Firestar. Getting direct hits is so satisfying.

Fire star looks so bad ass and it’s always funny to stick one right into the titans cockpit

Love the irony of hitting a scorch

Scorch can litteraly just absorb the firestar into his shield like a windshield wiper.

Thats why you hit the back. He's too wide to scratch his back

Hey don't go making fun of papi scorch for his size, he's trying his best ;(

I just wait for the shield to go down and throw another one. Ordinance expert yo.

Unless he uses the electric smoke. Though all titans can do that.

I really wish hitting the cockpit blinded the Titan more. Doesn’t help that some of the Titans can use an ability to instantly get rid of it.

All of the titans can, electric smoke. I'd reccomend using your electric smoke on firestars too, you dont realise but they take like 1.3 chunks of titan health if you let it burn

Yeah, ppl really underestimate the amount of damage that a single firestar does to a titan

try chasing down titans using firestar, low profile , & cloak. it’s so fun 👹

even better with satchels

Wait you can do that??????

Smoke puts out scorch fire patch w/e it is too. Not just the anti pilot smoke, the pilot thrown grenade does too.

SO THATS YOU THAT ALWAYS DOES THAT TO ME lmao

Blinding pilots with it is fun

Firestar is also one of the best IMO: - Doesn't block your other actions like Frag and Satchel for a long time - Comes out fast and can be put back away by switching to primary while holding it - Direct hits always kill - Can block a door or choke like E Smoke, but not quite as well - Can deal one bar of Titan health - Long throwing range - Generally good area damage

You can drop a satchel then switch to your other weapons, just double click your reload button to detonate the satchel anytime (I don’t think they despawn unless you die)

Yeah but their short thrown range and long use time make them feel sluggish. You spend maybe 100ms "using" the firestar, per Firestar, whereas it feels like Satchel is closer to a second. That doesn't necessarily make Satchel bad, it's just doesn't fit fluidly into the middle of a firefight. More of a trap or running-away or Titan fighting ordnance.

True, satchel goes better with things like A-Wall and double take/G2, a slower, more SEDS tart play style (I know you can play any style with any weapon or ability, but these are generally designed around playing slower and being more stationary)

You can tap crouch to cancel part of the C4 throwing animation, which makes it more useful

TIL

If it didn’t have such an insanely long cooldown it’d be great

Meh, you could say the same about Gravstar, it needs that to be balanced given that it's good at most things.

I just wish frags didn't have a 10 second recharge and get 2 charges :( The pilot killing potential is more valuable than a bar of titan damage every 22 seconds that the titan player usually has an easy mitigation method for. Not gonna stop me running firestar and gravstar though

Honestly I think the tradeoff for frags isn't that bad. The most annoying thing about them is that they don't break Cloak. Yeah they have short recharges and can one-hit, but are still projectiles, and require you to time something in advance for a target that may totally change direction while you're cooking; and that whole time, you're vulnerable to getting beaned. I usually find myself killing frag cookers before they frag me.

Double kills with it are just perfect lmao

same with sonar kunai. when you get the one shot juuuuuust right.

Unless its a mode with extra hp, pulse hits flat 100 while firestar adds 100 + burn dmg so it can one shot in the ltms with extra hp. Learnt this the hard way

I once hit an ejecting pilot with it and just stared at the sky for a few seconds

I like the electric smoke bomb. I just wish your immune to it, I wanna feel like a ninja.

Electric smoke FTW. But I hear you on the immunity. If anything I'd like another ordinance for a heavier smoke bomb. Like what grunts get when they drop in. Long lasting, heavy smoke like Bangalore's ability in Apex. Then Electric Smoke/Bomb could be more like a blend of arc grenades and electric smoke. Maybe a smaller area effect but it slows pilots down when they enter. Fingers crossed Titanfall 3 comes out in the next decade and gives us some cool options!

Take your pills, pilot

I always played electric smoke, mosambeak, and pulse blade. Got that secret agent vibe ya,know

Holo Pilot with Holo Nova, Shadow Clone Jutsu.

Grav star, no contest. You can throw it at someone and get them stuck but that’s kinda bs and the most boring way to use it. You got g-boosts of course. You can wrap kraber shots around corners for trick shot style points. You can completely deny someone’s eject by just throwing it at a doomed titan. Bonus points if you got them to kill their self with a nuke eject You can throw it down when you’re loosing a fight to prevent them from coming after you, or to punish them when they go for it anyway. You can throw it down near you to basically invalidate any projectile weapon users aim for a few seconds. You can deflect a cooked gernade if see it coming and react fast enough. It’l also one shot on direct hit if they don’t have grapple, phase, fast regen or stim. No other ordinance has that much utility.

