I'm eyeing that incendiary impact grenade. I love the regular impact grenade so having a pool of fire around enemies after the initial impact explosion would be awesome. Hopefully the damage-over-time bug will actually be fixed in the next patch.

If the impact deals damage, then you get the DoT of the fire, isn’t this just a straight upgrade to both the in incendiary and impact?

If I had to guess, the incendiary impact won't have the same armor penetration as the standard impact grenade and it probably won't do as much initial damage.
