Gas Bomb

The gas bomb is a placed explosive weapon in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Dead Money.

Characteristics
The gas bomb is an improvised explosive incendiary device. It is constructed from sensor modules strapped to a fire extinguisher. The weapon functions like other land mines, and will burst into a ball of fire and shrapnel, setting the target alight, causing explosive and fire damage.

It is thrown a short distance when placed, similar to the MFC cluster, instead of being dropped nearby like other mines. Like all other placed explosives, it cannot be used in V.A.T.S.

Crafting
This weapon can be crafted by the player.

Creation requirements

¹ Craftable without a workbench via a dialogue option with Veronica, or with ED-E once the add-on Lonesome Road is installed.

Locations
Used by and found on ghost seekers in the Sierra Madre.

Bugs

 * Gas bombs do not ignite leaking gas pipes or other flammable sources.
 * Gas bombs cannot be shot while being thrown by a ghost seeker, or while they're being held by them, despite in-game conversations suggesting that as a tactic.
