Continue ShoppingIn Arc Raiders, the Trigger 'Nade is a utility grenade built for control and timing. It sticks to surfaces or ARC units and detonates only when you trigger it. This makes it useful for ambushes, traps, and planned fights rather than quick reactions.
The Trigger 'Nade is a remote-detonated explosive. After throwing it, you decide when it explodes. It can stick to walls, floors, or enemies, giving you more control than standard grenades.
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| Rarity | Rare |
| Type | Quick Use (Grenade) |
| Damage | 90 |
| Explosion Radius | 7.5 m |
| Weight | 0.4 |
| Stack Size | 3 |
| Sell Price | 1,000 Coins |
These stats make it strong enough to punish grouped enemies, while still light enough to carry alongside other utility items.
There are two known ways to gain access to the Trigger 'Nade.
Most players eventually rely on the blueprint rather than scavenging, especially if they use explosives often.
After unlocking the blueprint, the Trigger 'Nade can be crafted at the Explosives Station.
| Recipe | Workshop | Result | Blueprint Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 × Crude Explosives 1 × Processor | Explosives Station (Level 2) | 1 × Trigger 'Nade | Yes |
Crafting ensures a steady supply and avoids relying on random drops.
For players who want steady access without relying on luck or quest timing, some choose to buy Arc Raiders Trigger 'Nade blueprints from U4N. It’s an option that can save time if you already know explosives fit your playstyle and you’d rather focus on raids and crafting instead of repeated scavenging.
There is no guaranteed or fixed spawn location for the Trigger 'Nade blueprint. Instead, it drops through normal gameplay as loot.
The blueprint can appear in high-tier loot containers, including:
These containers have a higher chance to drop blueprints than common loot sources. Checking multiple high-value containers per raid improves your chances over time.
Some grenade blueprints, including Trigger 'Nade, may be obtained through quests or mission rewards.
If a quest mentions explosives, grenades, or blueprint rewards, it's worth completing. Quest rewards are often more reliable than pure scavenging because they bypass random drop chances.
Always review your active missions to see if any reward a blueprint directly.
Blueprint drops are random. Even in the best loot areas, there is no guarantee that a specific container will drop the Trigger 'Nade blueprint.
Because of this:
Once you find and learn the blueprint:
After crafting, Trigger 'Nades are added to your usable equipment and can be brought into raids.
Trigger 'Nades are best used with planning rather than quick throws.
Common uses include:
Because detonation is manual, timing matters. Wait until enemies are fully within range before triggering the explosion.
They are effective in PvE situations and can also be used against other players, though balance changes may affect their performance over time.
If you no longer need a Trigger 'Nade, it can be broken down for materials.
| Action | Materials Gained |
|---|---|
| Recycling | 1 × Chemicals 1 × Processor |
| Salvaging | 1 × Processor |
This makes unused grenades useful for recovering key crafting components.
The Trigger 'Nade works best when you can plan ahead.
It is less effective in fast, chaotic fights where instant explosions are needed.
