Dear Bungie, grenade launchers kinda suck really bad.

Inconsistent, bad hit detection, nerf on prox grenades which made them even worse then they already are. To the people who can use them, good on ya. But man the state of launchers is sad and to do the triumph behind that? I’m probably not going to get that launcher. I have tried many different launchers as well, to no avail. Maybe tone the triumph down if you aren’t going to fix the launcher class. I am glad to see I am not the only one who thinks this way. Keep the post going maybe Bungie will see it and do something.

  • Totes true! Really SUCKS to sweat your way to the heavy ammo in crucible (or anywhere) and open fire dead on some punk with your grenade launcher, just to watch the rounds fizzle at their feet while they smoke you with a stupid hand cannon. BULLS**T! I'm totally sure that this happens with SEAL Team 6 when they fire 40 mike-mike at the Taliban...oh, NO it DOESN'T....if Fu**ing blows up...like it's SUPPOSED to! DUH!!!

  • I get hate mail now for using the fighting lion from meta users... it’s almost like they started a new class of weapon mid way through got tiered of the physics to make it work.Then just tossed it out there half assed and haphazardly. I still love my fighting lion, even if it doesn’t always love me back. It’s just something so satisfying, when you bounce it off the wall or lob it perfectly over cover and you hear...(shax voice) Double down. it’s the el Camino of weapon types. Or the mullet of guns.

      • And this place lost its shit when the Mountaintop was announced. If you want to know root cause of the problems with this game, it's not Bungie, it's not Activision (maybe with the Microtransactions at launch), it's not me, it's this damn place and the genetic mistakes inhabiting it.

        • Yep. Getting the Mountain Top Grenade Launcher Triumph completed was one of THE most toxic and hands down WORST experiences I've ever had in this game. Yep, 10 times more annoying than finishing Breakneck, Luna's, Redrix's, etc. I've never screamed at my screen so much in ANY game in my life. Seriously, no exaggeration here, it was literally hell. If I had the option to do it again, I wouldn't. You are correct, either Launchers needs buffed (PvP and PvE) and/or that Triumph needs toned down some. The multi-kill part of that quest was freaking torture.

          • Prox nade sucks. Don't use them. Play of the Game is pretty good. The key to nade launchers in their current state is to use them like a longer range shotgun. Long to medium range they pretty much suck unless your really good at them. Short to mid range they are really good. Of course you can always use Jottun…..its a nade launcher/rocket launcher/OHK anything launcher...…….

          • Yea if its not exotic, Play of the Game, or Through Fire and Flood its useless. Even those have their fair share of issues aside from Colony.

          • Use proximity det or high explosive ordinance with volatile launch. I prefer high explosive ordinance with volatile launch cause they both increase blast radius a lot. High explosive ordinance has a bigger explosion and is way easier to 1 hit kill as well as get double kills with 1 grenade shot.

              • Prospectors is alright, been killed many times by the colony. Idk why it be like when someone else uses a grenade launcher its like a freaking mini nuke going off next to me, but when i use a grenade launcher its like I'm slapping people with a warm water balloon.

                • Yeah I've used grenade launchers during year 1 and consistently use them as my current heavy weapon as of now. I earned mountain top and I enjoy it but all of them are inconsistent as hell. Bungie needs to rework how aoe attacks work in crucible because the p2p servers make it such a pain in the ass to use them. I stated this awhile ago, but they should work like pre-nerf nova warp did. Inside the radius it had a maximum amount of damage that could kill. At the outer edges it had a LOT of its power still and could kill guardians even if they just barely touched you. If a proximity grenade edge transit does 250 in the radius, that damage should be spread out over it but NEVER deal less than half. This would immensely boost usability as well as ensure what you hit, even if it lags, still gets hurt so you aren't wasting ammo.

                • Proximity did feel nerfed at first but I've been able to get the calculated trajectory medal 3 times last week so they not to bad. But using a grenade launcher with out proximity detention was bad lol.

                    Get the OG play of the game. Most consistent one even with the nerf. I managed to get a POTG with the exact rolls as the old one, plus quickdraw

                    • I love my Mountaintop and I had to go through Heck to get it, but the thing is super inconsistent. Even with spike grenades and a direct hit, it's as if the person takes no damage. The proxy nade nerf was not needed, at all. Why nerf one of the worst and least used special weapons? Especially when shotguns are so prevalent. Grenade launchers need buffs and need them bad.

                      • I really don't understand why they nerfed proximity grenades on special grenade launchers. Grenade launchers weren't even close to meta and only a very few sour individuals would complain about them. Destiny 2's sandbox team have no idea what they're doing.