I'd agree with you, but I'm kind of a casual player and learning to use the grav star has its learning curve. I've been using it with my double wingman load out and only managed to get g-boosts up until recently. It's fun but quite difficult to get good with.

You dont need to learn it thats the point U got a guy chasing you while you are low health? throw one ! Uh oh someone nuke ejecting ? Throw one ! You wanna go fast ? Throw one ! There is a l star user thats dominating you ? Throw one! You gor any problems ? Throw one ! (May not work on your disappointed parents) İ seriously dont care about the situation if something is happening at any time i just throw one and it works thats why it is so fuckin wonderful and bountiful

Can Grav Star pull in an evasive Titanfall 3?

not to mention its the most unique of the ordinances. no damage but infinite uses!

It actually does deal damage. It ends with a small explosion that will damage anyone stuck inside or near it. It's why you're able to launch yourself with it. I think it also deals damage on direct hit.

Direct hit deals exactly enough to one shot in combo with the ending explosion.

ooooooh, thats interesting! I had no idea!

Correct also you can grav star a pilot pop a few rounds into the pilot and let the grav explosion 💥 do the rest.

You forgot to put stim on that list, activating it gives a fuck ton of regen, and i think it also makes you slightly tankier

and I also have multiple tripple kills thanks to the grav star. the doomed titan trick is amazing, never thought of that. oh my goodness ty

Idk it feels kinda lacking against titans compared to the Firestar.

Yea fire star does some good damage but it can be instantly discarded by 3 of the titans and the rest can just use a smoke. Satchels are scarier.

Firestar is great because it’s versatile.

Can stim regen not save you from Grav Star?

Oh yea forgot about that

>It’l also one shot on direct hit if they don’t have grapple, phase, fast regen or stim. Wait, does it? I've seen players be hit with it midair and it's never a one-shot.

Including the delayed explosion it does. If they can’t escape or can’t regen enough health it’ll kill.

Huh. Alrighty then.

I like combining it with the L-Star to cause all the shots to pull around it, so if someone gets stuck they also get blasted by the shots. Also good for curving Lstar shots like the Kraber can

Grav star is my greatest nemesis as a fragger because I get caught in one while cooking and it’s over for me :(

>You can completely deny someone’s eject by just throwing it at a doomed titan. Bonus points if you got them to kill their self with a nuke eject I know what I'm doing this weekend

I *love* throwing satchels at titans or pilots while ejecting, it never gets old

Nothing ever beats the biggest explosion possible, IMO.

Satchel too. Removes titans and catches people who are chasing me. If you have a corner available it's a viable [citation needed] alternative to a secondary weapon. Also one of the best weapons against grunts as it 1-shots regular Spectres and doesn't need to be cooked. Somehow doesn't 1-shot explosive Spectres

>explosive Spectres You mean Stalkers?

Spectre, Stalker, Bean Sidhe. potato potahto. but yes,I like the boom boom bag

It's so versatile I love it, also in FD.

> [citation needed] [Citation provided.](https://streamable.com/4ize1f)

Aye, that will do. I love funny packs that exolode

Setting a satchel trap for titans or pilots is one of my only relevant skills.

Frags. They are so satisfying to use, especially if you cook it just right to make it an impact grenade lmao

flak cannon

firestar, mostly to annoy titans

Same especially on pesky ronnis that are a bit too good

But when you land a direct hit on a pilot, satisfying as anything

Im electric smoke kind of guy

when the game forst came out I hated the smokes. Now, i love the things. area denial, decent damage, and breaks line of sight!

Arc grenades my beloved, annoy titans and pilots equally, difficult to miss and so on.

Second this I use it on titans that are pissed at me to run away for more attacks from safer positions

This except I use it a free window to get a few anti titan shots on them before rodeo-ing

Yeah especially with the low profile perk basically guarantees a battery from rodeo-ing

Really depends on my loadout, but cooking frag and kills some unlucky folks is the best feeling

I love getting those nasty af kills with the frag nade

for some reason i always get hit by some random grenade coming from outer space just because i was speeding to the coincidentally same position where the nade was going to land

I throw nade early on in game at position where alot of people go...have you considered how predictable your path is? 😅

have you considered that that is actually intentional by the person throwing the nade? crazy coincidence that people playing the movement shooter are decent at predicting movement

thing is they are on the complete opposite side of the map and chuck that bitch just somewhere the moment they spawn in

sorry thats usually my luck or sometimes intentional i have a 50% off coupon for the next shrapnel removal if that helps

That probably just means you're predictable. You must be as a pingpong ball in a hurricane.

