Talk:Anskum-pattern plasma grenade



I don't agree with the electro-static theory of how the plasma grenade sticks to people and not walls. The section states that trees, and walls are grounded, while people and vehicles are not. Speaking from a real-life perspective, since people are touching the ground, they are electrically grounded. That is why if you touch an electrical socket, you will be shocked (please don't try this). Vehicles are also grounded in the same fashion (touching the ground).

This is halo it doesn't have to make perfect sense--Irving 23:23, 2 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Warthogs can't be grounded because thier tires are rubber and thereforean electrical current cannot be created! :p Kerek 04:19, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Grenade Symbol

 * doesn't it look like theres a green forerunner symbol on the grenades, in the middle of the orange part? or is it just me? Phil.e. 00:08, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it is. -- Dragonc laws ( talk ) 00:12, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * What does the symbol mean and is it on anything else? -- SPDR [[Image:SpiderSig.jpg|40px]] TALK 01:37, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Symbol and pride of halo
I think the plasma grenade itself should be unique and respected symbol, representing the fun and sport of halo campaign and multiplayer because without it we would never get to watch enemies scream and struggle to get it off,it would be harder to perform tricks and button combos, and most of all without it we could'nt say           YOU JUST GOT STUCK!!! ,respect it!--0nyx Sp1k3r 23:44, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

how come the grenade wouldnt stick to anyone until after its thrown

becuase the plasma grenade needs to be primed (a button pressed on it). After 1-2 seconds (assumable amount of time for someone to throw the grenade), its able to fuse. The grenade(note: an excuse so I don't get questioned again) still emits a slight amount of plasma, which means that humans can still get Boren's Syndrome from throwing, say, a whole crate of plasma grenades.

Designation
Just speculation but i think 'Nade is Type-1[insert something here like Antipersonel] because Spike'nade is Type-2 and Flame'nade is Type-3. -pelicangrunt unlogged

Until official ocnfirmation we can't do mcuh though i thought of it as Type-1 Antipersonel Concussion Grenade :P --Ajax 013 22:15, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Heh, i was (almost) right, it is Type-1, and it was Antipersonel =) -pelicangrunt unlogged

Sticky
Could the grenade stick by reacting to electrical fields such as the bioelectrics of living creatures (nerves provide more than plant matter) and electrics of vehicles?

maybe. No one knows for sure how it sticks.--EliteSpartan  My Talk My Contribs  03:52, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Impossible to release?
Is it just me, or doesn't some brutes manage to take it off and throw it right back at you in Halo 2? Some only partially, resulting in the hilarious situation of them standing victoriously with it in their hand at the moment it explodes. I'm pretty sure I've seen both happen.
