Vortex Shards and Vortex Cystsare rare items that players will want to value once acquired. TheLure grenade can be useful when fighting other enemies, as it will spawn a fairly powerful enemy that will not only damage those it can reach but also distract them and add some chaos in a fight you can take advantage of. The Charge grenade deals a decent amount of damage though it is the least flashy one to use in terms of particle effects, but deals good damage overall.
