This mod adds over 150 grenades (156) classified into 3 categories:

• Deathfog Grenade – Sold by the trader; Act 2 introduces a mini-quest to obtain it.
  
• Grenade Ingredients – Crafted from vanilla grenades using a Tinkerers Box (gotten from trader).
  
• Combo Grenades – Created by combining ingredients. Found on grenade belts. Casting consumes ingredients.

Vanilla grenades are still useful – they become crafting bases! You can create three types of ingredients:
Crackers, Bomblets, and Nukes, each with 6 elemental variants:
Air, Earth, Fire, Physical, Poison, Water. The recipes can be unlocked by talking to Trader Nugget or you can read about them HERE[docs.google.com].

💡 Tip: Activate the Crafter’s Kit in the Gift Bag menu to unlock even more grenade crafting options!

Once you have ingredients, you can cast them directly or combine them into powerful combo grenades. These are unlocked by equipping grenade belts, which come in six types (Air, Earth, Fire, Physical, Poison, Water) and are found as loot or sold by traders. Casting (combo) grenades will earn you mastery Xp for that element!

Each belt grants 3–7 combo grenades depending on its rarity. These grenades require 2–3 specific ingredients and can only be cast if you have them. Used ingredients are consumed, but grenades have no cooldown, so you can cast again if you have more.

Combo grenades also have rarities—higher-tier belts unlock stronger combos later in the game. Full details and the complete list of 136 combo grenades can be found HERE[docs.google.com].

A few examples of grenades include:

• Supersonic Grenade which pushes characters away from the caster and deals damage
  
• Rotten Egg & Vinegar Grenade which sets smelly and grants the talent stench for 500 turns
  
• Multimensional Grenade a duo grenade where characters caught in portal 1 are teleported to portal 2 and vice versa

Besides the rarities of the grenade belts and the combo grenades, this mod offers another way to progress as a grenadier and keep the gameplay fresh. Namely: the mastery system.

The mastery system keeps track of how well you are versed in a certain grenade element. There are 6 in total; Air, Earth, Fire, Physical, Poison and Water. Casting grenades, killing hostile characters and dealing damage to hostile characters with a corresponding status (see below) earn the character experience in that category. Earn enough experience and rank up! Ranking up gives an immediate reward and an ongoing effect:



You gain experience by casting grenades, but there are ways to boost it. Higher levels increase experience gain, as does killing enemies with grenades. The Ambidextrous talent adds 30% more XP, and bonus XP is awarded for hitting enemies with matching statuses (e.g., fire grenade on a burning target).

Hold Shift while hovering over a grenade to see mastery progress and unlocks.

💡 Tip: Pip’s Epip Encounters mod – Enables a UI to track all mastery progress! Press 'J' in-game once you've cast atleast 1 grenade.

The grenadier mod introduces 2 unique traders named Nugget & Percy (Voice acted!), Nugget can be found camping outside fort joy on the broken bridge, Percy can be found in later acts. They sell grenades and crafting ingredients, as well as the combo grenade ingredients introduced by this mod. Furthermore they are your main supply of grenade belts! (though they can be found as random loot too). They even sell deathfog grenades for a very steep price. Talk to Percy at the Driftwood fishwork docs to start a quest; and maybe obtain a deathfog grenade for free!

The grenadier mod also modifies 2 grenade talents:

• Slingshot: This talent used to add 5 meters throwing range to grenades, but with the grenadier mod this talent now adds 0.5m extra range for all grenades (this includes combo grenades) for every point in strength above 10 the character has! This means that strength now also adds to a grenadier’s build and the sky's the limit!
  
• Ambidextrous: This talent lets you cast grenades and scrolls for 1ap less when having an empty offhand. While the talent will not affect the combo grenades ap cost, it will increase all grenade mastery experience by 30% when gaining experience with an empty offhand!

While the mod is in essence a lite overhaul for grenades it is probably pretty compatible with most mods. There are a few exceptions and that are mods that overhaul the way grenades work. I have made the mod compatible with Luxen's Vanilla plus (its a great overhaul) this means the following changes for both mods:

• The grenade scaling is handled by V+, they receive 2% for STR 3% for FIN and 5% for INT
  
• The 30% bonus damage from V+ Slingshot is too strong and therefor omitted
