Plasma Grenade (Fallout)

Plasma Grenades are a very rare, but powerful thrown explosive in Fallout and Fallout 2. When detonated, a small explosive in the grenade ruptures the magnetic seal containing a charge of superheated plasma energy. They are mainly used by the Hubologists and Mercenaries in random encounters, but also by the Enclave as well. It is not recommended to use them against the Enclave soldiers as their Advanced Power Armor can absorb around 50-80% damage. However, just about everyone and everything else has a low plasma resistance, making this grenade type the most useful late to end game.
