Plasma Grenade (Fallout)

Plasma grenades are weapons in Fallout and Fallout 2.

Characteristics
Plasma grenades are very rare, but powerful thrown explosives. When detonated, a small explosive in the grenade ruptures the magnetic seal containing a charge of superheated plasma energy.

It is not recommended to use them against advanced power armor as it 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.

Fallout

 * Found in the West Tek research facility.
 * Found on a shelf at the Friendly Lending Company.

Fallout 2

 * Shady Sands's Sheriff's department (NCR) has one in a container.
 * Sierra Army Depot courtyard, level 2, and level 4 has several plasma grenades in containers.
 * Carried by Hubologists in random encounters featuring five standing in a circle, one is guaranteed to have several on their person. Unlike most other situations, failing a steal does not provoke them into hostility and does not damage Karma/reputation, making plasma grenades potentially more plentiful than frag grenades.
 * Sometimes used by mercenaries in random encounters.
 * Sometimes used by the Enclave.
