are scatter grenades meant to suck?

ive been using nothing manacles recently and even with this exotic scatter grenades appear to do no damage and dont track correctly. its funny because i remember scatter grenades being able to kill the user no problem if you threw them down at your feet but cant kill a half dead guardian WITH the tracking from nothing manacles

  • They are the best void nade for instant damage though. And they can kill in 1 grenade easily in pvp.

    • Yes they suck. Not only are they garbage at tracking, the explosions do not last that long. I will never use them outside of fashion because of the spikey studs and Void energy on them. I just use Vortex and call it a day.

    • They seemed to have gotten nerfed in void 3.0. I used to love them for both pvp and pve, but once 3.0 dropped they sucked. They seem to deal much less damage and the projectile seem much slower.

    • So Mannacles give you charged Scatter grenades as the default. Unfortunately, charged Scatters are a nerfed version of standard Scatters, meaning the Mannacles are pretty worthless, since having double charges for Devour is gone.

    • Scatter grenades are great, nothing manacles are great, just not both of them combined lmao. Don’t know if they ever fixed the bug, but the actual little scatter orbs hit each other when they start to track and they don’t damage the enemy lol. either way they just don’t work well together

Nothing manacles are not. Charged scatter grenades and nothing manacles grenades slow the grenade down so that they can’t track. Makes the grenade less consistent. You’re better off just using the grenades at base.
