Flashbang
Not built to kill, just to blind and stun long enough for whatever comes next. The Flashbang is less about damage and more about buying yourself a few seconds nobody sees coming.
Combat Performance
Dark tick marks the Weapons class average
Fire Modes: Thrown, non-lethal
About This Weapon
Based on the M84 stun grenade, the Flashbang doesn’t kill, it disorients. Toss one into a room and whoever’s inside gets a few seconds of blindness and ringing ears, more than enough time to close the gap or make an exit.
Special Features
Barely does any direct damage, its value comes from disorienting enemies rather than dropping them
Useful for breaching rooms or vehicles without alerting everyone nearby the way gunfire would
Works well paired with a quieter weapon, since it buys a short window to move in or finish a fight before targets recover
One of the few thrown items in GTA VI built around tactics instead of destruction, closer to a stealth tool than a weapon
