Guild Wars 2

Has anyone else noticed that grenades often disappear when you throw them/clip through the ground and/or walls? I’ve thrown grenades directly at people and they just do nothing… which happens very often only since this patch. Before the patch I never had this problem.
I’ve also noticed that even when they don’t clip through the ground, only 1 or 2 of the grenades actually hit anything.

I posted it as an issue a long time ago. Not all grenades register a hit and often it looks like the grenades don’t have any collision detection with the object. You need to target the ground right in front of it and let the aoe register the dmg. It’s also similar to the flame thrower not registering any damage. You need to cycle to another weapon and back to the FT for the damage to register again. A bit annoying, but it’s definitely been in the game for quite some time.

Yep, especially noticeable on gates.

I honestly haven’t been playing my engineer since that last “bug-fix” patch. I hate grenades without the “grenadier” trait. I waited way longer than I should have had to for for A-net to implement that QOL change, only for them to snatch it away., and I don’t like my engi without his grenades. I’ll come back when the fix “grenadier.” Until then, my Elementalist is keeping me entertained.

So you were complaining it was a DPS nerf and now you’re complaining because you lack the QoL benefit? Engi’s fine if you know what you’re doing. Grenadier can be nice but really only when you’re ranging… which you shouldn’t be doing in dungeons (which you’ve said is your focus).

LOLS, you wait so long for Grenade to be OP, but it was the most OP kit before the patch.
Guess some people can’t play without exploit.

It happened already before the patch. It is easy to repeat this bug. Just go to WvWvW and try to damage the gates with grenades. If you throw the nades at the gate, they often do no damage, but if you throw the grenades on the ground just in front of the gate, they do damage correctly.

Aye they spread if you throw at an object, never saw it as a bug but more as a skill check /shrug.
