How to get it
East Old Town, Water Mill (the "Waterwheel Weapon" marked treasure): propped on the table opposite the door. The door takes the Iron Insignia Key (from the castle piano). Grab it on the way into ch08, when the Vârcolac loses sight of you; the SE crate has Explosive Rounds ×2 and the NE window sill a Lockpick. If you leave it, the Duke sells it from the factory.
Verdict
Carry it: its blasts can't hurt you and Flashbangs stun crowds, the Uriaș Drac and Sturm.
Switch round type with aim + interact. Its blasts don't hurt you and its Flashbangs don't stun you.
- Flashbang: stuns Lycan packs (10+ s; 1–2 s on Village of Shadows), the Uriaș Drac and Sturm; cancels Miranda's darkness. It doesn't work on a large Lycan wearing a helmet until you shoot the helmet off.
- Explosive Rounds: interrupt Moreau's acid spit, knock the Vârcolac Alfa down when it leaps and make Uriaș stumble in the Stronghold.
- Recipe: Explosive Rounds and Recipe: Flashbangs (3,000 Lei each, Altar after House Beneviento, ch07; one source puts them in NG+): 1 Gunpowder + 1 Metal Scrap + 1 Herb = 2 Explosive Rounds; 1 Chem Fluid + 1 Rusted Scrap + 1 Herb = 2 Flashbangs.
- Placed Flashbangs: Submerged Bank ×2, Moreau's Laboratory well ×3, Trap Chamber ×2, Riverbank Cave Camp ×1, factory Operating Room ×2.
On NG+, if you already own it, the chest pays 20,000 Lei. Mercenaries ("II" stages): 6-round magazine and fast reload. Fire in the Hole challenge: 50 grenade-launcher kills (14,000 CP).
