Nocturnal Soul Primordial Threat 7	Posted - 2015.07.21 21:00:00 - [1] - Quote Why must you have core locus to kill people? Militia BPO grenades only have one instead of 2 Standard only does like 200 damage And advance only does 400 which is just enough to OHK a scout. Buff lower tier grenades!!!

Lightning35 Delta514 48TH SPECIAL OPERATIONS FORCE 1	Posted - 2015.07.21 21:15:00 - [2] - Quote That what I always say. People want to nerf the core but you shouldn't. It's the ONLY effective grenade. The standard and advanced ones need a buff. The basic does 300, it should do 400. The advanced does 400, it should do 500. The core should remain the same with 600 damage. CEO of 48SOF Scout GK.0/Assault GK.0

DeadlyAztec11 Defenders of the Helghast Dream 8	Posted - 2015.07.21 21:28:00 - [4] - Quote You are acting like explosives don't destroy armor. Also I don't believe that every grenade should be a one shot kill because then there isn't a reason to have higher tier grenades and it turns into a win button. It's similar to why a Militia Sniper Rifle can't kill any suit with a head shot and why militia Nova Knives can't carve through every suit in one strike. Also when most advanced suits are running around with between 6-700 HP taking away 600 of that leaves you on the brink of death and completely destroys militia and standard. Put your flags up in the sky. And wave them side to side. Show the world where you're from. Show the world we are one.

Larkson Crazy Eye WarRavens RUST415 112	Posted - 2015.07.21 22:17:00 - [9] - Quote I will say lower tier grenades are okay, if a bit gimpy. What I do hate however is that they cost the same far as I can tell to restock on nano hives and supply depots as higher tier stuff. it would be nice if a front line unit trying to spam their crappy grenade wouldn't lock the supply depot so I can't get anything out of it. Another glitch I'd like to see fixed is the flux grenade. While people complain about the dmg one way or another I would love to see the AoE fixed. It doesn't seem that the visual effect is the actual AoE. People inside the dome don't always loose their shields and it seems to have no vernicle hit detection. You can go threw walls with the flux, but you can't get anything on a ceiling even if you time it to explode right at the roof. This also leads to scouts simply jumping over the flux effect at times even though it looks like their inside of the dome.

Yes they do, every time. I think you're just not realizing how thick the ceilings are some places. On the roof over the point in the production facility, on the roof with the null cannon overlooking the point where it's above the supply depot, not to mention on any of those flat roofed completely glitched buildings that everything shoots through.

Union118 GamersForChrist 589	Posted - 2015.07.22 02:24:00 - [14] - Quote Just increase blast radios and shorten the fuse after you hold it and you click it with you hand. Iv noticed people just run past my nade and take no damage to what seems very close range. Iv planted one by my feet once and it didnt kill me or my opponent. Idk how but im sure its blast radios.

Sicerly Yaw Corrosive Synergy No Context 684	Posted - 2015.07.22 03:01:00 - [17] - Quote I agree but first grande visibility needs to be increased and cooking a nade needs to either take more skill or have countermeasures as it is now unless you look in the general direction of the nade you cant see it so there's no way for you to know which way you should be going to evade it and if someone cooks it up there is almost no way to avoid it the only indicator is the beeping that it makes but that can be quickly drowned out by the sounds of other things such as rifles there isn't much of a way to avoid being hit either and the core nade has a big enough radius where you only have to throw it in the general direction to get the kill If nades were able to be shot down or pre exploded by shooting at it while the user is cooking it up there would be a risk to using them so the reward would be justified I believe it is already possible to explode an RE out of someones hands as I shot a player with a SG that was carrying around proxies and somehow got killed by a Proxy which made no sense to me but if that could happen to nades it would make things more interesting especially if a flux nade could make it go off prematurely if the heavies got a hand held shield they could block the blast and keep friendlies safe making it easier to push when there is nade spam there just needs to be ways to counter nades to make it fair and justify buffing them click here if you are making a new account and want some free BPO's

