Stun Grenade - How to use

body image

While using Stun Grenades in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege may seem easy, it requires skill to maximize the impact of this gadget.

To get the best out of Stun Grenades, you should understand how the gadget bounces from walls and door frames.

Stun Grenades detonate two seconds after their first bounce. This gives the defender time to look or run away from their position.

Flashing Enemies

As you can't kill with Stun Grenades, you have to play around with how they can affect the enemy's sight and its position. When you throw a Stun Grenade, the defender will be forced to move, which means it will be exposed.

Moreover, making the defender blind with the Stun Grenades will put you in a better position. When you have used the Stun Grenades, you can push the enemy and get an easy kill!

Burning Utility

However, you can use Stun Grenades in other ways. Another use for Stun Grenades is to burn Jäger's ADSs, Wamai's Magneto Disks, or to open Aruni's Gates.

Jäger

Jäger is the best counter to Stun Grenades and other throwable gadgets. His ADSs will burn any thrown device from the attackers.

Wamai

Like Jäger's gadget, Wamai's Magneto Disks will intercept any projectile or gadget thrown at you.

Warden

Warden's special glasses protect him from any kind of flash, including Ying's Candelas and Blitz's Shield. If you hate Stun Grenades, Warden is your operator!
