Hey man when you can simply drop an RE and kill everyone within its blast radius in a little over 2 seconds that's a little ridiculous. We should have a bigger window to escape instead of spending those two seconds of arming time turning our fatasses around and preparing to run. Its impossible to escape them in anything less than a medium suit, yet kills heavies with ease. Nobody wants to nerf its arming time so tweak its damage so heavies can actually survive one blast, that way you can use it as a crippling tool rather than an easy win button.

Lobbying for Heavy 514.


After the hotfix, RE will be the only existing counter to a heavy blob right now. Also, it's one of the few remaining useful AV weapons.


You can't nerf RE without taking into account how that would affect the balance against vehicles and heavies.

increasing arming time shouldn't increase the speed in which you deploy them, on the time between thrown and detonation when rapidly pressing L1

My base opinion is that RE's have too much overlap with grenades...and are simply more useful in many ways.

Ok, just to be clear, you believe that REs are fine as they are?
