Grenade launchers in this game get kind of a bad rep. Aside from Play of the Game, you won’t really see any other GL’s being used in the crucible. After using the two launchers in the title above, I truly believe their scarce usage is a case of mistaken identity. They need to be used in a specific way, and if used in this way, you can do some good damage to your opponents. These two GL’s come with amazing base stats and amazing perks. The most interesting one to note is “Concussion Grenades.” Hitting an opponent with this grenade will stun them. **[b]The blast radius on these GL’s is really high. If you explode the grenade close enough to your opponents body, it will do a total of 150 damage. Not enough to kill, but enough to stun them, pull out your primary, and finish them off. The added value of these GL’s is that they can bounce off of walls and kill opponents behind cover. [/b]** Orewing’s Maul has the perk auto-loading holster. At first glance it may seem like a useless perk, but it synergies exceptionally well with the gun’s intended play style. Shoot the grenade, stun your opponent, swap to your primary, and finish them off. By the time you get the kill, your grenade launcher will have its ammo reloaded so you can move onto the next kill. I like to use New City as my primary, since it has the QuickDraw perk and makes it easy to finish off opponents. Try to keep your distance when using these GL’s. They require you to hold the trigger and release to detonate. If you get too close to your opponent, you will find it very hard to use since the detonation won’t trigger early enough. Pulling the trigger on the launcher and timing the explosion on your opponent is so extremely satisfying. It is a feeling of satisfaction no other power weapon can provide. I actually find myself camping the power ammo spawn just so I can grab it over my teammates. Patch 1.1.4 will be buffing the blast radius of grenade launchers. These might actually become extremely powerful in the crucible, and I feel they will be an excellent choice for rumble. I hope you found this guide insightful. These GL’s may not be the most powerful weapons in the game but they do offer something unique to work with. They offer a play style that your opponent will not know how to counter (since they never really face it.)
