Haenel Sturmgewehr 44 Mod

Haenel Sturmgewehr 44 Mod
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Doesn't actually solve any of her problems

Aka StG44… Mod.

Behold, the power of a mod that tries to power her up but leaves her suffering from the exact same problems she did to begin with. Her firepower isn't boosted enough, even with the special equipment. Her skill's initial cooldown is still eight seconds, and you still don't get much bang for your buck.

Base version has a separate entry if you're not depressed enough yet.

Sten Mark II Mod

Sten Mark II Mod
Submachine Gun ★★★★ Has no idea wtf she's doing

She's not sure if she wants to be offensive or defensive, and kinda sucks at both. Her only real purpose for existing is "the story is kinda cute."

Base version isn't great either.

Agent 416

Agent 416
Assault Rifle Special KindamaybesortaIguess (Niche Use)

Proof that the universe contractually requires 416 to be a bitch, given trying to fix her shitty personality is what caused the problem in the first place. More hilarious is she's not even an HK416, but the Patriot Arms clone.

Instead of being a grenadier, she's basically a mine layer, planting mines that seem grenade-like, but the big thing is that THEY DO NOT IGNORE ARMOR. They do still do full damage to all units caught in the blast though.

She is however, pretty fast, taking only four seconds to use her skill for the first time, and having all three of her special gear means you start the battle with some mines in place already. This is potentially useful for something.

M4 SOPMOD MOD

M4 SOPMOD MOD
Assault Rifle ★★★★★ Pretty much the best straight Grenadier

If you're looking for an 8s Grenadier, well, she was always a very strong choice, and now she's pretty much almost the default one for most circumstances by sheer stats and having the 2 accessory slots. Improved Grenade performance (not that most enemies will notice) and bonus MIRVs on top of that. She does get bonuses with M4, but due to the fact M4's marks affect her targeting (and potentially are buggy with her MIRVs), using her with M4 is not always ideal.

Aside from that, it's the same old SOP, but with a unique equipment (thats pretty much just an improved Eotech) and bigger numbers.

A-91

Assault Rifle ★★★★ Interesting, but not very likely to be used

The best dorm doll with how fucking out of it she is, and with some absolutely amazing dialogue both as general lines and in her appearance in the CT story, and a great design. Her damaged art being fuckin' bonkers is great.

And that's where most of the praise is going because her performance is... well it's not dismal, but it suffers from the same 8-second ICD issue grenadiers have in general. Should that not be an issue though, her self buffs at night are actually alright, since it gives her more mileage than other grenadiers. You aren't very likely to use her though, simply because things like SOP still exist and will likely have better performance.

S&T Daewoo K11
Assault Rifle ★★★★★ Good

Totally not Architect in disguise. We think. Probably. A grenadier that's actually pretty ok at general use simple because she fires the grenades within a time frame where everything isn't fucking dead yet, and she fires a huge volley (1 per link) that finishes off targets if the first grenade doesn't kill them. On the flipside, firing 1 grenade per link ALSO means she doesn't reach full power until 5x linked, and also means every dummy lost is a loss in grenade power, unlike literally every other grenadier.

Her main problem is literally random targeting, so the grenades may or may not land in the ideal pattern, but they're at least hitting things and you get lots of grenades, so at worst the spread is not ideal rather than wasted

Heckler & Koch XM8

Heckler & Koch XM8
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Core fodder

Like her real life counterpoint, ultimately disappointment despite being not quite entirely worse than many competitors.

She's not the worst grenadier out there, but in the end, both 416 and SOPMOD are better than her, and you don't need more than a few grenadiers. She DOES have a mod now. Shame that outside of a few very niche scenarios, the above statement still applies.

MP40

MP40
Submachine Gun ★★ Enhancement Fodder

If for some reason you absolutely must have a 2 star Molotov. You get Skorpion for free really early so she doesn't see much use (though she does slightly outdamage skorpion). Has not great dodge and okay HP. She does however come with an adorable as hell Children's day skin so I wont entirely fault you for wanting to bring it.

Zastava M21

Zastava M21
Assault Rifle ★★★★★ Niche uses

Another grenadier that's not useless. Her grenade fires after just 4 seconds, making it actually matter, and either makes hit enemies take 115% damage for 3 seconds (3 or more hits) or buff her own damage by 60% for 8 seconds.

The self buff isn't too useful, giving her damage output on the lower end of usable at least, but since she hits a wide area she'll probably trigger the much more useful debuff. While much better dolls have largely obviated the need for this, maybe it'll be useful for someone. I dunno.

She does well at corpsedragging in some night maps but I don't know if anyone even does those anymore, doubly so since the main benefits {extreme low cost and mats for upgrading equipment} are no longer as relevant as they once were.

Haenel Sturmgewehr 44

Haenel Sturmgewehr 44
Assault Rifle ★★★ Core fodder

AKA StG44

Before: The source of the name Assault Rifle

Now: A source of cores

Mod isn't worth it either, but has its own entry.

FN Herstal FAL

FN Herstal FAL
Assault Rifle ★★★★★ Ex-Grenade Star. Not used anymore

The Right Arm of the Free World

There was a time she was good. That time was before we got grenadiers that shot as fast as she does. She does fire three grenades though, although they are weaker than everyone else's. Has the odd use here and there, but time and powercreep have not been kind to her.

Type 56-1

Type 56-1
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Core fodder (Until you mod her)

Grenadiers in this game suffer from being garbage unless they bring something special to the table. 416 has damage, SOPMOD has being a good AR, Zas has raw speed and area, and FAL has a triple blast. This pile of junk is a bad AK copy with a too-slow to do anything grenade. Her mod gives her actual consideration, but baseline is still cores.

United States Carbine, Caliber 5.56 mm, M4, SOPMOD II
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Usable

If it's not clear by now, AR team is pretty good. has the weakest grenade of the 3 major grenadier ARs (FAL/416/Herself), except she's the best actual AR and will outDPS FAL and 416 in direct fire due to good stats and having the same accessory/stat layout as AR15. Less desirable now that G11 and such are out, but still definitely not terrible as far as grenadiers go. Will not perform to the level of a proper direct fire AR though.

Problem is, grenadiers aren't terribly useful currently outside of some gigabrain ranking echelons. I say that because I'm covering my bases here. Never count grenades out.

You can find her mod here

Z-62

Z-62
Submachine Gun ★★★ Too Late to be useful

She actually has a decent hybrid skill and statset except she's locked behind LSC and a shit campaign grind so you'll probably have better by the time you can get her.

Sten Mk2

Sten Mk2
Submachine Gun ★★★ If desperate

Ablative armor and a grenade. Has a lot of HP for her rarity with a not so terrible evade, though YMMV between her and M38. Her main virtue is that she's the first 3 star you get from the story and they give you a pile of her so it's easy to stock up bodies. Only useful for logistics and cores once you have real tanks. If you happen across free PPS-43s, they're somewhat better.

Has a mod, but it's not great either.
