Flashbang Tactical Multiplayer Tips
Tactical For Entering & Breaching
As the Flashbang completely blocks the vision of enemy players, this is highly recommended for assaulters or breachers. Aggressive players can use this to disable campers. Note that the Flashbang's effect can be blocked by objects, so ensure that you can land it in an unobscured area.
Turning Has No Effect
Turning your back against a Flashbang does not negate its effects. You must either hide behind an obstacle or use the Tactical Mask perk to reduce its effects.
Stun Grenade Vs. Flashbang
| Stun Grenade | Flashbang |
|---|---|
| - Cannot be blocked by objects - Affects enemy aim - Slows down enemies | - Can be blocked by objects - Affects vision - Does not affect speed |
The Stun Grenade heavily curtails the ability of a player in a few seconds. Its effects are also not blocked by objects unlike the Flashbang. Simply put, if you are thinking of playing defensibly, try the Stun Grenade. On the other hand, if you're more aggressive, take the Flashbang instead.
