Mods
  • Payload
    •   Special Maneuvers
  • Direct Hit: Instead of designating a point within range, make an attack roll against a chosen target within range. If the target is hit successfully, the target will take 1d8 AP I Bludgeoning damage plus your Strength modifier. Otherwise, the grenade will continue until its maximum distance or an obstacle is reached and then detonate.
    •   Special Properties
  • Electric Shock - Targets that have failed their saves are Dazed and cannot take reactions until the start of your next turn. Constructs and Robotics are Stunned if they fail their save until the start of your next turn. Vehicle drivers or pilots must make a Constitution saving throw against the grenade's DC or lose control. Vehicles struck by this weapon lose control if the driver or pilot fails a Constitution saving throw against a DC equal to 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Strength or Dexterity modifier (whichever is higher).
  • Explosive - Radial effect: 20 foot radial sphere originating from detonation point, all targets in the radius must make a Dexterity saving throw against a DC equal to 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Strength or Dexterity modifier (whichever is higher). Successful saves take half damage. The grenade's charge is consumed on use. Any target hit by a Direct Hit has disadvantage on their saving throw against the grenade.
  • Light
  • Rechargeable - This device can be retrieved then recharged after finishing a short or long rest.
  • Thrown
    •   Weight: 1   Handling: 1-Handed

    A device that emits arcs from a bank capacitor stored in the metal shell which electrifies all targets inside its radius, preventing them from reacting. This has a stronger effect against robotics and other targets with sensitive electronics.
