Sticky 'Det is SO inconsistant

I just cannot get my head round why sometimes the Sticky 'Det is powerful as Jazz but other times it’s like a party popper?

What gives?

I disagree, I’ve been finding it pretty consistent. The problems you’re having might be a problem of latency, because I haven’t noticed any issues with it.

Yea, I agree with you. Could be lag. Just yesterday I managed to get a triple kill with it. They were 3 different shots too.

I’m terrible with it. Sometimes it feels like it lands where I want, other times I completely miss my target. Also can’t seem to get the whole “short shot and RB to detonate, long shot and it detonates on its own” mechanic of it down. Which I hate because it seems so useful.

I do love the “PING!” noise that it makes when fired, and the fact that it gives you a little radar screen after you launch (which I only noticed yesterday!). It’s awesome how you can booby-trap ordnance with it, or stick one to a teammate and have them “deliver” it to the enemy…

Just wish I was better with it!

I’ve actually stuck it to a Banshee, then drove it into the enemy Wraith, jumped out, detonated, and landed the most badass double kill of all time.

That’s so sick! I hope you saved that one!

I’ve stuck an enemy player, detonated it, and got an assist.

I hope you saved that video man.

If you don’t have the video then it didn’t happen. Just sayin’.

i agree that and the scattershot,its irritating.

i found, at least in my own experience, that it does more damage to someone when detonated behind them rather than in front of them. I have activated where the guy was standing no more than a foot away and it only took his shields out. Then i used detonated it after someone sprinted past it (they weren’t over it) and it killed them. I think it may have something to do with how beat downs work. You can easily kill someone with a beat down from the back but it takes 2 beat down from the front
