In the chaotic battles 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 details how to acquire and effectively utilize this explosive device.
Unlike readily available items, the Human Grenade is tucked away in the game's Secret Shop, accessible after completing the first round and returning to the Service Station. Locating the Secret Shop requires a bit of ingenuity. Look for a removable ceiling tile near the Health Packs. Gaining access solo requires specific tools: a Feather Drone, Zero Gravity Drone, or Shockwave Mine. Alternatively, some players have reported success stacking objects, though this method is less reliable.
Cooperative play simplifies access; one player can minimize themselves while another guides them in using objects for elevation.
Once inside the Secret Shop, the Human Grenade awaits, priced at $2,000. While you're there, consider picking up the Duct Tape Grenade, a more powerful variant also available for purchase.

The Human Grenade boasts a 10-meter range, shorter than stun or shock grenades. However, its unique ability to harm both monsters *and* players sets it apart. Remember to clear the area after deploying one!
While tempting, the Human Grenade may not always be the optimal choice. The Duct Tape Grenade, found in the same shop, often proves more effective. Consider your strategy carefully when selecting your explosive loadout.
