Is anyone else having problems with the flux grenade lately? Yesterday all day in pvp it seemed to be having problems for me, but the day before I was getting plenty of kills with it without a single problem. The two problems I have experienced are the grenade bouncing off of the enemy on multiple occasions and one instance where it just disappeared completely after sticking.
I have hit multiple players with it directly just to have it bounce off of them and fall to the floor. I know I'm not missing because it doesn't just continue on its path past them, but instead literally bounces off of them and falls to the floor. Is this maybe because of an overshield or something like that? I wasn't aware that that made you immune to sticky grenades if so.
The other problem occurred while playing Rumble when I landed the flux grenade directly on my brother just to watch it literally disappear. No explosion or damage at all. He walked around with it glowing on his chest for about 1 or 2 seconds and then instead of blowing up, it just magically disappeared at which point he then killed me with his fusion rifle. There wasn't even an explosion behind him as if it fell off or just missed but looked like a hit because of lag or something. Neither of us were experiencing any noticeable lag at any point last night either.
The bouncing off of enemies thing was annoying, but the whole sticking to an enemy and then literally disappearing right before your eyes was just too much. There's zero purpose in using the flux grenade if it doesn't even reliably stick to enemies.

I've run into hit box issues in PvE, especially sniping baddies in the top of the head behind cover and grenade throws/ rockets at wizards. I'm pretty accurate with my nades and have seen them and rockets sail right through wizards...
