Are pulse grenades any good in MP?
Yes…but only in its first second right after you throw it, the circle which it creates afterwards is pretty much useless
Just weaken ur opponent a little and then pop ur pulse grenade. It’s easier to hit ur target, since it wont bounce.
Also, you’ll get a lot of easy pulse grenade kills by just spamming the hill with them in koth. Or just throw them in the hotspot when playing rumble pit.
Hmmm… I’ve never had or seen any pulse grenade kill…
i depends on how you use it i never liked it but i have seen people use it very well to get kills or lower enemy shields
If someone throws it at me, I’m usually gone before it even lands so i wonder how would anyone got his shields depleted by it…
I’ve tried using Pulse Grenades before, but never had much luck with them. But nekrulz tactics coule be rather useful. They do damage shields over time, but do the most damage when they first activate. Otherwise, it’s rather dificult to get any kills, or sometimes damage for that matter, in a game mode such as Slayer. They’re very easy to dodge and get out of. I wouldn’t recomend using them in anything other than CFT or KoTH.
I just really wondered if they can be actually used efficiently… But i see they can’t 
Very hard to score with pulses. Most folks get away by the time it goes off. Try it out when your target is distracted and in a cramped space.
It’s not very helpful that in MP you can only start with ONE pulse in your loadout.
At least they are effective against Crawlers in the campaign…
During campaign or Spartan Ops.
They’re great if you want to take shields down.
I’ve heard Pulse Grenades called “area denial” weapons. Throw it in a corridor to keep people out for a few seconds, or block off a doorway or two with them and have your teammates flank from the other side. They can either face your team or hope to run through the grenade without dying, and they’ll lose shields if they try that. I also find it a good “trick” weapon. I was on Solace once, in the lower level, and threw a pulse grenade into the ramp leading into the enemy base. I started shooting a guy and he backpedaled into the pulse grenade and died. Very nice.

This.
Primarily they’re for forcing enemies to keep a distance from you when you’re weak.
Also, if you trade melees with someone you can toss a pulse grenade at their feet to kill them almost instantaneously. They usually won’t have time to shoot or go for a second beatdown.
They take some practice to master, but they’re lethal at the hands of pros.
I never use them. Usually people would get out of there before it goes off.
I see … Very strategical purposes… Only good in hands of pros… Ok, got it

Translation: Don’t bother using them.

Yes, turret users and players with low or no shields. Snipers and campers can be caught off-guard too
Not as powerful or useful as plasma grenades in my opinion.
They have no use unless your enemies are willing to stand still
