Lightning Grenades

So nearly three years since Bungie released this "faultless" game and lightning grenades are still one bursting people through walls, around corners, way out of their "range restrictions", upside down, inside out, from the game previous to the one you are in, from last weeks match from the other teams spawn... ok I'm exaggerating (on the last two!) Bungie are you blind? I am talking about the irratic range/cone glitch. If something doesn't behave the same every time how can players learn to counter play it. That's like giving us random blanks in our gun... oh wait you did that as well didn't you with ghost bullets. \:)

    How about we talk about how lightning grenades never seem to stick the way they're supposed to? They'll find a flat wall and angle their burst towards it when they land. Lolol In all seriousness, lightning grenades need a more accurate graphic representation, but that's it. They're fine themselves as grenades. Perhaps a bit glitchy at times, but then again, what isn't in this game?

      Lightning grenades do a total of 122 damage per burst, with four bursts per grenade. The lowest amount of health a person can be at is around 186. Lightning grenades cannot one burst someone at full health, or even at certain portions of reduced health. As for the range and cone, neither of them matches the animation on Lightning grenades or Spike grenades. Both animations should be changed to match the actual range and cone.

            • How about we buff the grenades that need a buff instead of nerfing the ones that are actually good?

                      I've seen people accidentally shoot wall grenades out of the air because they're spraying at the target throwing them. Any area-of-effect ability will destroy the grenade mid-flight or even while mounted. If it wasn't for this Achille's heel I think Bungie and others would concede they need nerfed or somehow balanced. But the fact is, they don't always land correctly, not every map has ideal flat surfaces, and they can be destroyed by any incoming damage. Hell, sometimes it hits the target and falls on the ground, missing the intended target. Sometimes this happening causes the grenade to grind itself to dust against the target for a bunch of single digit numbers of damage. Truly, these grenades are not at all a problem unless you ignore positioning. What they need to do is make a better visual representation of the cone so people aren't misled by the lack of pixels illustrating the exact dimensions of the cone. Spike grenade is more fair in this regard, but can be blinding, which is in a way an added effect which you probably don't want to add to Lightning Grenades if they piss you off already. I'm sorry but nerfing Lightning Grenades would literally be the end of Strikers and Titans in general. Do. Not. Want. A. Nerf. Edit: But if you're just saying the buggy stuff needs fixed, then nobody can really argue against that.

                        One bursting? I'm using these constantly and never one-hitted anyone. This because it does 122 damage per burst, that's a little over half someones health.

                        • Buff other grenades. Lightning grenades were never an issue in year 1, or even early year 2.

                        • Dude, there are things more user friendly for newer and less skilled players and they need to stay in the game so these folks remain engaged and playing. DON'T NERF LIGHTNING GRENADES.....and any number of other things that bring frequent complaints. Talk on this board doesn't matter anyway.

                          • Lighting grenades have always been very weird. Hell for the longest time I'd end up dying to them because they'd always stick to places I don't want them to but at the same time they'll go in the perfect spot and wipe anyone there out.

                            • I agree to this post if and only if they fix the spike nades. You can still take damage after it goes away. I love how people dont talk about the b.s. on there subclass but is quick asf to talk about other players subclasses. Like whose really bias [spoiler]just another cry baby hunter post.[/spoiler]

                              • Let the titan have a good thing, I mean hell unless you're hit already, it doesn't one shot like sticky grenades, let them be, you can easily shoot them off the wall too I've seen it done plenty of times after that person gets hit with it

                                • Lightning grenades can't one burst people unless they were already damaged. Also it's like a burst then 3-5 second wait so if you don't move back it's your fault