Draconic Presence Bad Blueberries 32	Posted - 2015.07.22 04:07:00 - [19] - Quote It sounds like grenades are just as dangerous in this game as they are in reality...and you people don't seem to appreciate it. Do you just suck at using grenades and it upsets you when you get blown up? Or does mass driver spam bother you too? Many seem to *** about core locus because people who know how to cook it right can OHK, what about a properly cooked and placed M8? Same damage profile different blast radius. Give us a grenadier class where we can swap light and sidearm for grenades. Then we can run around with 3 slots full of different grenades in a myofib stacked suit punching fools to death or blowing them up. As a grenade user, I feel they're fine. The basic gives you an extra grenade over militia, the advanced gives a decent buff for damage, lvl. 4 gives the damage of a core but forces you to be more precise with your throw, and the core does what a grenade really should. And packed AV grenades are dope. Grenade spam over a hive is scrubby, but so are cloaked shotgun scouts. Or are people just using the tools at their disposal to effectively destroy their enemies? I have to pop ** with you, because you're all a bunch of pussies. Always ready for Gallente FW or ambush. Stack ISK, SP, and LP. Lookin' for chill people to squad up 0200-0600.

I have to pop ** with you, because you're all a bunch of pussies. You know for all you people quoting realism on grenades you seem to ignore the rest of the Dust world. Getting run over by a freaking drop ship or tank doesn't always kill you. A 80mm cannon takes several shots to kill you... Mass drivers, lasers, sniper riffles, machine guns etc all take several shots for the most part to kill a decently outfitted suit. Yet you try and claim a grenade should kill 90% of the suits out there in one shot because grenades are dangerous in real life? How man times you surived getting hosed down by an assault riffle? Should everything in Dust be one shot, one kill because they are dangerous in real life?

Well other than remotes cause well those pack a punch. You might survive a basic explosive if your at full HP and shields, but other wise they will one shot you pretty easily.

Balistyc Farshot MONSTER SYNERGY 312	Posted - 2015.07.22 16:10:00 - [29] - Quote I don't find grenades dangerous at all. Sorry, I just shrug them off. I would like to see maybe the cal sent get resist to flux nades over explosives. I also would like the other sents bonus against explosives up to make it worth while, but that is me being greedy. What we need is more variety in grenades. Provide an explosive grenade with a huge blast radius but smaller dmg output for anti scouts. They could also make a grenade that sticks to surfaces, for those fun throws onto roofs and other elevated positions. Don't change, add to increase the options and wash out the calls for change. Like they did with sidearms. "Dying with your rep tool out - the logi-flasher!" Who hasn't been caught by a cute little female scout doing this?

Sniper Rifles are railguns that fire a 2-inch slug at 2,500m/s, yet takes multiple headshots to down a sentinel..? Not if you headshot them right. Don't get me wrong...I hate snipers. I hate being killed by snipers who sit in the redline like little scared whimps. I especially hate getting killed by Officer snipers. That being said....I used to snipe and even sometimes if i see stupid people camping in stupid locations because they're too scared to damage their KDR, i'll whip out a militia sniper rifle bpo and headshots are not a problem for me with two damage mods. So maybe your aim is off? or maybe you should try an advanced sniper rifle. You might get the results you desire then. *KEQ Diplomat* Gallente Loyalist ... Come at me bro.

The core should remain the same with 600 damage. Let's take it a step further How about making it a 5-10% difference per tier like nearly every other weapon in the game? Militia/Basic: 550, damage, 6m radius Advanced: 575 damage, 6.6m radius Proto: 600 damage, 7.2m radius Prototype mass drivers don't deal twice as much splash damage per shot over a standard mass driver, why the hell do cores deal twice the damage of a standard grenade in addition to their larger radius? If the answer against buffing them is "because then the standard and advanced grenades would be too powerful", what the hell does that say about the prototype ones?
