impact grenade>>> any other explosiv grenade

[Kanjejou]

what the point of using grenade that need cooking and barely destroy armor or deal damages because of damage fall off

[Silverlight]

Impact grenades sometimes hit a bug hole at the wrong angle .

I always bring cook grenades for bug holes

[Aldain]

Not accidentally beaning an ally in the head and sending them to meet God?

I enjoy incendiary grenades, but yeah impact are the best. Sometimes a bit of a ♥♥♥♥♥ to throw inside nests or bots barracks or whatever.

[Vespertellino]

They're def the best until something is right in front of you

[Sk[A]rMo'Ry2012]

Automaton factories are impact grenade proof, until you throw it at opening door. Someone has to do stuff like this!

[adobo]

Its the best till something flies right in front of you and you explode yourself.

[DarkFenix]

Impacts are terrible for destroying bug holes, that fact alone means I don't bring them.

Throw it a bit lower than cook grenade. Aim just barely above the bottom circle.

Bring timed grenades if you want to kill team members because of your poor throwing abilities or bouncing shenanigans because they are virtually invisible.

Prefer regular ones since it easier to lob them into fabricators or bugholes.
It isn't hard to cook or just time the grenade throw like you would many of the strategems.

Finding impacts to be superior functionally when trying to target weakpoints, but rarely use grenades for that function anyway after unlocking more stuff.

If you want to get away from bot waves you can use smoke grenades to retreat and flank, they work wonderfully.

Impact nades eat Bile Spewers for breakfast. Quick throw, quick kill.

[Garble]

my only "complaint" about impact nades is that they have to hit holes/fabricators at just the right angle or they don't destroy them.

Other than that I think they're way better.

[OKMB]

Depends on the mission.

Blitz works better with regular explosive grenades, and Bot missions are generally easier with regular grenades instead of impact grenades.

If you're playing with a team, having some people with impacts to thin hordes and others with reg-grenades to clear holes/factories is a good way to play. Maybe drop one reg and have them take Smokes against Bots.

Isn't it funny that Automaton grenades have a GIANT RED BLINKING DISCO LIGHT ON THEM but our own grenades are like completely invisible tiny indistinct things you lose track of as soon as it leaves your hand?
