Plasma Grenade

A plasma grenade is a thrown weapon that appears in all of the Fallout games. Plasma grenades release a burst of ionized plasma gas when detonated, rather than the typical explosion propelling fragments of normal hand grenades. This intense cloud of super-heated plasma can reduce targets to a puddle of green goo.

MFC grenade


An improvised grenade using the power of a microfusion cell to release a blast of plasma similar to a plasma grenade. This grenade is craftable at a work bench from 3 microfusion cells, or can be recovered individually from a placed MFC cluster.

Nuka-grenade


A Nuka-grenade is a craftable custom weapon in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, which exploits the explosive properties of Nuka-Cola Quantum when mixed with some common household chemicals. It does more damage than a standard frag grenade, and explodes in a colorful periwinkle fireball. Oddly enough it makes the sound a Nuka-Cola makes when dropped, equipped, etc.

Plasma grenade


Plasma grenades, as their name suggests, emit a powerful burst of plasma energy when detonated, as opposed to using chemical explosives like those in a frag grenade.
