Explosive bait

Explosive bait is a weapon in Fallout 76.

Background
One of the signature weapons of the Trappers raider gang, the plans to create explosive bait is given to the player character by Rose during the quest Flavors of Mayhem. Rose also lets the player character know that it was invented by one of the gang members by the name of Chuck.

It can be equipped and thrown onto the ground near an enemy, similar to a fragmentation mine except that the bait also functions as an attractant. Once the enemy is attracted to the bait and approaches it, the bomb will explode damaging the enemy.

Rose suggests that this bait should be used on a "hungry carnivore," so it may not be effective with all types of enemies.
