How to Use Stun Bombs

How to Use - Stun Bombs.jpg
Stun Bombs are one of the tools that you can make by crafting. You can use Stun Bombs mainly to create an opening for your attack, or when you are about to flee. Keep in mind that Stun Bombs are non-lethal, and can only stun enemies for a few seconds. It is ideal to use the Stun Bomb as a follow up from a Brick or a Bottle throw. This is an effective way to set up and lure the enemies together for a more efficient use of the Stun Bomb, because of its large area of effect.

Also, the Stun Bombs are less effective when used on tougher enemies. Enemies like Shamblers and Bloaters tend to recover faster, but can be staggered when they are about to use their special attack. Do not hesitate to stop their attacks by using a stun bomb if you have no other options.
