Range of [Smoke Granade], Just tossing by under hand, why it reach 100ft? :confused:
[Flag Grenade] range is 50 ft.

Even [Hand Guns] or [Sub Machine Gun] range are 50ft.

I think throwing some objects 100ft are bit hard to do.:confused::confused::confused:

    Idk maybe smoke travels further than fire or something :tongue: Are smoke grenades lighter? Since frag grenades need to carry shrapnel and all. Maybe a military person can weigh in

    smoke grenade is basically a pvp only power now, we don't need further nerfs to it.

    It actually still has (very niche) applications in PvE :o

    who keeps a power in their build which only is useful in a couple places in the entire game?

    I have Ice Barrier on two of my characters, which is only useful in one situation in one fight in the entire game - yellow bubbles :cool:

    If you keep them up all the time, they are nice for tanking Frosticus too.

    If smoke grenade is to be nerfed to 60ft (I wouldn't like it at 50ft) I think force geyser would need to be nerfed to keep the PvP balance from going even more south. Smoke grenade is one of the only counters to geyser if a player only uses a 5 STR settup.

    But why are we talking about game balance? What has this got to do with vehicles and costumes? :o

    This thread is just for my wonder.
    But if we care reality, we all must take damage by Strafing Run or Orbital Cannon even the user him selves. o3o

    you mean the bug with mini drive works with sonic device too? also, I thought it was just gas pellets, but LOL!

    I think he is talking on the Bug where Sonic Device can cause damage to the actual caster?

    I could be wrong there though.
