Buff Request: Grenade Launcher

Still, 16 more EC so it can shoot over walls? Buff the stats.

It's like the normal frag frenade you throw out. The stats are okay.

It does low damage because like the ac cannon it has explosive damage that sometimes deals an extra 5 damage ontop of the 6 so you could get an 11 damage hit. It is also low damage because think of how annoying it would be in bases having someone shooting grenades over the wall, taking half to a quarter of your health away. If you had 4 people using it in bh as the attacking team it would literally be undefendable because there would be nowhere for the defending gang to hide and not lose their health, making it easy for the attackers to come in and kill them

if u get a direct hit u get 11 dmg 100%?
and also, does the GAS LAUNCHER do 14 dmg even without a direct hit? coz if it does, the grenade launcher DOES need a buff.

No the explosion damage is random and even if gas launcher does (which it doesn't) how does that mean grenade launcher needs to be buffed when it's 60 ec less?

It would be kind of easier if i summarize this

Grenade Launcher Does low damage because when the projectile lands it deals explosive damage too

Grenade Launcher Does NOT need a buff since it would more overpowered than the Gas Launcher's Burn gas mode

The comparison between Artillery Cannon and Grenade Launcher is that Ac has higher damage (on impact) because it fires STRAIGHT like the XM25. While on the other hand, the Grenade launcher has lower damage since it can fire over walls like a normal grenade is thrown

if i missed details im sorry

Plus, neither of these weapons DOESNT NEED A BUFF

Buffing it to have no clip at all (bottomless clip) would be much better than buffing the damage. If the damage was buffed by even 1 then they would have to add more freeze to it and slow the firerate. I dont think any gun has a bottomless clip.

The nitro blaster has no reload but it has to recharge to do maximum damage.

It reload automaticly, you will saw a bar at the left side down corner, a bar with blue and red color, it shows the reload timing, when the bar is full, your gun will recharge 1 / 2 clips.
And the damage for Nitro is random

60 ec less and it shoots with similar stats to the regular frag grenade...okay don't buff it; it's one of the worst items in the event house with those stats...

It's a support gun, if you are using it solely to get kills then you are using it wrong. A ideal situation to bring out the grenade launcher would be in gz when your team is attacking, just shoot grenades over the wall doing some damage to the other team in that small box where the doors to the flag are, they can't do much back to you and your base members can run down and kill them easily since they are on lower health.
If this gun is buffed anymore then it becomes something similar to the m107 where everyone buys it and you can't do much against it in bases.
Not every ec gun has to be good anyway, you can make the argument that it takes time to get ec but really they're free guns, and with the facebook ec uploads, ec value is nothing like it was when events were first released. If the gun doesn't appeal to you then don't buy it if it does then good for you.

dude 43 ec is harder to gain than 110k gralats...don't say free ec coz they barely do that anymore. all i wanted was for this gun to actually be useful in bases; its 6 dmg and high freeze with low fire rate and bad reload time make it the crappiest item in the whole event house.
