The most powerful grenade currently in the game. Additionally, it is both the single most valuable item in [[Caves of Qud]] and the most valuable by weight.
The {{name}} is the most powerful explosive implement in {{gamename}}. Additionally, it is both the single most valuable item and the most valuable by weight.


The {{name}} deals 10 million [[explosive]] force when it detonates, dealing {{Heart}}{{dice tooltip|40000+2d6}} damage to everything caught inside.
The {{name}} causes 10 million [[explosive|explosive force]] when it detonates, dealing up to a total of {{Heart}}{{dice tooltip|40000+2d6}} damage to everything caught inside. Due to the nature of explosions, the actual damage caused to individual objects and creatures will vary considerably depending on environmental factors.
 
== Safe Use ==
There are several ways to safely detonate a {{name}}, or at least to greatly increase the chances that you will be safe when detonating it:
* Use a {{favilink|grenade launcher}} to fire it across the screen.
** Make ''<u>extra</u>'' sure you're going to hit something - it's best to fire toward a segment of wall or a large group of enemies. The grenade launcher's aim isn't perfect and if you don't hit a target, the nuke can fly completely off screen and disappear without detonating at all (this is true for any grenade launched from the {{favilink|grenade launcher}}).
* Use tinkering to [[Item Mods|mod]] the grenade to be [[phase-conjugate]]. Then, phase out before throwing it. The grenade will phase back in before detonating, and will not harm you because you are still phased.
** If you don't  have the [[Phasing]] mutation, you can still do this by [[Phasing-based_cooking_effects|cooking a meal that grants phasing]].
* Use the [[Lay Mine / Set Bomb]] skill to set the {{name}} as a bomb. Then, use whatever items or abilities you can to increase your [[quickness]], [[move speed]], or [[sprint]] speed so that you can run for cover before it explodes.
 
== Visual Demo ==
Here is an example of a {{name}} explosion.

== Damage Extent ==
The explosion of the {{name}} can also destroy objects in adjacent zones.
 
In the demo GIF above, the zone one screen north was also severely damaged:
