How to Unlock Grenades in StarRupture
The first few hours of StarRupture can be pretty relaxing. You’ll gradually scale up your base to increase the amount of ores you’re extracting and tasks you can complete for the corporations all without really having to worry about enemies. However, once you begin to explore more of Arcadia-7, you’ll begin to encounter all manner of nasty creatures you need to kill, or otherwise risk being killed by. While some of them are pretty tame, when others you encounter later in the game begin to ambush you in larger groups, it can get pretty treacherous. That’s where grenades can come in handy in StarRupture. Unfortunately, though, you won’t have them available to you from the beginning of the game.
StarRupture Beginner Tips Guide
Master StarRupture with these essential beginner tips! From choosing your character to unlocking key technologies, we’ve got you covered.
Unlocking Grenades in StarRupture
To unlock grenades, you’ll need to reach level 3 with the Griffits Blue Corporation. Reaching level three requires you to complete two different requests or ‘tasks’ for them first. I’ve outlined how to complete each of these below.
Completing the Griffits Blue Corporation Titanium Bars Request
The first of these requires you to send them 200 Titanium Bars via an Orbital Cargo Launcher in your base. You can do this by connecting an Ore Extractor that’s placed on a titanium ore deposit, and using a rail to connect that to a smelter. Once you’ve done this, select the Titanium Bar recipe on the smelter, and then select the Griffits Blue Corporation’s request on your Orbital Cargo Launcher.
As long as you’ve got suitable power sources connected to each structure, you should begin to see the titanium blocks being sent to the launcher and your progress towards the task. When this request has been completed, you’ll unlock the pistol, and can move on to the next request.
Griffits Blue Corporation Titanium Rod & Wolfram Wire Request
The next Griffits Blue Corporation task requires you to submit Titanium Rods and Wolfram Wire. The process here is largely the same. You need to place ore extractors on Titanium and Wolfram ore deposits, and then connect these to smelters. These should then have rails leading to fabricators, where you can then select the Wolfram Wire and Titanium Rod recipes to be made with the bars that your smelters create. Once these have been created at your fabricator, use rails to guide them over to your Orbital Cargo Launchers. Then it’s simply a case of waiting for the required amounts to be sent off to the corporation.
If you have the basic building materials available, you can always create multiple production lines starting with an ore extractor and ending with an Orbital Cargo Launcher and have them all working towards completing the Griffits Blue Corporation tasks to speed up your progress. Otherwise, you’ll simply have to wait for it to finish.
When you’ve completed the task, you can go to your Corporate Terminal and redeem your level 3 rewards from the Griffits Blue Corporation, which nets you the grenade.
The grenade is charged by killing vermin and harvesting meteors. The grenade will automatically be equipped once you’ve claimed it, and can be selected by pressing G. It attracts vermin when it’s deployed.
