The G-7 Pineapple is part of the Dust Devils Premium Warbond (launching September 4). Don't let its funny name fool you—this grenade is anything but sweet. It's a cluster frag that scatters mini-explosives after detonation, turning swarms of bugs into absolute chunks.
If you've been looking for a grenade that can handle hordes of Terminids in tight spaces, this is the one to keep handy.

If you want to speed things up and skip some of the grind, you can buy Helldivers 2 Medals to unlock the G-7 Pineapple earlier and start tossing those cluster frags without delay.
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Type | Throwable Grenade |
| Effect | Explodes into cluster frags after initial blast |
| Strength | Clears swarms, wide AoE |
| Weakness | Friendly fire risk, less effective on armored units |
| Best Use | Tight tunnels, swarm control, choke points |
The grenade shines when Terminids pack together. Toss it into swarm funnels, cave chokepoints, or nest entrances for maximum carnage.
The blast radius is big. Make sure you throw from behind cover or at a safe distance—you don't want to be the one getting shredded.
Combining Pineapple clusters with incendiary weapons (like the AR-2 Coyote) or gas clouds (from the S-11 Speargun) creates deadly layered damage zones.
Save Pineapples for multiple enemies. Against a lone Charger or Bile Spewer, use direct damage weapons instead.
| Grenade | Damage Type | Blast Radius | Special Feature | Best Use Case | Drawback |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| G-7 Pineapple | Explosive / Cluster | Large | Splits into multiple mini-frags after detonation | Clearing swarms, tunnels, defense points | High friendly-fire risk, not great vs armor |
| Frag Grenade (Standard) | Explosive | Medium | Simple but reliable detonation | General-purpose, versatile in all missions | Smaller AoE compared to Pineapple |
| Incendiary Grenade | Fire / DoT | Medium | Ignites enemies + terrain | Area denial, choke point control | Weaker initial damage, takes time to kill |
| Impact Grenade | Explosive | Small | Detonates on impact with enemy/ground | Fast, precise strikes | Very limited radius, poor against large swarms |
| Smoke Grenade | Utility | Medium | Creates vision cover and bug confusion | Escaping, stealth objectives | No direct damage |
Takeaway:
The G-7 Pineapple is one of the most fun grenades in Helldivers 2. It's chaotic, devastating, and ridiculously satisfying when a cluster blast tears through a crowd. Just remember—it's as dangerous to you as it is to the bugs, so use it smart.
Recap: Unlock via Dust Devils Warbond → Throw into swarms → Keep safe distance → Pair with fire/gas for combo damage.
