spike grenades vs mini frags vs augmented drum for heavy GLs?

[wicked heron]

whats the best perk for heavy GLs now on the assumption that the perks would be envious/cascade + bns/explosive light?

also, does lowering blast radius increase impact damage in general or does that only apply when i have spike grenades?

curious what the best perk would be now for heavy GLs like edge transit since spike got a nerf way back, and the envious/cascade swap glitch is gone

is the small bump in impact damage of spike grenades (about 4% right?) better than having an an increased mag size for cascade dumping/envious?

spike is still best choice. it's onyl different for mountaintop and even there it's not a bad choice

but youre running Backup mag anyways so augmented drum isn't gonna be as worth it

[wicked heron]

oh hey man

i went back and read some other posts on edge transit and our convo months ago

but i wanted to confirm one thing: does lowering blast radius increase impact damage even without spike nades

[sand raptor]

afaik yes

[wicked heron]

and theres no other drawback of lowering blast radius? (other than the blast radius getting smaller)

[sand raptor]

not really yeah
