    I can’t recall being TKed as much as I ever was yesterday. The radius on the Orbital Napalm is ridiculous. Even with servo-assisted armor, you can chuck it as far as you can and still be in range.

    I love it!

      lol I wiped out my whole team yesterday with one. I did not expect such a large radius.

      Right when one teammate respawned he ran straight into my orbital precision strike on a charger and died again.

      I’ve never hit the sorry button so much.

      Brings back memories of throwing your first 380mm barrage. Then running away in a mad panic.

      You can throw about 50 to 60 meters without servo assist, 75 to 80 with … That’s more that enough to be outside the blast radius

      Used it multiple times and watched from where I chucked it without being too close to any of it, and I was using the flame resistant armor

        I think the throw distances are 44m without and 66m with servo assist. Elevation obviously makes a big difference too.

            Same… 45 degree upward angle, hold right click, move forward as you throw, you’ll get consistently good throws
