While I was playing on my server, I stumbled apon 2
inventive uses for the HE grenade, but only if you have Friendly Fire on in the Zombie mod.
The first one, which I dubbed the "Grenade DASH" is helpful in those instances you want to leave the opposition in the dust (Litterally!) . When running from an enemy, throw your grenade directly at the ground: Infront of you works best. When the grenade bounces over you, slow down a bit so the grenade (When it hits the ground) is directly behind you. Crouch and jump the instant the 'nade touches the ground, and with the right timing, you'll boost a significant ways away and will be inmotion while you're running too. The Dash is also good for attacking over a distance with melee (Swords!) or leaping over long gaps.
The second is more vertically oriented and is extremly easy to do. For this reason I call it a Grenade hop. To use it, throw the grenade directly behind you while standing still, than hop backwards onto the grenade when it hits the ground on the second bounce. Depending on where you are when the grenade exploded, behind it or infront of it, you'll get a small boost (Walking speed..) in that direction, plus a REALLY HIGH JUMP. The closer you are to the grenade when it explodes the higher you'll jump, good for reaching high ledges or getting into a really high base that you just happened to forgot to add stairs to.
If this is in the wrong section, tell me.
