Activate To Explode
The C4 is a high-explosive lethal that has a large blast radius but a limited throw range. It sticks to surfaces and can be incredibly useful when used against enemy armor. When used correctly, it can kill a large group of enemy with a single explosion. You can pick it up again after you deploy it.
C4 Lethal Multiplayer Tips
Set As A Trap
C4's emit a bright light when set. However, if you use corners to hide them, you can use them as makeshift traps for incoming enemies. Do note that you need to observe the path so use Spyplanes, or Field Mics in order to time the explosion correctly.
Clear Rooms With C4
With its wide blast radius, a single C4 can virtually wipe out everyone inside a small room. As you do not need to cook it like a grenade, toss it in and immediately trigger it for maximum effect.
Very Limited Throw Range
Tossing a C4 can leave you very vulnerable. You can't toss it like a Grenade to ricochet off walls and its toss range is very limited. Take note of this and carefully think of situations in which you can safely deploy this Lethal.
Use To Defend Or Assault Objectives
Given its large blast radius, the C4 can be an effective tool when clearing objective points. Just a good toss and you can easily eliminate clusters of enemies in the objective area.
C4 Can Be Damaged
Unlike the Frag Grenade, the C4 can be damaged to destroy it. Enemies can shoot your C4 to render them useless. So activate it as soon as you can. Remember that you can also shoot to counter their C4s too!
Double C4 With Danger Close
The Danger Close Wildcard effectively doubles your Tacticals and Lethals, allowing you more firepower whenever you spawn. With the C4, you can double the area and the damage that you can deal with this Wildcard. Unfortunately, the disadvantage is that you must throw both of the C4s in order to activate them.
