Bio are the only ones I use anymore.
Bio under a Forge when you can get it in the right spot.
Bio under a warrior, or in a crowd of skitts.

Only thing better is a couple sludge hitting a Monarch or Hulker, or a batch of Infected.

Advantage the bio has/had is it doesn't take up the 2nd weapon slot.

Same thing I've always thought. Imaginary +1 to you, kind sir or madam! :)

Well some of us use flash and bio. I like flash in particular. It is my get away from horde free card.

The new system is clunky and takes away valuable time shooting things to pick up nades. And if you run out you're out of luck, no stunning and running for me anymore. :-(

Come on ppl, Trion's devs do what they can, you know it's difficult to code and change stuff in a video-game, and you know that 3/4 of ppl in Trion were fired, so it's harder for those who remain to make a good code, they do what they can...

Players were asking for a real firing turret on raptor and for a real multiplayer arena, but we all know that Trion's devs didn't figure out how to code that stuff, it was to hard for them, so they didn't do it.

Now they know how to change grenades mechanics and they know how to code it, and you ppl are whining, you do not want to let them express themselves, that's a shame.

No we just don't want a NEW system that is clunky, and worse than the one currently in place.

I get where you are coming from i feel for the devs too but why are they putting precious development time into changing a feature that the large majority of the player base seem to like as it is, they could be using that time to refine the next update or add more features.
I'm not sure how or why but they seem selectively oblivious to the community which is a major problem in a continuously developing game such as a MMO.

We don't get a vote. They will do as they please with the game.
I've said it before.
I don't like it either, but there it is.

What happens to our bug grenades because its not like enemies are going to drop those?

The bug grenade is by far my fave I imagine the bugs as my avatars pets, although I have recently got bored of it and have a couple of good purp grenades that i have kept but hardly used,
shame that they are going to be wasted away so I will probably keep them but not use them until the devs return to the original grenade system

Yea, why not concentrate more on new content rather than using the "If it ain't broke, fix it until it is good and broke" mentality.
I had no problems with the way the 'nades were. I'll cast a vote anyway:

X - eat a cookie and leave the nades alone.
_ - change the nades and make people mad.
