Smokin' useful. |
Smoke Grenade is a grenade type weapon in BATTLEGROUNDS.
Currently, the smoke is client side, not server side. Smoke also cannot be seen from a certain distance, this means it's only useful during mid-range combat.
Summary
Smoke grenades are a throwable device packed with a mixture of potassium chlorate, lactose, and typically a dye for signalling. The chemicals mix with air to create a smoke screen that temporarily removes battlefield awareness.
