How To Get and Use the Human Grenade in R.E.P.O.

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 will walk you through acquiring and effectively using this explosive device.

Unlike other items readily available, the Human Grenade is tucked away in the game's Secret Shop. Conveniently accessible between rounds, you won't have to fight your way through monsters to obtain it. To reach the Secret Shop, complete the first round and return to the Service Station. Look for a removable ceiling tile near the Health Packs—this is your entrance. However, accessing the shop solo requires some ingenuity.

Here's how to breach the Secret Shop's ceiling in solo mode:

• Feather Drone
• Zero gravity Drone
• Shockwave Mine

While some players report success stacking objects, this method is less reliable. It's generally more efficient to acquire one of the items listed above.

Cooperative play simplifies access. One player can minimize their character while another uses objects like carts to reach and remove the ceiling tile.

Once inside the Secret Shop, the Human Grenade awaits, priced at $2,000. While you're there, consider purchasing 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. Its unique feature is its ability to damage both monsters and players, so be mindful of your positioning after throwing it.

Although initially appearing as a grenade upgrade, the Human Grenade's effectiveness is debatable. The Duct Tape Grenade generally offers superior damage output. Choose wisely, as facing powerful monsters with inadequate explosives can quickly end your run.
