Re: Please buff the Thermite Grenades

@DrWizardo
If anything, it just needs to be a little wider, not more damage.
Then it'll have a better hit rate.
And will break the leader boards in amount of damage dealt by specific grenades because it gets to hit more often than the other two, and for more than the other two.
If anything they are gonna nerf it, not buff it. That'll be sad, but that's how effective it is vs the other two.
Speaking of, I find arc stars more effective than frags because:
Direct hit, sticky nade.
Frags and arcs do 5-15 on average, half the time missing completely.
Arc will stick on direct hit, guaranteeing 75 on detonation.
Therms deal 25 on initial hit (5 ticks of 5, or something), and stack flame on targets sitting in it, forcing them to escape if they don't want to burn to death. Average damage 35.

Saw this and thought I'd add it.

@MrGreenWithAGun And I state that thermites are bad at what they do.
The intimidation factor of flames on the ground is meh, the effect meh, the time meh, the use meh... Also when you offer usage there is comparison in value. Is this item useful? Is it likely to be useful?

To me the thermite is underwhelming and needs to be looked at.

@DrWizardo

I disagree. If your shields are cracked and you can’t afford to take damage thermite is a great deterrent to movement.

But I can see you want to buff its deterrence. I am iffy on that but I can see why a small buff wouldn’t hurt.

@MrGreenWithAGun
Also, if someone decides to tank a thermite, they'll take over 200 damage. Frags are 100 tops.
I've tanked one before and although I popped a battery on my purple shields, I still died to the thermite grenade. They might've shot me after I finished the battery, I forget. No one really uses them anymore, so I don't get scenarios where I need to tank thermite damage.
