- With their short fuse time, Frag Grenades are a great finishing option against opponents behind cover. This is especially true with the Sovereign Sniper, as a body shot from this weapon allows a single Frag Grenade to confirm an elimination.
- Frag Grenades are a good counter to Med-Mist Smoke Grenades, as the blast radius will most likely hit opponents inside the smoke, either dealing good damage or outright eliminating them.
Counters[]
- A Bubble Shield and The Wall can block explosions from Frag Grenades. Do note that each explosion deals heavy structure damage.
