C12 Grenades for Combat XP

This is new for me. What's the effective range for these grenades? Can you toss em close up or should it be ranged? I hear this is excellent for grinding up the combat xp tree in both Marksman and the insane ammounts to get to Commando.

Grenades are fairly close combat weapons. Not TK range but more of a carbine/pistol range.
Since the XP you recieve from grenade damage is purely Combat XP you get more FS XP for combat in the long run because Combat XP transfers at a 3 to 1 ratio.
If you're looking for some let me know. I'm currently mass-producing the things in large quantities and will be restocking all my vendors soon.

Ooh goodie.. I've been trying to find these forever. Where's your vendor? Nothin' like a CH telling his thugs to clear out and whippin' in some fireworks to get people scratching their heads.
As a pikeman, I'll bet I get enhanced range using the grade school toss and hit method. If you all don't hear from me again, it's cause Seret's were the explode-on-impact type. Die-and-learn.
How much does a crate of those puppies run in Gorath credits?

Don't let Jabe fool ya, he invested in the business, not just 6 crates. Crazy mook.
The current crates I have in stock run 100K for a crate of 25. I also sell them in crates of 5 and 10 but those sell out quick. My vendors are located in Nocturnus in the Black fire weaponshop (just down on the right from the shuttleport) and a tent in Coronet (I can send you the waypoint in-game next time I'm on).
My next run may have less damage to them, still effective though, so they'll run cheaper.

What's the most damaging grenade in the game?
Also the widest area damage type if they are not the same one? Is that the C-12 type as well?

Well the most damaging grenade is probably the Thermal Detenator or Photon Grenade. Even as a Master Commando I used neither.
Thats the niche C12s have. They have NO certification so any ole mook can use them. All other grenades are pretty much Commando property.

If you think of it. I wouldn't mind a wayoint to both shops. I'm not gonna grind xp w/'em, just use them for effect. Every young Bothan boy grows up wanting to blow things up.
I've never been to Nocturnus. I vowed once that I would never return to Lok until I could fly there myself. In a day or two, I'm gonna finally make the dangerous journey in my n00b ship like a salmon upstream. If you see me an some debris floating around with my thumb out, pick me up will ya?
After hearing so much about Noc on Lok, a munitions run would be a great excuse to show my face again.
Thanks Seret.
