In the thrilling world of *R.E.P.O.*, where battling monsters is your daily grind, certain items can give you a significant edge. Among these, the Human Grenade stands out, but finding and using it effectively can be a challenge. Here's your guide to unlocking and maximizing the potential of the Human Grenade in *R.E.P.O.*.
Where to Find the Human Grenade in R.E.P.O.
Unlike other items in *R.E.P.O.*, the Human Grenade isn't just lying around. It's tucked away in the Secret Shop, a place you can only access between rounds, sparing you from battling Clowns and other creatures to get there.
To reach the Secret Shop, you need to complete the first round and return to the Service Station. While stocking up on supplies, look for the ceiling tile near the Health Packs. This is your gateway to the Secret Shop, but accessing it in solo mode isn't straightforward. You'll need specific items to make your way through after removing the tile:
- Feather Drone
- Zero Gravity Drone
- Shockwave Mine
Some players have tried stacking objects in the Service Station to reach the shop, but this method can be cumbersome. It's best to save up and invest in one of the above items.
If you're playing with friends, getting into the Secret Shop becomes much easier. One player can minimize themselves while another guides them in, using a cart or another item as a stepping stone.
Once inside the Secret Shop, you can purchase the Human Grenade for $2,000. Don't forget to check out the Duct Tape Grenade, which combines multiple Human Grenades, while you're there.

How to Use the Human Grenade in R.E.P.O.
The Human Grenade is a unique throwable in *R.E.P.O.* with a range of about 10 meters, shorter than the Stun and Shock Grenades. What sets it apart from regular grenades is its ability to damage both players and monsters. So, after throwing one, make sure to move out of the blast radius quickly.
Although the Human Grenade might seem like an upgrade, it's the Duct Tape Grenade that really steals the show in the Secret Shop, offering greater destructive power. Consider this when deciding what to add to your arsenal, as the monsters won't go easy on you if you're equipped with less effective explosives.
