'''Tox grenades''' are a ranged [[weapon]] added by the [[Biotech DLC]] that spreads [[tox gas]] rather than directly doing damage.

== Acquisition ==
Tox grenades can be crafted at a [[{{P|Production Facility 1}}]] once the [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] research project has been completed. They require {{Required Resources}}, {{Ticks|{{P|Work To Make}}}} of work, but require no [[Crafting]] levels to create.

== Summary ==
[[File:Tox grenade blast.png|thumb|left|325px|AOE and max range of tox grenades. Grenades land within the yellow area. Blue area is the expected gas explosion. Actual gas distribution can vary.]]
Tox grenades are weapons. They take up the weapon slot and will not run out of ammo. Grenades are blocked by walls, but the blast ignores cover. When choosing a target, a circular zone will generate to indicate range, then another 3x3 indicator with a circular center will become the aiming spot.

They create [[tox gas]]. Tox grenades are thrown and once landed, grenades have a ? tick delay before exploding. [[Skills#Shooting|Shooting]] skill, [[shooting accuracy]], and health of the grenadier are irrelevant due to the Forced Miss Radius. [[Aiming time]] effects still apply, however.

== Analysis ==
[[File:Tox grenade launcher comparison.png|thumb|left|300px|"Average" gas created when tox weapons are fired constantly outside. <br>Left: Tox grenades. Right: [[Toxbomb launcher]] (normal)]]
Compared to [[toxbomb launcher]]s, tox grenades have a higher average firerate, leading to greater amounts of gas. However, they have shorter range, and due to the grenade's delay, it takes longer for the ''first'' shot to create gas. This makes the launcher relatively better as a in-field support weapon, and grenades for your gas-related kill tunnels.
