Fire Grenade

The Fire Grenade is an uncommon grenade that creates an explosion with a 2-tile radius. When it detonates, it has a 100% chance to spawn napalm, making it useful for turning an area into lingering fire damage after the initial blast.

Because of its napalm creation, the Fire Grenade is more than a simple burst-damage throwable: it can control space and punish enemies that move through the affected area. Its relatively small blast radius means it is best used at close range or against tightly grouped enemies, where both the explosion and the resulting napalm can contribute to damage. The lingering effect also makes it effective for blocking movement in narrow passages or around chokepoints.

When using the Fire Grenade, placement matters. Throwing it directly into a pack of enemies or into a corridor can maximize the value of the napalm it leaves behind. Since the explosion is limited to 2 tiles, it is less suited to large-area clearing than higher-radius explosives, but it compensates by adding persistent hazard after impact.
