Explosives



Explosives are among the most powerful weapons in the game. They can stun or kill large groups of enemies.

Explosives

 * Cherrybomb
 * Cherrybombs, or Gunpowder plants, can be found growing on land in small clusters of branches. They are thrown at a medium force, and upon being thrown will release a series of loud popping noises. While these noises are harmless to all creatures, they will scare away medium predators (such as lizards) and will temporarily deafen or knock over slugcat.
 * Explosive Spears
 * Explosive spears are spears draped with a red cloth, presumably made using Gunpowder plants, and are frequently found carried or stashed by Scavengers. They handle the same as a regular spear, but upon being stuck in a creature or surface, they will let out a few harmless pops similar to a gunpowder plant, and then one large and dangerous explosion. If a thrown explosive spear hits a surface it cannot stick into, it will instead explode immediately. The explosion of a single spear will not kill slugcat directly, but when the spear is stuck in an enemy the explosion will deal a great amount of damage. Explosive spears are one of the most useful items for taking down massive threats, but can also be easily misfired, making them deadly if used without caution.
 * Grenades
 * Grenades, or bombs, much like explosive spears, are typically found in areas associated with scavengers. They are small black orbs with a red center. When thrown, grenades will instantly explode on impact, dealing sizable damage to anything caught in the blast, flinging it away with great force. If caught within a small blast radius around the grenade, slugcat will instantly be killed. They function similarly to explosive spears, though they do not have a delay and cannot pierce into creatures/walls.
