Talk:Plasma Grenade/@comment-24666590-20160109173723

Been doing some testing on a few factions to see the exact amount of damage they deal to us with different elements and at different levels. Tests seem to show that a level 1 lancer does 90 damage with plasma grenades. Damage does not fall off with range either. Whether you are right on top of the grenade or at the outter edge of it's blast radius, you still take 90 heat damage.

So with enemy scaling, plasma grenades should do the following damage at each level...

Level 1 = 90

Level 10 = 129

Level 20 = 220

Level 30 = 345

Level 40 = 501

Level 50 = 682

Level 60 = 887

Level 70 = 1114

Level 80 = 1361

Level 90 = 1628

Level 100 = 1914

These damages are before your armor reduces the damage, so the damage you take will be less than listed here. Someone like Chorma or Valkyr would reduce these values greatly when their health gets hit however because of their high armor. Shields will always take the above listed damage since there is no damage modifiers for shields against heat damage.

So if you think plasma grenades hit hard,  you are correct. They are very deadly indeed.
