Flashbang

The Flashbang in Rust is a non-lethal explosive grenade designed to temporarily blind and disorient players. Upon detonation, it emits a bright flash and a loud bang that impair the vision and hearing of anyone within its effective range. The Flashbang is ideal for disorienting opponents during raids or defensive maneuvers, giving players a tactical advantage in combat situations.

Constructed with simple materials, the Flashbang is accessible to players who have the necessary blueprint. When deployed, it has a short fuse time before activation, allowing players to throw it strategically. It is important to note that the Flashbang's effects are limited by line of sight and can be mitigated by looking away or taking cover, making timing and placement crucial for maximum effectiveness.

Experienced players can use the Flashbang to clear rooms, distract enemies, or create an opportunity to retreat. It is especially effective in confined spaces where enemies may have fewer places to hide from the flash. However, it's crucial to be aware of your own position to avoid being affected by your own Flashbang - practice makes perfect. Remember, the Flashbang is a consumable item and, once used, it cannot be recovered.
