How to use Maelstrom spam without grief or exposing yourself to nme fire

[Hamorad]

Ok, so say you're in a tower, bunch of nmes rushing doors and the like. What do you do? Bust out a mael and try this: Basically, the staircase is more or less one big column. With this you can realize that the floor right above you is 2 stories up... so if you're in the spawns, you can hit the people that are rushing doors and trying to go up and down by merely pointing the mael at the ceiling and firing off a nade.

Though this works ok in towers, in works GREAT in bases (except AMP station duh). Say, dropship center. You stand in that one area around the bottom of the stairs and shoot up at all the enemy streaming in from the front door. Do this right and you can make lots of kills, because the spam is difficult to escape, especially with many allies around who won't move, plus you live longer. You can rack up amazing k/ds like this.
