Special Grenade Effects

WARNING: Not intended for indoor use – Upon detonation grenade pops up into the air and releases a burst of "fireworks."

Usage & Description

Sky Rocket grenades fly straight out for a very short distance and then rapidly curves upwards until it flies straight upwards into the sky. At about 15 meters high it explodes, appearing visually as a small fireworks display, firing out relatively powerful sparklers, similar to a Bouncing Betty Grenade, that sprays all of its bullets at once.

Used indoors, where relatively low ceilings confine the subsequent explosion, the Sky Rocket can deal decent amounts of damage from above enemies' heads. It can also be thrown directly into the ground as the grenade will explode on contact with just about anything.

Ironically, and contrary to the flavor text stated on the weapon card, the grenade is of little use outdoor other than for its cosmetic effect, because the height of the explosion, where its area of effect won't damage any but the largest enemies, it might be because it is intended as a "firework" intsead of combat equipment.
