When they 1st nerfed them a few seasons ago, I didn't mind as I assumed the arc web chain lightning would have made them very OP, but now that Arc 3.0 is out and the "jolted" effect is in play, these grenades feel very underwhelming. Currently landing a 100% with the skip grenades only deals about 50 damage, they have one of the longest recharge times, and their tracking/speed was nerfed as well. Additionally the jolt effect is pretty weak in pvp, only chaining to targets within 5 meters (or so) and seems to deal about 25 damage. So in a best case scenario, your dealing roughly 75 damage with a perfect grenade hit on 1 target, while they are standing next to another target.
So I think bungie should buff them in 1 of the following ways:
1. Reduced recharge time by 30 seconds
2. Revert the damage nerf
3. Reduce recharge time by 15 seconds, and buff tracking/travel speed by 50%.

I run shinobus when I play survival, easy games, throw it at a wall so the Ricochet bounces toward the enemy, take a couple pot shots and wait for the nades to work their magic, they're good how they are -
5 RepliesNo. They require 0 skill to use for basically free damage.

1 ReplySkips are a joke right now, even with Shinobu's. It's pretty sad. Arcstrider is better off running neutral exotics than any of it's class specific ones

The damage and tracking on Skips need to be better, but not as potent as they were pre-nerf.

Absolutely not lmao not needed whatsoever

2 RepliesHave you ever faced multiple hunters with shinobus? Its a meme but holy eff was it the most cancer ive ever played against.

1 ReplyReverting the buffs and equipping the jolt fragment would make shinobu skips WAY too strong. Especially this season with the artifact grenade mod.

Hahahahahahaha

As annoying as it is that they nerfed the damage i think its fine but the tracking needs to be better
-
-
We already have titans with their broken storm grenades we don’t need another
-
Maybe changing the time the nades regen but no to the damage buff. Not every nade needs to be strong with mass damage.

The damage nerf is tolerable imo but the tracking should be better
