How To Get and Use the Human Grenade in R.E.P.O.

In the chaotic world of *R.E.P.O.*, upgrading your arsenal is key to survival. While many items offer assistance, the Human Grenade stands out as a particularly potent weapon. This guide will walk you through acquiring and utilizing this explosive device.

Unlike other items, the Human Grenade isn't readily available. It's tucked away in the Secret Shop, a hidden location accessible after completing the first round and returning to the Service Station. While stocking up on supplies, look for a removable ceiling tile near the Health Packs. This reveals the entrance to the Secret Shop.

Accessing the Secret Shop solo requires some ingenuity. You'll need to acquire one of the following items: Feather Drone, Zero gravity Drone, or Shockwave Mine. These items can help you reach the shop's entrance after removing the tile. Some players report using stacked objects, but this method is less reliable. Therefore, it's advisable to save up the necessary funds ($2000 or more) to purchase one of the aforementioned items.

Cooperative play simplifies access. A player can minimize their character, allowing a teammate to assist them into the shop using objects for elevation.

Once inside, the Human Grenade awaits, priced at $2,000. While you're there, consider picking up the Duct Tape Grenade, a more powerful explosive crafted from Human Grenades.

How to Use the Human Grenade in R.E.P.O.

The Human Grenade is a throwable weapon with a 10-meter range, shorter than the Stun or Shock Grenades. Its unique feature is its ability to damage both monsters and players, so remember to clear the blast radius after throwing it.

While initially appearing as an upgrade to the standard Grenade, the Human Grenade's effectiveness is debatable. The Duct Tape Grenade, also found in the Secret Shop, generally offers superior damage output. Choose wisely, as facing monsters with inadequate explosives can be disastrous.
