There are a few threads with lots of opinions about the grenades so do take a look around and do a site search for grenades and see what comes up.

The stink pot and smoke bombs do not actually prevent enemy from attacking you, nor does it even slow them down at all. I mean not one little bit. The fire ones do DOT (damage over time) and may be of some value. The Siege charge are as big as bowling balls, however you can throw them the same distance as your other grenades and they do a ton of damage. The down side to siege is you cannot run while having them equiped, but still worth having IMO.

Practice your long throws until you can nail almost anything and you will LOVE the grenades. they are at least good at softening up an enemy before it gets to you if nothing else.

Put extra skill points in your long volley to add more damage. I filled up my dots on the basic grenade and have like 4 on long volley. I use long volley even on closer shots by letting go as soon as the meter comes up and it just rocks.
