You've all heard the song, even if you don't know the name. It's perhaps the most British tune ever outside "God Save The Queen" and "Colonel Bogey's March"
So, how do we make a Grenadier in PS2?
Obviously the role should emphasize explosives, lots of them, with the idea of being kitted out to breach a secured point room by excessive application of explosives.
Heavy Assault seems to be a natural place to start. For someone who is going to be doing close quarter fighting, a SMG or shotgun seems like a natural choice. So my Grenadier is going to rock a Gladius, being the standout SMG the NC has access to.
Sidearm doesn't really matter too much in this case. As for launcher, I want one that can dumb fire and do damage to infantry.
For ability slot, the Nanite Mesh Generator seems far and away the best, since ideally you will only be exposing yourself for short period of times and you critically won't have the benefit of Flak or Nanoweave Armor.
For suit slot, this is where we dispense with the HA's usual stand-bys (NW and FA) and instead take Bandolier so we can carry an extra 3 grenades. I could see an argument for taking C4 in the Utility slot and becoming the ultimate explosive expert, but I'm more interested in explosives I can pitch, and for that reason, I'm going to just leave tried and true med-kits in the slot.
No Implants stand out to me here, so I'm just equipping Battle Hardened and Ocular Shield as two useful implants to have for a CQB situation around point rooms. And...voila.
Is it a super good build? Eh, I'm not sure about that. Does it feel fun to fling a bottomless sack of grenades at fools while you listen to a fife and drum blaring in your ear? I'll let you be the judge XD
