After playing with every weapon in the game I can safely say the grenades are the most powerful and are simply the best distance weapon against anything that isn't moving fast. Period.
For those who think the staff is best I'd say it is the coolest weapon, but not really the best. Why? Because the time it takes to precharge your spells allows you to take on too many hits against very high level enemy. The grenade is always instant.
My grenades are only just level 17 and I can take out level 33 raiders with ease using them. Note that I need help taking out that same raider using any other weapon combo or I end up using a tonic. With grenades I simply throw one from long distance, then throw a shorter distance one as they approach. I can then throw two more as I move backwards and they are dead without ever getting close to me. Only their throwing daggers touch me and hardly do much damage.
Every weapon in the game has its upside and situations where they don't work as well as other choices. The upside to the grenade is pure damage. If you spend your skill points well you can do more damage in one grenade than with any other weapon and you don't have to be close to them to use it.
Using long volley the grenade can go farther than anything else in game including the flameskull on staff (which goes a heck of a long way).
All it takes is a bit of practice on how to aim and how hard/far to throw them and hardly anything in the game can touch you if you use them right. Don't give up on the most powerfull weapon in the game.
