s why the splinter is more rare i think and you still have to aim

Prometheon grenades are the only ones i have a problem with.

There’s no point in having increased mobility to dodge grenades if they are just gonna increase the blast radius from previous games. Also its a lot harder to dodge grenades in this halo because the maps are so cluttered there’s barely enough room to dodge most of the time.

its not hard to dodge regular nades with dash sometimes the enemy anticipates your escape and throws it a little in that direction to make you move towards him.

Look back CE’s grenades…

Grenades are fairly easy to avoid, the only time I have had issues was when the entire team would spam their grenades into one area but then again thats the core concept of “explosives”

I feel like the grenades are fine. I personally hated it in Halo 4 that the grenades were so terrible, I’m glad they’ve been given the proper amount of power.
