Okay, so I know it is considered 8eing useless and sucky, however, the Grenade is, to 8e quite frank, awesome.
First, the facts. The Grenade is not as difficult to aim as every8ody makes it out to 8e. A 8it of practice and you got it down. Not worse than many other spells. However, the 8last is pretty 8ig, so it's hard to miss with it.
Secondly, the damage is awesome. It's compara8le with the Cross just going by raw damage per hit and if the enemy is hit 8y the 8eginning of the 8last, that's 3 guaranteed hits (unlike with the Cross where you have to 8e lucky to get in 3 hits, and 2 hits can 8e quite difficult too). Why there's so little people using this su8 is 8eyond me. In fact, I'm the only person I've ever seen using it.
Then, there's a cool glitch with gold doors. Stand right next to them (like, walk into them) and use the Grenade. It will explode immediately.
And, of course, the most awesome thing: If you kill R. The Count's first form with a Grenade tossed from a 8it of a distance, his head will pop off and fly across the room. We had it 8ounce of the far right wall, fly through the entire 8oss room and actually hit the wall of the left room. Crippler had to stop and laugh, it was that hilarious.
So, every8ody, 8ask in the awesomeness that is the Grenade.
Edit: I also want to note that I just got the Retro Cloak for having R. The Count's head pop off in a 8allistic arc after grenading him.

I've gotten used to aiming it midair to bounce it between 3rd form Dracula's claws. However, against fast moving opponents, it's delayed action sure makes things difficult. I'd like the grenade more if it exploded immediately on contact with an enemy.

If you can predict where enemies move, you can hit them even if they're fast. And that's not that difficult, as well. Though, against erratically moving enemies like Death, it's difficult to aim, 8ut to 8e fair, every sluggish weapon is hard to aim on this kind of enemy.

Drop Wrecking 8all, that IS a shitty su8 and I have no clue why everyone says it's good.

B - Shuriken UB - Wrecking Ball SB - Cross DB - Bible
I might drop Shuriken once it's maxed and try rocking Grenade... I'd estimate I only have about 15000 more EXP to go on it...

Shuriken are Jon's best sub tho. You, Sir, should drop the Bible instead.

Point taken... Bible is a lot more situational than Shuriken.
Thanks.
