While less protective than Marine Armor, it gives the user the ability to launch up to two frag grenades at will before requiring a reload. These weapons are equivalent to the [[Frag grenades|regular thrown variant]] but do not take up a weapon slot. This can be useful to give the user flexibility in combat, such as giving [[Sniper rifle|snipers]] a crowd control option. | While less protective than Marine Armor, it gives the user the ability to launch up to two frag grenades at will before requiring a reload.

Grenadier armor is a half step below Marine armor, the middle tier power armor, in terms of protection. While it is still as or more protective than an equivalent set of [[Recon armor]], it only really maintains its superiority against sharp threats. Against secondary threats like blunt and fire, it is largely equivalent. Unlike marine armor, recon armor of better quality offers superior protection, while for some tiers it must be 2 tiers higher than a set of [[Cataphract armor]] to be more protective. | Grenadier armor is a half step below Marine armor, the middle tier power armor, in terms of protection.

− | + | Compared a [[flak vest]] and [[duster]], the grenadier armor offers strictly superior protection to the arms and legs when all items are the same [[quality]], regardless of duster material. The interactions of two layers are dictated by the games [[Armor#Armor Rating|Armor Rating calculations]], and the result is that grenadier armor provides torso, neck and shoulders protection approximately equivalent to the combination of a [[devilstrand]] duster and flak vest, assuming all items are the same quality. However replacing the devilstrand with [[hyperweave]] or [[thrumbofur]] results in more protection to those areas. So while grenadier armor is more protective than a devilstrand duster and flak vest, when compared to better duster materials, the overall impact of the opposing traits of superior arm and leg protection and inferior torso, neck and shoulder protection on pawn survivability is currently unclear. However in this comparison, it should be noted that several vital organs are in the torso and the destruction of these can result in immediate death. It should also be noted that grenadier armor comes with a [[Move Speed]] debuff of -0.40 c\s, while a flak vest has a penalty of only -0.12c/s meaning there may be a reason to choose the flak vest and duster even with inferior protection. | |
− | {{ | + | ===Grenade launcher=== |
+ | The armor contains an integrated grenade launcher with similar stats to [[frag grenades]] but which does not prevent the wearer from using another [[weapon]] nor a [[utility]] item. Up to two grenades can be launched before the launcher must be reloaded with 25 [[steel]] per grenade. The process takes {{ticks|60}}. The grenades can be reloaded individually or all at once. The pawn will never automatically use the launcher - instead it must be manually activated by the player similar to [[Utility]] items. It is unclear if this restriction also applies to NPCs. | ||
− | + | When wearing a shield belt, only adjacent squares (including diagonals) can be targeted with the launcher, meaning that self-detonation is likely. However, the protection offered by grenadier armor and the delay before detonation means that, with careful timing, the wearer can escape without injury, making it a dangerous but potentially useful option in emergencies. | |
