In comparison to say call of duty or battlefield. Have you played BF2 on an infantry only map, there are more grenades than raindrops in a Florida rainy season, each one has the explosion radius of texas and instakills and can be thrown over 5 city blocks and its very similar in Call of duty too.

In comparison to mainstream games Planetsides grenades are harder to use, their physics sucks (they act like bouncy balls) it takes about 2-3 hits to kill if thrown directly at the feet and there is about 1.5 seconds between grenades. Relative to the FPS market I believe I am right in what I said...

They shouldn't.

Granted, they shouldn't be instakill, and a very small splash. AT rocket vs infantry, the at guy should lose 9 times out of ten in a direct fight. But if it took 2 hits to kill, and had a 2s reload(plus whatever time you spent reloading it) it would be balanced as a relatively poor AI weapon. There is also no reason the lancer couldn't have been effective at killing people as well.

I just want them to do more than tickle the enemy. Will a full clip of lancer/striker even kill a rexo?

Deci's already two shot rexo. I think that's good enough damage.
