Grenade Launcher?

[Cruel Justice]

Browsed the shop, no dice. Near end game so I can't see it being unlocked later. I remember enjoying the nade launcher in DF, so would be sad if its gone in this game save for on Is0bel :(

Hrm, now that you mention it, I don't remember seeing the grenade launcher in the shop. There was only one grenade launcher in Dragonfall, though, so it's possible that it only appears in the shops at a specific time in Hong Kong (since they start phasing out the lower-tiered weapons toward the end of the game).

You can buy a grenade launcher for 500 nuyen from the weapon merchant the first time you enter the walled city on the first story run, he's on the corner of the maps lower level, right next to the animal smuggler's door. I got it on my pistol samurai, and I'm still using it as a sidearm for when I need AOE.

It's really good against the mages on top of the skytower.

Damn, can't believe i missed it! Bummer. Thanks though for pointing out where it is. Will certainly be picking it up on future playthroughs.

This is strictly on a side note, but for anyone deciding on which choices to take at every even CHA level, DO NOT choose ganger. I used it once I think on Gaichu's mission and havent seen it pop up again :/

It's used a couple of times, but yeah, it's one of the less used etiquettes.

The most notable times you can use it, off the top of my head, are...

1) To convince Bao's guards to let you talk to Bao during the first mission to Kowloon.
2) To convince the Red Spears to let you investigate the garage during the Red Spears mission.

I think there are three other times it's used, but I can't recall them offhand.

Yeah those are the two I recall, havent seen any other yet. Did not know about the strangler bao one since i let that spirit get its much deserved revenge.

I've got the launcher but I can't seem to use the thing. I've got 2 AP for the round, it's equipped, but when I click it or the launch action, there's nothing to indicate targeting. I just get the move icon. It's loaded, looks good. Is there something obvious I'm missing?

[letir]

Launchers should be aimed at target, just like any other weapon. Only grenades/AOE spells can be used on the inteded zone.

[BrotherBabyface]

Ah! I'll try that thanks!

Is0bel also has a grenade launcher, and you can upgrade hers.

That's insane to me. I had to go into the editor to even find out the spirit revenge option existed. I always try to non-combat my way through the first KWS run.

As long as you can summon the spirit, you can see the revenge option. But, setting it loose means that you must have at least Spirit Summoning 3 for the aftermath, and failing the optional objective has no benefits to you.

On grenade launchers, they are nerfed in the bonus campaign as some enemies can now throw them back.
