Grenade Launcher
Grenade Launcher is a one-handed procedurally generated weapon model.
It can be common, uncommon, and rare. Common Grenade Launchers will shoot regular Grenades, while uncommon and rare Grenade Launchers shoot elemental plasma type Grenades.
Grenade Launchers are tricky weapons. While they certainly are deadly, some do struggle to hit their enemies due to their typically high energy cost, low range, and unpredictable bouncing. Most grenade launcher ammo types have different bounces, while some do not bounce at all. Most ammo types explode on contact with an enemy, making it relatively effective.
NPCs, hostile or otherwise, never use grenade launchers.

Grenade Types
All grenade types explode on direct contact with enemies. What distinguishes the different types from each other is what happens if they fail to contact enemies.
- Grenade: explosive which bounces off of surfaces and detonates after three seconds
- Impact Grenade: explosive which detonates immediately when it hits a surface
- Sticky Grenade: explosive which sticks to the first surface it hits, detonating after three seconds
- Proximity Mine: explosive which detonates when enemies get too close (or after 10 seconds)
Elemental Damage
Uncommon and Rare weapons have an assigned elemental damage type. Though both uncommon and rare grenade launchers have elemental visual effects, only rare grenade launchers inflict status effects with their grenades.
