Grenade

Use of explosives is nothing new. The Chinese had gunpower centuries before Europe and the Greeks had their own form of napalm.

The grenade is a small, handheld bomb that is thrown at enemies once it has been primed. In Pirates of the Caribbean Online, the pirate can use grenades to attack multiple enemies at once.

Game Note:Thorwing a grenade at your feet does considerable damage so if your enemies get too close use your melee weapons to cut them down
