Trivia

  • Despite the common misconception M79 grenade does ballistic damage at any range, regardless if it exploded or dud.
  • M79 has the largest explosion radius of all launchers in game. Combined with Demolitionist's Fragmentation Rounds and Mad Bomber skills M79 grenade gets explosion radius of 8.5 x (1.5 + 0.25) = 14.875 meters.
