Hi, once you activate the grenade kit, you will drop a grenade at your feet (with an internal cooldown).

Can you do something with this grenade or not?

not 100% sure exactly what you’re asking but I think I get the crux of it.

With the trait Streamlined Kits in the Tools trait-line, equiping the grenade kit drops a proximity mine at your feet. This trait has a 20 sec internal CD.

In terms of “doing something” with it… like any mine, bait melee into it, knock back foes into it or just hope they brain-fart their way onto it. It’s not the best kit swap ability.

Hope this clarifies it for you.

The mine you drop after using the grenade kit deals moderate damage, applies vuln, is a blast finisher and only triggers when something moves over it (not when you spawn it under their feet). It’s a rather insignificant “passive” skill with wich you can’t do much since it’s too unreliable when and if it explodes.

Other streamlined kits procs are more useful, like the magnet bomb from bomb kit or the slick shoes from the elixier gun.

Okay thanks for the info.

yeah I was laying it down under those target dummy robots and it didnt explode, so I was like huh 0_0 what is it supposed to do :P,
but your enemy has to walk over it as you say, so that explains it.
