How much damage do grenades deal per second?
Can anyone tell me what the effective rate of fire is for grenade throwing, for working out how damage per second compares to guns?
Best Answer
After doing some research I have not been able to find an effective "rate of fire" for grenades, however after just throwing grenades for a bit I would say that you throw them at a rate of around 1.0-1.1 about 1 per second (this is just me doing a little working out and might not be representative of actual throw rate). However the DPS will be greatly reliant on what type of grenade you are using in conjunction with the prefix . For example a longbow with a fuse time of 0.0 will get to and explode faster than a rubberised AOE with a fuse time of 2.3, therefore having a greater burst damage where as the AOE will have a greater sustained damage. Unless you are using a Bomber O2 kit that has a free grenade chance and increased grenade damage, I would suggest using grenades in a more supportive role, such as a singularity for CC, a tesla for gaining maelstrom stacks for Athena or simply a lobbed into a group of enemies to gain a reprieve from their unrelenting onslaught. But of course it is up to you to play the game in anyway that you see fit and to enjoy it :) Hope this helped.

How much damage does a grenade do?
Without body armour or protection, a single grenade can kill an individual up to 10 metres away and can cause serious injuries up to 20 metres away. Shrapnel can reach as far as 200+ metres distance from the detonation point.Do grenades explode in 5 seconds?
Most grenades will detonate about 3-5 seconds after the trigger is released, giving you a few critical moments to react. The kill radius from a grenade's explosion is about 15 feet, and the casualty radius is about 50 feet, though pieces of shrapnel can still fly much farther than that.How many seconds does a grenade last?
At first, the grenade was fitted with a seven-second fuze, but during combat in the Battle of France in 1940, this delay proved too long, giving defenders time to escape the explosion or to throw the grenade back, so the delay was reduced to four seconds.What is the damage radius of a grenade?
What is the range of a grenade? On average a grenade can be thrown between 20 and 40 meters. The casualty radius of a grenade is between 5 and 20 meters; with a minimum of 50% of exposed personnel becoming casualties within a radius of around 15 metres from the blast.Grenades don’t kill people, PMC’s do!
