Where to put skill points on grenades?

[Twisted]

So it looks like you add more to the passive skills.

I don't see alot of situations where one would use grenades to fend off enemies(as other weapons help more, or get quicker hits to kill) so that was kinda my question about either adding the points, or just leaving them.

Might be just me, but I spent alot of time lvling in the same place. Mastered pistol and grenades there(Tormenta). Taking advantage of a glitch I guess, but why not when grenades are so hard to level. Using hex shots on molusks at first to drop voodoo and getting 100 for each. Sometimes the seabeards would get in, but not too hard to kill them off using no tonics. You can only sit on kingshead so long before getting +4 for each in the group! LOL

Keep the help coming, I would like more ideas.

Like I said before, my grenades are mastered so I would like to know if I really even need to add points to anything...

Yes add most of your points to passive bc i would not use nades alot so by the passives helping your characters health and so forth definatly put them on passive

Here's how I did it Twisted:

Combat Skills
3/5 Throw
1/5 Long Volley

Ammo Skills
5/5 Explosives
1/5 Stink Pot
1/5 Fire Bombs
1/5 Smoke Bombs
5/5 Siege Charge

Passive Skills
5/5 Determination
1/5 Demolitions
1/5 Toughness
2/5 Ignore Pain

I did demolitions just to have everything, but do I really need to do more damage, especially with seige charge maxed, and round shot and lightning maxed on my mastered cannoneering? Probably not. Toughness? How many times do you get hit with cannonballs or go up against grenadiers at this point. Again, just did it to have it. I like the Determination. Maybe would have put another point on Ignore Pain, although slow doesn't hurt me that much. All in all, I'm satisfied with how I applied points. Like you, I waited till I was done to add most of them. See you on Tormenta.
