The antigrain warhead is a mortar shell that can be fired by using a mortar or used as material to make an IED antigrain warhead trap. It detonates in a 15-tile radius dealing 400 damage and causes fire. Said explosion might occur in your base if the warhead is damaged down to 20hp or is left to deteriorate to nothing. As with all mortar shells, it is heavily advised that you do not leave this in an area where it can deteriorate or come under fire, or you might find that large parts of your base no longer exist and you are missing a very rare item


Acquisition

The antigrain warhead can be obtained as a reward from World quests, or found inside an ancient shrine.

Usage

Antigrain warheads deal more than enough damage to one-shot most enemies in the game. This makes them utterly unmatched in siege defense, as they are capable of wiping out entire groups of raiders in a single blast.

Tougher, armored enemies such as the centipede are more than likely to survive a blast, but will be severely weakened such that finishing them off becomes much easier.

Installed as a trap, it can be extremely useful against crashed ship parts as doing so helps overcome the inaccuracy of mortars.
