"The Vex use Slap Grenades to drive targets out into the open. These devices behave more like miniaturized gates than conventional explosives, channeling a Void energy pulse from a remote location."[1]

Slap Grenades are Void explosives employed by the Vex.

Overview

Slap Grenades are the secondary weapons of Vex Hobgoblins. These deadly snipers use their grenades to force foes out of cover, forcing them to choose between a deadly explosion or a Line Rifle bolt. The Slap Grenade takes a second to explode after impacting the ground and makes a very recognizable sound, so one should keep their ears open and dodge on this cue.

Some powerful Minotaurs can use this grenade as well. Some, such as Protheon, Modular Mind, even have access to an Arc variant of the Slap Grenade with a larger radius and a blinding effect.
