Firebolt grenades have had a terribly slow activation timer since their nerf in THE HOUSE OF WOLVES.
I have wanted to use them since their nerf like 6 years ago when they were too powerful due to the Viking funeral thing I used to main but even with their change at the beginning of the season their activation timer is still way to slow to hit targets.
Even in PVE, targets sometimes move just a little too much once the grenade lands and though you would expect the nade to hit, it just doesn’t target.
This is the only real thing holding this grenade back and makes it very frustrating to use. Just match its targeting timer to arcbolt or give it the pre House of Wolves timer and it will work as intended again.

Its current use is to eat the grenade to proc the perk on top tree dawn due to its low cooldown. This grenade definitely feels terrible, even the sticky nades are much more consistent.
