Well, of course it's a matter of personal tastes whether you send high level soldiers who might die or low level ones who might survive I tend to avoid suicide missions and always try to give my troops a chance to survive, also i don't swap soldiers in and out of squads unless i need to replace a lost soldier or something unusual happens so those grenadiers will eventually level up on their own pace.darkerevent wrote: Dense Smoke is a good case in point. It's always great to have, and it would be nice for that extra security when executing a jailbreak. However, when I'm honestmanning in 1.3, I don't anticipate wanting to risk TSGT or higher support grenadiers on guerilla ops like that once enemies such as archons are actually present...

Be careful when removing part of a multi quote, this line wasn't from me

I think more like 20% in center and 10% at edges xDstefan3iii wrote:An interesting nerf to sting grenades would be to give them fall-off stun % chance, so enemies at the center have a 50% chance to stun, and the enemies at the edge would be something like 25%.

I changed them to 100% 1 point.JoINrbs wrote:I think more like 20% in center and 10% at edges xDstefan3iii wrote:An interesting nerf to sting grenades would be to give them fall-off stun % chance, so enemies at the center have a 50% chance to stun, and the enemies at the edge would be something like 25%.
So you can negate a move action or a shoot action, but not an entire turn unless you rapid deploy and dump 2 grenades

I second that.nightwyrm wrote:The explosive path of grenadiers is so bad until you get Combat Engineer.
Playing LW2 now for a long time. In my opinion their perk tree needs to be reworked to get this perk a little earlier. Maybe at Staff Sergant.
