Large Plasma Explosion
Small Plasma Explosion
The Plasma Grenade is a craftable post-Moon Lord bomb. When used, the bomb is affected by gravity after a short time. When it collides with a surface or enemy, it explodes, dealing damage within the area.
Performing a stealth strike with the Plasma Grenade causes the resulting explosion to be larger and strike twice.
The weapon consumes 0.25 units of charge per use and has a maximum charge of 250. As such, the weapon can be used continuously from full charge 1000 times, or for 7 minutes and 13 seconds.
Its best modifier is Flawless.
