I have a lot of different GLs in my vault but don't know which one to use and sometimes my gls don't one shot people even though I shoot them directly, I heard that blast radius can affect this but idk how much I should have. Can someone help me?

proximity grenades used to guaratee a 1shot on most gls but dont anymore. so go with gls that have higher damage per bullet (adaptive frame)

#

having perks like explosive light, impulse amplifier, chain reaction or other can also imprrove performance by alot. especially impulse amp

#

i have 2 gls with amp: an adept cataphrac with 74 blast radius and a typhon with 85 blast radius, which one should i use?

lone spade
#

whats the perk on that cataphract

#

the 2nd

hearty mountain
#

amp + chain

lone spade
#

is it not reliable enough?

hearty mountain
#

amp + chill clip

lone spade
#

edge transit also rolls decent pvp perks with impulse and fullcourt or frenzy

hearty mountain
#

oh ok cuz it sometimes doesnt one shot and dealt only like half of their hp

lone spade
#

what are its magazine perks?

#

your cataphract

hearty mountain
#

the cataphac has spike and typhon have high exp ordinance

#

the cataphrac used to have prox but i swap it to spike

lone spade
#

Yeah spike nades, high explosive ordnance or high velocity are best rn

hearty mountain
#

so which one should i use?

lone spade
#

im pretty sure you can remote detonate the spike nades midair aswell, so try doing that additionally if you dont already

lone spade
#

high explo ordnance, impulse and?

hearty mountain
#

amp + chill

lone spade
#

yeah i would use cataphract

#

spike nades, impulse amp, chain react

hearty mountain
#

ok then cus i heard a lot of people said you should have atleast 75 blast radius to consistently oneshot

lone spade
#

im not sure abt the numbers, they could be made up. I have a memory Interdict with proximity, impulse and chain reaction with 1600 pvp kills

#

and it only has 40 blast radius

okie then thanks a lot for the info ❤️
