EX Granades | Non-lethal grenades anti-BTs

A Guide saying how many grenades are, what are they for and how to craft them.

General information

The EX Grenades are grenades that can be effective only against BTs; mules will not be affected by them. To produce them you must go to bridges' room, or any safehouse.

About the Grenades

EX Grenade number 0



Function: Drive away the BT;

Production: Bathing. The dirtier you are with 'tar', more grenades will you produce;

Cargo per Grenade: 1;

EX Grenade number 1



Function: Distract the BT and makes it disappear for a few seconds (if it is a small BT);

Production: Urinating. The more your bladder is full, more grenades will you produce;

Cargo per Grenade: 4;

EX Grenade number 1+:



Function: Makes the BT flee to the Seam;

Production: Urinate it's just not enough, you must have your exhaustion bar (standard 4 parts) 75% compromised; you must be at the limit of fatigue to be able to produce this grenade. Even though the energy and exhaustion bar are in the same spot, you can keep your energy as much as possible as exhaustion allows you, said that, in the end you will have to get 75% or more exhaustion and energy less than 25%. The thing is, Sam will urinate blood under these conditions, so the grenade becomes stronger. Tip to get exhausted: walk a lot making deliveries and/or fight a lot, either with BTs or MULES;

Cargo per Grenade: 4;

EX Grenade number 2



Function: Deviates BT's focus. The place where you throw the grenade will get your scent, so the BT will start heading towards the spot;

Production: Eating cryptobionts and using the toilet while sitting (defecate);

Cargo per Grenade: 3;

Final Considerations

That's it, if you have any discrepancies in the amount of cargo per grenades, it's cause... somehow you did something different than I did, based on the numbers I received when I craft the grenades.

This Guide may, in the future, be changed to a bigger one, about grenades in General (lethal, non-lethal, hematic), but that's for another story, until then, i hope it was useful to you and if it wasn't, that at least served to satisfy curiosity (especially about grenade 1+, which Heartman says would be the perfect grenade).

See you later, Sams \o\

Ewww for the Ex 1+ This is a great guide though, I never knew that particular grenade existed since, even on very hard, depleting your stamina to that level is extremelly hard unless you never ever rest in a private room between main missions lol

[Panakamanana]

Didn't realise the last two existed, saw the blood ones in the Director's Cut trailer and was wondering if they're new, I never let Sam get that exhausted, interesting.

i don't know if this is a response to the person before me but its after the first rest when you go to the toilet in the morning

[A4cleaningshelf]

How can I get the EX 1+ grenades if sam automatically rests when I enter the private room before I can use the toilet?

[Kalium]

And, just for the record, when we start walking and fighting with the mules to eventually get the 1+, the gameplay start being better n funnier than it was before

[Deadeye Duncan]

Wow didn't know about the 1+. Time for some on foot laps of that race course.

I'd like thank u for the feedback and i'm glad that i could help you with the gameplay. It's easier to play against BTs when we know exactly which grenade to use and when to. I guess we are aways discovering something knew when it comes playing Death Stranding x) even small things

[ZinkyStinky]

thank you so much. I've been playing the original game for 500+ hours and i never understood how these grenades worked. i would just throw them on the BT and walk away. thank you for this knowledge.
