Grenade Mods

On Pandora there is one type of Grenade but many mods for it that dramatically alter the grenades abilities. This grenade is called a "Protean Grenade". It derived the name Protean, as it means versatile - referring to the ease of modding the grenades. Grenades have buttons on them which are for programming the various grenade mod effects.

You can find grenades in various containers, from enemies, and can be purchased from Ammo Vendors for $98 for a pack for three.

Grenades by themselves are not very strong, however, when you combine them with mods,their power can increase exponentially.

There are 9 types of Grenade Mods, each with their own elemental/non-elemental offerings.

Below is a list of the grenade mods and their corresponding descriptions, as well as the grenade mod manufacturer information.

Bouncing Betty - Made by Dahl

Bouncing betty grenades will throw like a standard grenade, however, when the grenade reaches its location, it will bounce into the air. Upon bouncing into the air, the bouncing betty will explode, sending additional grenades in the surrounding area, spreading the grenade's effect. Because of these bounces, are good for fighting enemies that are hiding behind objects.

Contact Made by Maliwan

Contact grenades explode immediately when made contact with an enemy. If they do not hit an enemy, the grenade will explode seconds later. This grenade mod is great for characters like Brick, or for users that tend to melee a lot. This is because the closer you are to your enemy, the less likely your contact grenade is to miss.

Longbow - Made by Hyperion

Longbow grenades can be deadly if used right. When the hero throws a longbow grenade, the grenade immediately disappears, while traveling at an extremely high speed. After a few seconds, the grenade teleports to its location and explodes. Longbow grenades can reach incredible distances if nothing stops it, however if anything that a regular grenade wouldn't be able to pass through stops it, it will explode on that location. Longbow grenades may bounce slightly too and can penetrate some types of enemy barriers.

MIRV - Made by Torgue

MIRV grenades are great against clusters of enemies. MIRV grenades throw like a normal grenade, however, when the grenade explodes), it will deploy several additional grenades that will explode as well. MIRV grenades can be used to explode in the air just like Bouncing Betty grenades, however, the hero must make sure that the grenade is in the air for three seconds, for it to not explode on the ground.

Proximity Mine - Made by Vladof

Proximity Mines(grenades) are useful against moving enemies. When the hero throws a proximity mine, the mine plants itself in the location that it falls on to and is engaged after approximately two seconds. After the proximity mine is engaged, it will not explode until an enemy comes within its radius. It is important to note however, that many enemies will actually be smart enough to dodge proximity mines. All the same however, proximity mines are great in missions where you can place mines in an area before triggering the enemies. Proximity grenades have a lifetime of approximately two minutes.

Rain - Made by Atlas

Rain grenades are similar to bouncing betty grenades, due to the fact that they launch normally and launch into the air. The difference however, is that with the exception of explosive element, rain grenades don't launch out. Each element causes a different effect. If the grenade is a corrosive, incendiary, or shock element, than the grenade will rain down acid, fire, and lightning bolts respectively. As stated before, if the grenade is an explosive element, it will launch additional grenades like a bouncing betty.

Rubberized - Made by Pangolin

A rubber grenade has similar properties to a contact grenade and a proximity grenade, but bounces as well. When the hero throws the grenade, the grenade will continuously bounce off of any surface and then will explode. When the grenade makes contact with an enemy or is within a certain distance of them, it will explode. This bouncing makes the grenade impossible for any enemy (no matter how smart) to avoid. Although the bouncing travels the grenade further, it can seriously lower accuracy. To make up for this, try to use rubberized grenades in small rooms and areas.

Sticky - Made by S&S Munitions

Sticky grenades will immediately stick to the first thing they make contact with and will blow up after a few seconds. These are useful if the enemy has a weak point that you can stick the grenades to.

Transfusion - Made by Anshin

Transfusion grenades are the only type of grenade mods that do not do elemental damage. Instead, transfusion grenades will take health from nearby enemies and propane tanks, and will heal the player, the player’s allies, claptraps nearby, and/or Rolland's scorpio turret. These grenades are not very powerful so only use them if you have problems keeping your HP up.9
