Frags and Plasmas are actually fun to toss near elites, rather than at them, when they are near the edges of bridges and such. I love watching them plummet to their death (as opposed to me for a change!) and seeing the shields discharge and all. Those flailing arms. Grunts are absolutely hilarious to do this too. They usually have great dialogue when they are diving out of the way.
A rocket launcher or Scorpion round near an elite is one of the best ways to get them into odd places. There are alot of rock, boulder and wall nooks, crannies and tops that they would normally not be able to get too and the detonation of a near enough to move but not so close to kill round can do fun things. One of the most common is where you first get a tank on AotCR at the iced pond, just to the right of the tree near the tank, that cliff side will hold an elite at a very funny angle, and he will not jump off.
It is a bigger challenge to get a live enemy somewhere, but alot of fun can be had moving dead bodies with explosions. Piling needles into a covie corpse can be especially satisfying. The end hangar battle of Keyes, when all of the enemies are dead usually has a hanger floor littered with at least 6 bodies, numerous unexploded plasma grenades and such. I have had much fun moving all of those bodies out of the hanger to the ring surface below with the explosive help of needlers and plasmas. Very amusing stuff!
This is one of the areas that actually improved with H2. It is not that often that I speak (or type) kindly about H2, but with Sputnik, Catch and GBP, well things can get very very amusing!
