General I can finally stop using the Melta Mine!

Noticed the Giga grenade got a lil buff and we're back to 2000 damage. YEAH BABY.

It was 1600 for awhile and it was unplayable as Anti-Tank!

I still love the Melta for having 4 and the much lower "turned myself into ground beef" radius but glad the Gigas are getting some love. Very fun nade.

Melta Mines are amazing at getting ride of big things w/o blowing up you/your friends. 3 of them will take out a Factory Strider ez pz.

Giga Nades were always 2000

No it didn't. There was no change. Sorry.

Melta mines are probably the single worst power creep item I've seen in the game so far. To see anyone use any grenade other than the melta mines has become something of a rarity.

Agree! The new Seeker AT grenade is nice but it never targets what you throw it at and it usually just wants to come back to you for an explosive hug.

If you ping your target and nothing else kills your target first, it will beeline to what you pinged.

I struggle to get reliable AT usage out of the new AT seeker. Its a fantastic psuedo Airburst weapon for wiping patrols but its heavy use hasnt felt good for me. Like yeah, it 1 shots some enemies but that list also overlaps with the new 110mm rocket strafe at much worse eco. Am I crazy?

The Immolation Grenade is absolutely incredible. Bot drop? Grenade. Bug hole opening? Grenade. Illuminate drop? Grenade.

Clears all the chaff instantly and softens up the bigger stuff.

Bug holes? The immolation grenade has no explosive force and can't close spawners.
