You will quickly accumulate vast amounts of grenades - there's plenty to choose from!

Grenades are one of the two main additions to equipment (aside from wands), in the Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition. Grenades are best described as "throwable elemental arrows", as they have almost identical effects to arrows available to the ranger class - with some notable exceptions.

Grenades are available from the very beginning of the game - during the encounter with the two drunken guards on the bridge, you will be able to acquire one of those (or get hit by it, if you're not quick enough and if you start a fight with them). The only major difference between grenades and elemental arrows is the fact, that you can't retrieve them (there's no talent for that) - they are gone as soon as you throw them.

Grenades are best used by a character that lacks any long-distance attacks, as well as refrains from using spells in combat. The ideal choice is either a warrior, a paladin, or a rogue, basically classes that are fighting in melee range - grenades will help them to affect enemies with crowd control effects, as well as allow them to reach an annoying foe, hidden behind a firewall, or a poison cloud.

Grenades are easy to craft - components can be found throughout the world, hidden in containers. - Grenades | Combat - Combat - Divinity: Original Sin Game Guide
Grenades are easy to craft - components can be found throughout the world, hidden in containers.

Grenades can be found scattered around the world, often hidden in common places (like barrels, chests, boxes, desks, and so on). Additionally, enemies you fight during your journey can be carrying them as well - to acquire them from your foes, you have to defeat them before they are able to throw them (which often happens as soon as the fight starts). The last method is, of course, acquisition through crafting - details can be found in the "Crafting" section of this guide.

There's over a dozen of different grenades in the game, most of which deal a specific type of elemental damage, and almost every single one has an additional effect, such as stun, setting the target on fire, or even charm. Below you can find a table describing each and every grenade available in the game.
