Defender Sticky Nades PVP Issues/Grievances

Dear Bungie, When I throw my sticky nade into a group of enemies and it sticks to no one but the ground something went wrong. Time and time again I throw my nade into a control point filled with 2-4 enemy players and it kills no one and it lands on the ground right by them. Then sadly I get the 1 point of damage pop up on my screen because it's not treated like a regular nade at that point. When I throw it right at someone running at me and it goes right by them something went wrong. Time and time again I will have someone rushing me with a shotty or going for a melee and I throw my nade and it goes within inches of their body and doesnt even stick.. This would not be that big of an issue if the nade responded like a regular nade when it goes off but this is the weakest nade in the game, I feel like, if you dont land the stick. There is little to what seems like no AOE at all. Only by chance does the secondary explosion kill someone who is already one-shot that just happens to be walking right over the top of it. It seems the only way to get it to stick, is to throw it straight at a person, which has to be a perfect throw. And I know for people who don't play as Titan or use Defender this seems like a non-issue but when I'm used to the nade behaving a certain way in PVE and it responds entirely different in PVP something went wrong. In PVE the sticky nade will do some wild, Wanted:Weapons of Fate curving the bullet stuff, where it straight up pulls 90 degree turns or changes direction on a dime and sticks no problem. Or the throw will be short and it will glide across the ground and shoot up at an enemy like a hang glider dipping for more height. Which is awesome as all get out and I would love to see it act the same way in PVP. But when in PVP its the weakest one to use, I feel like, and is never a one hit kill like most of the other nades. (Im looking at you trip mine and lightning nades) Just some thoughts. Do you Defenders feel the same? Am I being too critical? Post Script Does Bungie really read these you think? We all know how the whole "story", "ok we will work on a story for the DLC" thing turned out. LAUGH OUT LOUD dont even get me started.

    Lightning nades are nowhere near 1 hit kills, it's 168 damage IIRC, one of the weaker nades actually. Trimines are 1 hit ko if you stick someone, but they have NO magnetism unlike the nades your complaining about. They can also kill at 1 hit from the ground or a wall, but you have to be pretty close for that. Anyways I've been stuck with some crazy BS sticks in PVP by titans, it def does have magnetism. It may not be as strong as in PVE, but even if it isn't, the way you describe it sounds broken, can't blame them for not carrying over a barely have to aim 1hit kill
