Will the mini grenades be the new meta?
Considering the way the APS sentinel will be nerfed to have a cooldown period, I can see the mini grenades becoming the new meta because you can have 3 of them to bait the APS into its cooldown then ...

This is why I believe that they did not think this change through.
A cooldown is important for the Tank versions of the APS because the Tank APS stops shells too, it is also part of the tank and cannot be individually destroyed.
Meanwhile the infantry APS can be erased by a couple of bullets, an explosive shell or EMP.
So now we have to wait who knows how many months for their "Telemetry(TM)" to catch up to the fact that the infantry APS was the only thing giving some protection for 8 to 64 players throwing all their frag grenades and missiles at your general location while siting next to their ammo boxes
@UP_Hawxxeye Yep I agree, it would have been better if they'd differentiated between vehicle and infantry APS. There are loads of explosives flying at you as infantry and the sentinel was such a helpful gadget to give you a bit of a breather.
I'm worried that defending on Breakthrough and Rush, especially Rush XL, is going to be frustrating as you'll be getting fragged left and right.
