Grenade

The grenade is one of many offensive gadgets available to Corvo Attano in Dishonored and Daud in the DLC, as well as Emily Kaldwin and Corvo in Dishonored 2. A metal shell packed with a thick tar made from whale oil, they are standard issue for Overseers. They can be "cooked" to shorten the fuse, and Corvo's and Daud's packs can be upgraded to carry more.

They are extremely useful against tough enemies, such as tallboys or large groups of City Watchmen. They are also one of the few offensive items effective against river krusts.

Grenades can be used along with supernatural abilities such as Bend Time and Windblast, allowing Corvo to reflect grenades thrown by enemies and to increase throwing distance, enabling long range kills.

Activated grenades thrown at Corvo by enemies can be picked up and thrown back. Killing an opponent in this fashion will unlock the Back Home achievement.
