A)How am I supposed ti survive with my penta not blowing up on my face? My own penta is the main reason I dir as excalibur or other squishy frames.

B)So I tried this on infested. I used banshee and used sonar then I shot them down with ny penta I noticed doing alit more kills but is it actually affected or was I just lucky.

C)What good weapon is there to go together with penta f9r mid range combat I use meele for close range but I end up killing myself when I use penta in close range

Sonar discription from Wiki- "Using acoustic location, BANSHEE's SONAR power finds and tracks enemies, and exposes critical weak spots to everyone in your squad".

A) Shoot your Penta and detonate the grenades away from you. It's not a shotgun, you know, it is supposed to be used from a distance.

 

B) Explosions cover all of the enemy's body, including Sonar's weakspots, so the damage multiplier applies no matter where you detonate.

 

C) For close range I recommend Detron or Brakk, Bronco or Bronco Prime if you find those difficult to obtain.

A] See question C.

 

B] Penta 1 shots things anyway

 

C] Use a rapid fire weapon as secondary.

for the penta, shoot and count to 3 before you detonate 

then learn how it flies and bounces

 

The trick to surviving an explosion is not to hit yourself

Also, be sure to fire above enemy's heads rather than at them, so there's no chance of a bad bounce coming back to explode in your face.
