Tactical Information

  • The G-23 Stun notably does not affect Automaton Tanks and Factory Striders, nor Impalers and Bile Titans.
  • The stunning effect lasts for five seconds, during which time the affected enemies will not move at all. The grenade will also interrupt any attack the enemy is performing.
    • Helldivers can take advantage of this by exploiting an enemy's weak spots or using offensive Stratagems.
  • As this grenade deals no damage, it cannot destroy structures such as Bug Holes or Automaton Fabricators.
  • The radius is 10 meters, meaning its area of effect is almost 50% larger than the standard explosive grenades.
  • If Helldivers are caught in the range of a Stun grenade blast, their stamina will be immediately depleted. The SH-32 Shield Generator Pack can negate this effect for as long as it is active.
