Grenade

Grenades are an Explosive Weapon in Fortnite: Battle Royale. They were added in the Pre-Season.
==Functionality==
Grenades are thrown by the player using the arc provided. Once thrown, the grenade starts a three second timer. After the three seconds is up, the grenade will explode, dealing damage in a small radius around where it stopped moving / detonated.
Grenade explosions will not set off other grenades in the area prematurely, and grenades cannot be 'cooked' by holding on to them before throwing.
If a grenade is thrown into water, it will remain stationary until it explodes.

==Strategy Guide ==
*if you place on marker on the enemy go to the top of the marker and then go down you can almost always get a hit
*Grenades are very good for attacking a player who is repeatedly building, as lobbing several grenades at their structure will not only weaken it / destroy it, but it has the potential to eliminate the player afterwards.
*Understanding how far a grenade will go after it has been thrown before detonating allows a player to effectively control exactly where a grenade will explode, rather than dealing with the potential bounces and rolling of a thrown grenade.

==Trivia==
*Grenades are a different item to the projectile shot from a Grenade Launcher. They also cannot be used as Ammunition for said weapon.
*The thrown model for the Grenade not only has the pin still in, but also the lever, which means the Grenade wouldn't detonate at all in reality.
*Due to the stats for the Grenade used in Fortnite OG being based on a manual data override system, it has incorrect placeholder stats in Creative, being borrowed from the regular grenade.