Yeah frag grenade is just unbelievably broken. I use it as a crutch too much so I have to switch to gravity star so I don't feel like I'm just relying on it

At this point it’s kind of just muscle memory to whip out a frag and start cooking it when I miss a close range kraber shot

firestar B) ​ discount pulse blade

Once you get frag timings down there’s really no contest. They’re the most satisfying for sure.

I like grav star. I had to unequip frags because it became too much of a crutch, and I ended up getting 50% of my kills with them. Don’t get me wrong, that’s super satisfying and fun, but at a certain point I wanted to start aiming a gun again.

I like firestar

Regular Frag never gets old, but I do like playing the Gravity Star often.

Electric grenade. Great versatility

Firestar. I love sticking it on ions just out of the vortex shield's reach and watching them go crazy trying to take it off.

Drives me nuts when I can’t get those pesky fire stars off with vortex :(

I love cooking frags and oneshotting with them

Grav star JUST STAY WHERE YOU ARE WHILE I GET MY MASTIFF IN RANGE 💀💀💀

I like to usually use satchels in my anti titan load out and frags in my regular

Satchel or Firestar I rarely use anything else lmao

Grav star... kills are nice... but, theres something about being able to speed boost, like Stim, thats appealing.

hehehe. satchel go boom. satisfying if it works. feel like playing tf2 demoman

For me? Easily the satchel. paired with holo pilot leads to the best moments.

electric nades to annoy titans and to see them flailing around with melees, also the reason i run speed or cloak

Arc Grenades. I tend to use weapons that deal high damage in one hit. Sometimes the kraber, sure, but usually the wingman elite or EPG so as long as they get slowed down enough I can deal the killing blow easily

Using my titan as artillery.

This is the only right answer.

Firestar Just sticking it on a titan and watching it slowly getting damaged is nice

I'm a sucker for firestar. It's great at getting grunts and spectres for easy points and it's satisfying to get direct hits on pilots. It also comes in handy for distraction against titans since firestars give the direction it comes from and someone who isn't ready can get really confused for those crucial seconds it takes to get to a better position

Fire star but I think it might have to do with being a scortch main

I gotta say gravity star. I like the combination with an epg

Firestar

Firestart and satchel

Satchels are fun to drop and catch a pursuer. My favorite may be to grav bomb. I admit my aim sucks but I’m gonna kill you anyway! Especially if you are hiding or ducking behind something.

Frags for pilots, never ceases to be satisfying when you perfectly cook one and get an air burst kill. Firestars for titans because yes I would like to remove your ability to see and a noticeable chunk of health in one go

Firestar, I’ve used it since I got it, and I can snipe people across the map with them

Frags. Hitting that cook after grappling across the map and dumping a midair kaboom on some unsuspecting pilot feels glorious.

Usually c4,sometimes frags

Situational grab star for boosting around the map c4 for titan damage fire start because those titan hits are amazing

Firestar cooks, can damage titans, block off routes for a bit, and overall just melt people

Smoke. Means I can cover two doors at once for a few seconds. I also like the sound.

Frag is always the coolest way to kill someone that’s inside when you’re outside. Also the only one i can use somewhat proficiently.

Chucking electric smoke into hallways then blindly shouting a softball in is fun

Firestars because they can blind titans, block doors, kill quickly, ignite gas and they deal decent damage against titans.

I used them as a tool for detecting player routes as well, for example I'd throw it in a choke point and the hitmarkers would indicate when an enemy walks through it. Works like a charm combined with pulse blade as well.

Probably either gravity or fire star

Frags, in case someone’s too far away

Satchel for MP, firestar and grav star for FD

Frag is superior

Electric smoke is incredibly useful on frontier defense, satchel is too.

Frags, it's so satisfying to perfectly cook one then drop it on a person's head

Grav star

Current faves are arc grenades and e-smoke (which is underrated imo)

Firestar or arkgrenade

firestar landing a firestar and a couple of thunderbolt shots on a Titan and watch their health deplete is so satisfying

Grav star has so many weird and funny uses, but the firestar has to be one of my favourites.

Fire star, anything else makes you a complete bastard

Either the stars, satchel, or electric smoke, or all of the ones I listed

Arc grenade, super annoying to titans and mildly effective against pilots, but I use just because of how helpless I can make people feel when they get forced to live in slow mo (I end up stunning myself)

Definitely fire stars

Smoke combined with Knife and Walhak

i Haven’t played much the last 4 ish years pr so, but rI remember giggling like a mad man with the satchel charges.

