In *R.E.P.O.*, battling monsters can be a challenging endeavor, but acquiring the right items, like the Human Grenade, can significantly ease your struggles. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to find and effectively use this unique explosive in the game.

Where to Find the Human Grenade in *R.E.P.O.*

Unlike other readily available items in *R.E.P.O.*, the Human Grenade is tucked away in a more elusive spot: the Secret Shop. Fortunately, you can access this shop between rounds, sparing you the hassle of fighting off Clowns or other creatures to obtain it.

To reach the Secret Shop, you must first complete the initial round and return to the Service Station. While restocking on supplies, locate the ceiling tile near the Health Packs. This tile is your entry point to the Secret Shop, though accessing it solo can be tricky. Here are the tools you can use to enter the Secret Shop after removing the tile:

  • Feather Drone
  • Zero Gravity Drone
  • Shockwave Mine

Some players have tried stacking objects within the Service Station to reach the Secret Shop, but this method is often cumbersome. The most reliable approach is to save up enough currency to purchase one of the aforementioned items.

If you're playing with friends, accessing the Secret Shop becomes much simpler. One player can minimize themselves and be guided into the shop by another standing on a cart or similar object.

Once inside the Secret Shop, you can purchase the Human Grenade for $2,000. While there, don't miss the opportunity to also pick up the Duct Tape Grenade, which is composed of Human Grenades and can add further firepower to your arsenal.

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

The Human Grenade is a throwable item in *R.E.P.O.* with a range of approximately 10 meters, shorter than that of the Stun Grenade and Shock Grenade. What sets it apart from a regular Grenade is its ability to harm both players and monsters. Therefore, it's crucial to move out of the blast radius after throwing one.

While the Human Grenade might seem like an upgrade, its practical benefits are debatable. The Duct Tape Grenade, also available in the Secret Shop, offers significantly more destructive power. When deciding what to add to your inventory, consider the Duct Tape Grenade as it can make a more substantial impact against the relentless monsters of *R.E.P.O.*.

This guide covers how to acquire and utilize the Human Grenade in *R.E.P.O.*. For further insights, explore the various monsters in the game and learn effective escape strategies.

R.E.P.O. is available now on PC.
