A grenade that has proximity detonation. Say if someone is on top of a roof where i try to throw a nade and if im close it will detonate early but if not it acts as a regular nade timer.

Have dmg be half of the regular nades
Basic 3m with 6m blast radius, half dmg of basic
Advanced 4m with 7m blast radius, half dmg of adv
Prototype 5m with 8m blast radius, hald dmg of pro

One problem might be cqc if i throw one and they are close to me killing me in the process.

My other idea is why dont we have claymores? Set one up and leave for some poor soul to detonate it when they walk by.

Thoughts????

lol then what would be the point of contract grenades with prox grenades

I guess it can replace them with a new class since it is very similar. Personally i like the idea of contact nades but if you over throw or under throw then you wasted that nade and you only get 1.

Maybe we can still have contact nades. But we only get 1. Where as proxies we can get 2 and regular we get 2.
We get 3 av and 2 fluxes and 2 regular or 1 contact.
I think we should 3 AV, 3 flux, 2 proxi, 2 regular, 1 contact.

I like the fact that you're not pushing for them to be as powerful as nades, but there will need to be some limitations on that kind of thing if it is introduced. I, personally, am leery of such mechanics in game because i have seen said mechanics used exploitively to the detriment of the game, or they are borderline worthless with very little in between. But the idea is one i have tossed around in my head once or thrice. WoW has taught me that Purple means Legendary. This means Quafe suits are the optimal loadout for killing all of you.

It can soften up and slow incoming infantry, but likely won't kill, and can be evaded entirely by alert mercs. #PortDust514

The distance of tosses got halved. Haven't heard nearly the complaints since. I think they are in a good place, and that the suggestion they are frisbees to be no longer accurate.