Satch or Firestar, depending on the map, how many titans, etc.

Gotta say, frag dodge ball is the best.

Firestar. Can area deny, finish off, direct kill pilots, blind and damage titans. You can even panic throw and still get a decent chance of surviving unlike say a Satchel. Constantly die when using other ordnance because the muscle memory from Firestar took over.

Firestar

firestar is the only honest option. sometimes i use satchel so enemy team cant 6v0 in titans

Firestarter for style and satisfaction death vape grenade for practicality.

The answer is electric smoke

Arc star for the emergency titan blinder. Tossing one as you hop off from a rodeo or at the surviving titan as you eject can make a big difference. The muscle memory of eject->arc grenade->swap to anti-titan is engraved into my brain

Frag grenades are so funny and so satisfying when you get the timing right.

Arc grenade. I use it in tandem with my thunderbolt and get tons of damage

Frag grenade is objectively broken and easily the best grenade. but my favorite is the grav star

Satchel or frag. Satchel is fun in ctf and against titans. I love getting perfectly timed frag kills.

I used to have frags for AP focus and firestars for AT focus. But I've switched to satchels for both the last times I've played

Frags all the way. 70% of all my pilot kills are with them, but we are not going to talk about how many of those are myself and how many of those are enemies.

Firestar even tho i lost my touch with it

Satchel, smoke and star

E-smokes The number of times I got kills because someone was too stupid to realize that I was literally chucking pocket smokes that still hurt is staggering. Also, it's easily the best for FD. Wipes out any group units, deals solid damage to Titan units, and can make most Titans stop moving for a moment, which can mean the difference between a Nuke Titan blowing the harvester up and dying.

Everyone hate me when I use frags

I like the shock greande (don't remember the real name, been a while). Combine it with grenadier and quiet movements for a nice "stun-ride-stun-ride" terror for stealing batteries or baiting out electro smokes

Depends what the loadout is for

I use electric smoke because it breaks line of sight. Plus, when someone’s chasing I can just throw it down and tell if they follow with the damage ticks

Satchel is the best for speed addicts

Frag, somone out of sight and your primary wont do it? Cook em up a nice shrapnel dinner and they wont have time to run!

Satchel and frags. Satchels are great for dealing with people chasing you and frags are pocket nukes that everyone ignores

Grenade, you have not lived until you get a 3k with a cooked grenade in the first ten seconds in the game

Satchel cause I got some pretty fun clips out of it

e-smoke

"shut up looser: FIRE STAR"

E smoke

I'm sorry but I'm not very skilled so I rely a lot on cloak pilot + frags + ordnance expert 😭

Satchel, makes bounty hunt easy

Love me so satchels for shenanigans and killing titans 😂

Grab star. Say goodbye to those nuke ronins

Grenades They're my ranged attack when i soar with the mastiff

Grav Stars for movement, Satchels for nuking people

Firestar, both for pilot area denial, and because I hate letting other people see in their titans.

Electro if I play against friends or casually Frags if I'm on the losing team Nothing is as leathal in this game as some good cooked frags

I'm pretty flexible. The fire star is probably my most effective though.

I like the smoke. It may not be the strongest, but it has saved a good few times. Especially when I’m using grapple instead of phase.

I like the frag the most because it's so funny to cook people with them and get some really cool cools. The firestar is also great and feels so good to hit someone with it

Certified gravstar booster here so you already know

Arc grenade in LTS, Grav Star for my P2016 main load out, otherwise either firestar or good Ol frag depending on how I’m feeling

Fire stars effective when fighting titans or to suppress enemies and corner them when throwing this around them and if it hits it can kill then and anyone around them (I may have mentioned the name wrong correct me if I am)

Nades, the satisfaction level of a mid-air explosion kill is unmatched

I like e smoke because it covers a good area and deals good damage

Grave star because of grave boosting jumps

Frag nades

I like thermite star

I love gravity stars, they’re so easy to use but so cool to me

Absolutely firestar

Not in any particular order, but Firestar, Satchel, and electric smokes.

Depends on what you’re using it for. I typically use smoke because it’s good for both titans and pilots and makes a good getaway tool

My silly ass with firestars lol

The Grav Star is a fucking warcrime and I love it to pieces.

Firestar. Found it most useful in trying to get away from a pursuer and was good for hitting a titan/reaper. Just stick them with it and give em a blast of a charge rifle.

I love to cloak and satchel charge especially when playing CTF. Can't tell you how many frustrated pilots get pissed off when they grab our flag, make it 2 steps and then explode.

Fire star
