{{Quotation|'''The Demoman''' on problem solving.|'''KA-BOOM!'''|sound=Demoman_specialcompleted11.wav}}
 
  
The '''Grenade Launcher''' is a [[Primary]] weapon for the [[Demoman]]. It appears as a 6-round, break-action Grenade Launcher with adjustable weapon sights and wooden stock and foregrip.
+
{{Other uses|this=the Demoman's stock primary weapon|for=other grenade launchers|Grenade launcher (disambiguation)}}
  
Grenades launched by the weapon are [[projectiles]] and will arc significantly after being fired. The distance a round will travel therefore depends on the angle at which it was fired. When shooting long distances, though, it is often better to jump and fire than change the angle of fire much past 45 degrees. Grenades travel approximately 1065 [[Hammer unit]]s per second, around 45 miles per hour. The grenades will bounce on any surface, albeit very inelastically, and will only detonate on contact with enemies before the first bounce. Grenades will launch slightly to the right of the cross-hair, requiring players leading to the left to compensate; this is important especially when in close range with faster classes such as [[Scout]]s.  
+
{{Quotation|'''The Demoman'''|'''KA-BOOM!'''|sound=Demoman specialcompleted11.wav}}
  
Grenades are timed and will detonate after 2.3 seconds, assuming they do not detonate on impact with an enemy. Direct hits with grenades have very little splash range, and will only damage the Demoman if the enemy is face to face with him. On the other hand, grenades that detonate after the first bounce have more splash range, but do a lot less damage. Grenades have the advantage of never suffering from falloff damage; direct hits at long range will still do full damage.  There is a blast radius falloff, however, as the greater the distance from the epicenter of the blast, the less damage will be done, even for [[Critical hits]].  
+
The '''Grenade Launcher''' is the default [[Weapons#demomanprimary|primary weapon]] for the {{cl|Demoman}}. It is a stylized revolving, break-action {{botignore|grenade launcher}} with adjustable sights and a wooden stock and foregrip.  
  
Grenades can be used for a makeshift [[Jumping#Grenade Jumps|explosive jump]], yet this is a lot harder to accomplish than [[Jumping#Sticky jumps|sticky jumping]]. The explosion will not launch the Demoman far, but will deliver little damage and is practical for smaller heights and distances. Employing grenade jumps can be a viable tactic for Demoman who wish to preserve their [[stickybombs]], or have the [[Chargin' Targe]] equipped.  
+
The Grenade Launcher fires grenade [[projectiles]] (called '''Grenades''', also commonly known as '''Pills''' and '''Pipes''') with a team-colored [[Self-illumination|glow]] that travel at approximately 1216 [[Hammer unit]]s per second. Grenades bounce off of surfaces and are subject to gravity. They can be bounced around corners or rolled down slopes to attack enemies without needing line of sight.
  
==Damage==
+
The Grenade Launcher's projectiles [[Projectiles#Explosions|detonate]] either on direct contact with enemies or enemy [[buildings]], or when their fuse expires after approximately 2.3 seconds. However, after hitting any surface, grenades no longer explode on contact with enemies or buildings. Unlike most projectiles, grenades are not affected by damage falloff; as such, direct hits always deal 100 damage to their target at any range.
{{See also|Damage}}
 
*Base: 120
 
* Direct Hit:
 
** Any range: 81-111
 
*** [[Critical hit]]: 280-300
 
** Self damage: 42-73 damage (only from point blank range)
 
*** Critical hit: Deals same amount of self damage as a regular grenade (42-73)
 
  
* After Grenade Bounces:
+
Grenades can also be used for a makeshift [[Jumping#Grenade jump|explosive jump]], similarly to the [[Soldier]]'s [[Rocket Launcher]], albeit with less control due to grenades not exploding instantly on impact with floors or walls.
** Any range: 22-64
 
*** [[Critical hit]]: 190 (Splash at 3&nbsp;ft/1m: 100 Crit)
 
** Self damage: 25-64 (depending on how far you are from the explosion)
 
*** Critical hit: Deals same amount of self damage as a regular grenade (25-64)
 
  
''Note:'' Explosive damage varies depending on how it hits a player, the larger the classes hit box and the closer you are to the explosion the more damage you will take, the further away from the explosion the less damage you can take. Explosions do the most damage when they happen at the mid point of a player model, the explosion will cover more of the hit box and thus do the most damage. Damages are approximate and determined by community testing.

This article is about the Demoman's stock primary weapon. For other grenade launchers, see Grenade launcher (disambiguation).
KA-BOOM!
The Demoman

The Grenade Launcher is the default primary weapon for the Demoman. It is a stylized revolving, break-action grenade launcher with adjustable sights and a wooden stock and foregrip.

The Grenade Launcher fires grenade projectiles (called Grenades, also commonly known as Pills and Pipes) with a team-colored glow that travel at approximately 1216 Hammer units per second. Grenades bounce off of surfaces and are subject to gravity. They can be bounced around corners or rolled down slopes to attack enemies without needing line of sight.

The Grenade Launcher's projectiles detonate either on direct contact with enemies or enemy buildings, or when their fuse expires after approximately 2.3 seconds. However, after hitting any surface, grenades no longer explode on contact with enemies or buildings. Unlike most projectiles, grenades are not affected by damage falloff; as such, direct hits always deal 100 damage to their target at any range.

Grenades can also be used for a makeshift explosive jump, similarly to the Soldier's Rocket Launcher, albeit with less control due to grenades not exploding instantly on impact with floors or walls.
