Pipe Bomb

A makeshift explosive that packs a devastating punch. Perfect for when you need to cause destruction on a budget.

The Pipe Bomb is a throwable explosive weapon introduced in Grand Theft Auto Online. This homemade bomb delivers a powerful explosion, making it ideal for destroying Vehicles, causing chaos, and dealing damage in both PvE and PvP situations. Its simplistic design and high destructive power make it an effective choice for players looking to deal significant damage with a low-tech explosive device.

Design

The Pipe Bomb is a simple, homemade explosive crafted from a metal pipe filled with explosive material. Its basic design allows players to quickly throw the bomb to cause an immediate explosion. Though lacking the finesse of other explosives, its raw power makes it deadly in close-quarters combat and when used to ambush Vehicles or groups of enemies.

Performance

In GTA Online, the Pipe Bomb offers a strong explosive radius, capable of destroying Vehicles and dealing lethal damage to enemies within its blast radius. It is especially effective in crowd control, setting traps, or damaging armored Vehicles. However, players need to be cautious when using the Pipe Bomb in enclosed spaces, as its powerful explosion can easily backfire on the user if not handled carefully.

Customization

The Pipe Bomb cannot be customized, but its ability to deliver powerful explosions at a low cost makes it a valuable addition to any player’s arsenal, especially in scenarios where destructive power is prioritized over precision.

The Pipe Bomb can be obtained in Grand Theft Auto Online in the following ways:

• Available for purchase at Ammu-Nation after reaching a certain rank.
• Unlocked through specific Missions or in-game events that involve explosive weaponry.

• The Pipe Bomb was introduced in GTA Online as part of the “Bikers” update, reflecting its improvised nature.
• It is one of the few throwable explosives that can be crafted in real-life, giving it an authentic, gritty feel compared to higher-tech explosives.
• The Pipe Bomb’s explosion is highly damaging but has a shorter range compared to other explosives, requiring more precise placement or timing to use effectively.
• Due to its powerful blast, players often use Pipe Bombs to disable pursuing Vehicles or clear out heavily fortified positions.
• Its destructive power makes it a popular choice for both offensive attacks and ambush strategies in GTA Online’s PvP combat.
