They are absolutely garbage even with the aspect and the exotic. They either need to do more damage or actually track for more then .3 seconds before exploding.
There is no reason for the grenade to not even one shot but do horrible damage AND have a long cooldown. Either you buff the damage or lower the cooldown, but one needs to happen. I feel like the only reason they haven't touched scatter nades is because warlocks have nothing manacles and the aspect. It's okay if warlocks have strong tools Bungie lol.

Scatter grenades and Nothing Manacles haven’t been good since D1. Scatter grenades have been garbage throughout D2, and people got excited when Nothing Manacles were announced to return to Destiny. Turns out they make the grenade worse once you put them on. I wanna say they got buffed at some point, but probably not since no one runs them In Crucible
