Throwing grenades in Fallout 4 is a crucial combat skill that allows players to inflict significant damage and clear out enemies in close quarters or from a distance. Grenades can be thrown by pressing and holding the grenade hotkey (default: ‘G’) to equip a grenade, then releasing it to throw. By aiming the grenade’s trajectory with the mouse, players can accurately target enemies or specific areas.
Grenades offer several advantages in combat. Firstly, they can deal substantial explosive damage, making them effective against groups of enemies or heavily armored targets. Secondly, grenades can be thrown over obstacles or around corners, allowing players to engage enemies from concealed positions. Lastly, grenades can create distractions or flush out enemies from cover, providing tactical advantages in combat.
